My live-bearers tank

[crystalclearwolf]

very nice, for such a crowded-looking tank, it seems very relaxed

[archifan12]

i like the fishies

[impishmewithyou]

i love the tank set up you made! love the fishes too! i tried to do the same thing but i don't have PATIENCE!

[Jason99942]

@impishmewithyou Haha, yes I agree. These lush tanks look fantastic. Although they do require a fair degree of initial cost / maintenance. High output lights, whether they're fluorescent or halogen, appropriate substrate, fertilizer, CO2 injection and of course pruning.

Having said that, I have some low maintenance aquariums with Java Fern, Water Sprite (left floating) and Anubias Nana. I don't fertilize, and I just use stock fluorescent bulbs that came with the tank.

[llogan1988]

o yes im setting up a ank, just for endlers nice tank btw =D

[CamCool10]

how big is that tank?

[custudent12]

Fish tank step up is nice, but I bet after all them babies the tank turned a mess

[XPNCTNJAH]

[coffee1ify]

CCCCCCOOOOLLLLLL

[WaldoElectronics]

i love live-bearers!!!!! lol

[MrWati25]

As long as its heavily planted, and all the filtrations are working properly you should be fine. Fish tend to appreciate lots of company as long as conditions are nxt to perfect. Your tank looks clean. All you need to do is watch out for the "tank police" lmao the ones that prowl around and complain about too much fish. When I started my aquarium, I dumped 6 fish in one time. Have never lost one.

[jameswmoseley94]

now all you need is endlers livebearer to finish the pattern of all the livebearers lol

[Dzekute]

Someday I'll have only endlers. :)

[JeffAdamsPetChannel]

i have a guppy a platy a molly and a swordtail :-D. And I already had two sets of babies already. Check out my tanks!

[alexiluver]

u should get two silver sharks and put them in the tank and the next 5 min ur other fish are gone

[TheAquariumKid]

u dumbass silver sharks are more picefull then u think they well not even eat neon tetras

[abahellojello]

is your water hard or soft

need help

[Dzekute]

I don't know. I didn't do any tests.

[Ingiequeen]

Nicely planted tank, but how big is it and how many fish are in there? In the vid it looks slightly over crowded

[BIGPOND400]

i had some guppies and they all died 2 months but i and that 1 is still haveing babies 2 day

[gamalto303]

nice i love it u shold see mine it sucks

[AquariumLover4]

really nice tank, love the fish!!

[tico33135]

your missing one livebearer platies

[drmmrjn]

what kind of plant is that in the back? not the big leaf plant.

[Dzekute]

It is Egeria densa.

[lovejenine]

I'm sure you got lots of babies, they tend to have babies regularly.

[supramax79]

question. how often do they breed and how long do they take to become adults,or at least to star breeding? I'm want to star a tank,and use them as feeders for my cichlid tank.

[Dzekute]

About 3-4 month old.

[puccasucks]

is i okay that i used stones not sand/soil

[piccuh]

it looks pretty crowded in there! but it does look clean, so who am i to nit-pick. i love red wag swordtails ^^ nice job on the tank, it's very colourfull and entertaining to watch.

[mydogbarkstoomuch]

platy can interbreed with swordtail and guppies can interbreed with

endlerslivebearers. but the endler + guppy fry cant have fry. have fun

[mario4warlama]

This is my ideal tank. I love livebearers they are easy to take care of easy to breed and look beautiful.

[msh464]

This tank is perfect... its not over crowded at all...  trust me.. they love planted tanks... and large groupsof other platies...

[ochoacool]

over crowded tank

[AquariaTips]

No, it isn't.

[PatDSM]

Are those fish pregnant? Wow! That is a great idea. I think I'll get another tank for the nursery. Beautiful fishies!

[itscutieme05]

Beautiful fish and tank. You will be blessed with lots of babies. I love those red swords, so pretty.

[jeni1994]

lots of babies! :D

[tcfuturevet]

did they ever breed with other fish?? I could be just a chance that they all became males. i hav seen variatus in stores with both males and females. I am curious cause i want to know if i should buy both platy and swordtail.

[Dzekute]

I think, they cant breed.

[tcfuturevet]

have you ever had hybrids??

[Dzekute]

Yes, 3 or 4 males.

[Dzekute]

Yes, they are hybrids. But hybrids are only males, I haven't seen females. I cant talk about fertile, because I dont know.

[cutieutie13]

you will soon have way too many fish for that size tank. i would invest in a larger tank, 2 or 3 times that size, and possibly use that as a tank for the fry.

[KevinKurian123]

how long does it take you to put the fry back into the main tank

[Dzekute]

About month.

[tomninnes1]

I also have a tank like this with

Platys

mollys

swordtails

guppies

and a small shoal of cardinals

And my tank is constantly breeding XD

Ive had 4 lots of fry since i started up the tank about 2 months ago

[batasushi]

your tank is wonderful! thank you for sharing this video!

[riverdancer123455]

where did you get all the nice plants?

[itscutieme05]

I love the Red Brick swordtails, and you have many nice prego ones.

[jonerez]

I see :P

How many lots of fry have you had since you started the tank?

[Dzekute]

~20, but they were small only about 1 cm. :)

[jonerez]

40 litres?

You have alot of livebearers...

Recepie for disaster!

[Dzekute]

I know, there are a lot of fish, but they are livebearer and breeding. I often present them.

[xDaretobeDifferentx]

Wow,great tank! Check the video's of mine on my channel,tell me what you think!

[fishygal94]

yeah that's why.

[aywon4]

basically dis is bcoz ur platies and swordtails might mate and end up giving birth to hybrid fry

[fishygal94]

i thought u shouldn't house platies and swordtails together

[Dzekute]

Could you tell me why?

[RASMISS]

some dont want them to interbreed as swordtails-platys-mollies will interbreed but I myself couldnt care less . We have a pond with them but its impossible to enjoy them like an indoor tank as you see them only from above and its 3 feet of water

[poopwillrule]

cool

[wwaayynne57]

what size tank

[Dzekute]

40 litres

[aaahchuu]

Very pretty!
