Clown Loaches...

[Angry_Platy]

Well....new tank would be more the point!!

Yesterday I moved my 3 clown loaches (Krusty, Houdini and Ronald), into their new home, my 75gallon tank.....NOT HAPPY JAN.....(them that is not me)....poor little things seem bewildered by all the space they now have and the other fish that "weren't in the other tank"!!!

Two are brave and swim around all the time, mirroring the yellow labs. When they see anyone near the tank they dart for cover to come out when the coast is clear. The 3rd one, I saw this morning swimming happily yet wasn't to be seen when I got home not long ago....there was always one that was a bit shyer than the rest so I figure he is just hiding in a "safe spot".....

SOO....I am trying to get pics which is a bit hard ATM....I will wait till they settle down a bit then try and get....if possible, all 3!!!!

Damn hiding fish

They're a bugger to get good pics of Always hiding, and that one time they're sleeping out in the open, you go to get the camera, focus it up, then just as you press the button, they dart off behind the rocks or plants!!!!! Buggers!!!!!!

Well, it's been three days and the three loaches are happy and active....or should I say hyperactive. I was worried about them getting food with the EYs being greedy pigs and all but now I am more worried about the EYs as the loaches are so quick in snatching food from in front of the EY's!! They are always wanting to eat and when its not feeding time they are searching the bottom of the tank for remnants!!

They certainly are entertaining fish...hence their name "clown"

this one clown loach I have, when I put in a couple new fish he like goes into panic state, you can pratically see him yelling "MY TANK MY TANK!"
