hi aquarists
i'm leff and have just started with a 200 litre aquarium.
i 've put together a nice rock formation and planted tree vallisneria in the background.On the second week i added my first six fish, a bette sp. , three clown loaches and two small catfish.The gay at the store told me to start off feeding them only once every tow days and so i did.In the morning of the third day though i found a terrible sight.The loaches were eating me bettas fins off!Now i have moved the betta in a bowl and will take hi m back for treatment.He has lost all his fins except for his small side ones.I am really troubled about the loaches and thinking about taking them back.The guy at the store said that there is probably one agressive loach and is instigating the other two.Don't know what to do
pls help
