Breeding Clown Loach

Breeding Clown Loach

1. A few weeks before the spawning occurred, the Clown Loaches changed their normal behaviour and accepted no other food than live fish.
2. In this case, four Clown Loaches measuring over 10 inches (25 centimetres) were kept together in a planted aquarium.
3. The water temperature was 84 degrees Fahrenheit. The ammonia and nitrite levels were kept at zero, and the nitrate level below 25. The pH was 6.5.
4. If your Clown Loaches spawn, you should remove the fish from the aquarium afterwards since they will otherwise eat the eggs.
5. The fry grew comparatively fast and had reached a length of 1 inch (2.5 centimetres) after 6 weeks. The Clown Loach fry were given liquid fry food during their first two weeks.
