    I just did my water change and it's not time to change the filter yet. On a 65 gallon freshwater tank with 7 different types of plants and some nicely stocked fish and a thick wood, and there has been no bad bacheria, or bad levels in the water. It's just completely green after a few days. I even left the light off. Even though it's a fluval aquarium pro and has control over it automatically for optimized light.

    In Vietnam here, this kind of fish just spawn from every pond, lake, river and even ricefield. It can endure the harshest environment that nature or human can give. When I was a kid, I catched a few of them in my autie's pond in the countryside. The best transportation for them was a plastic box filled with water and I seated on a bus for like 2 hours until I reached home to put them in my fish tank. Despite the name "paradise fish", those fish gave my other fish living hell. They literally murdered nearly half of my fish tank in just one night due to their agressive nature and probably from their old habitat of fighting for life. I had no choice but to free them in a nearest lake and think maybe their were fine, their tolerance are high as hell. Now I understand why people name those fish as "paradise fish". It's either everywhere is their paradise or they just make other fish go to heaven.

    Bristlenose plecos only eat Cyanobacteria which is the green algae. They don't eat all the 10 other types of algae like black beard algae, brown algae, red algae or diatom algae etc. One of the best algae eater is for example the "Chinese algae eater" fish. Definitely not the bristlenose. This video is misconseption. In fact bristlenoses are one the worst algae eaters because most L numbered catfish eat more algae than the bb

    I love this fish..i have a 180L tank. I would love 10 oto's, 12 pearl danio's and 1 (female?) paradise fish...but also..and here it comes: 200 Bloody mary shrimp! How would this go you think? Bye bye all shrimp in one week? Or would he just eat now and then a shrimp and leaves them for the rest alone? I mean 200 shrimp will make allot of baby's every month, enough to keep the shrimp population high enough?

    Best fish I have ever had! Got mine in a 4ft lowboy heavily planted tank as the centrepiece predatory fish with guppy/endlers, peppered corydoras, amano and neocaridina shrimp. It's a brown bodied, red tailed fish and I have noticed that only blue tailed guppy/endlers are left alone. However, any with red tails don't survive for very long and only the fastest blue tailed ones survive it's predatory nature. I got it specifically to keep the guppy/endlers population in control and it's doing a great job so far. Got many reddish brown vegetation in their too so it just melts into them like camouflage. Awesome fish!

    These fish change colors like actual chameleons in a pond. My fish go from blue orange to white yellow . they can also change their whole body color to blend in with yellow and green plants. If you watch them hunt, they actually climb out of the water to catch insects and snails. They are also intelligent fish and definitely recognize me, greetings me by flashing the white they can make (my pond is made from an old tractor tyre, black in color and the fish contrast themselves when they want me to see them). Despite the vivid colors they have amazing ability to camouflage themselves using their chameleon like abilities. My pond is about 1200 liters community cold water, average temp about 15-18 celcius, soft water, continuous slow flow (municipal leak spring ).
