I keep them 2 clown loaches and an electric blue together fine in a 60 gallon tank. They don't seem to bother each other at all.

THey will do great in a tank of that size with the clowns. They shouldnt bother them at all and will have room to claim there own territory. Have any pics of your clowns.

Just an update I did infact get an electric blue. He gets along fine with the others. He does not seen to want to eat though he spits everything out. Things iv tryed frozen bloodworms plankton hbh cichlid flakes spirolina. iv had him now for 3 days.

His tankmates for now are ob peacock, swallowtail peacock, sunshine peacock and the clown loaches. The peacocks are all males

How big are the peacocks. It sounds like a nice tank too bad you don't have a pic.

sounds like your electric blue has the symptoms of bloat. go to cichlid-forum.com and check out the illness, health & nutrition thread. there is a sticky message that details how to cure him. good luck.
also, are you sure you are quaranteeing your fish properly? your fish should not get ich everytime you add a fish. how long do you quaranteen them for? just curious, because clown loaches are supposed to be pretty tough to cure.
