New Pair of Weather Loaches

[littlewolfpaw]

I just bought a pair of weather loaches, there both small yet, Id say about four inches or so. The bigger one is dark colored and the light colored one is just a whisker hair smaller. Well the darker one has a one spot on its nose, It looks like a scuff but im worried it could possibly be ick. heres some pics of both of them. one pic showed up as link, its down there though, its a pic of the light colored loach

nice pickup, never heard much about those loaches, any idea why they call them weather loaches ?

The story is is that when a storm is on its way they act like a living berometer. They get really active just before the weather hits. I used to have one and didnt really notice any change when a storm came, im hoping these ones will react, i think it would be kinda cool ^-^
