Temperature dilemma

[Baho]

so i keep readng u guys saying that clown loaches have to be kept at warm temp... my tanks at 77F right now and i dont think i can bring it any higher. imma list u the fish i have n let me no if i can:

clown loach
weather loach
green phantom
royal pleco
inspector pleco
pictus
jaguar catfish
paroon catfish
rainbow fish
angel fish
texas cichlid

most of my fish r bottom dwellers but i heard that the max should be 77 for the green phantom n the weather loach... anyways let me no wat u guys think cuz i dont wanna loose my CLs
thanx

Well, isolate your pleco and weather loach. Weather loaches will never survive for a long time in very warm temperatures.

I'd do the same thing, and get that temp up to 82 deg F

I keep mine around 28c.

Thanx for replying.I guess imma take a chance wit 25C cuz I'm not plannin on gettin a new aquarium. Hope I'm lucky!
