I Gave Away My Fish ... Major Changes to My Aquariums

  • Today's video was definitely bittersweet. I gave away over 50 fish in total over the past month or so. My electric blue acaras have been growing and I had to find a solution. I also had so much breeding in my shell dweller tank that it was starting to become overcrowded.
    Although it was sad to see them go, it does allow for some of my big projects to start in my fish room with all of my aquariums. I have huge plans and big tanks to come, and I'll be showing first looks and behind the scenes of this whole process for Members, which you can join by clicking the link below.

    Sometimes for discus, the lowest fish in the pecking order will not eat and eventually die from stress/starvation. It’s unfortunate but fairly common.

    I'm thinking during the next Cichlid Bros long overdue sit-down , amongst the many pressing matter's that always get sorted out perhaps the best decision to make is to finally get the RO/DI 75gpd unit & if you have the guy's from BRS agree that you show some Cichlid Bros Love during the awesome install video 💙 which is hard to imagine the opposite, then the only thing better than having perfectly pure water to be remineralized to the specific needs of your fish or even the occasional pitcher of Kool-Aid 🤤 or a gallon of light roast Cold press 😚 is to get it for free !!!
