Hi 2 weeks ago I added 4 kuhli loach to my 30 gallon tank. I know they are nocturnal but I've only seen 2 out and about and worried they aren't feeding?
Should I have bought more? And any tips on feeding would be appreciated
 
I've has some for 3 years, and have never seen them eat, yet they are all fat and happy, when ever I do get to view them, which has never been at feeding time, as long as your tank is cycled, and your water is good, they seem to thrive without our intervention

Thank you
The tanks been running for 12 years and my water is good.
As long as I know they aren't going hungry then I'm OK.
 
4 is a small group. Add way more and you'll see them out more! And, more hiding places. The more places they have to hide the more they feel safe coming out because they know there's shelter nearby. Super light bioload, so don't be too afraid to add more. I'd go for a minimum of 10. You'll see them more active and feeling secure with numbers.

(I totally don't have 21+ of the noodles 😝 )
 
The only way to have a good look at them, is in a soup bowl. '

They disappear in 3 gallons.

But they are watching you all the time.
