I have kept Kuhli Loachs on different occasions. Each time I get them I think they will be an interesting fish to have in the tank, but every time I am disappointed. They find themselves a place to hide, usually under a log and will remain there most of the time. The few times I get to see them is if they decide to come out for feeding when the tank light is off or when I shine the torch light under the log.
I would personally not keep them again as I feel they do not contribute to the tank. Of course I could just be having bad luck with them.
Good Points:
- Their appearance is different to most fish
- Suitable for community tanks
- Peaceful
- Scavengers
- Hardy
Bad Points
- Nocturnal
- Tend to hide under objects
- Dig themselves into sand
Score
