View Full Version : Clown loach fight.
Never heard of this but tonight i walked in to turn my light off on the tank and saw one of my clown loaches dead. It had clearly clown loach bites all over it. So i sat and watched the remaining 3 loaches and one clearly the biggest had 2 bite marks on it. I have seen a video clip of clown loaches have a niggel but never dieing. Anyways i am coming to the conclusion that they fought. What do you think??

It sounds that way to me. Few animals fight to the death over territory, but sometimes one will recieve a mortal wound. Course every now and then you'll have a weaker fish that will not back down. Sorry to hear about your loss.:(
yeah i am upset about it cos they are such a great fish with one of the best personality's.

Wow, I've never heard of this either. My Clowns do go at it occassionally, but have never lost any. :(
my clowns are quite the chasers! they are the most aggressive thing in my tank!
well i have seen them bite each other but never draw blood....when i pulled this dude out he was bleeding from his wounds.
