    Hi everyone

    So I got my hands on a few new fish friends this past week...

    In my 30l I managed to fiiiinally get some pea puffers (thank you again @Kiaan26 for your help!)

    Then my 3ft has 5 new additions, 3 khuli loaches and 2 German blue rams.

    No problem. I'm thinking that they were originally captive bred as they were so tiny. They were about 5mm long.

    Hi. Congratulations on the new fish. Kuhli loaches are awesome. I have 5 of them in my 350l tank and I do see the one or two of them every night. They do really well in a group of 5 - 6 and are way more active if they feel safety in numbers. I have never owned pea puffers but have heard they are amazing fish to have. Enjoy your new arrivals..

    Congrats on the new fish! Ive never kept khuli Loaches but I'm thinking about it. Iv'e had a species-only pea puffer tank and they are FUN!!! Just be prepared for the breeding of snails :) I love them. my friend calls them little murder-beans.
