Hello everyone.. Im really happy today, my YoYo Loaches finally came!

I ordered 6, but the seller threw in an extra so I got 7 :) :woot:

They are still juvies, and range in sizes from 1inch to 1.5inch.


When I opened the box, I could tell they were really stressed out because they were really pale. After letting the baggies float for about 20 minutes and using the drip acclimation process, their color started coming back.

I want these little guys to survive, so whats the best way to make them feel better and get them to eat?

Thanks everyone :)
 
Groovy baby! Get the pics coming!

They will eat almost anything particularly frozen bloodworms and commercial foods. Feeding is not really a trouble with yoyo loaches.

Awesome, thanks lupin :)

I have them in my 10g thats pretty heavily planted.. I just dont want them getting picked on by my tiger barbs since their still pretty small.

They seem pretty active and really energetic.. I tossed in an algae wafer, and a mixture of crushed flakes and brine shrimp (just a pinch).

I hope they eat :o
 
My yoyos are all around 5 inches.
I don't think feeding should be a problem. Mine are real pigs. They will eat anything that goes to the bottom, bloodworms being a favorite.
Also, mine are in with 14 tiger barbs, they do very well together.
Cograts on the yoyos!
