Thanks for coming by! Glad to have you in the fish room!
I have missed your videos, glad to see you back❤️
This is the best redtail care guide out there
Happy to see you back at it man. #palmeraquaticsforever 😂
I have the same pool for my koi during winter. I made the mistake of completely draining it during the summer when the koi was outside in the pond. The liner dried out making the liner brittle and it got a hole in it. Highly recommend these!
Loving them so far 💖
Nicee!. Plywood tank + RTC= 😁🐟
My Red tail was bought 10 months ago at 1.9 inches and is 20.5 inches now. And he is growing fast...He is definitely going to hit that 2 foot in a year mark.
Love your channel bro, I'm a new subscriber 👍🏻
Great video brother! I went and hit those buttons for her 👍
awsome video
These are perfect for common plecos to
Wow. I haven’t seen you make a video for a bit.
I want a red tail catfish looks like this would be a good fit instead of a tank
Awesome video! Question me and my wife bought a 2000 gallon intex pool what do u guys use to heat a pool of this size?
it’s inside so as long as they keep the room temp high enough there good
it seems that she likes fd3 👌👌👌
I have a question could I keep a red tail in a outdoor pond in Illinois if I put a heater in it
..I have red tail cat fish startingly it took feed ...but now my fish didn't take feed why. ? What's the problem how to solve
Wow I couldn't afford to feed them. 🐟🌿👍😊
I’m form Minnesota too!! How are they in the cold?
Where are the shop updates?
Where did you order the pellets from
my dream fish
Does it need airpump? The red tail fish in the aquarium?
I had a 1 1/2 foot red tail. Could barely afford to feed it. Was gunna set up a pool in the basement, but I had a baby instead.
You going to do a live anytime soon?
im in love with this pond concept, especially after hearing the prices... where is a good place to buy one of these ?
Walmart
Have a very important question my retails are probably about 10 to 12" long I did it to tank changeover and they become very inactive and not eating But look very very healthy
Everytime you change your redtail into a new tank or pond, they tend to do that.
When I moved mine from 1000 gallon pond into a 4000 gallon pond, he became inactive and refused to eat for 2 wks. But he was back to his old self after that.
Next time you’re in the area, stop by.
Do you still have them ? Looking for one badly lmk if anything ! :)
what is the big black fish hanging around in the corner, please?
Giant Gourami

First view comment and like let’s go
i have a question, they will stop growing if you don't have enough space?
If you don't have enough space for a redtail, don't get one.
These fish are huge and strong.
I rescued mine from an irresponsible fish keeper who had him in a 20 gallon tank. He now lives in my 4000 gallon Koi pond and he seems happy.
To answer you question, he was 12" in a 20 gallon aquarium at a yr old. So that is a myth.
Don't they need a bigger place than that?
Yes

An inch a month seems a bit slow, my baby titus has grew 3 inches in the month i have had him lol i also heard you say a grow out tank is a bad idea but i cant see how? I mean i know you need to have a plan but i feel like the statement should have been worded better lol grow outs are good but always be 2 or 3 steps ahead for reds, they grow fast as a general rule. I say you need to start them as babies in around a 75 and within a few to 5 or 6 months they will need to be moved into a 125, time could be a little less or a little longer depending on each individual fish. Thats why its important to be a couple steps ahead. Genetics of the fish parents has a role in size, if the parents were small then you probably will get a nice slow grower but if the parents were 4 1/2 feet long you probably are going to have to move them to a 125 sooner than later because it will probably grow super fast. An inch a week is on the max grow size but you should honestly plan based on that idea. NEVER buy a redtail unless you already have at least a 125 in your arsenal otherwise you will more than likely be caught off guard and not prepared for the monster fish. However with that said theres not a whole lot to worry about when it comes to reds. I think they get way too much negative press, they are not the fastest grower in aquariums. Although they will exceed an arowanas overall length an arowana can grow faster to its max size than a redtail, reaching a foot or more in less time than a redtail can reach the same length. Also arowana are natural jumpers in the wild, its how they eat in some situations shooting out of the water for bugs on tree branches. This makes them extremely bad for dying in home aquariums by either hitting the glass and breaking their spines or busting through the lid and drying out. Reds get big, thats about the only thing you have to plan for besides the fact they can be known for being spooked and sending that armored skull of theirs through your pretty aquarium glass haha all in all just have space, they arent mean, just hungry babies. People mistake hunger for aggression and thats sorta sad and also puts a bad name on reds. They are little water puppies, just like the oscar he just ate lol my plan for my red is to trap minnows and other game fish and keep them in the 75 he is in now as a hospital tank of sorts, feed them medicated food to make sure they are parasite free and then feed them as his main diet with the occasional tilapia fillet and some shrimp to keep it a variety and give him an easy meal once or twice a week. I am absolutely in love with the redtail catfish and as soon as i get my pool pond up and running i will likely get another one and maybe a spotted gar or florida gar, one that stays in the 3 to 4 foot mark and not a gator gar that gets like 7 feet long haha
As a redtail owner I can tell you for a fact that a canister filter is not a good idea. Especially when they get to be full grown.
My canister filter only took me so far before I had to make my own filter from a 55 gallon drum. That runs my 4000 gallon 18.5' x 8.5' pond.
Owning a redtail catfish can be very enjoyable if you have a proper size setup.
Do those two red tails fight? I bought two babies and I'm growing them up in my hot tub LOL. They seem to fight a bit even as 3 inch babies.
Hey would u like to join one of my live show and talk about my favorite thing fish
Can I keep a red tail in a 450 8 foot length 4 foot width 24 height
Do you already have one?
@@datoc9065 no
Baked Doritos i highly suggest you don’t get one. As bad as it sounds it’s not the best idea in the long run, unless you have massive space, knowledge, time, money, and more it’s really not the best fish, I suggest almost anything that can fit into a 150 gallon tank or smaller, there are so many fish with personality’s and also the fish community may kind of reject you because of the fact you keep a red tail. Not saying you can’t but just think about the future because these guys live pretty long and not many people will take them if you don’t want them
@@datoc9065 but they’re amazing fish 😫
Hey jw were find the pool ponds at please want some red tail catfish
Well I know you love your fish but the pond doesn't seem like a place for these fish...they don't look very happy and need some environment that is more natural that they might enjoy.
Three things that need removed from our hobby-
1. The common pleco
2. Convict cichlids
3. Cheap ass pool ponds
🤣 someone's jelly
One thing that needs to be removed from our hobby....people like this lmao. FYI convicts are perfect feeder fish JS
@@AquatikGuru Thats what I'm saying. What the hobby need is less people like you and more people that actually love the fish in the hobby, such as Convict cichlids... people like you give the hobby a bad rap.
@@dallashenry1746 don't hate cuz ya can't relate 👋🎤
@@unorthodoxaquatics lady you obviously need help I'm not even talking to you and or about you. If you can take care of a pool full of big cat fish than all props 👏 to you, love what your doing but I can't and don't won't nothing that big so I keep 125g, 75, and 55g... I watch you guys with big fish to fill that want. I'm fine on that stuff but, back to what I was trying to say if people that put bad names on the any fish for new hobbyist than they obviously don't share the same passion as me for these fish WE take from natural... its whatever though.
She has no idea what she is talking about... I was done after I heard "and this is cheaper than an aquarium". 😑 when he had clearly brought that up..
annoying fish
