Wow I always thought it was ruby nosed tetra.... I googled it and I was totally wrong. Yet I feel like I was more right XD Ruby nosed feels like it suits it more lol.
My favorites 3 tetra tip: Neon Tetra, Cardinal Tetra and Rummy nose Tetra👍 Tetra number one ..Also rasbora fish ..My favorites 3 rasbora tip:Harlequin Rasbora ,Espei Rasbora, Hengeli Rasbora
Silverfins, to be totally honest I have had 14 tiger barbs in a rio 125 (8 tigers and 6 albino tigers) for some 7 months and theres zero aggression, not even boisterous behaviour, and as for a pecking order I'll be blowed if I see that. However, with the silver fins in a 68 litre then I have definitely seen aggression among the two bigger males to the point of I thought they could stress one another to the point of losing them. Not seen this for a few months though but I agree silverfins can be at the very least 'boisterous'.
Good list. I would have included neons: In my experience, once you get past the first two weeks, they're little tough guys who make a great centerpiece shoal for a tank.
1. Why we have to wait one or two weeks? 2. I feel no good; seeing die one by one in my tank. 3. Banyak info tentang parameter air habitat mereka, yang bisa ditiru. 4. Tidak semua info benar adanya.
i've had a school of 15 ornate tetras for almost two years now in my heavily planted community tank. i find them to be of the perfect temperament. many schooling fish that are either too shy to ever be seen in the tank, or too out going and rarely school (fish only school when they sense danger or simply feel nervous). i've gone through probably 5 or 6 different asian and south american fish species before settling on ornate tetras not only because of their personality, but also their rather subtle colour and pattern that compliment the plants well and don't take people's attention away from beautiful aquascapes like neon/cardinal tetras do.
1-rummy nose tetra 2-bleeding heart tetra 3-green blood Finn tetra 4-candy cane tetra 5-cardinal tetra Not gonna lie silver tips are pretty awesome but in my experience I had some of them eating my plants
Nice video! I'm in love with rummy nose tetras because they school so tightly and they are very active. Plus the contrast they deliver is awesome. I have them with neons and black neons, three rams (two standard GBR and one gold), an albino bristlenose, and some cories. Really a brilliant fish.
Working on building up my NEON TETRA school, sitting on about 35 at the moment in a 60g planted, they offset well with black skirts too. Great Video guys, keep them coming.
Tetras are great and ours just swim along happily together, silver tipped tetras are quite special in that they are small, have of all the right markings and colour they remind me of a mini Buenas Aires tetra with the similar markings on their tail. Thanks
Silver Tip Tetras -- The first tetra I ever kept, way back in 19xx (that's all I'm gonna say!) I need to keep them again - go back to my roots! Only this time, not three! What Cory said about these holds true for all tetras... the more, the merrier! Get at least a dozen - two or 3 dozen would be better.
I love our Buenos Aires Tetras, they've lived really well and are nice big fish. I just got baby Congo Tetras too and those will be GORGEOUS and huge when they grow up. We've also got Black Skirt Tetras and they are pretty hardy too and about 1.5 inches long, we had white ones including some long fins but they died when the nitrates skyrocketed :( We also have had headlight tetras too and only have one survivor, they are cool once they get big because you can really see all their scales but they definitely are a very muted color.
Black Neons are great fish. I pick up a small school a while back and do not regret it. I just may have to check out the silver tips as they may be coo in my 90G. Thanks for sharing.
Sad the black phantom tetra was not mentioned, especially since they are really playful and mock fight. 😂 pretty cool to watch and as they play they never damage each other.
I want to add some variety to my south American tank especially want to try out some tetras. picked 10 black neons and 10 silver tips last weekend. now in quarantine. cant wait to put them in the main tank.
I struggled to get my Cardinal tank stable. My tap water is ridiculously hard so I ended up using peat granules and PH buffers. Been thriving for about a year now.
I'm in the process of upgrading from 10 to 20 or 30 gallon tanks. What filtration would youb recommend. I'm a senior on a limited budget,. So I'm looking for economy yet reasonable effectiveness.
My silver tips were prone to bloat easily. One had an aggressive temperament and kept all the others in the corner. Columbian Tetras are easy and look great in planted tanks.
Sweet just picked up 3 of the silver tip tetra for dither fish in my albino kribensis tank had just added the albino kribs and didn't want to over drive the bio load in my 10 gal might add 3 or 4 more soon
Is planted aquarium must for tetras? And regarding filter, top filter can be used in aquarium with tetras like neon tetras, cardinal tetras, surpae tetras, penguin tetras, red eye tetras?
Oh men. I'm planning on doing this for my next set up 30-50 gallon tank Neon/Cardinal Tetras Black Neon or Penguin Tetras Ember Tetras or Silver Tip Tetras 6 Corydoras 1 Betta 😍 Hope this could work
Pristellas shoal with Serpae tetras, it’s really neat to watch my schools join up and break up. I don’t see too much co schooling behavior from any one else though. I’m curious if this is normal behavior or if it’s a response to having too few cohorts? I have the about 10 X-Rays and 12 Serpaes. I’m looking to boost them up to about 18 each.
Hi after advise. I'm new to the aquarium thing. I have a 85l long tank. Have 2 electric blue ram 2 congo tetras 10 neon tetras. Is there room to add more and if so what would you add?
I've got 100 paracheirodon innesi, the nitrate levels are at 10 ppm, the ph is at 6.8 and the gh is at 21°, so the water's pretty hard. I've got my tank for like 2 or 3 months and I just added new tetra's a few weeks ago. One of my tetras has lost some of his skin's color, so his back has a big white spot. I'm assuming he's got neon tetra's disease. I am observing him for a while now and he doesn't show any kind of the typical neon tetra's disease's symptoms like crazy swimming patterns, seperating himself from the other fish or losing his appetite. Everything he does is normal and he looked like that for quite a while, now. What should I do? Should I take him out of the tank and put him into quarantine? That would stress him out a lot and maybe even kill him, but I don't wanna put my other fish at risk. I'm a little confused that he's still alive.
how does this setup for 55 gal aquarium sound 4 x Panda Cory (Corydoras panda) 6 x Cardinal Tetra (Paracheirodon axelrodi) 6 x Ember Tetra (Hyphessobrycon amandae) 6 x Green Neon Tetra (Paracheirodon simulans) 6 x Rummynose Tetra (Hemigrammus bleheri) 4 x Malaysian Trumpet Snail (Melanoides tuberculata) 5 x Kuhli Loach (Pangio kuhlii) 4 x Amano Shrimp (Cardina multidentata)
love tetras! my favoriite fish! i have glowlight tetras, neon tetras and columbian tetras right now, eventually want to get some cardinal tetras and maybe some black tetras.
My favorites are Congo Tetras and Dimond Tetras... love Rummynose Tetras but they didn’t seem to like me or I just got a bad batch. They didn’t last more than a couple of days in my tank. 😔
It's been a long time since I kept tetras, nice video as always Cory. I really love zebra danios in a decent sized aquarium, I find they school nicely together in decent flow and work really well as dither fish for my fancy goldfish, is there a reason why they don't get much love? Can they be aggressive with similar sized fish? Just curious really
We could have at least got a top ten for tetras, bleeding heart, rummynose, Phantom, Congo, wild green neons and so much much more. Tetras are absolutely awesome!
I have a question. I do not know whare I heard this. But is it bad for your fish to top off a tank that has been neglected for a couple months? Or should I take some water out before adding the water?
All tetras are egg layers/scatterers. Live bearers are endlers, guppies, platies, swordtails, mollies etc and there more unusual ones like trout godied, Limia species

Not goode
Rummy nose tetras are my favorite!
Wow I always thought it was ruby nosed tetra....
I googled it and I was totally wrong. Yet I feel like I was more right XD
Ruby nosed feels like it suits it more lol.
Im getting 125 gallon and plan on getting 8 of them!

I do like rummynose tetras.
Ayyyyy 69th like
I love rummeynose and ember tetras. Your number one pick of the silver tip tetras I find that they are a bit aggressive to all my other fish.

tetras are my personal favorite fish, love them so much.
who doesn't
Me too
Right there with ya
Bettas are my favorite, but tetras are my second favorite.
Same
I hit my Black Neon with a hammer... I think we should share the blame.
mythbusters!
LOL.
that depends, what size hammer did you use?
@@daltonvickersjr9441 mjolnir...

Cardinal Tetras have come up in almost every top 5 fish video it seems like. Because of you, I have 3 tanks in my house that feature them.
i LOVE ember tetras, so pretty and i love when they swim as a school, they look like a little ball of fire lol
1-rummy nose tetra
2-bleeding heart tetra
3-green blood Finn tetra
4-candy cane tetra
5-cardinal tetra

Like your choices but another awesome, often overlooked, tetra is the Lemon Tetra ...........peaceful & beautiful !!

What Cory said about these holds true for all tetras... the more, the merrier! Get at least a dozen - two or 3 dozen would be better.
Awesome video Cory, ever thought about making a video with stocking ideas for 10, 20, 30 etc... gallon tanks

Ever put Silvertip tetras with Angelfish? Can they co exist?
What are those catfish at 1:40 and how big do they get?? And are rams good tank mates??
All great fish but I have always had a thing for those silver tip tetras as well, nice number 1! Bleeding heart would prolly be my number 1 though.
Thanks for the shout out
I keep #'s 4 and 5 myself!!! Love my black neons!!!
Black Neons are great fish. I pick up a small school a while back and do not regret it. I just may have to check out the silver tips as they may be coo in my 90G. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Cory I Love Tetras too! I've got some Black Tetras and some Diamond Head Neon Tetras, both great fish types "love um" 👍🏻
Sad the black phantom tetra was not mentioned, especially since they are really playful and mock fight. 😂 pretty cool to watch and as they play they never damage each other.
I want to add some variety to my south American tank especially want to try out some tetras. picked 10 black neons and 10 silver tips last weekend. now in quarantine. cant wait to put them in the main tank.
Hey Cory & jimmy. What catfish was that on the sponge filter in the cardinal tetra tank?
MK films looks like synodontis petrocola catfish. Wrong spelling I’m sure haha
MK films baby Cuckoo catfish maybe?
Kinda looked like an upside down catfish
Thanks for the tip about the silvertip
I love watching your videos . Thanks Cory .
I also love silvertip tetras, they're an amazing school fish.
Red phantom tetra is my favorite!! It's great for a planted tank!!
I struggled to get my Cardinal tank stable. My tap water is ridiculously hard so I ended up using peat granules and PH buffers. Been thriving for about a year now.
I have 15cardinal tetra in my planted tank..they look so good and stunning!! the neon blue lining looks like glow in thr dark 😅
I'm in the process of upgrading from 10 to 20 or 30 gallon tanks. What filtration would youb recommend. I'm a senior on a limited budget,. So I'm looking for economy yet reasonable effectiveness.
What catfish looking fish is in the tank with the cardinal tetras
I met you at the Aquatic Expo! I was the kid who you gave the shirt to! The one that you drew the taco on and wrote #FishFam.
My #1 are congo tetras I plan getting a 125 and adding about 25 of them they are just so beautiful!!!
My silver tips were prone to bloat easily. One had an aggressive temperament and kept all the others in the corner. Columbian Tetras are easy and look great in planted tanks.
Sweet just picked up 3 of the silver tip tetra for dither fish in my albino kribensis tank had just added the albino kribs and didn't want to over drive the bio load in my 10 gal might add 3 or 4 more soon
Lovely, silver tips are new to me. Is that a petricolos catfish with the cardinals!?
I keep 4, with tetras.
I have to go with the green neon as my favorite, especially for a planted aquarium. Rummy nose tetra is my number two-no.
Is planted aquarium must for tetras? And regarding filter, top filter can be used in aquarium with tetras like neon tetras, cardinal tetras, surpae tetras, penguin tetras, red eye tetras?
Oh men. I'm planning on doing this for my next set up
30-50 gallon tank
Neon/Cardinal Tetras
Black Neon or Penguin Tetras
Ember Tetras or Silver Tip Tetras
6 Corydoras
1 Betta 😍
Hope this could work
Definitely do cardinals and black neons. Itll be such a cool tank
@@benbarnett5684 I'll think about it. 😊
My favorite tetras are the white blushing tetras and the black skirts ☺️
Pristellas shoal with Serpae tetras, it’s really neat to watch my schools join up and break up. I don’t see too much co schooling behavior from any one else though. I’m curious if this is normal behavior or if it’s a response to having too few cohorts? I have the about 10 X-Rays and 12 Serpaes. I’m looking to boost them up to about 18 each.
Great video! You inspired me to start seeking out tetras :)
Hi after advise. I'm new to the aquarium thing. I have a 85l long tank. Have 2 electric blue ram 2 congo tetras 10 neon tetras. Is there room to add more and if so what would you add?

Firehead Tetra's are pretty awesome too.
Silvertips are the tightest schooling tetra I have seen. Inspired choice!!!
Rummy nose are the best tight schooler for me
Try Rummy Nose ..... they're even better at schooling .....
One fish I can't find much info about is the Inpaichthys Kerri Super Blue. Are they new to the hobby or something?
Right now, I have Neon and Glowlight Tetras, both of which are personal favorites. I really want some Black Neon Tetras.
Hi cory can u please tell me if there are more species of peaceful fish that will follow like the silver tip tetra? Small ones please, thank you
Would all these tetra live together in the same tank? Just curious
I love neon tetras and black tetras to my amazement They do fine with bigger fish..... well at least with my experiences
Love this series😍
Haven’t seen the black neons in my store. Hopefully some day 🙏🏻
They should carry them, they are super hardy!
how does this setup for 55 gal aquarium sound
4 x Panda Cory (Corydoras panda)
6 x Cardinal Tetra (Paracheirodon axelrodi)
6 x Ember Tetra (Hyphessobrycon amandae)
6 x Green Neon Tetra (Paracheirodon simulans)
6 x Rummynose Tetra (Hemigrammus bleheri)

My personal favorite kind of Tetra is the Red Minor Serpae, i have 5 of them, i love them.
Which would be the best with a dwarf gouramie?
What type of pleco is that on the sponge in the cardnal tetra tank?
How many neon tetras should you recommend for 20 gallon tank
Just got a school of 13 red neon tetra any advise on environment and maintaining these guys thnkz
My favorites are Congo Tetras and Dimond Tetras... love Rummynose Tetras but they didn’t seem to like me or I just got a bad batch. They didn’t last more than a couple of days in my tank. 😔
What about tank sizes? How many fish per tank
It's been a long time since I kept tetras, nice video as always Cory.
I really love zebra danios in a decent sized aquarium, I find they school nicely together in decent flow and work really well as dither fish for my fancy goldfish, is there a reason why they don't get much love? Can they be aggressive with similar sized fish? Just curious really
+matthew smith yeah they can be a bit Aggressive sometimes
Aww, wishing you said Congo tetra... I know you were doing smaller fish but man those guys are beautiful looking
JTech I agree
I love Congos! I have 12 in my 40 right now, along with a few random tetras that i got from family that didnt want them anymore
I was hoping for them too!
I really enjoy these. I would love to see a barb one though.
I picked up dolphin tetras at petsmart in ontario canada. They are new tp the store and look kool. I tried to post a pic but couldn't
I love your videos so much man keep them up!!!!! How do you feel about green terrors I love them?
Will cardinal tetras school with regular red/blue neons?
We could have at least got a top ten for tetras, bleeding heart, rummynose, Phantom, Congo, wild green neons and so much much more. Tetras are absolutely awesome!
Great video Cory
I have a question. I do not know whare I heard this. But is it bad for your fish to top off a tank that has been neglected for a couple months? Or should I take some water out before adding the water?
+Jane Abel changing some water is usually best instead of topping off
Love these top 5 videos
Love neons!
Melissa Berry Me too~
Silver tips are fin nippers. You should mention that
My favorite fish groups are knifefish and catfish I would love it if you do vids on them.
rommy nose and silver tip for me!! nice video
Because of you I have a aquarium
I love all Tetras especially Congo Tetras
I love this channel
How many Cardinals would you recommend on a newly established 125. Lightly planted at the moment
About 20 since it's newly established.
Thanks, so like 20 in the beginning. Then another 20-30 in a couple months.
My 3 Favorite Tetras are Congo Tetras, Lemon Tetras, and Red/Blue Colombian Tetra
Yes, at last, someone wise who's mentioned Lemon tetras ...!!
I love diamond tetras
Congo tetras are my favorite but I really like slivertips as well
What is that albino fish at 0:53
Great video, have a few of them,
Why not to buy the silver tip tetra? Cuz I don't know if it has ich or not :D
Are any of these tetras live bearing?
All tetras are egg layers/scatterers. Live bearers are endlers, guppies, platies, swordtails, mollies etc and there more unusual ones like trout godied, Limia species
Top 5 Tanganyikan, Victorian, and Malawi chiclids or other Fish. One video of each!
Are neon tetras and cardinal tetras shoaling fish or schooling fish?
they are considered schooling.
I quite like Glowlight Tetras.
Can i put all them in same tank
I have 20 of the pristella tetras . They are very Hardy .
Congo and diamond are also awesome.
Black neons are severely underrated if you ask me
Hey is it ok to use stress coat fish and water conditioner for a turtle tank
+dumpster diver 420 stress coat is a water conditioner.
Aquarium Co-Op ok
You're amazing dude
