2 wonderful clown loaches for adoption-

Hello-
Back when I was more ignorant, I took the advice of a LFS and bought 2 clown loaches for my 20 gal long tank. Of course they are getting too big, and though I love them "Big Larry" and "Lenny" should go to a caring home. They have always been healthy and have always had as clean tank with plenty of hiding places. One is about 5 in. and the other about 3 in.
I live in central NJ and would be willing to travel a short distance to meet someone. That is if time allows.
thanks for looking,
Sorry I do have a pic but am having trouble posting it.

Hi Jano,
Unless Shari wants them or you decide to keep them (it is very hard to part with loaches), I may be interested (and my clowns certainly are). I'm in NY, and your clowns are about the right size to join my pack (mine are 3"-4", living in a 125g). Drop me a pm if this is an option you want to consider.

Adopting loaches is very good for the "feel good" factor. I have two adopted Clowns and a Botia dario.

So true martin.
Most of mine Cl`s are the one`s that have lived alone for year`s.
Can`t help myself and buy them.
But for the last 4, that where the smallèst I`ve ever seen. Wanted to buy the hole lot, but know I can`t house them ALL....
Glad to see your CL`s will have a good home with shari2.

I think it's wonderful that Jan and Michele went the extra mile to find a great home for their fish. I like happy endings.
