Black Nasty Cichlid Care - Aggression

[@warrendavies1592]

Andy woods has some of the best fish got some really nice black nastys

[@bobbuilder9813]

I have that big 14 inch male he had he will mention me in his next video Brandon lol

[@131Tysean]

Hey Warren email me man . [e-mail] I'm looking to purchase some

[@CrazyguyRC]

I had one of these and he never stopped wanting to fight the other fish. Meanest fish ever ! !

[@OtterCreekAquatics]

Beautiful fish man! Hope you and your family feel better soon!

[@themancmt]

I used to breed them in late 2000s. I have a video on here. Nowhere near as aggressive as a dovii or umbee. Dovii have big freaking teeth. Still 1 of my favorites.

[@drip_got_kickz]

Must’ve bin a Cuban cichlid that you kept because this breed has same teeth as dovii and are known to be meaner than them my black nasty would destroy my dovii even if he was fully grown

[@jonsaladin]

Amazing I’ve dabbled in many aspects of the fish keeping hobby I’m hooked on rare monster hybrid fish losing any of my fish is a complete downer she did an amazing job with her exclusive pair just keep your head up and continue your fantastic job.

[@coreygendron3766]

I see them now and then in pet stores here in Michigan

[@TMAquatics]

Don’t see these very often. There are times I wish I had a few monster size tanks for fish like these. I’d definitely try this one. Oh well, back to my plecos 😉👍

[@awakenedanarchism4202]

a fish store in Daytona beach has them

[@harrisonhanson2998]

Some of these fish would be great IF most of us had the kind of space that some of these require bc these aggressive huge centerpiece fish take a up an entire tank all on their own. That’s a GORGEOUS pair tho, to be seeing the difference in size & coloring is amazing. I’ve never even heard of these fish I don’t think. They seem to be selling quite cheaply on eBay, & it looks like a male. Yea, I’m constantly finding new cichlids also & while it can be a heartbreaking hobby mainly bc in 1 word; DISCUS! It’s still a fun hobby for me & the good is still far outweighing the bad.

[@mattsmonsterfish1615]

What’s up bro 🤙 sick fish!!

[@markkrok5071]

Hey Palmer you familiar with Guatope Mel on here? Hes a excellent keeper of Cichlids one of the 1st he has a couple 600 gallons and a 1000 gallon best set ups i seen

[@manuelbolt9945]

They are BEAUTIFUL!!! very good video...

[@tracemiller1519]

I have 4 black nasties atm and 3 of the 4 are completely chill and keep it mostly calm but this (second biggest one) is an absolute psycho path and so aggressive I have to change something

[@anthonyjohnson2744]

Thanks for your insight on the Black Nasty . Do you know where I can get some from

[@lightbright8454]

I lost my Dovii only 15 inches but my boy was meann... Biggest my Black Nasty got one 5 inches cool fish...

[@bmoreoutdoors4684]

Never saw these guys before. There amazing!!! I want some 🤗

[@aquariumhacksbymarcus5653]

Hard to say if this fish will be more aggressive than the dovi I believe it is closely related to it but of course it could not defeat a full-grown almost 30 inch dovi around the same size who knows it's possible

[@VoxGav-bd9rc]

markie mark If they were both 12 inches, it would be closer than most people think. But yes, if a Dovii was fully grown it wouldn’t be fair at that point.

[@waterpuppyaquatics7864]

I have a beautiful young trio of these guys

[@michaelsnyder3577]

Awesome video! I cannot decide which fish to house in my 110g. I have it narrowed down to a Butti or Black nasty. I love fish with personality and huge mouths. Lol. Which do you think is overall the better wet pet? Thanks!

[@IslamicSunnahGuidance]

Keep black nasty cichlids, they do have so much personality and they are predators that have huge mouthes, they are really cool fish, i am keeping them in my aquariums, but they are extremly aggressive, they are like a parachrmis dovii, my black nastys teeth are very sharp, so they can kill other fish if they bite them !!

[@Aquariumswithty]

They both look awesome! I’m sorry she lost her male

[@58MrMike]

I have raised many pairs and currently have two breeding pairs. They have been very easy to keep and no more aggressive than others. I have kept them as low as 70 degrees but they seem to like 78-80. Where can I send you a video to?

[@mitchellwillis5475]

Post a video I would love to see them..

[@bobbuilder9813]

I’ve got 3 of these 3 inch pair and 14 inch male

[@GoBrand0n]

Selling any?

[@bobbuilder9813]

Chris P. Bacon no mate sorry there already sold and I’ve moved into black Piranha much more aggressive

[@darrenthrower8221]

At the moment some one has them for sale on ebay

[@carloss3809]

Loosing your big boss is hard!!

[@jasonrolling9347]

I own a female and male Cuban. Im trying to pair them. They are still small. 3.25 inch male n a 2.75 in female. Shes in a growout tank. I tried them and he chaced her down. When they get bigger ill be posting videos

[@lukeevans6648]

Got them in the UK £7 each 4inchs long

[@sondercichlidaquariums4951]

They're great fish but the only thing is genetics. The last wild caught pair were in 2003 I think it was , same with Cubans, their catch locations are amongst the most dangerous in the world. Linzies male came from Andy woods, literally all the one in the uk are related to andys fish. They've started importing them from Germany but with no wild caught they become far far removed from how they should be. I always try to get f0 fish but had to settle for f2 Cubans . When some new blood comes in for the odos I'll be grabbing ten.

[@andywoodscichlids2942]

I believe the female came from me, but not the male. My males have black faces without the knuckle hump. That male was from Rob.

[@sondercichlidaquariums4951]

Andy Woods I believe from what I've researched there's literally only a couple bloodlines available, yours and a couple others.The female looks like yours , I'm sure this wasn't her big male, I'm sure she had a XL male odo? I think my pair may have originally come from linzie from what I can find out. I was told by someone in the business that the fish imported from Germany and the Czech Republic sold as odos are a Haitiensis X tetracanthus hybrids. There's a video of linzies of her juveniles and there is the most perfect small male amongst them I've seen in ages already with a nuchal hump. I'd give £250 for that male lol. If you have any small odos let me know please pal, don't really want odo from Europe that may not even turn out to be full odo

[@domoniquewilliams9728]

Hi Palmer, can you put me in contact with your friend. i am looking for a pair of these for myself.

[@michiganaquatics2394]

Wow they look sweet cool vid keep it up

[@VanChandama]

Awesome video

[@awakenedanarchism4202]

I have a breeding pair, they spawn every 35 to 50 days

[@bentuininga2880]

Where can you buy Linsays fry?

[@MrPoohbae1000]

Just looked at a one was thinking of getting it large one for 150

[@warrendavies1592]

Just bought a tigrinus catfish looks like the tiger shovel nose but only grows 24 inches so perfect 😁

[@AngelosFishTanks]

Oh wow these are cool looking

[@rikstar.]

Whats max size of theses fish?

[@davidbowman2501]

Personally don't think the male looks that great, but the female with mostly black looks really sweet.

[@Ace-wu4zm]

Do they have teeth?

[@StanTheObserver-lo8rx]

Little Kuhli loaches eating neons? Never heard of that. I would say you've mixed too many aggressive fish with fish not aggressive or slow eaters. The problem is..fish who are not of the same habits is what makes things fail most of the time. If you had Rope fish with neons...there is where they went!

[@marblegoby972]

I have a big pair right now.

[@johnbanks2859]

I have one

[@salvalenti5870]

Damn i dont know which one i like more the male or the female

[@qwertyq4073]

Doviis and Black Nastys are equally aggresive, Doviis are just tougher imo

[@gregoryanderson2306]

@@VoxGav-bd9rc yes I have as long as the fish are of equal size dovii aren't the things out there....look up 5 spot junkie on U tube hit him up as well and see for yourself also look up beani vs dovii you will be surprised

[@gregoryanderson2306]

@@VoxGav-bd9rc and by the way don't think you ever saw a manueli or humeralis piranha known as Silver piranha they will kill ANYTHING you put in the tank and get well over 10 pounds 20 inches they will eradicate a dovii or any other cichlid you put in with them

[@drip_got_kickz]

You must be a dovii owner my black nasty would kill anything in its path trust me any dovii not even full grown could beat a 7-10 inch black nasty and that’s not even fully grown

[@gregoryanderson2306]

That's my point you are mistaken size for aggression....and I seen Umbees on plenty of occasions say 50% of the time defeat a dovii....but back to your other point pygocentrus are shoaling piranhas....serrasalmus are not elognatus, humeralis, manueli and rhombus are super aggressive and the last three can get over 20 inches....I been messing with tropical and salt water fish since I was a kid and I'm 50 now and those four species of piranhas devastate any cichlid....and the whole debate was aggression if you can keep fish in with a dovii in an aquarium without incidents and other species not no matter the tank size then they are not the most aggressive fish out there....I had a 600 gallon with several golden Dorado, African tiger, aimara wolf fish armatus, and a red tail cat in the end I had 2 Dorado and the cat left and the Dorado constantly tried to kill each other I also caught and acclimated an 16 inch northern snakehead in a few weeks they destroyed him too yes dovii are large but but trust me there are plenty of fish that will not only chase them around but even kill them!!! And those pirahna species I mentioned research them they are hyper aggressive 3 of he species get over 20 inches and have the hardware to back their aggression and one last thing I love fishing done it all over the world I never heard of nor seen a 30 inch dovii....emperor cichlids, peacock bass some snooks pushing 28 or so....but the largest I ever saw was 20 to 22 inches just like snakeheads look up the world records NONE were 4 foot nor over 30 pounds....dorado get over 50 pounds and are an apex predator in South America cichlids and pirahna are dinner to them and they are born cannibals and aggressive predators from the egg....I enjoy talking with you though my friend good luck and happy fish keeping!!!

Wow sweet looking fish,sad the male died.Great vid thanks

[@briansfishtanks]

Great video! I’ve got a really sweet pair did breed like regularly for me. Check out one of my first room tour videos if you’d like to check them out. I saw from one of your other videos that you live in Minnesota. I’m also in Minnesota. Stumbled upon your channel from Cory’s giveaway. I’ll have to go check out more of your vids.

[@Filotus]

Sounds like you had covid before covid.

[@slickchick5811]

the females always look nicer. Males have a clumsy form. I hear they're prone to bloat very easily. The female in the vid don't look intimidated at all.

[@VoxGav-bd9rc]

SlickChick Not at all. Large males are quite nimble despite some being incredibly beefy.

Where is Lindsay I need a female my male killed her.

[@MRS-pz4me]

Thhey are like a red devil in matters of aggresion, p.Dovii is way far ahead in aggresiveness and killing potential. Anyways they are really cool fish tons of personality, they look cranky 24/7 and they are beautiful

The female is very toxic 🤣. I have a pair
