Description

Discover the lively and colorful Clown Loach (Botia macracantha), a popular choice for aquarium enthusiasts. This species is easily recognizable by its bold orange body adorned with black bands. Clown Loaches are social creatures that prefer to live in groups, making them a lively addition to any community tank.

Native to the rivers of Indonesia, Clown Loaches are known for their playful behavior and can often be seen swimming together or hiding among plants and decorations. They are peaceful and get along well with other non-aggressive fish, making them an ideal choice for a harmonious aquarium.

These bottom dwellers are also beneficial to your tank’s ecosystem as they help keep it clean by scavenging for food on the substrate. Clown Loaches are relatively hardy and can adapt to a range of water conditions, although they thrive best in slightly acidic to neutral pH and warm temperatures between 75°F to 86°F.

For those looking to add a splash of color and dynamic activity to their aquarium, the Clown Loach is an excellent option. You can find these delightful fish at Live Fish Direct. To see our other loaches available, check out our bottom feeders section.
