Product details

Striking Stripes and Bottom-Dwelling Personality

The Zebra Loach is a small, peaceful bottom-dweller known for its beautiful black-and-white horizontal striping — resembling the pattern of a zebra. Native to the freshwater streams of India, this sociable loach is active, entertaining, and an excellent addition to planted community aquariums.

Zebra Loaches are ideal for controlling snail populations and helping keep the substrate clean. Their playful group behavior and relatively small adult size make them perfect for medium-sized tanks and peaceful setups.
