i have 2 or 3 black kkuhli loaches that are just to big for my tank i want to have more fish in my 15g but with the loaches it would be over stocked what do i do. do i flush?( really dont want to) can i just give them back to petsmart what can i do

Petsmart usuall doesn't take fish back do you have a LFS that's privately owned in your area they might take fish!! But if not try rehoming them somewhere I hate to see fish flushed for no reason! I wish I had the room for them

i hate the thought of flushing too i have a friend who will hopefuly take the loaches i love them but space is a issue and i dont really liike the 1gallon per inch of fish rule do you follow that rule

Its more than just that I have 2 oscars for a 55gal you have to go by waste production but generally a good rule and when the oscars im going to have to sell one cuz there pigs you have a 15 gal right what else do u have in your tank?
