-
Tank Size: Provide a tank of at least 20 gallons for a group of Kuhli Loaches, as they are social and thrive in numbers.
-

-
Filtration: Use gentle filtration to ensure good water quality and oxygenation. Kuhli Loaches prefer slow-moving water and are sensitive to strong currents.
-
Aquascape: Decorate the tank with plenty of hiding spots such as PVC pipes, caves, driftwood, and live or silk plants. Provide a sandy substrate to mimic their natural habitat.
-
Tank Mates: Kuhli Loaches are peaceful and can be kept with other small, non-aggressive fish that share similar water parameters.
-
Diet: They are omnivores and accept a diet of high-quality sinking pellets, live or frozen foods like bloodworms and brine shrimp, and occasional vegetable matter.
