Get ready to take your aquarium experience to the next level with Borneo Loaches! These active, social fish come from the fast-flowing streams of Borneo and will bring energy and diversity to any aquarium. Plus, they need plenty of oxygen and love to school in groups of three or more for maximum benefits. Get your Borneo Loaches today for a unique and exciting aquarium experience!
These fish would go great with Bamboo Fan Shrimp as they both prefer water movement and originate from streams. Trying to recreate a stream with river stone will help these fish thrive.
The scientific name for the Borneo Sucker Loach is Gastromyzon ctenocephalus .although other species can get mixed in.
We feed our loaches a mix Northfin Veggie, Community and Fry Starter. Their preferred food is Northfin Kelp Wafers and natural algae or biofilm. They are not picky eaters and will accept foods that are small enough.

I bought three of these Bornea Sucker Loach thinking they could help with my algae problem. In three days they cleaned every speck algae on the glass and then went after the rocks. When they get more, I will be buying more my other three aquariums. They are amazing!!!
Got my fish over a week ago. Not really sure they are what they are suppose to be. I say that because how narrow they look. Normally the shape is a perfect figure 8. Mine are narrow and petite. May be in time they will grow sum.
The 4 borneo loaches I ordered arrived healthy and energetic. They are still doing well days later in my high tech planted shrimp tank. I was worried they wouldn’t survive transit or my in my aquarium but in both cases they seem to be fine. My experience buying livestock from Flip Aquatics was positive and I would definitely consider them among my first places to shop.
We received the fish in good order and my daughter was excited. He was extremely tiny for how expensive he was, but she was happy. He unfortunately did not make it past the 10 day point which caused much sadness and confusion. We have kept multiple fish alive for many years and have a thriving tank, this guy was quarantined just to make sure there was not any sickness or anything to spread to the tank. So, we’re quite disappointed and sad and won’t do it again.
Very satisfied always very satisfied they have a wonderful huge selection of a variety of fish lots of exotics and hard to find fish love this store will purchase many more times
Bought some Borneo Sucker Loaches from Flip few weeks back. They arrived healthy and in great shape. Highly recommend these for your cleanup crew over all others.
We love our Borneo loaches, they’re so cute and active, they’re not as shy as plecos.
My only concern is we paid for a heat pack but the heat pack was outside of the area near the fish and the fish water was freezing which defeated the point of the heat pack.
It arrived healthy and active.
This item was delivered on the estimated arrival date.
Always great service
Little guys came in happy and healthy. Love watching them bounce around the tank attacking algae.
I ordered two to Las Vegas. They showed up timely and healthy with unique color patterns. They have been living in a quarantine tank for one week without issue.
