I know this guy that is selling clown loaches for 8 bucks each, hes got some small ones and good size ones. He's probably have about 8 3 to 4". I been wanting to try about 4 or 5 of them but would it work with my plecos? I am aware that they are both bottom dwellers, has anyone ever tried it? Any issues?
I know i would have to move all of my assasin snails to the other tank as they are suppose to be snail eaters.

Thanks for all of your inputs.
 
Ive had a quad of loaches with a pair of plecos who had fry and I kept two of the fry. So, for the past few years Ive kept loaches and plecos with NO problems ever. The loaches are way to smart.
 
Yeah Ive kept my loaches with plecos and it's only fortunate that my loaches aren't interested in the algae wafers.
They'll all mob on zucchini though! Plecos and CLs do just fine together.
 
Cool, i might snag those CL that are bigger then for 8 bucks each, i think they are good price
 
clown loaches are an awesome fish. at one point i had 23 of them, i think its time to get another group going.
