I've seen some larger clown loaches at SIG meetings and at about 4-5" they were over 10 years old.
The choice is entirely up to you, we're are here to provide some suggestions to your problem.

Xoomer,
Thanks for the comments regarding your experiences with these fish. Having never owned a Loach, I have no experiences with this species, so I obtained my information from
http://www.loaches.com/, which is the
Loaches Online website. Loaches Online is an excellent website totally dedicated to Loaches and the hobbyists who collect them. In any event, I don't have a Snail problem. It was originally posted by "Seasick", I was just adding my comments from my experiences with controlling Snails.
