"That's a blooper we'll keep in" 😂 you have such a great sense of humor! These videos are great, and I love seeing all the new stock 😊 Thanks for sharing!
The dusky millions fish looks so similar to the Gambusias. I was always curious to see if these fish could hybridize with guppies but there seems to be an overwhelming amount of evidence to suggest they can’t.
My Corydoras Equos arrived yesterday and they’re doing great. Nice job, I’ll only be buying from you now so I don’t have to deal with diseases when purchased somewhere else.
As always great selection. I was most intrigued by the native form of Wonder Killifish. We currently have 3 pairs of Golden Wonders plus some fry we are growing out. As the old saying goes "I like the cut of their jib" when it comes to the native form.
1:19 I think with more popular fish, specially ones that are mass produced in farms, come healthier if they are from a breeder. Pandas especially since they are overbred, I would trust a breeder over a farm produced fish since the breeder manages their breeding stock better.
9:22 people should breed the wild form with the golden form, as a way to outcross the golden wonder killifish and widen the gene pool. It would help make the golden line stronger too, making them more resistant to disease and improving growth rates.
Love you guys for your ethics and info. I can’t wrap my head around fish like black chin livebearers and how they can be viable to sell. The demand must be so small. You guys have quite a few of these rarer, unique, but visually unremarkable fish. What keeps you investing in those rather than sticking to the more flashy and sellable fish?
Most folks start with the flashy stuff, but some of those eventually develop an interest in the wild-type livebearers. I'm one of those. So far, we've always sold enough of them to justify me bringing them in for me :)
I can't figure you out Dan. You are too good to be true.. very nice upfront and have a eye for top quality. Don't see many well rounded people that in the fish hobby anymore. It's all about money.
When the bleeding heart platy was developed in Hawaii, that was the name the breeder gave to its and it is known in livebearer world . Hopefully, the koi sanke swords get larger than the ones I was able to source. Common problem with swords, said to come from machine sourcing at farms. Also if your male lyretail swords aren't King Lyretails , males will be sterile and unable to breed. You do a great job with livebearer but your prices are out of mÿ range There are good livebearer breeders in US, like the guy you visited with the X. Montezumae
Most of these Koi Sanke are nice and full bodies---the breeder selects late-developing males for their broodstock, so they generally grow nice and big.
Wish I knew more about keeping south american killifish. Are they able to live in a south american biotype? Can I keep them with tetra, Apistogramma, or discus?
Some species can be housed with other peaceful fish of an appropriate size provided that they don't get out competed for food. Also, the tank should have limited water movement...they are not strong swimmers and don't fare well if they have to combat current. And they jump, so a tight fitting lid is a must. Provided the above is kept in mind, I think they can be kept with other fish.
I believe you are referring to the Dusky Millions Fish (Phalloceros caudimaculatus). Here's a link to them on our website: dansfish.com/product.detail/6231/Dusky-Millions-Fish-'Reticulatus'-Pair-(1M1F)-(Phalloceros-caudimaculatus)
They are hard to keep in stock. There is only one place I know of that breeds these, so there are a limited number. And, since they are so beautiful, demand always outstrips supply. We hope to have more available soon. Maybe someone in the USA will start breeding them and they will become more available *wink, wink, nudge, nudge*
Love the warehouse tours!
Thanks for touring with us...glad to hear you enjoyed it.

Great video being a member is awesome
love this so much
I'll be anxiously awaiting that koi snakeskin to hit the website! Great video as always

Love this kind of video.
Really love all those killifish.
Good morning!!!!!!!

I just received an order of guppies from you yesterday, their fantastic, splendid. Thank You ❤
Which guppies did you get?
As always great selection. I was most intrigued by the native form of Wonder Killifish. We currently have 3 pairs of Golden Wonders plus some fry we are growing out. As the old saying goes "I like the cut of their jib" when it comes to the native form.
I appreciate the Antiques RoadShow-esque pause at the end of each fish description.
Great selection as always.
Cheers to getting off work having a beverage and watching the new Dans Fish Video Drop
Hello, order came in great as always
100 percent happy customer.

Woot woot 🙌 TOUR TIME❤
Awesome warehouse tour!

Hobbyist breeders are our favorite source for fish. They are usually nice and healthy.

I've got hundreds of koi cobra guppies

My cherry barbs are so red 🔥 so cool pictures don't do justice

Iam looking for the micro synodonus catfish
M. batesii? We've had it in the past, but I don't have a humane, reliable source from which I can bring them in with any regularity.
Would the dwarf redtail eels do well in a 40 breeder, or is that too small long-term?
They should be fine in a 40
What's the yellow and black live bearer you have in the picture at he start?

When the blue flame apistos available?

what temperature do you keep your Apistos at?
😮
90 % off Malawi is blue there are plenty blue fish
Don’t understand sourcing the best fish you pay a lot for a “must medicate to get them right”. Why buy sick fish and say the are more expensive.
Show me where I can buy fish free of illness, and I'll gladly do it.
