A longtime hobby favorite, the Kuhli Loach (Pangio kuhlii) is deservedly popular due to its unusual eel-like shape and active, social nature. In the wild, they are found in a wide range of habitats, from peat swamps to shallow stretches of large river and can be found in Thailand, Malaysia, and Indonesia. In the wild, they usually inhabit soft, slightly acidic water with a fine sand or mud substrate and in areas with ample leaf litter and other cover and during the day are usually found burrowed in or close to the substrate. In the aquarium, they are hardy fish but prefer plenty of cover and will be most active and happiest in groups of 5 or more.

Two longtime aquarium hobby favorites, the Yo Yo Loach and Clown loach have successfully been crossbred and are now available to hobbyists. Like most loaches, they are a social fish, and are best kept in a group of at least 5 fish. Hardy, active, and attractively patterned, they are generally peaceful toward most tankmates and make for excellent snail control in a planted or aquascaped aquarium (so should not be kept with snails or any small invertebrates).

The Queen Botia or Queen Loach is a strikingly marked, medium-growing species which inhabits the clear hill streams of Bangladesh and Northeastern India. In the wild, this loach is typically found in loose schools over rocky substrate in areas of moderate to strong current. Like most of the Botias and Loaches, it is a social fish which forms complex social hierarchies and should be kept in groups of at least 5 in the aquarium. Although fast moving and aggressive feeders, the Queen Botia is generally peaceful towards tankmates too large to be eaten and will do well with other medium-sized active tankmates like many barb and danio species.

A longtime aquarium hobby favorite, the Yo Yo Loach is so named for the intricate pattern found on juvenile fish which appears to spell out the word “yo yo” along its sides. Also known as the Lohachata Botia or the Pakistani Loach, the species originates from streams in India, Bangladesh, and possibly Nepal, although wild specimens are rarely exported. Like most loaches, it is a social fish, and requires a group of at least 5 fish to thrive in captivity. A hardy, active, and attractively patterned species, they are generally peaceful toward most tankmates and make for excellent snail control in a planted or aquascaped aquarium (so should not be kept with snails or any small invertebrates).
