However, from my experience a minimum of 5-7 loaches is not necessary as many people may say...I have 3 clown loaches in my 75L (20 gallon) tank and they are having a great time. They share a home with 2 dwarf gouramis and 4 black neon tetras who all get along great...
I have had the loaches for roughly 4 months and they're not distressed, nor inactive.
With this in mind however i do plan to upgrade my tank to most likely a 50 gallon in 6 or so months...just to give them room to grow and have a bit more room to explore!
