    Look at the middle mudskipper, it looks like its screaming in rage trying to get the worm or in shock that thinks its floating. 😂

    Enjoyed the mudskippers and puffer eating. Also learning from ALL your talkings-teachings. As an Ex HS Science Teacher of 32 years, I still learn new things from you on every video. I know we all learn differently and very difficult to attempt to please all viewers on Social Media. To the viewers that have committed on too much talking??, kindly allow the viewers that want to hear, please allow us to listen to him without so much criticisms-and kindly and non rudely to you on my part-a honest thank you. I personally enjoy your talkings, teachings and thoughts during each video. Keep up the excellent work. I do know the effort, time any money it costs you to allow the viewers to watch, learn and enjoy the critters at no charge. Keep the videos coming that are possible -especially the ones you, I guess to some, you talk. Just be you-it is your channel. Thank you for the excellent work in all fish keeping areas and all information given in each video. Have a blessed day.

    Thanks for this great video! I have some of these guys coming and I was having a hard time finding a video that showed the different foods they can be fed until I came across this one. If you don't mind I have a few questions: 1. How much do you feed and how often per day? 2. Have you heard of or tried feeding black soldier fly larvae? 3. Do they need supplemental vitamins? 4. How do you clean their tank of waste? Obviously the water portion can be cleaned using a gravel cleaner but how is the beach area kept clean? Thanks again for the videos. They are awesome!
    Edit: One more question... What is the main food that you give them? Is it bloodworms?

  • @shrisheel

    How about adding a freshwater flounder aka a hogchoker. They are actually brackish fish and would be too big to become food. They do need a 50 gallon tank tho. They make very interesting pets as they like to stick to the sand bed and bury themselves.

    • @TazawaTanks
      @TazawaTanks  5 років тому +2

      ELR I think that they need to build burrows in mud to breed. They won’t be able to do that in this setup. I’m not sure how to determine male from female. I’m going to assume that the larger, more colorful ones would be males. They may be too young to tell.
