Hey, I'm new here, but here is a photo of my gold dojo loach. This is the coolest fish I have ever had. She has a lot of personality, I always tell people it's like having a cat or a dog in your aquarium. Very active and does not get spooked easily, will nibble on your fingers and eat from your hand. Loves to swim around in the bubbles from the airstone, it's very cool to watch! Very awesome species, I will always keep these in my tanks from now on. Here she is resting on the back of the heater...

i love my golden dojo loach. he's about 4 inches long now. he is very interesting to watch since he does a lot of silly things.

as soon as my driftwood finishes curing and I can get it in my tank and arrange my plants around it how I want, i WILL be buying a dojo loach. they look awesome and seem to have a great personality.



do you get any aggression from him at all towards other fish? I have cory cats always on the bottom and I am scared it might bother them.

No aggression whatsoever. I have a big pleco on the bottom and the loach doesn't bother it at all.

I'd love to see others gold dojo loaches, post some pics if you got em!

Can't say I have ever seen dojo loaches for sale in Australia, but if I did I reckon they would be a must have in my tanks. Great looking fish :good: . Mind you I have a slight loach addiction :rolleyes: .

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that I recommend keeping these in at least pairs, they love to swim and "play" together. Here is a video of mine...
