In my adult tank I have another 20 baby BN, and my skunk loaches should eat the baby BN, but no one bothers them, and I don't see their nummbers going down. The other adult BN do not bother them either. I have a Betta too, and he's been leaving them alone. I try to feed these guys well. It is hard with the adults, but everyone shares the cucumbers. I also tried french cut string beans, but so far no one recognizes that as food.

Good luck with your BN. Do you have homes for yours? Look for local aquarium clubs.
