I have a Betta in a 37 gallon bow front with a colony of Bristlenose plecos.

@Joe Mama thats not correct. Larger the tank and more hiding spaces and plants bettas are happy

@Joe Mama yes and tank mates are good like if u keep some mdeium sized tetras (nonfin nippers and peaceful) they would like it

@Joe Mama short finned bettas don't get stressed if its hard for them to swim and there aren't enough resting places long finned bettas get stressed.

Me too! He went from a tiny bowl into mine!

They are very cool fish to keep!

Kynan Miels same

I’m lucky to live near 6 fish stores in a 10 mile radius and all of them are stocked with all of the fish mentioned lol.

@@joshrealms244 lucky

Order them online

Thanks!

Thank you!

Thank you!

Thank You!

Thanks, hopefully!

He sure did!!! Best video for 29gs

Hope it helps!

Thank you!

Did it go well?

Thank you!

Thank you!

Thank you!

Thanks, they are close related to the African bush fish aka African leaf fish

Thank you!

Thank you!

Thank you

They are with each other. Only get one unless you have a really large tank.

Thank you!

Thanks

I can imagine, my paradise gourami love attention too!

I saw some for a sale on aquabid.com, wetspottropicals and jonahsaquarium.com

I have six of them, beautiful. Elassoma evergladei i think is the latin name.

I cant find them in Europe 😢

Thank you

Awesome!

Thank you

Thank you!

@@dwsdarius your welcome

Thank you!

Thanks, but I actually gave that tank away last year!

Avacado puffers and Amazon puffers could work in this sized tank

Lots of color and activity!

Really? I said a group because someone described them like larger pea puffers, but I never actually kept them yet

@@dwsdarius so yes they are a lot like pea puffers, generally don't want to keep pea puffers in large groups either, once they reach sexual maturity a group of pea puffers get nasty. When it comes to pea puffers I go with a male and two females in a well planted 10 gallon. Which seems like a lot of tank for three of them until you watch them interact. As for red red eye red tails a 40 breeder in like a 10 gallon for a trio, it seems like a lot of tank for 3 until you see them get at each other. The reason I get a large group of pea puffer, because when in the store they are to young to sex, but once they are old enough, I keep the ones I want and find homes for the ones that aren't getting along so well. Their are big personality difference in between all puffers, you can get ones that are sweet as peach pie and other that absolute terrors and as time goes on the sweethearts can get dark while the pycos calm down. I think that's why people can have such differing opinions based off of experiences. Having kept both for a good many years this is what seems to work for me. 1male 2 female per 10 gallons for pea puffers, 1male 2 females per 40 gallons for red eye red tails. Any water amounts lower than that I go with a single puffer

Lol, thanks! Yes that's how I feel with every tank I setup!

Don't know of you're into amphibians or not, but I've had my axolotl for 4 years now and have loved him, they're by far the most durable thing ive ever cared for. One would be super happy in a 29.

Well the mix could work, but a pair of angel fish may not be best in this sized tank because if they are a mated pair they can become very territorial which would be bad in this size tank, if they are not a mated pair, then the most dominate will be aggressive towards the least dominate angel fish and the could result in death or stress...so 1 angel fish would be best. As for the mollies, to prevent aggression between males I'd recommend 1 male and the rest females.

Thank You!

Christian P No you cant stop spreading that around

Well, if there overstocked they can’t really establish territory so in a bad way it works

yellow labs and demasoni can work but docile fish like peacocks will be harmed and zebras get pretty big

@@goldfishthedestroyer3233 only way to have a colony of demasoni it seems

That Severum will still hit 7 inches regardless of tank size...currently my 7 inch red spotted severum man handles my 8 inch red terror cichlid...so be cautious!!!

DWSDARIUS FISH TANKS yeah I am sure my red spotted severum is the alpha cichlid then blood red then my firemouth. I’ll post a video of my tank and get your idea trying to figure out a light set up right now

DWSDARIUS FISH TANKS do a video of your red I wanna see what mine will look like in future please lol

You have to look at the flow rate, if its blowing the shrimp, fish and plants around a lot and has a strong current in the tank it can be too much, especially being that puffers like calmer waters. Shrimps with puffers...risky; puffers love to eat...the shrimp will be tempting for them, plants will help...but the risk is still there!

As much as I like captive bred animals, amano shrimp might be better as they're generally bigger bodied and can more likely hold their own.

I got peapuffers but had to fish the otos out they had nipped fins. I still have neocardina shrimps in there though the peapuffers dont eat the adults but im sure they eat some babies but the smartest strongest still survive cause my colony is growing but slower then in my other tanks

Hello lol

You do it

I was thinking this during the whole video

Roseline sharks can grow to 6" and love swimming space so that size tank is rather small, so only 4...with maybe 4-6 corydoras

That's definitely a option...thanks!

A expensive option for sure! I was going to do shell dwellers for my 20... 22 dollars a fish... I'm a broke guy so yeah.. lmao

@@dwsdarius O damn they are cheap here, in the shop for 5-7,50 euro's and people sell them for like 1,50-3,- (multi's) Others are around 10-17,50

A firemout would get to big, but any apistogramma or ram could work

The puffer and shrimp combo is a no go because the puffer may try to eat the shrimp, same with the killifish...the Dario, rasbora and kuhli combo sounds like it would look very cool

Kilifish eat neon tetras, i had 10 and in 12 hours i had 5... 2 where eaten and 3 where scared into the filter...

Yeah, I have changes the stocking alot now. 6 green fire tetra, 1 powder blue dwarf gourami, blue bolt shrimp and orange rili shrimp. I have a video on my tank on my channel :)

Wetspottropicalfish.com, bluegrassaquatics.com, liveaquaria.com, some can be found on ebay but use caution

Trins Fish just had them in stock, sold out now but maybe he'll get them back

2-3 Kuhli loaches? Cory cats, a scarlet badis...

Thx

The pair of fire mouths as adults might be cramped with males being able to reach 6 inches

You have to search around, you can find most on ebay, others at wetspottropicalfish.com...some on aquabid as well

Coryadorus are the best imo. Other catfish that can fit in that size tank will be unnoticeable because of their nocturnal behavior; catfish like the south american bumblebee catfish, stone catfish, flagtail porthole catfish...this video has more: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nbNxh8Z109TXfXk.html

Thanks, yeah their are a few awesome tetra colonies that could work well

Of course. Most of us are simply going to put a schooling fish of tetras in our 29 gallon tanks and a few side fish.

A school of fish between 1-2 inches...probably 12-15

DWSDARIUS FISH TANKS awesome thanks

That's cool, hopefully it works out with the gourami...the can be aggressive towards their own kind

Pelvicachromis taeniatus 'Nigerian red'...really no common name. The right photo and the middle photo are of the same species...the one on the right just showing breeding colors

@@dwsdarius so not just a variation of pelvicachromis pulcher?

It is beautiful.

You can always buy fish online.

@@Timothy_Andrews dont got a card im too young and dont wanna use my parent's i like to work for what i want

Different danio...some of the most colorful being purple passion danio and glow light danio. Certain barbs can also live in a hillstream tank like Odessa barbs or cherry barbs. If you mix US native fish you have choices like rainbow dace and black nose dace

Is there any bigger sized fish that can be in a hillstream tank? Also, is there any type if tetra or rasboras?

@@gametimehd7001 Look into hillstream trout

Yes a pair of convicts can do well in a 29g

They won't from my experience

Nope they won't. I have mine in a tank with ghost and bamboo shrimp.

I don't really have much experience with saltwater fish

I would keep a mix of hillstream loachs (both reticulated and borneo suckers) maybe 7-8 each, a pair of dwarf goby (many different types, but only one pair per tank), a school of danio (one type in my opinion would look best), and maybe a few other mid level swimmers

What mid level swimmers?

Fish Profiles look up buffalo head cichlids. They’re hard to find but really cool and love fast flowing water

Sounds like an apisotogramma pair would work with them.

@@dwsdarius ok just because I had heard they can get a bit upset with Cory's

If they breed they will defend their nest from cory's...but I don't think that they will just attack cories

@@dwsdarius ended up getting a male apistogramma bitaeniata and hes very friendly with the cories. I dont have any plans on breeding

Yes sometimes the measurements are not 100% accurate, mine actually measured 30 1/4 x 12 1/2 x 18 3/4 inches outside, I never measured inside but you know if I'd probably lose 3 or 4 gallons

10-15 if they are the only fish in the tank...if you plan on having more fish besides them you will have to decrease the total

@@dwsdarius thanks, is that including the bottom feeders? cory panda

Yes its not enough space for territory distribution

@@dwsdarius ok thanks

At 50 seconds

That's a juvenile geophagus brasiliensis

Cool i bought one at 6 inches for $12 is that a good deal. And ty for the reply my lfs called it a turquoise cichlid

I wish this was my job, but its not...I work a regular 9am-5pm, although now its more like 7am-8pm😪

Sounds like a active tank!

How many snails now😂

BenjaminW8809 now I just have like 8 guppies, two red eye tetras, and w black skirt tetras. One nerite snail.

Leaf Fish, male convict cichlid, peppermint crocodile fish...

DWSDARIUS FISH TANKS hmm, ok. So those goes in a 30 tall right. I was just unsure that those u said in the video were mostly for longer tanks.

Leaf fish, especially south American leaf fish will work with your design...so if you include a good stick (driftwood) scape, they won't mind that tank size...same with the crocodile fish...which is very similar to a gourami , and you know gourami spend a lot of time going up and down to take breaths from the surface...so it also won't mind the tall tank. A solo convict cichlid, given that you spend a lot of time in front of it...would spend the majority of its time swimming in circle trying to get you to feed it (similar behavior with most cichlids kept solo)...so I also believe that it could work in that tank size

DWSDARIUS FISH TANKS oh OK, thanks

DWSDARIUS FISH TANKS just another quastion. Are convic rare in «big» pet stores, since i have keept blue ram so i now much fun i had keeping cichlids. But my problem is that i now of lots of small pet store(mostly inside a mall) and only one «big» one. Sooo, i would like to now if those are rare or not, since taken out all my fish from my 30 this summer so i dont want to wait 3 months for some custom delivery. And i have though about buying it online, but im not sure, sinces lots of things could go bad. So are convits rare?

Sometimes its best to keep pictus catfish in groups of their own kind that way they can spread their aggression among each other. If you don't have space for more or just don't want more than consider the fish your mixing them with, they do best with more aggressive fish like south and central american cichlids

I got other things in there like plecos and I did try get one more the store ran out but I think the problem is it's really bored in my tank even tho he's got loads of space it keeps swiming up and down the glass

Aquascaper MC 3 in an 8 GALLON, how long did they live?

@@rhinodoesstuff9477 a month probably

An arowana

Some kinds of fish have different personalities, and yours were pretty chill. Some gourami are assholes.

My female Pearl Gourami is an arshole. She chases everything at feeding time and for about 2 hours afterwards. But in the evening when the lights dim she doesn't care if they swim circles around her.
