$50 including shipping. They will be here Wednesday. I know they are not rare but I am excited anyway. I think they will mix with the 18 clowns nicely.

gotta love botias. I think they should go on with those Clowns great.

They remind me of my yoyos a little. Nice find!

Nice pick up!

All the loaches made the trip just fine. he even tossed in an extra in case of DOA, so there were 9. They were a little smaller than I expected though, and unfortunatly my albino dinosaur bichir ate one of the smallest ones about 2 hours after putting them into the tank.

Sweet.

How big a tank are the 18 clowns in?

I just put my 4 clowns in my 125 and i want to add a few more.

[stevenallenbarnard]

they are in a 72X16X24 120g with an FX5 for filtration.

[danielp]

basically same foot print as my tank.

I'm running 2x 2217's and a aqua clear 110.

Looks like i need to start looking for some loaches.

Thanks

[stevenallenbarnard]

My plan is to eventually add a 2217 filled completely with carbon, purigen and maybe a couple of plastic scrubbies to fill it out and convert my fx5 to 100% biological. I also need to add a good powerhead, I'm starting to think the output from the fx5 isn't enough to keep the bigger clowns amused.
