This video shows what I call yoyo loaches (almora loach or Pakistani loach, Botia almorhae), they are great scavengers, they will push gravel around to get to the uneaten food that is missed by the other fish.
I am happy to answer any questions and also happy to hear any suggestions you may have.
Yoyo loaches grow fairly slow and sometimes it's hard to tell if they have grown at all.
Once every 2nd day I feed them blood worms, brine shrimp or mysis and all other times a good quality mix of foods. I feed all my fish 2-3 times each day but small amounts, then one day every week I don't feed anything at all. But thats me
The only way that I can tell that mine have grown is from watching videos or pictures I have taken in the past.
I have had 2 yoyo loaches for about 6 months now. They have barely grown and I feed them good scavenger food and they're very healthy and active. The loaches are still pretty small(about 2 inches). Do you have any clue why? P.S. I am positive they're yoyo loaches.
