Gary Lange's Amazing Rainbow Fish Collection and Fish Room Tour

[@daveb3093]

Gary reminds me so much of Paul Stamets. An expert sharing openly and passionately. Thank you Gary and thank you Lucas!

[@e.g.no25andrew62]

dude i see it. Rainbows and mushroom. fishguy and a fungi

[@Addi--]

No matter how many videos Gary Lang is featured in, there's always new information he gives. Pretty incredible on how much he knows.

[@KateInTheCity]

For sure! Gary Lange is the man. I'd love to meet him someday to talk rainbow fish.

[@Dovietail]

Haha! Like rainbow fish, it takes me a little while in the mornings to get my color. I, too, am an afternoon fish.

[@angeledwards780]

Thank you Lucas and Gary! I was in heaven seeing all those Rainbows. I saw so many I want to add to my rainbow family!

[@junglejim4569]

WOW. What an awesome collection of Rainbow's. Because of LRB I now have a dedicated 4ft 65gallon planted tank full of Rainbow's!!! And they are stunning.

[@jdpartridge]

I think I have watched this video 10 times in the last year. I am always seeing and learning something new. Thank you for posting this.

[@kelleyforeman]

I think this is the fourth time I’ve watched this! Absolutely amazing!

[@arnoldmmbb]

Yeah folks!!!!! Rainbowfish paradise!!!!

[@rusticitas]

Ooh! That’s why they’re called Rainbows! I’ve never seen them like that or in such variety or well described or filmed.

[@aquaticfish7327]

Rainbow aquarium dream land! Love it! Thanks for the tour! Nice close up photography too!

[@edstaart8548]

Always cool to see a rainbow collection, in Europe we have more hero s like Gary Lange. You could house almost every rainbow species in its own tank, could be the coolest collection ever. I only have two tanks, one community( several rainbows) and one Garylangei species only,really love them. I think the preacox is the nicest one to keep, beautifull and community breeding,always nice to experience baby fish who survive without breeding efforts.

[@BentleyPascoe]

The Bowfather himself, you know this is an assured thumbs up from me.

[@Cgraseck]

Epic! That’s all I have to say.
Thanks to Gary as well.
Cheers,
Chris

[@terrygorsch386]

It gets crazy 🐠 what amazing Rainbow s😁

[@Greggz111]

Thank you for posting this. The best tour I have seen so far of Gary's fish room. Saw a few I now have to seek out! Very nicely done.

[@veedebee]

Love this tour, really clear, I’m saving this one, it’s soo great to be able to identify each one with a label which you don’t get with a lot of fishroom tours- Thankyou.

[@ladyt1866]

love the more scientific side of the fish hobby that Mr. Lang brings.

[@blundeysnipe7625]

i dont know how many times ive come back to this video as i get deeper into the hobby and more interested in rare rainbowfish this is truly my dream fish room , been searching for the syngeros rainbows for years now cool to see he had some

[@LRBaquatics]

It’s definitely an awesome fish room! I currently have some Synergo babies growing up. Not easy to find Synergos.

[@blundeysnipe7625]

@@LRBaquatics do u ever sell fish online ? Beacuse i love the syngeros and would also love to try breeding it and makeing it more popular in the hobby love the green blues and yellow definitly my favorite of the dwarf rainbows

[@LRBaquatics]

@@blundeysnipe7625 I do. I have a website www.lrbaquatics.com Send me an email though and we can talk cause those will go super fast if they even make it to the website.

Wow amazing. It’s rainbow fish dream room.

[@jescowan26]

Loving the Lange tours he makes me want to keep more fish, all his look so healthy

[@dgstanks7447]

Outstanding video! Gary could to a live web cam on a couple diff tanks every week, and I would tune in all day long. Lol

[@halo6six6]

Hey Lucas, glad you made it home safe from the GVAC swap! So cool to meet you and get some shrimp and plants from you! My Granddad loves the Guppy Grass and I think the Pilo Moss is already bonding to my driftwood! Thanks again for making the trip!
Can't wait to get home from work so I can sit and watch this properly.

[@LRBaquatics]

Glad to hear the plants are going over well! Was great to meet you at the GVSC swap and glad I went! Thanks for the support!

[@QU35TIONZcc]

Seriously this is one of your best any video with Gary is great 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

Awesome collection of rare rainbow fish 🎏🐟👍

[@indyaquatics8370]

I appreciate both of you and glad to have met you. I watch this video frequently. Growing out some Goldei Dekai now!
Thanks from Circle City Aquarium Club

❤️❤️❤️

[@83kaszas]

Rainbow fish and all,but the plants man they are so nice as well

[@girrig97]

It's amazing how small rainbow fry are considering the water systems they are in here in Australia

[@chamengthao5703]

Gary Lange's is a fricken beast can't wait to visit his fish room in the future and buy some RAINBOWS!!!

[@sunizbliss]

Awesome...love watching your channel! Your fun to watch and Im always learning something new. I'm new to the hobby as an adult and it started out with a Betta fish and a 5 gallon..now Im up to 5 tanks and want to open my own fish room..I read and watch any information I can gather ...its been less then a year and I dove in headfirst...love this..thank you so much for your time and knowledge that you choose to share with us and educating the world.

[@clearwaterbeachhomesearchm5957]

Thanks Lucas. Great fish room tour

[@Elbslayer]

awesome fish room tour. and also a great argument in discussion about the putative lack in color of freshwater fish compared to saltwater fish. especially the rainbows look in shape and color similar to all the new wrasses.

[@Fishtory]

Thank you so much Lucas! This is epic, and the filming quality looks great man!
the Herbert Assholerodi look really nice. Man Ill have to watch aquabid. The Lucustris, and iriatherin werner look amazing too.

[@drockingfish]

Awesome!!! Nice to see the King of Rainbows fish room!!

[@StanTheObserver-lo8rx]

He's got a green thumb too...his plants looked great. No Co2...and they are lush anyways.

[@WaterWizard1]

Thank you so much Lucas for another great fishroom tour.
Love these videos and the tranquil flow you have !
Amazing what all you do brother...
Please never stop doing what you do and being you !
Does Wesley has his own play tank yet ?
💙🌱🐠✌🏼️

[@michaelschmitz500]

Danke Lucas ! Gary Lange ist mein Held, ich liebe die Berichte über seinen Fisch Raum. Er ist so ein freundlicher Mensch. Wie viele Meilen musstest Du bis zu seinem Haus fahren ? Thx Lucas ! Gary is my Rainbow Fish hero. I love visiting his fish room on UA-cam. He is such a friendly man. How many miles did you travel to his house ? I am member of the IRG the German Rainbowfish Community. Have a nice day, I love your Videos and your dream come true.

[@edstaart8548]

Michael Schmitz Gutentag, Es its immer wunderbar ein Rainbowfish hero zu sehen. Im Deutschland gibt Es auch mehrere Rainbowfish hero s. I ch bin ein IRG niederlande member und hatte erst Herr Gerd Barz besucht in seinem "Rainbowfish-stable, " sehr schones ambiance and fish I have never seen before. Through herr Barz I have my Mgarylangei strain, love them. Next collecting trip will be from Hans Evers with Mike from Imperial tropicals from Florida. Mike is going to film this trip so worthwhile checking out. ( happening round may this year) Have a very nice day.

[@michaelschmitz500]

@@edstaart8548 : Thank you for writing, the IRG Meetings in Solingen are often visited by Wim Heemskerk from the Netherlands IRG Group. To visit Gerd Barz "Fish-Stable" is on my shedule for spring 2019. I am a member of Group NRW and I know also Johannes Graf and Harro Hieronymus. Very nice guys with tons of experience. Tot ziens en vriendelijke groeten, Michael

[@danielrodgers8252]

Great video Lucas! It was awesome getting to meet you this past weekend and I appreciate your complement on my mustache haha! Unfortunately I was not able to buy anything from you since I was only in town to attend a wedding but I hope to be able to get some Gary Lange rainbows from you in the future! Keep up the good work brother!

[@mattdowling955]

Wow! I've been binging rainbow videos for the last 2 days and now I need to keep some myself haha. I'm in Australia and my regular lfs often have some species but obviously never show much colour so I don't spend a long time watching them. Time to set the wheels in motion for my next tank now 😄 the rainbow tank 👌

[@LRBaquatics]

Yeah most rainbows wont show much color until they get older. You will have some silver fish for awhile then one day they will blossom.

[@Dovietail]

Okay, amazing video, but we need a Gary Lang plant list! These are some of the prettiest planted tanks I've ever seen in a working Fish Room.

[@LRBaquatics]

Have you seen my fish room? If you do need an id on one in this video just time stamp it by putting for example at minute 1:23 it will link me to where the plant is and can let you know. Just do it on a new comment because it doesnt notify me if its strung on the same comment.

[@thomasmeade4490]

We all miss your videos that arnt lives plz come back with more even 1 a month or so im re watching videos cuz I love your style

[@jadenpetersen8292]

I met you at the GVAC swap too! I had a lot fun I am enjoying the "HC" thanks for the poster!

I just kind of ran across your channel and I really enjoyed it I’m just now getting into Bomani fish and I have some of the rainbows and other ones and you’re letting me know the names of them thank you so much and God bless and by the way if you happen to have any girls that you want to sell please let me know

[@transit921]

beautiful fish

[@chewy2420]

Billion thumbs up 👍

Awesome video. is it possible to have more info on the fry hatchery rack? i would love to build something similar.

[@footballfrequency7979]

Ive been waiting for this and didn't know it until now!!! LRB!!

Gary needs an apprentice to pass on his secrets to. I volunteer.

Fantastic video

Thanks to you I now know I have the Melanotaenia lacustris!

Thanks lucas.👍 you must of loved it there

[@calcifiedbonecollector3222]

Thank you so much!

[@swatch12345]

Man I know this video was awhile back but damn every time I see his fish room, it makes me fall in love with rainbows. I'd like to know what that substrate that is. Small fine soft gravel. I love it.

[@StanTheObserver-lo8rx]

The fish? What more can be said? I'm even amazed how well his Bolbitis is growing.

[@calebandres7595]

Yeeeeeeessssssss awesome fish room tour! 👍👍

[@w01f9ack8]

Such amazing fish🥹 i have a 55 with 8 preacox rainbows that I've just started breeding. Lost my first batch to fungus/bacteria so we're going to try some methalyne blue and see what happens this time. Definitely looking forward to messing with more after I get this figured out. Thanks for all the inspiration 🙏❤️💯

[@tizok100]

amazing room.

[@healthypoh3288]

I love to watch the tanks and fish. May i know whether you use CO2 or not as i see your plants are all pretty nice and healthy. Tq

[@LRBaquatics]

He only used co2 in his main big tank.

[@anthonylj9709]

L0L "like a rapala swimming by" I thought that was awesome. I agree... although I'm pretty sure the rapala's were designed to mimic the fish not the other way haha.

[@SurprisedPikacheesecake]

It's so beautiful.😭

[@kroegermarkus1170]

thank you, thank you, thank you!

[@thefishylife6823]

I'm so disappointed that nobody sells the hardyheads!! Those fly speckled hardyheads are the most interesting fish and I want some but figured it's super rare and not for sale by anyone in America!!! Lol another Gary fish that is 1of 1 .... I wonder if he's breeding them and getting those into the hobby!????

[@mariaz9538]

Great tour. I wish one of you would adopt me! Lol

[@Sev572]

I don’t expect you to have an answer but maybe a rainbowfish hobbyist you know does. What’s the difference between bedotia Madagascariensis and bedotia geyai? They’re both labeled as “Madagascar Rainbowfish” in stores, and they’re often confused for one another. There’s very little information on either on the internet and some articles state that they’re always confused and mis labeled as each other. The ones I have are a lime green colored, which I don’t often see them as that color in informative articles. If you could help out that would be fantastic

[@laurasutton4057]

Colton Larson I hope you are able to find out what you have. Have you tried taking some good photos and sending to the experts to identify. Also I would try to find some current books. Good luck.

I have been trying to convince myself to enjoy/appreciate rainbows, but I just don't understand the allure of this species.
That said; this guys setup is fantastic! What an operation.

[@absolutelyunepic3072]

It's not just color, they have patterns that are unmatched in the freshwater world. Otherwise a good boisterous fish so you can see all the colors on show

[@karunald]

Music sounds great!

[@vivalabad6]

I have some pseudomugil furcata rainbows, wondering is it wise to mix other Pseudomugils (Pseudomugil gertrudae) in with them? i.e. Will they/are they able to interbreed?

[@garysmith1190]

Betta rubra looks great!

[@camkelly546]

I had them without any salt kept them in a rainbow community aquarium..started with 1 male 6 females ..2 females died after 2 years the rest did fine..

[@howlinhauler]

I'm not even into rainbows and I loved this video . Video and sound should be better on these great fish room tours but this was still fun.

[@jordanhounsell4342]

Are most of these larger planted tanks 75 gallons or 40 breeders? With the alleni wapoga for example. Sometimes hard to tell in video.

[@bradleyburdett5361]

Did you see the black bottoms on those 2 liters.

[@treeehrhardt4509]

Need to work on the sound! Us old folks have a hard time hearing. Had to turn volume all the way up. Good tour .

[@apolloravindran]

True, i tried on my tablet and was barely able to hear anything so eventually had to watch it on my cellphone with headphones. Great video though!

[@ericnewton538]

Earbuds. Could hear fine

[@StanTheObserver-lo8rx]

Wish there were more Scientists who are fish keepers on youtube. The C.bleheri are bucket list fish I probably will never see for sale in my lifetime. Or at $50 each and that's a killer if you wanted a half dozen at least. Dragon fish almost the same level.

[@joecampbell303]

Love the rainbow fish his fish rooms great anyone no where u can get the rainbow fish posters he has

[@Dovietail]

Yeah, see, what are the harder water Cripts? I have liquid rock and would love to try growing some of those!

[@LRBaquatics]

I have learned from experience that crypts love hard water.

[@cutefish7317]

How do you keep your fish room warm in a 22 degrees below zero weather ?
If the power goes out how many hours can you warm your fish room with a backup generator ?

[@keepingitcrypto560]

You must be in Chicago like me

[@meghanchampy4172]

At 9:21 what type of specific plant is that bottom dweller. I have many different of middle ground but would love this in my city domain.

[@bmbmaurer]

Dude great video I want to get more tanks!

[@misfitz_ggsitzgeno3330]

42:26 what kind of rainbow fish stays small like that? I thought those Bosemanis were babies and get bigger

[@LRBaquatics]

They are Lake Aytinjo Bosemani Rainbowfish. They are a lot like regular bosemani but stay smaller.

[@stephennix3118]

The Red Dragon is such a beautiful fish. Does he put them on aquabid

[@lalomata1734]

Fish biutiful. In México.👍

[@NateK-MN]

What was the betta at the beginning? Never have seen one like that before!

[@AG-wf4mu]

One day someone will time tag every species in this video 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@donovang6911]

What books has Gary Lange written? I'm having trouble finding them!

[@maxiculture]

36:30 fly-specked hardyhead, Cratero/cephalus stercus/muscarum. Cephalus means head and muscarum means of the fly, the rest you can work out for yourself ;)

[@therealrider9778]

What's the purpose of the yarn in your tanks if you don't mind me asking

[@LRBaquatics]

They are spawning mops. Used for collecting eggs from rainbows. If you search LRB spawning mop I have videos on them

[@ashwinmistry9464]

I in Canada how to get your fish ? Please advise

[@catfishcave379]

Mmmmmmmmmmmmm... rainbows...

[@carybritton4178]

@ LRB !!!! How do I get the Gary lang rainbow fish ????? Been researching and I’m ready bro

[@LRBaquatics]

Would have to find his email or message him on FB

[@valiaudet3415]

Wow

[@bullbull4662]

what feed to beautify or change the color ? 🙏🙏🙏

[@LRBaquatics]

Live food or tetra color tropical granules. It also takes them time to grow up to get their color as well.

[@tubarao1143]

You only have air filters?

[@pooftiger]

Pronunciation: Crater o sef fah lus ster kus moo scar um. Translation Bowl head of compost flies... perhaps Gary has some insight as to why. I knew those four years of Latin would be useful some day.
