Dick Johnson , when he was alive, lived there in Az. He showed Swordtails in the IFGA and was one hell of a good breeder. I am glad to count him as a friend in my life. It would be great if some other person from Az would get onto the IFGA bench and start dominating a class.
Plants will grow in any substrate for the most part, Just avoid gravel vaccing if they're root feeders, if they're column feeders it wont matter at all!
We keep our lights on for 8-12 hours a day depending on the plants in the aquarium. The ponds light cycle is naturally controlled of course. If your lights are being kept on in that range, the issue could be too many nutrients. Overload of nutrients can be a result of too much fertilizer or decaying matter (food, plants, dead stuff). This can be resolved by adding more plants and cleaners (corys, shrimp, etc.) or reducing the amount of food/nutrients. For really clear water you need a good balance between light, plants, and nutrients. Any imbalance will result in algae or dying plants.

I checked again, all the breeding boxes are filled with pearl weed, some of it is throwing down roots and has a lot of space between leaf's so it looks a little different. Other than that I spotted a couple small Taiwan lily in the breeding box as well!
@@BishopAquatics I live in Texas & it can get up to 125-135-plus(air temp) degrees in our small back-yard due to the Summers in August & the concrete pad around the small pool. I don't think the concrete pad cools down enough during the summer. Our nite-time temperatures during August is 85°. We do not even take our dog out. Should I keep my guppies inside or can they survive the heat? We bought this house from owner's who we think lived here from the 1960's. I am just a very small hobbyist? - Thank-you for doing your Video.
@@raisinggoldfishonabudget7058 We try to be very open and honest with all our successes, failures, and what we do about each of them! In the case of sick fry, it does happen. We try to save all fry on birth which leads to some having weak genetics and require some medicine to make it into adulthood.
What do you think of the new grow out room?

Hi. How many hours of light do you keep your tanks on a day please? Mine gets alot of brown algae on the glass.
We keep our lights on for 8-12 hours a day depending on the plants in the aquarium. The ponds light cycle is naturally controlled of course. If your lights are being kept on in that range, the issue could be too many nutrients. Overload of nutrients can be a result of too much fertilizer or decaying matter (food, plants, dead stuff).

@@BonnieGBell-ul5eh Hey Bonnie did you checkout our outside pond videos? They're based in Phoenix, AZ which has similar temps!
He called it the guppy room then he said right after the “gaper” room
Do you separate the m/f fry.
We do not separate our male and female fry. Once they're colored out we cull the unfavorable ones into our mutt guppy tubs.
Don't forget overcrowding stunts guppies and in nature 9/10 of those fry would get eaten before adulthood
Very good video boss!but some guppy fry are sick in your tank???

@@BishopAquatics funny how the person never answered back.
