Can I keep Discus with clown loaches? I have not set up the 135 yet. Nor have any discus yet. (just getting information on them so I can set the tank to their liking) My clown loaches (3) are 2-3 inches. I would guess that they can be together now but maybe not in the future? At what size would I have to seperate...if at all?
 
I've never had problems keeping Clown Loaches and Discus together. The clowns can be faster at grabbing food, but as long as you make sure everybody gets enough, it's not really a problem. I've never seen a reason to separate them. They tend to ignore each other.
