I am wondering if clown loaches would make good tank mates with Datnoids??? I understand that Clown Loaches can reach about +14 inches in length.

Personally I am looking for a fish that would help reduce the amount of any excess food that might build up in the tank. The food stuff that the datnoids might miss during feedings, any ideas?

I would greatly appreciate any suggestions.

Loaches would be great tank mates, just be sure to get some that the dats can't eat.

This length can take YEARS to obtain.

Both are slow growers so it would be a great combo!

I would have to agree that they are good tankmates. I have two cl's in my small tank with a young indo dat, and they get along just fine.

Both have slow growth rates so they are perfect for each other.
