I was reading somewhere that clown loaches are like chickens in a way. They have a hyarachy / pecking order and if you add a new one that is bigger or in between the biggest and smallest the new fish has to find his place in the group. Glad he has settled in angelcakes. :ssmile:

lookin' good... but it looks like they could fatten up a bit. Mine go nuts over TopFin sinking shrimp pellets and it makes 'em real fat!
