Anyone have Clown Loaches with their PBass?

[xaznkewlguyx]

I just picked up a pack of 4" clown loaches and am about to move my 6" Orino in the tank.

Anyone have any horror stories about pbass eating their clown loaches? My 4" mono's are doing fine with them but I know the bass will outgrow the loaches really fast.

Cichla and clown loaches can only end in bad news, Best possible outcome is the clowns get eaten. Worst possible outcome the clowns hurt the cichla in the process leading to death or injury to both

I would stick to large broad body shaped fish
