such a beautiful fish room! love this video. thanks for sharing the not so great stories about fish and shrimp keeping It's unfortuante, not everr seller or breeder has top notch fish/shrimp. can't wait to see the next update!
would love to see your future videos about keeping and breeding fish! i always love your videos and really looking forward for more, greetings from Bali, Indonesia.
Would love to see a video on your quarantine tank and practices. From someone who learned the hard way, it really is SO important when getting new fishies. ~ Molly
Hi Richard I started my shrimp tanks in march after buying your book and I now have 3 shrimp tanks after a rocky start from shrimp buys on live but now with red cherry,blue diamond and black all doing well and has massively help me with my stress and anxiety and if you have any more shrimp you are getting rid of I would be more than happy to buy them from you. Loving it thanks.
I would love to see a time-shrink of your home quarantine procedures with new fish and shrimp. I would gladly pay more to have this done for me beforehand though. Too bad shops around my home don't offer that as a service.
I'll buy the Betta book! Still waiting to pull the trigger on a Betta, tank still maturing. Can't find the Betta of my dreams. I'd like a red or blue with white fin tips.
I'll have to look into psuedomugils... might suit the liquid rock that comes out of the tap here in SW London. Unfortunately, too hard for RCS, I tried and failed.
Great you will make more fish breeding videos. I’m trying myself. Finally got some female scarlet badis but the male just chases them around so I removed him for now.
Thanks for the tour! You're my guide in shrimp's world :) Is it possible to buy shrimps from you? I look for high quality Neos to enrich my current small colonies. I plan to visit UK, not sure if i could bring them back home (EU) but i'd like to try :)
Also Mollies but lost many to the parents 😢 I started to use a birthing box, but sometimes didn't know when best to put Mama Mollie in it, too early seemed to stress, but too late meant losses..found it all quite stressful in the end😢
@@FishKeepingAnswers No more excuses lol. Vampire shrimp, and chocolate gourami must make their debut on this channel I will praise you on the choice of betta macrostoma however. I'm considering them myself, but not decided between them or shrimp.
what size cube tank were you going to put the phoenixes in? im thinking of putting phoenixes or chilis in my 10 inch cube but also fearing it might be too small! would you recomment putting them in my nano cube?
Great to see you diversifying and keeping it real, i have always loved your enthusiasm and your great depth of knowledge, but i have been an avid viewer of your neocaridina shrimp videos, and it sounds like you have gotten rid of them and are following a different path, i wish you well... Thank you for the extensive back catalogue of shrimp videos.
I paid 120 for 6 guppies and they all pooped white. Treated for parasites (2 different meds) and also tried treating for bacterial. They literally all died within a month. Seller didnt cover my losses. Leaves a horrible taste in your mouth. Want to order more but im afraid of losing more $
Tell us the companies so we can be smarter consumers. I took your recommendation of using the Shrimp Farm for my shrimp and they arrived in terrible condition and died quickly. Not only did they not honor their DOA policy but they never even responded. I had to issue a chargeback to recoup my losses. If you keep recommending bad breeders and not telling us about bad vendors, you are only hurting your own channel and credibility. I’m honestly about to unsubscribe because your advice has been so bad as of late.
I have never found Richards advice to be bad. His advice has saved me so much money, and made my shrimp colonies explode. You complain about not being given a vendor name, when you complain about the service of a vendor that has previously been given. Keep up the great work Richard 🫶
Also, remember you are buying shrimp through the MAIL. You have to take into consideration how the mail carrier handles the package, temperature fluctuations, and even delays in shipping. Maybe it's not the breeders fault but more so the keepers fault in your situation
"Luckily THESE plants havent seen those videos" had me dying
😂
Haha I was laughing too! 😂
That was funny 😀😀😀
Love the content man!!! Keep it up👊
Thank you 🫶🏻
I love your big plans. I will be glad to see them in working process.
🫶🏻
More tanks is never a bad thing! Look forward to the new content 👍
such a beautiful fish room! love this video. thanks for sharing the not so great stories about fish and shrimp keeping It's unfortuante, not everr seller or breeder has top notch fish/shrimp. can't wait to see the next update!
Really interesting to see all your tanks! Teeny puffers are so cute! Looking forward to the direction your channel is going ☺️
would love to see your future videos about keeping and breeding fish! i always love your videos and really looking forward for more, greetings from Bali, Indonesia.
Thank you. Hopefully the breeding content will be well received. I hear Bali is beautiful 😍
Would love to see a video on your quarantine tank and practices. From someone who learned the hard way, it really is SO important when getting new fishies. ~ Molly
Hi. I have been playing with the idea of making this video. I might bring it higher up the list. Thanks for the suggestion 🫶🏻

I am excited about your plans. We are in sync. That is the same direction my fish room is going. I can’t wait.
Nice 👍🏻
Luckily these plants haven’t seen those videos 😂😂 that made me laugh
😂
Hi Richard. May I ask what is your personal recommendation as a treatment for the internal parasites you have in your livebearers? Cheers.
I can’t wait for more betta content!
Aww Larry 😊 adorable
He’s a menace to society 😂

Beautiful fish room😊
Thank you 🙏🏻
Finally!!!! After 2 years of asking 🎉🎉
I always wonder how much you love Oasis 😂
I don’t get it 🤷🏻♂️
I'll buy the Betta book! Still waiting to pull the trigger on a Betta, tank still maturing. Can't find the Betta of my dreams. I'd like a red or blue with white fin tips.
Nice. I hope you enjoy the book. Would love to hear your thoughts once you’ve read it 👍🏻
I'll have to look into psuedomugils... might suit the liquid rock that comes out of the tap here in SW London. Unfortunately, too hard for RCS, I tried and failed.
I am loving them. Those blue eyes 😍
Oooooh!! Tank room tour!!
Great you will make more fish breeding videos. I’m trying myself. Finally got some female scarlet badis but the male just chases them around so I removed him for now.
I love Scarlet Badass! would love to hear how the breeding goes 🤞🏻
Koi Guppies are nice too. The male and female look almost identical in color
They are such nice guppies.
Thanks for the tour! You're my guide in shrimp's world :)

Hi. Sadly we no longer breed shrimp to sell. Sorry.
@@FishKeepingAnswers Oh, i see. I didn't know. Yes, you mentioned you plan to breed fishes now.
Come to AquaShella Daytona! 😉
Bit far for me unfortunately 😢
@@FishKeepingAnswers that's ok, we'll have you and your aquariums in our hearts
Hi Richard how do I go about buying fish from you.. loved the tour
Hi. Unfortunately, I don’t currently breed any fish or shrimp to sell.
I don't think you'll have issues breeding the Kribs, I started with 3, ended up about 6 months later with 50 odd 😂
Also Mollies but lost many to the parents 😢 I started to use a birthing box, but sometimes didn't know when best to put Mama Mollie in it, too early seemed to stress, but too late meant losses..found it all quite stressful in the end😢
Yeah, they can be veracious baby eaters 😢
Alright its time for you to breed chocolate gouramis as well. And of course vampire shrimp.
😲
@@FishKeepingAnswers No more excuses lol. Vampire shrimp, and chocolate gourami must make their debut on this channel
I will praise you on the choice of betta macrostoma however. I'm considering them myself, but not decided between them or shrimp.
Ok, I will make this promise, I will LOOK INTO breeding Chocolate Gourami 👍🏻
what is the main plant u have u the tanks
Crypt wendetti ‘green’ 👍🏻
what size cube tank were you going to put the phoenixes in? im thinking of putting phoenixes or chilis in my 10 inch cube but also fearing it might be too small! would you recomment putting them in my nano cube?
I was going to put them in a 12” (30cm) cube 👍🏻
Great to see you diversifying and keeping it real, i have always loved your enthusiasm and your great depth of knowledge, but i have been an avid viewer of your neocaridina shrimp videos, and it sounds like you have gotten rid of them and are following a different path, i wish you well...

It's always disappointing when a business disappoints in their quality of fish.
Agreed 😏
all my plants are in sand lol
My fave band and I’m a Yankee lolol
So would you say you are looking to make some betta content...
😂
hi do you sell shrimps > am in uk and looking for mix of shrimps
thanks
Unfortunately we no longer breed shrimp to sell. 😕
I'll have some of your shrimps if I can be considered please

I’m definitely first lol

I wouldn’t want anyone to stay subscribed if they think my advice is bad, so feel free to unsubscribe. 👍🏻
