Those fish will be just fine together, but require a lot of room.
Clown loaches should be kept in shoals, and can reach more than eight inches in captivity. Pacus are schooling fish, get very large, and can be very fast swimmers. They need a huge tank.

If you want to keep these fish together, be sure that you have the room.

I haven't done that tank yet, it's my inspiration though...a few years down the road. When I do, I will make sure it's thoroughly documented on here.

So, they should be fine? Well, I may have to get some Clowns in the near future.

My LFS has a HUGE like 18" pacu in a 75g tank (it might be a 55g) I have NO clue how this fish turns around in the tank, the only thing i can think of is he is moving his head tword the surface, and turning that way.

They used to have a 2.5' catfish, but they died when that hurricane hit and we got flooded.
