Kuhli loaches are a native fish of Malaysia and Indonesia. They are naturally found in slightly acidic, soft waters, and are available in the aquarium trade. These loaches are classified as fish, due to their distinct pelvic fins. This article covers some of the most important aspects of keeping and feeding kuhli loaches. Read on for more information. Listed below are some of the most important considerations when choosing black kuhli loaches for your aquarium.<\/p>\n
To keep kuhli loaches, keep them in a group of at least three other fish. They are relatively small, but they can grow up to four inches long. They should be kept in a tank with good filtration, with a substrate that is sand-based. If you’d like to keep kuhli loaches in a group with clown pleco fish, there are a few things to consider.<\/p>\n
First, you’ll want to provide them with clean, pristine water. You should also provide them with a high-quality diet that they can eat for a week. The best food for kuhli loaches is live food, and they can also eat frozen foods. Kuhli loaches don’t need gravel substrate, but they will likely be happier in a tank that has a rock or gravel substrate.<\/p>\n
To breed Kuhli loaches, choose a tank that is about 10 gallons, with a height of 15-20cm. Water pH should be around six, and the tank should be kept at a temperature between eighty degrees Fahrenheit. A female Kuhli loach should be paired with a male. If you decide to breed your kuhli loaches, keep in mind that it will take them years to mature.<\/p>\n
Kuhli Loaches prefer to live in a group of five or more. Since they are shy, a tank that is larger than this is likely to be too small for the species. But if you can keep more than five, a thirty-gallons tank will be just fine for you and your kuhli loaches. They are small and do not produce a lot of waste, so the tank should be large enough for your new companions.<\/p>\n
Black kuhli loaches are similar to the standard kuhli loach in size and temperament, but their color is different. They are also known as java loaches and are sometimes better known as Pangio oblonga. You can find them at pet stores or online. You should not feed them too often. But if you want them to stay healthy, try to feed them twice a day.<\/p>\n
