Robert Clowney Junior is getting a bit big....

My Clown loach is an absolute beauty but I'm worried about my Apisto's. Let me explain...

As we know Apisto's are quite "gentle" in their manner when not in breeding mode. When I drop in pellets, live/frozen food etc Robert jumps straight in and barges everything out of the way. Not on purpose, he's just much bigger than the Apisto's. I'm now worried theyr're not getting enough to eat especially as Robert is a massive hoover and never stops looking for food. He literally sucks the last morsel off everything. The Columbians are fine as they are extremely fast and scoff all they can mid water. But Robert has even taken to meeting me at the water surface when I feed.

Am I worrying needlessly?

Robert Clowney Jr.

The name

The clown loach looks like it is sunken in around the top of the head.
What does it get fed?
Has it been dewormed?

What doesn't he get fed would be easier lol. He eats anything I put in there. Flake, pellet, frozen/live, etc. He's not so keen on Repashy community mix though.

Maybe look into deworming your fish and see if it gains any weight after that.
