absolutely beautiful tank and fish! proof you don't have to spend a ton of money to have a awesome tank! currently i have school of (neon) tetras, pair pea puffers, Bumble bee catfish and pair of albino bushynose placos. all living great together in 10 gal micro fish, amazon style, and planted tank. also about 30 ghost shrimp, but puffers do hunt and take out ghost shrimp often. the india- china.. pea puffers don't fin nip or bother the other fish at all! will internet research care and compatibility, and add a few more species in future.
Daniel R
Daniel R - 7 years ago
Reply to Badda boom..  I am aware that you usually don't want to keep a pair of fish, however that can also depend on the species.  Anyway the local pet shop only had two pea puffers at the time, I planned to get more. Lately I have returned the pea puffers to the pet shop as I got tired of them refusing all food except snails, I had a 2nd tank just for breeding / raising snails.  the pea puffers would eat ghost shrimp, but once I offered snails.. they refused all other foods!  the pea puffers did double in size and length in the time I had them.  I plan to get  larger, better looking, less picky feeding type puffer or triggerfish in the future when I set up a saltwater tank.  I was raised in a house with 22 aquariums, I have also keep everything from amphibians, turtles, fish living near a lake as a child. to 10 ft nurse sharks in lagoon as I grew up in Fla. keys. also in Fla. I have kept everything from black widow spiders to legally owning cobras, rattlers, and tree vipers.. which I never had a problem with being pro trained and licensed. , but I no longer do venomous.  now just doing fish -  so I'm not a novice.. LoL!  but I do greatly like your comment and input as many younger people may not know about normally not keeping fish in pairs.  as far as the placos they are a male and female pair.. and that's fine for bushy-nose placos, two males would fight! and I don't want to put more than two in there since it's only a ten gallon and, you have to watch bio-load. all my fish are doing and growing great! and I check and do 30%water changes weekly.  Happy fish keeping to everyone!  and lets keep researching and sharing all fish info we find.. that's  how we become better keepers!!

never keep pairs of fish, it would be better if you had 1 or 3 or more of each species
Daniel R

Reply to Eric Duong - as well as for anyone else.. Sorry this is a long reply!! wanted to give lots of info to help out other puffer keepers.. about Indian pea puffers and slightly larger amazon puffers >great things about them.. 1 they can live all their lives in fresh water!! actually their are 29 species of completely freshwater puffers. 2 in the wild both species may travel in groups! so you can keep them together- provided enough plants and furnishings in the tank. 3 both are rarely aggressive to other fish ( unlike larger puffer species!! ) they usually do fine in a balanced community tank. they rarely if ever fin nip!! my pea puffers have had a thousand chances to fin nip and just do not!! if anything they are shy of other fish. last nite one of my pea puffs was sleeping next to a week old mosquito fish.. does that tell everyone anything! 4 because of their small size they don't have to eat much to stay alive. 5 they don't bite through snail shells but pull out bits of snail meat. and they have thin teeth that easily wear down ( so they don't have to have snails or crawfish!! - and you never have to trim their teeth!! ) 6 like all puffers.. they are very alert! cute, and interesting to watch!! my peas used to attack and eat live ghost shrimp!! and i had some success with (very fresh) dead ones suspended inch from the substrate by thin wire through the shrimp. removed from tank after feeding!! since i started a 2nd tank for pond and ramshorn snail breeding.. my puffs totally ignore the shrimp!! ( great tip for shrimp keepers!! ) and only go after snails and very rarely eat thawed blood worms.. mostly works if a shrimp or fish takes a worm and makes it move and appear alive. i am trying to find a local reliable source for live blood worms! >>>now the bad news<<< first of all let me make it very clear!!! 90% of the time pea puffers want live food only!!! and they can even be picky about the size of the live food.!!! mini puffs are not the attack-- eat anything fish.. that larger puffers are!!! peas are picky eaters!!! secondly.. pea puffers don't care about what's going on outside their tanks, unlike bigger puffers.. they don't get excited to see you, beg for food, eat out of your hands. and you don't play with them as some people can bigger puffers. they are not as fun and interactive as bigger puffer species!!! but.. they don't need brackish water, or teeth trimming!! Challenging!! mostly peaceful, cute and interesting.. is how i would describe pea puffers. but if you want a puffer that is easy to feed, and interacts with you go with a bigger species!!! if you can live without them interacting with you, and are up to the Challenge!!! Micro puffs are cute and rewarding!!! important note.. >>> all puffers are individuals!!! and how one acts, or feeds, may be 100% different then what others do<<< please comment if you have further info,, or liked my essay,, ha ha!! ...happy fish keeping to everyone!!!
Eric Duong

I kept my pea puffer with neon tetras, guppies and ghost shrimp too. For some reason my puffer never ate any ghost shrimp or nipped any fins. I even had a betta fish with the puffer and he avoided him most of the time, i eventually moved the betta to an aquarium at my school. The puffer eats well and gorges himself on live snails and frozen blood worms. Is it just my puffers personality?

Hola Eduardo, obtener crías del Paracheirodon axelrodi es bien difícil en cautiverio, en ocasiones llegan a desovar en los acuarios, pero los otros peces se llegan a comer los huevos rápidamente, por lo que pocas veces se logra reproducirlos http://planetacuario.net/index.php/areas/acuario-de-agua-dulce/peces/item/681-paracheirodon-axelrodi-schultz-1956

Weenie Hut Jr's
Weenie Hut Jr's - 8 years ago
yesh! pea gravel. though boil it for ten minutes and wash, wash, wash! though it is also best to strain the pea gravel, I use a mesh pond pot for a strainer, move it all around for a few minutes get all the tiny granules, sand and debris filtered out. pea gravel looks great very natural looking. river rocks too. larger rocks with character also from a creek or what ever sandstone and limestone probably stay away from. there's no reason you can't put natural rocks in but scrub off any algae, boil them and wash them off really well.

and watch somebody will say different to try and get you to buy ugly expensive aquarium gravel. there's always somebody with a differing opinion for some reason.

I was stocked 19 neon tetras in my discus tank. It took 2 weeks for my discus to eat them all. Never again.
Pablo Ricardo de Tarragon
Pablo Ricardo de Tarragon - 8 years ago
+Joe Amazon Most of the people online have no idea of the needs of the fishes.
First mixed species aquariums are an utterly non sense, as you'll never meet the requirements needed by each specie. So you'll have a bunch of poor ugly fishes, with perpetual diseases, and lots of dead animals. For me that looks like a concentration camp.
The only happy ones are the guys selling fishes and medications.
Discus are big cichlids predators liking rather hot water with lots of dominance and territorial features, so it's better to keep them in a specific tank.
Tetras are predated small fishes living in big schools in rather fresh water with low light. And a stressed tetra has no colors...

hmrhuang
hmrhuang - 8 years ago
+Joe Amazon Well, cardinals do big enough (barely) where they're not so easily swallowed by angelfish and discus.  The trouble is they are fairly expensive when you try to buy them big.  Thus when aquarists get them small and try to grow them out in Amazonian biotopes with large cichlids, they get to observe a real-life food chain up close....=)
Joe Amazon
Joe Amazon - 8 years ago
The funny thing is I see so many videos of people that put neon's or cadinal's in with large cichlids. 
hmrhuang
hmrhuang - 8 years ago
+Joe Amazon Exactly.  Neons are typically farm raised and are tiny dither fish.  They don't stand a chance against large cichlids, even those as "docile" as angelfish and discus....

NeoMinerva
NeoMinerva - 9 years ago
I agree that while the fish look amazing the browned out babytears carpet really takes away from the overall beauty of the tank. Why not replace it with something easier to maintain, like pearlweed or dwarf hairgrass? Also the addition of even single larger fish with the small mouth with probably entice the tetras to actually tightly school at times other than feeding.

Clydesdale2045
Clydesdale2045 - 7 years ago
That's the thing with Angel fish. Sometimes neons will be fine with them if the angel fish grew up with them, but you may have a rogue angelfish one day realize they can fit in their mouth and then they become expensive food after that. Cardinal Tetras get a little bigger than Neons and are less likely to be eaten by angelfish and why I picked them... even though they're $5.99 each at my LFS whereas neons were just $1 each at Petsmart.

Question: Where can I buy some stones that are not to expensive that are INTERT? IN other words that don't' raise the PH? I am about to set up my 55 gallon… all I need now are the stones. I"d like to buy them a local rock company because I am really into doing DIY… and to save money… but would be willing to spend a little more if they are cool stones… I know slate is good but any other thoughts?

+Tharn Berry local rock companies will carry them. I meant drainage rocks. They are use around drainage ditch by landscapers. I usually pick the shape I want instead of chipping them.

I get larger sewer rocks and chip them into the shape I want. The ones I get are pretty much inert. I do boil them before hand though.

I am afraid this video shows nothing but absolute incompetence. The fish tank is way too small for such enormous number of Tetras and the acquascaping is less than average (failed iwogumi, boring stones, no depth, no tension, no details, poor choice of plants too ... it looks like those fish tank back in 1970s). The true beauty of having Cardinal Tetras is that they are social fish forming shoal, an effect absolutely absent in your tank with so many of them. The tank would be great with only 15 Cardinals. With 100 of them, your tank looks like tanks you find in pet shop. It looks horrible and completly unnatural. I feel sorry for your fish.

Matt Richison - 10 years ago
Hello this is from a I phone. But I have the regular blue, and 12 cardinals, my question is does the red fill in over time? Or are they just pale looking from shipping? They look just like this video though. Thx.
Mike Kollin
Mike Kollin - 10 years ago
+Matt Richison  THe water has to be just right for them! 
#1 Zero Ammonia or very little, Zero or very, very little Nitrite.
#2 The Ph has to be within proper limits.
#3 The temperature has to be right!
#4 YOu have to make sure the tank is at least a month or more old so the Bacteria is completely set. 

I have 22 Cardinal tetras and have had them for 6 Months and they are very, very healthy! Find out what the proper PH is and water temperature for your Tetras! And put Bacteria into the water on a regular basis until it's set up! I put Bacteria in for a month, every day! 

Every time you do a water change or add water, you have to add a little bacteria again. 

P.s. And yes, the transportation method may have wore then out. Oh, when first adding fish, turn the lights off or way down. It helps them to calm. 
Vivaldo Medeiros
Vivaldo Medeiros - 10 years ago
They live in the same temp as discus.. so if your discus are ok, they should be also. Cardinal tetras are somewhat hard to mantain, the way they were collected and the stress level they passed while transporting, may cause them to do not eat ... you have to put cardinals on a hospital tank and offer live food before sending em to your main aquarium. Also, the PH must be 5.5 - 6.5. Not much water movement and some shadowed places where they might seek for protection. Buying a school of 20-30 will help them adapt faster.
Matt Richison
Matt Richison - 10 years ago
Cool thanks. They all died!!!! Weird!!! My discus are doing great!!! And eat like pigs. Those cardinal never ate anything, and they just started dropping 1 at a time. Any thoughts. Temp maybe?
Vivaldo Medeiros
Vivaldo Medeiros - 10 years ago
neon tetras have the red color ending in the middle of their body while cardinal tetras have the red line filled to the tail ... maybe yours are not showing full colors because - as you said - shipping.

Fish aren't necessary to cycle a new tank. Instead, use small amounts of fish food. As this rots, it will release ammonia which will help the tank cycle. HTH

Hi, I'm just setting up a 60 liter myself! It depends... what are you putting in the tank (plants, rocks, maybe ornaments?) and if you are putting in other species. A well planted 60 liter can hold around a dozen neon tetras, but only if they are the only species.
