Dwarf Chain Loach

To protect our animals and to ensure they get to our customers healthy, we will only ship orders with Nano Fish via UPS Next Day Air.

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:
