Building a GOLDFISH WALL (Also RIP Num Nums)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 сер 2024
- We are very very close now to having this place fish ready. A few more things need to be addressed and set up and this place will be ready to accept fish. Also, RIP Num Nums. I do not know why these redcaps are so sensitive and die so easily. I hope the rest make it out okay but at this point, I honestly don't know.

No NUM NUMS died ... He was one of my Favorite
Noo num num
Bro scammed kids to donate hundreds for a lil' fish that died weeks after.

AYO THAT POPSICLE BREAK WAS A LITTLE TOO LONG 🫣🤔🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨

"Do not plug power strips or other surge protectors into one surge protector and ensure the devices you have plugged in do not exceed the wattage capacity. An overloaded protector fails to stop a power surge that can ruin your electronics or even cause fires" Watch your current or else all that work will be flames
No cap
I had a power strip(2) plugged into a power strip(1)and a portable ac unit plugged into power strip(1)
Every outlet in use 24/7
The ac started shutting on and off randomly so I unplugged it to check it out. The ac was asking for more power than was available, melted the face off that outlet.
Another time my aquarium light blew up and instead of just tripping the power strip it was on, it tripped the breaker for the whole room
Came back to the whole fish room without power for who knows how long
(Edit: I now run 7outlet power strips with surge protectors built in, plugged only into the wall outlet. When I have to use household extension cords I plug them directly into wall and wrap extra cord up in a bundle left in the open unobstructed, on laminate floor to avoid risks of overheating and fire. 👍) I know I ranted, can’t help but share safety tips.
Seriously 😅
Luke’s doing such a great job with the basement. He deserves multiple popsicle breaks 😊
Give Luke his popsicle breaks!
He deserves 999999⁹⁹⁹⁹⁹⁹⁹⁹
Congratulations on 2M Luke! Maybe Num Nums just wanted to be there for the milestone before passing, RIP Num Nums
Dude you literally built yourself a show room for your fish! That's awesome!
As someone who has lifted one of those 75 gallon tanks by myself not to long ago.... thats impressive. Alots of bulk to carry lol
By the way, I found your channel from the house buying content and have stayed watching because of the basement build out! I have reef tank and drool over fish rooms like that. Probably one of the few thats not here for the goldfish content. Cant wait for the fish breeding building to be restored!
11:02 Suggestion: Please center the four tank sets on the wall with space on the ends for access. Mostly, put more space between the tanks of water and your electrical panel. This will keep splashes and corrosion issues farther away and for service of the panel if needed (since this is early in your build, that is a cautious move). In an emergency, you won't have time to move a set of tanks if needed. Might even be an electrical code in your area about distance from objects.
Also, I would suggest to not place a tank under the window due to temperature changes, and ease of access if you need to pump water outside/light issues/etc.
I love your long form content ❤
Same 😁
I know these videos don't get as many views as the shorts but I just want you to know that I love these Luke, I click on the vlogs the second I'm free after I get the notification. I love seeing you build your business, and most of all, I love goldfish.
Now you need to run power drops from the ceiling so god forbid you have a catastrophic flood you will still have power. Love all this content! Excited for what’s next!
That wall will look so great full of fish!!
Everything is coming together so nicely!! If you are open to suggestions, I’d say (if possible) consider adding wheels to the bottom of the tubs so that it can be easier to move around when/if necessary once they’re full.
RIP Num nums. I know you had the best life with Luke while you could. No better caretaker than him. Swim peacefully over the rainbow bridge.❤
You mean gold no LGBTQ bridge
@@Kings_Goldiesbro what

Looks great Luke! I think your air supply PVC is supposed to go all the way around the room in a loop or back track down the same wall to form a loop that way.
I suggest that you keep all the electrical lines off the floor and find a way to attach them on the wall behind the tanks. Also don't bring in any of those sick goldfish into the fishroom once it is running since disease can easily spread through droplets and water vapor in an enclosed space, especially if you have splashes from sponge filters. You would'nt want to start out having every tank already infected from the get go. Have a few quarantine tanks in a different room or have other tanks relatively farther away from the main group, and equip them with tight lids and a separate waterchange system.
Once I get my permanent home, I plan on doing my own fish room attached to the house. So this gives me a lot of great ideas. I would have never thought of the long tube supplying air to all the tanks like that
I love your videos, can't wait to see the fish !
Rest in place Num Nums , we will always remember you 🐠🐟
I love just watching a bunch of your vids. I love fishkeeping, and this is my go to channel for 10 minutes of large fish, insane setups, and advice.
Glad you like them!
@@lukesgoldies Also, just wondering, do you have any advice on cycling your tank when you already put a fish in? Thanks!
Watch your back Luke, as someone who's slipped a disk at a young age, I can assure you it's really unpleasant. Also, I've kept red caps unsuccessfully sooooo many times. They are probably the hardest fancy type to keep. Any temptature change any levels of stress, a change of food, and they pass. I've only found success with one I still own today, he lives alone though and need constant monitoring.
All of your hard work will pay off, Lucas!! 🤗
I'm happy for you! I'm excited to see your progress worth your fish basement. I hope to see fishies soon!
Glad to see the fish room is coming together It is definitely giving me ideas of how to set my next fish room up better. In my experience a lot of the Petco PetSmart arandas and red caps and other goldfish don't always do the best and I don't know if it's poor genetics or just the conditions they're in when they're shipped from the supplier to the store and then being in a stressful store environment then they just become weak over time and generally die quickly that's been my experience anyway
Be careful with power strips, they can be dangerous if overloaded and they can catch fire D: . Loving the fish room
I hope there are plans to get the power cords off the ground. Messy electrical is bad news. I had a paint scrapper touch an exposed extension cord. It's pretty scary seeing sparks flying. On a positive note, your ambition is a positive influence on so many.
excited for the future. in the future you should try keeping the native fish and crayfish on your property in a tank
Hi Luke. Why not hook the power strips to the wall and clip the cable to the wall like the PVC pipes. That way you can reach them better and also no risk of water getting into them in case of water spills.
Glad to see your engineering knowledge in action 😊 lucky goldfish under such good care
luke will do anything for his fishes! also rip little num nums he will always be in this channel and in out hearts!
i used to just be here for the silly fish shorts but honestly im loving seeing the progress, great job man i cant wait to see fish there!!!
Rip num nums you will be in everyone’s heart have a good time in fish heaven
1:03 My OCD senses are tingling~~ Just a suggestion, cut a piece of PVC pipe (or cardboard tube) in less than half (so it fits over the pipe to be drilled). Place on pipe to be drilled and rotate it until it rests against the wall on one side. Mark on cut section where you want the pipe drilled. Even line can be made by placing cut pipe on table, lay a marker flat on table, then run marker down cut section which would be parallel to the table. Saves time in setting up drill points for each station.
Another suggestion would be to offset every other valve by a 45 degree angle so the valve levers would not be in line, in case you have to turn them in opposite directions (facing each other). Also, offsetting would make counting valve number easier in a blind setting where you might have several valves in a row, but easier to reach back without getting on a ladder or other item to better see valves.
The water softener may be killing those fish. Since you have well water, you are most likely using water softener salt. It has additives to help lower corrosion in pipes. I was keeping a blue gill, and it died when I put it in water from the tap. You need conditioner in the water even though it doesn't have chlorine it still has other things that are bad for fish.
Hats off to your dedication and hardwork to get this setup Luke!!
love your vids your doing a great job with the fish basement keep up the good work
The wall looks amazing.😊
Rest in peace, num-nums, forever, loved.
Speaking of these red goldfish, being really sensitive and unable to survive anything, we have a similar problem, with at least in my experience on the saltwater side of things with blue green chromas. They seem to be like super delicate. I had a whole school of six of them survive, only a couple of months even with a perfect system.
I asked the shop staff and they said that they have a high DOA rate.
I just don’t like to buy fish, no matter how pretty if they’re just too sensitive and not gonna buy it because of the two sensitive to be a pet maybe it shouldn’t be a pet.
Love the progress in the fish basement but you should add hooks for the extension cord so there not on the ground just in case for a flooding
Putting extension cords on extension cords is a terrible fire hazard!! Be safe, Luke! 4:44
Also I love your videos so much, you even inspired me to set up a communal tank with a betta and a few Cory catfish
You should get a big tank 180+ gallons at the end of the 75 gallon wall. Put all your priceless and show fish in there
This is such a dream. I’m so excited I get to follow along and watch this
You should use one of those tanks for native fish and stuff from the pond. That would be really cool.
Love your videos can't wait for the end results.
This is gonna look so cool once it’s full of fish. I have one 75 gallon and can barely move it empty. 😅 Good job.
Now THIS is a "build the wall" campaign I can get behind!
Can you do a video about your future goals as a goldfish breeder? Are you aiming for show quality fish, new varieties, a supplier of pet quality ranchu etc. Would love to know more.
Luke is just awesome. He deserves an infinite amount of popsicle breaks.
I am a young canadien breeder in canada and you are my idol Luke continue your video
Rest in peace Num Nums.. You were a legend and always will be.
I can see you doing work on that lake to house koi fish!
WOAH!!!! More fish tanks! Its amazing to see you transform your basement for your love of goldfish :D
Also R.I.P. Nums and others.
Might be a little late, but it would be super easy to just run some electrical cord along the wall, and put some nice looking electrical boxes at the location of each tank. One end could even just have a plug if you want to just plug it into an existing box.
Better option would be to add the line to your electrical panel, but ya.
Would remove the huge amount of power strips, you could put GFI plugs in it (like your bathroom) so any shorts caused by water would just trip the one tank, and not the whole line shutting down all the tanks power.
Would look clean, and professional, and shouldn't take more than a few hours, likely less than 100$, using just a pair of wire cutters, your drill, and your screw driver.
I'm very happy to be going with you on the journey to make your business better and grow. Love vids. Very amusing.
R.I.P Num Nums❤🐠
We always put a strip of board on half of the stairs and slid the tanks down with one person at the top and one person at the bottom. We were lazy. 😂
This is looking great man.
I’m not an electrician but I thought I heard somewhere daisychaining power strips like that is dangerous. Maybe it’s a myth though 🤷♂️
Rip num nums
your business is growing in front of our eyes luke, you got this.
You mentioned it! It is genetics and over breeding. Many lineages contain very sensitive and weak fish. Literally stress from preexisting conditions and/or sudden future changes kills them! Some fish can look just fine for days, months, suddenly pass. No change in their care from that time.. Thank you for being a responsible and caring breeder! Always enjoy your content.
Ohmmm, I am one with the fish….Luke, they follow you like little puppies. Clearly, they like the way you care for them… though you deserve a popsicle break, but just too serious & a little awkward… leave that up to a lady! I loved your little comment about “yesterday night!” And what a great example of a great healthy body. I love, love it!
Can't wait to see this basement finished
Num Nums was a legendary goldfish, a goldfish to end all goldfish. The brute Jill ran through them, and although Num Nums survived long, he couldn't take it
WHAT A GORGEOUS PROPERTY!!
I love your content and your choice to focus on the basement for me its the better one! Keep up the good work! Im a 19 years old portuguese kid and you are one off my role model! Thank you!
And im gonna have YUAN BAOS AT MY OWN IN THE FUTURE!!!
lol I have the same Outshine Posicles.
Me, looking at all those tanks: "That's a sure way to mess up your back."
Luke: PoWeRs ThRoUgH
Ive never had luck with any red cap orandas. They’re my favorite breed too.
I can tell those are Hart shelves. Make sure the make a bracket between the front and back of the shelf. If not the tanks will fall through with all the weight! I have the same shelves for my 40 gallon tanks. Also the background music is great. What is the name of it? Thank you!
Awesome keep it up Man😎🤙
congrats on 2M subs! also rip num nums 🙏
Beautiful 👍💯👋
Do you sell fish 🐠🐟
I am really excited to see all the fish in the basement.
Also will you bring nubbins coffin/cup with you?
Luke! I have a question for you since you guys get a lot of snow you might have a power outage do you have have any generators to keep everything running?
So cool to see you build your dream
Woww all that work ! Wish I could’ve been there to help out! That looks hella tiring. But at least you got it done 🎉 awesome
this feels like when you unlock the cellar in stardew valley and discover you can min max the space with more casks
RIP num nums. Either they could have been poorly bred or they could be having some internal parasites.
You should move the red caps with gizmo and the others
keep posting Luke! keep posting. doing great!!!
Goodbye num nums😢
We will always remember you
Rip he will be remembered for all eternity 😢
“Two person lift”
Luke: fine, I’ll do it myself
Dang rest in peace Num Nums you will always be in our hearts
Ngl I would be an employee for free lol
I love your videos luke keep growing brother❤
Looks great man! where do you get those racks?
The mic beard clip is the best idea ever!
I see that mike in the beard, also love the content. Keep up the good work!
10:25 What is your floor made from? Is it wood, tile, or composite material? If it is tile, or other non-giving material, you should place something under the feet of the stands to avoid pressure points and general rust prevention. Those metal stands may have a burr where they were cut and make a pressure point that would crack/shatter tile or similar material once the massive amount of weigh is put on them.
I was so concerned for you safety when u was moving those tanks
we both got fish tanks on the same day
Love these vlogs!
NOO num bums Rest In Peace i just found out that one of my fishes barely died too 💔
Did you rake the rocks in your window tank? It looks so nice with those lines.
Surry but aren't you supposed to have your elec cords up off the ground, with drip curve in them?
thanks for giving us the incredible content. Really loving it. Could you also switch to better resolutions cams please.
Watching this with my son, and he says 'wow that guys a human forklift' as you took all the tanks downstairs!
I love your content ❤
WE WILL MISS YOU NUM NUMS❤️❤️
TURTLES TURTLES TURTLES - when are they coming?!?! Tear down that ramshackle hatchery, otherwise it'll turn into a money sink and give you nothing but problems. I'd go for one of those container houses or a greenhouse to put in its place, once your fish basement is set up and running.
Using you for body mirroring! I only have two aquariums to move and work on today, but I gotta drain one and clean some subpar substrate out of it which I'm not looking forward to.
