Clown Loach Behaviour Questions

[charlie.jarratt@gmail.com]

I recently got 4 small clown loaches from my lfs

They are great imo. Generally though, I've noticed that they split up into two groups of two and just swim really fast up and down the aquarium walls

Also only one looks weird. The others are great. I think the weird one has internal parasites (it looks like he has been caved in at the back. Any help or suggestions will be appreciated

Clown loach are well known for suffering from internal paracites, id suggesting treating the tank with an internal paracite med and see if the sunken look improves. Also, what size tank are these guys in?

hi, i have young clown loaches and mine were a bit skinny to begin with, are yours looking thin, that could be the reason for the one looking abit funny just keep on feeding them well. Mine also split into groups don't worry to much about that they are still young. Clown loaches are one of my favourite fish enjoy

They are also very sensitive to white spots. Take care about it also.
