Thank you for so many fish room updates! They’re always so relaxing to watch :) They inspired me to set up a livebearer tank (humpback limia and Sailfin mollies) and it’s been my favourite tank lately!
Those long fin rosey barbs look amazing!
I get aquascaping ideas from looking at your awesome looking tanks. Thanks 😊
Inspired me to organize my guppies a bit outside pond season is over, time to winter them inside and grow them up
12:00 “scud light” nothing like crackin a couple cold scud lights with the boys
🤣
Looking forward to your update videos on the monster guppy project! How much longer do you think before you’ll start making your first selective choices?
My guess is 4 months or so. I need some larger batches of fry, then can start removing fish that seem smaller in size. I also need to setup an auto feeder as well to help maximize growth.
@@AquariumCoop I've noticed it's sometimes tough to tell if a fish is small or just a colorful juvenile when there are multiple drops of fry in the same tank. Do you have a strategy for distinguishing between young vs small adult guppies?
No strategy. To do what you'd want to do, you'll need lots of fry tanks for rearing individual batches. I believe it'll get results faster but at the cost of more expense and work. If you have that already, use it. For me, I do colony breeding most, and just keep selecting over time. It's not perfect, but neither am I :)
Thanks for the detailed response, @AquariumCoop! Theres definitely a balance with the number of tanks. With your experience, I think your current method will begin giving you results in no time!
I have a few beautiful large in size males and female even larger might take on the same project in my 65 gallon cube @@AquariumCoop
Been waiting for a fish room update! Inspired me to get a dense dwarf sag forest going in a 10g on my breeding rack as well
Floating hornwort works great for fry protection too, and it's great for helping to control algae.
It's great until it's unhappy and bombs your tank with needles.
I enjoyed this video as it displayed a large variety that I could watch cycle if I'd just buy the fun.
You need someone to design you a shrimp-sorter-machine that works like a marble-sorting machine. I'd imagine a narrow path large enough to wash one shrimp through & a computer-camera will color-grade the shrimp & wash it to the proper cup. I think there is a YT channel who is specifically designing a marble sorter, maybe he can create a shrimp one when he's done becoming an expert at sorting marbles.
Love the fish room updates, thank you Those tetra are beautiful 😍
I used No Planaria recently in 3 of my tanks for hydra and it worked fast and great. No shrimp/snail/fish deaths and most of the Hydra were gone after 1 dose.
The no planaria is really good for hydra as well
Thank you for the tour of your fish room Corey! I always learned some thing when I watch you. I so enjoyed looking at all your tanks and it helps me solve problems with my own tanks. Keep up the great work and looking forward to your next video.
Thanks for the update, everything is looking great.
Nice video 👍
Cory was talking monster guppy’s then I went to my local and they had four or five inch females I never seen guppy’s this big
Assasinsnails for planaria.. interesting!! But do the assasinsnail eat baby shrimps ?
It would be great for me if you sold Trumpet Snails ‼️👍😊
We do in our retail store. But we don't ship anything live besides plants on the website.
Did you stop using the easy flow kits?
I think No Planaria is fab! It works for me.
Bought a crypt nuriii tissue culture from y’all that’s also flourishing. Love those mbuna!!
The Crypt nurii are cool little plants.
Im curious, why the assassin snails for MTS? I know you've raved about MTS in the past
If I'm being honest, I'd rather breed assassin snails and sell them in the store than buying assassin snails from fish wholesalers. Plus, After my research I read that there is the possibility they will eat planaria. Testing them in a bunch of tanks is a better way to test that vs just 1 tank.
Oooohhhh how I am curious about the Assassin snail and planeria situation! Sadly, I will not wish for an outbreak to test the theory 🤣 I can say I have some Assassin snails in all of my tanks except my snail breeding tanks. Never seen planaria in any of them. 🤔
I’ve been using no planeria for a few years.I don’t know if it kills them all but I definitely notice decreases in the amount of them when I use it in a tank .so it definitely does something from what I see . But there part of the eco system.to much of anything is bad . But some isn’t the end all.i have some planeria in all my tanks . I’ve honestly never noticed any real ill affects. To be really worried about.
My sunsets are not breeding either! They have plenty of cover though and very few males. My hawaii variatus breed much better in simular conditions. It is a mystery for now. Might be something to do with the lethel gene they cary or the temperature.
Is BacterAE a good food for guppy fry?
Bacter AE is not food. It is a mix of microorganisms, amino acids and enzymes.
can I add 2 goldfish to a 40 breeder full time or will i run into water quality issues? I dont generally water change unless there is an issue(thankfully hasbt been one really since i setu p the thank over a year ago)
I think long term you'll run into some problems. You could probably go for a while with light feeding and java ferns and anubias helping. But I think an easier path is water changes and/or a larger aquarium.
Interesting. For me, No-Planaria reliably wipes out *all* snails in a tank. 🤔
Yeah, I had read it won't do that, some say it might. In my experience it didn't. I was actually trying to see if I could get rid of snails also... Lol.
How do you stop crushed coral from raising PH to 7.8-8?
Is there a way to keep ph at 7-7.5 with CC? I believe not but im asking anyways
Use less of it
I would use calcium carbonate powder to be more precise rather than crushed coral which is a shotgun approach. Seachem alk buffer works or food grade calcium carbonate. Experiment adding it to your water change water.
@@vesawuoristo4162using less just makes your tank take longer to get to 7.8-8 , i guess it could work if you do weekly water changes,
Ill play around with it
Change water more often. In my experience to get to 7.8 to 8, it takes months to get my water that high. Doing water changes prevents that for me. Even if I wanted to get it that high usually I can't due to the amount of plants and fish I keep.
What cryps are those at 15:55?
Just crypt wendtii red and bronze that we sell on our website.
whats the point of adding fertilizers and doing water changes? THey do the opposite effect and cancel out each other. Same with over feeding. I found that as long as I dont overfeed, have good think subtrate and good plants i want to put as much light as possible basically.
