This morning I woke up, and decided to see how my new clown loaches were coming along in their extermination project of the snails in my tank. Then I noticed . . . one of them was MISSING!!
All the caves and hide outs I made in this tank are visible at certain angles, so I was really worried.
Confused, I calmed myself down, and decided to wait awhile before jumping to conclusions, so I backed off and started surfing the net on a nearby computer. After all, I figured a clever loach might find alternative hiding spots in any tank.
But after a couple minutes, I heard a frantic splashing sound. I moved back to the tank to investigate, and another of my loaches was missing!
Frantic now, I opened the lid and looked all about, but still no loaches! But then, as I leaned in, some water splashed up from the bio-wheel compartment. Blah! Beneficial bacteria all over my face!!
Annoyed, I pulled out the bio-wheel and sure enough, the two missing loaches were squirming around . . . they had swam through the water fall to get in!
