Hi Anyone can advice?
My clown loaches keep dying. Mostly is bloated stomach. At times, some with have bloated stomach+ pop eyes. What happen? I've tried partial water change and add salt. There must be a way to help? Please advice...?

Thank you,

check your water parameters.
they are quite sensitive to bad water.

Thought clown loaches, as they are scaleless, should not put too much salt or medication.

Anyway, sounds like dropsy. So far I have very little success with dropsy, but typical advice would be od does anti-bacteria medication, while the other school would say keep water parameter healthy (.e.g change 50% twice a week) and hope that the kidney is not stressed further and recover.
