    Arrow BOTIA KUBOTAI as a tankmate with Discus?

    OK - has anyone had any BOTIA KUBOTAI coexisting with their discus and how did it turn out? I added 2 to my discus tank about 2 weeks ago and they seem to be doing great! From what I have read, they like the same water parameters as discus with the exception of the temp. They prefer up to 84*. I keep my tank at 86-87 and they are doing fine, very active and eating well.

    Are there any horror stories out there that I need to worry about like with the common pleco?

    Here is an actual link to the fish I am talking about...

    I don't know anything about that loach, but they are beautiful.

    When are they most active? Do you have little caves set up for them?

    TIA,
    Harper~

    They do have places to hide. They are most active when feeding of course! They are pretty active in the evenings as well. At this point they are doing very good with the discus and angels in my tank. I guess I will just keep a close eye on them.

    Thanks for the reply.

    TC,
    Kevin
