That Inpaichthys is so beautiful. I'm sure one was imported decades ago as i remember seeing a picture of something very similar in one of my dads Fish magazines. It was labelled as a mystery fish, no locality, they didn't even know the genus! Hopefully it will become more available as I was obsessed with it when i was a little kid❤
Fell in love with Serrapinnus kriegi! I currently have Reed Tetras (Hyphessobrycon elachys) and golden dwarf barb (Pethia gelius) An odd mix, but look fantastic together. These S Kriegi look great!
As always a pleasure to see your videos. There is no channel in RUclips that I get more excited when I see the notification of a new video. I wish I could get some of the fish you show but the hobby is not that big here in Spain. Thanks for alll the content!
I was in the midst of a deep philosophical lecture that was boring me and staring at my aquarium and thinking I should switch to fish videos when you're notification came up...yay What can you tell me about longfin corydoras? Pick some up at the Minnesota aquarium swap meet yesterday along with red plecostomus and hump headed limia, swap meets are terrific for fish you'll never see at the store, thank you for the terrific presentations and thorough education
thank you! Afraid i can't tell you much different about longfin Corys, other than be a bit more vigilant with water changes, long fin versions are sometimes a bit more delicate with bacterial infections.
@@belowwater good to know, I've also speculated that the albinos are a bit more touchy than the typical bronze c o r y. Is fin rot interchangeable with a bacterial infection? How do you treat b.i. when they show? You mentioned one fish that was visually to you infested, I couldn't see anything, who was the parasite investing it, fish lice? Were the long fin varieties found in the wild or fish room created?
@@GreenCanvasInteriorscape albino fish also, yes. Fin rot is usually bacterial, but you have to look at the source, if you keep up water changes you normally do not get that. Those tetras had some nematodes (worms) on them when they arrive, you see them on the first shot, fish on the left. All those longfin varieties are made by breeders. In nature, fish that develop that sort of mutation usually get picked off by predators.
Thanks for this. A few look similar to a species I have in my aquarium that no one has been able to identify so far. They look similar to other fish, similar to pencil fish, but get much fatter in both width and in hight, topv to bottom. Mine have all lived for years, school, hang out in the middle of the tank and seem to hide a lot in thick vegetation (especially after i lost power for 8 days in a freezing ice storm and half of them perished due to zero lights, airation and temperature between freezing, despite my 24/7 efforts to heat water bottles and put them in the water to keep the water as warm as possible).
@@belowwateri would have to give them a chance at reproducing and see how many they end up with, otherwise it will be off balance is how i see it. And I often say that I want different sizes of the same species
Great Vid. Do you have any recommendations for a small tetra that likes very warm water. My basement fish room runs as high as 87F at this time of year. Cheers, Chris
that is quite warm, especially long term. I think many Amazon lowland species that are not deep in the forest should do fine. I find good choices are fish like Hyphessobrycon jackrobertsi, ehrostigma or bentosi. While this is quite warm i think cardinal tetras will be ok also, certainly false neons (Paracheirodon simulans) would do well.
@@belowwater Thanks for the quick reply Oliver! Not all my tanks are that hot but some of them get there when it is cold out and the furnace is going full blast. I keep mostly live bearers and killifish but I have always had a soft spot for tetras and many of my friends are tetra nuts. Cheers, Chris
@steffanjansenvanvuuren3257 not all of those fish have an adipose fin, Poeciliocharax (P.weitzmanni, Weitzman's darter "tetra") for example do not. The common names are really not scientifically accurate to that degree. Technically, as far as i know "tetra" refers to _Tetragonopterus_ - hardly an aquarium fish we would call a "tetra".
I’m really enjoying this series on new tetra species. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and information.
Glad you enjoy it!

It just got a name last week, I fixed it in the title and description!
Very interesting
🥰Tyttobrycon sp. Whow, what a beauty🥰

Yes, and easy fish and very beautiful
@@belowwaterLooking forward to the Cat Con VT show this year!! Thanks!
Beautiful, every one of them and I'm sure there are more to be discovered.
I love your series of videos on new tetras. So fascinating! 👏👏👏👏👏
thank you. The _Inpaichthys parauapiranga_ was literally named today, a week after i posted the video!
Awesome
thank you
Great info! It is absolutely amazing what nature creates! Thanks for sharing this with us!
Thank you!
Keep up the great work!
Thanks, will do!
Oh boy, this group of fish really makes me miss being in the import business. 🙁 I want them all!!! 😁 Can't wait for the next video. 👍👍
Great video as always. Love new tetras

I think you could maybe mail order some of the fish from Germany, but I know it always takes time for new fish to become more available.
Thanks for new video! That Knodus was very nice.
yes, fantastic fish - just like _Creagrutus_ , we don't see enough of these round headed things!

you can always send me a photo by facebook, maybe I can identify the fish for you.
👍🏻👍🏻 incredible!
Thanks!
How nice!!! Would love to do a scape with them.
yes, 300 of the little Morse code tetras in a 200 gallon aquarium!

oohh will you look at that
It pains me that we never see characidium and teleocichla ever imported
yes, and they get along well, they argue over the prime spots, because both eat the same things...I have several species here.
Both come in to the hobby from time to time
@@belowwater Good thing I can always keep North American darters. Very similar
👍🏼🤜🏼
Oliver, does Serrapinnus kriegi mimic Corydoras hastatus?
yes, I think so
Does anybody know what the species the small yellow fish that appears around 5:13 is?
watch tetra guide 2, we called it Pristella sp. Juruena, still has no name ruclips.net/video/HEJkC1gKQ3M/видео.html
Love your videos but I’m afraid your books are much too expensive.
unfortunately it is very expensive to publish anything printed in smaller numbers.
Copplla does not have an adipose fin, how can it be called a Tetra? or what am I missing?
i use the term loosely, the youtube algorithm would not be happy with "Characins" , _Copella_ are called "Splashing tetras" in English.
@@belowwater I really enjoy your videos. I wonder about the adipose fin? I have seen a video of them spawning, amazing to see.

Hyphessobrycon epicharis?
that was in New Tetras 2, three years ago: ruclips.net/video/HEJkC1gKQ3M/видео.html
@@belowwater where has the time goes?!
