What Kind Of Loaches Have You Kept?

[CrashingWaves]

Clown Loaches are obviously the most talked about loaches on fish keeping forums, followed closely by Kuhli loaches. So I was wondering what kind of loaches everybody is keeping now, and has kept in the past? Here's my list:

Clown Loach
Kuhli Loach
Burmese Border Loach
Skunk Loach
Zipper Loach
Batik Loach
Chinese Hillstream Loach
Yoyo Loach

I've got :

Red Tailed Blue Loaches x2 (Yasuhikotakia modesta)

Laos Tiger Loaches x2

Khuli Loach (black variety) x6

Zebra Loach x4

and Shistura sp (labeled in LFS as Red Fin Banded Loach) x2

I did have 4 yoyo loach but they never thrived in my tank and died one by one so I did not replace them, all other fish were fine so I think they just never settled in.

My Laos have trippled in size since I bought them 3 months ago (they were just about 1" then), My Zebras are definitely on the tubby side, the Shistura sp. are very active, the Khulis are playful, they love riding in my bubble from the airstone and so far the Blues are fairly shy but I know I need at least 2 more of them really.

I've never run into red tailed blue loaches, though I've always wanted to. Nice fish you have though .
