    Anyone near York PA???

    What fish do you have in the tank? Is it planted? Try cutting back on the amount of food you give the fish. Ramshorn snails will eat some of the Hair Algae. Do you vacuum out all uneaten food? The algae feeds off of left over food. :?

    clown loaches with malawi cichlids

    Loaches love soft slightly acid water. Just remember they`re not aggressive at all so i`d worry about them being bullies. Under stress Clown Loaches can get ick very easily :? I vote NO.
