    Rama is amazing. He talks to the things he knows, but admits to not knowing everything so he is not condescending and never takes the superior talk down position. Just an amazing fish keeper doing the hobby good. We need more Rama's in the hobby to make it better and more enjoyable for all of us. I'm not sure why that bald guy kept butting in, but I guess it is OK since it IS his channel lol. Great clip John. Love the content as always.

    • @kristinehansen.
      @kristinehansen. 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Some puffer can only be kept alone and some do fine with most community fish. Mbu puffers like in the video mostly do fine with fish that don't bother it. But it also depends a lot on the individual puffer. Puffers may eat any fish it wants. You never know.

    John and Lisa, thanks for the great video! I got a quick unrelated question. I am thinking in investing in a 535 black arowana tank with 2-3 motoro stingrays. For filtration I was going to copy Cory's 800g aquarium sump setup. I was wondering if you recommend discus for that a tank that size with the ray and arow? If you do, how many discus do you think I could do? Thank you for all your great vids!

    I have a Betta question. I've recently taken on a friend's established tank and would love to add a male Betta but I wanted to check whether it would be OK to do so with the fish that I already have. Its a 100l tank containing 2 rosy barbs, 1 chinese algae eater, 1 clown loach, a few tetras and minnows and a really peaceful opaline Gourami. There's no conflicts at all between any of them but will a male Betta upset the balance?

    • @Shadowwing1994
      @Shadowwing1994 ปีที่แล้ว

      I know this is a year old, but just in case someone else has a similar question. You usually have to worry about other fish bullying your Betta than the other way around. Barbs are fin nippers and will nip at the Betta fins and harm them so they're not good tank mates for them. They need a similar sized tank buddy that won't hurt their flowy fins.
