Can you keep kuhli loachs in a pond?

Kuhli loaches are tropical Freshwater Fish that thrive in warm, well-maintained environments, making them unsuitable for outdoor ponds, especially in temperate climates where temperatures can drop significantly. They require stable water conditions and prefer a soft substrate with hiding places. If you live in a consistently warm climate, it might be possible to keep them in a pond, but careful attention must be paid to water parameters and protection from predators. Generally, it's best to keep kuhli loaches in an aquarium setting.
