I’m a 25 year old fish keeper from Southern California. I’ve been keeping fish since I was 5 years old, but I didn’t get serious about it until 2014. I specialize in freshwater “sharks” such as rainbow sharks, redtail sharks, bala sharks, and roseline sharks (AKA Denison barbs). I don’t get very deep into informative videos, product review videos, or how-to videos as I just like to show off my aquarium as well as post videos of trips to SeaWorld and zoos.
Species Ramble : Red Tail Shark
Watch in “higher picture quality” 720p60 or 1080p60 ! With some throwback footage of red tailed black sharks I’ve kept in the past including the late great Big Daddy, as well as my current red tail shark that I have today, it is time for another species ramble video !

Male vs Female Roseline Sharks : The REAL Differences
Переглядів 344Місяць тому
Watch in “higher picture quality” 720p60 or 1080p60 ! It’s not just about their overall size like many articles will claim. Generally with roseline sharks (AKA denison barbs sahyadria denisonii), it is hard to tell the difference between male and female most of the time but some of my more mature ones have very obvious differences. #aquarium #aquariumhobby #fish #fishkeeper #rainbowfish #fishke...

Golden Denison Barbs : What I Really Think Of Them
I find keeping a red tailed shark with three different catfish doesn’t seem to cause to much of an issue provided enough space is given for territory. Most of the catfish just don’t care about the shark.
I’m pretty sure they are matting
Nope. I’ve seen some spawning attempts before and this ain’t it
@@ShamuAquatics maybe they are trying to find a leader or something like that
Beyond the color differences, redtail and rainbow sharks have slightly different body and fin proportions, too. Redtail sharks can also get a bit bigger than rainbow sharks: 8 inches vs. 6 inches.
these guys are minnows right?
Cyprinids. More closely related to carp than minnows
@@ShamuAquatics aaah ok. feisty little creatures 😊
Good ramble and breakdown of these mini sharks. Fired Up!!!
Their behavior is SO fascinating. I am noticing the quick movement then still "pause" in the first clip, I don't know anything about these fish but you're a great speaker. If you have more footage, I think it's great and really interesting to watch. Thanks for making this video. I really enjoy this type of video and it's high quality. I wouldn't be able to keep them at home but I really like to see them and learn about them. I appreciate you making this video. I had no idea they were so hard to tell apart and I would have to take notes to learn this fully but that's just a compliment, honestly. Thanks.
Seen the same with birds bathing in tanks...
Wow, even bigger than I thought!
Absolutely stunning, Brandon
Love the redtail sharks they awesome. Congrats on a beautiful addition to your aquarium.
Can I have one red tail shark in a 35 40g tank with black Moore goldfish
I’d only put a redtail shark in a 40g if it was completely alone. Also, tropical fish should not be mixed with goldfish
@@ShamuAquatics just saying a good temperature with fancy goldfish is pretty much the exact same as red tail sharks between 70 and 80F
@@ShamuAquatics that’s the reason why I have asked
@@justinwilson3922 the redtail shark will also likely attack the goldfish. Fancy goldfish are also not very fast swimmers so they’d get nipped up easily
@@ShamuAquatics ok thanks and what would happen if I got a baby with them then because I have a 4 inch black Moore that is still growing and a 5 inch black Moore which is no longer growing
Nice video! How many Roseline sharks and rainbow fish do you have in there?
Beautiful aquarium i love both shark types both beautiful fish
Still a Fired Up Aquarium!!!
hell yeah brother thats a chonker
Wow, that’s rough , though you’re lucky they allow your huge 240 gl tank !
Your videos are great . Really enjoying them I have a 72 gallon overstocked tank , lol k am really good about water quality too and cleaning
Joe Biden does worse than stutter now, lol
very nice bro!!! knew it was only a matter of time before you got a red tail shark! :)
Not surprised..... Love that deep body of it.
Very beautiful. Congratulations
Thanks ! You’re part of the reason I went out to get one lol
Hi Shamu great video.
1st!! Comment at end - congrats on your redtail shark! I was thinking of getting one for my mbuna breeding group. I bet the red tail will he just fine in your large tank🙂👍🏻
Mbunas would keep a redtail in line, most likely. So aggression shouldn’t be an issue ! And thanks !
@@ShamuAquatics yeah there’s just some red zebras. They’re not too awful aggressive.
Sup sup
Suh dude 🍻😎
Just sit back, relax and watch your amazing fish''s!!!
Beautiful colorful fish's you got there!!
Love your video thanks for the close up shots of your beautiful fish.
In this old video, you will see my old large redtail shark chasing my rainbow sharks around. It is highly recommended to only keep one redtail shark/rainbow shark per tank. Keeping multiple together can work long term but there are key points to follow for it to work : 1) keep a group of 5 or more. This only includes redtail sharks and rainbow sharks. Bala sharks and roseline sharks are not part of the group. 2) Have a 100+ gallon tank 5 feet or longer. 3) provide lots of decor and hiding spots. 4) have plenty of dither fish. Now, these fish got along for the most part but as you can see in this video, this redtail shark was the tank boss and he would chase everyone during feeding time for like 30 minutes before going back to being chill. Yes, even with those 4 key points followed, you’ll still see some scuffles and chasing but not as severe as you’d see if you were to just throw 2 or 3 of them in a smaller tank.
What on earth made you put a notorious fin nipping fish in with angelfish 😆😆
Because I’ve never had serpae tetras that nip other fish… just each other.
@@ShamuAquatics They are famous for it, 2nd to tiger barbs!
@@lostmangos yep I hear about it all the time. Still have yet to see them do it. Tiger barbs were a different story
@@ShamuAquatics Possibly because you had several. They are especially bad when alone. They like to fight amongst themselves naturally but will turn their attention to other fish if they cant peck at each other. Keeping them with Angelfish, Guppies, Gourami or Betta is usually a nightmare 😆
@@ShamuAquaticsI meant to ask, are the serpae all dead now?
Some of the most underrated fish, got them in a tank with some cichlids and everyone is peaceful
Can’t beat a two for one. Fired Up Aquarium!!!
🔥🔥🔥
More to the ground crew. Hopefully, they don't bother those stem plants.
Already found a couple floating ludwigia this morning… lol

The new cat should be your mascot - even looks like a "Shamu!"
lol he will likely hardly ever be seen in videos again tho.
Catfish???? SHAMU? Talk talk to me.
very nice I love rapheal catfish and clown loaches!
What a neat tank!
looks like the gravel level is empty :P
Just put some stem plants in the tank lol
