Pete M Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 Clown Loaches are awesome fish. I almost wish they weren't quite so efficient at wiping out my snail infestation so there would be more snails to watch them eat. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpnjim Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 The ones I had were little a** h****. :yes: Mean as anything, would flip over and use their upside down mouths to torment the other fish. I think there was a red tail black shark that they took extra pleasure in going after. I guess I should've goven them some snails to devourer instead. :D Beautiful fish tho, I probably should've tried getting them again later on when I had a less peaceful tank (more aggressive fish) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might have just got a 'bad batch', I found other catfish I liked (cory cats, upside down cats, bumblebee cats, etc), and went with those after the Clown Loaches were gone. One I really liked was an angelicus cat (the spotted silver/white kind), I had a pair in a brackish tank (with a figure 8 puffer, and some other brackish fish). When one of the pair died, I 'converted' the other to salt (gradually increased salt levels, till it was the same as my salt tank). Only fish I ever made money on, I think the pet store gave me like $25, because he was a salt water fish. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
