Yes, I know this is an odd assortment of fish. It was an experiment to see if this random group could "hang" together. So far so good. This tank is unusual not only for the variety of species but the size variences which range from 1/2 inch to 9+ inches.

  • Love your tank! nice to see someone else break the rules successfully, half of the advice about not mixing fish, must be written by non fish keepers! Im off out to buy some angels and ciclids for my tropical tank, as youve just proved, if you start them all off together, they can get on just fine! Thanks for sharing your beautiful fish and tank!!

  • @IvonHumpAlot

    Whoa, I should have responded earlier to you. Please keep in mind that I bought very peaceful cichlids, not Jack Dempseys or Red Terrors. Hope you did't make tat same mistake.

see all

  • what size tank do u have all those fish in bro? beautiful tank and they all seem to love you with that camera in your hand as well as get along great too!

  • iunno why i said ottos lol but they are algae eater, they kinda look like ottos that why.

  • Nice tank!!! i want to add other fish in my tank as well. So far i have 1 pleco, 2 ottos, 7 ghost shrimps , 3 mystery snail, 7 gold fish. BTW 2 of my gold fish are like 6 inches long, pleco is like 7 inches, 1 otto is like 5 inches. I wanna get angel fish, and mollies; is it posible? and should i add pinch of salt or no and will it affect my goldfish?

  • @snotbog1 Almost! Fish shop had neither so got a pair of golden gouramis, so far theyve wiped out shoal of 7 harlequins, 1 hatchet and a red tailed shark! Think il leave the cichlids alone. Iv got pair of dwarf blue, and pair of honey red dwarf gouramis whom the larger golds are letting clean them.Also have a guppy only tank, as the golds discovered they could suck the guppy fry outa the breeding tank, totally facinating to watch. The few tetras that are left are quick enough to get away!Thanks.

  • @snotbog1 half beaks look well cool! do you know of any eels or fish that look like eals that wont eat my fish?

  • @lypluradon
