Petsmart should have them.

Hmm I've never seen em.. okay polka dot loaches are a must. There so amazing

 

[FishFanatic88]

glad you share my passion for them, just look at my photos!!

 

[fishfanatic]

You helped! Lol how many hatchets should I do?

I think 5-6 of them would be good.

 

[awilson133]

I can see why there beautiful. Okay I'm probably gonna have to order a good portion of this stock.. I'm going to longmont, Colorado this week and there is a lfs I wanna check out so if they have what I need then ill see if I can order em and have them shipped.

 

[FishFanatic88]

Good Luck! If you have one nearby...apparently petco will special order fish if you ask. im not sure if this is true bur if u have one nearby it wouldnt hurt to ask.

 

[awilson133]

I do but I don't know...petco is a lil sketch here.. but ill try it.

 

[FishFanatic88]

it all depends on the store, the one down the road from me sucks fish poo but one about 20 miles away frickin rocks.

Haha typical. The one west of where I live is brand new so ill try that one. I'm sure I could get em at this one lfs tails and scales.

I'd do 10-12 hatchets, they're more comfortable in groups and school when threatened

 

[awilson133]

I will. I really like them. Live aquaria has polka dot loaches for $32.00! Petsmart apparently has em for 6 or 7 bucks..

 

[vanimal]

I agree, they will be healthier and it looks better anyways

 

[FishFanatic88]

Get them from petsmart. i bought three with no problems.... and they r alot cheaper!

 

[awilson133]

I called petsmart and they only have clown loaches..:/ which still are really cool

 

[FishFanatic88]

If you get Clown Loaches only get 3

 

[awilson133]

They pretty big though. :/ why only three? I read clean water is important for them. That's not a tough task for me

Clown loaches would eventually get too big for the tank and need 125-150 gallons plus. But they could live in there for up to a year or two.

I have no problem rehoming or up grading to a bigger tank I'm shooting for a 220 <3. I think loaches of any kind are neat very personable.
