my lfs just got in about 12 little 1/2" or smaller clown loaches and they are asking 4.99 for each but said they will give me a deal if i buy all of them

they said they will give me all of them for $50

just wondering is this a good deal or not?

Sounds like a deal then.

They are a lot of fun to watch in large groups. But, just know that they will take a long time to grow out. After a year you will be lucky to have them up to 4".
 
I love mine. They clean everything! Also, they can get kinda big. Ive seen 10" CLs before. A large community like that would be pretty cool in the right tank.
 
Mines with a female JD and she doesnt pay any attention to them. Not sure about the gar. Just give them plenty of hiding spots, they can usually hold their own in open water. Fast little buggers.
 
Are they really 1/2"? I have never seen them that small, and I have had bad luck with really small ones. Your call.
