Leopard Frog Pleco Lair - Hardscape Only Build - L134
Rebuilt the Leopard Frog Pleco L134 tank back to its original design, less the plants. I really think in this instance the tank looks better without the plants, which I would never thought I would say LOL

Don't you escape with a filter? 🤔
Favorite & Pandas 🐼✨
Great tank!!!! The L134 is my favorite pleco! I have 4 in growing out now… Great video
They are great , and a fun pleco to keep, thanks for watching!
The frogs are tinctorius not auratus 😉
Yes, There are over 30 types/variations of Tinctorius frogs this one is actually Azureus, I misspoke as had my Auratus in the tank next to them, but they are all types of Tinc's
Safe with Neocaradina shrimp? Wondering if they’ll eat the baby shrimp.
They would likely eat the tiniest of babies but most adults would be safe
This was a great video. It was informative and showed me how to do everything correctly. I learn by listening and watching and this was perfect. Thank you! 😊
Glad it was helpful! I appreciate the feedback Thanks!
Can you add real plants and artificial together in one aquarium?
It would depend on the lighting. If you use the Blue LED Glo type lights, like I have on this tank it would not grow plants very well at all.
Those are some pretty shrimp
Yes, and they are multiplying quickly lol
Looks great!!
Great video 👍👍👍
Thank you for watching, I appreciate it! 👍
So pretty!!!!
Thank you!! I really like these guys
@@PetsNPondsthey look great are the females pregnant?
Do u have a heater in this set up
No, they do well at our room temperatures. Thanks for watching!
Just bought a tank of vampire crabs locally and it has to be a carbon copy of this design. Same water pump and everything. Two happy customers.
Hope they are doing well for you!!
I have glow tetras in a natural tank with angel fish n i will add plants soon hopefuly
They are very colorful, enjoy!!
@@PetsNPonds thanks i do enjoy them a lot! I got them for the colors, i don't care so much for glow! If i could i would make glo-Oscars! ❤
hey I just have a question about keeping different color of crabs together since I read online says it’s the best to keep different color crabs separated but I feel like it would just look so much better. Was it okay for you to keep more than one color in the same tank and did u experience any aggression?
I have had them together before, for the short term. I believe it is fine as long as there is lots of room, others may argue that but that is my experience. I would not keep them together long term as the can potentially crossbreed and mess up the lines
Are these for display or do you have some for sale? Real nice guppy.
We have them for sale, as well. I am really liking these guys they are awesome
Great video! Tank looks great!
Thanks! It is a fun little set up
Nice to see how you bring it all together
Thanks 👍
nice fish!
Yup, was a fun order, more coming next week
Woah!!! Great to find you have a UA-cam channel!! I was in a couple months ago asking about the platinum koi guppies!! Great store, loved the racking design, super cool. Taking inspiration from that for my fish wall at home lol
Awesome! Thank you!
@@PetsNPonds we'll definitely be back soon!!
Awesome swamp guppies!
They are! Lovin those little guys
Thank you for sharing!
You're welcome!
finally a video i was searching for. Thank you!
Glad I could help! Thanks for watching
Was hoping the frog would attack u
He eventually got over it, and was happy to share his plants LOL
Don't these prefer sand?
I don't believe it makes much difference to them, they move it all around anyway gravel or sand. I think water quality is more important to them
I would like that mushroom house.
Its made by Marina iGlo if you are looking for them
today i go to buy at local shop
Enjoy, they are awesome little fish
What did you use to keep the temperature and humidity at the right levels? Also what are you using to test the water?
I just keep them at room temperature, and I have about 3/4 of the screen top closed in with plastic to keep the moisture in
Wow! Going to get some soon!!!!! Congrats for successfully breeding these...great video! keep rockin Liked and subscribed!
Thank-you, they are pretty awesome little guys
Cool! Can’t wait for ours to grow up!
They really are good looking Plecos, enjoy yours!!
Wow the contrast between the black lines and the silver body is sharp Beautiful
They are beautiful, one of my favorites
How much did the whole build cost?
I would estimate about $175-200ish
Is the filter supposed to have a small water flow coming out? Mine looks like yours and it's working but saw another video where you could see the water coming out. Mine is on high as well
There is a slight surface ripple but very little, some people take out the foam which will increase the flow
Feels like a mini golf course
You're not lying LOL : )
How do you differentiate between female and the male?
Females have rounded ventral fins where the males are fairly pointed
@@PetsNPonds Thanks! I wish I could send a photo of them here. Hopefully that the new one is a female since I see that its ventral fins are not long and pointy as the male I have. Does coloration also need to be considered?
@@deckwithmatter Males do tend to have more color but the fins are more important
Hi, great build, given me some great ideas for my fluval flex 57l paladarium conversion @pnpaquatics, what kg/litres are the bags for the hydroballs? cheers
The bags I used were 1.13kg (2.5 lbs), ..good luck with your build those Flex tanks are nice! Thanks for watching
What are the measurements of your paludarium?
(50Lx26Wx30H cm) I wouldn't build one any smaller than that for these Crabs, they seem to like the space. Thanks for watching
Surely not enough water to breakdown all the waste?
Been running several years now and its been great. The crab waste is virtually non existent and used by the plants on land. Anything in the water is taken care of by the filter, those crabs do not seen to create very much waste at all. Thanks for watching
@@PetsNPonds thanks for the reply, it's a great video! Super interested in getting some of these guys, I had red claw rabs once and they mad eloads of waste 🤔 in terms of maintenance how does it compare to a normal fish tank? Hard to find this info online so far! Thanks again!
@@cjr96 Red Claws are very messy, I have had those as well in a similar set up and they basically destroyed it within a few months. Vampires are much easier to keep and do a lot less damage, in terms of maintenance I feel its easier than a fish aquarium, partial water change once a month or so, regular filter maintenance and wipe off a little algae and thats about it
@@PetsNPonds amazing thank you! Yeah red claws are destructive! 🙃
How many days do I have to leave it on before I put in my beta fish?
Should run for at least 24hrs or more, be sure to use a water conditioner
Where does everyone get those little brushes for the substrate? Does it come with the set up or does everyone putting these together happen to have them?
I am using what Fluval calls a substrate shovel, that available from them and other companies make them as well. It has a wide end and a narrow end thats great for getting in around rocks and wood
Hi, I'm watching you from Kazakhstan. Competent presentation, useful video. Will there be a new part?
Yes, I will be doing more crab videos soon
I want to setup glo fish tank for my boys room.i think glowing fish tank would be very nice for boys..i already had everything but dont know what type of lamp you use?..red/blue/white light?
My tank has Blue LEDs over it, Good Luck with your tank!
@@PetsNPonds thanks!!
I've got 4 of these coming in 2 days, only because they were out of the gold lasers I'd ordered. They'll go in my 55g with my existing 2 sterbai, 2 paleatus, and 2 fairy corys. I'm a cory fanatic. It's a denison barb and praecox rainbows tank with a golden zebra loach (not yoyo), a hillstream loach that I haven't seen in weeks, and 3 blue zebra angelfish. It's a little overstocked but not crowded, and I run 2 seachem tidal 110s packed with just matrix bio media, so the water is always just fine. Although my golden zebra loach has skinny loach syndrome which I've dosed paraguard and he seems to be coming around. His color is better and he's not hiding all the time anymore. I did do a great job of creating a LOT of natural hiding places
Nice bunch of Corys you have, good luck with your tank, sounds like a nice set up
@PNP Aquatics thank you...I really surprised myself with my scape on this one...I'm horrible at that
Where can I order some ???
Sorry we cannot ship the Crabs
mine can climb the filter wire so i had to put a mesh on top
Mine climb the plants often, so the cover is neccessary
Does it need bubbles I heard pet o said they can die with to much oxygen?
there should be some areation , either through surface agitation, or an air pump
I keep a lot of inverts/reptiles but I wanted to get into vampire crabs and I searched it and came across one of your videos from about 2 years ago watched it and loved it, watched your other one from about a year ago as well then came across this masterpiece! I hope this blows up like it should. Amazing videos I hope to see many more! ❤❤
Thank you so much, I really appreciate it!!
For vampire crabs, does the water need to be changed or is it enough to put a filter?
I do partial 50% water changes every 2 weeks, even with a filter
@@PetsNPonds Thanks you, for answer
Nice video! What kind of filter is that?
Thanks, the filter is an Aquael Mikro Plus
damn that's good😵
Thanks, I appreciate it!
