Eels are good with all Gouramis, all Barbs including Tinfoil Barbs, all Rainbows, a school of Bala Sharks, one Red Tail Shark or one Rainbow Shark, and a school of Clown Loaches. They can live in most any basic aqaurium conditions, but requrire a strong filter due to the heavy bioloads. A well sealed aquarium lid is a must, because these animals are very good at escaping.
Loaches are active bottom dwelling scavengers ideally suited for the community aquarium. Loach fish consist of some of the most popular of all tropical fish, adding color, interest, and beauty to any larger community aquarium. Loaches are semi-aggressive fish when housed in the aquarium individually, so it is important to maintain each species in groups of six or more to minimize aggression.
