Great info and appreciated. In my 29 gallon I have 2 adult angels, 6 cardinal tetras, 6 rummy nose tetras, 2 rams, Bristol nose pleco and 3 corys. It's been 2 years and I love the look and everyone looks happy and healthy :):)

Love that tank, you'd never get bored watching them !

I’m glad you mentioned the Mollies being difficult to keep. IMO, they are probably one of most difficult livebearers to keep because some can be semi-aggressive and fairly large. Cory from Aquarium Co Op, also mentions that some are raised in brackish water overseas and have difficulty adjusting to water in the US. Because of this, if you’re going to get a Molly, I’d say try to find a local breeder.

Jason, thank you so much for this amazing channel. I had several aquariums over the years when I was younger and am just getting back into the hobby. This channel has helped me catch up with what's new and some info that I never learned in my previous experiences.

Corydora catfish really are awesome fish.... they are "bottom dwellers" but they play all around and they sleep in nice cuddle piles... mine do this thing where they will swim into the current from the filter and then tip backwards to "surf" it back and then repeat... like you can TeLL that they are enjoying life and playing. You will never regret any tank space given to accommodate corydoras I only have 3 in my 20 gallon high with some tetras and shrimp... I want to go up to 5 but I haven't been able to find more panda catfish local.... and if I had a 20 long i would've not even included tetras and just done like panda corydoras with pygmy corydora and some shrimp with a floating hornwort to let the shrimp get out of the bottom commotion

Getting a 30 gallon tomorrow. Comes with everything for $60. A deal that was too hard to pass. But it is fully stocked with 30-50 platies. But I still like to keep an open mind in case I want to stock it with completely different fish.

I have 7 rummy nose tetras, 6 neons, 4 zebra danios, 6 kuhli loaches, some ghost shrimp, 1 clown pleco, 2 assassin snails and lots of blabber snails. It is a heavily planted tank with driftwood. I’m running a hang on back filter as well as a sponge filter. I have a bubble wall that seems to have improved their overall mood. I even have 3 feeder guppies who just ended up in the shrimp bag. I let them stay too. It sounds overcrowded but the tank operates in shifts. My night shift cleaning crew is the hidden part.

i realize this is an older comment, but mollies tend to be way more sensitive to water parameters. i believe they're actually meant for brackish water so they aren't really living their best lives in freshwater aquariums. if you simply just prefer mollies and have to have mollies, that's one thing, but if you're back and forth on either platys or mollies, always go platys imo. they are better in every way.

My 29 gallon for almost a year now: 4 adult angels 3 Bolivian rams One rainbow shark 3 pictus cats 11 Cory cats 1 bristlenose 10 scissortails 10 neons Sounds overcrowded but the key to success here is a lot of filtration and literally planted like a jungle. Makes for a fabulous tank.

I'm new to the hobby and started with 4 guppys and 4 platys in a 10 gallon. I underestimated how quickly guppys breed and now have 16 guppys and 4 platys. So I bought a used 30 gallon last night and I can't wait to start a whole new system in my 10 gallon as well as adding a new species to the 30 with the guppys. I'm thinking a pleco species (always liked how cool clown plecos look). I'm thinking cory cats and a type of gourami for the 10 gallon but we'll see!

If you haven't already stocked your 10g, and are still leaning toward cories and gourami, I would really suggest one of the smaller cories, such as pygmies, so you can have a larger group, and a sunset honey gourami, which generally have a pretty gentle demeanour, and are on on the smaller side, but still give you that great pop of colour.

Love Cory Cats. Truly a beginner fish! When I first started keeping fish I thought they just came in the "peppered" variety.... Lord was I wrong! I love the Julii Cory's or the Panda Cory's. Absolutely love watching them torpedo to the top and back down.

I was just watching this video for a second time. Regarding the comments on the tiger barbs and their tendency toward fin nipping and aggression, I'm a big advocate of snake skin barbs AKA Rohombo barbs instead. They have that same stunning black/orange stripe with an added green iridescence but in my experience they have absolutely none of the aggression of tiger barbs and they show no inclination toward fin nipping despite being kept with long finned tank mates, at least in my home. Snakeskin barbs are harder to find, but they are a great alternative to tiger barbs with a similar appearance, and mine have proven to be very hardy in terms of varying water parameters. (Also, as an aside, mine readily go for the Northfin community pellets, though it takes them a little while to adjust to new foods, whatever the brand.) I still see web sites that unfairly list the snake skin barb as "semi aggressive" and I can't help but wonder if this is simply because the tiger barb looms so large over the entire barb family.

If you have six guppies it might be kind of cool to let them breed? They can fill out a tank within a few months if allowed to do so. If not, you could easily have 12-15 in that size tank. Centerpiece fish with guppies? If your water is on the harder side that might be a little more difficult, but maybe a pearl gourami or honey gouramis? Keep in mind any centerpiece fish will probably eat guppy fry. You could even try a nicer pleco that stays under 6"? They would be fry safe.

Hi! I have a stocking question as someone very new to the hobby. I have a 29 gal tank, and in it I have a glo tetra and also a boesemani rainbowfish. I did not realize they were schooling fish. I feel bad that they are alone. I am not sure if my tank can accommodate the numbers needed to school them and was hoping for your input. Besides the two of them, I have two female bettas and a juvenile angelfish, a red tailed shark and three mystery snails. How many fish do you think I could support in my 29 gal tank?

I think it’s important for anyone new to the hobby to consider male to female ratio of each species. If you do a good job of making a nice home they will breed. Or the opposite too many males might be more aggressive to fight for hierarchy.

Could you do one of these for a 37 gallon tank?

I have a 29 gallon half cylinder aquarium. I was gonna make a plant wall on the back and maybe keep the foreground pretty open. Or make a focal point in the center for some cool schooling. Which do you think would turn out better? And which fish do you think would make a completely peaceful tank.

If it helps, I had dwarf gouramis vivid orang n blue, beautiful fish, in with my neon tetras.gouramis come in many variations,dwarf,honey etc, they are labyrinth fish,they can breathe out of water,but I don't suggest you try it,they also can shoot water from their mouth ! I feed hikari gold tropical food, the best.

Jist picked up my first 29g... I have now had or have just about every common tank size from 10g to 90g... Bristlenose kinda creep me out, are there other plecos that stay relatively small?

Hi, I was wondering your thoughts on having a community of Panda Cory, green neons, Odessa barbs and forktail rainbowfish for the top. Trying to decide on some good variety of colors and shapes that are peaceful for a new 29 gal tank. Thanks for your videos!

The Odessa might be a little assertive compared to the others? You could look at cherry barbs?

@@PrimeTimeAquatics thanks! Was looking at those too. Sounds like that’d be a better way to go with less aggression. All the best!

Omg, what's that tiny little one @ 6:30-6:45?! It's lower left of the screen next to the yellow guppy. He's so cute! Scissor tail & big black line from mouth to belly...
