The Serpent Loach (Serpenticobitis octozona) is a fascinating freshwater fish known for its beautiful 8-bar pattern and active, inquisitive nature. While generally peaceful, they are best kept in larger groups (6+) as they can exhibit aggression if kept solitary or in small groups. They thrive in well-maintained aquariums with strong water flow and high oxygen levels, requiring regular partial water changes due to their sensitivity to organic pollutants.
