The Zebra Loach will scavenge the bottom of the aquarium looking for leftover food. They are easy to care for, fun to observe and have a unique pattern. They're active and energetic with distinct personalities, which makes them an excellent addition to large community tanks. They can be semi aggressive towards other fish, but multiple loaches can be added to one aquarium. Their adult size is larger than the cory cat, so be sure the aquarium is large enough. They are more active at night than during the day but are still more active during the day than most members of the loach family. The Zebra Loach is considered a "scale-less fish," which means they can be more susceptible to diseases like Ich. Provide an environment with lots of caves and hiding places for this loach to sleep in.

ACCLIMATION: Allow the sealed bag with your new fish to float in your aquarium for at least 15 minutes (but no longer than one hour) to ensure the water in the bag matches the temperature in your aquarium. For new aquariums, adding new fish slowly helps to properly develop the nitrogen cycle, which creates a safe environment for your aquatic pets. A bacteria booster may also help develop a new aquarium for your new fish. Petco offers free water testing in store to determine if your water is safe. DIET: A well-balanced diet consists of a variety of flakes, pellets, freeze-dried, and frozen food, depending on the species. FEEDING: Feed sparingly and no more than fish can eat in 1-2 minutes. Overfeeding can quickly foul the water, especially in smaller, unfiltered aquariums.

Recently one of my Dojo Loaches have developed a weird issue with its eyes. I have 3 others who are doing completely fine. My water parameters are based around what they need and the temp too. I did a water change as well to see if that would help but havent seen any progress and I believe it is getting worse. I'm going to quarantine it for now. What could be this be? I'm struggleing to find a specific answer for this. I attached pictures of the sick loach and one of my healthy ones.
I got 3 zebra danios and 2 leopard danios at petco and in about a day of having them one died. the next day another dies with a strange white spot growing on it. it was not like cotton through which I hear is a disease. my tank is a 20 gallon and before I introduced the new danios I had 3 pearl danios and 2 plecos and the were doing very well and seemed to be in perfect health. well one of my pearl danios died after the new fish came to no obvious elements. and now my 2 plecos died.the same way
Hi, I had a bettas fish and a clown pleco. A day after doing a complete cleaning of the tank, my better fish died and my pleco started acting weird. I tested the water. Ph 7, ammonia 0, nitrate 0, nitrite 0. He is not eating, his skin started to look like white, like shedding? And now is like coming off. Also, his belly is bloated. I attached pictures.
I dont know if you are a tropical fish specialist. But there is something going on in my tank and need help diagnosing it. My corydora has two raised growths ..one at the base of its fin. And one under the eye. My pleco seems a bit tattered too. A little flashing was happening with my yoyo loach also. That's now stopped after a water change.
I have two male fish that I'm not sure of the breed there names are Ben(Benny) and Rosco can u please help
Hi, I bought 6 platy fish and a black corydora catfish about 2 weeks ago, all seem in good health bright colours and swimming round as normal they are in a 48l tank which the pet store said was a big enough tank for them all, but one of them seems to be loosing his scales or I’m afraid he may have itch but it dosent look like it I hope you can help,thanks.

Hi there, I'm not sure if this website applies to fish, but I don't have anyone in my area that can help. I have a gold nugget pleco and he eats veggies and driftwood all the time, has a large 55 gallon tank to himself and he has normal catfish habits-sleep during day, up at night. Anyways he was a beautiful black and gold but now his colour is fading... I looked it up and it means death (but he's eating and still very alive...). Is there anything you know about why else the colour could go?
