In my 20 gallon aqaurium I have three neon tetras and a clown loach which have been togethor for a few months now. So far they have not bothered each other so it would work out if it is a small clown loach and you have other fish in the aquarium as well.

∙ 15y agoI bought one clown loach to go in with my long finned black skirt tetras and rasboras, and lets just say dont do it. He nipped my skirt tetras all the time, just destroyed their fins. I would say keep him with semi-aggressive fish and not tropical community fish.

If you choose to go for saltwater if you get a pair of clowns they should be mated or else theyll fight. Blue tangs need alot of space to swim hence needing a large tank they are very sensitive fish.

Can a clown fish live in a tank with a tetra and a guppie?
No, clown fish are marine fish and tetra and guppies are freshwater fish.
Can tropical fish live in 72 degree water?
That would depend on how warm the room temp is don't you think? Do you live in Alaska or Ecuador?
Can you get freshwater fish that look like clown fish?
Unfortunately there isn't any clown fish (Nemo) look alike that exists. The closest you may get with something stripey that is fresh water (but they are black & orange) would be a clown loach, but they need very large tanks (at least a 75 gallon) as they grow pretty big, and they are a more advanced hobbyist fish.

Can you put Malawi in with your clown loach and Asian sharks?
That's not a good idea at all. The Malawi cichlid will be far more aggressive than other of the other fish and will bully and beat them literally to death. Since both the Malawi and the clown loach like to live at the bottom of the tank and the Malawi will claim a large part of the bottom as his territory, this will lead to guaranteed problems for the poor clown loach. The shark os a little faster and would last a bit longer, but the Malawi would eventually tire him out and kill him as well. As if this weren't enough, the Malawi is from Africa, the shark from Asia (the Pacific rim area) and the clown loach is from South America. They all need quite different water quality parameters to do well at all. You could probably get away with mixing the sharks and the clown loach as they are all reasonably peaceful and wouldn't often cross paths since the loach lives on the bottom and the sharks swim higher in the water column. You'll need a fairly large tank for these species already (at least a 55 gallon tank) but if you have the room you could look into adding large danios, the larger types of gouramis (blue, gold, silver, snakeskin for example) and similar fair sized fish that are not aggressive but are large enough to defend themselves against the sharks if they begin to bully other fish as they sometimes do as they grow up.
