The Skunk Botia Loach is an active scavenger that is a semi-aggressive fish that enjoys the company of its own species, or other semi-aggressive fish. It will school with others of the same age and size. The skunk Botia Loach appreciates caves, holes, and other places to hide, especially when it sleeps. Because it originates from streams, it requires water currents in the aquarium.

These guys are great for eating pest snails in your aquarium, be careful when keeping other snails you want to keep alive though. It's recommended to not house them with your snails if you want them to stay alive.
