Hello All, looks like three of my clown loaches are developing skinny disease right now, and two of them are pretty bad. I did some research here and found that people recommend levamisole plus antibiotics to treat the fish. However, I couldn't find levamisole in my local fish store or online. Would ...

Hope they can make it.

:( sad update:

within the last two weeks treatment, I lost 5 clowns (2 smallest ones, 2 med ones and the biggest one). I am really frustrated!

The other 3 are hiding all time, didn't come out for a min. There are still white spots on one of the loach. I know they are very stressed. I don't know ...

I'll stick to the quick cure treatment first to see how it goes before I change to other things...

thanks again!

I have 7 clown loaches ranging from 2-4 inches in a 55 gallon fish tank. I have been keeping them in this tank for almost a year now.

After 20 days quarantine, I added another clown loach into this tank two weeks ago. Unfortunately, I found ich on some of my loaches last thursday. I don't know ...

Hi,

One of my clown loaches stop eating today. This morning when I feed them, I found one clown just swim aimlessly whithout eating anything. It's about 4 inches, and nothing wrong with it before. I tested the water and all parameters were fine.

I am worried about this clown right now. Should I ...

Hi,

I am here in the US, but my friend is in Indonesia Country. I am not sure how or where he can get the loaches, but definitely he can. And he just asked me how to import some loaches into US, or maybe wants me to find a dealer for him.

I actually have no idea.

Hey there,

I put three 5-6 inches clown loaches into my 75 gallon african cichlid (mbuna) tank (pH 7.6) several days ago. So far, they are fine with my mbuna. But I got the problem of feeding.

I feed my mbunas every night with cichlid pellet (NLS) and some algae flake. but the loaches are too ...

Hey, I am in Boston. I am thinking to add more clown loaches in my community tank.

But I checked the LFS, petco, petsmart and also walmart. Their clown loaches are all not very healthy. They are not orange/black at all, fade as white and black, too thin and some even have white spots on the body ...

thanks Nancy!

I have been in Lovelypets before, but not recently. I can go to check some time next week. But for other stores, I should figure out how to go first. :) I will let you know if I can find some good place.

For my clown loaches, they are now just buddies around 2-2.5 inches. I know ...
