- Josh from Ohio Fish Rescue brought me down a 250gallon sump I bought off of him. While here, he surprised me with a new predator fish for my birthday!
Aww...Joshys so nice 👌 HAPPY BIRTHDAY Stephen 🎂 🥳 🎉 🎈
Yes! Thank you!
Happy Birthday Stephen 🎂🍺🎉🍻
Thank you kindly
Awesome 💪💪
You guys rock! Thanks so much Price family :)
Friends helping friends. 👍
Happy Birthday 🎂
I believe making your garage a fish room would be a great idea . 👍
Thank you 🤗
@@SCAquatics You welcome. Hope you had a great day.👍
Happy Birthday. Best wishes from the UK 😊
Thanks so much! 😊
Happy Bday Stephen
Thank you!
Wow, I am behind on keeping up! Nice puffer!
Happy Belated Birthday!
Thank you so much 😀
cool new tank -- jealous!!!
thanks!
72x36x24... knock out the smaller weir, make a sump out of the smaller section, add your land idea with a wrap around Beach from one corner, around the back to the bigger land area over the sump. Mudskippers, Newt's, frogs... maybe some mollies for color. Few plants here and there. Dabble with some brackish species. Sounds fun to me!
Could be a fun project!
I think that tank would be perfect for a turtle, that would also make it so you dont have to worry about a lid.
it would be. I've never had turtles before. May have to look into it
Hi a late happy birthday.dont you just love O F R, you can feel the love they have for you .so glad your getting up and running agin .stay fishie my friend
Yes! Thank you!
Fahaka, nice!
:)
Definitely would be an amazing turtle tank 🐢
Could be!
I like The land idea
toying with the idea!
Fast schooling fish are your best bet with fahaka. I have neons with mine. Had Harlequin rasbora in there too but he eventually caught them. Danios very well may work.
Yeah, thats why I was thinking of the giant danio. They swim non stop and are fast....
That would make a pretty awesome turtle tank and there are so many who need homes. OTR? Ohio turtle rescue ? 😂🤣
haha maybe you're onto something!
Wow !! Congrats too you
Thank you!!
Put the puffer in the new sump tank, you will have it ready by the time he gets big :)
thats probably the plan!
Great tank / sump the small side of the sump would set up as natural filter with plants kinda like aquaponics letting the water flow into the larger section coming over like a waterfall 👍🏼
Theres a few ideas im playing with, Love a water fall idea
Wow, my sump looks great in your garage.....lol. You guys are killing me! You might get away with 4 gussets in the corners and one 20 inch piece across the center as opposed to a full top....or you can let me have it back...HAHAHAHAHA
Joe joe joe.... lol. I was after it way before you! I wanted to originally before I got the 200 cube. Yeah i'm thinking of getting a couple smaller pieces to basically make a rim/gusset the outside edges. Its crazy how expensive it gets for a solid sheet that big.
@@SCAquatics Yes, acyrlic has gone up big time in the last year due to covid and snez guards needed everywhere.
Zak the aquarium guy had a Fahaka i helped him name Sunshine. Sadly she passed however she tanked with guppies and really did not bother at all. She was well fed!
sad to hear but awesome about the guppies!
I think the divider makes it a really awesome paludarium tank. Are you familiar with vampire crabs?
Not crazy popular in the hobby, but they come in really cool colors like bright red, or purple and orange. It could look really cool once it's overgrown with plants. Could be really unique if you did that and a jungle-style aquascape in the water section
Yeah, Oddball Aquatics has some vampire crabs. Im thinking 1/3 land/water tank would be pretty cool!
While it’s tiny and a baby put a predator of your choice, Ornate Birchir go well with Fahaka..
You could do a land side and a water side and keep Turtles in there
its an idea!
I knew it was a fahaka as soon as I seen it! I love those! Mine ended up killing some of my tiger barbs bc of the space. I have a spiny eel and river shrimp and small rasbora's with him now just fine. I think space is the most important thing bc they are open water fish
I would try to keep fish in with him from the start though. Mine didn't touch any fish until around 5-6"
Thanks! Will do
Great video.
My unqualified opinion is giant gouramis get too big for this.
I wonder again without experience what would 50/giant danios be like.
They are active schoalers pretty and possibly confusimg enough to keep the vehahaka uninterested.
My .02$ hope whatever you choose os the best answer!
Much respect.
I didnt mention giant gouramis, giant danios is what I was talking about. I think they are fast enough the fahaka will leave them alone. Thanks for the input Lion!
Oh shoots I must have misunderstood.
My bad.
Giant danios is a great idea!
Lalala~
Much rawrspect.
That is freaking awesome man!!!!
thanks!
Garage Fish room all the way
Its probably gonna have to happen now lol
I kept giant danios with my fahaka successfully for a year or so.but eventually I removed them because they were stressing him out they never sit still LOL which makes them perfect tankmates for a fahaka. Plus danios prefer cooler water where the fahaka really likes it around 78 to 80°... But it worked.
Thanks for the info. What size was the fahaka when you kept the giant danios with him?
@@SCAquatics about 8 to nine inches I put them in when he was five inches. I've tried tiger barbs that didn't work, I had a red tail shark I didn't really know what to do with at one time I tried and found that anything with a bright tail or bright colors he will go after and hunt and stalk non-stop until he either gets it or you take it out. And with his bite it usually only takes one bite to mortally wound whatever it bites. The worst part is mine doesn't even eat fish so he just kills it to kill it for sport... You do have the perfect size to start trying though I'm waited too long.(5inches).. I got mine that small too. Seymour the fahaka about 10 inches now..
Large gobie tank if you want to do a land mass.
good idea!
Feed that little puffer live food, and put a larger tank mate in there right away so he learns to swim with other fish. I have 6 pea puffer's with a bunch of Platty's that have live fry as you know. They do not eat the fry. I wish they did eat the fry. Want some free Platty's??? Seriously need to get rid of about 50 Platty's.
Thanks for the tips!
I would go with cull guppies
Its a good idea. Current culls go to the axolotls but I can divide them up
So you got a sump? For a tank?
Its a sump, turning into a tank
You can try turtles!
its on the idea list
🔥🔥🙂👍❤💯
:)
Hey man would I be able to commission you to build a couple steel stands in the future or could you point me in the direction of someone/company who can??
what size tanks and where are you located? I only do stands that are local/near me for pickup/delivery. I don't mess with trying to ship hundreds of pounds of steel lol
@@SCAquatics I would pick them up. The tanks are 4' x 2.5' and 5' x 2.5'. I want them 12-18" tall. Thank you
@@SCAquatics heath ohio. And they are 2 feet tall if that matters. But they are fiberglass ponds with a glass viewing panel if that matters
@@shadeaquaticbreeder2914 let me know the exact height you’d want. That height range difference is probably a couple hundred dollars in steel.
@@SCAquatics okay. I want 12"
It would be great for turtles, and maybe find some fish that the turtles won't eat.
its a good idea!
