This is the ultimate list of some of my personal favorite and best bottom dwellers that you can possibly have roaming around in your tank. These are all awesome creatures and you cant go wrong with any of them. Go out and buy some for your tanks!! - ภาพยนตร์และแอนิเมชัน
Crayfish "lobsters" will kill your slow fishes ... You have been warned
Jadoe Hustles same thing happened to me
Yes they just ate mine lol
Lol
The weak should fear the crayfish
Yup little bastards lol
The tank looks fantastic. The blue and red and white ghost gray fish are awesome. Love how you show the individual fish during your very informative description. Thank you very much for this awesome video. 👍⭐️😀
Thanks and no problem.
Love this tank dude the stocking and decor is really nice.
Really enjoyed your very informative video. Was great how you showed picture of every fish you described. The tank looks fantastic.
Thanks!
i was litterally looking for a bottom feeder to put with my cichlids and u just solved my mystery thanks good video keep up the good work
Awesome, thats the goal with these vids, glad you like it!!
Nice top 10. the pictus are also one of my favourites👍
Thanks, love the pictus cats.
Wow! Your tank looks awesome 😍 👍 ☺
Thanks!!
Nice information on bottom dwellers. Thanks
No problem
Nice tank. Video would have been a lot cooler if it featured the fish. Not complaining, just an observation from a viewer.
My favorite bottoms are the bristle nose plecos they turn out looking really cool and don't get to big like the other plecos just around 6 inches
They are great I have kept a few over the years.
I was set on dojo loach but now cant keep em bc they r scaleless. Had pepper corries before so not looking for them. Shrimps have my interest(the blue, red types) but i think my gouramis might eat them :(
I kinda dont want corries again but bottom is going to be barren once my ADF is gone (have to get rid of him)
Informative video ! Helped see what's out there :)
For a scale less fish, dojo loaches are pretty dang hardy, you should be able to keep them no problem.
I kept a Synodontis Eupterus (Featherfin Cat) for 15 years! So hardy. Smaller fish occasionally disappear through the night though... not tetra or guppy compatible! Congo tetras are fine though.

That was great. Thank you.
No problem!
Nice setup in your tank man I need help with mine when it comes to decorating I’m horrible
Thanks, not that hard to scape you just need to know what type of look you are trying to accomplish and buy the stuff that will look good.
Eagle Aquatics well I live in the south but don’t have any ways to get a design started I only got a flower pot right now trying to figure out a design
I like the natural look of lava rocks, they cook great and you can get them in a lot of different colors and are easy to scape with. I bought all mine at petco, they are relatively cheap. Natural looking fake plants look good to and are very easy.
Eagle Aquatics yeah I got a severum so I fear he will eat my plants if I went the live plant route
Yah he probably will eat your plants. if they are fake though you dont need to worry.
The pleco thing is true when I wasn’t good at fishkeeping I bought the common pleco and know he is 16 inches long in a 125 with my pair of 7-8 inch Oscar’s and 5 Silver Dollars.
Yep thats what happens.
Had a crayfish in my tank once upon a time. It was psychotic, it killed all my fish, he would get them overnight. I'd wake up to a fish head in my tank, it'd leave the heads as trophies, that jerk.
Yep its best to keep those guys with large fish or by themselves.
😂😂😂 🦞💀
In their natural habitat crayfish feed at night.
What fish did you have and what type of tank did you have.
@@blackpanther1013 I believe it was in a tank full of mollies. It was probably ten years ago and so many fish and tanks ago. But it was a smaller one ...maybe 20
Love your videos very informative.
Can you do a video of top 10 fishes to keep with Oscars? Please ☺
Sure it will be a couple weeks but I will get one out for you.
Eagle Aquatics thanks I'm looking forward to it 😆
Oscars are very hard to have tank mates unless you put the same size fish with it or get fish that can
hold it's own with them cause they are carnivores & don't like anything other than them or another oscar
with them including plants.
I didn’t give my pictus a hiding spot and it was really active and did fine
I love corys.. but I'd recommend no less than 3.. but 6 or more is best for them
I have 10
I have 10
Hello, brilliant video mate. Thanks for the info. What's the minimum tank size for a Rope fish and do you have to have them as pairs? Thanks
You dont have to have them in pairs, In my opinion I would say minimum of 40 gallons.
Thanks for the response. You've gained a Sub. I've heard Rope Fish are excellent escapees. How could you possibly clean a tank and avoid them jumping out? Thanks
Glass hoods or a tight canopy would work, they are indeed great escape artists, but they are so cool.
Thanks mate, youve gained a sub
Any bottom dweller you would recommend for a 55 gal with tiger barbs
Any on this list.
Ghost crayfish is a mix color, the white one is just white crayfish
Your electric blue acara caught my eye lol
Beuty of a fish.
They actually squeak under water to while swimming
Crayfish are awesome..I agree
The Flying Fox is probably one of the best scavengers for medium to large size tanks. They are very active and (I think) one of the only species that will eat the hair algae off plants and ornaments, they are aggressive with each other though, so just one per tank, or if you have a large tank get a school of them, but don't put them together as pairs.
They are great fish!
Hey man looking for a bigger bottom dweller, I have a 200 gal and need some suggestions to keep my sand clean
Honestly I love catfish so i would get a bunch of different species of smaller cats and have them all on the bottom, loaches are also great.
Whats that plant on the top (2nd) left called?
Dont have any real ones in there, they are all plants you can buy at petsmart.
Thank you
Good but for the cory doras it shold be 6 or moore these are schooling fish and are in colinies of thousands naturaly and feel more safer when there are more
Great!
Hi, Eagle Aquatics is that a shark which swims up from behind the cave at 5:39 or what fish is that ??
That is a glass catfish, A fully grown one.
Thanks man
Hey, stupid question probably, but could i keep a crayfish in a turtle tank? I'm looking for something unique that will be able to put up with the turtles, and stand its ground if need be. I have 2 musk turtles and 1 map turtle, around 3-4 inches each, thanks.
You might be able to actually, I would get a big crawfish though. I'm not sure if turtles eat crayfish though, because they might. I'd do some research on that.
@@EagleAquatics yeah i'll compare the sizes of the crawfish to the turtles because the thing is the musk turtles are slow and clunky, and my small map turtle is nimble but small so i doubt he could hurt it.
@@EagleAquatics Just checked an electric blue is 5-6 inches, so i think it'll actually work out with my turtles. Thanks for the help.
I used to have one of those, they are awesome!!
I had two crawdads Jeff and Goofy. Jeff tried eating my black and white catfish and our gold fish
I really want some loaches but I have 3 goldfish so I'll just have to wait some years
If you heat your water you can put laches in with your goldfish
My crayfish just passed away..i had him for 3 years... what is the normal life spand because i didn't do anything different to the tank?
He could have very well lived a full life I think they can live for anywhere from 3 to 8 years.
What's that yellow coloured bottom feeder at the left side of the tank in 4:10 ?
That is a albino siamese algae eater.
Eagle Aquatics Ah thank you. Bought the same fish thinking it was a loach fish 😂
What was number 10? I didn't catch the name. Great video!
Number 10 were cory catfish.
Eagle Aquatics Awesome, thanks!
That gourami is thicc
I think my favorite fish out of all of these is the "Title Text Here." 16:15
I have a tank full of them!
Awesome tank
Awesome tank...
Very informative regarding the bottom dwellers..
I have a 20 gallon with 3 rosy barbs, 2 neons, 2 tetras, 1 black tuxedo Platty and a Chinese algae eater (that’s what it was labeled as in the pet store)..
I have live plants and some driftwood in there too..I’ve always wanted to get the shrimp..is that possible for what I’ve described? Also..how often should I clean my tank..? I typically do a 50% reduction and I pull everyone out including the plants and scrub the glass with an aquarium scrubber and rinse the plants ..clean the filter completely and change the filter bag about every three months.. I keep an eye on it daily and the water is clear and I turn the light on during the day and turn it off at night.. please let me know your thoughts..
With the fish you have in there you can definitely put shrimp in there, those fish wont bother shrimp. I would highly recommend Amano shrimp, I have kept them and they are awesome and also a little bigger species, also bee shrimp are cool to, but you can also do the other species as well. Freshwater tanks can go a while without water changes but it depends on the filtration, If you have a hang on back filter, you should clean the pads off at least one a week and maybe a water change every 2 to 3 weeks. If you have more high grade filtration like a sump or canister you can get away with once a month like I do on the 125g. You are doing everything right so keep it up.
Eagle Aquatics thank you sooo much for your response.. I do have a hang on the back filter and that's good to know about finding the pads off (thank you) and I'll do a water change as you indicated.. I'll be looking into the shrimp you recommended.. Thank you again.
Not a problem at all, good luck!!
what are those fish that look kinda like a bala shark with black on their tails?
Those are Filament barbs
Eagle Aquatics how big do they get?
What is the size and stock of the tank in the video?
That is a 125 gallon aquarium with a 20 gallon sump
This tank looks amazing, but I personally think it is overcrowded. There is also a fish that is struggling to fight the current.
They liked the current, you can overstock freshwater aquariums, freshwater fish are bulletproof.
which is the best one for a single Betta fish?
Algae eaters or small catfish
Cory catfish are so cute! 😍😍 I have 4 :)
Is Cory ok with goldfish?!
My dads friend has a 6 inch long crayfish electric blue crayfish
They are awesome creatures to keep.
What about triops ??
The exact same dynamic since the dawn of evolution.. Its fascinating isn't it.. As soon as you've had your fill remember to get lost or the symbiote will tear you to pieces...
Say whaaaaaat???
@@EagleAquatics bottom feeders get killed by symbiotes...the same way the fishes teeth get cleaned by little fish...when youve had your fill off ass...get lost..or something will eat you...
@@troyhayder6986 Deep thoughts
@@EagleAquatics same thing with multi nats... And big corpo...
I have two green cory Catfish they are great I had 5 fish in my tank the all died except For them two Idk why they all died but Them Cory Cats Are strong
Couldn't tell you man, just be sure your tank is cycled and you have proper filtration and heating.
They belong in groups of 6 or more with a 20 gallon minimum u killed em
@@darksbacon5856 the cory cats are still alive
Is it ok if I make a video similar to this
Yah sure, just come up with some other fish, no sense in creating a list with the same fish.
I loved having the crayfish ...but they would eat some of my smaller fish, i seen it, and they are escape artists, cool tho.
Yes indeed..
@@EagleAquatics i ended up having to cover up open spots by my filter and air tube with duct tape cause they'd crawl out...i found my red one on the floor one morning thank god i found him before the cat
@@heatto162 I never have that problem my crayfish never escape. What exactly is your tank setup?
Can you keep 3 corys with 5 neon tetras in a ten gallon?
Yes you can for sure
@@EagleAquatics cool, i recently bought sand, so i'll get the corys next week, but im getting 5 guppies instead, would that be okay?
Oh yah they are just as good and dont get big, they will get along with the corys
What about the Spotted Hoplo Catfish
That is a good one too.
whats your substrate called
That is national geographic black gravel. Only sold at petsmart. My favorite gravel of all time.
My Cory swims up too too lol albino Cory
beautiful Gourami there
Thanks!
cool about the pictus cats is that they will shock you
carol gena you mean sting
Great fish
are you talking US gallons or Imperial gallons?
US gallons
I have an 1.5 inch synodontis lucipinnis in my 29 gallon.
Those are great catfish to keep and they grow relatively quick.
Eagle Aquatics not mine. I got him 8 months ago and he is about the same size he was when i got him.
Huh, feed him a ton haha.
Eagle Aquatics I do he just badly grows.
Syno catfish look like a hybrid of a cory and pleco.
Cool isnt he
Cory cats are definitely not "always cheap" for example orange lazer corys!
Yah special grade ones get pricey.
Will goldfish eat shrimp?
Doubt it
My crayfish has his own tank now, He was segregated for killing 🐠 fish. He would stand up on the top of his rock side just waiting for someone stupid to swim by. No matter how much I fed him he always preferred to go hunting
Oh yeah that's how they are.
The key is to never put anything in with him you are afraid to lose
Loaches are cool...if you have snails in you tank though ...they will eat them all
True that!!
Some Loaches...not all.
No gunna lie everyone keeps saying you can’t keep multiple crayfish tougher but I’ve kept 2 red crayfish in the same tank for over 4 years without anyone problems except some minor disputes on the rare occasions they see each other
True that
I like bullhead catfish
Great fish
Its the only catfish in finland too
I used have crayfish, I fed it daily just to realize it started to eat my fish and my plants.....thts why I stop having crayfish
Yo yo loaches do a good job
Hands down some of the best bottom feeders!!
👍👍
Lmao I had a cray fish he got lose in my house ain’t know where he is :D
Ive had that happen a few times lol
@@EagleAquatics you guys need help. my crayfish never escaped from the tank they don't even try crayfish only escape if you make it easy for them what type of tank set ups do you guys have.
I loooooove oto cats!!!!!!!
Same here.
your tank looks a little bot crowded
Yah at the time there was a good amount of fish in there, but they always did well.
Leviticus 11:9 These shall ye eat of all that are in the waters: whatsoever hath fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, them shall ye eat.
Leviticus 11:10 And all that have not fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of any living thing which is in the waters, they shall be an abomination unto you:
You hath written art
I had a bad experience with a crayfish very destructive and aggressive, ended up throwing it in the yard
Well that is no good.

Cory catfish
