Don't put cichlids in with loaches. They need different tank params and kubotais are too peaceful for aggressive fish. They grow to 5-6 in max.
I have a clown loach that's about 5 inches and I have seen huge ones 7"+
Just curious, are there any exceptions? My clown loach has been in with my Africans for over a year, all are healthy and happy. Many of the fish keepers around my area have clown loaches in with Africans as well and I haven't heard or seen any problems. The show tanks at 2 lfs has clown loaches with Africans as well. Not arguing .... Just curious
Ok well I have a 55 sitting empty that I could move him to.... Tank mates?
You must move the mbuna ASAP! You will stress them and they will resort to violence! I just seen on the news a stressed yellow lab In New Orleans east left the tank in the middle of the night, opened the gun safe and took out his owner with extreme prejudice !! Move them for your own safety! Lol
Can a JD be in a tank by himself? Say around a 55 gal? I'm willing to do anything to eventually have my own jack
