Ok, So I took the plunge and bought 4 clown loaches for my tank, they are floating in the bag right now. I am going to see how they do. As far as out growing the tank goes, my uncle has a 90 gallon tank, so he will gladly take them once they out grow my tank. If, unfortunatly they do start to...

Hmm..Ya thats something to think about. Those Corys do look nice, though I do prefer the Clown Loachs' Yellow and Black stripes ;) How many of those would make a good shoal?

True, I am only 16 now, and I will most likely have to take the tank down before they outgrow it.....Decisions, Decisions

Alright, I am going to go to my LFS pretty soon and have a look to see what other kind of loachs/bottom dwellers I could pick up that would fit my tank.

Thanks for the input guys, looks like I will probably go for something a bit smaller for the bottom of my tank

Hey, Quick question, I will soon be able to start stocking (woot!) my new 55g planted tank, one of the fish that I would like to get would be a small troup of clown loaches. I have reserched them, but I have not found much about them in a planted tank. Will they nibble at all or cause...

Thanks, I just added 8 more plants and the film seems to have died down significantly, but the water is still cloudy. So you are probably right that it is something else. I think it might just be some kind of mild new tank syndrom, since I didn't have enough plants before to effeectivly...

Hey, I live just west of Toronto, I use Big al's for all of my stuff, but for online, I have found a few sites http://www.bigalsonline.ca/ (Doesn't have as big a selection as their stores, but i found it good for pricing things) http://www.mops.ca/ (Again, good for pricing things I have...

hey, I am in the proccess of setting up a 55 gallon planted tank, I have a few plants in there right now and i will be getting more very soon. I noticed that my water was getting cloudy, but i assumed that the filter would take care of it, but after a few days it hasn't. Upon closer...

Hey, I am overhauling my 55 gallon tank and I am going to buy a canister filter for it. I am eyeing the RENA XP2, but I was wondering if anybody had any experience with these, or if they could recomend another one. I would prefer to spend under $200 on it. I am planning on making it a...
