beautiful loaches, they are huge! can't wait till mine are that big. the dark gravel/back ground is what makes them dark like that right?

Thanks...they are all doing great, except for one. Doesnt feed as much as the rest and as in one of the photos above, there is one which is quite skinny. Done the parasites treatment and antibiotics but still no improvement or further weight loss.

Btw, they have a weird eating habit, all of them hunt down live ghost shrimps and crush them like snails.. :shock:

Ditto to all of the above. I love the way they sit side by side on the bottom viewing the world pass by (or perhaps just waiting for the next feeding :D )!
Why does my aquarium always seem too small?

Great shots of great fish. This may seem an odd thing to say but they all look so strong.
