Tank Mates
Since they're at the bottom of the tank, they get along with most top-dwellers like Sparkling Gouramis, Danios, Mollies and Endlers. Mid-dwellers like Neon and Ember Tetras, Cherry Barbs, Rasboras. Bottom dwellers like Otocinclus, Clown Loachs other Corydoras. They can be fin nippers, so avoid long fin tetras, Bettas, Dwarf shrimp and snails
Notes
Polka Dot Loach, also known as Burmese Border Loach, are peaceful community fish similar to Zebra Loaches. Do well with fish their size or smaller. They need a lot of room to graze the bottom of the tank, so provide a minimum of 30 gallons or more.
