    Maybe you can get ur hand on some white mollies to add to the mix. They would stand out quite a bit

    It's interesting to see a familiar fish literally from a new perspective when you add them to a pond. I didn't think mollies could look so elegant but I agree, they look like tiny goldfish when viewed from above. 😊

      @josephlabranch6595 6 лет назад

      guinea pigs and kitties should try it out at least, I started because my mom had had a fish way back, a black moor if I remember the story right, when her and younger sister moved into their first apartment, later when I was 7 or 8 she set up a small aquarium in me and my sister's room, later on at when I was about 12 she set up a 29 gallon in the living room. All this and those aquariums didn't stay set up after moves etc., I did use that 29 gallon though later on, in high school. I have done south and central American cichlids, every catfish I could find, a few African cichlids, some salt, a little reef, but a hell of a lot of goldfish (like I have right now) over the years, by the way I'm now 46, and have been keeping my own fish since I was around 11, my mom never really had more than the aquariums I talked about above, but she really did like the aquariums I had way back in high school.

    • @josephlabranch6595
      @josephlabranch6595 6 лет назад

      At least I think she did, maybe she really didn't like all the water change buckets and filter sound, frozen and live food in the refrigerator, well at least she never complained about it anyway.

      @AdvantageousAngie 6 лет назад +2

      I don't own any currently either. But I always joke to my husband that's what I will do after I retire to keep me busy. 😂 I just don't have time for it with 2 going on 3 little ones to chase around all day.

    • @annamooney0530
      @annamooney0530 6 лет назад

      Joseph LaBranch no don't get me wrong I would love to own fish but I just don't have the time or money for it right now. I did have aquariums in the past with neon tetras and Angel fish and barbs.

    I love mollies. I am raising about 30 fry right now of white mollies an they have such a personality. Whenever I sit down at my desk, they all come up to me to say hi. I always recommend mollies to beginners who want goldfish, because most customers just want a few gallons, and not the larger tanks it takes to hold multiple goldfish.

    I think you should produce a coloring book on Gold Fish. With the fishes that you like in Differant plants , rocks, wood and other decorations as well. with discriptions . So sorry for the missed spellings. I love to color and I am not the only one who would buy your coloring books. Much Love ,Terri Simmers

    I love Dalmation mollies, they were the first fish i ever kept. So neat and they have very interesting personalities and behaviors. I wouldn't be surprised if they turn a lot darker while in the pond, they tend to acclimate their colors to their environment. I had that with mine, bought them almost all white and they ended up completely black because of my black substrate. So interesting! Good choices :)

    I've always wanted a patio planter pond, but I live in Ohio. It would be kind of hard to work around the weather.....I love how you put yours together. It looks wonderful. I can't believe in just a few weeks, that the plants have grown so much. Also I've never been a big fish person, but those mollies are so cute. I could see myself enjoying them, talking to them......Any pets I get becomes my babies.....You done wonders with your yard pond too......I love it.

    Omg same Jennie! I got 1 ballon and now I have 10! One of my females had 58 fry then another had 13 the day after. A week after that, my guppy gave birth! I’m over run by fry atm. My favorite out of mine is my sweet Gertrude. She the smallest must most human interactive and waits for me to come home just to beg for food. I love the balloon with the black spots!

  • @Jack_of_Spades_
    @Jack_of_Spades_ 2 месяца назад

    Great job! Looks beautiful. Here's a nice little tip; you can place a plastic ring that floats on the surface of the water during feedings. Use it to drop the fish food in so that the food doesn't go all over the place. The fish will come to the ring to feed. I'm currently creating an indoor pond myself. Using a very large and beautiful Chinese porcelain potter. Was wondering, how do you heat your indoor pond? Any advice will be appreciated.

      Hey Anthony I have Mollies and guppies as well as various other fish in my community tank although I don't breed them specifically they have spawned in the tank multiple times :) Fallon will have more advice than me but because I don't breed specifically and i let nature take course within the tank (if they get eaten they get eaten as I don't want to be over run with mollies) I have noticed the more plants and places to hide the more babies survive they are very clever in that sense

    If you spin your plant pots a quarter way round once a week they'll chase the sun and eventually straighten back up. You might have to leave them a bit longer than a week for a start since it'll take time to get them where you want them. I've been doing this for years with all my plants, just make sure you spin the same direction every week, it stops the leaves really fully facing the window so you can enjoy them more :) don't be tempted to turn them the whole half way round or they'll wonder where the sun has gone! haha

    I ha balloon mollies for 2 years in a planted tank, had soooooooo many babies to start but eventually you get inbreeding and deformities, and with each litter the female tends to become weaker and my males would pick favourites and stress them to death. There wound up being a constant string of deaths despite perfect water parameters. I hope you have a better experience with them than I did! I also like that they were similar to goldfish. They had great personality, the establish pecking orders and social hierarchy that I found so entertaining haha
