Great video. Those Pinstriped Dambas are looking stunning 🤩
Thanks! And yes, I love the Dambas as well.
Great video brother!
Appreciate it!
These are easily my 2nd favorite aquarium fish. I have 25 of them in my 8 foot 240 gallon tank. I definitely agree with the 6 foot tank recommendation. My largest one is 6 1/2 inches long with all the others not far behind, so I couldn’t imagine them darting around in a 4 foot tank. They’re crazy fast and they also never stop moving. A 5 foot tank might be fine but you almost never see those anyway. As for the wild-caught vs captive bred, one way I’ve pretty much figured out that my stores have been carrying captive bred ones is the fact that I’ve been noticing that some are often deformed, which tells me they’re probably being inbred too so I’ve found myself picking out the ones that look the best without deformities at fish stores. Still not sure where some of my other ones came from though since I got them from private individuals in fish rehoming FB groups. Mine are not all that skittish. I can stick my camera in their faces and they don’t care, and they follow me when I walk by, probably due to me having them in a huge tank in a big school.
Wow 25 in a 240g! That'd be a dream setup for me. Congrats!
@@Riffwaters yep it’s a big super school. I wasn’t even planning on keeping that many. The last batch I got, I was planning to surprise one of my local fish store owners with them for his display tank but when I went to the rehomer’s house and saw how big they were, I was like “Oooh I’m keeping these”
oh man i love spanner barbs (Barbodes lateristriga) , ever heard of em ? they'll look good in your tanks
