I have 2 Yo-Yo loaches (I love these guys), and I DID have 2 Khuli loaches. I noticed one of the Khulis was getting a bit pale in it's coloring, then a couple of days ago, it croaked. The other loach still looks healthy. No abnormal marks, growths or swimming problems, and it's colors are as vibrant as they have ever been. I suspect that the khuli died of starvation...I may be wrong.
The Yo-Yos are active all day long, searching for food and playing. They do a bang-up job of cleaning the substrate. Thing is, the Khulis are pretty lazy during the day, and I'm afraid the Yo-Yo's are sucking up all the food before they khuli can find any.
I have tried dropping some sinking food (tablet mixture of various worm meal), but the khuli just ignores the stuff.
All my fish love frozen bloodworm, but if I put some in just before lights out, I'm concerned that the yo-yos will still eat them all.
Can anyone help me with some suggestions?
All my water perameters are testing well
Nitrites-0
Ammonia-0
Nitrates are at the bottom of the scale, so no accurate number.
