    As someone who has been pretty involved in the aquarium side of the internet for almost 7 years now, this channel has to be my favorite.

    I love how crazy fishkeepers are, I would have never thought of printing a centrifuge attachment to a rotary tool. Absolutely nuts but also super cool!

    Awesome video as always! One hack that made my life easier is growing paramecium cultures with only dog kibble, no rotting veggies. I learned this at our killifish convention. Works great and FAR less stinky. Good luck with your paramecium trap, so interesting what you can print!

    Every time I want to step away from breeding fish apistogrammas and corydoras pull me back in…recently got a pair of Baenschi as well, love the colors and it’s fun to see the dorsal fin on the male slowly develop and the female slowly coloring up. Also just had an accidental spawn with my corydoras sterbai so now I’m on the hunt for different corydoras species as well…my wallet for sure hates me!

    Awesome. Super excited for the Baenschi video.
    For me, the holy grail was Elizabethae due to the price, but now that I’m trying the Agasizii Fire/Red/Gold manmade strain, I have realized that there’s a whole new set of problems to deal with.
    AKA they are not very sexually dimorphic when young. Guess I’m battling impatience 😂
    I don’t have the space to deal with corys, but my lfs said they get their pygmies from a local breeder who colony breeds them by using a huge and mature java moss carpet. It would be cool to emulate that, especially if it can become hands off. I’m sure you’ve looked into it.

    • @MakeMoreFish
      @MakeMoreFish  10 місяців тому

      I have heard that about pygmies. I have an issue with them pygmaeus and habrosus. There's something in the chemical or biological environment of my tanks that they aren't able to tolerate. I haven't yet pinned down what that could be.

  • @deansfishroom
    @deansfishroom 10 місяців тому

    That stand came out nice! I got one here locally. But I really like that apisto cave, hopefully a great way to keep them from the front glass. A dark colored 3x3 sticky note will also give them some privacy in the cave when you're not filming.

    • @MakeMoreFish
      @MakeMoreFish  10 місяців тому

      It does really help to keep it covered. They've been shockingly comfortable with lights and cameras, as long as everything holds still. It's movement that makes them nervous. I try to get the best footage I can of cave spawns because it's so difficult to see, under normal circumstances.

  • @lucasfaley

    The Shop Talks are some of my favorite videos of yours, though I still am waiting to find out if you spawned chile rasboras from the first one. :P
    I've fallen in love with Corydoras varieties recently and am looking to add a couple more species to my house. I'm looking forward to your video on Scleromystax Barbatus, as mine have recently started spawning but not giving me the huge number of eggs that I've seen from other varieties. I'm not sure if this is a trait of the species or just the result of still-maturing fish.

    • @MakeMoreFish

    As always, love the videos. In fact, I wish you'd go in depth with how you are able to get such great video, including all those up close and personal shots lol
    This is where my art creative side comes out. I want to take video and pictures for my own interests, with at least this level of clarity. But something about fish in general just fight being caught on came
    I think there's something to their reflective/iridescent scales that is throwing everything off, and my camera will not, under any circumstances, focus on the fish

    • @MakeMoreFish
      @MakeMoreFish  8 місяців тому

      There's a video that Jimmy Gimbal made a few years ago about how to film fish. I watched that a couple of times and did my best to learn from there. In short though, for every 10 seconds of decent footage there are 10-20 minutes of frustration. Filming fish is an exercise in masochism. If I were to offer recommendations to others, the ones that come to mind are keeping fish you want to film near where you spend a lot of time so that they aren't sensitive to your presence, and focusing on stabilizing the camera. Tripods, hand skills, that kind of thing.

    Your angel cones a cool idea, why not print more pieces so you can swap out rather then leaving empty gaps?
    Also I'm somewhat annoyed you did the math of the centerfugal force and didn't specify what the g-forces were. 😅

    Any tips on sexing beckfords pencilfish? I am having difficulties doing it off colour intensity alone since I just got my fish so they are not conditioned yet. SeriouslyFish says something about the posterior edge of the fins of males being rounder but I haven't been able to see any differences. In any case, do you have any spawning tips for them? I have them in a quarantine tank right now with a bunch of yarn on the bottom to prevent them from eating eggs (if they have any). It would be really cool if I could get them to spawn in quarantine before I move them to my main tank.

    • @MakeMoreFish
      @MakeMoreFish  10 місяців тому +1

      None yet, they're pretty new to me. At a glance I see differences in color intensity that could be indicative of a male. thicker darker black stripes. more red on the body, and what appears to be more red on the anal fins and caudal peduncle. I don't know for sure if I even have both sexes.

      I took a small amount of nannochloropsis that came as a food source for moina and used it to inoculate a culture. That doesn't mean it hasn't been outcompeted with something else, but that's at least how it started.
