Question about clown fish

[hardcore]

anyone here know anything about clown fish, need to ask you some questions about this little fellow we picked up, he is 5 to 6"

Clown fish? I dont understand? Is this a freshie?

 

[melosu58]

What do you need to know? You talking Sw or FW? Clown loach?

 

[ccCapt]

Are you talking about a saltwater clownfish? If so, pretty much the only 1 that gets that big is a maroon clown.

If you are talking about a freshwater clown loach, which can get to about 16", maybe someone more familiar with freshwater fish here can help you out.

i have 3 clown loaches, what do you want to know?

 

[hardcore]

sorry all , for takin so long on getting back , but we are in the middle of harvest, anyways the clown fish is a fresh water, the thing i was woundering how they get along with everything, i have been noticing that he does not seem to get along with our ghost knife fish, so i was woundering how they temp is, but they really are kinda a weird looking fish , lol , kinda like a mouse face, lol

how big is your tank

 

[hardcore]

my tank is 245 gal

Wow 245 gal and your loaches are giving your knife crap. That doesn't sound like typical loach behavior to me. I saw one at the fish tank(about 55-60 gal) at my dentist office that was about 5-6 inches and a bout an 2.5 inches tall including the fin.

Here is a whole website devoted to the Clown Loach. I figured it would be better than regurgitating info

Clown loaches can get to about 11" big
So i think 245gal is pretty good!

takes a good time but they do get way larger then that.

they also are a schooling fish the more of them the better.

Do they really oh wow
But with a 245gal you could put a substantial group ion there

There are many different fresh water fish referred to as "clown fish". Google Clown Loach, and Clown Knife if you are not sure. Those two are likely to be it if I have judged your setup correctly.

Once we know more specifically than "clown fish" we can give you the best advice
