MY FAVORITE NANO FISH!!

- I finally got my hands on my favorite nano rasbora!!
One of the best fish tank ideas is to have a big school of nano fish and I think the lambchop rasbora (espei rasbora) is the best nano fish for the job!!
These are tight schooling fish that look amazing in a large group, cruising across the fish tank.
Dwarf rasboras are excellect little nano fish for a small fish tank or, even better, as a large school in a big aquarium.

God bless ya, Fish Nerds! I'll see ya next time!!
At last, someone else who appreciates these little guys! 😁 I've got Hengel's Rasbora, and I just love them, they've got bags of character. 😊
Yes!!! They’re awesome!!
I went back today to get more but I was too late and someone else had already bought this week’s shipment.
@@TheFishNerd D'oh! 😝 Hope you can get some more soon. 😊
I had 40 of these in a 60 gallon once. Their schooling was amazing. They were not just going back and forth. They were doing patterns of swirls that are just as spectacular as the ocean schooling fish you see on the Nature channel. However, a few months in they suddenly just stopped schooling. They just all decided that things are chill and there's no need to hang out together. Would I get them again? Probably. Even though it lasted only a few months, the schooling was still incredible.
Lol that's something new 😆🤩
Yup same with me. I think, Once they are confident about the place they will stop schooling
Great choice about doing a big school of small fish. The sight can be amazing.
Thanks!! I agree!
I am crazy about Espie Rasboras. I have a school around the size of your school, and like you I would like to double it. To me they are at the top of the nano fish pyramid with Rummy Nose Tetra for directional schoolers. I love good size schools of nano fish because you can se that the school has personality, where you can’t see that with just a few fish.
I agree 100000%
I never cared for harlequin Rasbora myself, though when I saw the espei in a LFS, I fell in love with them. I have them in my main tank with Cardinals.
Yeah, I think they’re far and away a prettier, more interesting fish than the harlequins.
That's what I think myself. It's odd considering they are very similar fish.
@@AquariumThoughtsHarlequins are a bit less active and more mellow while the espies are always sparring plus espies have a very bright hot orange colour which the harlequins lack.
I have a small group in a 29 and love them! Great little fish. 😀
Agreed!! And their color is on par with neons, I think.
Those nano fish are amazing to watch in your tank. So beautiful.
I love em!!
Really cool looking nano fish. Schooling well together. Looks great in a Planted tank.
Thanks!! I agree!
I was thinking about getting these little guys for my 10 gallon, but seeing the way they love swimming long distances would make me feel bad to do so.
Ooh LOVE a big ole school of tiny fish !! Nice pick 👍 My heart belongs to nano fish & tanks but you sure have me thinking about this... Thanks for the inspo !
Blame Bob Steenfott. He’s the one who made me want a big school of tiny fish. :)
Your right about them being hard to get ahold of big numbers at once. I’ve been buying them as I see them in my local pet stores trying to build a large school for my 6ft long 90 gallon. So far I have 25 and 7 Pygmy corys. The corys school with them back and forth across the tank more often than not which I didn’t expect. Cool video. Thanks for sharing
A big school in that tank will look awesome!
Can you post a video when they are already relaxed?
Update soon!
Thanks again, love your videos, so informative.
Great looking setups man. Keep up the good work! I do have the bell notification on so I never miss your new videos coming out. My favorite up and coming Fishtuber!
Thanks!!! That means a ton!!
I love my little lamchops. They are amazing when they color up. Mine love playing in the bubbles from the sponge filter!
Lookin good both the tanks and the fish!
Thanks Leah!!
Nice vid. I enjoyed watching, so thank you for sharing! God’s blessings!
Thanks Jose!! Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video and nice school fish...love it!🙂
Thanks Karin!!
I have to say, I honestly think this is the first time I've heard a grown man say "soo pretty" 😂😂 awesome tank!
Haha!! Am I wrong tho? Lol
Thanks man!
The 55 is looking nice 👍
Thanks bro!
Thank you for answering my other question, really appreciate, a lot of them don't bother. Another question , what is the adult size of the espeis, Rachael O'leary says 1.2 inches & another video says 2 to 2.5 inches, your answer please. Thnks
Sure thing! Rachel is correct. 1.2 inches is a BIG Espei. Anything that gets close to 2 inches is a different fish. :)
I love your tank! I think you also got a few harlequin rasboras there too.. I want this fish too! I have a 20 gallon..I am planing to get 6 or 8..
You'll love them!!
They do school tightly and have an exotic look. How do you know the plants are male? "he, this guy" lol Just kidding...Looking good
Haha!! Got me.
is it okay to have them along with mollys?
Gwen says you should name the angelfish "MomIwannafishlikethat". (Think that comment was really intended for me.)
Haha!! That is now officially his name!
Add some Cattappa leaves and some peat moss and watch your rasboras glow in the blackwater conditions!
Looks very sharp when done right!!!
It looks like you got two different types of rasbora; esprei and Hengeli
I think you are right, Noticed he ignored this comment because he has no idea
How come a lot of them don't have the reddish or copper coloring , they just look white with the black chop mark or are they still very young ?
Young and still relatively new to the tank, haven't settled in yet in this video.
They're all colored up now.
Awesome video Thanks for sharing FishFam NJAE19
Thanks Victor!!
Forget the fish
Where'd you get that driftwood tho!
Picked up separate pieces here and there. It's all malaysian driftwood.
Did they not stop schooling like that after a few days?
Nope. They still do
any success on breeding these
Negative. But then I never really tried.
Aye!
😎
do you still sell blue ramshorn snails online
Not currently. Lost my colony a while back.
I also seem to be either continuously moving my buddies from temporary homes until real homes become available or I'm waiting on fish to become available. This is the problem of the hobbyist with Multi Tank Syndrome. Numbers 6:24-26
Lol
Hi fish nerd, do you still keep blue ramshorn snails? I want to buy some from you, I cant find your ebay
Unfortunately, I lost my colony of them a while ago. I still have a few individuals but I need to get them set up in a new tank to built the colony back up.
@@TheFishNerd is there any way That you can reserve me 5-10 whenever you are ready to sell
@@TheFishNerd ill pay in advance
@@TheFishNerd please man, I cant find anyone else that sells true blue ramshorn snails, theyre all a mux of brown and blue
It’s probably gonna be a good long while before I’m able to start selling them again if I do.
This is the guy I bought mine from originally:
