Characterized by its elongated body and barbels around the mouth, it has a reputation for being sensitive to changes in barometric pressure, often becoming more active before a storm &#8211; hence the name &#8220;Weather Loach.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Origin:<\/strong> Native to East Asia, including China, Korea, and Japan, the Weather Dojo Loach is found in a range of freshwater habitats, from slow-moving rivers to rice paddies.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Feeding:<\/strong> Omnivorous by nature, this loach is not a fussy eater. A diet consisting of a variety of foods like sinking pellets, frozen or live bloodworms, brine shrimp, and occasional vegetables will keep them healthy and active.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tank Mates:<\/strong> They are generally peaceful and can be kept with other non-aggressive fish of similar size. Good tank mates include danios, rasboras, and some types of tetras. Avoid keeping them with small, slow-moving, or long-finned fish, as they may nip at them.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Aggression:<\/strong> The Weather Dojo Loach is known for its peaceful demeanor and is unlikely to show aggression towards tank mates. They are social creatures and do well in groups.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Experience Level:<\/strong> Suitable for beginners due to their hardiness and easy-going nature, these loaches are a great choice for those new to aquarium keeping.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Water Parameters:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Temperature: 50-77\u00b0F (10-25\u00b0C)<\/li>\n<li>pH: 6.0-8.0<\/li>\n<li>Hardness: 5-12 dGH<\/li>\n<li>Water cleanliness is important, so regular water changes and a good filtration system are recommended.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Providing hiding places like caves or plants will make them feel secure. Remember, these loaches can grow up to 10 inches in length, so a larger tank is necessary as they mature.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[videopress JPp5jjh1 w=1920 h=1080]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":14100,"template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[64,55,314],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-25942","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-loach","7":"product_cat-pond-river-fish","8":"product_cat-temperate-fish","10":"first","11":"instock","12":"taxable","13":"shipping-taxable","14":"purchasable","15":"product-type-simple"},"group_of_quantity":0,"min_quantity":0,"max_quantity":"","exclude_order_quantity_value_rules":"no","exclude_category_quantity_rules":"no","combine_variations":"no","exclude_global_add_ons":[],"addons":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/aquadistribution.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/product\/25942","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/aquadistribution.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/aquadistribution.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aquadistribution.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/14100"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/aquadistribution.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=25942"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aquadistribution.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fproduct_brand&post=25942"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aquadistribution.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fproduct_cat&post=25942"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aquadistribution.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fproduct_tag&post=25942"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
