I knowingly added parasites to my aquarium! (Its not what it seems!)

In this video, I'm doing something that might seem counterintuitive to many aquascape enthusiasts. I'm knowingly adding parasites to my aquarium. But before you think I've lost my mind, let me explain that it's not what it seems. The fish we are introducing today have a parasite but not in the standard sense. Whether you have a nano aquarium or a fully planted aquarium these little tetra will normally get on well. We have lost a few aquarium plants in this fish tank recently but we explain all of that in the video.
