Well, it felt like theft anyway. O Street Aquarium got a HUGE batch of small clown loaches in about 1 1/2 weeks ago, and is selling them for $4.99. That's the cheapest I've ever seen, so I had to grab a few. They've been in the tank since yesterday, and seem to be doing well. They are smaller than the one I already had, and he is making sure to establish his dominance. Two of the new ones follow him around quite a bit. The other mostly hides, but it looks like it is adapting to its new home just fine otherwise. Anyhow, just wanted to share my great bargain news.
 
I got mine at 3/4" (Jeuv.) for 3/10$, so I bought 6 expecting a 50% casualty rate (I heard Jeuv clowns tend to die often).. well I still have 5, and they are all over 1" now, 2 are at 1.75" and growing.. who'ld have known..
 
If anyone close to Sac is looking for some, they have tons. Typical price for around here is $8-9.
