Foo the Flowerhorn

I like flowerhorn fish. Most of my videos are about flowerhorn care. A lot of it can be applied to oscars and other carnivorous cichlids. I also like nano pl...

we have a small fish tank that is empty right now because we moved but we put fish in there that we catch from local streams. we had some swordtails like in the pic below but my son likes to catch plecos and the first one is a good sized bristlenose that he scooped up and the second is a regular one that i caught with my hands in a small creek
we let em go though.

Scooped up a 50 gallon tank with lights, heater and filter a few years ago during Black Friday. Been sitting in my storage. Hope to busy it out later this year if I get a pad.

Damn, that's a big pleco!

I remember when that was the only fish I had in my 10 gallon and didn't realize how big it grew in a short amount of time.

Then I learned it was territorial and was attacking my goldfish lmao. Had too small of a tank, but didn't think that would happen.

 

[stuntman mike]

yeah the plecos are all over the rivers here in hawaii. super aggressive.

 

[MakeNTGreatAgain]

u think fish can hear music?

 

[ICE CITY CF]

u think fish can hear music?

Yea but they hear differently than we do.

They have two ears but they're located inside their body.

My understanding is that fish experience sound more as internal vibrations in their bones than as audible "noise".

In theory loud music could be super stressful for them, but I be slapping my **** with some decent equipment and they don't seem bothered.

I got a 46 gallon bowfront I've had set up for like 10years. Last few months the 3 African Cichlids I had on there died...I cleaned the tank out and got rid of the sand...currently have it filled with nothing in it. Tested the water and it's ready for more fish...figuring out what substrate I want first, then deciding on fish.

Kinda wanna get some firemouth cichlids, but part of me wants to make it a community tank.

 

[mplsdunk]

I had a bunch of tanks back in the day. Kept South American cichlids and had some other random stuff like a Lima shovelnose, bunch of polypterus.

then I switched over to African cichlids and kept frontosas and peacocks. Then I moved and sold all my fish.

I’d like to set up a big tank one day like 500g or so with peacock bass and rays but I don’t have the house for that now.

Those first ones look cool but that last ones looks gross he’s brave for touching that with his hands

 

[mplsdunk]

Pecos (the gross fish) are dope. They are tanks, you can throw them in with anything and they will survive and chase it off.

they eat like horse though and poop like them too. they eat wood so if you keep one you need a big tank and some wood in it for decoration.

Posted this in the COVID Project thread already but I'm all about marine aquariums and reef tanks. Particularly LPS and SPS corals.

This a little 25 gallon slice of the ocean I've been working on since lock down.

 

[mplsdunk]

dope

have you ever kept freshwater or did you go straight to salt?

A little reef tank would be dope.
