Loaches Online Forum

I also picked up a trio of these. First time I've had them. Also just got a 6" Syncrossus Beauforti. The Tigers seem to be more available right now.

I am looking for information that applies to the artificial breeding programs for clown loaches in Asia or the Czech Republic. Specifically, I am looking for websites, articles, or contact info for these companies. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

A year.

If I left it in there, I'm sure it would. The Cichla will be moving when it hits 4".

Martin.

I'll work on that. Thanks Martin.

Nice pictures - love your tank! Is there anything nicer than a large school of clowns? Seems like you got some pretty aggressive company for them, though. How are they getting along?

The pics represent two different tanks. One has smaller loaches and smaller company, the other has larger loaches ...

Hi Ewurm , not the Frenatus , the one at the top right of the pic , in front of the Dangila sp/.

Still not sure as to which fish you're referring to. The fish in that picture are a Rainbow Shark, Apollo sharks, Roseline sharks. Aside from the loaches of course. Maybe copy the phot to your ...

It's some species of hygrophila, not sure which. I grow it in my native tank.

Thanks!

By the way, any images I post are free for the taking. Use them any way you see fit, no need for credit.

I'd like to see loach keeping advanced by any means.

Epalzeorhynchos frenatus

Some great loaches there. But please - don't pause to take photos of loaches in the net and out of water! They are not posing as much as gasping.
