The golden white cloud minnow turns into a stunningly colorful fish when in an outdoor pond with lot of plants and sunlight!
and you post the link to the little solar powder pump. Thanks
Hey love the video and love having legit food. Been using the community and just crushing a bit in my fingers for my nano fish. Any update on when you might be getting the nano pellets back in stock? Getting the for a reorder and I want to do the 3 pack variety?
@@SteveHebert awesome to hear Steve! Nano will be back in April (finally!!!) along with everything else thats been sold out. thanks for hangin with me!
When the day comes u start selling rice fish because I feel.like its gonna happen lol I'm all in to buy some ! 🤙🏼
I respect the thirst trap thumbnail.
lol ;) its almost that time of year!!!!
I just scrubbed through the video looking for tanktop footage

Here to let ya know - I've caught local mosquito fish and kept them in aquaria with incredible success. I would say they're an exact equivalent to keeping a Minnow/Guppy/Rice Fish - super hardy, breed well in captivity; if you're a biotope person, they tend to live in shallows of slow/non moving water (think ponds, lakes, etc.) and are often in the presence of HEAVY algae growth. Theyre timid, so giving them option for overhead cover really helps, but they become very social and receptive to your presence once they learn you're the bringer of food
The one thing to be careful with about mosquito fish is that they’re 100% not a community fish. They are very VERY aggressive and will attack pretty anything that isn’t them
How do you catch them?
@@seanrafferty6752 As their name implies, they do eat mosquito larvae quite readily, so they’re most abundant where mosquito larvae can thrive; which is low movement, warmer waters. So, ponds and lakes, look to the shallows, especially algae covered shallows, and these little guys are absolutely thriving. Even when spooked, they don’t venture into deeper waters for too long without returning to the coastline of whatever body of water you’ve found them in - this makes them easiest to catch with a simple aquarium net. Just set your net into the water until it touches the floor, and let them come back and inspect the area before netting them up
My gold minnows lived under 4 inches of ice for a week
Thanks for that info!!!!
I'm thinking on getting white cloud minnows
Where do you live? I've wanted to do a tub pond but I always worry about late snows
Im in Oregon , we get very little ice in the valley
Toughest fish of all time
I love gold white clouds. theyre fun to watch. and i you feed them - it looks like carnage.
Ooooooo. I can't wait to see and learn more about the rainbow shiners. It's very exciting. 🤓
The local ponds near me all have mosquitoes fish in them. I do not keep them in my ponds now but have in the past.
As far as the Gambusia(Mosquito Fish) go, you can find some melanistic males. Which look more like Dalmatian Mollies than the normal Gambusia. I havent been able to track down how well the trait gets passed down. But generally Gambusia will last you 2-3 years with minimal predation. The melanistic coloring really makes them stand out in ponds like a lot of the lighter colored fish mentioned in the video.
Florida resident and can find them in a lot of the local lakes and ponds as well as some other cool native fish.
I just got into rice fish this year ! I’m obsessed! I have stunning tri colors and have almost 44 fry !!! Can’t wait to get them in a pond this summer !
While feeding my Medaka I moved inside for the winter i thought how good they are going to look when I move them back outside, can’t wait to see them under the proper outdoor sunlight. I was also thinking of trying the white clouds aswell outside as I’ve kept them inside for many years. I’ve actually been tidying up the outside ponds and tubs this week … hope we both have a good outside season. 😊
Hercules on the thumbnail
Haha it pond *tank* season!
Omg can’t wait to watch this vid once I’m free!
I don’t mean to spam, but where can I find the video of you setting up the cork bark “tree trunks”?
wow!!
you have various kinds of medaka😊✨
Awesome video
If you try the auto collector with your shiners,use ceramic filter beads instead of moss, shiners spawn over rock beds. Good luck!
I have white clouds I love them
Amazing Mike! I've been having the same thoughts with my golden white clouds, definitely too early for me in blighty just yet. Some of those pictures of rice fish from Japan seem too good to be true don't they, hovered over the buy it now button on ebay for some eggs more than once must admit though.
I've been rebuilding my bog filter this afternoon, not the most fun job, the things I got wrong when I first built it have been driving me crazy though! Have you ever tried an up flow bog filter? Seems like your kind of thing, rainbow shiners would love it I reckon, especially in the pond where you plan to put your culls
Awesome video dude, what camera are you using nowadays?
Good choices and good luck. Great video
Thanks 👍
Medaka heads!
Try some dwarf sag in the little outdoor pond. I have it in my outside tubs year round.
Ohhh ya, im a big d sag outdoor guy lol, grown it by the thousands in little kid pools before!
Live in Maine so I’m quite sure any pond I kept outside without a heater for winter would absolutely freeze solid. Do want to start a garden pond for local frogs, dragonflies and whatever wonders by.
Iris plants survive Alaskan winters, not surprised it survived yours lol
Got my platinum Medaka and red headed white Medaka in a 4ft long x 2ft wide x 2ft deep heavily planted with indigenous pond plants to the UK. They can live through really harsh Winters of thick ice and snow. In fact they thrive. Started off with 7 platinum now have over 40.
Recently added 4 red headed white Medaka to them just to add to their gene pool.
However, sadly my golden wcmm shoal died after 4yrs of breeding happily in a 48gallon plastic barrel also heavily planted with indigenous pond plants. But it was a ferociously cold Winter.
Both fish types devour any gnat populations which is why I got them in the 1st place. Both easily my favourite breeds
Do you know it’s illegal to keep them outside in the UK?
1st time I have heard that! Why?
I love all the conifers in your garden, they look amazing. I have white clouds in an outdoor pond but I don't have to move them in winter as our (Canberra Australia) weather is not so cold as yours.
So nice of you!
I've never seen rice fish in my local fish stores here in CT.
Try putting only your top 2 pair of golden white cloud in the tub and I'm sure you'll fill it up with fry soon
"Still actually, kind of winter time where I live"
*Vibrant, green grass in the background*
These be fighting words! 🤣
Hahah i mean, its still dumping rain and like 40 - 50 its gettin closer hahaha 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
Lol for real. 😂 I just got over a foot of snow dropped on me.
Got a group of rainbow shiners last week. Mostly juveniles. Heard that they don’t start spawning until they are close to a year old, so don’t know if I’ll get any more out of them this year.
The rainbow shiner is such a beautiful fish from Mobile river in Alabama, Georgia and Tennessee and where else it may live in the wild. IMO very underrated colorful fish. It seems that many native fish to North America and Europe aren’t as popular as in the aquarium hobby as South - and Central America and Asia.
I keep the heterandria formosa in my species only tank, and I wish I could take them out in the summer, but I live in two room condo in Copenhagen, Denmark with no balcony and I wouldn’t dare to set up a pond in the courtyard. But I’m told they could survive from May/June to August/September here in Denmark outside
I was thinking of the Midnight Medaka from Aqua huna for pond season, then u mentioned that's where u get your ricefish, so I think I'm gonna pull the trigger and order 2×6packs of the black Medaka from them.
I live in NH. It gets super cold. I've had many white clouds and obsessed with Killifish, so MEDAKA HEAD! I'm obsessed with Medaka
Thats awesome! you'll love em :)
The thumbnail is showing the shirtless gun show with an apron. Clickbait. Hilarious. Thanks for the advice. 💪
Sunlight aquariums thrive better imo than led light supported.
The plant growth is amazing
You should probably so I would love to do like an indoor planter pond
Are there some planters that you recommend? Both indoor and outdoor
I have golden white cloud minnows growing in my pond in Southern California along with medakas, mollies, rosy red minnows, and a goldfish. They are hardy and i noticed yesterday one of them looked very pregnant. My pond is heavily planted along with floating plants to prevent birds, cats and raccoons from wffectively preying upon the fish.
I ordered 20 rice eggs from Japan in dec for around 50$$ shipping included. came in 7 days and got about 30 eggs all hatched
I'd love to keep small ponds like that, but we're I live it reaches 120+°F, and as low as 20°F in the winter.
You will love the Rainbow Shiners. Their colors pop on dark substrate and in dark containers.
Thanks!!!!
I just got some of @whiteclouddynasty 's rainbow shiners and they look exactly like that even as sub adults. They're awesome but I'm also looking at them at eye level
I don't believe that those Rainbow shinners were photo-shopped. They actually look like that. Mine burst into colors while breeding and the males tend to keep the colors as they mature and court females. I haven't been able to "capture" the color on a camera as someone did with those photos, but with my naked eye, I'm amazed. You will be too.
👍🏻👍🏻
I'm in Los Angeles
I can't have outdoor tubs because of the raccoons!!
Is this fish(#1) a golden white cloud or albino? I ask because I have seen at an independent fish store selling as albino. Or are they 2 separate fish?
golden white cloud, not sure about the albino naming, maybe its the same fish? not sure off the top of my head
I actually keep mosquito fish in tanks they're very hardy and require very little care, though I keep them in a planted pond tank
Thats awesome! Thanks for lettin me know :)
Where did you get the 2 floating fish decorations that are in the pond? 5:07
At a local garden center... maybe check etsy?
Mosquito fish are hardy but boring. Alot of people dont realize that they can grow mollies and platties outdoors as long as you are in an area that dont freeze over. Mollies originated in the Carolinas. I have plenty of mosquitoes in my area of Southern California but my pond fish are able to eat all the mosquito larvae. My pond is basically a death trap for mosquitoes that try and use my pond for breeding.
Why would you scrape the walls and remove the plant die-off? Is that what you want to achieve to make your pond a bit more self-sustaining?
Mike, do you have any plans of making a LEGIT flake? My fish love the community and bottom feeder foods, just wondering if flake is on your mind.
Thats great to hear! We totally can, and im not opposed to it... just gotta have the time to do it!
@AQUAPROS somehow my brain had a flash of you squishing pellets by hand into flakes with like a tortilla press thing. 😂😂😊
how do you keep birds off of the ponds?
Dude...where are you located? when you recommend outdoor fish, would be good to know where you are so i can see if it works for where i am? (SE TX)
RICEFISH!!!!!
@@AQUAPROS 🤣🤣🤣🤣 racial double entendres achieved! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 other options too? I had mosquito fish (free from the culvert in front of our property) but they are not pleasant to the eyes. However, they survived through a couple of freezing nights we had. Super useful as they ate all the mosquito larvae. Would like to put something that could survive the freeze and pleasant to stare at...thanks for responding all the same and for the laughs!
@@kimchianthony lol ya ricefish are nice to look at (most of them) and the aduts will survive freezing water. Last winter top 1 inch was frozen solid. Water temp mid 20's for like 5 days. Good luck!
Rainbow shiner don't breed the same as other more common fish. They colony breed, and they also need rock piles. Two piles are better than one, three is better yet. They also seem to be seasonal breeders with a short fertility span. Three or four days.
Thank you!
Can I ask what part of the US you are in?.... I'm in Northern Ohio
I have 2 wicked ideas, both would execute perfectly together if done properly.
Gonna keep it a secret so no one jacks my idea(s). 😅
Has anyone have success with purchasing medaka eggs from ebay and having them hatch and grow up into adult fish?
Rainbow shiners take a long time to look good. I have mine for about 1 year and some have the blue highlights but no red. They live for about 3 years and i heard that you'll see the color in their last year. We'll see. So far, nothing special about them. I have 3 males and 3 females.
they should be able to color up by 3 months.. have you had spawning? do you have baskets and rock piles? are there other fish present in the tank? are you sure you have males?
2nd
My local government will give you maskito fish if you have a pond
Just a heads up, NOTHING from the government is free. Love the vids man
😉😉
hate your titles
