Khuli Loaches

[showjyr]

Got 2 Khuli loaches yesterday and put them in a 10 gal tank with my Endlers for now. One is doing fine and has made an old shell his home but the other spends a lot of time out in the open and is very easily scared which sends him shooting around the tank. He also seems to be breathing very heavily. He was partially stuck to the filter intake at one point but as soon as i touched him he was off like a bullet. Should i be worried about loosing him?

I also plan on getting 2 or 3 more if the answer to this question is yes. Would it be safe (for the shrimp) if i moved them into my 30 gal cherry tank in the near future? There are so many hiding places and plants i think they would love it but i don't want to risk loosing any baby shrimp.

They should be fine in the larger tank. And they will certainly like a few more of their own. Are they black or striped kuhlis? I only ask bc the black ones tend to be more outgoing.

They are the black and yellow striped ones. Wish they got bigger i would put them in my 55 gal community but my BGK loves worms and they look pretty much like a small colorful worm.

PS. Found him dead this morn
