Fish lover from way back

Hello! I have had a tropical, freshwater tanks for about 25 years. Mostly community tanks and cichlids. For the last several years I have just one tank with 2 freshwater clown loaches (tiger botia) that are the last two fish from a community tank. They are about 14 -15 years old, 6 - 7 inches long, in a 30 gallon tank. I am here to learn more, and ask questions about these guys, and the possibility of adding new fish. I'm pretty attached so I want to do right by them Happy to be here! Thank you!

Welcome to the forum! Are you going to set up a new tank any time soon? Can we see your tank?

14 and 15? WOW! You must really give them a heck of an oasis... But I thought they needed a bigger tank size?*

Yes, they are old! And great fish. They were in a 75 gal with multiple other fish, then a 55 gal. Then we had to downsize, so they had to downsize, but they have done very well!?
