Yo-Yo Loaches (Pakistani Loaches)

[mrp3]

Just wanna know really anything about yo-yo loaches. What they eat. Group size. Minimum tank. Ph. Temp. If they'll work in my setup. Thanks!

their pretty much like clown loaches mate altho their a bit more active. shoal of 5 or more but then if you only had a 150 litre tank 3 would do well but best of in 5 or more. their pretty hardy fish so adapt well but prefer soft acidic water their pH should be around 6-7. they like a well planted tank. cant really be kept with aggressive fish as their softies. they seem to follow my mate across his tank when he slowly walks past. very odd. can live for years around 18 if not more. they eat flakes, frozen brine shrimp and pellets. they seem to play dead too. they lie on their sides on rocks for ages then just jump up like an alarm clock has gone off.

ops i'll answer your other question now lol 24-27 celcius or 75 to 80 farenheit. i would say your tank is a bit small only being 130 litres UK or 110 litres US to keep 5 but its probably best to see what other replies you get first mate as thats a bit of a guessestimate.
