the new fish we just got back with from our trip to North Florida Aqua to do our big fish trade! northfloridaaqua.com/
They get stressed
@spinks11BMW pretty sure all fish do but he's in a big tank and there's no bully's or aggro fish in the tank so yup... I dunno.
Rip frank
The saltwater tank looks so much better. Great job!
@drinkwater580 thanks dude. Working on it. Just finished the test results and the perimeters seem perfectly where they need to be so I'm gonna try to dose with some of that coral fuel.
Well it’s not the end of the world. Most reefers will tell you the tanks usually get it eventually. I have a three gallon tank and boy oh boy have I been fighting the good fight with the cyano. I usually just get my turkey baster out,put a new sponge in my hob to catch it,and get to work. Blow that crap off your xenia and rocks and everything. Blow-it off,suck it up. I have tweezers and I even roll it off the sand bead. Do a water change if it is time. It may not cure it but it will make everything look better and feel better. Others might chime in on reasons why.
Hello I'm Jorge. I really like your tanks. Just subbed.
@mexicalifishkeeper thanks Jorge! Looking forward to checking out ur content.
Nice
@@markfranklin8831 thanks Mark!
Neat looking tank
Thanks man. Need to get it back to it's pre Dino cyano glory days. Working on it.
I would aim for 0.06 to 0.15 phosphate and 10-20 nitrates
@@douglasachaiba7885 got it. Thx man.
You have dinoflagellates. Brown and snotty with bubbles. Take a sample and put it under a microscope to confirm.
Hello from my fish room channel in Chicago, where I am a subscriber. Let me ask does the actual sweet potato degrade into root stock or what happens to it???
Long-term, I'm not sure. I had the same thought. So far, it doesn't seem to have rotted or lost any of its integrity and looks totally fine. I guess in time we'll find out.
Looks great dude! I like those eels! Bad ass!
@drinkwater580 thanks man. I can't wait for them to be big enough to move over to the 560. Eels have been hands down some of the favorite fish we've kept.
I love the Severums
@@Smallfish16 thanks man. We can't wait for em to get big.
Hey friend. The lights are the problem with your cyano bacteria (blue green algae) and it’s making your arowana nervous. Try dimming the light and cutting the food by a third for about two weeks and you’ll see the blue green algae begin to die. The arowana would probably be more comfortable with dimmer lights and turn down the bubbles a little bit at least until he gets about 12 inches. I love your selection of fish.
Hey Tabaraka! Thanks for the input. Why do you think the same light doesn't do this in the 75? I'll read the manual today to see if I can adjust the white light brightness. I know it has different options, but the ones I recall are totally different colors like red, blue, etc. (Who would want a red light in their tank?, lol) I'm also gonna install an air control valve today and I'll turn the bubbles down. I've always been a huge fan for surface agitation. Hopefully that helps, and I also hope when he's bigger he'll be okay with the lights and bubbles in the big tank! I mean there's so much more room in that tank he doesn't have to be near bubbles if he chooses.
@@Jonandshelbysfishroom The small ones are usually sensitive to lighting and flow
@tabarakaquatics8067 that makes sense so he should be fine once he is big enough to move to the big tank. I'm gonna read the manual today to see if I can dim the white light and install a air flow valve on the bubbles. If the white light isn't dimmable I may have to consider the blue light you think? I can't fathom it's not dimmable tho...
@@Jonandshelbysfishroom or cut out a matt or cardboard to partially shade the back part of the top.
@tabarakaquatics8067 that's a good idea! So I reduced the brightness and turned the bubbles down yesterday. Aro is already 100% active and swimming at top. You nailed it. So I read in the manual the brightness setting may not stay when you have it on a programmed mode but only when you manually trigger it. How's that make any sense for functionality? Lol. Anyhow, testing it today when it comes on. If it comes on full blast I'll make a cut out for the back like you suggested. I remember seeing ppl online a while back use a foil trick. Wrap the light and poke holes.
That's growing on the hermit crabs shell?
@@robertmayes9220 ya. There's actually two of them in there. They camped out in the pulsing xenia for a few days and came out with xenia on their shell, lol.
Walking camouflage. Haha
@@drinkwater580 lol, right!?
Just a few questions what filtration are you running on your big tank and what type of sand thanks
@jasonhunt5899 hi Jason. That's pool filter sand in the big tank. And I'm running 4 fx6 on it. I'm wanting to juice up the media on them in the future. Right now it's just the stock media that comes with them.
Beautiful tanks man 👍🏾👍🏾
@clarence0075 thanks!
Lovely
@elvinsworld11 thanks for the kind words and watching!
first time coming across your channel, love the tanks!! the flower horn is a boy btw, Also what state are you guys in? I also have about 12-14 tanks set up haha
@NicoMeasure thanks man!! That's good to know about the fh. How can you tell? That means the fenestratus we rehomed was a female! We r on florida. Do you have your tanks on RUclips? I'd love to check em out.
Nice tanks. Love the huge tank!!
@@Mr.JoshuaFish thanks man!
Hi what state are you located in since you’re trying to rehome?
@tracycarter1185 We are in central fl. Were actually driving up to north fl Monday to meet with northfloridaaqua for a swap. We're getting 3 kelberi p bass an enderheri and lapradei bichir! Excited to get them.
@@Jonandshelbysfishroom congrats that’s awesome!!!
@tracycarter1185 thanks! Not looking forward to moving all these big boys tho. Particularly Bissell the tsn achara!
Good looking stock😍
@tabarakaquatics8067 thanks. U have some awesome looking setups too. Look forward to checking more out. (My gar is obsessed with fd krill too!)
Hello new sub here. Cool tanks . Very nice setups. Thanks for sharing
@markfranklin8831 thanks for the sub and compliment we work hard on them!
What size is your big tank?
@@MrReMiXKiNG1 that one's 560 gallons
At first i thought the big tank was overstocked cus they're swimming all into each other, but then i saw all the space in the back. They must have just wanted you to feed them lol
@Daero1 😅 haha ya. They're so personable in that tank everyone that comes over comments on it. They literally just follow u around the tank.
i absolutly love how the planted tank looks like the bottom of a lake Soooo cool😍
Thanks man. Thats that fluval stratum stuff. Ime it's great for plants.
Looks great dude! Keep up the great work.
Thanks man! Hoping to get those other two tanks up soon on the 75 wall!!
@@Jonandshelbysfishroom I always enjoy the videos dude. How do you power all those tanks? I have four tanks in my living room, I have drop cords running everything.
@drinkwater580 thanks. Just large surge protector power bars from home depot.
nice fish room..keep going brotha
Thanks!
The room looks great dude!!
Thanks man!
that plant you wondered about in the angelfish tank is a Crypt!
Cool thx for the info! Google says root tabs r pretty good for them so I'll stick some in there.
Looks great as always. Keep up the great work.
Thanks man!
What kinda filters do you run your saltwater tanks? Would a HOB work?
I'm running seachem tidal HOBs on them both. They work fine. The surface skimmer gets a bit clogged with that hard calcium stuff (whatever it's called) in sw and I have to clean it pretty good sometimes but besides that they work great. With the established sw tank I nuke the whole filter media with tap water when I clean it cause I was told of u have enough cycled lr that's enough to maintain ur cycle and it seems to hols true cause I've been doing it like that over a year with no issues.
Oh and barbs are a-holes.. fin nippers in my experience with them.
Ya, some. I don't think that can be universally said about all barbs but ya. Ime a decent size shoal keeps the nipping or aggression within the school.
Dude the coral tank looks a ton better!!!
Thanks, dude!! Ya, that flow makes a huge difference, i guess. Also I feel like that last starfish we fed Hannibal was too big to where maybe there were parts of him that maybe polluted the water or got stuck in powerhead or filter.
Nice, I hope everything is alive and well. I can't wait for the next video!
Thanks man. I'm pretty sure it's all okay from what I can see. It's hard to tell with cuc some of these snails n such r so tiny but i can see the bigger ones and emerald crab n stuff cruising around.
Looks great as always. I've always wanted salt water tanks. So far it's still fresh water for me. Here in Illinois we dont have a lot of fresh water fish shops. Mostly PetSmart's and such.
Thanks man! If you ever have the chance I would definitely suggest you try a sw! It's not nearly as difficult as it was portrayed to me when I was solely a fw guy. We have some okay lfs so mostly we purchase the majority of our stock from online vendors.
Looks great as always dude.
Thanks man! I appreciate you watching and the compliments. We're trying hard!
Dude, how long does a water change take for that bad boy?
The 240 takes roughly under an hour with 2 pythons. Not too bad.
That looks great
Can’t wait to see the new 75 with the rock. Looks cool 🇺🇸
Hey what do you use in the fx6s ? I thought there would be a massive sump on the 560 , real nice water on all of them tho
Love ur setup! Look forward to networking with a fellow hobbyist and checking out more of your channel. We're in central Florida on the east coast.
Hey brother, cheers from my fish room channel in chilly Chicago! I just found your channel and am delighted to support it :) It looks like you're someplace relatively warm -LA? Anyway, look forward to seeing you at mine and watching you grow yours!
Looks great dude!!
Thanks man. Were getting there.
Looks like the 240 would make a great turtle tank 😎
You and your turtles! Well, maybe if the goldfish don't work out I can try some sort of musk turtle. Or maybe I can even try one with the goldfish when they get large!
I really hate this type of video.. make me so jealous. I'm having MTS.. 😅 btw love all your tanks😂
😂 sorry! Gotta love the mts. Thanks for the kind words. We're really excited to see how the fish room develops this year, and I'm really excited to be video journaling it.
Nice tanks mate, love the stary night cichlid can't wait u til mine is that size he's currently about and inch haha.
Thanks. Ya, Shelby is really excited to see him get big. Probably her favorite in that tank.
Nice tanks
Thanks! 😊
Beautiful aquariums. Did you have to reinforce the sub floor ?
Thanks. No, the subfloor is a concrete slab and I have no doubt the weight from that tank sinks right threw that lil tongue n groove laminate floor. I've actually seen ppl with 125g on same style floor, and when they removes it the floor bounced right back to its original state.
Awesome
Thanks man.
