Pretty Large Clown

Post by LeStat » Fri Oct 03, 2008 3:43 pm

Hi there,

I am new to the site, I have been nosing around here for ages but have decided to sign up. I thought you might enjoy this short video (I did) I found it by chance and was amazed at the size of the largest clown!! Makes my little family of clowns look tiny (& they are all 6" to 9").

Welcome to LOL though. If you have any loaches, please share any pics, stories, or experiences that you have had with them.

Thanks, I first aquired a few loach when a friend of mine bought a tank with the sole purpose of growing koi. He didn't want the tropical fish that came with so I offered to take them on, there was (amongst others) 1 Clown, 2 Blue Botia & 1 YoYo all just over 4". Ever since then I have been hooked on Clowns as they are just so friendly & funny, I now have 10 Clowns of various sizes who all eat out of my hand. I will take some photos and post but for now I must sleep.
Thanks AD

Hi LeStat, welcome to Loaches Online. :D Glad you enjoyed the video clip of my clowns.

bizbomb, they were eating prawns (salad shrimp), which are their favourite.
