Top 5 Livebearers for Beginners

[@PULAG]

Never realized how dominant and badass small Mollies can be. They are lively swimmers and constantly hungry, and mine even punk down angelfish and barbs.

[@FishTankBarn]

Nice MK! There are some small fish out there that are mighty

[@patrickevelyn8028]

Livebearers, defenitly my favorite... Like there's comfort foods, there's comfort fishes

[@FishTankBarn]

I would agree Patrick! There are comfort fishes for sure

Awesome video, underrated channel, livebearer nerds unite!

[@FishTankBarn]

Thanks Chalupa! Glad that you enjoy the channel

Great selection. Maybe someday I will try some sword tails? Almost everything else I have either had or now have. Always had a soft spot for the live bearers and finely got to a point in my life where I want to start trying some breading projects with endlers, guppies, sunset variatus platies and cherry shrimp. We will see how much trouble I can get into.

[@FishTankBarn]

Thanks Dwayne. Swordtails are a lot of fun. Good luck in your future breeding projects.

[@marychastain8041]

Make sure the tank has a cover. They're bad jumpers.

[@dwayneparsons543]

@@marychastain8041 Fairly certain I'm done with live bearers for a while. My Endlers are jumpers as well if you leave the lid open. Just don't have a source for getting rid of fish and I don't want to get involved with shipping fish.

[@becausebeth6389]

Very informative and great b-roll, only change I would make is some quiet background music but that's just me!

[@FishTankBarn]

Thanks @becausebeth! I go back and forth on music. Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it.

[@Mr.Plant1994]

This is a great video though, and makes me want to get into keeping them again.

[@FishTankBarn]

Thanks Cody! I have found livebearers to be a lot of fun.

[@bentleytelles7295]

I got Endler hybrids and they all died :,( im gonna try guppy’s since I hear they’re hardy since I want a colorful Livebearer and endlers are beautiful but hard to find we’re I am 😅 also I have shrimp so that doesn’t leave me with many options

[@bentleytelles7295]

What’s ur thought?

[@FishTankBarn]

Guppies would be ok. If there is a local fish club in your area try finding them there instead of the fish store.

[@bentleytelles7295]

Oh ok i think i found some female cobra endlers but i will definitely see if i have a fish club near me 😊

[@Mr.Plant1994]

I think most live bearers are great for beginners.

[@FishTankBarn]

Thanks Cody Plant! Yes a lot of livebearers can be considered beginner fish. However, there are a lot of neat and interesting species of livebearer if you look hard enough

[@Mr.Plant1994]

I’m really fond of a lot of the goodieds

Hey, what was that small almost bass looking fish at 1:40 ?

[@FishTankBarn]

It’s a capalicthys encaustus a goodeid species

[@chevyfish4028]

Great video. These are all beautiful, hardy fish which come in many varieties of color and finnage. My favorite is the red tiger platy.

[@FishTankBarn]

Thanks Chevy! I really enjoy livebearers! I keep having new favorites, red tiger platys are cool!

R.I.P.: mosquito fish

[@FishTankBarn]

Sorry they didn't make the list. Definitely one that you can keep if you are a beginner.

@@FishTankBarn if I’m being honest I wasn’t expecting it to be 💀💀 but I’m going to start a Molly breeding project and I already started my platy breeding project my first one gave birth.
