Good video! I set up a 125 a few months ago. Great size tank. I went with peacocks and haps. Long time fish keeper 1st time Cichlid tank. Not full grown but beautiful all male. Love this tank. Down side is I have a red shoulder peacock that is insane. I named him Satan. It got so bad he was trying to kill an OB and sunshine peacock. I had to take all the fish out of a 60 gallon tank and combine them in my 75 gal. Now Satan lives in the 60 with 1 bristle nose Pleco. I tried to move him back to the 125 and he went crazy. At 1st the OB he used to bully got the upper hand. Within 30 minutes Satan was back in charge and chasing anything that moves. It’s crazy! He is not even full grown. He may have to go

Great channel, very helpful information, thank you so much. I have a pair of red spotted gold severums in a 192 gallon American tank, they are up to 5-6 inches now. I don't know the names of the plants, but after many tries I stumbled upon a few types of plants that they don't devour, so in my experience it's not impossible to keep them in a planted tank. Perhaps it has to do with the size of tank, tank mates or other factors.

I know this video is 2 years old, but, Jason, there’s no reason to perpetuate the “poor man’s discus” nonsense. Severums have their own thing going. They don’t look like discus. They’re not sensitive weaklings like discus. They’re awesome fish that stand on their own and definitely don’t deserve to be referred to as a lesser form of another fish.

Rainbow fish!...A M.boesemani or M. trifasciata aka Goyder River can reach a chunky 5+"..kept in groups they can get great use of a 6' long tank. Good with most plants but tender leafed like Triparta?- Rainbows will eat them faster than they grow..but most common aquarium plants work perfect and of course Rainbows do no digging. Rainbows,Roselines,Garras,Clown Loaches..sort of a standard combo and why not? They go perfectly together.

I know this is an older video so I doubt you guys see this comment lol. But I am cycling a 120 gallon tank right now. I plan on in a powerhead and adding a bunch of river rock to sit on top of the sand, also gonna add slightly bigger field stones and some drift wood. Of course I am gonna heavily plant the tank. I am doing a multispecies community tank and was hoping for some ideas for fish. I do know i will probably end up with 3 or 4 pictus catfish. I am trying to stay in the South American river regions if that helps at all.

There’s many cool Thoricthys species. Maculipinnis are back in hobby and others available. Cicalasoma (old name) Robertsoni is another beautiful fish. Some of the best colors on an American cichlid. My thing is West African cichlids..Many don’t make good community fish but very underrated. Chromidotilapia soecies, Limbochromis, Rarer Hemichromis like Guinea 1 or 2, Steatocranus species, larger Pelvicachromis Humilis etc..Lots of more peaceful dwarfs too like P. Taeniatus, Analachromis Thomasi, Nanochromis. Some West Africans are one species but numerous color morphs like the P. Taeniatus. I’ve kept/bred Moliwe, Nigeria Red, Wouri, Kierke, Lobe. Really nice fish.

Depends on the size of the tank. Just looking at the fish I would assume they are in a 125 or larger (or will be at some point)? The kissing gouramis may be your next issue - those dudes are mean as they get older. :-) The Koi will eventually need a pond.

So I have recently got 6 viejas syspilums which are a mix of sizes... 1"-3". and a honey comb pleco. Planning on putting them into a 110 gallon. and calling it quits on stocking besides my bottom clean up crew. Hoping that I will be fine in the future, and if anyway you could do a video on what is best for there care; due to limited research on the web ive found on these fish. still needing equipment gravel and decor before I can add my fish in. IF you think I can succeed breeding these fish with other species involved please lmk. breeding them is eventually the end goal. I heard you out about pairs and that has made me think about using a 70 gal for spare tank.

Depends on where you live. If your temps are steady in the upper 70s to low 80s it could work. If they fall below mid 60s that might be too much for a heater to deal with on a consistent basis?

Tough to say for sure. Sometimes a combo like that works ok, other times you get a really aggressive male or two and the whole tank is a mess. If they are all males you could have decent amount of aggression. They will all grow quickly. If you have a 6ft 100 gallon, that will put you in a better spot.

I believe those are Opthalmotilapia Nasuta. Those aren't my fish, those were from a friends tank. Really cool - usually very expensive (I've seen them retail for $75 - $100 each).

Are there any cichlid species that crossbreed with one another (or any random cichlid)? Do these (if any) need to be kept away from one another due to negative cross breeding results?
@PrimeTimeAquatics
@PrimeTimeAquatics 4 жыл бұрын
Definitely can happen with African cichlids of similar types. Certainly, it can happen within the same genus of South/Central American cichlids as well. As they become more dissimilar it happens less.

So many of these fish are on my wish list. But, I can't find them to buy them. I love my severums but, I can only find Greens and golds locally. Vieja synspilum, green phantom pleco and that loach all seem to he my holy grail. If find them, their either too expensive or they're sold through different online sellers and the total in shipping kills the vibe of buying. I wish I could fine all these fish at one seller who had decent prices. Help!!

Ya, some of them are a little harder to find at an LFS. The Wet Spot usually has many of these fish, but the shipping cost is always an issue.
