@@garystein9536 no breeding activity yet that I can notice. Haven’t seen eggs on them but hopefully soon.

@@josepolanco1228 yes that’s my fahaka Puffer. My absolute favorite fish with an even bigger personality 😁👍

@@pattys_aquatics they are amazing

@@josepolanco1228 they have absolutely stunning colors . Dare I say jaw dropping 😁

@@josepolanco1228 hello Jose and thank you! I’m already subbed to your channel and like your channel 😁👍

@@aquariumdelirium it was a good time! It cool hearing the enthusiasm of a kid in this hobby having big goals. 😁👍

@@garageaquatics2023 thanks Ron, it was a cool stream with NC . As far as the swords I think growing them for sale in a dirted tank is doable since they won’t get large. You may pull up some soil into the water column removing them but it’s easier to get plants out when they are small. Dirted pots is another great option, that way you don’t need to deal with pulling plants.

@@garageaquatics2023 no problem Ron! That is a great idea for a video and will work in that. Everyone is still learning 😁👍

@@pattys_aquatics Always learning and always moving forward, Patty! Thanks!

@@paulhughes8907 thank you, you absolutely can add pond plants. Those floaters will help soak up nutrients. I would recommend stem plants as well, they will also help control the nutrient levels and safe guard from algae.

@@pattys_aquatics Thankyou, I appreciate the advice

@@marct138 yeah I can absolutely do that. Probably next month ( have a bunch of videos shot and scheduled already) but for you it’s going great, sparkles is being good with the plants and the plants are growing. I have had a lingering issue with cloudy water which is annoying but hopefully will subside soon.

@@omarfareed3777 your plants will tell you if they are liking it or not. You could increase the amount of time with the light to see if they grow faster but would need to monitor it so it doesn’t create algae but if it works for you that’s all that matters.

@@pattys_aquatics thankyou, now iam clear.

@@fishingcampborneo thank you very much 😁👍

@@therealsalmarcus that’s weird organic would have it in. I never used it but from doing some quick google research it seems like it wouldn’t harm anything. But like I said I don’t have experience with it. If you are part of the father fish discord I would ask in there and could guarantee someone with experience with it may have a more definitive answer than me .

@@pattys_aquatics Thank you, much appreciated

@@aquariumdelirium thanks Mal but you will always be my first 😂🤣 This week I have NC pleco caver. A kid with a passion for this hobby Then 10/20 Andrew from The Dirty Tank which should be fun 10/27 Mike from M&C Aquatics And 11/10 Steffan from Lush and Salty I put out a few inquiries to other “big” fishtubers but I love hearing everyone’s story .

@@TarasTankFriends thanks Tara, it was definitely an interesting 2 hours. It was hard to breakdown these videos into only 4 . Will have one out every 2 weeks. Have a great weekend too 😁👍

@@SarumanDeWhite absolutely 😁👍

@@djguppyfish thank you very much. It was a privilege to be able to talk to him and hear his thoughts. 🤣😂 you would think so if he didn’t explain it lol

@@michalfur6556 thank you 😁👍

@@pattys_aquatics No problem.Recently i used resurection jar to improve my microfauna , and make it more diversified.Its also fine way to keep tubifex worms , and biofilm organisms as part of food web in the aquarium.Great way to make water live , healthy, clear.

@@michalfur6556 absolutely, the food web plays many great roles within our ecosystem aquariums 😁👍

@@pattys_aquatics As long as the fish is small like xiphos , mollies, plattys, it does not goes with a bigger fishes

@@michalfur6556 I don’t feed bigger fish but I believe the benefits of a foodweb goes beyond feeding the fish. It feeds the entire ecosystem with microorganisms breaking down waste to work its way to the soil to feed the plants. Everything has a role no matter the size of the fish.

@@stubbsaquatics6080 thanks Chris, he definitely makes you think about how we view our aquariums.

@@stubbsaquatics6080 I use flake food as well. I get his point and agree fresh food like worms or shrimp would be the best food to give but it’s not practical for everyone. I like flake food for my tanks that have different size fish because everyone can eat it.

@@moutaintopfish1597 it definitely is crazy to think going backwards in time with technology is actually the best way (in my opinion) to keep a tank.

@@brantonlightcap I mean that is an interesting subject . Do I think they age … absolutely… I mean fish grow and get bigger with age but I could understand where his thought process is. I have no scientific facts to back this up but would imagine those other factors definitely play roles in fish dying before old age doing them in. But I think a fish would die of old age eventually without being introduced into those other factors.

@@pattys_aquatics ya was kind of off topic but I thought it was very intriguing

@@brantonlightcap yeah absolutely, it’s one of those what came first the chicken or the egg. Makes you think

⁠@@brantonlightcapi think he meant that “in the wild” fish do not live long enough to get old, especially the little ones. They are lunch. Or seasonal changes kill them, not enough food, deteriorating water conditions, water levels dropping etc… that is my guess. I doubt little fish like tetra size live longer than a year.

@@roxiereed4061 I’m sorry I never seen the question. RUclips sometimes doesn’t notify me. What was it? That’s awesome of you to help out. That looked like it devastated so many . 😁👍

@pattys_aquatics no you're good i got back to you on it. yea Ashville got it worse than us & we get all 3 rivers from them 😳😳 my heart & prayers goes out to them 🙏🙏🙏

@@mortysssssa time really, I notice more of my newer tanks gas off occasionally where my older ones do not. It’s nothing bad it is actually telling you the soil is working. As far as odor I myself never had that issue. Hope that helped

@@LushSaltyAquariums that can be fortunately or unfortunately, I obsess and spend so much time doing it my wife gets annoyed 😁😂

@@pattys_aquatics Wives will do that from time to time :)

@@Chrisb2099 yeah he is finicky, smaller fish he seems to not care about but as they got bigger like swordtails he would pick off .

@@pattys_aquatics no i get it. I was just making a joke about the celebrity.

@@Chrisb2099 😂🤣Aaaaaaah yeah I probably should change his name 😁

@@audrameyer9558 thank you, I really couldn’t in good conscience potentially spread these to other hobbyists. So if that means I add meds I add meds. 😁👍

@@home-818 no problem! I honestly have seen no deaths in any of my pest snails! The only one the Malaysian trumpet snails I don’t notice as many on the substrate but it’s hard to say since they live in it. But yeah all my pest snails were completely fine

@@TarasTankFriends thanks Tara, yeah it worked really well and had no issues with my fish, plants , shrimp or even my pest snails😁.

@@pattys_aquatics so I hope you don't ever have to deal with planaria again, but if you do, it might be really interesting to see how you feel like No Planaria compares. I've only used it for Hydra. Doesn't kill "pest snails", either, and works great on Hydra.

@@stubbsaquatics6080 thanks Chris, yeah I just couldn’t in good conscience sell plants to people knowing they could have planaria on them. 😁👍

@@pattys_aquatics you are a good guy

@@janemarriott3389 your very welcome Jane, I have learned so much from all of you as well. One of the many things I love about doing this RUclips thing😁👍

@@seannunes2041 thank you, I’m hoping I won’t need it again except for pretreatment to kill any newly hatched planaria😁👍

@@razinfishes1918 thanks Scott I appreciate it. Research is one of the best weapons we can have in this hobby 😁👍

@@AngelaABrown-cd8kd your very welcome, oh I love snails especially pest snails 😁

@AngelaABrown-cd8kd I did too and have an outrageous pest snail situation in my tank. I'm waiting for some assassin snails to get here tomorrow 😬

@@santoshbayalkoti7237 you can absolutely do a dirted tank with goldfish the only major thing to consider is the type of plants to use that they won’t eat. I personally would do swords or crypts and try to establish stem plants like Ludwiga for them to get a good root system before introducing the goldfish. Undergravel filters I think would not work. With dirt being the bottom layer it would push that soil up into the water column. You need to leg cap to seal it in the substrate.

@@pattys_aquatics thank u so much

@@thesolaraquarium thank you it was an honor having Father Fish on to be able to ask him about his methods and views . I did make a series of 4 videos from clips of the stream to start coming out this Friday and one of them will be about the foodweb and that quote will be the centerpiece. 😁👍

@@Julles-u4k what type of snails do you have? I filmed this video about a month ago and have successfully treated with Panacur. ( that video will be out tomorrow) sneak peek, none of my pest snails were harmed in the killing of the planaria. I have read nerite and mystery snails are susceptible to it though.

@@razinfishes1918 thanks Scott, I appreciate that. 😁👍

Sending love and good vibes to your family and wife. Im fight BC for second time and understand/empathize with her. I'm here if she needs an understanding ear and sending yall all the good thoughts and prayers!

@@evadethefae it’s ok replay crew is just as good . Thank you for your support and we will be sending positive thoughts and prayers your way as well. This isn’t an easy disease and to have to deal with it twice is even harder. 🙏

@@bigfishlad4847 thanks Paul, these things are straight out of a sci-fi /horror movie but they are completely interesting as well but definitely don’t want them. 😁👍

@@Lonewolfblue66 thank you, wow that definitely is a different substrate set up. That is one thing I love about this channel is hearing from hobbyists like yourself doing things you wouldn’t think of and succeeding at it. Very cool 😁👍

@@pattys_aquatics I also streamed the setup... ruclips.net/user/livee1rhiSrCpYU

@@pattys_aquatics I did a short video of the tank today. ruclips.net/video/lxKGlyzYvbg/видео.html

Thanks for that information! I used febendazole a couple weeks ago ( I filmed this about a month ago) and yeah my “pest” snails have not been affected. It’s good to know though in case I decide to get something other than pest snails not to put them in those tanks. 😁👍

@@magicman78g98 very true and great advice 😁👍

@@aquariumdelirium Thanks Mal, I get the feeling of precaution. I even mentioned that to Father Fish in my livestream. There are so many benefits from the foodweb in my opinion. Planaria has its place in an ecosystems but in my aquarium they are not wanted. For me now is finding a way to add the diversity of organisms from a natural body of water without adding planaria 😁👍

No Planaria is good stuff worked very well with no issue to my fish. It was much safer than Fenbendazole.

@@LushSaltyAquariums yeah I have heard a lot of good things about no Planaria since I released this video. I went with Panacur and it has worked very well ( video for that out Tuesday) but if I would be in need in the future I would try No Planaria

@@seannunes2041 I went back and forth between the two when I was doing research. Went with Panacur but if I ever was in need again I definitely would try No Planaria

@LushSaltyAquariums Looking forward to the video, Patty! Thank you for what you do.

@@Diet_Black that definitely is a great deterrent 😁👍

@@Manormouse-04 I agree with you completely. I definitely have tried to do everything as natural as possible and I love everything about it but like you said sometimes you have to take alternative measures because we don’t have the ecosystem of a natural body of water, there is nothing to kill and control the planaria and sometimes must take balance into our own hands unfortunately
