Hello everyone,my name is Mike.
Great site you all have here.It has 2 of my favorite hobbies, fishing and fish keeping.I live on the treasure coast of Florida.Love fishing in the Indian River for Snook/redfish/trout/snapper/flounder/and sheapshead.We went through 3 hurricanes in 2 years and it has really changed the fishing.I am just starting to see the sea grass in the river come back like it was.The hurricanes also took their tool on my fish tank.
Lost 12 2"-7'" clown loaches/2 Angelicus Loach/2 yoyos/ after first hurricane of my life.Learned a lot and was ready for the next two hurricanes.Generator is a must in hurricane land.Ice bottles for high water temps and battery operated air pumps for late at night when the generator is off.

Welcome!

You will have to throw some pics up of your tank and the rest of your loach collection.
Sad to hear that you have lost so many loaches.
