Would I be right in thinking that a pair of kribs would not play well
with loaches? (particularly kuhlis)?


If the kribs are breeding, they won't play particularly well with
anything. However, most loaches have a defensive spine on the gill
cover (Botias) or behind the eye (kuhlis) and will use it to discourage
unwanted attention. This means they don't tend to get hurt by
aggressive tankmates. However, kuhlis would probably hide in the
substrate or under rocks and wood if the kribs are chasing them so you'd
have invisible fish.
