Hi Cory! I just wanted to say that I love your channel. I’ve been a fan and following your journey for a couple of years now. Your videos inspired me to delve further into the hobby by starting a planted tank and trying out new fish. Thank you for providing new fish keepers such educational and entertaining videos. Also, thanks to you, I started a KZfaq channel last week where I post light-hearted, short videos of the little creatures in my first planted tank. Wish you all the best!

The dojo loaches have always fascinated me. The Royal Farlowella is one of my favorite fish! Thanks for sharing about these guys. I really try to find fish that will work with my water! This was extremely helpful Cory and Aquarium Co-op!! Hope you guys have a great day!!🙏🌿🐟🌿💚

From my experience with a few different rainbow sharks, they start off small and active but when they get bigger (they get surprisingly big) they get very territorial and mean to anything smaller or that gets near their territory. Definitely watch what you keep with them and be mindful of having caves/driftwood for them.

@schmidtcasey1 3 жыл бұрын

I had a pair of Acara that were laying eggs, I had them in a 72 gallon tank with cardinal Tetras and black neons. I've also kept them with Blue Emperor Tetras as well. They primarily left the Tetras alone, however after I moved the female into a 40 gallon tank with no other Acaras, she started to go after them. My male was always very calm, though he was never by himself with just smaller fish.
