Clown Loaches In A 60 Litre Tank?

[matty007]

Hi folks.

Im treating myself to one or two new fish tomorrow and I was hoping to get some clown loach. Ive done a bit of research and found that they are better suited to larger tanks. I currently have a 60 litre tank with 6 head and tail tetra and a dalmation molly. Would clown loaches be ok in a tank of this size, or would you not recommend it? Also, could any of you recommend some bottom feeders suitable for a tank of this size.

Thankyou.

clown loaehes will out grow ur tank m8 they can get upto i think 10 inches bottom feeders for 60 ltrs would probably be cory's which need 2 be in minimum groups of 4 but 6+ is much better

hope this helps

as JenCliBee said clown loaches are not suitable for a 60 ltr tank they will out grow it far too quicky
Corys are great fish and come in a variety of sizes and colourations
they are really playful especially when you get 4-6 together maybe more

good luck
