depends on the tank size, 10 loaches is alot. i have seen 1 inch clowns sold for 12 dollars so the large one is cheap, i dont think there should be any problems, but ask clowny, she knows alot more than i do.

I don't know how prices generally are in Malaysia, but $5 for a five-inch clown is an extremely good price in the Washington DC area.

If I recall correctly from a previous post, your large clown loach will get a long fine with your smaller ones.

$1 for 1.75 in. clown loach, where? I can get them for $3.99-$6.99 for that size depending where i would go. The big 5 in. one will probably just be the leader of the pack in your tank. It won't harm the others. how big is your tank?

They will all be fine together & you're very lucky with those prices.

My large and small get on very well but they do not school or share the same cave areas.

Make sure you have plenty of areas for all of them.
