Loaches

Loaches are active bottom dwelling scavengers ideally suited for the community aquarium. Loach fish consist of some of the most popular of all tropical fish, adding color, interest, and beauty to any larger community aquarium. Loaches are semi-aggressive fish when housed in the aquarium individually, so it is important to maintain each species in groups of six or more to minimize aggression.
