I’m upgrading to a larger tank and want to add some more fish. I have been looking at Altum Angelfish, silver Angelfish, other less aggressive Cichlids, Royal Pleco, butterfly fish, and Discuses. I have read many different times where people have loaches and aggressive fish together. Although I don’t know about keeping my loaches with aggressive fish I do want other cool fish that are compatible with loaches and loach water conditions. Any ideas? What does everyone else have with their clown loaches?
Clown Loach tank mates????

Just a suggestion.
see below for whats in my tank BE AWARE I AM A NOOB THOUGH, the bala sharks and the clowns seem to click the best so far it appears
Also be aware that his tank is too small to house the balas and the clowns when they're adults.

I will be getting a 110 gal. tank. I'm quite fond of the looks of Angelfish especially the Altum angelfish. Same goes for some cichlids. My number one goal is to add some color plus cool fish, and at the same time keeping the clown loaches healthy and happy.
Your cichlid doesn't beat up on your other fish? What about the ph difference that the loaches like compared to what the cichlids like?
Do you know the measurements on the 110? It sounds like you could keep your current stock, plus a few Altums.

No i don't know the measurements yet. Friend of a friends tank that i'm buying. What about the ph difference that the loaches like compared to what the Altums like?
They have overlapping ranges of what they like. Altums like ph anywhere from around 5 - 6.5 maybe 7. Clown loaches like between 6-7. Keep the water around 6 and you should be fine.
