Hi,

A reply a bit too late but hope you'll read it.

1. On point one: Kuhli loaches are shy. If they're together with other very active eaters, they may starve unless you take measures

2. On point two: My Khuli loaches are 8 years old now in pH of 7.4 water, quite hard. I think I am late on the acclimating part. My advise is drip acclimation in a dark covered bucket, if bringing in fish from very different conditions. Do not wave bags in the tank, too bad for the fish. However, if they have travelled a lot, best is plop and drop, don't acclimate. Kuhlis are really tough fish but no fish should stay in toxic water for any extended time period, it will kill them, although not outright but in months time from diseases due to weakened immune system from ammonia exposure.
