Twice now I have seen my clown loaches "white out", the first time I got concerned thinking some kind of fishy disease and I would lose it, but later the coloring was as vibrant as always so I figured it was just a quirky "can't see thru the bubbly water very well". Today I found 2 clowns both looking washed out again, only they appeared to be sparring with each other. By looking washed out I mean it looked like their normally bright coloring had developed a white coating over it that you could still see their colors under. While they were washed out they kept going at each other face to face, back off, bump faces again. This went on for maybe 10-15 minutes and then their coloring came back and they have been swimming around like nothing happened. No damage seemed to be done to either. Is this normal behavior when they are trying to decide who will be dominant? Both appear happy and healthy, love to come to surface to see what kind of goodies I am feeding from a dropper and frequently eat whatever it is! I believe they have also snacked on 2 ghost shrimp, which is fine, they were bought 5/$1 hoping to be a good meal for dwarf puffer. I put 1 in dp tank, 4 in com tank and only ever see 2 now.
Any other shrimp buddies that the clowns would like I would also be interested in hearing about!
