The Zebra Hillstream Loach is a striking freshwater fish prized for its bold black and white striped pattern and energetic personality. Native to fast-flowing streams in Southeast Asia, this loach thrives in well-oxygenated tanks with moderate to strong water flow and plenty of hiding spots among rocks and driftwood. These bottom-dwellers are peaceful community fish that spend their time grazing on algae and small organisms. They prefer cooler water temperatures between 60–72°F and do best in groups of three or more. Their unique sucker-like mouth allows them to cling to surfaces while feeding, making them fascinating to observe. Ideal for experienced aquarists who can replicate their natural habitat, Zebra Hillstream Loaches add dynamic movement and natural beauty to any planted or rocky aquascape. Provide excellent filtration, regular water changes, and a varied diet of quality sinking pellets and vegetable matter for optimal health and longevity.
