Corys are great for first-time fish keepers! Definitely recommend them. Just stay away from the more sensitive ones and look at getting either bronze or peppered corys - they'll tolerate any mistakes better and look awesome (plus they're very fun to watch). Obviously, do research as corys can be a bit on the sensitive side compared to something like guppies or goldfish but they're still pretty hardy. One thing I also didn't know when I first got mine is that they're scaleless fish and sometimes can't handle treatments that other fish can. I personally have peppered corys that spawn all the time but I've only let a few batches hatch since I already have a few too many. I was also lucky enough last year to get two albinos from my 'normal group' and I also got one this year. It's such a nice surprise. It's like getting a shiny pokemon XD

My first attempt at keeping an aquarium was a complete failure. I set everything up in one night a 10 gallon dumped about 8 different fish in and within a couple of week's all were dead. Except 1 Paradise fish he ended up in a fish bowl for about a year until I tried again. This time I had learned the correct way to set up a tank. He made it back to a ten gallon and even made the move to a new home a year later. That was back in 1979. The reason I bring this up is Paradise fish are very hardy. The are in the same family as bettas and can also take a gulp of air they also have a high tolerance to extreme different water temps. I read a story yrs ago of them being taken from ponds that were frozen and revived. . I think they would make good first fish though they can be quite combative at time's mainly with their own. I haven't seen any in the store's I shop in anywhere for yrs. They're rather pretty also.

I can definitely agree with Betta, Amano Shrimp, Molly, Endler, Gourami and Mystery Snails. They are all really hardy and easy to keep. But Neons are often wild caught and come with diseases, and additionally they have problems with hard water. Albino Corys are extensively bred to look the way they do, so they are way less hardy than other Corys, but it really depends on the bloodline. Cherry shrimp are really not as hard to keep as everybody thinks, but you definitely need a well established tank to put them in. But still, great video, keep being awesome :)

For some reason, bettas never worked for me. Not matter how much I tried, they'd die within a month. On the other hand, when I was starting off, I unknowingly put 3 guppies and 3 platies together in a 5 gallon uncycled tank and they survived the whole cycle, no problem and lived for almost 3 years. Moreover, I also had white skirt tetras as an absolute beginner and they did very well as well. 😅 Now after years, I'm again gonna try Bettas despite the bad history and trauma associated with them. Maybe this time it might work out. Wish me luck 🤞

Listen, petco seems to be really inconsistant with their fish health. I've bought over 5 albino corydoras, and they either fail in the first week or so, or absolutely thrive and get enourmous. its about a 70% chance that they will NOT be healthy, thats why its super important to get a quarentine tank. If you have a local dedicated fish store rather than a big pet in general chain store, always choose the dedicated store as they will most likely have the healthier specimens. But if your only option is petco, go for it, you might have to spend a little extra money on dead fish though.

At Petsmart, there were 3 dead in the tank. And only 5 alive, so I got those 5, and was going to come back when they re-stocked for more. But the next day, 2 of the catfish I got died, and the other 3 were not very health, so I let them heal, and a month later, they are health, and I even got 6 more. Then I have had amazing luck with shrimp from Petco or Petsmart.

I recently got back into getting an aquarium after 30 years. I got my 10 gallon back in October. I know I'm a bit overstocked but am saving up for a 20 or 30 gallon that I will be getting soon. I have neon tetras, black skirt tetras, albino corys, a mystery snail and nerite snails, all bought from both Petco and PetSmart. You're right about the neons, they tend to stay towards the bottom, I love their color so much. The corys are so much fun to watch as they go around looking for food. The black skirts are complete food hogs! I named my mystery snail Speedy because he really is fast for a snail. I think it's hilarious the way he "hangs" onto the leaves of my fake plants, lol. I had black and dalmatian mollies to start with, but they all died. Now that you mentioned the water hardness/softness I can see why mine died. I loved them though, they all had the cutest personalities!

Without a doubt, my favorite fish is Frank the powder blue (and aggressive) dwarf gourami from petco. I also got ember tetras and platys from them. They will take back fish for donation, thankfully, as I had to get rid of all but 2 juvenile female platys due to fear of overpopulation. None were diseased or needed medication. Ember tetras are a good match for a feisty dwarf gourami as they're fast, too small to bother with, and mostly stay near the bottom. The platys get the brunt of his aggression.
@michaelfox6820

Another vote for ember tetras. They are hardy, fast, and amazing eaters. As soon as any food enters my tank, they dive-bomb it. I have them in with a betta in a 10 gallon tank. I feed the betta mainly betta pellets. If the betta doesn't get the pellet in a second, an ember will run off with it. Unfortunate because the pellets are too big for the embers to eat, so it ends up on the bottom of the tank.

Never EVER recommend live bearers, especially Endler’s, to a beginner. Ya people do it because they are easy to take care of, but make sure you tell them that they need to be prepared to have multiple spare tanks or be willing to cull hundreds of baby fish. Endler’s in particular breed faster than cockroaches. Think you can prevent that by getting all the pretty males? I hope you like watching them tear each other apart. There is more to “beginner” fish than ease of care. And why is it that the KZitem community only talks about “beginner” fish? Is it because aquarium co-op has a large stock they need to offload again?

My wife and I both love our Mystery snails. We were quite fortunate to have gotten a Giant (over 3 inches) female that we named " Peach". She became our matriarch and we are now on the 5th- 6th generation of her progeny. Our LFS is ( I think) getting a little tired of us bringing them 50-100 juvenile snails every few weeks. We average about 6-8 klutches of eggs a week and have taken to floating them on a corkboard in one of our 40 breeder tanks.

ive been a hobby fish breeder for over 30yrs. with all respect here I'm not sure which petco u refer to but in my area all the petco stores are a complete joke. petco is actually worse than petsmart as to the quality of fish and way less quantities of different types. they have sick and dead fish in every tank plus they price gouge big time compared to others. not only that but the employees at each store are not helpful as they ignore customers and avoid them at all costs. it's a shame really and I highly don't recommend anyone going there. I advise people to research first looking up reviews on fish stores before going and in most cases your individually owned stores will have quality fish. most chain stores are a joke. i do realize all areas are different but my area is central Illinois which includes 4 petco stores.

I just bought guppies at Petsmart. I didn’t have any luck. My mom used to raise fish and these are some of the ones we always had. Mine kept dying. I only have 4 out of 7 living now. She said they’ve been having problems with their breeder. I really like guppies because they like to play and they are so pretty.

Hardy beginner species (in my experience) = Giant Danios (larger tanks), White Clouds, Black Neon Tetras, Black Skirt Tetras, Serpae Tetras, Bronze Corydoras, Ancistrus (Bristlenose) and Nerite Snails.

I love dwarf gouramis. I have two tanks, each has one dwarf gourami as the centre feature. They may have similar personalities as bettas too! My powder blue gourami is curious, and will coexist with some bettas (my betta is also the curious type, but he is a little shy with that gourami around). Before he came to my tank, he was in another tank at my dads, with some angelfish, and they coexisted peacefully. My rainbow dwarf gourami on the other hand can be a little cranky with new arrivals, but is generally peaceful. I added a few juvenile platies earlier today, and they are looking good so far. They are kinda like the labyrinth version of a discus fish, and much easier to care for, not to mention much more affordable. Would recommend to anyone looking for a nice colourful centrepiece for a new community tank.

So far my balloon mollies have been doing good except, they came with ick and babies. Almost done with the ick problem though so I might keep them and they haven't killed my other fish YET.
