Hello,

I just added 3 clown loaches to my tank. Do I feed them during the day or are they nocturnal and I feed them at night?

Unless you have less than 3, they should come out. You're not supposed to keep them in less than 3 in number anyway. 5 is a better minimum.

Feed them during the day. With only 3 you might notice that they only come out at feeding time.

Anytime is a good time to feed them. I think that you'll find them to be quite the hog. They will eat whenever and whatever you throw in the tank without bias.

I have 7 6" loaches that religiously eat just after the light turns on @ 5:00am, they are already dancing out in the open beside the oscars when I wake up, they know I'm coming.
