Another great informative video 👍
I do like a clean fish room
Priceless tips from a seasoned fishkeeper. This should hopefully help fishkeepers even if your not just breeding plecos, simple and can easily be modified to suit your needs. I have the same issue with my python, love the flexibility but slow to fill/drain. Hopefully they make a 3/4" to 1" ID hose. I like the option of being able to throttle the water down specially when filling smaller tanks, draining is blank to the walls for me. Thanks for the update,I know this is a late comment but fish happens.
Thank You for the great video and idea's. I learned some new tricks and I appreciate you sharing.
Very much enjoyed this video. I do water changes similar but i need to go to a larger hose for waste water. My return only does 600 gph. Need to work on that i see. Thank you again.
Great stuff as always -- thanks and hello from southwest MN. :)
SKOL
Good info, thank you! Fwiw, I heard smaller bubbles move more water
😃👍
Great video Tom!
Great update Thank you!
Love your tanks!
Thanks Chris.
Minus the R/O system your manual water change is just like mine I went from 1/2" to 3/4" and it cut like 15 minutes off my time. Now my only problem is my pump is too fast for my faucet....
Good video. Thank you for all the details you share with us!
Thanks. My pleasure.
My black cory has been breeding like crazy, got 4 spawns in 4 weeks. Currently have 60-70 fries atm
VERY-GOOD EXPLANATION VIDEO :)
THANK YOU FOR SHARING :)
THANK YOU FROM ISRAEL :)
Great video very informative 👍
You deffinately have given me some great info on making my waterchanging easier! I’ve been hauling buckets to my utility sink in my fishroom, the bright spot is, I have a hose to fill them back up. Eventually I think I will need an ro filter for my apistogrammas and soon I may try wild type mouthbrooding bettas. Thanks tom for all that you do sir💯⭐️
Thanks. After I made this video I realized not everyone has access to the floor drain like I do. Wish I would have mentioned that.
Very nice!!
Awesome update! Thanks 🙏🏼
Thanks Cod Father
you have amazing fish and your videos are so good thank you
Thank you Barbara.
Set up is so nice.
Very impressive. Thank you for showing the tanks as well as the water change system and the tutorial 👍
You're welcome. Thanks for watching.
I watch till the end always , I tend to comment a few times per vid , if it becomes annoying let me know, thanks.
Nice update.. really love ur channel ❤️
Thanks for watching.
Pretty impressive setups. Quite official and elegant!
Thank you. I do try and keep the fish room clean for good presentation. But even if I wasn't making videos, I'd still keep the tanks this way.
I love the 60 breeder. I wish they had them out a few years ago when I got my 55. Much prefer the shorter height of the 60.
Love the new tanks in the fish room, definitely stealing your water change siphon idea!
It works well. **Floor drain required**
G'day Tom Jarrod from down under Australia.
Just wanted to say love watching your vlogs. Keep up the breeding and as many videos as you can put out there for all us followers.
recommend to get started?
Thanks Jarrod. Not sure I caught your question. But I appreciate the comments.
Those 60 breeders are some killer tanks,great job on the top ones. I thought you were going to put the Leopard Frogs in one of them 60's, but you do need the space for babies makes more sense. ✌🌿
I had to put the L260's somewhere since I needed their tank for my C. Schultzi 'Black'. I wasn't planning to use two of the new 60B's for grow out tanks, but thats what it's come to for now. Eventually the middle 60B will be a pleco tank. I just ordered the plecos that will eventually occupy that tank (I think). Stay tuned.
Great tips and solid advice Tom, still the best aquarist channel on RUclips 👌
I appreciate your comment, but there are some incredible hobbyists, channels, and creators on RUclips.
I would love to see your take on a list from hardest to easiest to spawn Corydoras in your opinion. Also how do you feed shy Corydoras?
Many of the lineage 9 corydoras can be rather easy to breed. Some of the longer nosed corydoras in lineage 1 and 8, can be rather challenging. With that said, there is one lineage 7 corydoras in particular that gives even the most experienced Corydoras breeder a hard time, and that is the Corydoras Eques.
In regards to feeding shy corydoras, like my entire tank of CW009 Green Lasers or my Corydoras Suessi, I just feed them at night when the lights get turn off. My Seussie will come out and feed during the day, but any movement will send the scurrying for cover. I rarely see my adult green lasers except when they spawn. If they are out, I know a party is about to start.
@@TMAquatics this is awesome information. That’s for the response. I hope you get some success with C. Eques.
The 60 gallon breeders are SWEET!!! I really like the looks of the top tank with all those pleco caves. I know you've answered this question before but what is that material you're using for the tank tops? Thanks!
Clear 6mm Twinwall polycarbonate. It's used for greenhouses. I cut to size with a table saw. 4' x 8' sheets can be purchased at Menards for around $75.
Excellent videos. What is the white "sand" that you are using in some of the tanks? It looks great.
Are you using the built in automatic pressure shutoff to turn the return pump off when you close the valve? Great video!
Do you know anyone breeding and selling L183 Starlight plecos? I am watching to see when you list Corydoras Axelrodi.
I'm trying to find that exact species myself. Last year at Cataclysm someone was selling L183 during the room sales event for $10 ea. My buddy bought 20 of them, and I passed. Now they're impossible to find.
@@TMAquatics Shooter’s Fishroom in Iowa had some they bred ready in February, but they were all spoken for before they shipped anything.
Would you be ok with running a 75 gallon tank with plecos, or African Cichlids with just sponge filters?
Plenty of people do it. Just buy large enough sponge filters, or add extra. ATI Hydro PRO sponge filters work the best. Grab two or three size 5 and you're be fine.
Hi, I have a question. Is it possible to put a male plico with two females in the aquarium? And is a cave enough or is a cave necessary for every substance?
Yes, a M/2F trio is fine. Lots of people do that. The Male will get the cave. Personally, I like to make sure the females also have a cave. A single cave doesn't promote breeding. When the females are ready, they'll find the male.
Awesome video. I’ve been debating upping my fish room to as big as yours and I have a question. How much is your electric bill a month?
Honestly I don't know. My wife manages our money. Apparently it's not high enough to make her say anything. In all seriousness though, the fish room operating costs (electric, water, fish food, incidentals) are under $4,000 annually. Every penny of the fish room is fully funded by the breeding and selling of fish. We actually enjoy a healthy profit from the fish room.
amazing video do you mind giving me the dimensions for that stand you built ?
Which one? I built them all. If you're talking about the 60B rack, its 52W x 19D x 57H(?) The middle and top shelf are dado cut notched into the vertical 2x6 posts. The bottom tank sits on 2x4's directly on the concrete floor with insulation between the bottom of the tank and the concrete.
@@TMAquatics yeah the 60B thanks
I read on Bentley's channel where you commented that for your new 60 breeders you tried putting Aquaclear 70's on there but they didn't fit over the lip of the tank. Any idea how wide that lip is? I am looking at replacing the Tidals on my 75gal with 2 Aquaclear 70's, for all the reasons in Bentley's video, and am afraid they may not fit over the lip, just like you encountered.
How do you go about priming the drain hose? Thanks.
A quick suck on the end of the hose. Not ideal, but it works. Once primed, it stays primed until I'm done with water changes, thanks to the ball valve.
I have been wanting to set up a tank of nothing but different types of plecos. Is that something you would recommend or not?
Plenty of people do it. It can be tricky though since plecos can have such a varied diets. If I did that, I would focus on species that have similar diets.
Where the hell do I get a 60 gallon breeder? Only one I can find is Aqueon and those things seem to be long gone sold out ☹️
What light bars are you using on the 60gallon breeders with the black corydoras
Where can I get the shelf you use for your 3 60 gal breeder tanks.
Does.it.take.along.time.for.baby.fish.to.grow
How do you start the drainage siphon? L
I huff and I puff.
Hey bosss you still got plecos available
No Corydoras Duplicareus available?
Soon. They are growing nicely. Only have about 40-45 growing out.
@@TMAquatics that’s awesome, can’t wait!
Can you ship to Trinidad and Tobago
Sorry I cannot ship outside the United States.
Thank you
Will a 60 breeder tank be ok for two oscars to fully grow in?
I doubt it. My son has two Oscar’s in a 75 and it’s a tight fit. He will be upgrading to a 125 soon.
The getgills link isn't working
You're right. Thank you. Its been updated.
This out of your basement or garage ?
Basement.
1st??🙂👍🏻
Thanks Tom, I have learned so much from watching your channel and it's always a great presentation which is also very much appreciated!!! I have no idea the time it would take to create a video such as this ? I assume the average video can easily take several hours , so yeah A Huge Thank You for sharing so much of what is working and no doubt about it , you are a great example of being on a whole other level

Thanks. I don't spend a lot of time on videos and editing, simply because I do not have the luxury of extra time. I'm sure it shows at times. However, I am trying to bring more value and quality to my videos with B-roll and better footage. I did pick up a new camera rig about 6 months ago. So now I can use a more robust editing tool when stitching a video together. Prior to this, everything previous was shot on my iPad and iPhone, with the basic editing tools of iMovie and Videorama. Needless to say, I now have access to better quality video, images, sound, and editing. Just wish I had more time to make more content.
