    WHAT???? You just said in your other video that Angelfish were difficult for beginners, and yet in here you say they are excellent for beginners. I used to breed fancy goldfish: easy, but a lot of work, just like you said because of the large bio-load. I LOOOOOOVE your videos!! Keep them coming! ;) I wish you were in the US! I'd stock my tanks with your fish. I have a 90 gallon and a 55 gallon.

      I was just gonna post the same thing... This just proves that you shouldn't trust people on the internet as "professionals". Good thing he is ignoring you. I hope this comment makes it to the top. Here's the video where he claims that angel fish are not for begginers if anyone is interested. ua-cam.com/video/b-uD3CIXe_A/v-deo.html

      @@feenie8855 I guess this shows that it depends on how much you care you put onto your fish. Angelfish may be "easy" if you are fuzzy about your fish; but a little hard to keep and breed if you don't want to do much work....? I don't know. I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt. His tanks look amazing, and his fish look very healthy so I am sure he knows a lot.

      angelfish are great fishes but get aggressive and big. if the beginner has a bigger aquarium and keep maybe 2-3 of them it might be okay

    Hobbyists unanimously consider White Cloud Mountain Minnow
    s to be much hardier than Neon Tetras (which are actually relatively fragile). Albeit, the tetras probably look nicer.

    • @garg4531
      @garg4531 Рік тому

      Personally I'd recommend harlequin rasboras over neon tetras. Much hardier but often overlooked in favor of them
      Interestingly they're also in the same family as white clouds and zebra danios, both considered to be some of the hardiest fish, while tetras in general are usually very sensitive to water quality despite their immense popularity

    ... Plecos are awesome. How can anyone not want one? That said, my first pleco was a sailfin that was mislabeled as a common pleco - which was problematic enough. It wasn't long before it had to go live in someone else's heated pond. But it was a beautiful fish the last time I saw it!

      My first pleco was a common that my parents got as an algae eater for our 55-gallon. He was still my favorite fish and I love plecos so much, but next time I'll be sticking with a bristlenose. I'll still be sure to spoil them with plenty of food like my old common was

    Are there any small fish that last long? I’d like something like a neon tetra but that does not only live for 2 years. Or something that replenishes it’s school population over time without over breeding…?
    I’ve spent like 50 dollars total replacing neon tetras that keep dying in my 55 gallon tank :/. I like the neon tetras but if they keep dying off like that then I guess I can’t keep buying them.

      He has learned a lot from the time he posted this video to his recent post of bad beginner fish.

    Bristlenose plecos and kuhli loaches are not centerpiece fish. They both hide, they're mainly bottom dwellers, and they're not the most colourful fish. Good centerpiece fish are sparkling gouramis, samurai gouramis, and powder blue gouramis. Some more centerpiece fish are bettas, killifish, and apistogramma cichlids. Angels and goldfish dont make good beginners. Angels are semi aggressive and require a large tank. Goldfish also require a large tank and produce a lot of bio load. Not a lot of people have a 40+ gallon tank because they're so expensive. I don't reccomend those for beginners.

    Then a year later he put plecos, goldfish, barbs, angelfish, guppies, and tetras on "NOT beginner fish" lol
