Lonely Clown Loach?

[GrubbyGirl]

It's really funny, people either give up after a few months and you get bargain tanks on Ebay, or people get hooked and the tanks just grow and grow! Very few keep just one tank!

I would recommend getting a bigger tank as a big group of clowns is something really special. I would also recommend finding a better lfs where you can get sound advice, asking questions on this forum is also a good thing.

Thanks for your replies. I bought this tank for my son for his 7th birthday (for us to do together), the tank is in his room. I have fallen big time for the whole thing, wish they were mine so I could remove spongebob and crew

I cannot upgrade but would love my own tank, but poss having an extension this year so prob wait til thats done to minimise disruption to the fish.

I never EVER stops at one tank!!
Where are you? Anywhere near kent I have a couple or three baby bristlenoses you could have, they are good fun and keep the tank clean!

Funny, I have been talking to darling (yet non fishy) husband about an isolation tank, he remained quiet and I take that as a yes?!?

I am just under an hour from Bluewater, you close to le grande shopping centre?

Unfortunatly no, I am further down near Maidstone

Thats a shame, thanks for the offer though.

Boost - 11 loaches!! Wow, thats a home I would be happy to let him go to, I love him so much but want him to be happy. Where are you? I am in Hertfordshire.

im cambridgeshire, if your stuck and really want to rehome im sure we could work something out.

i dare bet tho but you will get a new tank, i started out with a little 2 foot tank and now have a 8ft in front room, 2 240lt and 1 180lt

We're 45 mins from Cambridge itself, I used to work at Addenbrooks Hospital. If your close to there I would bring him to you. My son wants to keep him but I explained the huge family you have and he agreed to it but would love to see. Dont suppose you have a pic you could post?

Def not in a position to get a bigger tank til we have extended but then there will be no stopping me! Am planning another dog this year too(3 kids, dog, cat and fish is clearly not enough )
