So I have 5 clown loaches, 3 tiger loaches, an angelica botia and one other botia. One of my tiger loaches and one clown loach constantly hide up under the backside of my HOB (in between the filter and the glass). They appear fine when I come out in the morning and turn the lights on to feed, but they keep going back up there. Everyone else is fine though. :screwy:

Any ideas why these two are anti-social? Water params are good (0,0, <10) all the time.

Exactly what Fishorama said botines love to hide.

I have a Botia tank with a good number of loaches in it, unless it is feeding time you would think I only had 2 or 3. A dario that is in this tank has gone 3-6 months without ever being seen. Then she will be out for a few days and then hide for time again.
