I have one but I never see it because it hides in this log I have and somehow lives in it

@fishingman636 they hide in any hole they can find. If you feed him outside the log, he might come out to say hi

[mikjenson]

what do you feed your clown loaches?



[bolman88]

@mikjenson nearly always meat pellets (brand is Hikari), but sometimes blanched zuchini for a treat.

I was always told by experienced fish keepers to have at least 3 clown loaches or more and also told when they get bigger to make sure not to have small fish because they will start eating them after a while...

@TheGeneralJin We've kept clown loaches for over 7 years and have some big ones (>20cm) and they dont eat the other tiny fish (like tetras) unless they are sick or dying.

@fishingman636 they had all the time. it's normal. it's once they're really big they can't find anywhere to hide because they don't fit.

@mikjenson Meat pellets are best for clownloaches
