    Default Emperial Clown Loach

    I got 5 from Mike and they ate right away just 10 minutes when I placed them in the new tank.

    Here is a vid of the loaches eating pellets.

    I will try to find some apple snails. a 28" won't have a problem destroying a whole bunch of them. It will more like just swallow them whole.

    I can't wait too. Talk to fugupuff that it will take 2 years to get to 12-15". Which is not bad. Compare to regular clown loach that will take 25-30 years to get to 16".
