    Enjoying your videos very much, I’ve only been in the aquarium hobby since April of last year so i’m a newbie eager to learn from generous folks just like yourself. I belong to the Aquarium Coop too and enjoy their live stock very much but I do not like there recent Sponge filters of which I had been happily using in all four of my tanks. However during a pleasant addition of Yo-yo loaches 10 in all in my heavily planted 75 gallon tank I soon realized that these sponges will release the waist it had collected by the slightest knock or nudge 😮. This upset my stable water quality so much I could hardly see through it, I then went to 4 in tank Air Driven Box Filters Filled with tightly packed polyester batting material. This method has worked so well my tank is now crystal clear.

    • @FishTankBarn
      @FishTankBarn  8 месяцев назад +1

      Thank your very much for the kind words. Box filters do a good job of keeping the water clear as long a keep up on them. One trick with sponge filter is to put them in a fish bag before you take the out of the water. I will collect a lot of the waste.

    • @BornAgainFarmGirl
      @BornAgainFarmGirl 8 месяцев назад +1

      I am not that quick @@FishTankBarn and these sponges don't secure the waist from being upset by a Cory or loach of which I have many. Thank you for the tip though 😁.

    I had a bunch of black bar endlers die off except for 1 female, thinking of mixing her with either snakeskin guppies or black moscows.

    • @FishTankBarn
      @FishTankBarn  3 года назад

      It depends on what you plan is with the guppies. If you add the genetics of the endler then you are basically turning your guppy's into mutts and not the strain that you have now. If you want to keep pure strains then I wouldn't mix them.

    I have a question that no one can seem to answer for me...I have one glofish female danio alone in a 5 gallon right now. In the next few weeks I'll be getting a ten gallon tank, where I'll have her and im also adding 2 cory catfish. I want to have only male endlers in there also...BUT the question is, can I add my female glofish with all male fish endlers in the same tank??? pls pls help

    • @FishTankBarn

      You should be fine adding your female glofish. The glofish that are sold in the hobby are not endlers, so you will be fine.
