Great looking fish.and nice-looking tank
Great vid 👍
well youtube does it again I bought 6 of these today without breathing a word of it to anyone didn't look them up on the phone didn't even take the phone with me then your video shows up in my stream tonight. The strain was developed in Thailand I think but oddly enough this is the first time in 5 years I saw them for sale here in Chiangmai.
I’ve got just one looking to get more. Nice content
just subscribed, love the electric blues. all looking good, keep up the good work
Awesome, thank you!
Just got my first. Wonderful fish.
one of my fav fish. mine is a real character and although he shows aggression to my ceramic flowerpots he coexists peacefully with all is tankmates and even got bullied by a rainbowfish i used to have
They seem to find a way don’t they , fitting in most tank setups and with most other species perfectly.
So true !! They all have there own personality
I added 3 to my barb community tank with tiger barbs, rosy bards and glo tetras. They adjusted quickly and are doing great.
Your info is spot-on mate. I agree the Texas is well behaved with others I had same experience.
Appreciate it mate , yea for sure in the right setup they are fine and this guys been great 👍🏻
People love them more for their Temperament than their Colours, Just amazing fish. Can hold its own with Oscars or even Guppies!!!. Awesome Fish
Very versatile species , like you say just as happy with community fish or any other cichlid
i used to have guppys until i bought 4 electric blue acaras, now i dont have any guppys.
I have one who is buddies with a platy. They hang out night and day!
Nice" video bro...💯 beautiful fish and fun to own and have in an aquarium...💯%👍 I, had to subscribe..👍
Thanks for the sub! Appreciated, they are great fish indeed 👍🏻
Love this fish I have had a few
Fantastic fish for sure
You real like they are so common....I have to order them and get them shipped over 1500 miles.....
Great channel brother how is your Texas it's stunning is it aggressive
Thank you mate appreciate it , he’s great , very chilled and calm.
I’ve never seen him show any aggression , he just drifts round the tank looking for food 😂
Some Texas are like the devil 👿
Im lucky with this one 👍🏻
@@aquaticswithandy8628 I have a baby one at the moment hopefully he grows up to be a gentle giant
Nice hopefully mate
How big is your tank? Nice set up and beautiful fish.
Hi , it’s a 5x2x2.5 with 200 litre sump , thanks appreciate it
I like this colour morph but I still prefer the original Blue Acara over the electric variety (if you can still find it anywhere these days!)
I can understand that , Ive had them in the past and they are equally stunning fish , like you say not so common now as they were 👍🏻
Electric blue beautiful fish , very nice aquarium, sub for you, hello welccome to yt👌👌👌
Amazing fish , Appreciate it thanks
I LOVE those Blue Acaras is a 29 gal tank ok to keep 2 of them in?
Thanks they are an amazing fish , It would be fine to start them off in , once there a little bigger a 40 would be perfect for 2
Great content! Can i please get your opinion on my 55g setup. Currently I have a full grown colony of 12 albino corydoras, 1 adult red eye tetra, and 1 recently purchased EBA. in a planted tank. Right now everyone gets along great.
My question is would a breeding pair be ok in a 55 with all those corydoras?
I was contemplating buying more EBA's from tbe same shop/ same size in hopes 2 will pair off, and rehome the other EBA's.
Thank you in advance!!! Subbed for future content!!😎
Hi thanks for the great feedback , like most cichlids EBAs get very aggressive and territorial when paired up and guarding eggs/fry , this isn’t always a problem if there is plenty of space for other fish to avoid them and they are tough hardly fish , large cichlids ect , with a 55 potentially they may class the whole tank as the area that needs protecting and therefore damage your corydoras.
It sounds like everyone is getting on well and you have a good thing going on , you may ruin that balance once 2 of them pair up but that won’t be until there are probably about 4 inches in size , i would add the EBAs , wait a year or so until you start to see a pair forming then give them a tank of there own , doesn’t have to be big , but just them and a small sponge filter would be enough , hope that helps
@@aquaticswithandy8628 I just added 3 slightly smaller EBA's. The one I have had for the past month is being aggressive to all 3 smaller newcomers. Do you think this will settle down in time?
Such a Beautiful tank! I love these fish there are videos saying one can live in a 40 gallon while other videos say nothing smaller than a 55 gallon. What is your recommendation on tank size required for a full grown electric blue Acara. Thanks
Hi Lee thanks , it’s a tough one cos given time they do grown to a fairly good size like 6 inch for example and you don’t want them to fee crowded so bigger is always better , saying that they don’t grow to fast so you couldn’t defiantly start a few in a 40 for a while with no problems and maybe look for a group in a 75 more long term 👍🏻
@@aquaticswithandy8628 This advice sounds very reasonable Thanks for your reply I'm always learning
👍🏻👍🏻
I had acara. They are the most difficult fish to keep. They are problem eaters. I could not get mine to eat anything. They die so easily
Will EBA's generally speaking get along with Angels & parrot cichlids?
Hi Linda , yea EBA can get alone fine with angelfish as long as you don t have a breeding pair , EBA get very aggressive when egg laying and they are a bit too boisterous and bulky for the more delicate angelfish so just be careful , as for parrots I have never had them together but EBAs are generally good with all but the largest and aggressive cichlids
Thanks, You can me a video about difference sexual, please!
My acara turned out to be killer. It finished one of another acara. Also becomes very aggressive during feeding time
I suppose you always get that fish once in a while , it’s certainly happened to me too , for me it was a very mean oscar
Where do you all buy these? I never see them local :(
Hi mate , I’m in Essex and most fish shops round here have them , are you in the uk ?
@@aquaticswithandy8628 No Sir in the States in Kentucky (think Bourbon 🥃 and horses 🐎) I managed to get a Striped Raphael Catfish today which is rare to my area. When I see a tank with the Acara name on it it’s always empty… and big box stores don’t really carry many showcase fish
Ah right haha yea I can picture it lol 😂
Wow it’s mad how they are uncommon when they are everywhere here , but then I’m sure you can get species we struggle to or rarely see here 👍🏻
You can order online at Imperial tropicals
Did I see a tiger in there?
I have 2 tiger Oscar’s in there yep 👍🏻
I got American electric blue acara with African electric blue johanii together in one tank, and unfortunately, my American blue acara got killed by African Johanii -- it keeps chasing and bite American blue acara even though it is much smaller than acara. I had to remove the African johanii last week and gave it back to the store.
Never mix American chilcids with africans your asking for it
