Loaches or Loaches

Loaches are often confused with catfish, especially with Corydoras, из-за external resemblance and behavior, although these are completely different groups of fish. Loaches are found in tropical and temperate latitudes. They live in various environments, and in fast mountain streams and tropical swamps. They lead a predominantly nocturnal lifestyle. Sedentary, can stay in one place for a long time, located in any crevice. Many loach species have a snake-like body shape and tend to burrow into soft ground, leaving only their eyes on the surface. This adaptation allows them to hide from danger. As a protection, the body also has small spines that, when at rest, remain immersed in the skin. In case of danger, loaches raise their spines, which can cause certain problems in the process of maintaining an aquarium or while catching fish.
