CYPRINIDS
name max size
Clown Loach 6.0

... maybe if they put a clown loach in a suitable tank it'll grow to be its actual size......

Oh I remember this site... I stumbled upon it a while back and also sent an e-mail but didn't get any response (however I suspect the e-mail did not go through as I was having computer troubles at the time). I remember feeling awfuly sick cause I kept thinking that some of the listed fish had probably already been eaten by unsuitable tankmates or killed off because of the ridiculous overstocking. This is why people HAVE to do lots and lots and LOTS of research before stocking their new tank - so they don't base everything off such a bad example and can judge for themselves what's good or bad.

thanx Dana

good on ya

Cheers. Possibily would have been better had I checked the typos prior to sending.

I think it's insane to have that up on that site, unless it was as examples of how not to do it.

Hello,

- Someone with 2-15gallons should be reported to an animla charity.

Actually, there are quite a few fish that you can keep in 5-10 gallon happily. In 2g, you can keep a single betta. In 5g, you can keep a betta, 3-4 shrimps and a snail. In 10-13g, you can keep 5-6 pigmy corys and 8 to 10 neons, provided that you have significant amount of live plants. With 15g, you can easily add 3 otos on top of that.

Perhaps you should look at what I was referring to before commenting...

In one of the "2-15gallon tank"

4- Red ear sliders (baby turtles)
1- Platinum Gourami
5- Golden white Clouds
2-Golden Barbs
1-Leopard Pleco
1-Dark Coffee&Cream Pleco
1-Sailfin Gibbiceps Pleco

and the other:

2- Neon Dwarf Gouramis (orange)
2- Blue Gouramis
3- Sparkling Gouramis
3- Albino Tiger Barbs (they look like little lemon drops SO CUTE)
2- German Blue Rams (Named Sid & Nancy they are so punkrock with all their colors)
2- Clown killifish
2- Striata Botia Loaches (Named Cuff & Link they do everything together so fun to watch)
1- Pictus catfish

Remember this is in a 2-15 gallon tank(s), very few of those fish are able to live happily in tanks that size and some of the fish are not even compatible.

Thanks.
