my tetra, barb, danio reef tank

[phillipj10]

Way too many fish for that tank!!!!

[TechnicolorTrifecta]

How big is your tank

[petstoreguy12]

way overstocked

[raiden1019]

add mo oscar there its a good combination.

[quickglimpse101]

Hmmm. O_o Interesting concept, though it seems a pity to compromise the comfort of the fish for the pleasure of the viewer.

Although it may be more budget friendly, this design seems flawed and confusing to me because I am aware of the incongruency in the environment(s) and animal(s) being displayed here.

[zezimadaan]

fucking ugly

[MLGGatewayGuy]

i thought you cant put tetras with barbs?

[faridnadirov]

please help me to find this music. name pls?

[LiliFromHali]

I thought coral reef was only for salt water tanks ...?

[Whatsyourfuture]

A large, male, Red Devil Cichlid would be a great addition to this tank.

[dinogreece]

love the blackwidow tetras...used to have some in cold water....

[nickparkes1]

cos that looks very natural! WELL DONE IN CREATING A NATURAL ENVIRONMENT FOR YOUR FISH!!!!

[Pokemongo1]

The plural of fish is NOT 'fishes'.

Idiots.

[superpiemonster]

stupid you shoudnt make it a marine theme and tetras hate barbs cool albino black neons though

[butterflikissies]

Beautiful tank setup. What kind of lighting is that? It makes the colors come to life!

[xsapx13]

ur setup is very cool though:)

[xsapx13]

dude they ar not glo fish ? u bn cheated then they ar just pink danios glos ar much deeper n glows in subdude light

[An3ggPlant1]

and that must of cost ALOT

[romeonmya]

Nice tank man. Everyone always got something negative to say. Its YOUR tank do as YOU please!

[Dale296]

This tank looks nice, fuck all those idiots who have a lot of negatives to say. The tank is awesome

[fishkeeping123]

66 fish lol! how many gallon? at least 70 gallon!

[SimsVideoVault]

This tank is very overpopulated... This will stress out the fish. Overpopulation puts ur fish in a very high risk of stress-related diseases that will spread to all other fish like wildfire.... I reccomend moving half the population to a seperate tank

[An3ggPlant1]

looks fine to meh, arnt fish social creatures? and isnt this better than having them stuffed in a poorly kept tank at walmart?

[SimsVideoVault]

Yes that is true. But if you look at it, these fish only have about 3 inches of swimming space between them. As fish are social creatures, they also can get fed up with each other!

[avijit44]

very very good idea low cost fish but look nice

u have a good idea of mixing marine environment with fresh water fish

[flyleafrules93]

how big is ur tank? it looks a little bit too crowded, but beautiful ^.^

[twilightfan2594]

It's beautiful! but how do u clean that tank??? lol and what size is ur tank btw? :)

[DaSquidsquad]

just a quick question will 4 albino tiger barbs(small) do fine with 2 spotted cory cats and a pictus cat in a 10 gallon? at least till i can move the pictus?

[An3ggPlant1]

yeah

[mardnaz]

what is the song pls?

[Mildewpants]

This will be good for a few months max, then everything will start dying. It's not hard to create tanks like this, looks very fake and just requires buying fish and ornaments and throwing them all together. Looks shit though.

[Apteronotus777]

ugly

[rolayndah]

how do you clean that tank ..do you take the whole reef out?

[pondguru]

I think you've done an excellent job of making it look like a reef tank. What is the song please? Sounds like Enigma but I don't recognise it and its killing me not to know.....

[YouJewb]

LOL HAHAHAHA so stupid

[vhdvhd12]

You like the number FOUR dont you?

4 this 4 that

lol

[jms9618]

Absolutely terrible. Not only is it a fake reef tank but you put the worst seriously most dumb fish you could have

[jquick09]

how big is your tank?!?! lol

i bet those giant danios pick on the others. i bet the tiger barbs do too

[Gi21FF1n]

tigers do definatly. this tank is way over populated

[pablo2cabrera]

Very good tank, how big is it?

[sweeneylovetoby]

awsome fish tank i have some glo fish too!! Mine are red, yellow, and eletric green

[cyberfish104]

i dont put real plants cause when they die it makes my tank dirty so yeah its in ur different purpose and opinions but ur fish are over crowded

[BigBadBadger1]

Sticking fake plastic corals in a fresh water tank really doesnt constitute a reef

[redeyesthe20th]

lol so many fishs it looks like a feeder goldfish tank at a LFS

[fishdude401]

this is shit, get rid of the reef shit and start a bigger, reall tank

[mytoyz4u]

How many ended up surviving?

I hope you learned from this.

A general stocking rule would be 1 inch of fish per gallon. Even though I didn't see the whole tank at any one time, it looks to be anywhere from between 8-16 gallons. If all of those fish grew to an inch exactly (I know some of the species will grow longer), it would mean you could only house anywhere between 8 and 18 of those fish! Not 68!

Overstocking is deadly as I am sure you found out.

[NickoliAN87]

that general stocking isn't very accurate. It's based on how much waste the fish produces. Like tetra's do not have very much waste produced. Unlike the goldfish who can produce massive amounts of waste.

[fearlless81]

ARE YOU IDIOT?

[NotBatAtAll]

...and where are the plants? They are really important! Read a book.

The fish at 1:00 is already ill. By the way... meanwhile he is dead, isn`t he?

[japkevk]

70 fishes the would think:" please kill me, kill me!!!"

[somethingwithletters]

yer um im pretty sure reef is a saltwater type theme and notfreshwater and way too crowded

[IateCookie]

WOW, ur fish are in hell right now

[7jako7]

wtf bro man 70 fish and its ur NEW tank ???

[pauloxe]

cool...but wrong fishes choises... really they can be stressed

[VERHORSTUNG]

ugliest fish tank ever! this is like hell for fish!

[bananatree94]

this tank sucks

[zodiac2nd]

DISASTER COMBINATION OF FISHES

they must be stressed and sad, poor fishies

[bz476]

fresh water fishes have gone for a tour to the sea .. who is the guide?

[icelandbabe13]

i think you tank is soo stuning im thinking about changeing my tank from a 20 leter tank to a 40 and it is oing to be square and i have 2 tetras 2 corrys and 1 loach and 4 barbs do you hav any advise on decorating my tank and how many fish you think i could have in there

[nocityboy]

i know this might not be smart to say but i think a little overcrowded is good i mean fish dont have much to do so it is good if the are abble to be close and swim together

[Fortetennis]

i saw a black molly

[pupilove2]

so shut up

[petey65203]

whats the point of a fake reef?

[riseandfloat]

omg waste of time set up a real reef

[myoon87]

How can you set up a real reef in a fresh water tank. Think before you type.

[dennyh86]

holly molly you have a lot of fish

[mercurydust7]

Pretty tank but a little overcrowded-gotta watch the nitrite and amonia levels-I suggest upgrading to a 30+ gallon tank, and your fishies will be much happier with more room. ^_^

[mindabsence]

Terribly overstocked, I feel incredibly sorry for your fish. You should know better and be a better fish keeper too.

[alfonso908]

i hope your fish get ick or strees and die to put them out of misery

[sleepy1225]

mabuhay kuya, how big is your tank? its very inspiring. haha.

salamat

[japkevk]

glofish :O they where illegal in the netherlands

[phoenix7772006]

really? not here in the philippines.

[faridnadirov]

@phoenix7772006 please help me to find this song. name pls?

[japkevk]

66 fish in 10 gallons, do you love your fish? give them a bigger tank.. but your tank is beautifull, make of each 4 fishes 2 fishes and you have 33 thats much more better.. but your tank is still nice (y)

[sleepy1225]

What kind of lighting do you use?

Very nice tank set up btw.

[phoenix7772006]

ordinary white light and blue light bulb.

[japkevk]

can you give all the names of your fish??

[phoenix7772006]

just click the more info button located at the upper right side of ur screen, besides the date. you will see the names of the fishes.

[GoranMak]

That's nice. I am planning on doing a fresh water coral reef look as well. So I searched, and you came up. I have done some research on different fish to add as well. I have always had tanks. But wanna do the tropical coral reef look now. You did a wonderful job!

Don't know how many gallons yer tank is - but they look happy. And are small enough. Most Tetra's don't grow more than an inch anyway. And they do like to school, which adds to the look and feel. Good looking tank buddy!

[Ryanwood08]

wow dats hot and how many gallons is it

[Dillon1108]

holy crap too many fish

[amitalegaonkar]

if this is a 10 gal tank, ur makin a bad mistake, for every 1 inch on a fish, 1 gal for it. it looks like u hav like 15-20 fish in ther. i wud suggest a bigger tank.

[rawimpact]

You are wrong, stop giving out false information. You should actually read the "law of stock" before preaching it. LxWxH / Gallons = 1 not L / Gallons = 1. You have to take account the length, width, and height (in inches)

[amitalegaonkar]

ya, i made that comment wen i was a real fish newbie, and that's wat my dealer told me. but i've been picking up info by a real pro, and i learned that a six inch fish is equal to 216 1-inch fish. but stil, the most u can put in 1 gal is a three inch fish. sory if u found my comment offensive.

[sherryazure]

Comment on 1 inch per gallon (mentioned elsewhere) if fish is 10 inches long would ten gallon be correct (obviously not). So type of fish and needs (fast swimming schooling verses betta for example) need to be considered as well.

[jeka300]

nice

[phoenix7772006]

thanks

[Volthom]

how many gallons is this tank?

[imabadspeler]

It must be pretyt damn big.

[meldawgal]

That is perhaps the MOST overstocked tank I have ever seen. Boourns...

[jcstrides]

Beautiful yet overcrowded!

[iversunfan]

SOMEONE PLEASE REPLY!!!! HI I AM PLANNING ON GETTING 5 OR MAYBE SIX TIGER bArbs FOR MY TEN GALLON> WILL THEY BE FINE IN A TEN GALLON FOR THEY're LIFETIME AND WILL THEY BE hAPPY??? BY THE WAY I AM NOT PLAnnING ON PUTTING ANY OTHER FISH IN THE TANK JUST THE BARBS.

[lordfeint]

Yes, if you keep the tank well filtered and change about 25% of the water each week by using a syphon. (drain the BOTTOM over the substrate) The Tiger Barbs will do fine in a 10. Get 6-8 and they will shoal happily.

[Enjoilongisland]

a general rule is to have 1 inch of fish per gallon. Tiger barbs can reach 3 inches in length. so only about 3 adults per 10 gallons is best. BUT if you change filter media(every month) and water (weekly or bi-weekly,depending on fish load) 4 adults will do fine in a ten gallon, i would not go more than 5 max. Your system won't collapse if you put 12-15 inches of fish in a 10Gal. Just remember, the GENERAL rule 1 inch of ADULT fish per gallon can be bent a bit. just use it as a guide. good luck.

[PaintedHorseLover]

Hi I would think they would be ok if you you are filtered properly and good oxygen.

[phoenix7772006]

moment of peace

[japkevk]

a moment of peace?

[japkevk]

what's the name of the song? tell me please

[westonlieberum]

i have the biggest long fin tetra ever

[kumustaitschristina]

wow amazing aquairium. i have 3 serpae tetras and they act just the same as yours does. they are very shy and always hiding in my 30 gallon tank

[jojomodjo]

Extremely overstocked. Unless you reduce the amount of fish, they'll all be dead within 2 weeks.

[GUY23R]

are they dead yet?

[phoenix7772006]

they are still alive.

[GUY23R]

COOL LOOKS GD

[Jougomonkey]

Wow! Awesome tank! How did you make it? It looks so real! -Jougomonkey

[nzgoddess]

It looks pretty - especially love the pink fish at middle screen :30, is that one of the glo light danio's? Never seen them before and doubt they are available in NZ, but I love the colour ..

I agree with everyone else though, WAY to many fish for a small tank! And as it's been a few months since this was posted, you either separated these fish into other tanks, or they are all dead :(

[lostmangos]

My Aquariums only 10 gallons this doesnt look like 5 gallons espcecially full of coral and so many fish, if theres a sudden spike of nitrate,nitrite,or ammonia is wud surely be a mass extinction.

[japkevk]

what to do with algue on the reef?

[japkevk]

fake but very very nice (y)

[lostmangos]

Lovely choice of fish there :-)

[jonerez]

44 fish in a 5 gallon.

Thats like seven people in the three backseats of a car.

[preety14u]

It's like a mini china in there ROTFL.

[jcstrides]

beautiful but overstocked

[sushimagushi2]

i love the painted tetrasi have 2

[wnied]

Nice setup, but you have WAY too many fish in that tank. At most you really should only have 6 - 10 small fish. Your fish also need places to hide to feel comfortable enough to gain a security feeling. Otherwise their colors wont come out fully, and the stress of too many tank mates will begin to kill them off, not to mention the ammonia bloom.

[22175]

all those fish are gunna die u never put 65 fish in a 5 gall tank at the most put those fish in a 100 gall because they r gunna grow

[budgieowner]

how much water is in that tank?

[phoenix7772006]

that,s a 5 gallon tank.

[PaintedHorseLover]

You have that many fish in a 5 gallon tank? Love your plants a coral. Are they real or fake? Where did you purchase them. Love your tank. Very colorful.

[g465777]

oo ok i have hard water.

[and i know their fresh water lol]

i really love your tank :]

[phoenix7772006]

thank you very much. i have a new set up. bigger and better. cichlid artificial reef tank. i'l upload the video here someday. :-)

[PaintedHorseLover]

Hey I have really hard water. My fish are alive and doing good. Check out my video to see the fish I have and they are all alive and doing good with my hard water. I have a lot of the same fish this guy does.

[g465777]

are those fish hard or soft water??

i have hard water and im looking for little fish that live in hard water

[phoenix7772006]

here in the philippines, specially the province of tacloban, we have neutral water. not hard and not soft. this fishes (tetras) are softwater fishes.

[TheDarkToad]

Small African cichlids should be what ur looking for if your water is FRESHWATER!!! what's the Ph? Cuz I have a real Saltwater tank and I keep the ph at around 8.3. Even for hardwater Frashwater fish the ph should be 8.0-8.3

[betsybroddock]

Wow! What a beautiful set up. Two thumbs up! And I like the music too.

[phoenix7772006]

thanks
