I have a betta and half a dozen cherry shrimp in a 5 gallox hex Eclipse tank at work. I have some anubias on a rock and some floating hornwart in there too. Lately I've had an explosion of tiny snails. Do you think I could add one zebra loach into the tank? Right now there is no heater though as I noticed one day Silk was very sluggish and when I went to feed him the water seemed too warm. Sure enough - my heater was stuck on and the temp was 88 in there. I have it unplugged and he's much livelier in the 74ish temp it stays at. I'm bummed about the heater since I paid about $30 for it only a couple of months ago.
I would think I'd need to add a tiny cave for the loach to hide in though as the little bridge ornament may not be enough of a hidey hole for him.
Would a loach be ok not being fed on weekends like is the case now?
