Meet the New Kid on the Block - Link

Meet the New Kid on the Block - Link the Dojo Loach
Meet the New Kid on the Block - Link the Dojo Loach
I introduced you all to our dojo loach, Leroy, a couple of days ago. I've done quite a bit of reading on dojo loaches and one of the articles commented on how much they like to interact with others of their own kind. We have plenty of room in our aquarium so we thought we could add a friend for him. 

This new dojo loach is about a third of the size of Leroy. We've had him about a week and for the first few days, he lived inside a rock cave. When he did venture out, as soon as we came near the aquarium, he would hide again. It was funny because we caught Leroy laying in there with him a lot as if he were trying to keep the new fish company. Whenever I approached the aquarium, Leroy would come to the surface of the water so I could pet him like usual while the new loach stayed hidden. 

Slowly, we noticed Link becoming more comfortable with all of us. Now he spends as much time in the open as Leroy and doesn't spook as easily. Only time will tell if he becomes as friendly towards us, though. 

It's interesting how two fish can have such different personalities!

Oh, this makes me miss my aquarium. We had a coolie loach years ago, brown with yellow stripes. He wasn't as friendly as your Leroy, though. Enjoyed the post, Melanie!

Cheryl,

Thanks for your comment. Coolie loaches are so much fun! I haven't had one in an aquarium for many years but they are fun to watch.

I"m glad you enjoyed the post! :-)
