Hi,

im looking for a loach or similar that is not shy and is orange and black in colouration. need to be peaceful and fit into a 180l tank. I already have 7 kuhli, but would like something that I will see more often.

thanks. x

Sterbai Cories have dark grey speckles and orange fins? Not always the cheapest of fish though.

There are also other cory species which are totally orange in colour, but again not the cheapest.

Palespotted are nice but will set you back a good £10-£15 Then of course you have Corydoras sp. Neon Orange Laser which unlucky to you we sold our last 5 about a month ago, they do not stick around long.

Flying Foxes are soooo cool, they clean everything! Love them!

Of course, if you got more kuhlis you'd probably see more of them

I agree wholeheartedly, stocking a tank that allows 10-20 Kuhlis to live together, with a multitude of small pvc pipes spread across the tank floor would almost certainly transform their confidence levels.
