Skunk Botia Loach is too aggressive?

I have a 20 gallon planted tank with some drift wood, 9 tetras, 3 rasboras, and a single skunk loach that I bought for the purpose of cleaning a snail infestatio -- that was about two years ago. The loach has always been aggressive but recently after rearranging certain decorations inside the tank, it has become especially aggressive, chasing the other fish and nipping their fins if they come too close. How can I prevent the nipping and outrageous aggressiveness that has occurred as of late?Skunk Botia Loach is too aggressive?
Hope you have an extra tank you can put the fish in. If the fish is that aggressive now, it will probably get more aggressive. You're going to have a punch of finless fish or population with dwindle.





Sounds like your tank may be too small for the amount of fish you have in the tank. You're going to have to remove the aggressive fish. At least for now. Try putting it back into the tank later. Always a good idea to have an extra tank around that can be used for just this kind of thing or can be used as a sick tank.Skunk Botia Loach is too aggressive?
Loaches are schooling fish, and should be kept in groups of 3 or more. If they're kept solitary they can get very nippy and aggressive. Also, they need places to hide during the day. They're nocturnal, so if you don't give them someplace dark to hide they get stressed out.
don't put them in unless you wanna see your fish without fins.
