This is the left half on the tank. It shows all four Clown Loaches on the gravel (orange and black) with several Convict Cichlids (thin black and white stripes) in the background. The left half of the tank is popular because a pair of convicts have spawned and taken over the right half of the tank.
This picture was taken looking through the left end of the tank. The front glass is on the right side of this picture. It shows a closer view of the Clown Loaches in the foreground. Two are resting on the bottom and two are "going vertical". They love to swim in the current which comes down the front glass. In the background are some of the Convict Cichlids.
A close-up view of two Clowns hanging out in one of their favorite places. The smaller one I've had for about a year. The larger one since 1995.
Convict Cichlids love to dig! Here is a small pit at the left end of the tank being dug by a Convict. A pair of them have spawned on the vertical rock on the right. The eggs were raided (eaten) by the largest male Convict who had fry of his own at the other end of the tank.
