🐟 Kuhli Loach Pangio kuhlii
Eel-Like Body • Peaceful Bottom Dweller • Community Safe
 
📋 The Kuhli Loach is a slender, eel-like freshwater fish with alternating dark brown and yellow bands. A peaceful and nocturnal bottom dweller, it spends most of its time burrowing in the substrate and hiding among plants or driftwood.
Kuhli Loaches are best kept in groups of 5 or more and make excellent community tank members, as they are shy but non-aggressive. They thrive in soft, slightly acidic water with plenty of hiding spots.
Their unique appearance and playful behavior make them a favorite for aquarists seeking unusual but peaceful fish.
