Overview
Size
These fish range from 1 to 3 inches in length.
Recommended Tank Parameters
- pH level range: 6.5 to 7.5
- Temperature range: 68 to 75 degrees Fahrenheit
- Water type: kH 10-15
- Notes from the owner:
- It's best to use sand or fine gravel as substrate in an aquarium with loaches and other types of bottom-dwellers. Other types of substrate may have sharp edges that can be abrasive to the fish as they swim along the bottom of the tank.
- All hillstream loaches thrive best in schools of three fish or more.
- It is also important to provide plenty of hiding and resting places for these fish, which can be provided by driftwood and sturdy plants.
- Hillstream loaches require especially clean water, so we recommend weekly water changes of about 30%.
Feeding
Hillstream loaches are omnivores and grazers, so they will feed on algae and biofilm in your tank. They also like to eat most kinds of live foods, such as insect larvae, tubifex, daphnia, and frozen or live brine shrimp. They will also eat fish flakes or pellets, as well as algae wafers.
Your patience and understanding are very much appreciated. Thank you!
