Hello loach lovers! I have a new pipe dream: a pit greenhouse for raisng fish, plants, salamanders, and aquatic invertebrates. My main goal is to breed certain salamanders and North American stream fishes that enjoy a winter cooldown. Temps in the greenhouse will range from the upper 30s F in winter to the low 70s F in summer. I can of course use heaters to raise individual tank temps a few degrees above the ambient if necessary.
Which loaches are likely to thrive and possiby breed in these conditions? Besides dojos, anyways.
Thanks!
Nathan

Upper 30s F = 2-4 C. I don't intend to freeze my fishies!
Thanks for the suggestions. I will probably avoid Misgurnus, as they are invasive over here and several states have banned them already, but I like the Cobitis and Barbatula species. If I can find them here in the US I will definitely try them!
