    Awesome video as usual, beautiful tank, and your honeymoon suit can't be beat with some guitar and candlelight. Not sure if ide want you in my room during mating season though 🙄as usual very informative and enjoyable. Your channel is one of my favourites, only second to Kate Beckinsale and her bedtime chocolates 😊

    Hey Gil
    I can't pronounce these fish.... The scientific names... But I fo like the species you picked out and the black throated.
    Very cool you have your little shop of rocks and driftwood... Yes dear saves makes life easier. 🎸😂

      You don't need to pronounce the names Stubbs, that is why you keep an expert narrator on staff.

      Either will produce results Colin, although dragging the Steinway into the fish room can be a bit of a challenge.

    Awesome. Just found your channel and love your fish (and humour!). Could you show what and how much you feed the geos?

    • @Gilsfishroom
      @Gilsfishroom  11 місяців тому

      I prefer to feed Geos flake, as It is easier for them to eat. I also feed them tinned green beans. I feed once per day what they will eat in a couple of minutes.

    Can you do an update on the anoxic filter? How's it going? does it reduce the nitrates?

    How did you prepare the geos for breeding? Also how could you tell the Male from female to pull out a pair?

    • @Gilsfishroom
      @Gilsfishroom  16 днів тому

      No preparation at all. Can't tell their gender until they actually spawn. These two were cleaning a rock in the main tank. Part 2 explains all.

      Do you know if you have males and females? Only thing I could suggest is put them in their own tank with plenty of room and spawning rocks and see what happens.
