General appearance ranges from species to species, from black-and-white to brown or cream colored. Skunks belong to the family Mephitidae and to the order Carnivora. There are 10 species of skunks, which are divided into four genera: Mephitis (hooded and striped skunks, two species), Spilogale (spotted skunks, two species), Mydaus (stink badgers, two species), and Conepatus (hog-nosed skunks, four species). The two skunk species in the Mydaus genus inhabit Indonesia and the Philippines; all other skunks inhabit the Americas from Canada to central South America. Skunks were formerly classified as a subfamily within the family Mustelidae, which includes ferrets, weasels, otters, badgers, and relatives.

Some taxonomists dispute this claim, and continue to group skunks in family Mustelidae. From Wikipedia under the

The skunk loach gets to about 8-9 cm in length and has a salmon pink body marked with a black stripe running across the top of the fish from nose to tail. It is best to have a group of at least five of them. Though they are attractive and widely sold, it isn't a species for the average community aquarium, being somewhat aggressive even when kept in groups. They will attack and sometimes kill smaller fish. On the other hand, in a big tank with fast, midwater fish like Barbs and Silver Dollars, these fish can work quite well. Some people will keep larger Cichlids in a tank with Skunk Loach if they are setting up a community aquarium. As far as social behaviour goes, loaches have tended to be misunderstood.
