Loaches Online Forum

I don't often catch all of my clowns out at once. Since the time change I have been up earlier and they have been doing what they always do. I just don't normally wake up that early to catch all of them out at once. For the last 3 days they have been out and about. Recently they are allowing me to get right up to them without running away...Cool!

Very cool! You appear to have changed your gravel...maybe its just me. I find it very interesting to see them all run away when the "boss"comes . What were you feeding them?

well no the gravel is still the same. with the new tank I am going with something more natural. i believe it looks different because of the blue moon light. they were eating hikari algae wafers and sinking shrimp pellets. also i feed them spectra +a antiparasitic sinking pellets. it has a picture of a clown loach on the container. they really love the spectra pellets the best bc they have to dig to get to them.

They're really cute & chubby!
Do you feed them those big chunky wafers or do you break them apart for them?
I've been wanting to buy algae wafers but I think they're too big for my 2-inch clowns.
