I bought this loach for my 55-gallon tank. It’s active and not aggressive. I feed it a mix of flakes and frozen brine shrimp weekly. It seems healthy and happy.

The fish is very hardy and adapts quickly to the tank environment. I’ve noticed it swims in circles and plays with the decorations, which is entertaining to watch.
