Did you read up on Clown Loaches? My gut reaction was, "Wow, that's a
lot of inches of fish!" While small now, they will grow.

I looked at The Krib and couldn't locate them immediately so did a
Google search and found:

http://freshaquarium.about.com/cs/lo...clownloach.htm

This site says they grow to 6" in an aquarium and 12" in the wild. My
LFS advertises the longer length. I didn't realize how long they'd live
either.

After not researching critters more than once and purchasing items I was
assured would be fine that subsequently died or caused problems, I try
hard not to buy now without research. The LFS personnel rarely know a
thing about what they sell and often give conflicting or contradictory
information.

Well I got 6 small clowns two days ago. They are still extraordinarily shy.
Maybe it is the aggressive postures of the tanganyikans. who knows. I just
can't wait for them to start feasting on these ugly brown moving lumps. LOL My
tank is 75 gallons so i think I have enough room for them.
