i think they stick together ? 50 is a lot ! how do they eat? when u got like 50 of em ? they are considerd scavengers?
I started out just buying a small group of 3 because I had a bad snail problem. I don't know what they did to me, but I ended up ordering a group of 30 more. I have since picked up several others with oddball patterns. I am looking at trading some of my fronts and other fish that I like just to be able to pick up more loaches. I love to watch the activity of my 180 gallon tank.
It's not for everybody.

Clown loaches are amazing fish. They've got a number of things going for them as a species. First, they are readily available and fairly inexpensive. Second, they are very active and attractive fish. Third, there is no limit to the uniqueness per fish ie short bodies, odd patterns, etc. Its like collecting comic books. Everyone is after that wild patterened clown. I've got 7 myself and want to at least double that number in the next few weeks! I'm an addict.
