- This is a 75 gallon Brook Trout Tank that I installed for a local rustic furniture store. I took the video just after doing a water change, so the water is a bit hazy from the particulates I kicked up during that.
It has Aqueon Modular LED light fixture with an extra "Max Blue" Bulb, an Eheim Pro 3 2075 Canister Filter, and a Kryos 1/4 hp chiller to keep things cold enough for the Brook Trout.

Updated Model : Pro4+ 600

Their colors are wonderful!
Jonathan Vander Wiel Thanks! They really started showing better colors with the color enhancing food I switched to. Thanks for watching!
Time for a bigger tank or eat them.
Danny you are 100% right
A pond is better
Cry babies
Matt Weber stfu. You prob don’t even have a fish.
I had an aquarium as a child, but I never kept a member of a delicious species. I’d be looking at my pets imaging them fried with a lemon wedge and some tartar sauce 😂😂😂!
Aren't trout supposed to be in a 1000+ gallon aquarium? Because those poor brookies must be smacking their heads around with the slightest scare. Release those fish!
250 at LEAST and that can only hold about two adults (I don’t recommend that) or four juveniles and then after a few months you would need at least a 500. You need crazy water agitation and a very powerful canister filter. They are cold water fish so I recommend keeping them within the mid to high 60s depending if you want to try to make them spawn (this is almost unheard of in captivity in home aquariums) and they are very hard to feed so you will need to ween them on the proper pellet food unless you got the trout from a hatchery. Give them plenty of space to swim and a few places for cover and you will have some happy trout. I have kept Brooke and rainbow trout before in a 750 (not at the same time) and the maintenance was non stop but it all pays off.
Shut up libtard
@@THEAMERICAN-ob2wt Shhhhh my little one, be still and you too can feel the enlightened ways of proper fish keeping. Yes! You too can shake off the chains of a benighted prejudice and glib parroting of popular phrases. You too, need not be a slave to the fashion!
@@PJSnodgrass that was one of the most cringe comments I have ever read. The English language is the most popular language on the earth. Increase the chances of familiar phrases that doesn’t mean it is parroting haha moron. I can say the same in your mannerism...learn my friend learn...
What is this goofy ahh reply section
Looks delicious lol
My well was at the top of a hill. I built a fifteen-thousand-gallon pond out of rocks and cement. Every day I would put water in this pond, and it would overflow and go into my small lake. The overflow kept the pond cool and aeriated. I had maybe 35 rainbow trout. The trout really grew fast. They got up to 16 inches very rapidly. Problem was algae. The algae grew fast and thick. I tried everything to slow it down. Every other day I would pull it out by the hands full. Then I did a no no. I used a little copper sulfate, that was the end of my trout. If I had to do it again, I would have two ponds, when one pond got dirty, I would transfer the fish to the second pond and clean the first one. Make a passageway from one pond to the other.
great video, some day I want to have a tank with trout instead of cichlids. Brookies I'd assume would be the best trout to keep since they tend to stay the smallest. Do you think a 150-200 gallon tank would be large enough to hold them through their life?
ironically the brookies are the hardest to keep despite them being the smallest. they require much colder water, and much better water quality. rainbows tend to be much more tolerant. anything bigger than a 125 would probably be fine for keeping as many as a half dozen. Depending on filtration and maintenance schedule of course
Those are some good looking fish and I can see the small one has a bit of a gut on it
What a sad life for a trout to live
Super, amazing colours and they are healthy, I see in wild brook trout need colder water then rainbow or brown trout,. can you tell me what temperaure of water is still good for brook trouts and is your electric bill high because of chiller? Thank You Mate for answear and All the Best !
Great song
Are they thriving or surviving?
Pretty cool. I'm interested in doing something liker his. I feel as if they need a little more water circulation and surface agitation. At least you have a power head and the flow from the filter keeping the water moving. Thumbs up!
+Where's Izzy Thanks for watching! These guys have been in this setup for about a year now. They love playing in the current from the Powerhead, and the spray bar from the filter agitates the surface. Haven't had any issues.
Thats good to hear, love the set up it's a motivator!
Please do another video on them! I love these
I'll make it a point to take some new footage the next time I'm there! Thanks for watching!
2 makes 1 female. They don't fight in the fall ? Or do you keep the water temp so they never go into spawn?
ah thats what i was missing the chiller.. i think the chiller enables the water to hold more oxygen.
Hi is something like this really possible to do? Don’t the trout grow too big? How much would a set up like this cost? Can you take a trout from the wild and keep it here or should you just buy one?
brook trout are the smallest species of trout and brook trout are not even trout. they are apart of the Chinnock family
How many years have you had these Brook Trout and also, how do you setup the tank with flowing water?
You can use pumps who are common in reef tanks
I live in montana and george town lake has these fish. I thought about makeing a tank like yours. I did a tropical tank before but to tell you the truth that is boring been there do that.
Those colors are amazing!
Michael Salazar they've gotten even better since I made this video! Thanks for watching!
The Fish Guy do you think you could do a feeding video?
I will definitely keep it in mind the next time I head over to service the tank!
thats very depressing
can I ask what food you feed them?
this is badass
Was the Brook Trout wild caught or Farmed?
Do you have current ?
Brooks can get 20"+ and will need 300+ gallons by then
ehhhhhh

Depends on strains. Here in the drift less, you can only find average 6-8 inch in the wild streams and trophies are like 10 inches +. Driftless strain will most likely only be 6 inch at most in captive. They not same as their ocean or big lake cousins.
I would like to know more about the colors on the fish,and how to enhance those colors as well. Where can I buy those fish?
Thank you
U can catch them
Feed them stuff with krill in it to bring out the reds
how about 2000 liters
yep
We use gallons.
If you dont mind me asking, what foods do you feed them for color enhancing?
Cichlid dry pellet food and earthworms.
im literally setting this exact tank up right now! did you catch wild specimens or hatchery fish?
Jasper Trivette I deal with a trout farm that's local to me. Colors get better with a quality "color enhancing" cichlid pellet instead of the standard "trout chow"
The Fish Guy im so in love. i swear ive watched this video 10 times in the past few months lol. ive always had the notion to keep a few but you dont see much about it. not to mention i have the same 75 g. How do you feel wild specimens would fare vs farmed?
Well. I believe their are certain legal issues revolving around catching and keeping native species, at least here in NH. Why we are allowed to catch and eat them...but not keep them in an aquarium is beyond me.... So take care if collecting wild specimens.
So you can feed trout cichlid food?
tim pike correct. I found that after switching them to hikari cichlid gold that their colors really started coming out.
What do you feed them
This shit is nice you know wat I’m sayin
Do you think one (stocking size) trout would fit in a 20 gallon?
For just temporary?
@@rileylynne6055 no forever
@@davidstock5279 no that definitely wouldn't work. Trout get pretty big in my opinion adult brook trout need at least a 200 gallon aquarium.
@@rileylynne6055 it would only be a small stocked trout...
@@davidstock5279 itll outgrow that tank in no time
If I have only females, there will still be aggression ?
What type of plants are in the tank?
Fake plants
what is the name of the species of this trout?
Brook Trout, which is actually in the char family, not a trout.
What temperature is your tank at?
Danny's Fish I use a chiller to keep the tank at 60 degrees.
My babyish rainbow trout really are flying in the water and out also. I have them in an acrylic tank and foam insulation on top as well as the top partially acrylic an they smack around...almost as much sound as if I knock on a tank with a good force knock. .....I’m a first timer so any reassuring I can get would be nice.
Before I had the foam on top the water level was at least 1 1/2 inches from the opening...but I found 2 got out and these babies aren’t much over 3 inches long.... maybe not even 2.5. ....hopping to hear some reassuring comments...
Not enough information
Wlll they breed????
Rather eat myself lol.i have 3 adult red bellie piranhas;and a baby gulper catfish he's only small 4 days ago I got him looks good
Wild caught ?
No, i acquire them from a local hatchery. with a little time and some color enhancing food they really start to show some awesome colors!
The Fish Guy how do you transfer a lake fish into a tank without it being in shock? I’m curious and I want to have a crappie tank
Life sentence in a tiny jail cell. Sad
Shut
Up
stuff morestuff Why are you booing him? He is right.
Beats death sentence
you know people eat these too! The things people will do to live huh. Is it better to be on a plate or in a tank?
Take it down please
Nah jk it’s trash bro
