Sorry Truck but a Kuhli Loach is from the Loach family and not Characin.

Not being a pain but it's not a cyprinid either, it's from the Loach family.
You are right in saying that they are best in a group with 3 being the minimum.

well our species index must be wrong then

siamese algea eaters these arent shoaling yet are cyprinids

SAEs are very active, peaceful fish that do best in schools but they may be kept in pairs.

 

[foley69]

yea PAIRS not shoaling fish can you imagine a tank with between 6-10 of these full grown ey would be all hell broke loose

IMO i dont think they are shoaling fish

i wouldnt know from experience as i have never kept them. but the info quoted was taken from our species index, and i found it on numerous other sites too.

and a quick google search reveals that loaches are cyprinids

 

[foley69]

they are so to speak but really should be given their own species and is that all you do get info off google and put it in your own words as advice any way ant got time for childish disputes i have my gorgeous new block head cichlid to watch
