I really appreciate how you explained the challenges of keeping certain fish, like mollies or piranhas, especially for beginners. It's so important to have this knowledge upfront-thank you!
Flowerhorns, Arowanas [especially the Gold and Red Asians] and fancy goldfish [usually Orandas, Ryukins and Ranchus] are quite popular here. They're usually associated with Feng Shui, hence why they're so popular with the older Chinese population. Most of these are actually remarkably hardy. People here can neglect the tank for a year and they're still kicking
I like unusual fish types, but that Flowerhorn fish creeps me out. This is a great list and so good that you make it clear and quick. Great video and info here 👍👍
I had no idea some of these fish could be so hard to care for. Thanks for sharing your tips! I’ll definitely think twice before adding any of these to my tank!
Thanks for sharing this list of aquarium fish to avoid! Your insights are really helpful for anyone setting up a tank and wanting to avoid potential challenges. It's great to learn from your experiences to make better choices. Keep up the awesome content!
Mollies are beyond easy to care for. First you can use aquarium salt (which keeps lots of infections/parasites in check) with them and a simple hang on back filter (without a pre-filter) will mulch any fry, keeping them in check for you.
Thanks for sharing these detailed insights on different fish species and their specific care needs! It’s great to know which fish may be challenging, especially for those of us with smaller tanks.
I own 10 Piranhas, And I agree with you.. for most of part they're basically "Boring" "Calm swimming" fish that rarely moves from the corner.. But, my favorite parts is to see when they're tearing half chicken for their foods.. I would say Piranhas are basically more like a "Attraction Pet" rather than "Decorative Pet" that usually Aquarium sought
This video was super informative! I learned a lot about fish care and compatibility. Your insights on species like the Gulper Catfish were eye-opening. Thanks for sharing!
Is an insightful video that highlights some of the most challenging and problematic fish to maintain in a home aquarium. It’s a must-watch for any aquarist looking to avoid common pitfalls and ensure a harmonious tank environment. 🐠💡
3:56 I have a golden Chinese algae eater in one of my turtle tanks, and there is not a speck of algae in that tank, including on my turtle's shell. He has his own cave and eats algae wafers and leftover turtle food.
They shouldn’t be a problem with turtles as long as the turtles don’t try to eat them. It’s with fish that you’ll run into issues as they are temperamental and will suck slime coats off fish. Some Large Plecos will suck slime coats off too
Interesting video! Great insights on which fish to avoid in aquariums and why. Definitely helpful for anyone planning a tank setup. Thanks for sharing your experience
Great video. I've been keeping fish since I was 13 years old. 1962. Long overdue. Mollies and swordtails are notoriously delicate and die easy. Sometimes dead before you get them home. Such fish cause people to become disgusted and give up the hobby entirely.
Even the least popular aquarium fish can have unique qualities that make them special. For example, some may be quirky or have interesting behaviors that can add character to your tank. Every fish contributes to the diversity of the aquatic world!
I wish I’d known about the Molly problem. My male got too aggressive to deal with Guppies can also be a pain. Mine overbred way too much and I was feeding them to other fish just to thin them out.
I have hatchet fish and yes I have had 2 of em kamikaze on the floor For them they aren’t hard per se to keep just get em a high quality flakefood They are relatively peaceful
Common plecos are a terrible idea for most fish keepers, they’re really more of a pond fish and they can be even messier than goldfish. Their only saving grace is also what makes them an invasive species and a terrible tank mate: their hardiness. They can deal with the absolutely awful water quality and just about any water parameters capable of supporting life, so if you plop one in a small tank (being anything smaller than at least a 75) it’ll do fine but produce so much waste that it kills the other residents.
They are the second largest livebearer and they breed as much as guppies. I’d rather have guppies or endlers. Unless it’s saltwater than mollies are cool for frag tank algae control
@@AquariumStoreDepot that's crazy but yeah that does make sense because like you said the guppies are small but because the molly are big you need at least a 75
@@AquariumStoreDepotmy friend keeps one with guppies and mollies and its nice because it doesn’t breed with them so he doesn’t have to deal with babies

Swordtails are absolutely gorgeous, you should give them a try!

Thanks - I hope it helps!
Wow, very informative explanation! Thank you for sharing your knowledge, this really helps me to avoid mistakes in choosing fish for the aquarium!
Glad you enjoyed it!
These are difficult fish to keep due to their size, aggression, or specialized care needs, making them unsuitable for most home aquariums.
I think this is a very interesting video. Thank you so much for sharing a informative and valuable video for us.
This is great video. I personaly liked your video topics. Thanks for share this video

I like convict cichlids in species only tanks
Amazing video

I’ve got two very large tanks 190 lt my main and smaller 100 lt

Good video
Thank you 😊
My brother and I used to breed fish, but I only keep guppies now
I already bought a flowerhorn but I think you should take them off
It's a good fish

gulpher catfish is underrated in experienced fish keeping 👇
