I was wondering if I could house Kuhli loaches and Reed Rope fish together.

Now for some reason I think this is a bad idea that will not work. But I wouldn't mind seeing it happen if its possible.

Thnaks
 
the last kuhli loach i had was a little tiny thing, i think the rope fish would eat it
 
Yeah me too, if the rope could catch it I'd think it would be toast.
 
Alright, thats fine I guess. I will just need to stick to my previous list for my 55g

10 Sterbas Corys
6 Kuhli Loaches
2 Angel Fish
1 Gold Gourami
1 Red Tail Black Shark
1 Eel (smaller kind)

Maybe more........
 
what kind of eel is that? many eels would probably still be able to eat the kuhli loaches

I'm looking to get a spiny eel. I'm pretty sure its the only kind I can get that won't eat anybody.
 
I can't say from personal experience, but a full grown TT or fire eel might mistaken a kuhli for a worm due to the size discrepancy
 
The tank is a 55g so I doubt he'll get a tire track or a fire eel. If you have a choice between a zigzag or peacock (these are two of the smallest eels) I'd get the zigzag.

Yeah, defenatly not getting a TT or a Fire Eel. THose get huge ;)

I know I have seen Peacocks around but never the Zigzag. So I'm going to ask the pet store owner to see if he can get any in. Right now I'm doing research on them.
 
watch the red tail shark they arent very nice with gouramis and angels, just my 2 cents.
