Biggest Clown Loach?

[Tiger Tiger]

I am at present trying to grow some large Clown Loach.
Being one of my favourite fish i have four which have grown up together and must now be about 6 inches.

Has anyone got some nice sized ones?
I would love to see some pictures, even at 6 inches they look stunning any bigger and they must be awesome

I have seen a video on youtube of a clown loach over a foot long.

They usually top out around 8-10" though they can get bigger given the right environment.

Hi, I read your post on large Clown Loaches and thought you might be interested to know that there is a site called "Badmans Tropical Fish Forum". There is a lady on there called Shari and she has a few Clown Loaches which are 1 foot long. There is a video to look at where she is fussing them which is very nice. You will have to look around to find it as I looked some time ago but it is worth seeing. Regards, Morgan. Ooops, I meant to PM this.
