I need the best loach or fish that would go with my 29 gallon planted tank.
I have 6 SAE, 6 Ottos, and a few ghost and amano shrimp.

These snails must have snuck in on a plant. They are the are not rams or trumpet, but the other little guys with softer shells.

I think they are chewing my plants, but not posative. I noticed there a bunch of little ones I cant seam to get all of them by hand.

Any suggestions on a loach or fish that is nice, and would like a snail snack?


??? :D

Clown loaches are the best I've heard. If don't want to buy it then see if they will let you rent it for a week! Just a joke. Though that would be really cool a fish rental store! Buisness idea!

go with clown loaches...good "investment"..and entertaining too..go with the biggest you can buy..the lil ones seem too fragile! but stay away from red finned blue loaches..there neat looking
but are aggresive..i had one that stabbed one of my
gold severums with is eye barb..

Thank you but like I said, friends, is that I dont want a clown loach. They should be kept in a small school, and I think of a school in my tank, at least 6 members. That is $50.
I want a loach like botia lohachata..anyone ever kept these??

our clowns are way too expensive. small ones are 10$ each, and they're wierd looking. I don't like them. I have kept bettas that eat snails....
