I was just wondering how "round/fat" Kuhli Loaches get. I got 3 tonight and they are about 2 inches long and about as "fat" as a thicker sewing needle. I'm fine with whatever size they are I was just wondering how much growing they have to do or if they are full grown. They are living in the 10g with the Platies (2 adults and 2 fry). If they got big enough I'd like to move them to my 20g but I'm afraid my BA Tetras might have them for lunch right now.

I also got a Dojo Loach too, hes pretty cool. He lives in the 20g with the BA Tetras. He's gobs bigger than the Kuhlis of course.

There are a lot of really similar species of kuhli loaches, most get to about 4". They shouldn't get too round, they'll probably stay the same proportion but a little bigger. My biggest is 4" and about the size of a pen, just a little taller.
