I bought a Hillstream Loach two weeks ago, He/She lives in a 12"x 15"x 24" tank with a goldfish and a Shubunkin. I have had mixed opinions as to whether this is an ideal situation for all fish concerned.
My goldfish and Shubunkin have stopped eating and sit on the bottom of the tank, as described in this thread:

Do loaches turn from shy, quiet fish in the day to evil aggressive fish at night?
I have read on another forum that loaches will chew on goldfish. Is this right? Everyone I have spoken to about this says it's not true and that they are COMPLETELY safe to share a home with goldies!!
I am worried about my loach not eating his algae wafers (fed to him due to there being no algae in the tank)
I would appreciate as much information on them as possible, I have looked them up on the internet but not found much.
Does anyone on here have them?
Is my tank big enough, for these three fish?
Any help at all would be appreciated
