Full Tour of Rob's Tanks! ua-cam.com/video/x6vx873wdjo/v-deo.html
There are two kinds of loaches, the ones Rob has and the ones Rob doesn't have 😂. That's cool about the Yoyo loach name/pattern. Great stuff Rob👍
Haha very true Jose, we need your breeding help to make a true YOLO loach
And tiger loaches
Find you a person who smiles talking about you as that guy smiles talking about his loaches
Very true
My tiger botia loaches have so much personality! When the lights go out, they play and have some sort of bony feature that makes a snapping sound when they "fight". Tiger botia are great with aggressive cichlids.
I love loaches and other bottom feeder when I go to the store I always look for new weird bottom feeders right now I have 1 Golden dojo loach 1 sumo loach 1 peppered loach and 1 horse face loach my other favorite oddballs I have are my pair of Rhinogobious leavelli
Nice! You’ve got quite the loach collection
Loaches are my favorite fish also. Best personality. Clowns are my favorite!!!
Can’t disagree, Clown loaches are awesome
I wish I had the room for a tank full of clown loaches but I'm happy with the group of yoyo's I've got as a 2nd choice!
Who doesn't love loathes?!???
I mean loaches lol
I love the tanks in the back ground. The loaches are so beautiful. Thank you the education on loaches. I do have a yoyo loach. She is ruffly 5in. She is just about to turn a year.
My kinda guy. I belong to Loach fanatics on facebook and IG and i purchased two loach books from Eric Bodrock, written by Mark J Duffill who is well versed in Loaches and internationally known.
I’ll share that name with Rob, thanks Diva!! I’ll tell him about the group if he isn’t already in it too
Great interview!!! I only counted 6 bands on the 8 banded loach, he should get his money back. LOL Well done Ryan!!!!
Atleast 25% back!
Great video.
My fishroom currently has 7 tanks with 13 species of loaches and gobies. I love all rheophilic species and find them fascinating. And much like Rob, I also started this fishroom with guppies and have a few strains going in the fishroom as well and in rooftop tubs.
Great to see another person giving the the old loaches a good go!!
I'm a loach lover , I have 7 species.. I know that the loach specialist is Emma Turner!!! I'm not sure but I do believe she's from the UK and was a contributor to loaches.com
Awesome I’ll let him know if he doesn’t see this himself. Also just a heads up, next collecting video we checked the ph 😉
My 6 yoyo loaches love strong waterflow. I installed a wavemaker and they always hang out there 100%. They live with a very friendly non agressive male convict chichlid
Dojo loaches are my favorite
My first love was catfish..and then I discovered loaches. Now, I only keep loaches :) Nothing rare, just clowns, yoyo's, gold zebras, zebras, horseface, peppered, silver, redtail, queen, tiger, sand, skunks, sumo, and red eye gold dojos along with banded and chocolate kuhlis. Plus one loach that I dont have a clue what he's supposed to be LOL.
Would like some hill stream. Currently housing 3 dojo in my out door pond and 4 khulis inside the house👍🏽👌🏽
Those Boesemanis are huge!
Sweeeeeeeeet its Robs place!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great video...I'm a lover of kuhli loaches.....thanks for the video 👍👍
I really loved this video and it really inspired me. I currently have 2 yo-yo loaches in my personal aquarium and my dad has 2 clown loaches in his 300 gallon aquarium.
Sound like some awesome tanks!
I placed an order with The Wet Spot and needed to spend an extra $10 or so for a Cyber Monday deal. They had one piece of a Blyth's Loach left at around $12 so I added it. The good-This fish is swimming front and center at all times. Very active and fun to watch. The bad-He's an assbeater, even of some tough customers as I keep catfish and cichlids. If he continues to pick on my larger Altums, Uaru Fernandezyepezi and TR Synodontis granulosus, he's going bye-bye as those fish are my babies.
Love my clown and hillstream loaches. Cool video.
Rob has great taste. I’ve never heard of the sumos before. Great interview
Loach lovers unite!thanks you have gorgeous tank mates also.
They’ve got a really cool pattern and color
Never have seen the sumo loach! Just ordered some from a seller local here in California. But super excited to get some. I just love loaches. I’ve had yo-yo and khuli’s of course in the past and currently now. Really enjoyed this video, and the guests love for Loaches.
Idk, I saw them yoyo loaches out a bit. They where right up there with the zipper loaches.
Watching this video all the way thru nice presentation, I just got a group of clown loaches they're very interesting playfull and entertaining. 👍
Same here man, they’re grown on me a ton since I’ve had them past few months. Mine are still babies but enjoy watching them grown
Great stuff! Keep up the awesome content.
Thanks Matt!
Thanks for the highlight video of my loach stars, I always have fun yapping with you about this crazy fish obsession.
Appreciate you always taking shop with me, glad they all came out to play for he most part. Looking forward to our next collecting trip!
Rob you are a walking talking HIGH LIGHT REAL
Great Video, these are some cool loaches
Glad you enjoyed Paul, looking forward to Monday
I enjoy your content. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for checking it out Joseph! Love your collecting videos and the stuff you have going on in your fish studio
very cool
banded loaches are so cool
I used to have 2 Indian zipper loaches and 2 zodiac loaches they are my favorites....
Loaches are so cool, great video!
i just got some cory's
@@ARTOFDUNKS I have 2 kinds of corys, lots of eggs & babies! Corys are one of my fav, sleep together, play together, love them!
I love loaches!
They’re awesome
Jaguar Loach are awesome
I saw a weather loach last week. I wanted it but it didn't match the set-up I have. It was really cool looking.
Clown Loach like dimly lit water they come from murky bottom river water and 12 hours of darkness per day.
I've never owned a Yoyo before, and I find my little guy to be a curious and entertaining fish. It was constantly side by side with my Corrie, but I think it was a little much and the Corrie stays out of his way now. One odd thing, the Yoyo has taken to spending a few seconds every hour or so furiously digging into the corners of the tank. I think he is hunting the snails, but I'm not sure.
Nice
I actually have one of these
A rare loach collector? Cool. I hear if you give them lots of fish they live a long time.
I have 2 in a 55 looking to get 3 for my 75
I like loaches but i tend to want each type of fish in my aquarium to have its specific niche like in the wild , so for example for the top-mid water fish i keep zebra danios , and for the bottom dwellers i keep kuhli loaches , i dont add any other scavenger in the tank because they would compete for the same food and i don't add any other top-mid water fish either , but i do keep Malaysian trumpet snails because they help with keeping the glass clean and they aerate the plant roots .
Wow never knew they are that many loaches out there. Love the video
Me neither haha, tons and tons more too!
Wild Fish Tanks yea I see that’s awesome
Are you danny gonzalaz lol?
I subbed anyways
Jack English yes
Great video. Will loaches school with other loaches?? I have 2 Queens, 2 yo-yo, 1 Tiger & 3 clowns. Clowns seem to stick together but will the others chill across the varieties or will they also create silos??? Thx
My obsession is Otocinclus catfish
ivegot 2 panda loaches and im looking foward to get kuhli and hllstream
My wife was like you and that guy would be big buddies. I think I have 7 different loaches and put them in as many different tanks as I can. The one I love he doesn’t have is Dwarf Chain Loach. I have 9 in a 40 breeder. Love them. I want some Zipper Loaches and going to try to get some of the golden Zebra Loaches I see listed at Petco.
I have 6 types of loaches in my 75 gallon!
Most loaches have really complex social hierarchies and need to be in groups of minimum 11 😩 the fact that there's only two clowns in that tank really sucks
Hello, what can be used to treat weather/dojo loaches with ice. Can I use salt?
You should totally get a Hillstream Loach! They're so awesome and look like little aliens. I have one so far named Stitch. I also have one golden dojo loach named Noodle, one spotted dojo loach named Lokie (he is mischievous as ever and my absolute favorite), one black Kuhli loache named Midnight, one Silver Kuhli loache named Sterling, and two striped Kuhli loaches that I haven't named yet. My favorite loaches as far as personality goes is the Dojos. Favorite as far as looks is a tie between the Hillstream and Striped Kuhlis. Those are a few I haven't seen you name off aside from the Hillstream. I highly recommend getting a few Hillstreams. They also have different patterns. Stitch has really cool squiggly patterns. I want to have at least 2 or 3 Hillstreams in each of my tanks. Where I live I get Hillstreams for $3.99 or $4.99.
That is a very good deal for Hillstream loaches! Seems like you know you’re stuff. I bet you could even breed those little aliens if you tried, ua-cam.com/video/e2AZ9PzjYxs/v-deo.html
I am trying to start a 75gl tank and want to put 1 red tail shark, 1 severum, 4 angels, 2 gourmes, and 3 clown louchies can some help me out to see if this is a good fit.
I have a similar kind to the sumo loach called a serpentine loach. I am unsure if they are the same kind just diffrent names. They are in my tank with khulis and angelicus loaches. Thoughs are all in my 95 gallon. I have a 170 that i had built to be longer but not to shallow. Its a more stream kind of set up with cooler water. They have everything from like 4 kinds of hillstreams (butterfly loaches) to just normal Chinese hillstreams (they look like overgrown sumos) i have a few other ki ds in there too like my 5 clouded leopard loaches the so called "main fish" in that tank is a school of 48 glass cats. Tropical i know. The tank was originaly set up for them but i didnt realise my heaters all shorted out due to a faulty plug and it just kind of cooled down and they showed no signs of caring. They like eatting everything drifting in the current theres also some shiners in there too. Some buffalo shiners. About 50 of thoughs and everyone goes just fine i have considered putting a few more things in there. Suggestions anyone?
I have two clown coaches but I want a kuhli loach.
He should try a saddled loach or even the panda loach. They aren’t very common at least where I live!
Khuli loach
Dojo loach
Two other cool loaches. I think he owned some wiggle noodles at one point
Awesome video as usual haha will you be going to the Tampa Bay aquarium meet? It's on wild fish catching
I’ll be there with bells on Sal!! Say hey tomorrow evening
Nice meeting you tonight Sal. Safe trip home with that nice haul!!
@@WildFishTanks YES! that was so much fun, ill have to do that again :)
Welp I'm gonna be the guy eventually first loach only tank soon
What about Tiger loaches
I have khuli loaches lmaoo.
Peculiar little weirdos
6:40. Which loach is this? The one on the left, not thee zebra.
My favorite group of fish! I have hillstream, zebra, dwarf chain link and clowns. Looking to add gastromyzon, sumo, and a few others. Now I want those 8 banded loaches! I find loaches.com a good resource and the book "Loaches: natural history and aquarium care" by McDonald to be a fabulous resource. Rachel O'Leary has quite a few of the smaller loaches.
Hurrah! for loachkeepers!!
I’ll have to point him in the direction of that book. I’ve seen those dwarf chain loaches, love their patterns!
Dwarf chains continue to escape my clutches,one day.
I like loach to but can’t find some them
You might have to look online unfortunately. Hopefully in the next few years more and more will become common in the hobby and get into stores.
There are millions of zodiac loaches in river just by side of 🏠...
This video has 0 dislikes ❤
Ya jinxed it dude! 😂
Thumbs up I love your videos....You need a microphone.
I really dig this one and may I ask what special effects editing software did you use to make the Shine off of both of your heads So Angelic like? 😂🤣
We both scrubbed our heads with bar keepers friend in the makeup room before filming
What doubts do you have that we are not aqua Angels,lol.
@@robsloaches7752 RYAN maybe but you!!??
More like AQUA DEMON
@@AQUAFUNK I like the sound of that,lol
Is he located in the east coast? Does he want a forktailed loach im stationed in nyc?
Much appreciated but long trip from orlando,lol.
Where did you get a fork tailed loach? I've been looking around and havent found anywhere that sells them
William Crisostomofelipe its a rare import you gotta b lucky when you look on thewetspot
@@haketheflake2688 Ok thanks! I'll keep an eye out for it
Hillstream for the win.
Hillstream loaches and hillstream tanks in general are awesome
I have 10 Pangio oblanga
Is the 8 band loach same as serpent loach?
Not 100% sure but I did a quick Google search and it looks like it might be
I did the same and couldn’t find anything conclusive. I have a small group 4 and they are an absolute blast they play tag all over the tank. Everything ive read says no one has been able to breed in captivity yet. Challenge excepted! Im building a fast river tank to try and im going to try and cycle a rainy season
A local LFS... eeeehhh EMMMM! lol... I still loove the sumos the most! The 8 banded and Zipper loaches are awesome fish!!! LOL the all new YOLO LOACHES! heheheheeh Im enjoying this too much!
Lmao, ya know...just some random store. I’ve never seen those sumos anywhere else and we need to line breed YOLO Loaches!
Nothing but love for aquascaping supply and their awesome owners and selection of loaches,um how did I do?
@@robsloaches7752 haha and alllllll the love for our friends!!! Great looking setup you have!!! We love buying fish that we've never seen before when the chance presents itself! You did great!!! 😉😆
You don't have "Blue botia"......
NAVNEET KUMAR Blue are my favorite
Ok. Then he haven't seen the Panda the hillstream and Rosie loaches.
Not sure that he has. I definitely haven’t seen them locally, I think I’ve seen Rosy loach on a video before.
WHO DISLIKED THE VIDEO???!??!? 😠👊
crazy haters man
seriously, dude, get a second mic for yourself
Awesome content!
