Hello all,

I am a new cichlid hobbiest. I have a 50 tall tank I stocked it with 8 clan loaches and a chocolate pleco. I added a baby EBJD yesterday and he seems to think he is a clown loach. I am thinking since I added him last he will be peaceful to the loaches as he ages a becomes larger than them.

You may be misinformed on a couple of fronts. BlueJack is a fragile, slow growing fish that may reach 6 or 7 ins. The loaches are also slow growing, but will easily grow to a foot long. A full grown CL won't fit in a 50 tall even by itself

thank you so much for your info on how I am doing everything wrong!

When they outgrow this tank I will set up a bigger one.
