      If you didn't know about bladderwort, you may not know about SunDew as a land carnivorous plant.
      In my opinion, SunDew is the king of carnivorous land plants. Living flypaper that readily reproduces. There are many colors and growth types, so you are likely to find one you admire most. Mine is Drosera Spatulata.

    you are right, white clouds are egg scatterers, tell him to get a tray of marbles in that outdoor tub asap and toss the mop. i raised 300-400 of them in an IBC tub this year with a bare bottom, feeding off infusoria from decaying leaves. nature is great!

      My white clouds outside will occasionally have a few fry growing up with them in heavily planted tanks, however put 3 in a small tank with some marbles for a few days then take them out and bam 100's of fry. I'm with you 100% on the old fashioned marble technique

    I love his fish keeping. Fish tanks are healthy and he uses natural balancing of tanks to upkeep instead of fighting nature to keep it looking scaped. I'd love to see more fish tanks like this simply because a pristine looking tank does not mean it's a healthy one! He is keeping very happy fish and I'd love to him and his collection from time to time

    White Clouds were the first egg layer I ever bred - about 60 years ago, long before the long fin variety was developed. I had them in a 4-5 gal bucket in my bedroom (I was in high school) with a small box filter or maybe just an air stone, unheated. The bucket had plenty of plants, water sprite and maybe something else. No heater with my bedroom in the winter around 65 degrees F. At that time what I was reading was they did best at 60-70 F and never ate their eggs or young. I kept them for 2-3 years before moving on. 48 years ago I moved into a location with hard water and stopped trying to keep aquariums. That was after breeding Angel Fish for about 15 years.
    Very interesting info on the plants. I never had much success with plants and am just now learning why.

    I couldn't get my White Clouds to breed so I relegated the tank to an inner wall facing east that received sunrise only and pretty much forgot about. The water had dropped down to 20cm depth when I remembered the 7 Clouds. I checked to see if they were still alive and they were but I also had about 500 fry also. When I analyzed the tank as to why they did so well it reminded me of a small forested freshwater stream. Low dappled light, shallow water, crazy

    What a great and informative tour! I know it's been 5 months since you've made this video, Matt, but my Vietnamese Cardinal Minnows--which I believe are the same to breed as White Cloud Mountain Minnows--need heavy floating plant cover for the babies to survive, in my experience. I know you're looking for eggs, but I wonder if they're even very visible? They're the smallest fry I've seen! They hang out at the top of the tank or tub for a good many days, sticking themselves to the side or anchoring themselves in the roots of the floaters. I keep an opening in the plants with a floating ring, and when I see the fry beginning to gather in the clearing I scoop them out and put them in their own grow out tank or tub.
