Doug is a great guy with some AWESOME guppies! Just drives a POS!
Why thank you my friend. I'm only sorry I didn't offer you something to drink.
Probably for that reason, he didn't trust me to make him a drink :)
Exactly!
@@DGrey I really like the subtle message on the tank's bottom at 14:53
Lol
This has got to be one of my all time favorites videos. I subscribe to DGrey..his jokes are clean corny enough for me to tell my kiddos..two thumbs up
He is a good guy, for sure!
Came for the fish...stayed for the poster on the door.
Oh yeah......
Is that his granddaughter?
Another awesome video, thank you Mike.
Thanks Laura! Favorite part?
Oh gosh I'm not sure, really enjoyed all of the video. I like to hear about developments of new strains.
Great! Thanks again for watching!
Love the SOUND of a fishroom. Not going down that rabbit hole....Again!
LOL
Loved the video
Thabks
Beautiful fish!!

I really enjoyed watching this video.
Glad you enjoyed it
Cool guy , good solid video, many thanks !
Thanks!
Great video and the fish are awesome well-done
Thanks! Doug does a good job!
Fantastic guppies
Doug makes a great guppy! What is your favorite?
Great video. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching! What was your best part?
@@MichaelsFishRoom My favorite fish in that tour are his half-black AOCs, beautiful. But mostly I just loved looking at his tank, especially the mix of plants and just observing how he keeps all of these tanks. Thank you kindly.
Yeah it was a lot of fun! Part 2 is out now!
Awesome fish room
Yeah it was. What did you like best?
Clear and clean eyes
?
You both are hilarious! My husband was asking what I was laughing so loudly at. 😆💖 Can't wait for part 2!!
Thanks!
Hey I am starting to breed again and you are one of the main reasons I am in to guppies so much and Cory because he also talks about guppies a lot but you give me so much inspiration to do as good as you. Someday I hope to have amazing guppies like you Michael thank you. 😀
Glad I can help! Good luck!
@@MichaelsFishRoom olá você envia para São Paulo Brazil?
@@IvoBFeitosa no sorry
2 of my favorite people!
Doug and the fish room butler?
@@MichaelsFishRoom The Fishroom Butler is pretty sweet, but I didn't add the butler... Should I????
So I am one of your favorites? ☺️
Very nice pure strain guppies. Love the green water tanks.
Yeah, he does a nice job! What was your favorite?
@@MichaelsFishRoom They are all awesome, every single strain. I like the snail that eats the dead guppies (apple snail)
No he said it ate DUCKWEED!
@@MichaelsFishRoom Lol my bad.
LOL Doug is a funny guy!!! Notable quotes "Visiting the Floor!", "Crashing Subaru Snails!" And "Walking the Dog!!!" Almost lost my coffee on that one! And he keeps great pics on the back of his door! Great video Mike! Thanks Doug!!!
Thanks Denny! We hit it off right away!
I think that was Subaru Sucks.
Huh?
I SWEAR by the warm water for birthing male guppies! I've tried it for a year now, and it's seems to be true! Every tank with cold water, I got all females. When I kept the tank 80-82° F , I got many more males.
BTW, you two are hilarious together! 😂😂😂
See! LOL No science behind it, just experience. Thanks so much and thanks for watching!
Like the poster on the door. One needs inspiration when breeding guppies 😍
So true!
Like that pic on the door lol nice video
Lol...so does Doug
Supper Guppy gratulation. :)
Lol
Good vid!!!
Thanks!
Lets not ignore the fact that Doug plays the drums for his guppies...
Is that good or bad?
Awesome
Thanks! What did you like most?
The fact that he is one of the Mac Daddy guppy guys. So cool. His room is real. The interview is real. Obviously respects you.
And we are buds!
Great channel!!!!!!!
Thanks!
Super wow.. I wish I could had one.. At home coming to you.. 🙏🙏🙏🙏💓💓💓
Thanks for warching
Guppies guppies everywhere. Never seen a "Fishroom Butler" before.
I was in heaven! What was your favorite strain?
@@MichaelsFishRoom Prob the one that he gets to make up his own name for. How cool is that?
Very!
Now that's a fishroom.
What did you like about it?
Mike : “ Say hi, Doug. ”
Doug : “ Hi, Doug. ”
LOL
I could totally become a Guppy-Lady (instead of cat-lady!) I am a wee bit jealous of this fish room and genetics!
Just a wee bit?
Nice
Thanks! What did you like best?
The albino Moscow lol
Hey....killer video.....
Thanks
When I had Aquariums in high school,I used distilled water,because the Ph is Nuetral.Then with the filter,I’d pour water from a already set up fresh water tank,because natural bacteria already present.Good way to speed up fish introduction.
Cool
In south Jersey too...wonder how local. Gloucester co here. Beautiful guppies..my favs. I'd be honored to give some of his culls a happy home. :)
I’m in Camden County. He doesn’t give culls away.
Doug was like 'Why are you talking shit about my car? I don't care about car rivalries.'
Because it is garbage.....LOL
So unique!美しいですね。
はい! What part of Japan do you live in?
@@MichaelsFishRoom さん、goodmorning!
Okinawaです😃🌺

My Japanese name is 山田、but everyone calls me 山ちゃん. はじめまして。

So crazy to hear how big my uncle Luke was in this hobby before he died. I'm still on the hunt on trying to find some of his lines.
Good luck
Cool fish room awesome tour!!! Well done!!
Thanks Don! Hope you had a great New Year!
K. Subarus don't suck 😂😂 lmao to funny
LOL
Thanks for the video, looking forward to part 2.
Thanks for watching! What was your favorite part? Part 2 will be out Friday!
@@MichaelsFishRoom In the beginning of the video the "Fire Black Moscow's", got me hook. I'm a guppy fanatic, we specialize in guppies and I'm always in the look out for new or rare strains. Looking forward to the next video, I want to see how a master breeder raise guppies. Thanks for the video.
Me too!
Hes a keeper because of the wall poster
100%
Thanks for letting us see your stuff Doug.
He is a swell guy!
Great fish room tour. Doug seems cool, laid back and not a guppy snob. Thanks for sharing. Cheers
+Lumpydog yeah, and he is a great!
Really enjoying seeing all these. Just had a huge dump of fry. so excited.
lol “Dump”
my dumbo female guppy is 2 and she just had a bacth of fry. still going strong. shes a big one two .
Cool
Like the pic of the chick on the door the best! Lol
@14:19
Me too.
I'm so happy to see that world class guppy breeders don't want to to kill the ones that are close to what they want like I've been having a hard time with
Thanks
I was told the higher the heat and pH the chances for males is greater. I tried that and it worked. I have two males from one batch and a couple of females from a cooler slightly lower pH.
Thanks for the info!
Lol! Just saw the Subaru "sign" 😂😂😂
I made my own breed once but they were quite unspectacular. They looked like the standard silver body and tail, but the tail had a nice yellow half moon 🌙 on it that was VERY well defined. I was able to breed them a few times but they had only female fry... and then the male died. When I tried various male types to mate with the females, I never got the coloring again. Doug has WAY more patience than I do!
HE sure does! Aht did you use to cross?
@@MichaelsFishRoom Random junk males and females with similar colors... nothing fancy. Was just trying to develop a consistent strain.
Hard to do with mutts.
@@MichaelsFishRoom quite true...it was really just for fun for awhile when I had a few spare tanks to good with. Seriously though, thanks for sharing Doug's room. I love fishroom tours!
Take care.
I love the picture on the door👀
SSSSHHHHH that is a secret that only people who stay for the bloopers can see!
Was about to comment that
Cough cough.....it’s a secret
Amazing,
I'm from indonesia breeder guppy
Cool
I really liked the yellow deltas, half black blues, half-black AOCs, and black moscows.
The extreme serious and super technical talk put me off a bit, but it's what I've come to expect from guppy breeders. When is part two?
Can you help me with the fish my wife put on my plate? It's dead.
Part 2 Will be Friday.
For your fish, I would do a 100% plate change, add Salt and Pepper and dig in.
Looking forward to part 2!
Watch it now!
Does the green water help with the tanks being overcrowded?
The tanks are not over crowded.
love to hear more from breeders on the disease end , of coarse im in medical field so go figure.Albino... awesome .
Part 2 on Friday!
I got a v light baby from my Moscow blacks. Unfortunately, it didn’t survive, so I never found out if it was albino or a Moscow firework.
Ummm.....ok.
Always that I see a fishroom tour I want more tanks... I have a mts problem for sure xD
You're welcome! How many tanks do you have?
Only 6 and I dont have more because my parents will kick me out haha, By the way awesome guppys thanks for sharing Michael
Thanks for watching!
The Mrs told me no more
And you listened?
Lahat maGanda ang mga guffies mo bro gaNda nag alaga din ako kaso cross breeding
Que?
No heater in all the tanks and the room temperature is 70? Everything I've read says to raise temperatures for breeding 78-82 or so but this guy is having great success at 70 and I'm sure he knows what he is doing. Can someone explain? I'm not a breeder but what temperature is best?
The warmer the more active they will be and usually more males. They will breed in the low 70's if conditions are right.
I started with a few guppies 2 yrs ago in a 40 gallon tank, I now have four more tanks assorted colors and was wondering how to market them to sell? I'm not sure of all the correct identification or price ranges...
That’s the secret.
I have 5 guppies and 2 zebra danios in a ten gallon tank. Would it be ok to add a betta. I need a center piece.
Nope
Thanks Michael that was a very interesting video to watch, guppies are a really nice wee fish. I think your guppies are nicer but they were good too.
Lol...his guppies are breed to show quality!
All lace snakeskin seem like they fade out in the middle of the tail. Mine do to
I wonder why?
Wow beautiful absolutely beautiful love the colors 👌mustory snail is the same as apple snail I have the one's with the yellow shell awsome to have in the tenk
Thanks! And thanks for watching!
Airborne?! Thats such a terrifying thing.
Sure is!
Im not a fan of yellows usually, but those are nice for yellows!
Ric! How you doing?
I’m good. Been busy with the baby. But I’ve been getting back into building fish stuff. Just built a water change system thingy for some of my classroom tanks. As I’m getting a little bit more time and energy I’ve been putting it into fish stuff, will eventually come back to UA-cam when things settle more. I’m mostly focusing on guppies again, plecos, and a few other tanks for fun.
Can’t wait to see when you get back!
Hahahahahaha doug got you with the tank sign! LMAO😂👍🏻
Lol
hey michael i just wana ask you if you put salt into your pleco tank during a water change? i kinda pick up that habit from watching some lfs doing it for killing harmful disease for our fishes. Do you do it? Thanks for answering. 😊
Nope...I don’t use salt in any tank.
Befor the thing gets out of control. Best line every in a fish video hands down.
LOL....he had some good ones!
Nice your very informative and beautiful set up, you are not too far off Mike. I wish I could order guppies from you do you ship to Ontario Canada.
Maybe one day!
Grasses are called that because the spots look like grass seeds. :)
Really? I had no idea!
As I understand it, these are the meanings of the names for guppy patterns:
Snakeskin = Fine pattern of wavy lines on body, usually metallic
Cobra = Vertical bars on the body, may or may not also have a snakeskin pattern
(There's also an extreme form of snakeskin that is basically a bunch of small dots, but AFAIK, it doesn't have a name)
Mosaic = Coarse pattern of wavy stripes on fins
Lace = Fine pattern of wavy stripes on fins
Leopard = Round spots on fins (may have smear-like spots, but not joined into stripes like mosaics)
Galaxy = Strain name that went viral; not associated with a particular gene. Usually refers to guppies with both snakeskin and lace patterns that are not red or yellow.
Depends on what you read! Lol
Also I think in Europe they call the same names with different meanings.
first time j heard his voice.sounds familiar.its the grey guppies.he does have a yt channel.
Yup
How do u mange to stop the guppies eating then babys ? Iam doing well but always the mum or dad eat them most of time so inhave to catch the babbies as quick as can when shes finshed birthing
Give them plenty of hiding spots.
@@MichaelsFishRoom thank you i do have quite a few live plants but there mainly at the top of tank ill try putting somemore in thanks :)
I want to start a community tank with guppies and shubunkin gold fish would that be a good idea.
Nope
@@MichaelsFishRoom would you have any suggestions for a good tank mate for the gold fish?
What’s the best way to house a small livebearer’s fry (i.e. platy)?
I colony breed, but it really depends on your situation.
I have a 60 (65?) gallon community aquarium with a small assortment with plenty of room to grow. I did rescue 2 overly harassed females that thought her births were simply new plates brought out for the all-you-eat buffet. So I ended up with 3 fry leftover in a breeder box, and decided to keep the group. Basically, if more females are harassed to the brink of death, I don’t plan on keeping the plastic separated in place. I really don’t want 50 platy in my aquarium, have no small mom n’ pop store anywhere nearby. So, nature will therefore take it’s course. NOW: lmao, what’s a good grow out environment for them? Right now they’re in a small plastic critter carrier with a bubbler and a bit of small plastic plant to hide in for comfort. I know the ammonia levels will slowly rise without filtration and a water change will be on the plate, but with fry less than half the size of a tadpole, that’s gonna suck.......The End.
I'd love to know what you guys think of my fish that are the cross breed of the Japan blue gold double sword tail Guppies and supposedly a Mosaic Cobra Guppie. The babies were amazing colored up blue silvery, black . I loss a whole tank of about 60 fish the temp dropped and my heater was shot smh. I fished out 5 living ones and now they are thriving again. I had them all in a small tank with a few other male guppies..I'm transferring them to a 20 gallon tall this weekend.
They are probably nice looking mutts.
those floating plants are mostly Amazon frogbit right?
Some are.
@@MichaelsFishRoom really like the tour by the way 😆jokes
Very true I have about 300 ivory mystery snails and they love duckweed !
Snails?
🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Yup
Part two ??
Friday 5PM
What are the tank size?
20
Sure that a breeder here in Asia once told me that they call it ‘grass’ because the pattern on the tail is reminiscent of grass seed. Doesn’t make much sense to me either, but hey-ho...
Lol....”hey ho”
Micheal....question. I was thinking of trying a stock tub pond.i saw Fish blogger Rachael O’Leary tub vids.If its outside,what live bearers do better in temp drops?im in Fl,not that I have to worry about cold.
I have 11 tubs with guppy’s. Have you seen any of those videos?
Michael's Fish Room Hey,I saw them videos.Very interesting layouts.
Thanks!
How to grow green algae
Lots of light.
Hey Mike quick question my nephew want one of my guppy but my sister says the airstones and his asthma don't mix what can the little guy do to get a tank his Mom will like?🤷🏻♂️
Don't put an airstone in. They are not needed in most cases.
@@MichaelsFishRoom I didn't know that I thought it was a must one be in their we are going this weekend thanks!!🤣
Freelife Styles hope he likes the fish!
My guppies don't have an air stone..just saying.
I don’t quite understand the white on the tail. Thought that indicates that the tail was still growing but he thinks it’s an indicator of water quality. Now this may just be in his room. Have you experienced this as well Michael?
I think there are 2 kinds of white on the tail. 1 that indicates more growth and the other is like a fringey white, possibly fungus starting, that is from water quality dropping. I think the blood flow that the males need to get to the end of their tail is not functioning as well as it should at that point. The tail degrades rapidly after that.
D Grey thanks for the clarification.
What a great fish room..so much great strains ...that diseas i never heard before...is there any micrbiological veryfication?l Very nice to see ..thumbs up 👍👍👍👍
I’ll ask Doug.
Hi Bernhard. There are articles on it online. It was initially thought to be a columnaris type disease. Guppies returning from shows normally are weaker at first but this affected people's entire fish rooms. Could have been air-born disease. guppiesbystanshubel.netfirms.com/Fighting%20Guppy%20Disease.htm
any help? 6:20 i wanna get a female like this but i cant figure out how to
HAve you contacted Doug?
What type of guppy is featured on the poster on the door? Moontail?
The extremely rare Borgata guppy!
That is NudeTail guppy!!!
ya know i was looking for this half a year ago after watching it a year+ ago cause i got guppies then when im not looking for it i found it again -_-
Weird!
What does he do with his fish he calls junk? Or garbage? Are they for sale? I'm not breeder, but I love all guppies. His just look so beautiful and healthy. Not all your tanks are going to be prefect either. Not when you have as many as he does,lol. I love his fish room
Not sure what he does TBH
Hi Mike and hello from Malaysia. Just one question for you, do you need some kind of papers to bring in fishes from other countries ?
Depends on the country.
Sorry Mike, what I mean is your country.
I don’t know, sorry.
