Clown loach...

[ecoli73]

Apparently, my 17 loaches did not get the memo that they are suppose to like dimly lit tanks...

They feed and swim around when my main lights are on in the morning and evenings; and when I turn on my moonlight in the evening a couple of hours before I turn all lights off to feed by plecos, they all go do the loach pile thing behind a large holey rock.

When the lights are dim they meet together to plan their escape.

Lol. I thought that it would be cramped lol. Sounds like your tank is very suitable. Any pics?

Mine do the same thing. 15 of them stuffed into a 55 gallon tank filled with driftwood from front to back side to side. When I bought them. Now in a 210 and they never hide.

Sounds like they are pretty happy in there. Let see some pics.

Love the tank, though you might want to remind the loaches that they are bottom dwellers and have no business at the surface.
