"Tiger" loaches are known for their aggressiveness.

my tiger loach and my red-tailed shark go at it all the time but he leaves all of the other fish alone

There are several tiger botias, all tend to be aggressive or at least unpredictable. Here is a link to find out whick species of the tiger group that you have. http://www.loaches.com/articles/telling-tigers-apart-the-syncrossus-genus

I agree with you, its most likely the loach. I've had problems with tigers doing that before.

well the lunatic tiger botia nipped (say shredded fins to $h1t) all my cories to hell.............and even had the nerve to take a small chunk out of my NGT's tail....frickin prick..................well eff him.............he's now history at the LFS....

he was actually doing good (behaving) once i moved him in with my exodons (species tank) and relocated the cories in with the sev's but then i lost the cory substrate cleaning power!!!!!!!! cant have that ...........so now i have happy exo's with their respective maids and happy sev's and healing cories...........go melafix!!!

well thats whats going on!!!!...........thanks for letting me rant and rave alittle........
