I've done the Clown Loach and Discus in the past, but did not have luck, my collection of Discus, suddenly just all went south, I gave up my discus and Clown Loaches, 7 years later. I bought my first batch of 3, the 4, and when Pet Smart had their sale, I picked up 3, totalling 10. I loss one to jumping out, 2 to ich and 1 to a power head. down to 6. I then bout 5 more, and a week later add 7 more. making it 18, they are all 2-3 inches. I move them all into my 120 gallons. I traded my Tinfoil and pleco for a nice 4 inch (19), then bout 1 at 5" (20). then I had to get an odd ball so I bought one with Spots (21).
I am looking to add one more odd ball Spot (22) and 2 more large ones at 4-5 inches (24).
I am also considering trading 10 of my small ones in or parting them out. I'm contemplating. Kinda wished I would have just bought 5 big ones and 2 odd balls.
Sorry for the blurry picttures, these guys are hard to photograph. Plus I need to get a new light setup for my 120.
I will eventually thin them out or move half into my long 125 gallon. I am in the market for a 300 gallon. My 120 is very well filtered, 1 FX5, and 1 large Sump and pump of GEnXPCX40. Water changes twice a week, prime and aged for a day or 2 of 50 gallons before pumpin into the 120.
Ultimately I want to house 11 in my 125 and 13 in the 120. ( 24 ) is the number I am after. If and when I get the 300 or larger tank, I will add 3 more making it 27.
I will start finding large bamboo for housing and also include in some black PVC pipes.
Currently feeding - Frozen bloodworms, Mysis shrimps, Market praws, earthworms, algae waffers, cucmbers, and zucchini.
