Great to see big loaches look relatively small, because of the huge tank volume.

Did you adopt "VickiandKev"'s Clown Loach group? Crazy to think it was now two years ago when I met them in Fareham, one of the Aborichthys elongatus they got me is still around today in my 5x2x2.

I did take on Vickiandkevs fish. I was very happy to, as some of them I had rehomed with them a couple of years before when I sold my 6' tank. So to get them back was great!!!

It's great to see another tank which is actually big enough for clown loaches!

Giant loaches. Many people dont realize they get that big.

Thanks all, there are 17 in there at the moment but I will be rehoming the 5 small ones leaving just 12. These 12 are all over 8" though, with the biggest well over 12" now. It is a big tank but if you take into account the 5 fully grown Yasuhikotakia modesta, 6 large angels & the nearly 2' giant gourami it takes it's toll on the filters, otherwise I would have so many more clowns in there as they are by far my favourites.

They are huuuuuge! Mine got to about quarter of that size but then I added some new fish, turned out they had whitespot, my clownloaches were covered in it and they died.

Awww they're amazing. I love clownies ... really wish I could keep them to their maximum size instead of only having them for a few years before rehoming.
