Looking great with the beard cory. I enjoy watching your videos. I just bought like a few loaches (zebra and kuhli I guess) today and they’re cute AF! They just bounced around then hid under the plants. The rasboras were checking them out. But they zipped around and hid away aprt from a few checking out the place. Realised that I made a good decision to not buy the teeny shrimps for my community tank.

I also now have 6 gold zebra loaches and a rescue peppered loach that I can not find any friends and I feel terrible about (gold dojos in a 60, zebras and peppered in a 20. If I find more peppered loaches I’ll probably upgrade that tank to a 30-40, though they can both fit in 20 gallons)

I have half of your list - I’m a loach nerd! My favorite is the Sewellia, and my favorite Botiiad type loach is the Zebra. For you beginners out there, the Zebra is the best first loach. Modest size, active, silly, and an absolute angel... until they see a snail. Then they are homicidal maniacs. Such an incredibly varied and fun group of fishes. Everyone should try them.

I did that with a golden dojo loach, and it has been my only impulse buy. Guy told me it was a tropical, solitary-yet friendly, and can live in a 10 gallon. All very wrong. Now I’ve got a 60 gallon with a shoal of various sized (even a deformed one, and one with a back injury and a missed dorsal fin that will not grow back), it’s cold, got goldfish, danios, a bristlenose, and apple snails.

I have two Dojo Loaches in my community tank, 78 degrees. Perhaps they're not schooling fish, but these two get along great. They'll swim and play together, and like to lay beside each other to rest and "nap". They get along great with the other fish, non-aggressive but curious. They'll try to use their tentacles to nuzzle other fish, and the other other fish are always like, 'No, go away." LOL. Because of their size, a smaller fish might nudge them to get out of their way (usually when the loaches are still and resting on something), and they always oblige with no fuss. Fun to watch them swim around. They're like fish vacuum cleaners. I've never seen pellets disappear so fast. I give the pellets a good spread throughout the aquarium to allow the other fish to get some.

I have 2 albino weather loaches. They adore each other. They get along well with my other fish and the cory often plays with and rests next to them. The other fish rather trip out a bit with their interactions. They often break up aggression by other fish by quickly darting by. It's so funny to watch. The betta is completely bemused by their antics. I have a pretty peaceful tank overall. The ones that get aggressive go after their own species. I had an agressive platy (Mickey Mouse) and he and a few friends now have a new tank to themselves. One of them in particular was fin nipping everyone in the tank. Looking forward to getting a ten gallon so I can put him in a bigger tank and use my smallest as a hospital tank.

I used to have a pair of dojo loaches and they were by far my favourite fish! They have such goofy, derpy personalities. I found out very quickly that they loved eating any snail I tried to add to the tank haha. They were social, and they would start going nuts in the tank when there was a storm coming, just zipping up and down like rockets. I can't wait to get a new tank so I can get a couple more of those guys (but they are getting super hard to find in my area now. Lots of kuhli loaches, but dojos are much harder to find).

I've had hillstream loaches before, currently own 6 golden dojos and 8 striped kuhlis, and in future hoping to get rosy loaches. My dojos include a big 8 inch fish named Tubby Tim, a 2.5 inch deformed fish that's almost same size girth but named Stubs, and a very skinny 5 inch fish with severe tuberculosis named Noodle. My kuhlis live with Noodle in a 20 gallon so she gets fed, other dojos have full run (swim?) of a 75 gallon.

With all the decades I have kept aquariums, I have never kept clown loaches. They are a great looking fish but, I primarily kept Malawi cichlids and/or planted tanks. Like you said, they can be hard on plants and I don’t think they would fair well in the hard water or aggressive nature of a Malawi tank. I didn’t even know they got bigger than 5 inches or so until II started watching your channel. Always good to learn something new.

I've got a personal love for skunk loaches, I haven't seen them in years though. I grew up with one because a family member didn't want it after it kept killing her guppies, the little dude lived for about 19 years with only having an issue with neon tetras. But yeah loaches are really cool fish.

I have dojo loaches, but lost one today due to him jumping out of my tank by jumping into the filter. Extremely upsetting. I have a lid and everything, but there was a little gap in the filter that I just hadn't thought about. I would like to get another one, as he was the mate to my female wild type, but I may wait until I set up their bigger tank. I still have my other 4, 1 wild, 3 goldens, and I love them so much. I hand feed them every single day and they're so used to me I can pet them and they squiggle around my fingers. Dojos and bettas are my absolute favorite fish.

I bought 8 kuhli loaches in my heavily planted 70gallon. They are always out on the gravel where food lands. They like to chill together on the gravel, they did hide when I got them but only for 3 days. I know sand is best for them, Im going to rescape my aquarium, only the planted area is going to be gravel.

My favorite loach is tied between the golden zebra loach or my sumatran loaches. Neither are common but they are worth searching for, they both have tons of personality!

My clown loach just died. It was about 29 years old. Very sad. Would make clicking sounds in the morning when it wanted to be fed and splash water on me if I didn't feed it immediately. Had it's own "bedroom " in lower left corner of tank underneath rocks and driftwood.

I worked at a pet shop for a time many years ago, and when we would break down display tanks, there would be about a hundred kuhli loaches in the under-gravel filters. As for picking a single fish out of a huge school, I once spotted a Callichthys in a swarm of Hoplos. A couple of months later, different shop, I saw another Callichthys in a similar school. The first I bought was a female, she grew to be about five inches, and when I brought the three-quarter-inch male home and he hit the water, he immediately started working up a bubble nest, like he was saying "LET'S PARTY!".

I have to add a caveat to the Dojo portion: It depends on temperament of the individual fish as to whether or not your plants will be messed with. Mine will loach the hell out of select rooting plants and leave the rest alone. It's like one day I will look in the tank and half of the greenery is floating. Leroy has been busy.
