O S C A R S ? ? ?
I am planning to built an aquarium for me and i have a question, as this is my first time in this hobby in a big tank i had a bowl before but anyways
– 3l x 1b x 2 h size glass aquarium , which mm glass do you think will be the best for this size ? Please help
Hey just curious i didn't hear anything on this video about fish that aren't very friendly i had a few fish you can recommend but they don't like to share the area as well, I got a bigger tank and everything seemed fine but one fish had died due to stress and ammonia. I am aware you said in the beginning requires some research but I thought you'd say this in the video, now I love the video and enjoyed it just want a little more information in the future if possible for those slightly harder to take care of fish 🙂 keep it up thanks for the information 🙂
So good
Thanks for the video.
What is the best fish kept with bettas? I have my betta in a 5 gallon tank and he honestly seems bored and kind of I wanna say lonely. I know I can’t pair him with another betta cause they will fight. I’m not sure what I can do for him because my tank is kind of small
Gotta say swordtail
crayfish are easy
Thanks!!
I don't think goldfish are easy to have for beginners, because I'm a beginner (my fishes died like 3 years ago) and it was not so easy, now i know more things but I don't know so much about water values and this things
Good video
I literally got a cat advert before this 😂
I have been really thinking about getting a 3-4ft tank as a beginner. I know that’s big but I want to have a planted one. I want Siamese Algae Eaters White Clouds Cherry Barbs maybe Harlequin Rasboras and maybe Black Neon Tetras. Please let me know if any shouldn’t be together or if I shouldn’t get that many. Or if the tank will be too small for all of those.
Those Neons and Cardinals look awesome!
Im really cheap right now with like only 40 dollars,i wanna get a bigger tank and today i got my first 2 neon and i want 2 more fish,what filter to get,and what fish would go eith those neon
I love the speed of this video 😁
Love all your videos. For those of us outside the US, whenever you say X gallon tank, could you please also say Y liter tank soon after? Please.
Stop the press! Iv had fish as an amatour for years and wanted to start over with some easy choises of fish. Watched this video 4 – 5 Times and took notes. Bought some from the top 10 list a month ago. So far one or more of the platie have murderd 1 tetra per night. What the holy frank did i do wrong?
Zebra Danios are a great starter for tropical tanks, they're very active and hearty.
Betas is that wht we in the uk call a siamese fighting fish
nice for video
Stop buying Goldfish. Just don't.
I was fishing last summer (wading) & a goldfish swam up to me. lol
love this guy man is really stright foward and informative !
Wow I appreciate you brother. I can tell you really take pride in your work and are very knowledgeable. I been wanting a beautiful aquarium in my house but I don’t want to harm any fish with my lack of knowledge on how to care for them. This video really helped me out I’m thinking of going with the angel fish, Very nice 👍

i love my corys
does any of you think harlyquinn rasboras would be fine in a school of five
I should get the gold fish
If you get goldfish only put them in your garden pond.
Man the content is amazing, great job.
Hi Cory great video! I’d like to ask why did you say we cannot keep angels with neon tetras?
What is the fish in the thumbnail
Hi ! When you say your name ( in the beginning) I can't make out a single syllable. (The rest of the video is easier to understand and more … interesting )
I know this was 3 years ago… but I wanted to know if Oranda Goldfish are not a beginner fish to have.
