Fish Crazy
I have successfully been able to keep three Kuhli Loaches with my African Cichlids without them suffering any sort of harm. In fact, the most aggressive of the Cichlids which sometimes chases the others around has, in fact, begun to treat the Loaches as his own by guarding them from all of the other fish. This seems odd to me, as I have not been able to keep any other bottom feeders--be they catfish or plecos--with my Cichlids without them getting beat up. I have also heard of someone who was able to keep a Kuhli Loach with a Knife Fish. Both the Loach and the Knife would stay in the same cave and when the Knife was fed goldfish, the Loach would actually eat bits of goldfish from its mouth. Just what precisely is it about Kuhli Loaches that seems to keep other fish from ever bothering them?
= Cyprinid.
