Hi all

I recently posted about my khuli loach not being well,

Update he is he is adapting to a life of being handicap.

Despite not being able to swim like the other juli loaches. He is coping very well with his paralysis.

He is always lying on his side or upside down. However when feeding time arrives he will come out from under the filter - where he feels safe - to eat.

He will try different ways to maneuver himself upright, and then stay that way to eat for a while.

He looks very healthy color wise. But has a bent neck.

What I would like to know or confirm is ... Is this a problem with khuli loaches?

I found a allot of people wanting get answers on this subject on the Internet but receiving no information.

So in truth this has not just happens to me.

Does anyone have some information on this subject?

I would like to know as well. I got three khuki loaches a month ago and so far they are great, but one has a bend in his back. So I've wondered if that was a problem, because he seems fine.
Hope you get an answer! I love these loaches :)
