Are these the
fish for your 85litre tank kelvin? If so, then I would suggest a re-think. I think your previous question about how many
fish you could have gave an answer of 18-19" of
fish, well a single clown loach can grow to nearly that size!
3 clown loaches will give you about 54" of
fish2 Panda Corydoras will give you about 4" of
fish1 Silver dollar gives you about 5" of
fish2 ram cichlids gives you about 6" of
fish1 Common pleco gives you about 12" of
fish 81" of
fish in total (roughly) and way above the amount your size tank could handle.
If I were you I would forget completely about the Clown Loaches, Silver dollar and Common pleco as they all need a big tank.
Blue rams (Ram Cichlid) are lovely
fish that I think like to be kept in groups. They are not recommended for beginners and have specific requirements as far as pH is concerned, but I think that some say that they can adjust to a slight variation in that.
Panda Corydoras are again a smaller
fish that like to be kept in groups rather than alone or as a pair.
Either of those two
fish may be ok, depending on your tank set up etc, but the others I would forget about.
