Our otocinclus has outlived just about every fish we've had in our tank. Sometimes we think he's dead because we haven't seen him for a while but then he pops up again 😅.
I used to have a betta in with a few guppies. He absolutely loved eating the fry which was good for me as our tank wasn't massive and guppies have a tendency to just breed like crazy. The adults never bothered him and he never got aggressive with them either so they were a perfect match.
Everyone in the comments: "Omg those are Neons, not Cardinals." apparently you guys were too busy typing your comment instead of listening to him say he doesn't have video of Cardinals.
Actually when I decided to try having a Guppy I never even thought about housing them with other fish aside from Mollies because as far as I know they are some what related and they do crossbred rarely and they are both chill and share the same diet. I just run into a bit of problem on what food to feed them both since they have small mouth and come across a powder type food for juvenile fish and I mix them with a fine powder feeds for the fry, so all fishes can be fed at once.
Otocinclus requires basically opposite water parameters than guppies . Just like neons .guppies , like all poecilids thrive in hard water with higher ph . True that they can adapt but there is difference between just keeping fish and keeping them well .
Not a bad video. Although the point about Corydoras (not corydorous like you said) needing sand substrate is incorrect. Rounded non course substrate is favourable for them. Sand substrate needs to be very fine as anything sharp with damage the barbels.
In my tank, I have 1 male and 1 female swordtail and 1 female guppy. I am in need of more fish since the tank itself is the same as big as yours in behind. So thanks for this one. 👍
Can I have about 8 guppies, 2 bristlenose plecos, and 6 corydoras in a 20 gal? I’m starting my first planted tank and I want to know if they can live together
I think my mollies have killed my guppies? 😔 and eaten most of them?? They seem to have just vanished. Never had a problem when it was just platy and guppy but when I added mollies the guppies mysteriously vanished one by one!
So what am I doing wrong? I have 5 tetras and they have been thriving for alittle over a year, I also have 3 rasboras and they also have been thriving for aver a year...but you said you need WAY more than that for them to be successful...what have I done wrong?
I had some bad experiences with Sword Tails. My worst was with my first Guppy fish tank. I decided they needed some fish mates and put in some Mollies and Sword Tails. Right away I started seeing some fin nips on the Guppies. But since I hadn't seen any attackings I though it was a water issue. After a couple of weeks all Guppies were dead but some Mollies and the Sword Tails were left. I grew suspicious of one of the Mollies cause it looked somewhat aggressive but alas it got its tail niped and died. The beginning of the end was when there were only 2 Sword Tails left; one male one female and she was harassing him and he died. I was the female Sword Tail all along but I was to study to notice it and really didn't expect it. I wanted to have a peaceful tank with Guppies again so I decided to convict the female Swords Tail to my Turtle (Red-eared sliders) tank. She lasted for about a week or so until they caught up with her and took her apart.
@@elma6okolad Naah dear. I finally realised even with the planted tank, mollies are the bully fish n nippers. Don't keep them with anyone . They even nipped the plants n destroyed them totally
When I learned about Mollies... cause I can't tell between a guppies and a Molly. I asked mom to buy a female guppie because for my male guppies and when she bought her, I was, Its normal. And after I watched this video, I look at my first female guppie, she looks like the mollies. Did I just make a hybrid ON ACCIDENT?
Hey I just got one male fancy guppy and two young girl ones I added a molly that is orange and black at first I thought the guppy was playing with the molly and the molly was playing with the guppy but as I look closer it seems they are nipping each other! Do you think that will continue or would it stop, if it continues should I take the molly back? They just chase each other everywhere!!!
Bummer. I have 3 guppies with red tails and 1 with a blue tail and they ganged up on it. I then went and got 3 more blue guppies and the fin nipping completely stopped. The 1 blue guppy has a little under half it’s tail left but is still going super strong. Felt great to save the dilemma (:
Some of these you mentioned are semi-aggressive, and I would never have them with Guppies, esp. a Gourami! (unless I put the Guppies in there as feeders)
i dont know man , i have that small stripe gourami about 4 mounts now , with guppies , never happened something , but i must say its a pretty large tank , like 200 litres ^_^
@@CarpathianWolves 200 litres? That's about 50 gallons, right? (Sorry, I'm an American... yeah, I know, I know! lol) But, yeah, that's a big tank, and I suppose if you have a regular feeding schedule, there's nothing to worry about, but yeah, personally, I would never put any aggressive or semi-aggressive fish in with passives in a 20 gallon tank (75 litres) which is what most people have, I would assume! I have 8 small regular Goldfish, 1 small Pleco, 1 small Shebunkin (I'll be getting 2 more soon), 1 Julii Cory and 1 Peppered Cory, and 2 male and 2 female Fancy Guppies, and one regular female Guppy, all this in a 20 gallon show tank. I had 3 ghost shrimp, too, but I can't see 2 of them (of course, they are difficult to see)... They could be hiding in the plants, but I'm assuming the Pleco accidentally ate them! oops! lol :-) I didn't know about Cherry Shrimp until I saw one of this guy's videos! I'm going to see if I might be able to get a couple of these around here! They look so cool! :-) Oh, I live in So. California, in case you were wondering!
200 Litres it’s about 65 gallons , and you have a lil bit too much fish for that tank , your tank is about that gallons, think you get substrate and others in , that makes it even smaller, it’s ok but you have to maintain it weekly or more to be good , and as you said , it’s about space too , I don’t judge you , any keeper does what he think it works . Im from Romania 🇷🇴 . Take care
@@CarpathianWolves Oh, that's bigger than I thought! They are still pretty small... once they grow, I can thin them out a bit. ...and yes I clean it out on a weekly basis. I'm thinking about maybe making another pond, or just get another big tank. I did a video on it if you're interested in seeing it! I just started it up again... haven't had it going for a few years now! th-cam.com/video/93YTeL0zsT8/w-d-xo.html
Those goldfish of yours , I’ve watched your vid , gets huge .. they will stop grow in your tank , but their organs don’t , if you understand and they will eventually die in time from that , it’s beautiful but it’s a common mistake , watch 10 things about goldfish , that are mistaken , and other big channels , it’s ok to do mistakes but it’s even better to be informed about those animals , why to kill them , when you can enjoy them ? :D , have fun man
do other fish pick up on fish behavior? i have some corydoras with some young guppies and some danios and they all seem to be copying the corydoras eating lol. i feed them from the top with flakes but notice they scavenge around now with them since i added the corydoras
i can not get rid of tiny black water snails in my tank which is outside. I wonder if they do any harm. Recently a tiny frog has settled down on my lotus leaves, it's less than a quarter of an inch long but I am a bit afraid of it's voracious babies.
You haven’t considered at all water parameters that often are absolutely opposite from the ones of guppies . Most of the fish you listed require basically opposte water hardness and ph than guppies . I say best tankmates for guppies are other members of the poeclidae family .
My pleco killed my Guppies . I had 3 set of guppies put into the tank at different times they all died . The Neon Tetra about 10 of them are still alive. The last 3 pair all died the very next day . Pls Advice
Pleco s shouldn’t kill fish at all. It sound to me your guppies had bad genes (thanks inbreeding) and died. That’s what happened to all my guppies. Every single guppy I bought died.
For me, platies and telescopic eyes(except when breeding) were my best guppy buddies also white and yellow mollies, my mollies are huge but buddies with guppies, small koi are okay too. They've to be small. No Gouramis, oh god what a mistake that was. The neon tetras and zebras I got were aggressive, I've no Idea why. My guppies cant breed in the tank, as do the platies and mollies, they'll eat the fries. They breed a lot, I've a separate breeding tank and one as nursery. They all go along fine. I've to try the rasaboras and maybe give neon tetras another chance. no way I'm trying cherry shrimps, that's expensive food for the guppies.
Correct, gouramias are not good fish to keep with guppies. Besides getting to large for the tank potentially, they can become aggressive and if you want babies you definitely will not have any with them.
Should I get ride of my lamp eye tetras cause they pretty mean on the little guys and I just found one dead and no tail at all and I am scared (btw I have a gourami but he is the nicest thing doesn’t touch anyone)
The only one I don't agree with is the sword tail. I have had a bad experience. I bought some expensive guppy fry, about 30 of them... I came back in the room to admire my new babies. To find my sword tail s hunting them down. Only about 5 or 6of the bigger ones survived. I had not lost any fry, before adding Swords to my community tank 😭
I wouldn’t advise it because guppies usually have fancy tails and betta might think it’s another betta. Also some bettas just don’t like tank mates at all. If your looking for a tank mate for a betta or guppies I would go with a snail for a betta and probably mollies or Cory cats for guppies
Awesome video! 😀 My community tank has 6 guppies (2 males & 4 females) plus 1 male & female Mickey Mouse platties and a 1 single penguin tetra (that I inherited when I took over caring looking after them from my nephew). They are all thriving and I currently have 2 pregnant guppies and I was wondering what was best to for them as I am nervous about using a breeding tank. You have just put my mind at rest as I will put some java fern in the tank which is reasonably well planted and just let nature take its course! 👍🇬🇧
I would get a breeding net to put in the tank. I would also have six female guppies and three female platties. It’s a good ratio to have. A good rule of thumb is to keep three females to every one male because if there’s an even number of fish he has no choice to only harass those females. This is a good way to not only prevent stress but also prevent to many pregnant fish at once.
I have a blue dwarf gourami with guppies and harlequin rabrosas and have no problems Just watch the gourami before you buy him and get the less aggressive one Good luck
If their shell is a skinny spiral shape with no point it’s a rams horn. If they have a whorl at the side it’s a mystery snail. If it has a point at the end it’s a pond snail. If it has a long cone shaped shell it’s Malaysian trumped horn. Or if they have Avery round shell sometimes with horns on them it’s a nerite snail. If you have pond snails or trumpet snail get rid of them by using some blanches veggies in a water bottle with the top cut off as a trap. Or you can try aquarium snail rid products but some snails are harder to kill than other. Or you remove them by hand.
in my first aquarium i had guppies, shrimp and 5 plecos (i knew some were gonna die, one was albino) the guppies killed 4 plecos and the albino one was left. then i got dwarf gourami that were also disturbed by the guppies so i removed them into the pond where they are actually not bad there. when i removed the guppies the gouramis started to breed and now i have a LOT of babies 😊
Uhhh it was actually most likely the pleco that killed each other. Unless you saw it first hand. But male pleco will fight each other. I don’t know the size of your tank but every pleco need 30 gallons minimum
@@xXdutchieeeXx now i have 1 pleco in a 150 gallon pond with 4 goldfish, and in the aquarium im sticking with gouramis. I have 2 pairs of betta, pair of dwarfs and getting chocholate gouramis. (in 4 aquariums)
James Merryman ohhhh okay well that makes a lot of sense! So the issues I had in the past came from only having two or three gourami. I think my little buddy is doing okay on his own right now though. I recently almost all of the fish in my biggest tank so I’m very hesitant to make any changes. They only thing that seemed out of whack was a sudden increase in water hardness. I don’t know if that could kill fish but something really affected my stock....
Then why a platy killed three of my gubbies and one platy as well? Do you have any idea why would some platy or even gubbies attach each other's tails (tails of their own species or another)???
Well a good rule of thumb to keep in mind is however many inches a fish grows it should have one gallon per inch. So if a fish grows to four inches it should at as a bare minimum four gallons.

Loved this video I have mollies and guppies it is the best combination ever they are so alike and do not bother each other at all

I feed my mollies Tetra tropical flakes. Just in case you wanted a easier way of feeding them :)
Number 1 rule of fish is if its fits in in mouth it's as good as gone. Doesn't matter what species.
Some fishes might munch on the guppies fins and some fight with them

Freaking yes I love that guppy Aquarium Aquarius and Aquarius Hobby
Do you think I could have guppies patties and one black nerite snail in the same aquarium together
what about white cloud minnows? my neice gave me her lone minnow as wondering if i can keep with the male guppies.they are the same size
The only thing with white cloud minnows is they generally like cooler temperatures than guppies (68 to 72F)compared to guppies at 75 to 80F.
at last a video that i was actually looking for.

in my first aquarium i had guppies, shrimp and 5 plecos (i knew some were gonna die, one was albino) the guppies killed 4 plecos and the albino one was left. then i got dwarf gourami that were also disturbed by the guppies so i removed them into the pond where they are actually not bad there. when i removed the guppies the gouramis started to breed and now i have a LOT of babies 😊
No home tank should have 5 plecos in it, bet the bio load was nightmarish
Uhhh it was actually most likely the pleco that killed each other. Unless you saw it first hand. But male pleco will fight each other.
I don’t know the size of your tank but every pleco need 30 gallons minimum
@@xXdutchieeeXx it was 35 gallon
@@BruhImAGirl yeah so it was way to small. Like I said each pleco needs 30 gallons
@@xXdutchieeeXx now i have 1 pleco in a 150 gallon pond with 4 goldfish, and in the aquarium im sticking with gouramis.
I have 2 pairs of betta, pair of dwarfs and getting chocholate gouramis. (in 4 aquariums)
The “cardinal” tetra is a neon tetra
there's 2 different species but they do look alike a lot.
Bristlenose pleco need bigger tank than guppies, and mollys can be hit or miss cos they like salty water so can be a bit difficult for the beginner
Do balloon mollies house with guppies too
Can they live with zebra danios??
Yes they can.
Waaaaait honey gourami need a school?? I’ve been purposely keeping mine solo because I thought the males would fight 😬
James Merryman ohhhh okay well that makes a lot of sense! So the issues I had in the past came from only having two or three gourami. I think my little buddy is doing okay on his own right now though. I recently almost all of the fish in my biggest tank so I’m very hesitant to make any changes. They only thing that seemed out of whack was a sudden increase in water hardness. I don’t know if that could kill fish but something really affected my stock....
Oh well at least you found out before it was too late
My swordtail keep attacking my guppy i ofto put them in different tanks
Then why a platy killed three of my gubbies and one platy as well? Do you have any idea why would some platy or even gubbies attach each other's tails (tails of their own species or another)???
What size is your tank? They might be showing territorial behaviour.
@@confusedspoons 60 liters & i had about 13-14 fish there
Good video, however, you have WAY TOO MUCH echo in the room.
What about gold fish and neonfish
Full size tennis ball goldfish no .
But work well with small pearl scale goldfish because of Tiny mouth and slow.
Neon fish definitely yes
Can you keep german ram ciclid with guppies
No , they require totally different water parameters ,rams needs soft water snd low ph , guppies like all poecilids need harder water and higher ph .
20 gallon for corydoroas??
WOW thanks ☯️💝
Swordtail, guppies, platy in 20 gallon tank how many of each?
Well a good rule of thumb to keep in mind is however many inches a fish grows it should have one gallon per inch. So if a fish grows to four inches it should at as a bare minimum four gallons.
I had 2 sword tails with 2 guppies and one of the swordtails killed both of my guppies
I got the top 3 fishes the fish are look alike like sword tail and platy is breeding like hybrid
You forgor black neon tetras
What about white clouds
10/10
Cherry barb will be tank mate for guppies
Can betta be with guppies?
cardinal tetra loves low ph but guppy loves acidic water how they can mate
A low PH means that the PH is below 7, making it acidic not alkaline like I'm assuming you mean
I just bought my 16 gallon community tank today
Nice, what you plan on keeping in it?
@@lalshortshot2051 guppies and a few mollies and platies
I have two fancy guppies with a crayfish and they dont attack each other for whatever reason
danio is no good tank mate?
