Ckiwn loach an bristlenose fighting
Posted: 28 Apr 2017, 20:43
Can anyone help please ?
I'm Stevie and new to this forum.
I had a breeding pair of bristlenose cats in a 130l tank.
I also have a bad snail problem and this was affecting the eggs and causing us to loose babies we think.
Assassin snails seemed useless to control this so I purchased 2 clown loaches.
These didn't get on an seemed to fight with my bristlenose plecs fairly quickly.
before I could remove the clown loaches my female was not moving and died the next day.
One of the clown loaches also died the same night
The male cat he is hardly moving and I'm worried he may die also
Fish were separate to different tanks as soon as i realised but unfortunately too late I'm deeply upset about this as I'm normally very careful .
I'm really not sure what to do to keep it friendly and sort out my snail problems can anyone please advise me as they are my favourite fish and I didn't want to house them in my other tank although it may be my only alternative
Thank you Stevie x
