Hi, and welcome to loaches online :D

would you be able to show us any photos? that would be ideal. or if not, then can you give us a more detailed description. it might help to say what other fish are in the tank (it could have been an injurt caused by tank mates) and details of the tank. what size is it? what substrate do you have, and what type of decor? what are your readings for nitrate, nitrite and ammonia? how often do you hoover the gravel/sand?
