4 or 5 pellets total would probably be enough, until the clown loach gets larger. There is a Clown Loach on display at Shedd's Aquarium that is 15-17 inches and is over 80 years old (so they get large. )

I would drop 3 algae wafers and 2 shrimp pellets every day. That would include the protein of the shrimp without leaving out the necessary vegetable matter.
