He’s a big begger thank you for the comment!

His name is Tony Soprano! Everybody in the reptile room has an Italian themed name! Thanks so much for the view and comment

​@@Parkbenchaquaticsnp😁

No problem, cool skinks!

Yeah, I know buddy I’m about to come back. This second job has just been taking all my free time. The only time I have to film is around midnight.

Yep. It’s an African Cichlid tank, and the number one method to keep an aggression down is to overstock. If you were to look that up. You would see it’s the most common practice. Secondly that is a 125 gallon 6 ft tank. Thanks for the view

Thank you!

She’s warming up for the right moment ha ha

@@Parkbenchaquaticsoh you can definitely tell 🧐

Hey thanks buddy!

@@Parkbenchaquatics you’re quite welcome!

Good to know!

Thanks Dennis 🤘🤙

It’s a girl, but yes she is!

@@Parkbenchaquatics oh of course, I see it now! 🤓

Hi my good friend got that particular snake from a reptile expo in northeast Pennsylvania. But I know that he plans to breed that specific animal and you can inquire about that by going to ATROX_KING92 on instagram for more information. Thanks for the view.🙏🤘

Haha food motivated

?

Thanks for the compliment. I’m sorry to hear about your fishes eye! I just recently lost a fish to eliminate disease, but it affected him a great deal

Thank you!

Hey thank you very much!

Thanks brother🤘

Hi, it’s the red eyed crocodile skink from Papua New Guinea

Hey thanks! They are my favorite species.

What kind of lizard is it?

@@Viper-ev4cnred eye crocodile skink

Thank you, I was surprised how much he likes climbing. As soon as the light turns on, he climbs to the highest perch, and stays there most of the night. 🤘

My crocodile skinks won’t eat them or the male won’t at least. I don’t normally grow out the hornworms this big, but this one was left to be ate by a skink, but never ate it so I made a video with my most aggressive eater.

Mine will only eat crickets ,small to medium mealworms and wax worms. Not even earthworms unfortunately...which are free and plentiful.😂😂😕❤️

@@kimely5311 yeah, same here. I also started a colony of Dubia roaches to eventually get free insects. Save me tons of money going to the big stores for crickets already .

Would like to grow my own roaches...but terrified they would get out ....and multiply in my house.🥺😬

@@kimely5311 the ole lady says the same thing. But they do not have extra sticky feet like a fly or something does they can’t climb glass or smooth plastic and I’ve used both. I just transferred them to five dollar large bin from Walmart. They prefer the darkness and eat and drink more often over the tank. But they can’t escape.

Better than the gecko starving to death, but that’s just the food chain

Unfortunately, the circle of life is harsh. I do find it harder to feed hornworms than meal worms because of their beautiful color but I don’t waste any creatures life here! Thank you for the comment

Agreed! Thanks for the comment!

Hey buddy, long time no talk. Hopefully we get the game soon. As far as the piranhas you want to get something around a 40 gallon breeder with one canister filter and get some long, Amazon sword or other stringy type plant with some rocks in the middle and get yourself 10 to 15 yellow bellies they do better in larger groups in prefer a planted set up to hide.

Ya thinking about getting a red and a black .and h ya bro hope to get gaming again

@@willie-rt5oq yeah I feel you you bro hit me up on ps5 we’ll talk about piranhas, and maybe playing again

Haha thanks bro. I was surprised myself lol

Hey, so I buy all of my fish from Ron’s for the most part and the fish I bought was listed as a yellow blaze z rock. Otopharynx lithobates (Zimbawe Rock) but the only difference I’ve heard using those names is when you add the German line strain, or the black orange dorsal, which I do have in that tank as well. My favorite fish! Yes, he loves the tanks, he’s starting to appreciate the animals more recently. That’s awesome about you and yours!

@@Parkbenchaquatics bro I did a filter service on my 125 a few days ago and my girlfriend caught my son play with the tank water in a bucket lol. The facial pattern on the yellow is awesome.

@@dennispeleg7843 mine has dropped his Binky in a bucket or two lol. You should look into the black orange dorsal! so it is the yellow blaze z rock but only the darkest blue’s until it gets black. Takes a special type of breeder. I like them because they take a tremendous long time to colorup and once they do, they are solid. the z rock you’re talking about is an absolute jerk, but he still really cool 😎

@@Parkbenchaquatics I'll dig into it. Id rather get the German strain where the yellow stripe is more covered over the head rather than just the dorsal. I like the sulfur head but I think the z rock stands out more

Hey, so I checked my email because I wasn’t sure and this is what it said.. Dragon Blood Reg - Wuudy Strain “groomed” I believe it was just a regular DB from that special guy I told you about it was 3 1/2 inches for 175 and the groomed I believe, means separated from other fish to avoid imperfections in the fins which is why he’s probably so aggressive now. It was supposed to be a bidded on fish, but I offered $25 more than the official starting bid asking price to just leave it off the shelf and he agreed if I bought another fish so I bought my Taiwan reef hap

@@Parkbenchaquatics wait so this special DB cost 175? 🙀

@@CichlidCharmer yeah it did. It was early on in my experience. It’s only really worth buying the fish if you’re keeping it in a harem or by himself but I put it in a normal tank. With all males made it a waste of money. I think he’s great and he’s one of the most beautiful fish but yeah, too pricey. The gentleman who sold me the fish though did say about Ron’s and that’s actually how I got put on to Ron’s. The gentleman started his breeder website using Ron’s, minus the fish that he had had gotten from Thailand. But this guy’s deal was the he’d like to only sell show fish so every fish had its own 20 gallon tank and stuff like that

Yeah, I didn’t know it at the time in the video but it actually goes dark for about five hours. At midnight it goes dark and then turns red around 6 AM but the blue last for three hours. I think it helps them get settled and then once they’re basically settled it turns the light off.

Thanks homie 🤘🙏

That’s a cool story about the Oscar! No, I recently almost adopted a one eye, 14 inch Oscar named Mr. Miyagi from a local fish store but as I got everything prepared to take him home, he was gone when I went to go pick him up. So I currently have no American cichlids.

Hey thanks for the question but I’m not sure what you mean.

Hey, no clown fish but I do have a clown squeaker Syndontis catfish they get over foot

Hey thank you so much! They are beautiful!

Fish indeed friend!

Hi, thanks for the question. It’s because that I have thousands of dollars worth of animals in the reptile room and reptiles even healthy ones can carry salmonella bacteria in their stool samples with rhem and then turn could get anybody else in the room sick so it’s best if having multiple reptiles, especially exotic ones to quarantine a species in a separate room. Because of limited space I quarantine in the same room using different supplies for the first two weeks and gloves. Secondly, I’m a smoker and nicotine is toxic to animals. I clearly wash my hands, and I don’t smoke too often, but it still is remnant on myself. That’s super cool about the bearded dragons. I’ve never owned one but I used to volunteer at a pet store when I was a kid and it was a popular choice. As far as what is next to them now is nothing the 3’ x 3’ x 18” is on its own stand an island while the rest of the room is on the other side . They were temporarily in a 18 x 18 x 18 which the original video and them being introduced to the terrarium was the smaller one if that’s what you’re talking about then on both sides of that was a pair of crocodile skinks and a leopard gecko. They were only in there because that I had to buy them before they weren’t able to get any more because they’re kind of exotic and so I had to make a temporary smaller home but because that I wanted to video the entire thing I ended up using both terrarium’s in the video. I think it’s best in general when handling reptiles to use gloves, even if you only own one. The fragrances on our bodies and hands even if you’ve washed them and disinfected them aren’t necessarily pleasant to reptiles or any wild animal so I try to come with nose spray on minimal deodorant and I wear gloves to try to make them more comfortable with me. But of course I’m not necessarily advocating. Either way everybody is allowed to choose to do with what their animals they see if it’s fit I’m just being extra cautious. This was a new company to me and I’ve been sold sick animals that killed another animal. Crocodile skinks $250 apiece not counting shipping. I ended up losing three. Plus, not counting you have to throw away all of the supplies other than hides that you can boil. Because of contamination . And clean out the tanks thoroughly and let dry. I did a video about the crocodile skinks and what’s going on with them then and what I had to do to save the one male. Anyways, I wanted to be as thorough as possible so I hope you appreciate my long answer and thank you for your very descriptive and articulate question . I hope you have a good day. P.s have you checked into panther chameleons before? The same amount of work to take care of with some really beautiful colors.

@@Parkbenchaquatics thank you for the explanation. I really appreciate it. I look forward to seeing more of your videos.

Hi his name is Tony soprano! That’s awesome you have a bearded dragon! Yes, I do believe the crickets do know their fate is coming sometimes. Thanks so much much for the comment!
