The Black Kuhli Loach (Pangio oblonga) is a peaceful, eel-like bottom-dwelling fish valued for its solid dark coloration and active scavenging behaviour.

Black Kuhli Loaches are nocturnal and social fish that thrive in groups. When provided with appropriate hiding spaces and soft substrates, they become active and engaging members of peaceful community aquariums.

Skip the bag- Keep the lotions!
The lotions are amazing and have been using for about ten yrs. If you want a tan and not peeling use these. HOWEVER, this order i decided to get the bag for easier carrying and these bottles don’t fit.. kinda ridiculous

You don’t look like Casper the ghost!
Color: 25 Sun Protection Factor (SPF)
A really nice clean sunscreen a little goes a long way. I just used it on my face and love the fact that it didn’t turn it completely white. It’s quite sheer protective and hydrating.
