Wow, this sound ideal if it isn't too far away.

Has he killed other clown loaches?

Val

Excellent!! LOVE the PVC pipe corners.

It is difficult to get these drugs in the UK, so not sure what to do.

I use Aqua plus water conditioner and just add it to the water in the quantities as stated on the bottle. I always use Visitherm heaters and have found them to be very reliable.

However, quarantine and treat the new ones, and they will grow faster, and not bring parasites or disease to the main tank.

I have made up a quarantine tank, but what should I treat them with?

Was in my LFS today and they had some clown loaches with unusual markings, so my 6 clowns almost became 8 clowns :roll: these ones were really tiny, about half the size of mine, if I buy them would my guys bully them at all? I just have 6 clowns and 6 Brochis splendens in the tank at the moment. Val

Very nice!!

Will you put these in another tank?

Val

I wonder why the corys didn't defend themselves? they have spines on their back fins to spike predators.
