Kuhlii Loach - Sumatra Pangio kuhlii The Kuhli Loach is a popular addition to any peaceful aquarium. They are inquisitive and active fish, often found at the bottom of the tank where they swim about with eachother. They also are known for scavenging on pest snails, making them a great addition for your cleanup crew. The Kuhli Loach prefers to live in schools as they are quite sociable with others and reach a maximum size of roughly 4 inches so because of this, a minimum tank size is recommended to be 20 gallons. The tank should have plenty of hiding spots on the bottom of the tank for the Kuhli Loach to hide inside of. Ideally you won't want to house them with other fish that can outcompete them for food, especially so with other bottom dwelling fish. Kuhli Loaches are omnivores and should be fed a balanced diet of meat and vegetable-based foods such as high-quality sinking pellets, live or frozen brine shrimp, blanched vegetables secured to a feeder clip.
Clown Loach Chromobotia macracanthus Clown loaches are a fun addition to any peaceful tank. While they shy away from bright open spaces of the aquarium, they exhibit playful personalities amongst their school of other Clown Loaches while they peruse around your tank. They may be prone to aggression if kept in smaller groups or by themselves, so it is recommended to keep them in bigger groups. The Clown Loach can grow to nearly one foot in length, so while they may be great for a smaller sized aquarium now, they are more suited for larger tanks of at least 75-100 gallons. They do best when fed multiple times throughout the day, taking high-quality flakes, pellets, frozen food, live food, and vegetables like blanched zucchini and cucumber.
