Re: Clown loach eating other fish. Loaches are opportunistic, while they don't typically hunt other fish if they see an opportunity to eat a smaller fish they will. Some of the more aggressive Botiine loaches will sometimes go after smaller fish.

Tankmates. Peaceful with its own and other species, it prefers to have companions with which it will form a school. Virtually all non-aggressive fish are suitable as tankmates for clown loaches. Because they prefer to live in schools, it's wise to keep three or more in a group.
Can I keep one clown loach?
You can keep them in singles but I believe they won't be as happy as they should be. I agree with Zagz. They are an active schooling fish and would be happier in a group. I had a single clown loach (it was a gift) for almost half a year.
