Golden Dojo Loach Aquarium Care Guide

Keeping Golden Dojo Loach in an aquarium requires the right conditions.

Aquarium Information

• Care level: beginner
• Temperament: peaceful
• Diet: omnivore
• Minimum tank size: 50 gallons (190 liters) for a single specimen, larger for groups
• Compatibility: Excellent community fish, compatible with most peaceful temperate and subtropical species. Avoid housing with very small, delicate fish or aggressive species that might nip at their fins.
• Special requirements: Requires a soft substrate (sand or fine gravel) for burrowing, as they enjoy digging. Provide plenty of hiding spots with smooth rocks, driftwood, and dense planting. Good filtration is essential, but strong currents should be avoided. They are known jumpers, so a tight-fitting lid is crucial. Can tolerate a wide range of temperatures, making them suitable for unheated tanks in some climates, but stable conditions are preferred.
