Loaches at Ocean Blue Aquarium

**BSS** · 01-22-2005, 06:35 AM

While out driving around Thursday night, I popped into Ocean Blue at the corner of Aloma and Howell Branch. They had about half a dozen different types of loaches. My, new favorite type of fish

! They had more kubotias, what looked like really small yo-yos, a red-tailed striped variety, a golden striped variety and a few others. I'm not yet up on all the Latin names for these, and the labels were certainly suspect.

And, I'm proud to say, that I even resisted the urge to add to my already overly populated tank!

FWIW, Brian.

Thanks for the heads up! I've been looking for some loaches for a while now, especially yo-yo's and dwarfs....
