180g 20 clown loach, tankmates?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Get a school of Filament Barbs Dawkinsiafilamentosa or one of the fancier ones Rohani or assimilis... I keep all three types now and love them. The Filaments max out at about 8 inches highly active and colorful... changing all the time. My smaller Rohani and Assimils are actually groing out in a 125 with some 3 to 5 inch clown loaches.

Here is a pic of the big filaments

I have never heard of that type of barb. Really cool looking. Do you currently have any Filaments that are close to 8"? Everything I've read shows max of 3-5".

Sorry for double post...
 
A group of 10-15 Tiger SD's would look great with the CL's

They lie... my males are all about 8 inches with the biggest pushing 9 inches... Here is a video of them from feb . For size reference the tank is 500 gallons and the wide-bar silver-dollars were between 10 and 14 inches measured accurately ( I sold them a couple months ago and had them out of water}.

What is the growth rate of these Filament barb? Does it take years to get it to 7-8 inches?
