Not specifically loaches, but even we need breaks. I was thinking about the things my family have said and done in my pursuit of fish. I get teased alot, they say they are worried when I talk to the fish, I have a betta that comes and rubs against the side of the tank when I put my finger on it, he won't do it for my daughter who's fingers are the same size. They joke back and forth about the wonderful sushi they will have. Understand please, this is good hearted fun, and my husband's brother is the owner of the biggest fish tank I've seen in the midwest, a pond, with an island. His fish are trained too, when you walk around the pond, you get shadowed by fish. He allows catch and release fishing and the fish will jump at a hook 1/4"
