Ya its strange just laying there like that I went and got the net to fish him out cause I thought he was dead and when I got by the tank he just swam up to the top with the rest waiting for food

Ha ha I thought the dam thing was dead. They just hang out and relax in the dead position.

That's how they got the name "clown loach" they sleep on their sides or in weird ways.
