With their unique chain-like markings and playful personalities, Dwarf Chain Loaches are a wonderful addition to any aquarium. These loaches are expert bottom-dwellers, keeping your tank clean and free of excess food and debris. They also have a high tolerance for varying water conditions, making them a hardy and low-maintenance choice for fish enthusiasts. They are one of the smaller loaches and grow up to 2 inches to 2.5 inches long.

Dwarf Chain Loaches are pretty easy to care as long as they are introduced to a mature, cycled tank. They can acclimate to a wide range of parameters.  The following are our water parameters we keep them at:
