Companion for Dwarf Gourami & Clown Loach

[Gomisan]

A jumper ....

It's academic now, whether the Loach should have been in the tank. I found him on the floor this morning.

I have no idea what happened. He hadn't shown any signs previously of being a jumper. But the tank, though glass covered, has a cut-out in the glass for the filter/pipes/cables etc. He must have jumped through that, and flopped about on top till he fell off.

I'm really upset, he was like a little puppy or something, always sniffing about the tank, and excited to see you.

i hate to be blunt, but that was way too small for a loach. Loaches MUST have other loaches to be happy and healthy. They are very playful and companionship is a must. The tank was way too small and unfortunately, you found that out the hard way. Sorry for your loss. In the future, please research before you buy fish.
