Re: 3 loaches in my 75L (20 gallon) tank

Prove us wrong? I believe the first sentence in your first post does that for us. Yes, as tiny juveniles they will be fine in a 20 gallon tank. I use a 15 gallon as a quarantine tank and my new fish, including all manner of loaches among other fish do fine - temporarily. Only 3 loaches in a 40g will...

Re: Ambastaia Sidthimunki (BOTIA)

Looking on getting some of these myself. I have seen them in tanks with discus, kribinsis, rams, small tetras, gouramis, hatchet fish and all manner of plecos. I will be putting mine with eartheaters, festivums and rainbows or congo tetras. I'm curious if anyone has mixed them clown loaches or strip...

I am looking at converting my 24" 15g's into hillstream tanks and several of your species are on my want list. I currently have one reticulated sewelia and som...

Re: Best food for clown loaches

My current loaches are 10 years old... at least. I bought my first loaches 20 years ago. These days I feed New Life Spectrum granules... and algae wafers... and flakes.
