Good informative video. Concise, straight to the point without any unnecessary blah blah etc as in some other videos from aquarium keepers RUclipsr's vids.
Thank you for the video! I just got 5 glas catfish. They are not hiding, they are not timed,acting like they are always been there 🙂. I hope that five of them be ok
@Fish sound Aquatics It looks like this guy has those "cruelty to animal" tetras that are hand injected with dye in India. He also has too many fish in that tank, and too much diversity, not enough fish of any kind to school.
@@caterinasantini6600 at the time I wrote that, it was when I was just starting a new big tank, I already had others, but uh yeah. the pH is way better now around 7-ish and all the fish are super healthy and fine
@@ClearWolf uh i got it! May i ask you with which fishes tou think glass catfishes can live with? I reali like cat fish and bettas the same way, but i read around is not easy for them to live together :(
@@caterinasantini6600 i recommend if you want them to be together, you get a female glass catfish and get a female Beta, there’s a small percentage they won’t fight, but if your lucky they’ll be just fine! what sized tank u got?
@@ClearWolf ohh, i read its almost impossibile to know if a glass catfish is a male or female tho, also the glass catfish cant be only one, poor thing 🤔 i still have to do everithing, i didnt buy a tank tate, so i have to set it up and cycle it, but i was thinking around 25-30gallons since glass catfish need like 5gallon for fish
hi, do you know why glass catfishes not swimming and just hide behind in the back? Its been 2 weeks since I bought them. None died, but just hiding in the back of the tank. Thanks for your help!
They are very shy fish. Its hit or miss how shy they will be but that's their natural behavior until they know it's safe. I bought one (last one they had) from petsmart and it swims freely even with a betta around
Can’t say I’m a fan of the injected glass tetras. At least the current craze of Glofish are born the way they are, but the paint injection is abhorrent. You really shouldn’t support that!
@@caterinasantini6600 - Yeah they are...they’re Glass Tetras with paint injected in them. Google “painted glass tetra” and you will see the same fish pop up as he has in his tank.
@@randomfeller man, i googled it, they are what i'm sayng, fluo, glass fishes with fluo colours are painted, without fluo colours no, thats what i was sayingggg
Think about it for a second...if you’re buying fish that was dipped in paint u are supporting the people that are doing it. Pet stores don’t dipped fish but they are in it to make $$$. As for the hobby we should boycott the people who do this to fish for easy money.
zzyoyo89 u know nothing about this hobby, retail breeders will do this for faster sales. Because ppl like u are uneducated and keep buying from them....it’s not a lie it’s a fact google it up. And I’m not talking about the glass catfish, I’m talking about the tetra in the background stupid.
I like how he says 30 gallons when the tank that there in is clearly 10 .
😂
Ik right 😂
"they should be kept in a school of 6 or more" but in his tank he only has one.. haha
I think he has more than 1 but defenetly not 6

Lots of wrong information , don’t lisen to this dude
Who do you figure?

Yea I saw some wrong info in the video as well
You dont need a 30 gallon for your glass catfish you need 5 gallons per catfish that's why he said you should have 6 of them in a 30 gallon
This video is pretty good but about the pH thing, I have a few Glass catfish and they live in 8.0 pH all fine. There all heathy.
If you do sone research hey say to keep it from 6 to 7.5 tho, its hard to have a specific ph for them? xD

Too much bright light.
What are the silver fish with orange fins??
dj85rocco there a type of rainbowfish
How mutch is 30 galons :s my aquarium is 140 liters
30 gallon is about 90 liters
140 litres is 36 gallons
mine died and idk what i did
If it was alone, probably this, too much stress, they live in groups of 100 others glassfishes in nature :(
1 glass fish for every 2 gallons
Next video = clown fish care tips
Nice fish....
thank you
Make a video on sact aka argus fish

Those in the video arent painted tho!

@@randomfeller painted fishes arent transparent, are the ones with (usually)fluorescent colours👀
@@caterinasantini6600 - I already gave you the exact terms to look up identifying the fish. If you can’t figure it out, I don’t know what to tell ya.

Stop buying and supporting pet store that dip fish in paint.
What?
@zzyoyo89 that's what I am trying to figure out
Think about it for a second...if you’re buying fish that was dipped in paint u are supporting the people that are doing it. Pet stores don’t dipped fish but they are in it to make $$$. As for the hobby we should boycott the people who do this to fish for easy money.
@@khol3167 who dips fish in paint tho? That would instaly kill them
