:woot:all 4 of them and wanted to make sure they are all weather loaches as 2 seem to have different barbles, but could be broken?

and they are to go into my 90gal when it gets empty,.. with 3 shubs will that bioload be ok? as i bought 3 and in box was 4? oh well,.. they are really sweet,..lol didn't think i'd like them but wow they stole my heart instantly,..lol

any suggestions on care other than what i googled up for them,..? and boy do they poop,..lol

they are in a 10gal with a 60gal filter and a 10 internal, they both have cycled media in it,.. and tank has back holes around filter covered,..65 degrees,..

Very cute! I love how they sit up on their pectoral fins. That's how you can sex them, pecs long & pointy = male, shorter & rounded = female. Hope your tank is tightly covered, I hear they're jumpers. Someday...
 
Cute dojos! If there's barbel oddities, it's possible they might have worn them down trying to sift gravel.
I'm not sure, but I think you'll be fine for bioload.
 
They are so chubby and cute!
