LOACHES ROCK!!!!!!

[FishGeek]

I have fallen in love with my loaches (3 Polk-dot Botias and 3 Queen Loaches)!!!! Has anyone else fallen in love with Loaches? When I first got my Botias I figured that they would be a pretty fish that I would see every once in a while on the bottom of the tank. But I got one and then two and three. And then I thought why not try another Loach and see if I like that one. Well, needless to say I did. Anywayz, I shared. Thanks for listening (...or should I say reading...). *thumbsup2 *thumbsup2

I've got 9 kuhli loaches... so I guess most people assume I love them (which I do, they're so neat). I'd love to try yoyo loaches, but I don't have room .

Yeah, we're loach fans too, we have (or have had): Clowns, skunks, orange fins, dojo/weathers, kubotais, batiks, yoyos, hillstreams and hoping to get some eel loaches soon. Not all are botia, but they're all adorable

I have a 'thing' for loaches myself. Currently I have Yo-Yo loaches (Botia almorhae), a couple of Botia kubotai, a couple of Sinibotia robusta, a small group of Dwarf Loaches (Botia sidthimunki), Batik Loaches (Noemacheilus triangularis), a trio of Schistura sp. aff. vinciguerre, a couple of Schistura sp. aff. nicholsi (those darned Schistura loaches are tough to identify as to precise species), and a very pretty Vaillantella maassi.

i fell in love with the cute little horas loach wen i saw it at my lfs but i couldnt have any because my tank is just right now

 

[phOOey]

well i've only ever had clown loaches, but i must admit that there very loveable

 

[Cutlass]

It's easy to get hooked

 

[OrientBlue330ci]

I've had 2 yo-yo loaches..

1 has still survived...

He is quite possibly my favorite aquatic pet.

Loaches are loaded with personality and they are an attractive looking fish, which is why so many people love them. I love my loaches, I've got 4 clown loaches, 4 polkadot loaches, 4 zipper loaches, 4 kuhli loaches, and 4 batik loaches.

I adore loaches especially khuli loaches.They are difficult to find in my area [western new york]. The lfs say they are easier to catch in the fall [?] to try then. They are more visable in the tank when you have 3 or more.

 

[NoDeltaH2O]

Loaches are cool.

My all around favorite kind of fish.

 

[Toam]

Loaches are definitely loaded with personality. I love my loaches, my favorite ones were my two clown loaches, but I just lost them recently to an unfortunate accident. I still have two golden dojo's which I love and I also have two horseface loaches, I'm planning on getting some new clown loaches, but I'm waiting for another tank to put them in.

heck yes loaches are great i have various kinds

 

[Eric35]

I have a yoyo loach and a dojo loach! I loove em.

 

[hyunelan2]

Some day I'm gonna have a tank big enough to acommodate full-grown clown loaches. Those fish are the reason I wanted to start keeping fish, but I've never had any . I'm going to need some new bottom feeders in the 46g - any loach recommendations for a planted tropical community, that won't interfere with my Rainbows (shouldn't be an issue).

I love loaches, they can cheer anyone up with their antics. Love my zebras, little small loaches that are active, playful and peaceful-cant recommend them enough!!!
