Stunning in planted tanks
Peaceful community fish
Kuhli Loaches (Pangio kuhlii) are peaceful eel-like bottom dwellers that spend much of the day under cover and become more active during feeding and lower-light periods.
They are social, prefer soft substrate, and need secure hiding places and a tight lid.
Care Notes
Provide fine sand, multiple hiding places, and a secure lid. Feed direct sinking foods after lights dim.
Large or predatory fish that may eat a 3–4 inch loach
Aggressive bottom-dwelling fish competing for hiding spots

Common Questions
Kuhli Loach FAQ
How many Kuhli Loaches should I keep?+
Keep at least 4–6. They are social and usually become more visible in a proper group.
Are Kuhli Loaches shrimp-safe?+
Adults are generally compatible with larger shrimp, but shrimplets and very small invertebrates may be opportunistically eaten.
How are Kuhli Loaches shipped?+
Fish ship Monday through Wednesday via Overnight / Next Day Air and typically arrive Tuesday through Thursday in insulated packaging with weather-appropriate protection.
Do Kuhli Loaches need sand?+
Fine sand or another smooth substrate is preferred because they forage and burrow along the bottom.
Do Kuhli Loaches need a lid?+
Yes. They can squeeze through surprisingly small openings, so use a secure lid.

Live plants give nano fish cover, reduce stress, and create a more natural aquarium. They help break up sightlines, provide shelter for shy fish, and support a healthier planted tank.
