Dude I can honestly say that after keeping up with you guys for so many years... You have actually shown me the right way to pair cichlids... Never in a million years would I have looked at the sevrum as the most versatile cichlid... U can mix them up with virtually any type of tropical fish... They get really big but in my opinion they pretty much match their tank mates aggression levels... With small mouth and larger body they give you the ability to mix them with monsters or traditional community schooling fish... On top of the color combinations they have available... Definitely became the best centerpiece idea fish or even a complimentary fish to monster cichlids... I have even seen people have luck mixing them with African cichlids which I wouldn't recommend obviously but they hold their own wherever they are and can be as peaceful as goldfish 😂
They have so much personality and find their role in the tank and thrive. Any pairing i do with them as long as the other fish isn't crazy aggressive they do great
They are literally the best fish. They have so much personality as the grow. Mine runs my tank and he is not the biggest. He doesn't attack just keep everyone in check and is always front and center dancing waiting for food
I have a couple of electric blue acaras in one tank with 2 angels, 5 golden lyretail mollies, 2 bristlenose plecos, 5 java loaches, 5 panada corydoras and 10 zebra danios. No agression whatsoever frfom anyone in that tank. And acaras are so beautiful!
They keep all my other fish in line. Not aggressively, just trying to keep everyone happy so they can all get more food. Anytime they see me they are front and center in my tank dancing in excitement waiting for a treat haha I love them
Hey nice video! Was wondering if 2 Angels, 1 EBA and 1 GEO, some corys and tetras would work out for a 40 Gallon? Id maybe also throw in a small pleco species in the mix. Was looking for some advice!
Hi bro I'm from India have a doubt I have kept 2 blue acaras with Oscar ,parrot and green terror ,green terror and oscars are attacking always should I leave them in same tank and wait for a day or shall I remove pls respond
Just got one the other day his tail got nipped from peacocks that I have did it but now he’s holding his own and he’s fine. His tail grow back. It’s only a little teeny bit off.
I've got some Panda Cory's and a Peppered Cory with my Acara and three YoYo Loaches and I'm surprised how the Yoyos will hold their own and in some cases will be a stage 5 clinger to him, lol.
Cichlid people. How would the eba fare with tiger barbs ? Little info out there. But some factors inplicate that eba could be a nice centerpiece with them
Question one of my electric blue alarms face gets dark for a few days and then back to normal constantly donu know what this is from? I have two in a 75 gallon tank with driftwood and other tank mates are geophagus and roseline sharks
too bad my Fahakas would take chunks out of them. Those are pretty cool! Big Severums would work. Lol. 💦 By the way, that's a pretty reasonable and attractive tank! 👍🍻
I know this comment is old but honestly I feel like every fish has its own personality. In general eb acuras are well behaved and don't bite other fish but the issue with tetras is that they fit in most fish mouths. You could have an eb acura that doesn't attempt to eat them or one that might swallow a few if he gets hungry. If they were a little bigger there would be no issue
I had to rehome my male EBA due his massive aggression he litterly Killed one of my Uaru Cichlid that was about 8 inches and the EBA was only about 3 inches. Just goes to show each fish has there own personality
I had one and he was mean. He started to kill everything he killed my apisto which cost me like 30 bucks and than he killed my galaxy rasboras all 6 of them. My blue acra was small but he was a feisty one. I had to give it away cause a lot of the other face got scared of it.
They are all beautiful I don’t know which one is my favorite yet just starting out 💜💜💜

Love to hear it!
I love Eb Acaras!! One of my top 5s for sure !!
Same! 🤙🏼🤙🏼
They have so much personality and find their role in the tank and thrive. Any pairing i do with them as long as the other fish isn't crazy aggressive they do great
EB Acaras are one on the prettiest as well:)
Agreed!

Great group of fish....
I've got my EBAs with clown loaches and roseline sharks. Thanks for the other suggestions, i was thinking of going with rainbow fish.

You should do a video on the king kong parrot fish
Yes please!
@Sergiomartinez-lh7xi I did a recently video on them!

What kind of red Led you have in the back on the tank ? looks cool !
Is electrik blue acara is the same with blue electrik ramirezi?🙏🏻
Can I put these with my yellow lab cichlids?
Can we add Arrowana blue base in that will it be possible?
How do you feel about discus as tank mates?
Do you think a salt bath will work for them I have not heard back from you for some information about this it not white spot or Ike

My to have stopped eating tryed a few things nothing worked have you any ideas for me
Today i purchased two pairs of blue acara fish at reasonable price
Very nice
Will blue acara stay with frontosa
Should you keep a single one or one male and a few females if you have the room (in a community tank)?
Yep either would work
I've got some Panda Cory's and a Peppered Cory with my Acara and three YoYo Loaches and I'm surprised how the Yoyos will hold their own and in some cases will be a stage 5 clinger to him, lol.
I will always choose Anubias over Severum in any tank.
Can we keep them with African cichlid?

@@baddestmofo3724 have had a eba with the barbs for 3 months now. They are all friends.

Might just be aggression, possibly breeding behavior
? what place do you buy your fish from
Bro Severum is a mid-aggressive fish.. Because he is the ruler of my oscar tank 😂
too bad my Fahakas would take chunks out of them.
Those are pretty cool!
Big Severums would work.
Lol. 💦
By the way, that's a pretty reasonable and attractive tank! 👍🍻
How about electric blue rams?
Can I put blue acara in with neon tetres

If you get a baby electric blue acura and put it with them you have a great chance of it working out
Parrot fish , Bala shark also live happily with them brother
I had to rehome my male EBA due his massive aggression he litterly Killed one of my Uaru Cichlid that was about 8 inches and the EBA was only about 3 inches. Just goes to show each fish has there own personality
Angelfish nice? Those lot are mean as shit lol. Super aggressive when they get big :O
I had severums and they were not peaceful at all !! Especially the turquoise severum I had, he was nasty..
Probably was in too small of a tank
@@CichlidBros 90 gallon, they were 5-6 inches
Me, who has them with livebearers
I had one and he was mean. He started to kill everything he killed my apisto which cost me like 30 bucks and than he killed my galaxy rasboras all 6 of them. My blue acra was small but he was a feisty one. I had to give it away cause a lot of the other face got scared of it.
shouldve known before, No wonder Mr. Icey gets bullied and beat up by some 7 month old convicts and an auratus
Sorry bro...but u have good knowledge abt Cichlid fishes but why ur fishes looks very faded and colorless
Did you even watch the video? And some shown are from stores anyway
Tetras with acara??????i don't think so 😵💫
Okay bud.
f pleco
