Skunk Loach

[Carlovel1]

Are Skunk loach compatible with Angelfish, corydoras, rainbow shark, kribensis,neon tetra And yoyo loach?
Websites say that they are aggressive but one website says that their not? HELP

They are aggresive and will get too big for your tank which is already over full

And we're back in ignoring advice territory. Loach need to be in groups.

Skunk Loaches can be aggressive and nippy, so certainly wouldn't keep them with Angels.

skunk botias are the spawn of satan and in no way shape or form a 'community' fish.
they are truly best kept in a species only tank or in a tank with conspecifics.

Lol Wolf, thought I was the only one who thought that way about them!

In one website, it said one or atleast five will be fine.

I've thoght about it and im gonna go with Zebra Loach instead. Infactt Im gonna buy four to keep my Pakistani/YoYo loach company

 

[stang1]

I'm sure I read somewhere about not keeping different species of Loach together because of territory/aggression issues. I might be wrong but it's worth checking out befre you buy some.
