Clowns all the way. They are just simply amazing to watch.

Clowns. Great fish, they make you laugh which is good for the soul. I've got one that sits in it's hideyhole upside-down watching the world go by.

Can I vote for both?
Seriously, I love clowns and think they are beautiful and interesting... BUT, cories are much more versatile... and I can keep them in my 55 gal! So, I guess I have to vote for cories-my albinos are awesome.

Cories - they'll take up less bioload, allowing more shellie room!

No, really, I prefer cories. I see the appeal of Clowns, definitely (I have dozens of old lists - I love lists - of stock plans for my 125 that confirm this by including several Clowns), but cories are just too cute, fun, and cute to pass up (says the girl who just returned all of hers).

If you are going to make this thread competitive, Alex, then I have to chime in for cories, though my reasons have already been mentioned by others.

Gotta go with the clowns. As someone else mentioned, they also remind me of my dogs in how they snuffle around the tank. Then there is the coloring. The orange/black stripes seem so much more exotic to me.

Cories, because they are generally cheaper and hardier.

I don't think you need restate the score every time somebody make a post.

It seems like you're just doing it to get your post count up...

who really cares about the post count
a small fry should get the same amount of respect as a moderator

you might care if youre a big fish or a small fry but i couldnt really give a stuff.

also lets say MRS Y a moderator and MR X a smally fry it dosent mean that MRS Y is better at the hobby then MR X it basically just means that MRS Y has simply been on the site for longer or does more posts each day it shows nothing about commitment or knoledge about fish

im sorry if i may have offended some people but that is just how i feel!!!!!

This has nothing to do with respect, moderators, or newbies, I was just stating that practically every other post in this thread is yours saying the score. This really isn't necessary, as people can tell which one is getting more "votes" just by reading the thread.

Let's keep this nice here. Yes, he is posting quite often, but that is up to him. If a moderator decides that he's making pointless posts, then his post count will go down. Nothing to it. Otherwise, just don't bother. It isn't worth arguing over.



And when he gets to Heaven, to Saint Peter he will tell: "One more Marine reporting, Sir! I've served my time in Hell."

If your tank is big enough...keep both This wouldn't be a problem right

I can't really say, never kept clown loaches so my vote would be biased.

EDIT: What they are trying to say is that your score count is kind of spam. It is not neccessary to count each one. Its just taking up space and disrupting the 'flow' of this thread. Don't be offended.

clowns, definately. I'm sorry, but cories just look so plain and boring (not that i have ever had them). Clown loaches are so fun to watch, however I will admit the care of these creatures is not easy work.
