I actually got my first fish tank when in prison and got 2 of them because I thought they were rare and one of the other inmates had one that was really active, now I'm out I have 4 of them and one is currently pregnant, I've found them very Hardy and they are one of my favourites, I know alot more about keeping fish now. They differently enjoy being a school as before when I had 2 they would avoid each other and fight, now they best friends, never noticed them to nip and they will est anything and like u said including flies and spiders, definitely a good beginning fish.

These fish are criminally underrated. Back when I didn't care about fish (I was 10), the water would turn cloudy and yellow. These guys were still speeding around the tank just fine. Obviously I know better now, but the point is these guys have outlived so many tankmates, an ich outbreak, and multiple parasite outbreaks. These guys are bulletproof, what they lack for in color, they make up for in activity. Get a group of 4-5 and they'll keep the tank looking busy. The ones I currently have will actually interact with the red eyed tetras as if they were their own kind!

Great video and personal stories and opinions on black skirts. Was fun to watch! Love this fish, hardy, fun, perfect dither fish and an action maker in a tank, are of their own mind. Have a school of 7 and over 2 years time can confirm that never was a case they nipped fins on my angels and paradise fish. Totally chill. I can also confirm that pleco babies and paradise babies got hunted down by tetras and consumed, twice got stuck in a tetra with sadly death of both. But then the babies were considered small enough to become food which I cannot imagine a grown-up neon tetra looks like to them.

I feed my axolotls flies I find around the house! 😂 I’ve noticed that skirt tetras behavior does change depending on how many there are in their group and how big a tank they are in. For example, I have 3 in a 10 gallon and they are very territorial amongst each other and often get into small fights. They are tough fish! They used to push around my apisto until he was fully grown. In larger groups there was less aggression and I only notice them schooling where there is a perceived threat like during a water change

I have 4 black skirt tetra's I already had one that survived my tanks heater failure. I just picked up 3 small ones, I would of liked to have gotten 5 but I didn't want to introduce to many fish at a time. They were school together for the 1st 2 days following the original one around probably because he is so much bigger. But on the 3rd day I found that 2 of them have become extremely territorial ganging up on the larger one. His fins are all torn appart he doesn't look very good at all. They also chase another similar size one into a corner. The tank is 20 gallon btw they must of been fighting a lot last night because everyone of them seems to have some fin damage. I'm not really exactly sure what I should do, if i should get another one to try and have a school of 5, I've heard that they school better in odd numbers or if i should just take them back and maybe try to have a different fish in with the original one. I'm really not sure.

I had a school of them for about 9 years and they were doing great and expected them to live a lot longer. However a defective heater caused the demise of everything in the tank. Not to cold, die to heat. I assume the regulator went out or the sensor and the temperature was well over 100 degrees in the tank. I currently have a school of little ones I got last week in my 30 gallon. They even do well with the little electric blue acara and the Serpae in there.

Chicken only took a couple days to being comfortable and full of color again and bonded w my pink glo tetra, now chicken is an a*hole now, mostly food aggresive first one to eat. So my female yellow betta "lemon" is so inquisitive and squints studying us so damn cute, so I feed her some blood worms by hand before feeding everyone since chicken is an a*hole. Have a see through tetra along w chicken pinky and lemon, and there's bob aka skinny man, is a purple glow i think danio, he's black tipped bug eye fellow lol. I didnt think id enjoy having these guys but i thought it'd be an "easy" pet for my toddler. Easy was a foolish thing to think, however Ive grown to like them and seeing their personalities come through and the learning just wow so much to learn initially. :)

I was told to get multiple black skirt tetras so the could school. I found that one tries to be dominant in the tank. Everyone who gets in his "area" gets nipped. It is very stressful for the other fish. I have a 75 gallon with 5 white skirts, 3 red eye tetras, 3 serpaes, 5 rasboras, 1 betta, and 8 or so guppies. My guppies were being killed so I moved the black skirts out and the tank is much calmer. In summary, I will not get anymore black skirts, they are JERKS, and are banished to a more aggressive tank. NOT a good community fish.

I got 7 of these in my 55 gallon. I've been getting some contradicting information. Some people say they do just fine with Angel Fish as long as they're fed well and have lots of room others say they'll nip their fins guaranteed. Anyone have any experience with this scenario?

They are serious fin nippers. Any fish with long flowing fins. Do not put in the tank

@@miscmeme sadly I found out the hard way when the local aquarium said a black moor goldfish would be fine with these fellas. They ate his fins off in one night. It was terrible. However with my neon tetras at worse they chase each other off . Nothing concerning.

Sadly one of my black skirt tetra was fin nipping my betta so I moved my betta to another 10 gallon with some guppies and dwarf gouramis, I’m thinking about moving all fish from these 2 10 gallons to a 29 gallon, hopefully my betta does not get fin nipped
