You've got a wonderful channel. Just been watching your latest videos, plus your video on how you got started. Just wanted to encourage you to keep going... I am in the process of collecting equipment (slowly) to eventually build a fish room. Your content is always super helpful! Thanks. T4
I just got into the hobby a couple months ago. Already have multiple tanks. I was just at my local aquarium group and we did a zoom meeting with you! You're videos are awesome and you're 100% the same person on your channel as you are in person and It's awesome! I plan to get some of your guppies when the weather clears up!
I started with bigbox guppies. they had babies. Now I have 2 tanks and a fry box. The bebies grew stronger and they live longer. I must say I researched for 3 month before starting.
Appreciate the videos I’m experienced hobbiest but love to see you explaining it I’m new to guppies although I’ve kept all the other live bearers over the years
I still remember the first fry that came from my black mollies in my 15 gallon when I was 9 or 10 years old. Obsessed over mollies back in the day. Now thinking back to where we had that 15 gallon tank.... on a tv stand directly above a t.v. - probably not the best spot... haha... still, lifetime hobby
The first Endler guppy male I ever bred was absolutely not at all good looking stock. My daughter kept my bent tails or culls. This guy had a fat body and a bent tail. For some reason he survived every calminaris outbreak, my daughter finding out you put the Prime in before you change the water not after. I have had a nightmare getting any guppies that live. Finally when I was down to 2 females I looked at him and said well I might as well see if I can get this longevity gene he has and cull. That male was 5 years old when he died and he must have been bent during birth because his offspring is hardy as heck and never a bent tail. Just leaving a tribute to my favorite mutt ever. Never lost a guppy who made me cry before.
Hi Michael, love your channel, got a question, been reading online that some people based on temperature or hardness of water they get more male than female, whats your experience on this matter? Thanks
I fell in love with platy to go with my goldfish. I wanna breed platy for different colors.... is advice for any live bearer gonna be good for platy? I see guppy breeding guppy breeding guppy breeding but not a lot about platy. Probably due to guppy$$$. Can I apply guppy info to platy?
Yes, breeding platies and guppies are the same. But you shouldn't put a platy and goldfish together. The goldfish will eat it and the water requirements are different.
If I buy my kid a tank for xmas, should I hang it off the edge of his dresser like you do with the tanks in your fishroom racks? Do the fish enjoy looking down through the glass overhang at the floor, or are they confused that there is air both above and below them?
Hey Michael i have three display tanks but wanted to try breeding guppies, will the guppies breed to overpopulate a tank? and is there a way to stop guppies from over breeding?
Hey Michael I'm just wondering what are some online stores you would recommend for starter breeding colonies of 6 or so guppies (2 males/4 females). I see that you only sell pairs and I want to start out with that small colony of more females to males.
Instructions should be : Steps as follows………. 1. Get a tank 2. Put water into tank 3. Put a male and a female guppy into the tank 💥 Try not to blink you will miss when you go from 2 to a million

Hoping to make its own to your club next year. Love the shirt and the channel!
He's alive!!!! Good to know you're around youtube.
@@catfishcave379 Who is alive. I don't get it.
@@catfishcave379 you can’t get rid of me that easy
@@MichaelsFishRoom if you come down we’ll hop in a ditch and catch some fish

This is very informative tutorial, Professor Michael. Short & to the point.
Thanks!
Wild Fish Tanks 's shirts are the best! I just ordered two more of the new designs
See you at the next Space Coast Club meeting Sarah!
It's really your fault.
Great video Mike. Info is spot on for those just getting into guppies. Have a great weekend! Stay safe
Thanks, you too!
Not going into breeding but so much great info in this one.. very simple and direct.. thanks bro.. great job as always

See!
Taco was quite entertaining today. I think he was looking for those culls you mentioned!
Lol, loves them because, you know, they are tender and delicious.
Though I know all of that information due to the fact that I am breeding Guppies. But your explanation is so well. Thank you.
Thanks. I like to keep it simple.
Yes, I have bas leer! 😊 the breeding goes a little too fast sometimes. I get so much guppies.
That’s good though!
Thank you for the information. However, I could not focus because your flowerhorn buddy behind you was spazzing out. I loved every second! Peace.
Taco is the man!
Great video! I always love the bloopers haha
Glad you like them!
the bloopers part 😂😂
Always the best!
Hi Peter. Really cool video you got here. I love you!
Hey, thanks Marsha!
I love hob filters and put the sponge on the intake cause then it still has good sucking power and doesn’t suck up fry
Nice
Good afternoon friend
Hi
😂 you surprise me you forgot the most important detail turning the lights off and put it on a Barry White album
No need! LOL

I have no scientific proof, only experience breeding. ua-cam.com/video/pXmztVrW5ak/v-deo.html
Great video Michael
Thanks!
You are excelent guppy lover.
Saludos desde Uruguay.
Thanks!
as always short and to the point :D
That's what she said 😂
Awesome video dude. My guppies feed on algea and newly hatched snails believe it or not.
That is awesome!
good stuff
Thanks!
i bought a trio of red dragon guppies a few weeks ago and they have so many fry already lol
cool

Thanks!
May I just say also applicable to breeding Platies.
Really most live bearers.
Mutt guppies are the S#%!. Got mine from you...and the are still going strong
Noice!
If I buy my kid a tank for xmas, should I hang it off the edge of his dresser like you do with the tanks in your fishroom racks? Do the fish enjoy looking down through the glass overhang at the floor, or are they confused that there is air both above and below them?
They don’t care.
i want the shirt.. 😂😂
www.wildfishtanks.com/
any idea when the black panda guppies will be back in stock?
Yes! Next week, they are growing out! Make sure to sign up for notifications on them!
I notice you never mention Tetra feed. Do you not like the brand.
Nope. I mention the brands I use and like.
Hey Michael i have three display tanks but wanted to try breeding guppies, will the guppies breed to overpopulate a tank? and is there a way to stop guppies from over breeding?
Depends on the set up and your goal.
If you could pick any guppy on your site for a breeding for profit tank, which would you pick?
Red Dragon
@@MichaelsFishRoom Yea, that's what i was thinking.
Hey Michael I'm just wondering what are some online stores you would recommend for starter breeding colonies of 6 or so guppies (2 males/4 females). I see that you only sell pairs and I want to start out with that small colony of more females to males.
Not sure, I would just buy from my website.
@@MichaelsFishRoom 👍
Can I keep a Betta w guppies?
You can do what ever you want! (I wouldn’t though)
The only fish store here in Vicksburg, MS (Petsence) only sells MALE guppies...dammit
But you can order pairs at www.michaelsfishroom.com
They love live micro worms.
Cool
1 quality male +2 quality females + Dr. Bassleer = OMG! where do I put all these fry?
Send them to me!
The problem with breeding guppies is to stop them from doing so ! 😂
Lol
Lol. Play some Barry White
LOL
Fish do not eat a lot - The price of high end foods imo is mute . Buy the best and your fish will do much better.
yup
❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊
👍👍👍
I like guppies and all...but they just breed too slow
Oh, yeah…..said no breeder ever.
Instructions should be :
Steps as follows……….
1. Get a tank
2. Put water into tank
3. Put a male and a female guppy into the tank
💥
Try not to blink you will miss when you go from 2 to a million
LOL
Very brief haha
you sound a bit like peter griffin :)
I get that a lot.
First?
Winner!
Haha.
