So, I recently started keeping fish. I purchased a kuhli loach impulsively (this was a mistake I know this). I'm doing what I can to provide him the best care possible. I only have the resources for a 10 gallon tank. I'm getting mixed advice, but I've heard kuhli loaches can do alright in a 10g. The tank also has 3 molly fish (1 male, 2 females) and a mystery snail. This is also not by own desire but the mollies had nowhere else to go so I took them in. The tank also has a moss ball and aquatic plants I just added. Substrate is a mix of fine sand and gravel. The thing is I understand loaches don't do to great by their lonesome and do better with at least one other of the same species. I plan to upgrade the tank drastically once I'm able to which will be a year at the most. I'm wondering will 2 kuhli loaches be able to thrive under these conditions or should I just hope the one I have does alright by himself until I can upgrade (to hopefully a 40-60 gallon). The last thing I want is to overpopulate. I've added pictures to get a better look at the tank. I know I'm also probably making tons of mistakes so any advice would be amazing, I'm open to criticism so I can do better just please be kind. Thank you in advance!
