My striata Loachswarm photos.

Post by Alaskancorydoras » Wed Jul 29, 2009 7:00 pm

This is my new 55 gallon loach/platy/rainbowfish tank. I happened across the Striata loaches at a local store mislabeled as green tigers for $3.5 At that price I couldn't resist buying out their stock of 14 fish.

The log in the picture is real wood, which is why the water is yellow/pinkish from the tannins. The photo is also of the bald-spot in the plants in the tank, most of the rest of the tank has a good start on its plants.

The pleco in the log would be (no longer) Inappropriately Frightened. He's about 7" and likes that tank MUCH better than his last tank.

Nice loaches! I think I'd probably buy those on impulse too.

Yeah, but they don't say Yoyo on the side!

So there are some Striata loaches (labeled as botia lochata) at the local PetCo. . . in the UNHEATED GOLDFISH TANK.

Friend of mine yelled at the manager.
