Dude, i slowly raised the temp to 91° F for ich, be sure to use Canning and Pickling salt, it's the cleanest - you don't want to use tank salt. Lots of water changes like the man said. If that doesn't help; see if your local store has something with garlic in it that is all natural. Ich hates...

Awesome markings.

They fricken love cucumber over here, and zucchini, not so much the lettuce.

Sinking pellets, and algae wafers are also favorite of loaches of all ages.

I tried this also: Click here to see my experiment. i looked good for a while, but the gravel fell off and was picked off by the loaches. Then i switched to the stones, they are ceramic, look real, a large amount of them scattered and or stacked looks awesome and provides many hidey holes for...

Try these: Ciclid Stones i bought the big pack and my Loaches love them, all kinds of great places to hide.

What are you talking about? That's his favourite hiding place. Just showing him off.

This is my biggest Clown Loach, hiding under a rock, the third pic is with a pictus catfish for size reference. Also they were taken with an iPhone 3Gs. Taken randomly a few a days ago, and posted rather off a whim today. The same Loach now is deeper under the rock when at rest.

I keep two pictus cats with mine - 9 or so clown loaches, and one rainbow shark. A fee tiger barbs would be great also imho.

Just a quick thanks to bump this up, since i found it useful for like the sixth time.

Yup, saw that the other day, and was sad i don't have my bigger tank yet.

i've not seen anything survive the little buggers. i also go with plasitc, and they dig them up, i end up replanting about every two weeks.

That's first one's a fatty, rock on!

It's a Lolfish!

That little guy Rocks!

They're not too picky about size, i cut up shrimp so everyone can get at least a little, they tend to carry the piece they grab into a safe corner or cave - at least they do here.

It's a fifty-five, and it's WAY overstocked: 11 loaches at 3"-6.5", 11"+ Plec, 2 pictus cats, and a rainbow shark. They are still getting settled in from moving the tank, so head count varies, luckily i can tell almost all of them apart. Please don't be alarmed it's was only intended to grow...

Here's a random picture, i was trying to get it when two big Clowns were peeking out of the cave:

3823-1=3822, No clue what happened, just found him. It was a few weeks before i moved. I managed to move the rest in the middle of winter with no loses!

Impressive.
