Hey thank YOU for the support.

I’ve had these and your right about not chasing water parameters, I see so many just dropping tons of buffer to get the desired PH and it’s just a waste of money, especially since most hobbyists get their fish from LFS In their neighborhood which have the same parameters. Beautiful Fish and set up and love the fish room

Hey thanks!

Such a Stunning Fish! I have kept Albino Hecklii quite a few times successfully and the Three things I feel they need is Stable PH, Sandy Substate, and most of all a mostly veggie based diet of pellets and flakes….protein from what I’ve experienced is their long term downfall and will have them develop stomach/ swim bladder issues as they get into adulthood.

Love this setup. What kind of rock are you scaping with?

@Riffwaters Ай бұрын

Thanks! These are actually just landscaping rocks man-made for retention ponds and such.

So nice ! Whats the name of the long plant with the leaves outside?

@Riffwaters Ай бұрын

Those are Mangrove trees! :)

I'm not sure if I missed it or not but I would like to know more about the filtration on this tank and some of the others that you keep Thanks

Good idea for a future video!

Good day, fishkeeper! Love the info and those tanks. My question to you is, do you think a large datnoid tiger fish can be kept with cichlids ( not a dovi, red devil, or flower horn), but maybe a jaguar or an oscar? Thanks!

@Riffwaters Ай бұрын

Yea Datnoids can definitely go with Oscars, Severums, Vieja, etc.

@coachj4738 Ай бұрын

Thanks what about jaguar?

@Riffwaters Ай бұрын

@@coachj4738 I don't have any experience with Jaguars so I couldn't say. Sorry.

@coachj4738 Ай бұрын

@Riffwaters Thanks. Do you still have those starry night cichlids and if so how old are they?

Great video and I’m now looking to get some of these for my 75 with built in Wet/Dry filter….you mentioned a pair in a 75 and that seems like a very light fish load….what are thoughts on 5 total (1 male with 4 females) or if only a pair will be okay together what other fish do you recommend with them in this tank?

@Riffwaters 23 күн бұрын

In a 75g I think 1 male and 3 females would work. I would personally be hesitant on 4 females. Also, Congo Tetras would be very cool tank mates. Best wishes!

We have some in our store over here in South Africa. Dying to take some home but I'm unsure about them with my discus. These guys eat like savages.

@Riffwaters Ай бұрын

Oh yea they'd be beautiful with Discus, but I agree with your caution on keeping them together. And cool to hear from someone in South Africa. Thanks for watching!
