Teacher:what are you doing
Me:studying how to take over the world with guppies
Teacher:takes off mask and reveals Michaels butiful face and claps
Bwhahahahhaha🤣🤣😉
I think you did great. Keeping that camera steal the way you did is something many people don't consider. I appreciate you keeping it still. It makes watching the fish look normal while you're teaching. Preciate it. And you know bloopers are always a hit!
Thanks! And thanks for watching!
Thanks a lot 😃it has been so helpful. My guppies had fries today morning. Love from India
Large, medium or small frie?
Guppys are the horniest fish it's easy to breed them.
+leetlebob for some, yup
hey Michael russell amateur fish owner professional friend nice to meet you👍👌🙏 i enjoyed your video thanks was very useful
Same here!
But most people will pay for a good looking guppy.
Haha 100%
I find it much harder to not breed guppies, they are the bunnies of the aquatic world.
this is very true!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Robert Larsen they are the bunnies of the aquarium world
This is true!
My guppy had 12 fry today! The father is a red snakeskin and the mother is a yellow girl. Can't wait to watch them grow up!
ME too Bob! Maybe you can paint a pretty picture of them?!
Java moss is we’re it’s at.
deffinatly nice looking guppies!!!!!!👍🖒👏
Thanks!
those black guppies look really nice!
Thanks! They are coming along nicely!
I'm JUST getting into the guppy thing so I thought your video was pretty helpful for me thank you.
Thanks Gayle! Check you www.Michaelsfishroom.com for some great guppies!
@@MichaelsFishRoom thanks for the link to your page, I checked it out & right now I can't afford
anything till I get the supplies I need to get my 55 up & running, I have a FEW guppies right now
that I was lucky to get & would like to get another type, BUT I'd like to know if I could mix what
I have with another type? don't know the breed of guppies I have but they pretty small (mute guppies?)

Thanks! What did you like the most?
subbed! love the content!
Thanks! Welcome to the funny fish guy channel!
Thanks a lot it helpful
Glad it helped
I set up a 40 gallon breeder to give breeding guppies a try. I put 3 males and 8 females in and planted it very heavy with various plants. I just noticed one baby in the tank but that is it. I guess the others didn't hide well enough to avoid getting eaten. I searched the local fish stores for java moss but no luck so I ordered some from amazon along with some frog bit floating plants. Hopefully my plants will continue to grow in and I'll have a better survival rate in the future
Good luck! I also use floating water sprite for guppies
I love this one .
Me too!
I loved your energy and positivity in this video. Thanks for making this vid btw because it helped me and a ton of others out a lot 😄

WANNA KNOW MY SECRET TO BREEDING GUPPIES. ? MUSIC PLAYS*
+Sri Dewa Hamza WHY ARE YOU YELLING?
yea seriously you hurt my eyes with your yelling
Thank u very very much
You're welcome!
Loved the video. Not my first one but I did subscribe today. Totally agree with the philosophy, from the cycle of life to alternate living quarters for the fish.
Of particular interest was the Java Moss and sponge filter. I'm getting in some dwarf sag this week to plant in my 40 breeder and 10g Marina. The 10g will be for guppies. Both have Seachem Flourite black stone. Seeing this video makes me think Java Moss is way better. Not sure what to make of that yet.
Java moss is in all my live bearer tanks, for a good reason!
Your guppies are so beauty
Thanks!
superb job mike
Thanks!
Great video as always
Thanks Bigjayinga!
Oh it's a good idea
Yes
good video keep up the good work
Thanks Owen.
Nice info bro, keep it up!
Thanks!
Great video sir
Thank you sir!
I like your honest view on culling as you explained it far better than others. I had an incident with my very first batch of fry and as I was desperately trying catch them from the main tank to move them to the nursery, I wasn’t quick enough and to my horror, had to watch 1 of them get eaten. Some might call me a snowflake it taught me that I am not cut out to use them as feeders. So my method is to let nature deal with it so what I don’t see I don’t worry about.
The thing that gets my goat is those that deliberately kill just because they don’t like the colour or they are not completely perfect. As you and I know, provided their are no health related problems, the public will still buy them because they just want a pet Guppy and in my experience, couldn’t care less whether the colouring or size is the be all and end all of life.
I have a horrific story of advice that was given to me by a breeder that I will share in a different post because this one is long enough already, of what I should do with a baby Guppy that had an injury to his spine and they’re proud, horrific way of killing it. That particular Guppy is now perfectly fine as the injury disappeared but if I had gone ahead with his solution, I don’t think I would never have forgiven myself.
Culls are how I started my Mutt guppies!
Michael's Fish Room I hear you 😉 as I know it has to happen although my approach is obviously different 🙂 plus I respect the way you do things going on how you talk about it in the video. I bet you have never told an owner/new breeder with a huge grin on your face, to fatten up a perfectly fine Guppy with lots of protein for a month or so to make it as big as possible and shove it in deliberately terrified to a huge predator?
It’s a family show here so I won’t repeat as to what was my reply.
BEST VID I LIKE SUBED AND TURNED ON NOTUFACATIONS
Thanks!
First video I’ve ever watched of you, ngl the intro took me off guard and I’m not sure how I feel about it because you’re actually chill 🤣
Feel about what?
@@MichaelsFishRoom the intro was beautiful lmao 😂 I’m just joking
@@MichaelsFishRoom just being a meme don’t mind me
@@MichaelsFishRoom (you’re really chill I just thought the intro to the video was funny from the way you looked at the camera and said it) “want to know my secret to breeding guppies 😏😏😏😏😏😏😏” lmaooooo
And awesome video
Thanks!
Love your profile
Thanks
Would love to see a video about how you setup your plumbing system.
Look in my videos, you’ll find it!

You're Welcome!
Great information, I'll send you an email soon! I have a 29 gallon and would like to add some nice guppies! I love those black panda's, I have never seen them before! Now I know what to do with the few I have that are somewhat deformed! :-)
Thanks for watching!

+Steve Williams you do that!
I’m taking my first shot at breeding guppies now
Good luck!
muito bom
Thanks!
Wow that's a oldie
But Goodie!
Subbed
Welcome and thanks!
Ok
I breed guppies in 5g and 8g tanks or buckets. Once I have established enough algae and plants i no longer do regular water changes. I remove the males once the females are pregnant and put them in 1g jars and 2.5g tanks. I want a 55g to keep my males in, hopefully soon. I have very fast growth rates and hardly ever lose any and their color is magnificent. My PH is 7.8 and i keep the tanks around 76deg. I feed them flakes 3 times a day and brine shrimp 3 times a week. I keep them with cherry or algae shrimp to clean up after them and they are also breeding very well.
I always found smaller more frequent feedings result in faster growth. If i could feed 5 times a day i would but its just too much to manage.
Nice! But why a 55, harder to catch them!
@@MichaelsFishRoom As a display tank mainly. I want to get some more 5g tanks for the breeding males so i dont have to use the jars anymore lol. I'd prefer to use all 10g but the 5g are more available and significantly cheaper for me. Eventually i want to get rid of the my current setup and build 10g tanks and shelving for them all.
I know this video is a few years old but I have just discovered the channel. When you said $4 per gallon I almost fell of my seat!! I have searched everywhere but the cheapest tank I can find in Australia right now works out to be roughly $2 per litre. (roughly $8usd per gallon, or $1.50 USD per 0.44 gallon) 😭 I just spent $200 AUD on a 100 litre tank (26 gallon) and that was off of ebay...
From a retail store you are looking at $400-$1000 for the exact same setup, even buying second hand the prices are insane.
WOW! Thanks for watching!
If you're breeding for profit just use 5 gallon buckets made for food with a sponge filter. I'm from America but I used to do that because I used to be super broke 😂💪
great vid!
Thanks Ethan!
Great video! I really like how you have your tank setup. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Thanks for watching! Email me if you have any questions!
Wow you’re south jersey I live in Cumberland county Cedarville
Ha...I should have read this first! I go to the JErsey Shore Aquarium Society, Bucks County Aquarium Society and sometimes to the Delaware County Aquarium Society.
if ur in vancouver might buy and start breeding guppies
Nope....NJ, USA!
Bootleg nah your awesome
Huh?
Good morning Michael. How are you. Lots of love from India.
Hiya!
Michael, great video as usual. Question. Are those 20 long aquariums in the beginning part of the video on the left? And if so, what type of top do you use?
+Irishvenom1 Sorry Irish, I don't know what "video on the left" you are talking about. But to answer your question about the top....one doesn't have. Kid and the other is too big, but I had it laying around.
My tiger Endlers(bought 2.2) both dropped same day then 3-4 weeks later they dropped ALOT(20 each) on the same day
Nice!
good thing...cycle of life
yup!
That intro....😆😆😆
But good video tho
LOL, thanks!
can you do a video on how you do your water changes
It is all automatic. You can see some of it here ua-cam.com/users/edit?o=U&video_id=hybauGggUWc
great video. I'm still jealous of though blue grass guppues. if you ever decide to ship I want a trio!
As soon as it get's warmer I will try it! Where are you? Email me at michaelsfishroom@gmail.com.
Michael's Fish Room I'm in PA
What part, I am in NJ.
Michael's Fish Room western, about an hour south of Pittsburgh
Yeah, that is too far to meet! Maybe in a month it will be warm enough to ship!
I need to get a 5 gallon tank set up to pull the mother but I still get a decent amount of fry just letting my 20 gallon do its thing. I do have a decent amount of females and I have them breeding in softer water. My fathers are yellow or red tiger endlers (mostly yellows gotta thin out the yellows a bit) and the mothers are yellow cobra tail guppies
Cool
7$ per endler at my lfs had 1 fry because community ate the others lol. Put the most Prego guppy in a breeder box so.. once she has her fry most should live. Hopefully
Good luck
Wow technical and philosophical answers. Where do you keep the Oscar that you feed the fish to be culled to?
In a 90 under Chewies tank.
Thanks.
Thanks for the content. I recently got two different male guppys one from a Petco and another from a pet smart. The tank from petco said assorted fancy males and the tank from petsmart was named tuxedo male. My question here is should I get two females for them in the same tank? And what type of females best for them.... am a bit lost because I have two different males and am interested in breeding them.
I if you get females, get at least 5. It doesn’t matter where you get them, those never breed true.
What treatment do you use when you quarantine them?
Great video & fantastic Guppies & Platies there mate!
I use the General Cure, ick X and em erythromycin treatment.
Michael's Fish Room thanks mate!
Sure thing! Good luck
Would you be able to sell some of those blue grass guppies? They look awesome!
Nope...all gone for now. Check out www.michaelsfishroom.com for my available stock
Nice care info but I have a quick question, I’m maybe getting a guppy breeding tank next week and I want to know what is a better substrate sand or gravel. I think sand cause it’s more softer and the guppy fry will be sitting on very soft sand, but gravel is hard and it will be stressing I think for the guppys. So I want to hear your opinion on what’s better
Neither ...I like bare bottom for breeding tank.
Why?
It’s a breeding tank, keeping it cleaning it will be easier?
I was yelling cost effective but you didn't hear me anyways lol
Oh, that was you? LOL
Michael please see this... what are you using for the floating plants on top? I am a new hobbyist here trying to put together a set up.
Java Moss or Water Wisteria
My mutts bred and there are maybe 3 males of the original fry drop (about 10 fish). One resembles leopard tail, one some weird red/brown colour with blue flanks (it looks kinda like a Red Tuxedo) and one that is similar but without blue flanks.
p.s. this is probably boring to you but to me - a 12 year old boy - this is somewhat significant.
LOL...it's all good! What country are you from?
@@MichaelsFishRoomSouth Africa (I just realized that one appears to be really brightly coloured female - they are still quite young)
SweeFlyBoy's Fish thanks for watching!
hey dude, what are the rarest gups in Australia, would you know ?
thanks
steve.
Sorry Brah, I don't even know what the rarest gupps are in the US!
Steve Williams panda cross cobra guppies are the rarest since they normally don't like to breed
The ones I'm breeding
Have u ever breed a platy and guppie together they don’t look bad at all saw a few video
Nope.
Hi, just for reference (no im not a fish abuser) I breed GUPPYS at 69 degrees (during the winter that is what my house is at) and at a ph of 8.4 out of my tap. They breed fine and show great color... the real trick is to get the fish from petco/smart and make them live long enough to give birth... from then on I work with the fry that love my water.
Nice! How often do they breed at that temp?
Michael's Fish Room hard to say... I do it in 10 gallons and don't separate females... all I know is I make about 75 fry per month out of each 10 gallon tank with one male and 2 females
Dude your videos are awesome can I buy a pair of half black guppies of you
As long as you are in the US. Www.michaelsfishroom.com
Question for you. I recently moved 3 of my female guppies from my 30 gallon to my 10 gallon tank. I’m 90% sure they are preganant (large belly, black spot on their underside is growing). Is this okay for them to give birth? One of them had one last night but it was immediately eaten (I’m getting more hiding places today). Any advice on how I can increase my chances of a larger yield? Do I need a bubble stone in the birthing tank? Thanks.
(I have around 9 female and 8 male)
ua-cam.com/video/Lxac_hn2YL0/v-deo.html
My blue platys seem to be the fry I find in my tank. I have 2 male guppies and 6 females.. I don't know if they're eating them right as they're giving birth. It's hard to get them before they're dinner for the other fish. I don't like to stress out the females more than they are.. id love to know when they're about to give birth. I've tried to put the females in a breeding box but they don't usually give birth until I'm not looking. 😏
You need more hiding spots.
I'm not picky on the color or selling, I'm wanting to raise them for my Oscar I have & bluegills & bass.
I am planning on getting at 28l tank (6 gallons) and probably getting 4 guppies to go with it. I’m not sure what heater to use with my 6 gallon tank to get it to the 72-80 degree temperature that they need. Does anyone have any recommendations, that are not that expensive? Thanks a million!
Sorry, I don’t.
8:12 was the word you trying to say "price per pound"?
I still don't know! LOL But basically the cost of FBW compared to flake makes it not cost effective.
I have a 36 gallon tank fake plants tho I have probably 7 to 8 molleys and 5 gumppies males on both and female do u think they will all bread
I don’t know how to add pic or I would
Nope
Do you think loaches would get along with Cory catfish and guppys
Yes
PROFIT MARGIN! PROFIT MARGIN!
Exactly!
