A Clown Loach or Tiger Botia (Botia macracanthus) is a freshwater fish belonging to the loach family ( Cobitidae). Originating in Indonesia on the islands of Sumatra and Borneo, it is commonly kept as a pet in tropical aquaria. They have an orange fins with 3 black bands on a yellowish body and some barbels about their mouth. They grow slowly to a maximum length of 11.8 in (30.0 cm).
A harmless, very active, social fish, they are best kept in groups of 5 or more. When kept in smaller groups, they may spend more time hiding under obstacles in the water. They natively live in a tropical climate and prefer water with a 5.0 - 8.0 pHAlternate uses: see Ph pH (potential (of) hydrogen) is a measure of the concentration of hydrogen ions (H+) in a solution and, therefore, its acidity or alkalinity. The concept was introduced by S. Sorensen in 1909. The p stands for the German potenz mean, a water hardness of 5.0 - 12.0 dGHDegrees of General Hardness (dGH) is a unit of water hardness, specifically of General Hardness. General Hardness is a measure for the number of calcium and magnesium cations per volume of water. 1 dGH corresponds to 10 mg of calcium oxide or magnesium ox, and an ideal temperature range of 77 - 86 °FThis article is about the temperature scale; see also Fahrenheit graphics API. Fahrenheit is a temperature scale named after the German physicist Gabriel Fahrenheit ( 1686 1736), who proposed it in 1724. In this scale, the freezing point of water is 32 de (25 - 30 °CThe degree Celsius (°C) is a unit of temperature named after the Swedish astronomer Anders Celsius ( 1701 1744), who first proposed it in 1742. The Celsius temperature scale was designed so that the freezing point of water is 0 degrees, and the boiling po).
