Clown loaches will get too big for a 40gall tank....they can grow to a foot long!!! They also like to be kept in groups of 3 ore more....

Have ypu considered cories? They would be oK for your tank

 

[Cheese Specialist]

Clown loaches do best in groups if 3+, and although you say you want "small ones", they will not stay small for long and grow to 4" quickly but then slower until getting 8-12"

Cories or a smaller species of loach might be good. Perhaps a smaller plec or farlowella, maybe a whiptail.

i'd go with the cories

why not go a boulivian butterfly or two,
they should happily coinhabit the tank with out too many problems, they look cool too.
