40 ember tetra (Hyphessobrycon amandae) in densely planted aquascape

Ember tetra are rather small fish. In spite of a size of only 2.5 cm (1 in), this species is not suitable for nano aquariums. Hyphessobrycon amandae prefers living in shoals. That requires space. The red coloration varies individual and depends also on food containing carotene. This characin is named in honor of Heiko Bleher's mother Amanda.

I love the way those ember tetras school. I've got a small shoal (7) of rummy nose tetras and they stay together well in my 260 litre tank. Having seen your video, I'm tempted to buy some more. It wasn't the route I was going to take though! Now I'm confused!!!! Thanks for posting.

My pet shop only had 3 so I bought them and put them in with my cardinal tetras and gold tetras. They seem ok with their tank mates.

Of course they're suitable for nano tanks... You can still have a small shoal in a nano

+deegan murray And I know many species of fish are threatened or extinct in the wild, but that's humans fault. if we didn't destroy they're habitat, they wouldn't need to be "saved"
Johanan Micaiah
Johanan Micaiah - 8 years ago
+deegan murray In the wild they have much, much more space than in captivity. And they also have the ability to make their own choices. I wouldn't have a problem if someone kept them in a very large pond, but besides that, its basically imprisoning them. How would you like to be treated the same way? And yes, it does have to do with me being vegan, because vegans don't cause suffering to animals as much as possible

I'm a vegan now, i'm against keeping fish in tanks. If they were in a huge pond i wouldn't mind though

Lol. Its about providing the necessary needs (substrate/fertilizers/light/co2) for the plants Brandon IF you can afford it. If not your tank should stand proud right in front of the living room

I think Brandon Foresee was speaking figuratively. I think he meant that he is envious of how much better this tank looks than his own tank.
Johanan Micaiah
Johanan Micaiah - 9 years ago
If your fish are new, that's normal, but you should also have hiding places for them to feel secure, such as wood, rocks, or plants

True, you don't need to spend lots of money for clear water (just lots of water changes and a stable water chemistry), but I don't think you can get the kind of plant growth shown in the vid without CO2, good lighting and weekly dosing of ferts.

I have unfiltered planted tanks with crystal clear water - proving you don't even need a filter (don't try this if you haven't done a ton of research btw) but the plants don't look like those shown in the vid, they're a lot scragglier, wild looking, and not so bright green :)

My' water is clear like that because I use a water polisher: seachem purigen in my' filter - I also use co2 booster by api and do a weekly 40 percent water change...Oh and feed my' plants.. you can get clear water if you want you just have to stay ontop of things.  Not necessarily spend a ton of money.

CO2 injection, £100s or £1000s spent on equipment (especially lighting), good filtration, lots of time planning, aquascaping, and pruning, and water changes, water changes, water changes.
