3bristlenose adults
2killifish possibly maybe more

but will the kuhli loach eat bristlenose fry ?
or will they eat the eggs like try and get in the cave ?

well the male should protect the eggs aggressively and will scare the the khulis off but with amount i would say atleast 6 but considering you have 3 bn in your tank im not sure but it may be 6 ask crossfire she will know

Someone said my name?

Kuhli loaches are extremely peaceful, and I don't believe they will actually chase down and hunt the BN fry....they didn't eat my guppy fry.
If the male BN stays guard over the eggs, the kuhlis will mind him and stay away, they're not dumb. How big is the tank?

Kuhlis are bottom feeders, and bottom feeders are scavengers. You every see a cory going after other fish 'cause hes hungry? :lol: Unless the fry is dead, the loach won't bother them, my amano shrimp once walked on and over my loach and it just didnt care! :fun:


You could easily have 6 loaches in there.
