Besides waiting and enticing with food (which would both likely work), you could try adding three Yoyo loaches. They're not bashful, and when the Clowns see them getting all the good food because they're there as soon as you drop in some flakes, the Clowns will catch on. They will always spook easier than your other fish, but with time, they should be less bashful than they are now.
Clown loaches don't come out
- Thread starter Ave
- Start date
I'm happy to announce that I have had those clown loaches for two months by now and everyone is well and happy and they are always out and about! Their schedule seems to be different from what people tell here. They are supposed to come out when the lights go out, but mine are out all day. About 6 pm they go hiding and I don't see them at night anymore, in spite of the fact that light are out.
They were reluctant to eat the first 2 weeks but now they are greedy and fight for food. Even come to surface to catch flakes.
And I am happy to see this
Sounds good, actually sounds very much like mine. Keep up the good work

I have six that I never see. They all pile into there cave and only come out when the biggest one comes out first but if I walk into the room the freak out. They hate me cause I always have my hands in the tank.
