In today's video, we are setting up new plant grow out system. As a part of this, we will be breeding a new species of fish, Gambusia. They are a livebearer and are prolific breeders just like guppies!

I put these fish in all the cows water troughs at our dairy, they eat debris that fall off the cows mouths as well as mesquites and other pests.
Mosquito fish are some of the heartiest fish out there. Can survive muddy water, chlorine, tiny puddles, hot and cold temps. Perfect fish for throwing in a backyard pond to control mosquitoes.
Your so wrong MosquitoFish cant survive on Tap Water (Chlorine)
@@James-he6dv I'm 78. i breed mosquito fish for 60 year all this time i only put in tap water they all live to be healthy. you are wrong bucko.
@@James-he6dvfalse, when i was 13 i kept 20 mosquitofish in a plastic bin for 10 months on only tap water. Eventually i realized it probably wasn’t healthy. Florida tap water REEKS of chlorine, and is pumped full of fluoride. Eventually i got water conditioners. I still have that same family line 7 years.
@@neverxnice3577 so you were 13 and you didn’t understand water chemistry. It’s totally fine to admit that tap water is fine. Not sure what you don’t understand about that. If you use conditioner and a D chlorinator it’s totally fine.
@@harryfp1494 ur useless bro
Thanks for the airline tip! I have multiple sponge filters running off of one pump and couldn't figure out why there was so much disparity between the air the sponges were getting despite the gang valve being set properly.
If the Gambusia Affinis or Hoolbrook were available here in Denmark, I would definitely buy them. I can’t say that they are, but the aren’t available in the various LFS here where I live. I think they are cool because they resemble guppy IMO, and probably would be mistaken for guppy by people not interested in fish keeping, but yet are totally different species
Yes very easily mistaken if you don’t know
Hi, definitely here in Italy and in other parts of Europe, they have been introduced as a way to control mosquito population, and are now considered pests as they tend to pray on many small natives like tadpoles. They can survive more rigid temperatures and under a layer of ice, but I'm not sure if Denmark's climate is good enough for them. It might be worth checking in some slow water channels near where you live, every place where mosquitoes can breed that is connected to other water bodies maigh be good enough!
@@destegiovi the climate here is too cold for them to be introduced into our local streams, ponds and lakes for mosquito control. Besides as you mentioned they are considered invasive and are destroying local habitat for many native species. I keep heterandria formosa and they too are introduced outside the US for mosquito control. But they too can’t live here in Denmark
He's right you should definitely rinse your bins really well. I failed to do this and many of my fish croaked it. Also, you can use different length hose if you get one of those cheap gang air valves to adjust the flow to each stone.
Good tip on setting up the air lines!
Cool video and good setups
Excelente video and very educational you sir just got another subscriber and keep up the good work 👏
Great video Chris
Yea those fry are definitely gonna be safe with all of those plants, great video 🙏🏽
What size totes are those? wanting to breed those to use in the rice paddies and drainage ditches surrounding the small town i am in. They are native to my area so no worries on them becoming pest
I actually like this Channel.
In australia mosquito fish are a huge pest and are in pretty much every water source, very illegal to own or even transport as feeders
That's really interesting, here in Texas we want them to be prolific, we have a huge mosquito population though. I caught mine wild in a local spring to breed them and return them❤
Great video great . Clean up. Fishing aquarium great show
I love this channel
Nice video.
Where’d you get the fish?
I love your videos bro 😍👍
What do you feed em?
best water temp for mosquitofish breeding? best ph? how long does it take? when do you remove the adults?
No idea, but they bred in a tiny tupperware in my bedroom with ac in tap water, so they are some crazy fish.
What do yall do with all the fish from breeding? I want to breed guppies with my kids but don't know what I'd do with all of them? Lol.
I forgot to ask, what are the habitat for the two Gambusia species and are you going to set up a Gambusia biotope?
very shallow ponds murky lakes and just any place where mosquito lives
@@capmario- thanks for answering
You remind me of Jack Black. Nice meeting y’all today! My kids were pretty stoked about telling people they met a real UA-camr today :)
😂🤣😂 Do you have instagram?
The free guppy ( I know they are different genus)
🤘
super wowe
Do you ship plants in Europe??
There's no way that would be economical lol
@@VinylUnboxings I am asking because l have no idea
hi
Hello I like pizza
Of course you do !!!!
