Kuhli Loach

[folyet]

I purchased 3 Kuhli loaches 4 days ago. One was found dead today. I have not seen the other 2
How can I feed them if they do not even show themselves?

Any advise would be appreciated

They are loaches, they graze the gravel/sand for left over food.

You don't have to see them for them to eat the flakes you put in.

I really don't think one died due to not being fed though, you should really check your water out.

Thanks for the response
The water tests are all good...ammonia nitrates, nitrites, all at the very lowest levels as shown by my test kit...

I do my water changes every week, and change approx 15% of the water...
