Tropical Fish.

[maggie01]

I have a tropical fish tank with two clown loaches and a couple of small catfish and I did have 3 Long thinish fish black with white stripes and quite fast at swimming. (can't remember what they are. Anyway two of these black and white ones have vanished over the last couple of months. They haven't jumped out. Could they have been eaten by the other fish

Yep- the short answer.........lol

Have you checked your filter? they inside? Under all your decorations in the tank?

Hope you wont be offended by this, but clown loaches really should be kept as school, is ya tank big enough to add a few more?

The black and white ones are called Dannios....and mine frequently get eaten :o[..... gotta laugh though, something so fast should evade capture!!!!!

No Boo....not literally, but you spend all this money only to be hit by something called the 'food chain'.....

Yes I know I should have more Boo. I did have three. One died. The two I have seem happy. I am trying to not replace any now. Perhaps I should find someone who would be interested in taking them on. It was my husbands hobby and he got fed up with it, so I look after them. One of the clown loaches have got quite big since I/he had it.

Must have been hiding as it has reappeared. It hovers around the casing which holds the heater etc. and it is black so sometimes it's difficult to see. All well that ends well as they say.
