Kuhli Loaches! Help!

[jameshughes1989]

Hey, Monday I bought 3 khuli loaches to go into my 20 gal. All was well for the 1st day but then no sign of them. I read that they are more active if in a group so I bought 3 more today and these new guys seem to be okay. Not hiding or anything.

Now the problem is, could the original 3 be hiding under the gravel or may of something more sinister of happend? Any ideas would be great.

Water stats are fine and they are in the tank on the own (filtered and heated).

Thanks

Yeah i know, and I have seen them at night now and its still only the new ones. Dont know if they are dead or alive

i'm sure they are alive. the tank i bought came with khulie loaches. probably about 10-15. but i put piranhas in the tank and haven't really seen the loaches since. until the other day i was doing a really good tank cleak and lifted everything up and saw at least 5 still. so they hid pretty good. i've had the tank for almost a month now. so i'd imagine yours are good. although i did have one get sucked up into my ac 110. but it was fine so i just put it back in the tank.
