    "small" fish in a big tank will always be my favorite!

    Large shoal of Columbian Tetras would look stunning. They are large enough and very quick to not get eaten by the larger fish😊

    I swear through all the changes to the 2000G tank that pleco has always been chugging along somewhere in there lol. Love em.

    Absolutely gorgeous!! The Altums look fantastic in this setup. For the surface you could go with Giant Silver Hatchetfish (Thoracocharax securis), for the middle zone Diamond tetra (Moenkhausia pittieri) and for the bottom Brochis Splendens (aka Corydoras splendens)

    Joey, get a large school of hatchet fish for the top dwellers. Corydora, but stick with all the same species of Corydora you pick, dont mix them though. Large species of Tetra like - black widow, congo, bleeding heart and silver tipped tetra all tetra in large schools would be great. And you cant forget - Some rummy nose tetra in that tank would be awesome.

    Gold Laser Coreys would be insane for bottom feeders. They school and are eye catching. And easily breed.

    That aquarium looks so great natural,with all the stump like tree roots etc.and oh course the moss make it look like it’s been there for years .if I was younger and couldn’t do steps a lot we would put a huge tank in our basement . years ago, someone had a two or 3000 gallon rip Chism tank. I believe it was plexiglass maybe on the inside, but most of it was metal. He offered it to us, but we had no way to get something that large down basement would’ve been impossible.

  • @kountatalk
    @kountatalk 13 годин тому +1

    The 16ft tank would be awesome as a tropical community setup? Heaps of Cory Cats, a large group of ruby nose tetras swimming back and forth along the long length would look so good. Some wood, Amazon swords etc. Not overly clustered because you want to see the Corys.
    Or a planted rainbow fish tank?
    Something like that would be would be great 👍

  • @NogrimStoneson
    @NogrimStoneson 11 годин тому +1

    i was psyched for the giant piranha tank, but that looks really really good. every one looks pretty happy in it. your going to have to spoil the dream fish for an honest opinion a bunch of little guys mixed in would be wicked.
    what made that old rainbow tank awesome was you had all the movement, and you had all of the different characters. i still remember you dumping all of the clowns out of that stick lol

  • @feebleknievil2713
    @feebleknievil2713 13 годин тому +1

    From my pov, you need more orange colour in there. You mentioned about pearl gourami, it'd look really good when they mature with the orange belly and shouling. 😊 Love your work!

  • @michaelnorthfield1086
    @michaelnorthfield1086 Годину тому

    The first thing I noticed, is that the fish are not as skittish in the 2000g. The fish are so much more comfortable than in the 16ft. Well done

  • @comedianmattrossey
    @comedianmattrossey 3 години тому

    Definitely get a bunch of Acara's. Having more fish filling in the top of the water column would really put so much more movement and colour in the tank. Also, tetra's, a nice small touch, but will mostly end up as food I think. And as said already, they've been done to death.

  • @apurvshubham5875
    @apurvshubham5875 5 годин тому

    You can also add the albino heckelii into the 2k gallon. They will be a great addition to the tank. Or maybe some giant-sized clown loaches. But in the end the choices are all yours.

  • @emileebacon9422
    @emileebacon9422 13 годин тому +1

    I say get the fish you haven't kept before. Discus would also look amazing in the 2000 for more and different color. I selfishly would love for you to get a lungfish, I find them fascinating to watch because they aren't your typical fish.
