They love to hide. Look where you think they can't get.

Clown loaches rule, I realized about 2 weeks ago that they can hollow or tunnel into driftwood and make a home. Mine all pile into the hole in the wood when the lights go out.

I have 9, and they disappear at night, all hudlling in hiding places. They like to sleep with some cover. My Platys do the same.

well he wont go near the filter anymore. LOL Im happy for that. At least I dont have to look for him there again. (I still check every day though)

I remember years back I had a convict fry and apparently one got sucked into the filter. He was about 1 1/2" when we found him.
