lmsmith Posted August 30, 2008 Report Share Posted August 30, 2008 I like theses little guys and was wondering how much they usually cost as I haven't seen any in stores - or maybe I haven't been looking. I haven't been able to find much information about breeding - are they easy to breed in aquariums? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lmsmith Posted August 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2008 Thanks for your replies guys. How hardy are they? And what do they eat - are they likely to eat cory fry (3weeks +)?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dixon1990 Posted August 30, 2008 Report Share Posted August 30, 2008 They would eat cory fry that are smaller than about 5-8mm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southerrrngirrl Posted August 31, 2008 Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 For those of you that do have khuli loaches, do you have a fine gravel/sand substrate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purplecatfish Posted August 31, 2008 Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 fine gravel (3-5mm max size) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron-Betta Posted August 31, 2008 Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 I have a pair in a tank to clean up the bloodworms my fighters dont eat. Cool fish, not keen on the light though. Mine are in a dark tank with black substrate. Have seen some bury themselves in some substrates but mine must be a little too sharp for them. They're about 8cm long at the moment. Seen the female full with green eggs at times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virgil Posted August 31, 2008 Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 its great now trying to spot them, they swam straight to the back of the tank initially but now have spotted a couple near the front under some stones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BK Posted August 31, 2008 Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 1 of mine is twice as fat as the others, any one known how to spawn her? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
