Completely agree, gone thru this, too. The first clue didn't hold it and the background poped up after filling.... same procedure again.

Dear Daniel: What you have there is Sturisoma guentheri, not Farlowella acus, commonly known as a "twig" or "whiptail catfish." A Farlowella acus can be acquired, for around $10.00. A Sturisoma guentheri runs about $60.00. For me, a Sturisoma guentheri would not be desirable, as it destroys plant leaves. But, I’m pleased to see that you got one. I’m sure you will give it the best of care. Thank you, for sharing this interesting and informative, species profile. All my best, Sincerely, E. J. Brinegar

A great species and another top profile Daniel

Really interesting fish and great species profile, Daniel! Hope you have a nice weekend 🙂👍

Never seen this fish species in my own country, i think its beautiful. Nice share boss

It's so ugly I can't stop looking. LOL Wild little cat!

I’ll be honest it’s above my skill level, it’s like ottocinclus x10 lol but one day 👍👍

Beautiful looking cat Daniel

I have one housed with more territorial bristlenoses. They're not much larger so it's holding it's own when they get boisterous during feeding time. I worry more about that trailing fin ray, so I don't house it with large enough cichlids to just chomp on those features.

That is one cool cat my friend!! Great profile

I have the fx2 but ive put the bio media rings in loosely.What size media bags are you using for your fx2

good looking fish

Do you just have one of theses on your tank I just got a Rio 350 and was thinking of changing to this not a fan of the led tubes they are so fragile and does it give as much light as the original one

They are such a weird looking, yet quite cool fish. The part where it was on the side glass looked like it was smiling. Thanks for the species spotlight. <•))))~{

Cool fish mate. I agree about the price tag encouraging one to respect the fish.

Great video .. i love these fish ( i am a massive fan of all catfish ) i had one a while back with my corydoras and it loved the little soft cory sticks i used to feed

1st full comment at the end mate!🙂❤️👍🏻--it is a very intriguing species to consider for a nice peaceful tank? And as mentioned with shrimp as a novelty. fantastic species profile Daniel so glad to have seen this❤🙂

Do you think neon tetras would like guppy grass? It's an interesting plant. Thanks.

I had a right problem with black trumpet snails so i put 7 assassin snail in ( witch i called the magnificent 7 after the film 😂) and within 6 mths all the trumpet snails had gone 🎉

I got these guys for free, I guess they hitched a ride on the plants I ordered, now I'm just setting up a new tank just for them, damn sneaky little bastards 😂

Cool video. De you a fan of rummy nose tetra? I love my rummy nose, and saw these fish featured in your video and thought someday I might have a tank of them.

Had a flex the filter is poo the nano aqua one filters are so much better more area for media in the aqua one

It took me forever to find a quiet hang on filter. Yours is as super loud as most on the market. It took forever to find one that did not suck. Keep looking for quieter ones :)

How do you turn off the led light?

I've recently bought 2 assassins and boi they was fascinating watching them take down tge bladder snails that had infested my tank🙈😜I love watching them🥰

Is that the Rio 180? I am not sure which length I should buy, several of them cover the 100 cm width of the Rio. If you have the 180, what Model is your lamp? Thx a lot, great videos btw 😊

Great colour on Mal's shrimp there. Did you buy the drip acclimation steadying tool? Was it online or an aquarium store?

good luck to the new colony!

Very nice! I have a 450 ltr community tank with a few cherries, as well as a 40 ltr shrimp tank. One day after I had fed the fish I noticed some shrimp were feeding on the Aqua care soft colour granules, so I decided to try a few in my shrimp tank. They absolutely love them. Sometimes I feed the shrimp an inch of banana on the end of a stainless steel teaspoon, nettle leaves blanched and cooled, and also frozen bloodworm thawed in tank water. All are devoured with relish!

Congrats on the new shrimp, they are beauties!!!

Nice Shrimp and good on Andrew for doing what he did 💯

Charity event for such a worthy cause. The shrimp look great and healthy . Nice, perfect acclimation. I'm glad you got them. <•))))~{

Colorful little guys, I like the way you acclimated them to your tanks water, best of luck with them Daniel.

I love those yellow shrimp! Mal did a great job and congrats on your win, Daniel! Great advice too on the tank and the drip acclimation 🙂👍

Darn good looking shrimp Daniel.

Look good i get all my shrimp from ebay order monday come tuesday but these guys look handsome

Great work ... hmm mal has mugs sheesh

Was a good charity event. Hard to beat a bit of fishy bingo! Best of luck with the new shrimp!

I’m pleased your happy with them Daniel , and massive respect to Andrew(aquarium daily) for hosting the week long charity event 👍👍👍👍

I love shrimp but always have problems keeping them im ok with saltwater shrimp … would love to set up a small tank with shrimp was wondering if my fluval evo 13.5 gallon would be ok what do you think

Hello, i want to buy this aquarium fir my turtle can u say how much is the gao between middle bar and aquarium glass in cm cuz i need to put an above tank basking spot for her and idk if i can

I like this video. Thought I'd better comment again since when I closed my other channel down all the previous comments disappeared😅

Did your filter come glued to the tank?

pretty cool light!

Question why cant you jusy sprinkle them in?

What type of catfish are those?

Awesome!

You can put a fitting black wrap at the outside of the glass covering the filter. Properly done, nobody will notice. Thanks for your clear review.

Thanks mum! “Not even a bag of sugar” 😆😆 That’s a super sweet fit there! Man it’s really thin! Very nice how it connects to an app Daniel! Unlimited potential is really fun and playing with different lights and colors is so fun! Well we would agree that mission accomplishment has been achieved! Have a wonderful week playing with your wonderful new toy Daniel! 😀😀👍👍

Great video, but it’s important the air pump sits above the Water Level. 😎🙌🏻
