I have to wait until tank-darkness time when I can switch on the blue light and see any two of my (I think) five kuhlies come out to play. They used to come out when the lights were on but now they have found their preferred hiding places I hardly ever see them let alone get them on video.

and no names dont tend to name my fish but if you want to name them what do you guys think ??

 

[KrazyKuhli]

How many did you get?

In order to name them, you have to be able to distinguish them from on another. Usually by different stripe patterns, as all kuhlis have unique stripe patterns. Its easier than you think, since I'm able to do it! Then, you need to be able tell if its male or female. Females are genrally thicker bodied than males, and sometimes have a green tint near their tail.
Then, just name them as you see fit! I name my loaches into matching pairs, with names starting with "L"...Leo and Lily are a couple, and the new loach (either Luke or Loki, still haven't decided) and his girlfriend will be named Luna
