no snack this time, but I got a hot mug of oolong tea. It's warming up here in Mass but I've come down with the flu! so I'm just in my dorm doing homework and watching fishtube
I hope that you feel better soon 😷
@@carolinagrammy2735 thank you!
How are you feeling now?
Thanks for another great video 👍

Leftover chicken enchiladas from the Super Bowl. Great tips on Guppies. Thanks for sharing. Cheers.
We had no leftover wings or roast beast!
Thank for watching!
Amen if it works for you then it's the right way. If it ain't broke don't fix it. Great video and keep up the great work.
Thanks Gary! And thanks for watching!
Cinnabon minis warmed up and a tall glass of ice water.
Fun fact....I used be a manager of Cinnabon.
all the successful comments. I must be mentally challenged. I am starting off as beginner... will go to store today and grab some supplies. I lost six in 2 days. I never even checked the pH. My UFC to the death guppy cage match has got to end. I bought one yesterday that dropped a bomb.. first poop. killed the others in hours. He is now n a stupor.. looking at me...all by himself.
Just a tip, if you by crap stock, you well get crap results.
We love our guppies
What kind do you have?
Michael's Fish Room mixed class D guppies with fry. Check them out
Class d guppies?
real talk if it works don't change it 100% cheers
This is so true. I wish people understood that!
i use hikary fancy guppy food
Not a fan.
Fresh mozzarella cheese topped with Prosciutto ham and drizzled with Glazed Balsamic.Forgetaboutit
Does your name end in a vowel?
Try Otohimi B2 of Japan and APK of Taiwan
I’ll check it out next time I am in Japan.
@@MichaelsFishRoom You can order it online. Happy guppy keeping!
On point
Thanks!
Michael's Fish Room if you get females already pregnant from God knows who, how long should you segregate to ‘clean’ them out so you have some control of genetics?
davidz121 forever.....
Michael's Fish Room do they live that long? 😎
I’ve read female guppies can retain sperm for over 3 months; I’ve seen close to that long with my own after I separated my adult male from the females & growing out fry
Right on’
Yeah man!
Hi my name is Kevin, I live in Yorkshire in the UK, I like your channel a lot, my question is, is your content any use to me here over in England, I love guppies a lot, I keep hearing all you need is a couple of male guppies and 3 or for 4 female guppies and off you go and you get loads of fry, what ever I do I don't get any babies, where am I going wrong ? any tips for me please. Thank you so much.
So "is your content any use to me"....If you enjoy it, then yes. As far as what you are doing wrong, it could be 100 different things, not all your fault. I would need all the details to try help. The most import thing is good quality stock and good water parameters.
SUPER! thanks for doing this...snacking on clementines and grapes while watching my Guppies and you :-)
So healthy! But no beverage?
I had rabbits, chickens, ducks, pigeons, quails, partridges, lol even a baby sheep at some point etc didn't have any problems at all. Tried goldfish since I was told they aren't demanding and failed miserably 6 years back, I felt awful for killing and stopped trying aquariums. I hope I will have better luck with guppies: bought a ten gallon tank with filter, heater, light and will try plants in it. I watch these videos and they seem super helpful. Before buying the fish, any tip to make sure I will not kill them? What is the easiest hardiest fish to keep?
The key is to buy healthy fish that fit your water.
Great video! Love the Colbolt guppy food use it all the time 😊 Snack is mini sweet peppers stuffed with cream cheese wrapped in bacon to a crispy yumminess!
😆OMG!
Ha ha ha very funny
Venison meat stick, fresh cheese curds (straight from the creamery today) and beer. 💪
I gotta try that cheese curd stuff!
Anther great video.
Yea I'll try those tips and get back to you on if it worked for me
Cool!
Is that food good for like a African dwarf frog and a mystery snail cuz I have that inside my tank too
Yes, is is ok for both.
I use the new life spectrum GROW for my white cloud fry
Do you like it?
@@MichaelsFishRoom yeah its great 👍✌
Just my opinion but I feel it's best to not use any sort of antibiotics if the fishes aren't showing any symptoms in quarantine. If there's an issue then you should of course go ahead with it once you're pretty certain of the diagnosis but if not it's better not to. I really respect that you're doing your best to ensure you don't sell sick fish though!
Fair enough.
Love to buy some
Some?
@@MichaelsFishRoom lol that fish food and the bacon shirt lol
Lady The bacon shirt you can buy at my TeeSpring store using the link in the description!
We get hikari food over here in the UK and my guppys LOVE it
What do you feed?
@@MichaelsFishRoom I feed my guppys hikari semi floating pellets mixed with tetra guppy fry granules
Cool
Snack: Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream
Beverage: water
Thank you for this video!!! Great information
My youngest son’s favorite ice cream!
My favorite beverage!
Hi. How do you keep your aquarium water hard for the guppies?
What is your hardness now?
I got 3 of those Hikari! I love it!
So good right?
@@MichaelsFishRoom They wont stop eating...1 guppy is like 2 lbs...
I'll buy some.
Japanese food?
@@MichaelsFishRoom yes
Scott great! What would you pay for that can?
@@MichaelsFishRoom I don't have a clue. 50 grams?
Hey mike! Been watching for a month now! Love the content! Gotmyself a cup of coffee and a nice bowl of greenery.
Greenery? 🤦🏻♂️
I completely agree with and do everything you said. The one other thing I do that I feel is important is the fry and the adults get live baby brine shrimp every day. Thanks!
That’s a great thing too!
Add half a b vitamin tablet in your brine shrimp to fortify the feed to prevent split tails and improve fin development!
The Chubby Guppy boom! Great idea!
Great video, just some info from what I have learnt over the years. The imported guppies are raised and bred in brackish water glad you breeding local. I use a 1 1 part of each of the the following calcium sulfate, potassiam sulfate,magnesium sulfate, calcium carbonate and 2 parts of aquarium salt. Chocolate milkshake, 40 °c where I stay in South Africa today
Thats hot!
Enjoy your milkshake and thanks for the comment!
I'm giving dried Tubifex to mine. Xtreme Community Crave too.
Nice!
Snack: Lightly salted mixed nuts
Beverage: Dry gin martini chilled with an olive
So fancy!
(You said “nuts”)🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@MichaelsFishRoom I'm not gonna lie. I think my nuts are spectacular!!!
Womens drink
Paul Roberts bwhahahahhaa
What if it's "very hard water" ;-; but every thing else is ideal 🥰 yay
Hard water is good.
I just bought pink Moscow guppies
From where?
@@MichaelsFishRoom from my buddies pet store. Hes had them for a week and look great. I'll quarantine.
Detroit Shrimp & Aquatics nice! Send me pics.
@@MichaelsFishRoom how would you like that sent?
Would you like it texted? Id be able to send video of them, also the others that i cant remember the name
Ice cream. Jenni's Goat Cheese with red cherries
Goat cheese ice cream?
I want some of that HIKARI!
Me too!!
How much would you pay for that can?
How much would you pay for that can?
I dunno, how much are you thinking?
ER Aquatics I have to see what the final cost is when I get them.
What's the difference between PH and hardness how do you measure hardness
PH is a measure of the acidity and alkalinity of water, hardness is a measure of the dissolved minerals in the water. amzn.to/2OH0paW
Oreos and a Pepsi!
Milk! Milk goes with Oreos!
@@MichaelsFishRoom I just wanted a snack. If I had milk I'd eat an entire sleeve of oreos lol.
What causes wasting disease and what do you do about it? Also where do you get that medicated fish food?
Wasting disease is a "catch all term" it is not something specific. You need to find the cause, most likely internal parasites. I use Fritze Expel P from www.KJEaquatics.com
So you put Everything together in the Quentin Tank at the same Time?
Yup
I agree with various food for them but I just realised about the strain's strength ... I have two strain, albino full red & albino platinum that *always sick after they mature* (6 month old) maybe i need to crossbreed them with the stronger strain... Thanks for the tips 👌
I find albinos are weak no matter what you do.
I checked out your site your guppies look great and your pricing is the most reasonable I’ve seen I’ll be placing a order in April for 3 trios 🤩 hopefully my 29g tank will be cycled by then
Great!
Hi Michael not sure if you can help me out I can’t post a picture on this but but av recently woke up fry in my tank am not to sure who they belong to I have swordtails and guppy’s the fry are more of an orange with silver/black ayes but none of my swordtails look pregnant, but to of my female guppy’s look big well one of them are really squared off at the bottom do you think one has gave birth and the other is going to go soon do fry guppy’s look bright orange it’s been a week Though and 15 really healthy fry are still going just not sure if if the other 2 females are pregnant as well ?
I have no idea. Please use punctuation next time.
Were you able to get this food available for us to purchase?
What food?
Excellent advice Michael. 👍👍👍👍
Can you clarify your quarantine method I'm a bit confused.
You start to use meds 12hours after release into tank. All 3 medication at the same time? Furan 2, hikari Ich X and General cure? Yes. Treatment as per tank volume and you feed them mixture of medicated flake food like levamisole only for 1 week. If system good you do a water change and feed regular foods non medicinal ones?
How much water you remove and do you only use sponge filtration during quarantine?
You got it down.
I just turn on the auto water change system, so about 10% daily after QT.
Sponge or box filter.
@@MichaelsFishRoom
AWESOME Sir
Thank you👍👍👍👍
Great tips, I use salt and higher temps with new fish. I also use a wormer we have here in Australia which is a mix of prazaquantal and levamasol to deworm them as guppies nearly always come with worms unless they are from someone who regularly worms their fish.
I feed a mix of high protein pellets, flake, diy gel food full of fresh quality ingredients, microworms. Im about to start breeding brine shrimp in a tub which once its established I will feed that daily or every other day too. Variety is always a good thing.
Sound good!
That wiener sounds like a great thing....what’s is called?
I'd like to hear more about your diy gel food please 😉
@@MichaelsFishRoom its just called discus wormer, sold by gold coast discus. I think they only sell locally in Australia but they may ship os.
@@carolinagrammy2735 I just use whatever veg I have on hand which is usually alot of shelled green peas, zucchini, pumpkin, carrot, canned grean beans, silverbeat.
I usually make it after ive been fishing and caught a few saltwater fish like squid, tommy rough (herring) I usually fillet the fish and remove all bones.
I also add Spirulina, paprika, ground up cuttlefish bones to the mix.
Blend it all in the food processor.
Then either use gelatin or agar agar, put on baking trays, lined with baking paper. In the fridge or freezer for a couple of hours then use a pizza cutter to cut into feeding portions then into zip lock bags.
Plenty of diy gel food vids on here, just watch a few and throw in whatever u want dont forget the ground cuttlefish bones or u can buy calcium powder if u dont have access to them at the beach.
Its trial and error with gelatin, too runny just throw it back in the blender then add more gelatin but I dont care if it breaks up.
I feed most of my fish and snails the same stuff its great.
Jamie m great ide!
My tab water in Miami has chloramine and it start off with .25 ppm in ammonia.
In 5 gallon gallon Marina been using AquaClear using ammonia remover working good and no harm the female betta
I have been out with hurting back my mom slid off the bed onto floor dead weight went neighbor house for help.
Fluval C2 for 10 gallon no fish yet think
Guppies, neon tetra and Corydoras
I’m sorry, are you asking a question?
Can I used ammonia remover to control ammonia
Only a cold beer.
No snack????!
Lol “EEKY EEKY EEKY”. The facts of life with Mike!
Lol....always teaching!
Michael's Fish Room 🤦♂️🤣🤣🤣
Michael, if you get the chance of selling a food you believe in I would definitely try it. Count me in.
Will do!
Wow I didn't pay attention to when you posted a guppy video was coming out lol I feel dumb. One day ago I thought you announced it, but it was a week ago. Good video brother, thanks for sharing!
Lol...thank for watching!
4th just got out of school and 1 minutes late
LOL....I excuse you!
Michael's Fish Room ok
Hi micheal I love this video very good info on it. I feed my guppies northfin flakes. I’m going to buy some pellets for them too.
Thanks!
Try the cobalt ultra guppy!
Michael's Fish Room I will micheal thanks
Daniel Gonzalez it is one of the samples I give with every order.
Michael's Fish Room awesome I try it for my frys I use fry starter from northfin
Daniel Gonzalez that’s good stuff too!
do you have a video on comparing guppy breeder boxes and rank them. i am thinking about getting the penn plax guppy air hose breeder box.
Nope, I don't use them.
Cough drops and diet cola
You need to do better for the next video.
Alright
Just one?
@@MichaelsFishRoom I was thinking the EXACT same thing. Must be an off day for FISHioN TaNkTiCS
Sean Meister lol
Coconut water, cookies and pizza. Fast schedules dinner. 🤷♀️ I have a lot of guppies and special orders bug bites with spiritula, and brine shrimp cubes . For some reason my guppies will NOT touch pellets.
Not a fan of bug bites.
With guppies I use frozen foods and pellets I also add calcium blocks as guppies can breed every 28 days they become calcium deficient keep your water a little on the hard side I have now interbred endlers and guppies to produce "gendlers" they live longer and breed a little less
Good advice!
Great video Mike. I start qt 1st by the temp acclamation then slowly raise temp to about 80/ 82 and slowly introduce Fritz freshwater salt 1tbl pr 3 gallion. I keep them in that for about 5 days...I do a 30% water change..wait a week do another 30%. I also feed the medicated foods from Everything Aquatic for parasites. I typically keep new fish in qt for a min of 4 weeks...have done 8 to 10 weeks on fish that shipped in sick to do 2 rounds.
Snack and beverage...waiting on dinner..chicken, and have iced tea. By the way..I do have gen cure and ickX and use it only if the salt treatment don't look to be working after a 2nd treatment. I'm cheap and salt is cheap and usually works well. :)
If it works, it’s right!
Hope you are feeling ok!
@@MichaelsFishRoom Thanks Mike. Feeling like poop..lot of pain in my hip lately...SSDI hearing next month. This A.S disease sucks for real!
@@MichaelsFishRoom Hey...I had a little breeding project I tried..I bred my red mosaic dumbo to one of my hb neon blue females ...oooh..keep an eye on my fb page. I'll get pics pics up tomorrow of the juv. fish that are starting to color up. :) Nice cross for sure.
Salt and temp is a great tool for alot of things and can be a great preventative measure!
Lisa N.J. Will do!
OUTCROSS for healthy and strong gupps!
OK
I have been feeding Cobalt Ultra Pellet Guppy to my least killis and Endlers based on Michael's recommendation for guppies. They love it and are doing well. I also feed Sera Micron to fry. It smells like perfume. Am I having a stroke? Is it any good? They seem to like it.
I’m not a fan of sera, but I have not tried that one.
bro this man did not just call me a fishy folk lmaoooo
Bro, he sure did.
Snack: Critical hog live sugar
Beverage: Water
Thanks for the vid
Yum
Nice job buddy! Powered by baking is the new "I'm fine" ?
Bacon old, powered by bacon.
Who owns guppies here for REAL?
"I do"! My snack is organic baby sweet peaches and a cold water bottle.😃👍 thank you Michael for your videos. 💖🙏
I do! LOL
Thanks for watching!
General cure tends to kill off my guppies, any particular reason for that?
Most likely they are weak to begin with, so the GC kills some bb and the tank goes through a mini cycle, that’s what kills the guppies.
11:14 - 11:20 I died here 😂💀 thanks for the tips Michael! very informative video indeed.
Glad you liked it!
A couple of my guppies are rubbing their sides on rocks and gravel. What should I do and or treat them with.
You need to figure out why they are doing that.
@@MichaelsFishRoom after talking with other fish owners, it is ICK. Can’t see it, I have added the meds and already they are acting better.
Thanks
@@harleym50 Good!
Are you selling guppies at the Gaithersburg Maryland meet?
I can bring them if you order them, but I won’t have a vendor table.
@@MichaelsFishRoom gotcha thank you...so is shipping free lol
Darrell Shields yup. Order online at my website, www.michaelsfishroom.com and choose no shipping, will pick up. I’ll bring it with me!
Is it okay to keep guppies and yo-yo loaches together in a 30gal tank?!?
I don't know anything about yo yo loaches.
Love guppies but could never get fancy or dumbo guppies to breed
Why not?
@@MichaelsFishRoom idk just bad luck or something
Yanji Yang or bad stock?
I add snowflake tears to my guppy water as a supplement. My guppys look amazing and healthy. I have found my guppies arent fussy when it comes to food. Hikari fancy guppy food, omega flakes and shrimp pellets, bug bites work great. Planted tanks work best especially for young fry.
I bet if you switch to better foods, you will see even more amazing!
Why do you forget about the 56th tank with angels? You’re not only successful in breeding guppies and bn plecos but have been instrumental in breeding angels, mollies, plates, etc. Don’t sell yourself short and share all that knowledge. I realize right now it’s guppies but you are so knowledgeable in the hobby. Love ya Michael and what you are doing to help us in the hobby 🥰
Hey Florida! That tank will be in an update soon!
I know it’s a year later. But it’s soo controversial; but do Guppies like current or not? I have a 55gal with a HOB filter bio wheel rated up to 70gal tank. I also have 2 air stone that can create crazy current but I turn them about half way down bc I’m not sure. Plz help
I don’t notice an issue either way. As long as they are healthy, they should be fine.
can you use a quarintie tank as a breeder? I am trying to start my breeding for profit project, and I dont have a quarantine tank now
On your auto water change system do you have special filters to take the chlorine out or do you dose Prime or any other solutions for the chlorine I'm about to do a auto water change system in I would like to know that before I do that
I have a carbon filter and sediment filter. Search the channel for “auto water change” I have videos about it.
Cherry limeade and an apple.
Is letting them fight good for them? I’ve got one that likes to fight and I just sort of let them, but they don’t tear up the fins too bad.
That is a weird combo.....
Depends on why they are fighting.
I try to stem the aggression though, don't what them getting jacked up.
Michael's Fish Room They’ve been in there for over a year doing it so if it’s bad they’ll probably die of old age soon anyway. ;)
