Loaches Online Forum

125gallon tank...

how many more clowns *currently 4*
they'll be with 9-12 tiger barbs, 1 gold-nugget pleco, 3 yo-yos and 3 gourami. ????

I have 5 Clown Loaches and 3 Dojos in my 125.They share it with 2 Severums ,2 flounder 2",5 phantom tetras 1 1/2" a Molly,2 Platies ,a Glassfish 1 1/2",2 ADFs and 4 Cories. I do weeky water changes of about 25% and daily vacuum of about 2 gallon2 to clean up poo laying on the sand

LOL

i have about 10 yoyo loaches
2 botias
3 clown loaches
6 other loaches im not even sure of their names (super small tho, 1inch)

all in my 60 gal with almost 10 other fish.

I've got 13 CLs, 3 Botia kubotai, 20 Tiger Barbs, 12 Danio kyathit, and around a dozen Corydoras aneus in a 125 to 130 ish (can't remember the exact capacity).

Stocking will depend on filtration capacity, water movement, etc., plus maintenance schedules. Mine has 2 Rena Filstars, one returning through a Magnum 350 filter housing (no impeller) that acts as extra biological filtration capacity), an Aquaclear 500 HOB, plus one of my River-Tank manifolds powered by 2 small powerheads, and an additional powerhead for some extra movement.

Ive got 14 Clown Loaches, 9 Tiger Barbs, 2 Blue Rams, 4 Rainbow Fish, 8 White Cloud Minnows, 4 Corys, 5 SAE and 2 Bristlenose in my 150Gallon.

I have 2 Eheim 2217's, an Emperor 400, and a 37G Sump on my tank as filtration.

thanks for all of your help

i'm planning on two eheim 2217s and i have an obsession with bubbles, i know that they're not "natural" along with the two filters... there are two 125gallon 4 out-put air pumps... don't ask two of my clowns "bathe" in them...

i agree, it depends partly on filtration. i run a wetdry that can handle about 3 times the size of my tank so im good for now. but the thing is that your fish might not grow as fast cause they wont max out the tank. they wont grow too much so they stay small. this is what im told is this true?
