@rat_dragon 3 года назад

Fathead Minnows are one of my favorite fish in the hobby! In fact, even after fishkeeping for over 10 years, they might just be my favorite! They have absolutely HUGE personalities! They're incredibly personable, they react to you coming up to the tank, they're beautiful (if you like dark grey/peach colorations), they're compadible with Egg-Bellied Goldfish, they'll eat absolutely anything, they're easy to breed, they're not usually aggressive, and they're cheap! I mean, what more could you want in a fish? I once had two very large 3" males in a 75g, and when it got to be roughly 72°F, they would start "dancing", showing off, and headbutting! They would do this for hours on end, even though I had no females in that tank! Best of all, even though this should probably be considered aggression, they would never rip up one another's fins unlike so many other species! Overall, Fathead Minnows will always have a special place in my heart, and there will be one day when I keep two large males in a 125 with Goldfish again! :D

@melissatrent2500 Год назад

I love my rosy red minnows! I have them in with my neon tetras and they are great! Someone suggested them to me as a pet fish, and reluctantly I got them thinking they'd be boring. Boy was I wrong! They are all over the place, and a plus is they keep the gravel clean as well as the plants an decor, they will get whatever food drops on the plants and decor and gobble it up. A downside is they hoard the food, my poor neons can't get to the food fast enough so I end up feeding a little bit more once the rosys are done eating. It all works out though, both my rosys and neons are happy and thriving.

@James-yv1qq 3 года назад

Goldfish (not the bubble eyes). A lot of them are very pretty and they have a great personality. I think a lot of people don't like them because their labeld as a "beginner" fish so it gives the feeling of "I'm a experiance fish keeper, I dont keep goldfish"

@Fizzypopization 3 года назад

Honestly I don't like goldfish because the only tanks that really should be holding them are large ones or ponds. They get to be very massive even standards can get up to a foot long. But you are right they are very pretty.

I really enjoy all of what you do, and even though I've been on and off fish keeping all of my life you have taught me so much more than I expected, and I appreciate my tank so much more now. I'd like to think that my overstocked 20 gallon is doing so well is thanks to your public service to the fishkeeping world, and yes I do intend to fix the overstocking issue when the 10 gallon finally finishes cycling (round 3 of trying, have a sponge seeding in the 20) And finally I'd like to add one more oddball underappreciated fish, and yes just because it's in EVERY tank ever, doesn't mean it's under appreciated, it just means people treat it as a dime a dozen. The fish I'm talking about is neon tetras.

Giant Danios are one of my favorites! I’ve kept them in nearly every fresh water tank I’ve owned and they are normally the first fish in the tank when it’s started up. I haven’t had a tank in about a decade now, but will be once I get my 100 gallon back from getting split and resealed. Giant Danios will be the first in that tank as well. I did also normally keep a couple rosy reds in my tanks. I would call them my “death row parolees”. They stand out a lot more in a tank than one might think.

Has anyone ever kept killi fish

@butkusfan23 3 года назад

I was going to mention killis! I have kept Golden Wonder killifish, and they were great. Males get to about 4 inches with great red and green highlights to their fins which highlights their golden color. Friendly, plant safe, but if not fed well they will prey on fry and small fish. I was feeding my guppies one day and one of them was only half grown, and the killi laid in wait beneath it to get fed. Well, the killi got tired of waiting for food, and just grabbed the juvenile guppy instead. The only reason I see to *not* keep killis is if you are trying to raise a lot of baby fish, since they are small predators. Other than that, they are great.

@ModifiedMut 3 года назад

Can I just say you and Lisa have stand up business etiquette! Here in my county in WA there's only one fish shop that's owner ran. I used to shop there 2x a week minimum until she sold me a few baby male bettas on accident for my sorority. Within a week they started maturing and decimated my sorority before I could see they had lost their egg spots and were hunting at night. When I brought them back she argued with me that they were just "turning into pretty females" gave no store credit or refund and then sold them off again as females 🤦
