I have them since one year in my 50 gallon and they're stunning. If you're in for the color, they can comfortably take the place even of reef-dwelling fish.
As some one who is wanting to get into the aquarium hobby and is looking to start off with some panda Cory’s prob around 6-8 and some neon Tetras in a 20 gallon tank. Anyone have any useful tips or information?
@@PrimeTimeAquatics oh absolutely. They're all gorgeous. I just wish I had at least one male. 🤣 my LFS usually has some in stock so I think I'll just have to get an adult male.
If I ever move out of this 2nd story apartment with warnings to firefighters that the second floors are weak, ill get a 75g with like 30 congo tetras, but I'm already not supposed to have the 55g. But I know all the maintenance guys. Heck one of them drinks beer on my couch watching TV sometimes. I don't mind they do a lot of extra things they don't have to. Things I physically can't do. But yeah congos are soooo beautiful. Yet not tacky beautiful like glo-fish (sorry no offense intended to glofish fans, their...ummm..derr...not for me
I just got a 180 gallon aquarium and thinking about a community tank with congos

I agree!
At almost 67, I don't think enough people realize how much more enjoyable schools of fish are.
Congo's & bleeding hearts... An absolute beautiful mix.. just make sure you get more than 5 of each.. Their schooling is absolutely fantastic
Nice fish would fit perfectly in my community tank.
These are beautiful
Got 10 of them today.
I worked in a small fish store for years, and I love the congo tetra, but new keepers doesn't seem to like them
So beautyfull
Beautiful fish, I had about 35 individuals in a 500l tank, amazing observations, great fish, best regards
Iam also a huge fan of glas catfish
I had a bunch before a big freeze and lost a bunch of fish. Loved them! Will be getting again
They are so cool!
Absolutely stunning, I have 6 odessa barbs on a 65 gal, looking to fill it out. These might be for me
That would be a nice combo!
Love mine I have a group of 6
How many would be appropriate for a planted community 180 with roseline sharks being the majority fish in the tank?
Maybe 30 or so?
It's a shame they're never colored-up in the store, so folks don't realize how amazing they look!
Awesome fish👌!
SO true
ligthing is very important too, bright white light will really make those colors pop
Just wish they didn't have the flowing fins. I like them with cichlids, but don't want those fins nipped.
Dwarf Cichlids should be ok, provided the tank is large enough and lots of hiding spots are provided.
🔥
I love this fish ❤
But I still didn't have them 😕
It's my dream ✨️
May i ask what lights are you using? and what setting are you using?
That wasn’t my tank, but the AI Blade lights are really good.
¿Y por qué puros machos? Las hembras no serán tan coloridas pero también son bonitas 🙂
I agree!
If full grown - can they be kept with electric blue acara?
Sure!
I got a school of 9 about a month ago but they are not this colorful. any idea why?
They color up as they grow larger. Also, females don’t show as much color either.

@@PrimeTimeAquatics thanks
I got a 55 gallon and I want to do species only. How many can I add in 55 gallon I want a large school ?
Maybe 15-18? That will look cool!
i just lost 10 congo tetra :( i really loved this fish
Sorry that happened!
But I got 8 and got only females. 😢😂
Still look good though.
