Are these compatible ?? as I've read some stories of yoyo loach eating guppies. I know I should have researched this before getting the loach but saw him at the lfs and thought it was a Cory and it was sold to me as a Cory..

Any replies will be appreciated..
 
Can anyone help? Heard they can be aggressive towards other fish such as tetras
 
I have them with neons and Molly fry and they are fine. The yo yo loaches are very inquisitive though. Also I've had them scavenge dead fish so you have to remove any dead ones fairly quick.

Best in a group of at least 3 I find (if you have room).

Edit - great add to tank though, I'd get them again.
 
I have a 20g with

6 female guppies
2 male guppies
6 neon tetras
3 black neon tetras
3 glolight tetras
3 adf
1 yoyo loach

Could I have another loach and a couple of peppered Cory., would I be overstocking my tank ??
 
I've read that they are a bit aggressive to have in with species I have in my tank.. Also I have amano shrimp which could be attacked by the yoyo loach.. Do you think I should exchange him for peppered Cory's instead ??
