I got two new Clown Loaches today. The pics may be a little blurry - they wouldn't sit still :loll:

In this pic there is 1 loach, a neon and the other loach is partially out of the frame.

You loaches must be tiny as the neon doesn't look much smaller.

Make sure you give them some caves to feel safe with

Thanks Gerry..I just held a "ruler" up to the glass of my tank and the blue neon in question is about 2cm (20mm) long and I picked 1 loach and he was about 4cm long (40mm). Sorry the picture looked deceiving :) Thank you for mentioning it though :thmup:

congrats on the clowns Coast, :thmup: I've got a crew of them and they are really fun fish.

very cute little fellas, hope they get comfortable and do really well for ya.

not sure of your set-up and such, but if you are gonna raise 2 clowns to really big, then I'd suggest go ahead and make it 3-4 if you can, they really seem to feel more comfortable and active in bigger groups.

just a thought, like I said I'm not sure of your set-up or plans and so forth. I've got a group of 5, had em about a year, and would add some more if I could. :D I have this "clown-school 125g" in mind down the road for mine when they outgrow the 75g they are in now. :P

okay, I can start ramblin on the clowns so holler if you want some thoughts.

congrats again, enjoy those little fellas. :)

:hello: Hey Big O,
Yeah I think clowns are cool also. I wanted 3 of them but the petshop here only had 2 small ones and a huge one. I didn't want to put the 2 small ones in with the big guy - not sure if they would get along :unsure: . I do want to get another 1 or 2 though ;). The clowns are in my big tank - 210 litre tank. They are sharing it quite happily with: a bossy guarmi, couple of bala sharks, tiger barbs, neons, algae eater, rummy nose tetra and some other fish....sorry I'm not looking at the tank, it's in another room :P . I've probably forgotton some one. Feel free to go on and on and on about clowns :thmup:
