- 10 Unusual Nano Fish & Shrimp Combinations (30+ SPECIES) That Will Make A Beautiful & Peaceful Tank. Here is a list of over 30 fish and invertebrates which can all live to gether interchangeably and mostly - in peace. (please watch my panda loach care videos before considering them- they are a rare and beautiful nano fish, that requires some extra care :)
I hope this is useful to both long time, experienced fish keepers and beginners alike! If you want more information about each species, how to care for and even breed them- please just do a search through my existing videos and most these fish are covered (as well as many plants and shrimp species too!) I hope this spices up yiur imagination and is useful for hobbyists of all experience levels.
however I have also put together some of my favorite trios of species for your nano style planted tank, pond or aquascape, in a top 10 list. From Micro fish that are tiny and sparkly like Celestial pearl Danios & Emerald dwarf Rasbora, to the colorful and hardy common guppies and endlers livebearers - all the way to the slightly more demanding and rare panda loaches, multistriped dwarf loaches and unusual species of caridina and neocaridina shrimp!
This is a dynamic list that should provide something for every one. A nice usage of all the water column, from bottom feeders to top dwellers, and a wide and interesting array of behavior and movement and reproductive habbits that make for an entertaining combination of species.

Fish from all over the world in aquariums are awesome!!! Love the plants too.
Wow your tanks are so beautiful, algae included.
Thank you. I try and keep a few wirh algae to show its not necessarily a hideous mess hehe
I love how full of life and activity all your tanks are!
@Fishtory what is that pretty pink leaf plant at 12:20? What are its requirements? Does it need C02? Thanks for your videos! 😊
That is a mini/dwarf tiger lotus 🪷 that has high light and very low nitrates :)
Thanks so much.. It is so pretty need to put it on my list😺@@Fishtory thanks
Your short nose shrimp look like the Taiwanese short/long nose shrimp. I can't find them anywhere here in the UK! Great video, thank you 😊
Thank you
my angels would snack on most of those nano fish
Very true
This was a great video. If I can get over my single species tank obsession I will try some of your suggestions.
I need to get some single species tanks going again also haha. But my wife is the limiting factor on me becoming a hoarder hah
Gorgeous tank!
Thank you
Just looking at all your plants stuffing your tanks, I’m wondering HOW can you keep the stem plants rooted? I have a 10 gal that has kuhli loaches that keep swimming too fast at the roots and the stem plants keep uprooting. The flow is moderate and because they keep getting uprooted they don’t seem to be growing roots anymore.
I have a good video with tips and tricks to aquascaping and keeping plants down, but im not positive of the title "planting in new substrate" or so "how to plant tissue cultures" may be the titles... but anyhow there are a few ways.
1. Lead strips called plant weights (yes they're safe, the lead is mixed with aluminum I believe).
2. Float plants at the top and let them grow white runner roots all over, over 5 to 20 days, then plant those once you have some roots to work with, and they'll just end up holding on better.
3. Sand cap everything with an inch or two of sand and simply insert stems ...sand holds it.
4. Set a small rock on the bent base of a plant so even if the plant has to grow in an "L" shape, it will stick, and then you move the rock about a month later.
5. Plant everything before filling the tank...simply plant in soaked substrate which will hold onto the stems...but you want to keep up humidity...Google "Dry Start Method for more info on this."
Good luck!
Sincerely, Alex.
So interesting, I took notes!!!
Glad to hear it!
I love your channel. I mostly keep goldfish, but I have a 10 gallon cherry shrimp tank and a 36 gallon bowfront that's all nano
Gotta get them all
I have those striped loaches! (Stone Loaches). I've never seen them on a video before.
Meee too
My dream tank is a 125 gallon with large schools of about 40 of dwarf rasboras, dwarf corys, green neon tetras, and dwarf pencil fish
If you ever accomplish this id love to see it! My goal is to save up for a 90P rimless style low iron tank and do the same thing... mostly iwagumi, with a broken arch bridge in the center and crypts/carpet with some buce here and there but all schools of micro fish
So it’s been three years since this comment; do you still feel the same way about what you want in a dream tank?
@@nathanielreichert4638 Yes! When it comes to both terrariums and aquariums, I definitely like having a big enclosure with small inhabitants.
Love your videos great work super talented! You are truly inspiring and legendary.
That's very kind of you to say. I really appreciate you watching my videos. Thank you
@@Fishtory No problem thanks for sharing so much great info.
I have skittles shrimp and a 10 gallon filtered tank with sponge I’m not running the heater my temperature runs between 64 and 66 on average in the winter will they still be able to have babies at that temperature and the babies be helpful? If anybody knows the answer to this could you please answer my question for me would be a bigHelp thank you .🌸
They will...but far far less. Like 3 to 6 eggs and they grow very slow... and then take a while to "recharge" their protein and egg supply in their saddles.
If you get Habrosa I recommend getting 10.
They are so cool, and fun to watch. They pair well with otocinclus and wind up playing around together.
Totally...reed tetras also evolved to school with them... i have a group of 6 and then 12 reed tetras, and even though theyre not flashy...they move so beautifully
Thanks!
Another great and informative video.
You totally got me with the recent video pushing Aquatic Arts. I used your 15% coupon and purchased a school of kubotai and CPD. Am not disappointed.
Question: I have a 29 gallon with 12 Ember Tetras, 10 Pygmy Cories and 3 Amano Shrimp. I'm looking for a small fish to fill in the top portion and I saw your earlier response suggesting Coral Pencil Fish or Clown Killies. I don't want a lid on this tank so I'm wondering if either of these would work without fearing the dreaded "suicide leap" (Please say clown killies).
So i must say, I do not use lids. Yes I have lost 1 or 2 of each in a year, but even a half inch or inch of glass prevents most leaps. They only seen to leap when a kid comes over and bangs on the glass, or something loud falls over, it's not a normal behavior. But I'd be lying it i said they didnt sometimes jump. I like clown killies a lot, they usually dont move fast anywhere, theyre just a beautiful fish.
Right on. I used aquatic arts previous to any endorsement of course.
Anyone, breeder, store or brand I support and or endorse has not paid me money for or any deals upfront for advertising their stuff. It's always people and things that I personally prefer as well as use, and also in almost every case, i will not endorse a website unless they can cut my viewers a deal. (with the exceptions of ucas Bretz and Greg Sage - whom both are people who have spent decades breeding lines of livebearers, plecos or oddball fish that I keep and which I want folks to know who the credit of countless hours of painstaking care and attention to detail, is owed to).
But yes aquatic arts gives a ton back to local schools, homeless and abused womens shelters, pet adoption, alternating charities and also (maybe most impressively) as they grow they are buying more and more cichlids, corydoras, and livebearers from local breeders in the midwest. Which is becoming exceedingly rare- and i think it is what makes this hobby a true community and sustainable ecosystem. Instead of pumping money overseas to sweatshop fish farms essentially.
Okay rant over haha... but it's why im fine paying overnight shipping - to keep fish safe and this company growing. When i first featured them, they had 3 employees- now they've worked all the way up to 12 or 13 more- all fish lovers with education and or experience in the hobby
What is the very first tetra that you mention called? I want to get some of those they look nice all schooled up....
Reed tetras... very cheap fish, and really nice blueish silver color... they also school with ember tetras, cory habrosus, and kitty tetras, beautifully!
My weirdest combination of fish and shrimp must be the colony of neocaridina shrimp living happily with my 4 pea puffers in a 12 gallon tank! Thanks for the great video!
It soon fell apart when i moved the danios....then puffers started eyeing shrimp...it was a "perfect balance"
great video and info. what's the name of that red plant in the very right front of the tank.
Either ludwigia super red or hygrophila polysperma sunset pink/red
Thanks for tuning in
first thing i noticed that stunning plant
Green hair algae pairs well with neon tetras. RGB color scheme.
True!
I have a 20g long with an overbreeding population of orange dwarf crayfish. (Yes, the crays do trim the monte carlo carpet and moss but leave the rest of the plants mostly alone). I decided to add 9 rose danios to the tank and now, I have much less newborn cray populations and they do really well with the crays, too fast to get injured by a surly cray, lol.
Yeah haha
Panda garra are cool - use some round stones and make current flow fast across these and you will see some natural behaviour of the garra. I have these in 350 litres and build a fast flow area near the surface directly under the light and they are more visible and more out in the open.
The loaches might like that as well...
I have a 40 breeder downstairs that has a 250 and 500 powerhead haha running over rocks and then a cross turbulence flow towards the glass (on half the time)... i love watching them play in it. You are totally correct
I have the short nosed algae eating shrimp from Aquatic Arts. They are fascinating, out and about all the time, constantly grazing on any and all algae, even BBA, amazing little shrimp.
What I love about your tanks is you have some common fish that beginners can easily find and thrive with, and then you have some hard to find nano fish that are interesting enough to keep even a jaded fish keepers attention.
AND you break all the rules with the combinations and stocking levels you successfully keep. It's always interesting and educational to see what you are up to in your tanks, Alex.
👍💕👍
Thanks. I suppose after 20 years of playing with combos or not knowing the "rules", I've come up with a fish keeping style that works for me. Now I've also lost a lot of fish and shrimp over the years to figure this out, but i try to keep it a little fun .
I know i haven't been doing a ton of history centered videos this month, however, I get asked this stocking idea question constantly and figured id list some easy to find ones and some unique nano stuff that you'll never find at a big box fish store.
Amazing setup your planted tank
Thank you kindly. I love plants and have a video dedicated to all the species in the tank, called : "35 pink and red aquatic plants", i love the aesthetic, but fish and shrimp habitat and behavioral structure always comes first in my tanks...then once each species has their niche or requirements met, i fiddle with the aesthetics
Nice fish tank u got there, i like the cpd tank n the set up u made, gimme some tips about keeping cpd, i often fail on cpd
I actually have videos on their amazing story of discovery and their care. Plus i have some random updates and combos of my tanks... then there are also several dedicated spawning/ breeding and raising cpds for profit
@@Fishtory , oh thank you very much, i havent check all ur video yet, i will check it out, i really appricate,
Love the video. I have a 60G Breeder nano tank. 3 of the fish are not nano, but the rest are. Here's my listing....
Non-nano fish:
8 Bolivian Rams
4 True Siamese Algae Eaters
6 Julii Cory Cats
Nano Fish
20 Chili Rasboras
20 Rummy Nose Rasboras
20 Neon Tetras
15 Celestial Pearl Danios
20 Red Neon Blue Eyed Rainbowfish
8 Otto Cats
Then a number of wild cherry shrimp, red cherry shrimp, Black Rose Neocaridina Shrimp, and Black Chocolate Neocaridina Shrimp.
24 Amano Shrimp
Sounds ammmmmazing!
Nice selection
Thank yuh. Also, thanks for tuning in
What I love about you bruh is u do you, I'm the same way keep in tanking
Thanks man.... i try to approach it holistically and naturally... lots of diversity and density...but tons of plants also.
Good combo suggestions Alex, thanks.
Was hoping to see one with Peacock Gudgeon in it. I have mine in a big community set up now but I kept them with Guppies previously. Kinda felt because the guppies are uber energetic they kinda stole the show and the Gudgeon deserved to be centrepiece with fish that would compliment them rather than detract in terms of stealing the attention but never nailed the right mix.
Gudgeons and threadfins/praecox neon dwarf rainbow fish or even psuedomugils along with a nice ember tetra or purple tetra- look great..together! I had a tank (20 tall) with that combo about 2 years ago. However i had some shrimp in there as well- however one day the gudgeons spawned and also ate all 25 or 30 shrimp in 2 days lol
Love your tanks! I am working on a 20 gal planted tank (new to the hobby)...I currently have 6 cherry barbs and 2 nerite snails...what other species would pair well in your opinion?
I think a couple apistograma could be fun, or German blue rams, as well as 7 or so rummy nose tetras or ember tetras for color
@@Fishtory Thanks for the reply! Are apistograma difficult to keep? Also, I have a 40 gal patio pond I am having trouble deciding on what to stock. I had the cherry barbs out there, but I moved them to the 20 gal cuz I couldnt see them other than feeding time. I am looking for something larger that I can actually see swimming in there. I love koi and shubunkins, but I know I dont have the space for them so I need other ideas. Thanx again!
haha the malawa shrimps breed in any conditions, i was having too many of them at one point and didnt know what to do. but now i use them to cycle the newly set up tanks.
just snails are not enough to feed the puffers, my puffers each one of them can eat 100 snails in 3 days. you have to feed them worms then.
Good call
Hi! I've recently subscribed to your channel and am very new at freshwater aquarium keeping. As someone who is not familiar with all the species and common names, I was thinking that the video would be easier for me to "get" if you could overlay your video with the names and maybe even still pics of the fish types. Just a suggestion.
It's definitely something I also want to do. Usually I'll list it in the description if it's a list of stuff, but honestly I focus on creating 4 or 5 videos a week between lives, research and q&a's but so I have only used the phone for video editing... but I'll try and figure out a way for that to be done on an app of some sort hehe. Or maybe I can do a card on UA-cam with a link to the plant profile/ Fish info?
Thanks for tuning in though!
@@Fishtory You are very busy, and I understand. A card would be good. There are also some fairly inexpensive vid editing software that you can do a trial for free and see if they work for you if you have a desktop or laptop. I swear I'm not a software sale person! lol
20:04 What are the black and white cichlid-looking fish? I kept waiting for you to tell us. I’m hanging here in suspense!
is that a regular metal shelf like you could get at a box store? what size will it support, directly on the rack?
Yes...i usually put down a blanket or chipboard just so the pressure isnt so harsh on the frame bracing on my tanks.
It's rated to hold 400 a shelf and its at 240 to 284 depending on the shelf. So far its been great and I've had it loaded up around 20 months now
Its a home depot brand... wire utility modular rack shelving (59.99 for what you saw and another shelf that i didnt trust adding on top another level hehe. It's perfect for a 20 long or 2 10s side by side... or 4 of my 5 gallon tanks lengthwise
Alex - what would you put in w/ cherry barbs? I find myself attracted to red/bronze fish, but I like your idea of contrasting colors.
Hmmm what size tank, and how many cherry barbs do you have already? (They're fairly aggressive... not mean necessarily, but they'll hold their own and swim fast.)
I'd lean towards something like an Odessa barb, Green tiger barbs or albino tiger barbs (6 to 8 of any of those)... perhaps a dojo loach or zebra loach. Then maybe corydoras (orange Venezuelan cory cats are orange and metallic blue or black....kinda cool looking.)
Also any zebra, kythit or pearl danios (I like the long fin zebra or leopard danios). And you could do 6 to 10 of those probably.
Kuhli loaches work well at the bottom also...and all these listed species live with the cherry barbs in the wild
@@Fishtory That's good to know! No fish yet, just brainstorming setup ideas before starting a fish room.
Awesome video and great suggestions! Any ideas for a final fish species that would go happily in my 40L (10gallon)? medium planted with dragon rock, lots of hiding spaces som spots of denser plants, red-line rasboras and cherry shimp! It's looking great and everyone is happy - just no one is using to top half of the water column. xx Thanks
Either 5 (?) pencil fish or 5 (?) hatchetfish. But make sure to have a lid as both species will most likely jump
I would say coral pencil fish are a great choice, clown killies are awesome if you're worried about shrimp, since they stay up top and have very small mouths. More ideas could be tinwini danio aka goldring danios, or choprae danios aka glow light danios. Or as said by JustLem, some marbled hatchet fish could look cool- however they stay up top completely.
Lots of potential there, especially with color! Embers with orange, reed tetras or green neon schools... if you have lots of cover and hides hides for the shrimp then rummynose tetras are beautiful (school together more tightly than almost any other aquarium fish
Lastly an orange rummynose rasbora group would be an incredible addition
I have 2 bumblebee gobies in my 10g shrimp tank. I'm not breeding the shrimp for profit and the gobies are way too small to eat the adult shrimp.
Your tanks are awesome. May I know your shrimp tank’s water PH, GH, TDS data? Thank you
It varries but usually my tds is 150 or so, and my ph is 6.5 to 7...temp 74 to 78 f. And gh 3 to 10 and kh 2 to 5 ( i go more by tds and then what food they eat...you can have almost no kh in the water, if you have food with calcium and vitamin enriched formulas for the shrimp.
I have links to the products i feed with (hikari crustacean) and hikari algae wafer being standard.
Cheers!
@@Fishtory Could you put the names of fish in the description? I was trying to look for that one rasbora that was almost extinct, but I can't figure out the spelling.
@@peepslostsheep somphong / somphongsi rasbora
@@Fishtory Thank you!
Planted aquarium newbie question . Do you think dwarf cichlids and amanos will be a good combo. Got an heavily planted 6 gallon aquatop with amanos . Thinking of changing it up a bit
Well personally, I think 6 gallons is a bit too small for even dwarf cichlids other than maybe a pair of apistos or checkerboard cichlids (something under 2.5 inches max)... because they need the whole tank to be their territory for spawning instinct.... you could try it, and i think amano shrimp are one of the stronger/aggressive shrimp that can hold their own often times... however my kribs ate all my amanos the first day- so id say it would be with extreme caution...and make sure they are some of the very small cichlids with that tank...provide them at least 2 spots to hide (sticks to burrow under in a sandy substrate, a stack of rocks with an overhang, a ceramic pleco/apisto hide...or coconut shell cave.... 3 is ideal because they like to pick a nest and then be able to have back up nests just in case they feel stressed. Perhaps german blue rams would work also....but if you have shrimp with them, id try one first and make sure there's places for the shrimp to hide in plants and or on a stick or something up high near water level.
Cichlids are all unique pairs and a lot of fun, so it's not unheard of, and my dwarf kribs have paired off and then totally ignored even neocaridina cherry shrimp twice in the past.
Last advice, even though this tank is crowded...would he to get 5 or 6 chili rasboras,lime green rasboras or exclamation point rasboras (the tiniest body style their is in the hobby)....and that may allow the cichlids to be more distracted by the faster moving fish than the shrimp.
Good luck, my friend!
And thank you for watching.
-Alex
Also, welcome to the channel and community! Never be scared to ask a question, my friend!
Beautiful...
Thank you, brother! I appreciate you watching
What type of cichlids are in the last tank
Earned it!
Thanks!
I’m curious about the common causes of Cordydora death. I love this fish but they die quite often or completely disappear from the tank. They die when the water parameters are perfect and what seems like suddenly. I just transformed my tank to the Father Fish method 3 days ago and did have a Cory die today. I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong???
Any time you change your tank around there's a chance you kicked up mulm or even just stressed out some fish. I'd stick with the changes, make sure you have lots of plants and do decent size water changes with corycats- as they really love water changes and often spawn if you do a change of 40% or more
2 questions if I may: What was the 1st tetra that you talked about that schools with Corydoras Pygmaeus? Also, what size tank is this one that you're showing? Thank you!! This is a stunningly gorgeous tank :)
Why thank you Rori! The first tank I show off in the video is an old school 40 gallon (not 37.5 haha...for nerds out there) bowfront that's extra tall. 28 inches tall, and fairly narrow...which took some planning to decide how to utilize
So the first combo was Kitty Tetra (serpea tetra or orange eye/red eye lemon tetras are also great fish with similar size and color.) Then the schooling tetra is called a reed tetra
@@Fishtory Reed Tetra! That's what I didn't get, thanks!!
@@Fishtory Well, it's gorgeous! Wish I had room for something that large, I'd do a community tank like that. Fun and interesting video, and new sub, thank you!
what are the beautiful black fish with orange fins?
Celestial pearl danios :)
@@Fishtory No, I think they are some sort of guppies. I know what the CPDs look like. Maybe red tail platinum guppies?
@@pungr ohhh. Yes their called koi dumbo ear tuxedos
@@Fishtory well they looked absolutely stunning in that tank. To me, they were beautiful and I'm going to get some!
What would be your number one fish to keep with some neo cardinia?
Phoenix rasboras, chili rasboras, blue or green axelrodi rasboras, clown killie fish, otocinctlus, robocop (orange otocinctlus) or perhaps a small variety of male endlers or like the blonde koi guppy or perhaps baby or juvenile plecos if you have another larger tank for a year or two later
I have them with ottocinclus affinis. The shrimp breed like crazy. Have not seen a oto do anything to them. Even the small ones.
What is that small scarlet badis looking fish in the tank with the white clouds?
You nailed it
@@Fishtory nice
I am doing research to start my first tank and I really wanted to just do one but I feel like I am going to end up with too many 😂
Lol... "no comment"
This is the second video I’ve seen so far on this great tank. Is there anyway to get a proper spelling for the salmfungsi rasbora. I can’t quite get google to crack the code and correct it for me 😂

Thanks Viola, I'll try and keep up with everyone's questions as long as I can...but it's getting tougher as the channel grows ..which is great hehe. I hope you're doing well- it's been a little while since i said hello. So- HELLO! have an incredible weekend
Could Betas and Amano shrimp be kept together?
I have a 5 gallon Aquael Nano cube with a big red Betta Splendens veiltail and 7 Amano shrimp (2 female and 5 male) with no problem at all. In fact the female Amano's are both berried all the time.
Yes, they can- and no, they cannot.... it's honestly all about keeping your betta entertained and fed well as a starting point. However if you get a really nippy and aggressive betta, then I've also seen them attack all the shrimp on day one...
So id try one or two and see how it goes!
Try guapore or elegans cory. They would look nice in there
Excellent suggestions, thank you!

So ridiculous that UA-cam doesn’t allow the “dwarf” and demonetizes videos because of it
We don’t use that deprecatory word here. How dare a fish channel use the common name for a diminutive species of any genus. 😂
yes it’s awful and it needlessly punishes any flora or fauna channel.
Does anyone know what he is saying at 2:36? He doesn't give the common name and that is what pet stores and many online sellers use. It's frustrating, I've tried to search what I Think he's saying, but ... nope.
Trigonastigma rasbora?
@@Fishtory I don't think so, it sounds like som-fonzi (like Happy Days Fonzi) ?? It's at 2:36. It's the first fish of your second recommendation. If you know the common name, I would like to find that fish.
@@kyfarm somphongsi rasbora! It has no common name sadly. Yeah they're an epic little survivor of a species.
@@Fishtory Yes! Thank you. Now the hunt can begin. :-)
@@kyfarm most excellent!
Its Malaya not Malawa shrimp if im not mistaken. i meant its from/origin from Malaysia/Malaya right ?
No, these are Malawa, however there are people who call a babaulti species from Malaysia , Malaya shrimp also
what are those white and black striped chiclid looking small fish at 20:10 ??
Honduran Red Points.... convict cichlids :)
@@Fishtory I thought they were some awesome dwarf variety, but damn, little baby devils 😂😂😂
You do not HAVE to feed pea puffers snails. Their teeth will never be a problem. They dont evem crack the shell of a snail.
True, theyll eat blood worms and even some flake...but i think they color up and behave far more dynamically when they get live worms and or snails. However, my puffers actually do crack some shells sometimes...ive got a video in slow mo
@@Fishtory I do feed my pea puffer snails, if i have them. And mine will only eat tubifex or black worms besides snails. All other food, live or not, he will ignore it.
@@chrisb778 yeah, every one is different
Platax teira eats tiny fish。
Most fish will eat anything that fits in their mouth, however with proper hides and environmental features in the tank I've raised neocaridina shrimp with pea puffers hehe
