Loaches Online Forum

Wow this is some crazy stuffs here. It's a controversial issue so I won't even try to argue.

They already made these Glow fish and selectively bred un-natural shape fishes - imagine what the aquarium fishes would be like in next 500 years...

At least it's natural and not man-made...

Stunning pictures. Thanks for sharing!

nice loaches. I always look for a dotted clown loach but haven't seen one yet. How long did it take you to find one or did you find it by luck?

Awesome pics Emma, what kind of camera do you use?

What's the biggest burmese loach you've ever seen? I have three burmese loaches about 2" for a few months and they don't seems to be growing at all.I think they are suppose to grow up to 5"?

Thanks for the reply guys.

I thought all clown loaches are wild caught. Many online stores and articles says they are wild caught mainly because it's cheaper to catch them. I even thought about collecting weird pattern clown loaches but not anymore. I am not into mutants...

I don't own any clown loach, yet. But I've seen quite a few different levels of color intensity in clown loaches on the internet. It goes from deep bright yellow to almost grey. The young ones are usually a lot more colorful than the old ones. Is there any relation between the age and color or food ...
