For the most part loaches do not breed in captivity. As far as I know Yoyos don't breed in captivity without hormonal injections.

If you are referring to African cichlids, they do not make good companions for most loaches. A few south American cichlids will work okay.

If you want to keep African cichlids and loaches set up two tanks.
