Clown Loach Addict

why dont your rays eat your clowns???

If theyre large enough, the rays wont touch them. Clown loaches have spines
that stick out of their eyes !

Not many fish bother clown loachs.

i recal reading about how clown loaches can become immune to ich after they get it and recover from it. this goes for other fish is well.

they say that a vaccine can be made for ich. . .

Interesting. I would think that to be erroneous. I have found that after the initial breakout and treatment (with marine salt) that they aren't necessarily immune, but rather that they parasite dies. I dunno....

I have 10 about 4". They do a great job of cleaning up and make an attractive active component of my tank decor.

I have 5 CL they are so fun to watch. They are so funny, the way they swim and how loud they are when they eat.

As far as feeding clown loaches, try some blanched peas or blanched zuchini. They love the stuff.

What is the maximum size for clown loaches?

The biggest I've seen is 14"
The biggest friends of mine have seen is 17"
The biggest a member of the ACA saw was 20"

I've got a friend who has raised several up to 12"-13" range.

My largest is only a real chunky 7"

CL's rule

they are always active lil buggers as my girl likes to say.....great fish to wake up the tank and clean it up....they are happy janitors!

Every tank should have some!
