Naughty Clown Loaches!! - Aquarium Advice

qwertie · 06-26-2005, 11:16 AM

I have had my Clown loaches for 3 weeks now and I think they are now showing there true colours.
THEY ARE EVIL!!! lol
They regulary chase my schoal of black neons and split them up. (especially at feeding time) They ignore their wafer and chase the neons untill the food lands at the bottom.
I feed my neons flake food 3 times a day and I feed my Clown loaches pleco wafers twice a day.
Is this serious?
What should I do?

are your neons getting any food whatsoever?, you could feed the clown loaches first to distract them then try feeding the neons
