Burmese Loaches!

[RobD23]

these things are the cutest in the world...i have four of them, is it possible to breed these little buggers....i would like to breed them if i can....does anyone know how to do this?

[fishnutham]

dont know for sure if it can be done i 've read it cant be done in captivity and some had it happen by accident i would research theyre habitats and try to recreate the ideal situation
on that not the same was said about zebra plecs a few years back know theres a lot of people doing it..

Which ones, there are at least three sold as burmese loaches, a striped botia, a spotted botia, and a striped schistura.

Just clone them, it's probably easier.

Loaches are near impossible to breed in captivity. However, in Thailand and China they inject them with carp hormones to force them to breed. Or so I have heard.
