Stocking an aquarium with new fish can be a daunting task if you're not sure what you're looking for or what type of fish will work best in your tank. Lizzie leads us through her process of making sure her new planted aquarium is cycled and how she picks new fish to occupy different levels of the tank.

Understanding the nitrogen cycle was the hardest part for me when I set up my first tank. Thanks to Cory and peanut butter M&M’s I got the hang of it and have several tanks that are doing great 😄🙂
Exact same for me!
Thanks for confirming that's a great video to share with new hobbyists!
Was for me too but it was back in the 90s and the information wasn't as easily available as it is today. Although I managed, it probably wasn't until a few years later when I truly understood it. Having access to TH-cam channels like this has truly enhanced the hobby 😊
I remember my first tank took months to cycle lol now my tanks cycle in 24 hrs lol
Dude really needs for love for that video. Really makes you wonder just how many people picked it up with "the M&M talk". 😅
Something helpful I read online, is that if you have your heater set up then keeping the water temp at 80 or above while starting the nitrogen cycle will help the beneficial bacteria grow.
It was very refreshing to see a simple trip to the shop to pick out fish. As always there are a lot of options. I do enjoy the stocking decided, wonderful choices!
Agreed
8 minute commercial... Thanks, keep up y'alls awesomeness and go enjoy some nature today...!
5:18 the cory that got left in the bag 🥺
I know, I noticed after the camera cut - he made it in the tank safely :) ~Lizzie
I love this scape and the stocking. I think I need to setup my 10gal similar to that.
Same here lol
Thank you Lizzie. Love the tank and video. Great info!👍👍👍👍
Agreed
Just thought I'd let you guys know we just got 2 of your new lights and two heaters. We love them and it's so nice to be able to get co-op stuff here in newfoundland Canada thanks to April's aquarium.
Beautiful tank!
Seriously, though. Can we please see more of Lizzie? ❤❤❤
One of my favorite channels. You all got me into the hobby. Now im at four tanks and completely addicted. All along the way i have learned a ton from this channel. So thank you!
Great video 😊 I got new fish for my fish room also 😊 a Bichir and Platys
We have a 25 gallon planted tank. We had a small group of pygmy cories who were doing great but as soon as we added 8 green neon tetras the cories became unhappy, hiding all the time and not swimming in the mid water like they used to. Thought these would go well together! Bummer. Anyway cool tank :) hi all. ✌️
Like how you got the plants going first.
Ok, so I have a question. I have a 13 gallon tank. I want a honey gourami ( a male) as my centerpiece fish. Then a schooling of 10 blue teras coz I absolutely love them. They are truly the fish which I mostly want in my tank. My question is for my cleaning crew. How many pigmy corys can I add to the above mentioned team to match the requirements of the 13 gallon tank?
good for beginners but test strips are okay for quick checks, you shouldnt use them to ensure a cycle is done though, far to often even your version of them, they are wrong. no argument here but I wish you at least included you should do a liquid test kit for at least ammonia and nitrite, or 50 percent waterchanges everyday for the first week after adding fish if only using strips
Great Video, tank looks awesome!
how adorable , thanks!
Great video!!! :)
Thank You! This is a very helpful video. Perfectly clear, straight to the point, and smoothly filmed and cut.
What is the source of ammonia in a new tank before fish are added?
Jump starting the cycle….Aldo I like to slowly introduce the fish. Not too many at once or the cycle could crash.
that heater looks so nice!! definitely gonna be payin a visit to the website soon haha
This video exasperates my MTS (Multi Tank Syndrome).. And it should come with a disclaimer!
I love this, we need more videos like these
where was the ammonia coming from?
Snails and plant melting.
If I wanted to add a feature fish, like a dwarf honey gourami, would I need to reduce the other two types of fish added? Mine is 10 gallons as well.
I would, rule of thumb is 1 inch of fish pre gallon.
@@anthonyscavone5856 This rule is antiquated and does not compensate for bio load or fish temperament. I'd be hesitant to recommend this as a guideline.
Looking good
Great video on how to start up a new tank. Great job!
Must have fishes in the hobby
More Lizzie, please. 👍
Isn’t the bio load too much? Twelve fish seem like too much for a 10 gallon
The fish are smaller so it's ok. 1 inch of fish per gallon is the basic rule..
With the live plants, it should be fine.
is this about the max number of fish that you would want or could you do any more?
Awesome video.I want to set up similar aquarium for my kids.Where can I find information on whole setup im this aquarium?
If the Cory's don't finish the sinking food, do you have to remove it so it doesn't cause too much bacteria in the tank?
When you use a sython will it suck up my nano fish and shrimp also should my tank smell while its cycling?
great
Bring back the unboxings!
Any details about tiger goliath fish kindly post
Great comnercial😂 very informative
So that first bag you added seems like one didn’t make it out lol.
What is a ‘cookie cutter setup’ because if it’s what I think it is (stocking ideas) that would be perfect
Yes, that is what they are! Here is the link to the setups that we have on our website. ~ Zenzo www.aquariumcoop.com/pages/help-center#/collection/5073
Nice tank
Can we get videos of Dean and Cory again?
We have a couple of new videos with Dean and Cory coming out in the next few weeks. ~ Zenzo
Toss in prime! I Aldo don’t use heaters 🙂
5:17 cory stuck in the bag i hope it was ok :(
Show parabéns 🤠👍🦈🇧🇷
What light for 11.88 gallon or 50x27x33 cm do you recommend?
I have recently put tidal 35 filter and now i want some good light.
6:47 - _"An all-in-one fertilizer like Easy Green is perfect because it has all the nutrients the plants need..."_
Brawndo has what plants crave. It's got electrolytes. 😁
LOL
I don't understand why every company puts nitrites on the regular test strip. It would be much more useful to have a cycling test trip with ammonia, nitrites and nitrates all on one strip. Then have only nitrates on the general strip with other useful metrics.
The reacting chemicals used in the ammonia tests cannot be kept with the other tests. This is why they are always separated. ~ Zenzo
👍🏻👍🏻
My habrosus keep dying as much as i acclimate them. They're so hard to keep alive is like i buy 10 because i know they'll die and 2 survive and im wondering if it's the store because no other fish i but from anywhere else died but they're the only one that sell those cory. The other chain stores around me said they can't order them because of their mortality rate. Any advice? And good video
I also stopped buying fish from them because they die off quick and pop up with diseases some I've never heard of until I shop at that store its just I really want habrosus lol
And they only have a 48 hr guarantee so I feel like they know something wrong. The other stores have 4 days and up to 30 days
Hm, I would stop buying from that source too and maybe check online/auctions/local clubs if you're looking for that specific fish. Testing your tank water might be helpful too in case there is something you aren't seeing ~Lizzie
@@AquariumCoop thank you
This was a very ADSM to watch. SO many steps left out that as a beginner I would have liked to know. How did you plant your plants & create the landscape (btw it is beautiful). There should be a more detailed process of acclimating the fish when you bring them home/add water to the bag/ release the fish into the tank. This is where despite the best instructions/intentions I lose fish. Also your measure by pouring the bacteria doesn't seem exact... does that matter?
This video is the second part of two :) The first part of this video came out a couple weeks ago & it shows how to build and plant the aquarium. There are different ways of adding new fish, I essentially followed this guide and just kept the fish in the bag: www.aquariumcoop.com/blogs/faqs/how-to-acclimate-new-aquarium-fish
Also - when pouring in the bacteria, I personally don't measure, it's safe to add 10x the minimum dose (1/2 cup per 10 gallons). I try to add more just to make sure there is plenty available. ~Lizzie
🐟💥🤙🏼
Dang it. Always disappointed when it's not a cory video. Just saying ❤
I didn’t think you were supposed to add that many fish at once to a new tank
Not gonna lie but kind of disappointing that i have to buy a seperate test kit to read ammonia not sure if there is an actual reason behind this but doesnt make sense
The reacting chemicals for ammonia cannot be kept with the other tests. This is why the ammonia test kits are separated. ~ Zenzo
I never see videos in which she is featured.
She has videos on our Facebook and our second channel More Aquarium Coop
I wanna buy easy green but you guys don't have a company that doesn't ship here disappointment
Never put shop water in your tank.
Funny how you all compicate everything. If your water smells bad then you know you water is bad. I think the biggest problem with a lot of new aquarist is really over feeding. Then everything goes downhill. But good way to explain the process😀
Perhaps the title of this should be something like 'Setting up a new aquarium like everyone else'. There was 3 minutes on the nitrogen cycle, didn't explain anything except relying on chemicals, and already adding fish after a month or so. So sad. Not saying your products are bad. The foundation in setting up an aquarium in this video is unfortunately, flawed. Too many good people out there to demonstrate this that you could incorporate your products to. This was just silly.
I watched this video twice thinking I had missed the 'chemicals' the first time. I saw bottled bacteria being used, I sure wouldn't call that a chemical and bacteria is what the cycling process is all about so yeah, speeding up the process with bottled bacteria is a great way to go, SILLY not to 🤗
There are existing videos that go in-depth on aquarium cycling and seasoning, and the difference between the two, if you are interested. They can be found here:
