I absolutely love your videos Kiddo.👋🏽
That first tank done in congo tetras rope fish synodontis cats and congo native cichlids would be gorgeous
The worst part about that first tank is they have an over stocked tank of dyed fish right next to it.
those are glo fish, which aren't dyed.
@@gouldschick101Yea, they’re genetically modified with jellyfish (why they’re so hardy)
the fish you are thinking of is indian glass fish with injected ink, which isnt really a practice anymore considering illegal in many countries
@@gouldschick101 Ahh we don't have those in my country.
@@sebastianhofer4950 Nah not those. You can see in the video. They're GLO fish not dyed though from what the other comments say.
I once had a petco employee tell me that tetras are “racist fish” because they only like their own kind. I nodded my head in agreement and slowly backed away…..😂
Ah yes. Because of course my Black Neon Tetras k****d everything else in the Tank when I've still had one......
🤔 Might explain though why they were the last Survivors😂
Did that Employee mean a specific Species of Tetra or Tetras in general?
Water bears are indeed fully aquatic. They're masters of every environ.
truly incredible
the NPC part is pure comedy
thx!
Well something got horribly wrong with my tank.
i woke up today with murky water and out of the roof nitrite in my GUPPY tank.
Turns out, le cat pissed in it...
I wish i was joking, that little goblin used to sleep on it, now it's his litter box.
Chris will pull up. He said cats are a Chinese delicacy
😱 Hope, the Fish survived and are safe.
Do you have another Tank from which you can take cycled Water?
Hope, if they survived, not many of them will die😞
@@Firestar-TV I had a few loss but most survived, they even liked the 75% water change.
It was relatively small in a 240l, but definitely noticeable when i opened the lid.
@@SaitoGray nice that most survived. I hope, it won't change within the next few Days
@@Firestar-TV seems to be fine for the moment, but I do daily 20% change, that probably help.
We've had our little pea puffer for about six months.
We can confirm that it regularly sleeps on a leaf nightly.
Highly interactive with people, and adorably curious.
the cutest tiny fish
Inspired by this channel just started my first tank and quickly realized that some of these setups I've been admiring are actually several hundred dollars worth of flex 😶.
Omg Millie as head of marketing is the cutest thing I've ever seen
she's trying her best to keep up with modern social media trends
Have a 20 long well planted ecosystem tank. My betta passed a few weeks ago was sad but my African dwarf frogs started mating. Have tons of eggs and tadpoles rn. I’m so excited. Had to share 😊
aw rip :(
Congrats on the tads tho!
The local zoo is free for residents on Monday, and I'm most excited for the "Rainforest" conservatory. Because they have habitat enclosures with fish. Like a big rainbow fish tank. And ofc capybaras.
Oh it's also my 4 year anniversary with my boyfriend so I'm excited to go with him too. And show him the fish of course.
one of my dream goals is to pet a capybara. Japan look out I'm coming for u
San Antonio has an aquarium with capybaras, and you can pet them... yw
And that's why I started working at my local Petco 3 weeks ago! I've been in the hobby for 12yrs now, and all my tanks at work are now planted, species only display tanks!!!!
this is some highkey tech bc now you can get discounts.
Favourite sea food? Right now I'm between salmon (partial sea fish) and 'Hollandse Nieuwe', which is salted herring. I always eat my salted herring with onions.
I always fry my salmon filets first skin down to get that crispy.
Thanks for reminding me to get some of that sweet Hollandse nieuwe tomorrow
what would i do with a tank of that dimention in the first video?
Palidarium with banded archerfish! you could really see them hunting in that size of tank!
Shrimpfish can be kept in captivity. I traveled across Singapore, there they have shrimp fish in their aquarium called Sentosa. Absolutely beautiful place, tickets are expensive but they're worth it!
so cool
this channel gave me inspiration to tell my boss that the fish tank is too bland it’s 115 gallons with no plants
oof! good luck bro!
The frogbit in the background is my new lavalamp... couldn't look away
hahaha
The NPC part had me on the floor. The natural talent 😂😂
hey thx man LOL
Bro liked his own comment😱💀
My first fish was a blue acara that I was taking care of for my brother while he was moving, then he didn't want it back. I knew it was a cichlid, but I didn't know there were so many different cichlids from different parts of the world, or that they didn't all need more alkaline water parameters. It kind of blew my mind to find out that even tilapia are cichlids. lol
8:59 Thats def a freshwater mite. I would get those out of there and do a water change. Tho I could be wrong because that image doesnt actually show much aside from a blob with legs which is what a mite looks like honestly.
oh shoot
thankyou for the info!
These people with their first tanks blow me away! I wish I had as much info about tanks when I started. FFT would have saved me so much failure lol.
Also I wonder if every Monday there’s an influx of tank plant sales around the world 🤔
Qotw …. Sushi, salmon would be my favorite
Great video as always!
My goldfish did fine with plants. Had a wall of anacharis across the back, anubias covering driftwood, and a Madagascar lace for the focal point. The goldfish were great. I had to return a couple mystery snails. They ignored the anacharis, that I purchased for them to eat, and focused on the anubias.
Happy FFTday everyone!
Favorite seafood- scallops. Delicious when prepared correctly . I also love me some little neck clams steamed with a wine, garlic & butter reduction.
scallops are my go to at sushi!
I was hoping to find out what the little guy on the glass was [8:44] I don't see a comment on it though :(
It's a tardigrade.
@@victoriasrandomstuff Oh, I thought those were purely microscopic. A quick search has confirmed that the largest one on record was 2mm, and when the video zooms out, that seems about right. Thanks, I learned something today :)
@@victoriasrandomstuffi had no idea that they could get that large, thanks for the info!
QOTW - Blue Crabs steamed in cheap beer and lots of OLD BAY SEASONING. Shrimp steamed with lots of OLD BAY SEASONING
aw yum
hello,i keep fish for over 40 years,i like your videos,greetings from old germany.btw you save my monday,keep it coming
Angelfish and discus being cichlids blows people's minds when I tell them that
I'm surprised a Canadian knows its already Tuesday in Australia..Mr know his Timezone Nice!😊
i get comments from Australians haha
This videos gives me more and more knowlage each video to care my fishes
I would say my favorite seafood growing up was shark. It was available at the local grocery store butcher growing up, it is amazing. Similar flavor to other sport fish. I agree with crab over lobster. Rock cod and ling cod are very good. My favorite seafood dish I had was a King fish we caught sailing between St. Lucia and St. Vincent. It was cooked up soooo good. mmmm.
QotW: Nori for Sushi (Algae i think), and very rarely cause very expensive… northern sea shrimps with mayo on … what’s Brötchen in english? Buns? breadrolls? It’s called Nordseekrabbensalatbrötchen here.
Sushi and Sashimi are my fav!!!! Would eat it everyday! Also coconut shrimp…. So good! Love your channel, thanks for all your hard work!- Allie
Keep this woman away from your tanks. lol
But what kind of sushi and sashimi? Those cover a *lot* of fish 😂
I have no idea how I wound up on the fishkeeper side of youtube, but I just want to say I love your videos (educational and funny!) and I just went to a local specialty fish store to ask about putting plants in the guppy tank I've had since I was seven.
also, I don't know my favourite seafood because I had actually good sushi yesterday and can't decide anymore.
1:37 🤔 maybe Octopus or Squid. Looks pretty Escape proof. The Problem with Cephalopods is though that you also need a Emergency Tank, you can put it in, if it should release Ink.
Or maybe African Clawed Frogs🐸
thanks for brightening my day chris ^-^
hey u got it
I'm just speaking for my two local Petco stores. The people who actually work on the fish area seem to be pretty knowledgeable and good. Actually one of them told me about CO2 and led me down the road to finding MJ aquascaping and starting my journey.
PetSmart around me however is a crap show.
Australian salon fried in a pan for 15 minutes with herbs and butter with a squeeze of lemon juice is my favourite sae food. Ps great video 👍
I'm a vegan so I haven't had seafood in years, but salmon is one of the few foods I actually miss eating. There's nothing like that oily savoury flavour...
Vegan as well...my favorite seafood is seaweed--I don't think I could pick just one type though. :) Salmon (dead ones) smell so bad I can't imagine eating one, but lots of people do. Even cooked they smell like death. But if I miss anything animalian, it's probably tuna from a can, so who am I to talk? ;)
The little mystery guy looks like it could be a baby scud based on size, color, and general body shape. I don’t know much ‘bout scuds. It certainly is not a tardigrade though!
The big main fireworks display in Ottawa tonight!
(...to answer another important QOTW)
I pretty much always go for fish n chips in restaurants where available, often while out to buy aquarium fish. Last time I went to Ottawa for fish was the first time I went to a Red Lobster.
tuna, fried conger eel, flounder ceviche, and some other white fish is my fish to eat! as far as sea invertebrates go, scallops are fantastic and i’ve recently learned to appreciate oysters. def more of a fish enjoyer tho
Watching on a Friday
i love the videos !!!!! than you for making everyone's Mondays so much better
yeah, I mentioned in a chat I needed to get some cichlid food and someone quipped back... "oh, I did not know you kept cichlids, what kind?"
I said... "Panda Angels, Blue Silver Angels, Pinoy Angels, Marble Angels, Platinum Angel." 😁😁🤣🤣🙄🙄 LMFAO
QOTW: Sushi for sure, preferably with salmon. I honestly think if you cook salmon you ruin it 😂
Also, this is the first time I’ve caught your Monday upload on the same day, and I can safely say that it did indeed make my Monday better! 😁💛
I love seeing beginners put in so much effort to look after their fishies instead of just buying a fish and putting it in nerd gravel water
.. As someone who has a tank of snails in blue gravel I'm offended
@@darkfrostWcueAndspeedpaint did you at least taste test a few of the pebbles and/or snails?
@@kaycgrocks what-
@@darkfrostWcueAndspeedpaint :)
@@kaycgrocks ANSWER PLEASE I'M SO CONFUSED
"I need more nitrates"
I felt that in my soul... 💀
hahaha
4:48 if the betta is chill I’d go for a few or ten of those dwarf shrimp that are the same kind as cherry shrimp but whatever colour or patterns you like, I think blue or yellow or green would look harmonious in the setup but everyone has different taste so go with whatever you think is pretty.
ANGELFISH ARE CICHLIDS! *thinks of a saltwater emperor angel*
That last tank truly is mesmerising. Favourite seafood is definitely a seafood futamaki roll, I'm drooling just thinking about it lmao
The only thing worse than the huge red tail catfish is if they were to put labyrinth fish in there like Gouramis and lung fish that would have to swim up 8 ft to get a gulp of air. Those fish would eventually die from slowly being deprived of oxygen.
Crabs are the best especially flower crabs, they taste hella good and have amazing texture. Sharks are a close second, their meat tastes great, just that I feel bad whenever eating them.
Also, which do you think is cooler, ricefish or endlers
Endlers have that half tail, cool
@@yuppydoodlon Like a mini swordtail!
7:21 ❤❤❤❤OMGGGG YASSS the number of times I used to try correcting people when they said betta!!! Hahhahahhahaha
haha
That tall tank would be perfect for garden eels and seahorses
Sushi is definitely best seafood
2:07 - great first aquascape... except the fully-submerged Ribbon Plants, which aren't true aquatic plants and will eventually rot and foul the water if left submerged like that. Buried Rhizomes on java fern = rip... Seashells in freshwater aqwuarium = bad idea, unless water is extra soft and needed the extra minerals leeching into it (but there's better ways of adding minerals to soft water for aquariums - actual aquarium additive products exist for that).
Crab and Salmon are the best!
QOTW:
I don’t eat fish because I simply have to much empathy for them.
But seafood like Crustaceans and cephalopods count as one of my favorite dishes.
the poor crabs reading this comment xD
you the man, cool hair cut too yo
I love mussels and calamari!
Favorite seafood- Lobster. If it's cooked a certain way lobster is probably the only seafood I like [I usually hate seafood]. It's either that or those dried seaweed sheet thingies.
I had a petco employee tell me the betta's fins looked like that because it was exotic (crowntail) and he was hiding from my hand so that's why he wasn't swimming up. It was fin rot and swim bladder disease. 💀 Just nodded my head and bought him out of pity. He's doing a lot better now :)
I would love to have some tardigrades in my tank. So cool! My angels ate all my nematodes so something else besides snails would be welcome. QOTW. My favorite seafood is probably shrimp. I do like everything else but octopus as it is like eating an eraser. There are not as many fresh options in North Dakota but when I lived in coastal Virginia, sea food was everywhere.
fill that tank with a vertical scape (tons of anubias monstera), kuhli loaches, and 1000s galaxy rasboras!!
Tuna rolls (sushi) is my favorite seafood!
You can add discus to the list off fish that are cichlids without people realising it.
A thing that blew my mind was that there are 3 species off angelfish. I did know about scalare and altums but only recently discovered the existance off leopoldi.
Me personally I would add Long Fin Danios . They look so cool.
I’m allergic to seafood, but I love garlic buttered shrimps!
Octopus has to be the most GOATed seafood ever
Omg give me some yellowtail sushi and day of the week!
My new favourite day again!
I feel like a true patriot of FTR by sending FFT Chanel link to a Chanel who abuse fish
3:40 I can't tell which slider that is either- the head is too far retracted to see the red pattern. I would guess either RES or cumberland slider based on the head shape... There is a floating dock at the back of that tank, its hidden by the hard water buildup on the glass. The way it's positioned suggests the tank was intended to be kept full but the owner is lagging behind on maintenance. I'm sure a commenter behind me who deserves a bio degree in reptile studies will know based on the shape of the shell or the skin patterns so if that commenter is you, feel free to correct me :}
Halibut is most delicious but as it’s rare now I prefer Haddock.
Chris using basketball references really makes me hope he also likes basketball. Texas living Raptors fan here!
Angelfish are Cichlids?!?! My mind has been blown. [QOTW: My favorite seafood is flounder.]
Amazing video as always 😎
tyty
"Nitrites/ates! Why in the HELL are you spiking constantly?!"
Oh... Mr. betta dug a hole at the back of the hardscape to snuggle into... -.-
QOTW: scallops, but only when they don't taste of that bitter preservative. And I live in a desert. 😭
My cats love dried minnows, and it feels awkward to feed them those in front of my identically-sized medaka.
I have a half of a an 800 gallon water tank (yes the ones u use on houses) as a pond outside my house. I made a DIY filter out of a big plastic container and that works pretty well. Why am I saying this? BECASE IT WAS AT 5:45 IN THIS VIDEO THAT I REMEMBERED I PUT THE FILTER TO DRAIN THE TANK FOR A WATER CHANGE. Needless to say my tank was indeed drained, but a bit more than i wanted it to be. My fish almost died. Thankfully I promptly filled it back up and they are fine now. For those wondering, I have about 15 peacock cichlids in there. The tank is indeed about 400 gallons, but it's not that much space with the different cave systems I've built and they don't fight (thank the heavens for that).
QOTW: man… sushi is so good. I’ve never met a sushi I didn’t like. Octopus? Yep. Uni? Sure. Here in the states my fav is crab, but when I went to Japan… omg… mackeral. 🤩
Crab. And Snow crab > King crab. Less meat, sure, but that meat is sweeter and more tender texture. Cant go wrong with a nice smoked salmon filet with lemon dill sauce, always good. Some asparagus and rice on the side... Now I'm hungry 🤤
One day, one day I will get my fish tank reviewed. 😖
I don't eat seafood. No favorites.
Dying over the $300 on plants. I just spent $400 on fish stuff. Now i can't afford to drive to the doctor. Totally worth it. 😅
ANY SEAFOOD (except cephalopods)...
blue crabs are tasty, but it takes too long to pick them... six hours later: still starving...
"sea gummy bear spider" xD
I'd put a couple of shrimp in that tank. Maybe some snails.
Being from the very deep south, that would be crawfish, fried catfish, and grilled shrimp in that order!
For people who have tanks
1st it doesn't have to be ovestocked with monster fish
2nd please have some aquascape,live plants,SMALL FISH. If i had a big thank like that you bet it would be filled fith tettras,guppies.. What's the point of having it empty
Monday is the best day of the week!
Beautiful 40 gallon!
"My favorite suggestion for plants is 'get whatever you can keep alive'"
👆This
(Why I plan on sticking with anubias and maybe java fern XD)
The sleepy pea puffers is just so cute 💕
Funny Fish Guy back at it again 😳
QOTW: I think that I like all seafood, except salmon roe and raw squid. Favorites are crab, shrimp, lobster.
Also, I feel like a noob compared to these people that have beautiful tanks and it's their first tank. Like, bruh, I've been doing this for like 20 years and I suck at planted tanks... But I also have low tech setups, so no CO2, but good lights and super nutrient dense substrate. Still, it's kinda defeating lol
I love a good crab cake or some nicely seared scallops. And now I'm craving seafood. Thanks
"pickled" glass eels SLAP
My favourite seafood is probably tempura shrimp or tempura squid and my friends always point out I have shrimp... I don't eat tempura cherry shrimp...
idk why but i got a betta it was in a perfectly cycled 15 gallon it was eating as soon as i got him and was active but then he started hiding more and more stopped eating then died i dont know what i did wrong (all the water conditions were perfect)
At the start broo the glow tetras
Blue crab! Steamed, yum.
lowkey i thought you gonna said tetra is cichlid lmao
