    Thanks for all the comments everyone - this is the first video that I tried to narrate or dub over, so my bad that the music is too loud, i'll get some better headphones to mix the sound next video!

    Man these are all expensive. I saw a beta in a petstore for $20 and thought that was a bit much.

    • @sarab3888
      @sarab3888 7 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      I bought the $4 one myself that's the cheapest by me, but the $20 must have been a special breed or something. Still special or not it's ridiculous.

      Sara B yes some are wondrous so some are that expensive I have one I saved for it was around $20. its one of the most beautiful fish I've ever seen. so I saved for it and put it in the back of the shelf so no one would see it and buy it. so I got and and in amazing condition in a 10 gal.

    I'm a qualified fish farmer and have been an aquarist for nearly 50 years. I managed a large aquatic store in the South West of England for some years and we were lucky enough to have a Scleropages. It had to be chipped to comply with CITES laws and cost us a fortune. Amazing animal, joy to behold.

This fish I was questioning made me think... is it possible to breed Tangs and create hybrids? Like for instance a Yellow Tang with a Gem Tang to create something in the middle of the two? (Just throwing out as an example :P)

  • @NumeMoon
    @NumeMoon 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Fish remind me of birds. Seeing them in aquariums reminds me of one time I was at a pet shop and I saw an angelfish who had a large flap of its skin separated from its body. It was floating underwater in one spot, and it was explained to me that it had ripped open its side by swimming against a rock, and it was in shock. I can't even keep a goldfish alive, so I'm decidedly not a person who should own fish, but seeing them in tanks always reminds me of that angelfish. I wish I could unsee it. They're so pretty!

  • @chapeyforpf1471
    @chapeyforpf1471 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    hi everyone. just fyi, the last fish is named in asia the dragon fish. if you are looking to buy one of those in asia, depending on the size, price start at 40$ for small specimen (~10cm). the most expensive one i have seen cost 400$ (~70cm). it is an expenssive fish but not that expensive, at least in asia ^^. finally before buying one of those you must be really carefull as you cannot put other fish in the tank, except if you a massive one.

    What are your recommendations for a reef tank with no fish going over $50 in price? It's a 75 gallon tank and as of right now I have a pair of classic clowns and an anemone and a bunch of basic corals on the way. What else do you recommend for tank mates? I'm looking for colorful, compatible, and iconic fish. I am inclined to order a cube boxfish.

    • @ReefBuildersVideo
      @ReefBuildersVideo  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I don't think the cube boxfish is a good choice for MOST tanks, unless you really know what you are doing. Some hardy affordable fish include royal gramma, firefish, many different species of gobies, some smaller species of damselfishes and cardinalfish.

    I love all these beautiful fish especially the fresh water sting ray I really appreciate the ocean and the life that lives in their on that note I am not one who believes in taking something out of its natural habitat unless it's a breed which is becoming extinct then I believe that it's good to step in and try to grow more and put them back to their original habitat so we can save our loved ocean and the beautiful creatures that not only balance it but take care of it each fish plant they all have a special place which is like a job that literally keeps our oceans alive and healthy I love them all and respect them for all they do THE WORLD CAN'T BE WITH OUT A WORKING OCEAN ❤❤
