    What kind of fish would you put in this tank? Let me know with a comment!

    Albino cory catfish would look great on the black substrate!

      They would do better on Sand as the rough substrate would heart their barbs whiskers. :) I do love Albino Cory Cats though!

    Very cool no-nonsense approach to setting up a tank. Your friend is already off to a great start thanks to your guidance. As for fish, a nice school of tetras like Rummy nose or Cardinals, along with a small shoal of Corydoras would be a great start. Thanks for posting!

    Great video. It is important to share what are good items for beginners. Sometimes we get carried away buying everything and then it isn't really what we should be purchasing.

    Nice set up. A school of some smaller fish like barbs would be nice.

    I always go for a natural look like this as well, what a great first tank!
    If it was my tank I'd put large schools of rasboras and corys (12 each), a small group of otocinclus (6) and a nice male betta in there. Probably a veiltail or elephant ear of some kind. Plakats zoom around big open spaces, but the long and drape-like fins of other types need extra space even more.
    But I'm a betta addict, with 25.

      Such great suggestions!! I showed my friend chili rasporas. They may be one of the species we choose. Holy moly, 25 Bettas. I really love the one I have!
      Thank you for watching!!

    Nice set up. Pretty ideal for a novice fish keeper. Great plant choices. How about platies and corydoras?

    • @RaccoonCreekAquatics
      @RaccoonCreekAquatics  6 лет назад

    Awesome video. I love the enthusiasm, love plants at one point had more plants than fish lol. Thanks for the helpful video so many can use. Nano fish would be awesome. Neons, badis, pygmy cories, ember tetras etc.

    • @RaccoonCreekAquatics
      @RaccoonCreekAquatics  6 лет назад
