Black Kuhlii Loach

The Black Kuhli Loach (Pangio oblonga) is a peaceful freshwater bottom-dweller from the Cobitidae family. These distinctive eel-like loaches are recognized for their long, slender bodies, predominantly black coloration, and shy, nocturnal nature. They are social fish that do best when kept in groups and provided with plenty of places to explore and hide.
