In my fish tank I lost four loaches that were getting pretty big and now have to start over. Does anyone know how to get them to grow really fast?? I want some big ones!!!

clown loaches are a slow growing fish but there is one thing to help just feed it good and keep the water clean and cycled and the best thing to feed is brine shrimp that will make them grow the fastest you can buy frozen or raise your own just search on yahoo for raising brine shrimp and it will give you all the info you need it is a very easy thing to do but like i said it is just as easy to buy frozen but not as nutritious

Basically you don't. Clown loaches are a slow growing species and will only grow at a certain speed no matter what you try. The best think to do is go for healthy growth by keeping the tank clean and feeding a nice variety of foods.

They strengthen very gradual that's why you not often see super ones and once you do they fee and arm and a leg. the biggest I ever grew the place approximately 6-7" and this took years for them to strengthen to that length in an eighty gallon tank.

Keep the water clean, change 25% every alternative day, maintain temperature at 27 degree C, and feed with frozen or live blood worms. Their growth rate will increase.

They grow at their own rate. Unless you keep one of them in a really big tank, then he'll grow to adapt to the tank size.
