I've always avoided getting Clown Loaches, as I've only got a 55 gallon
for my Tropical tank. I'll be upgrading to a 90 gallon soon, so I thought
I would add some Clowns to the group.

Current inhabitants a

4 Tiger Barbs
4 Rosy Barbs
2 SAES
3 Yoyo Loaches
Unknown Otos (Probably 5)
7 Cardinal Tetras


I'll probably add 4 more Barbs (2 Tigers and 2 Rosy) to get them back to
six each. Although they don't seem terribly distressed about their
reduced numbers (originally 6 each). I may also move some of the SAEs
(3) from my small office tank to the larger tank, although they seem
quite content where they are.

Can a 90 gallon with these inhabitants support 6 Clown Loaches? Seems it
might be overcrowded to me.





They will not get more than 6"...perhaps less even. You have plenty of
room.

Thanks, the new tanks arrived today. So as soon as I build a stand and move
the boys, I'll look at adding some Clowns.
