  1. clown loaches are best in schools of 4+, but 3 is ok. they will eventually get to about a foot long, so it would be better to have them in at least 70 gallons-they are active schoolers and do good with lots of space. the angelfish would be fine, though. these fish are compatible with:

    *school of 6+, 4 is ok for cories/otos

    livebearers

    large tetras* (definately not neons/cardinals-angelfish naturally eat these in the wild)

    danios*

    hatchetfish*

    red tail shark (only one)

    otoclincus algae eater (do best with live plants)*

    cories*

    dwarf plecos

    african upside down catfish

    other loaches*

    rams

    killifish

    gouramis

    rainbowfish*

    rasboras*

    freshwater shrimp

    live plants


  2. Depends on your tank size.  Give that info, and it will allow for decent answers.

  3. Angelfish get along great with Large Tetras (not the tiny neons) and Silver Dollar fish get along great as do Swordtails Mollies and Platies. Avoid putting Guppies in with your Angelfish is the Angels do tend to eat them. Other fish that you can include in the tank include Gouramis, More Clown Loaches, Bala Sharks and Giant Danios.The Clown Loaches are good community fish, they will tolerate other tank mates as well as enjoy other members of their own species.
