Tank mates - clown loaches
Posted: Fri Nov 06, 2009 10:24 pm
Hi
It has been ages since I logged into this forum. Getting back ;to things now.
I have a 4' tank with (now) 4 clown loaches. I lost my 8" loach while we were away on hols. I am not sure what happened, but the house sitter didn't notice for a few days I don't think. I am still trying to fix the tank - V large algal bloom. Even had a bright green film on the top of the water. I now seem to have fixed that, but still doing weekly (almost 50%) water changes.
I would like to get another small clown to replace the lost one. I am also thinking of getting 5 - Botia Sidthimunki (Dwarf Loach). I have cory catfish (5) and yo yo loaches (5), a few khulis and 8 rasboras. Will not be doing this until I have the tank sorted out though. I have plenty of hiding places, plenty of plants and lots of wood.
Would just like an opinion on whether the Botia Sidthimunkis will fit in.
Thanks heaps,
Megan
