	Loach question
Mr Fish Addict Posts: 573 Kudos: 304 Votes: 0 Registered: 17-Jul-2003	I have a 29gal and I have 2 yoyo loaches and 1 redtailed zebra loach. They are all full grown. They get along except for the female yoyo loach cases the male alot. What is the best thing to do?

Loaches are happiest in groups of at least three, but more is always better. Adding more yoyos would mean that your pushy female would have other loaches to interact with, and not just that one male. If you can, go ahead and add a couple of the red-tailed zebras, too. As I've already said, loaches like more loaches. And when he gets to Heaven, to Saint Peter he will tell: "One more Marine reporting, Sir! I've served my time in Hell."
