Jessica Springer –
These loaches are very active and add a lot of visual interest to the tank. I kept them in a 55-gallon tank with a group of five. They thrive in the warm water and seem to enjoy the environment. Regular water changes and stable pH help maintain their health.
Trevor Hunter –
The fish are colorful and lively. I had to upgrade my tank size after a few months as they grew quickly. I now have a 75-gallon tank and they are doing well in the group setting.
Donna Henderson –
Great addition to my freshwater setup. They are easy to care for once the water parameters are stable. I keep them in a group and they swim together in a coordinated way, which is very entertaining to watch.
