The weather loach is a freshwater fish species of the Cobitidae family. This omnivorous fish from Asia is capable of breathing and moving out of water. It is sometimes kept in aquariums. An adult can reach more than thirty centimeters in length. The common name of this loach comes from its ability to detect variations in atmospheric pressure and react by swimming frantically or by holding itself vertically.
