Iwas sold these from a pet store as khuli loaches,

Not a very clear picture for identifacation, I think they could be weather loaches.

Thanks in advance

In another pet store today and was told they were called naked khuli loaches

Common names vary from place to place and are frequently made up on the spot. "Naked" is often used for scaleless fish, but since all loaches are scaleless, it doesn't really add to the picture, unless the shop figures it has a titilation value.
