Clown Loaches like fire?!
I moved into my new house last week and noticed that when I have the fireplace burning, my 3 clowns huddle together and just watch the fire flicker. It's way across the room so the heat doesn't touch the tank at all.It's so funny. They seem completely mesmerized by it.

hey, count yourself lucky... at least you SEE your clowns,
...mine only seem to come out in the middle of the night. I am an insomniac, but really, this is ridiculous.
They are SO beautiful when I do see them...
It is really cool that your like the firelight.
Maybe if I light a candle and play some Barry manilo?

I have a pvc elbow in the tank with the opening facing the front glass. They just huddle in there normally but when the fire is lit they angle their bodies so their one eye is facing straight towards it. They get really docile and just chill there. The only times I can walk by the tank without them hiding really fast is when the fire is lit. They just love it!
My clowns click all the time. They usually click when they are eating but recently they started doing it very loudly when the room is dark and empty. My fiance and I were eating dinner and she heard the 'tick tick tick' from 3 rooms away. She says "OMG what is that weird ticking sound?" "The fish click" I said. And she's like "Yeah..right.. go find out where the clicking is coming from"

its a slow process
Yes. Mine used to be like that intially, always hiding in the caves etc whenever I come closer to the tank.
It used to be really funny when I stood closer to the tank, still - they peek out slowly to see if I am gone and dash in again seeing me still standing
Now they're 4 years old in my tank and they're used to me I suppose. They aren't running / hiding anymore - and are very inquisitive. Whenever there is music playing on TV they crowd to that corner of the tank to look at the TV. Its a bit quirky to think your fish enjoys music... but you never know what runs in their minds...
