Loaches Online Forum

i just got 2 of what i belive to be redspot loaches. the guy at the LFs Had no idea what they were. they were in the plant tank. but looking at pic's on line this is what i belive they are.

now the tank id like to put them in has 4 little (about 2") striped kuhlies. will they bother my kuhlies?


from what ive read they can be a bit territorial.

this says that they Usually peaceful towards non-Schistura species of fish
but i have no idea what Schistura species of fish is lol

any advice?

thanks

The problem is probably more that kuhlis and Schistura's require vastly different conditions to thrive. Schisturas like high water flow, kuhlis don't. Check the specs in the LOL species list.
