Awesome volcanic island scape! Want to get empire gudgeons to go with parkinsoni and Lake Aytingo' rainbows Only trouble with the empires is that you get maybe two or 3 fry. Have 6 Australian desert gobies on order.
hey, Aussie gudgeon keeper here, these tankmates are not a great idea, the purple spotted gudgeons, even at their current size are big enough to eat those peacocks, when I breed purples, I feed the pairs feeder fire tail gudgeons of that size to get them spawning, they eat at night when the lights are out so the small fish will slowly just disappear and wont be noticeable at first, they are pretty voracious predatory fish, also very aggressive when they spawn and will knock the scales off tank mates. the Snake head gudgeon (Giuris margaritacea) (you refer to as a rainbow gudgeon) is probably only half grown, they easily get a foot long, it can also potentially eat the peacocks at current size but, unlike the purples, will grow much larger
I’ve had purples as far back as 30 years ago. What I have found interesting about them is they rarely went after fish the size of a peacock gudgeon - especially if the fish were in the same tank from the start.
Hey guys, as a flooring guy, I'd suggest a vinyl click. They're water friendly and you can get them with a good bit of padding on the underside which helps with echoes and it doesn't get nearly as chilly as conventional vinyl and or tile. Oh and I actually keep Empire Gudgeon and peacock Gudgeon in a heavily planted 40. Probably my favorite species. God bless
silicon carbide is an inert naturally occurring black sand that is also manufactured for sand blasting. Available in multiple sizes from .01 to .09 inch. Available at sandblasting supplier locally and very economical
It won't scratch it more than any other gravel. The rumors about sensitive barbels are just that. Silicon carbide won't do any harm to corys or any other bottom dwellers. The edges are not as sharp as broken glass.
Absolutely love this tank! What is the scientific name or snother name for what you were calling a "Rainbow Gudeon" because when i look that up all that is coming up is peacock gudeons and i want to do research on the larger ones you have so i can maybe purchase one for my 55 gallon tank. Thank you!
Yall should get the black diamond blasting sand from tractor supply. It’s waaaaay cheaper than petco or petsmart prices and it’s exactly the same stuff. Comes in different sizes even.
Omg! Little behind in watching your videos. This tank is AWESOME. I love all those fish. I've had peacock gudgeons. They're one of my favorite fish. Been considering gobies. This is totally my vibe. Love, love, love this. Great job!
Oh wow! it looks “fintastic”!! 😉🤩 I’ve been wanting peacock gudgeons but they are $28 each at my LFS. They said one would be fine in my 10 or 20 gallon community tanks, is that true?? 🤔
I had to take apart my 75 gallon because we are moving. As I was taking out my Cory Cats I originally had 11 but lost 2. I sold them thinking I only had 3-4 but ended up finding 9. Those things love to hide!
Do you think your rainbow gudgeon would end up eating the peacock gudgeon? I have one about 6 inches, and he doesn't seem predatory, but I keep him with bigger tankmates. Yours looks like a similar size, so very curious what you think.
Do you worry about the purple spotted jumping out of the tank? Mine goes nuts when I feed him and has more than once jumped and smacked his head into the glass lid while eating
??? Another beautiful arrangement and entertaining video! Question - do the bristlenose plecos need wood? I added an oddball piece of wood to a tank for the pleco because I thought he required wood. Appreciate you!
Jason, when you were first releasing the big rainbow fish, you called it a rainbow gudgeon, then when you were speaking about each one towards the end you called it a Rainbow Gobie, are gobies, gudgeons? or was that just a oopsie?? lol.😊
Love, love, love this! The fish are so cool and show up very well. I have thought the plecos needed wood to munch on. No? I would kill for the laser corys! ❤️
I love those fish. Tank looks great! I still can't find anyone that can help me figure out how to stock an old 40gal tall. It's 30L×24T×12W. Actually I think its39.5 gal but I'm fully planting it out so probably won't stock it until spring. And suggestions for top and middle tank would be welcome. Thanks ❤️ you guys. Liz
@@PrimeTimeAquatics I was thinking may swordtails I've never done those. What would maybe be something that could go with. I'll do Corey's and probably a bristle nose pleco for the bottom dwellers. Panda cores maybe?
Simply beautiful! Thank you! Do you have a scientific name for the largest rainbow gobies? I'm having trouble finding them on line... Thanks in advance!
I have 2 snakehead gudgeon, a gold bar gudgeon, and 2 purple gobys in my one of my 75s and they are my centerpiece. Absolutely love em! Highly recommend if anyone finds em. The gold bar is kind of a grump, otherwise the others are wet pets
Stupid question... Is this just in your house or is this a business? Also, I did find your website and although I haven't read a lot on there yet, I noticed you're in Illinois. I live in Colorado, but grew up in Illinois. 🤙🏼 Much love, you two. ❤
This tank looks absolutely awesome! I was so excited to hear Gudgeons & Gobies! Gudgeons are my absolute favorites!. I started keeping them about 4 yrs ago. I recently started keeping gobies about 6 mos ago. Great idea guys!
Random but at all my local pet stores I’m told gobies have to be alone because they’re territorial? I got a singular bumblebee because the lady had told me I can only have one in my 20 gal
Jason I see you’re using an OASE canister on the low boy. I replaced the return & uptake from my Biomaster with Sicce counterparts. I found the Oase parts did fit “snugly “. Otherwise I m very happy with the performance of the Biomaster Thermo 250.
This is a beautiful aquarium. You could call this aquarium the Gudgeon Aquarium or the Goby Aquarium. The Purple Spot, Peacock, Empire and Rainbow are all Gudgeons. All Gudgeons are Gobies, so you could just use one word in the aquarium’s title. What’s the scientific name on the fish you called Rainbow Gudgeon? When I search rainbow gudgeon on Google I get results for peacock gudgeons.

I love the Gudgeons and Gobies theme! The scape turned out awesome!
I love it, it looks like an underwater mountain or volcano. It’s perfect for the fish.
I love lowboys. That island in the middle with the flow going around is awesome!
Gudgeon, and Gobi and Coreys, oh my, dungeons, and Gobis and Corey‘s oh my gudgeon and Gobe and Coreys oh my……….. we’re off to see the wizard
Awesome volcanic island scape! Want to get empire gudgeons to go with parkinsoni and Lake Aytingo' rainbows Only trouble with the empires is that you get maybe two or 3 fry. Have 6 Australian desert gobies on order.
fantastic arrangement, very awesome inhabitants too. The words Gallery Showcases come to mind.
Thank you!

I love the new scape! Very nice 🐠 🌱🏔️ 🌱 🐟
I like the Purple Spot Goby, they have similar colors to the Markurdi Longfin I have. Love the whole tank!
How did I miss this? 😮 That looks great!
Thanks 😀

.... Now I need a new tank to devote to purple spot gobies... They're BREATHTAKING. DANG IT! I JUST got a new tank and now I need another one.
For my 75 gallon, I used Black Diamond blasting sand (black) from tractor supply. $12.99 for 50lbs. It does need rinsed before using.
silicon carbide is an inert naturally occurring black sand that is also manufactured for sand blasting. Available in multiple sizes from .01 to .09 inch. Available at sandblasting supplier locally and very economical
It will scratch your glass and if you have any fish that interact with the substrate it will cause injury to them.
It won't scratch it more than any other gravel. The rumors about sensitive barbels are just that. Silicon carbide won't do any harm to corys or any other bottom dwellers. The edges are not as sharp as broken glass.
Where do u get those huge purple spot gobies?
I got them from a wholesaler a year or two ago.
I've been planning a 75 gallon scape for several months. I would trade all the aquarium crap I've bought so far for this exact scape, misfits and all!
Absolutely love this tank!
What is the scientific name or snother name for what you were calling a "Rainbow Gudeon" because when i look that up all that is coming up is peacock gudeons and i want to do research on the larger ones you have so i can maybe purchase one for my 55 gallon tank.

Yall should get the black diamond blasting sand from tractor supply. It’s waaaaay cheaper than petco or petsmart prices and it’s exactly the same stuff. Comes in different sizes even.
Looks great! My peacock gudgeons are mean. I’m down to 2 in their own tanks. Attacked each other and other fish (tail nipping).
I forgot to mention that you can get a 50 lb bag of black diamond blasting sand for under $15. I have it in multiple tanks. Works great👌
I love this video. It inspired me to start a goby and fudge on tank. I’m doing tons of research right now. Thank you both
Has to be one of my favorite tanks I've ever seen! Shallow tanks are my favorite and I LOVE gudgeons and gobies 😍 Very cool!!
Thank you!
omg no wait name the tank Gudgeons and Dragonstone!! (sorry gobies)
You guys should do a short on paradise fish (paradise gourami)!
This room looks like the fish section of the museum in animal crossing
Gorgeous tank. I'd have to have a little turtle in there.
Love those fish!!🤩those gobies are so amazing looking😍Great job on the tank guys!!
Another great tank! Can’t wait to see what you come up with next.
Wish I could find a lowboy tank in my area
Omg! Little behind in watching your videos. This tank is AWESOME. I love all those fish. I've had peacock gudgeons. They're one of my favorite fish. Been considering gobies. This is totally my vibe. Love, love, love this. Great job!
Thank you!
Awesome setup. And stunningly beautiful fish. Thanks for sharing
Thank you!
BEAUTIFUL scape…and GORGEOUS fish‼️‼️
Question…are the Gudgeons prone to jump, especially since you have them in a low aquarium?
Not really - they seem to do ok.
Oh wow! it looks “fintastic”!! 😉🤩 I’ve been wanting peacock gudgeons but they are $28 each at my LFS. They said one would be fine in my 10 or 20 gallon community tanks, is that true?? 🤔
Yep - one would be fine!
I had to take apart my 75 gallon because we are moving. As I was taking out my Cory Cats I originally had 11 but lost 2. I sold them thinking I only had 3-4 but ended up finding 9. Those things love to hide!
Yes they do!
Do you think your rainbow gudgeon would end up eating the peacock gudgeon? I have one about 6 inches, and he doesn't seem predatory, but I keep him with bigger tankmates. Yours looks like a similar size, so very curious what you think.
Full grown - it’s possible.
My peacock gudgeons don’t look nearly that big. I’ve had them for like 8 months.
They don't grow super fast. : -)
Adore my Peacock G..nice tank
Beautiful aquarium. However, would the purple spotted gudgeons eat the other fish? I think they got big mouths
They’re about full grown now and have been with those fish since the beginning. Haven’t had any issues with them.
What a beautiful tank! Well done! ❤
Did your purple-spots grow their fins back? Love the d&d theme! ⚔️
Ya they are growing back!
Do you worry about the purple spotted jumping out of the tank? Mine goes nuts when I feed him and has more than once jumped and smacked his head into the glass lid while eating
They haven't but I found my large rainbow goby on the ground. :-(
Are they shrimp safe in particular peacock gudgeon’s…!?!
No they will eat shrimp!
??? Another beautiful arrangement and entertaining video! Question - do the bristlenose plecos need wood? I added an oddball piece of wood to a tank for the pleco because I thought he required wood. Appreciate you!
They don't need it the way other plecos do, but they sure do like it!
Jason, when you were first releasing the big rainbow fish, you called it a rainbow gudgeon, then when you were speaking about each one towards the end you called it a Rainbow Gobie, are gobies, gudgeons? or was that just a oopsie?? lol.😊
This guy is usually found as a rainbow goby on the internet when searching.
Is it just called the rainbow goby because when I try to look for them all I’m finding is the Stiphodon goby?
Giuris Margaritacea
My faveeee video! AWESOME JOB! The tank looks great
Thank you!
I love the way their imperfections don't bother you. As for the echo, I hardly noticed it.
Good to hear!
Love, love, love this! The fish are so cool and show up very well. I have thought the plecos needed wood to munch on. No? I would kill for the laser corys! ❤️
Bristlenose don’t. They like it, but don’t need it.
Also, I love the AI lights. All my tanks have them. They make a difference. The shimmer they provide makes the tanks look great.
I agree!
This is one seriously sexy tank.
Seeing that you have some bristlenose in the lowboy, wouldn't you want some wood?
They don’t really need it.
Rainbow Coelacanth !!!
Great to see some Australian fish 😊
With open top do you run into problems with jumpers?
Not with these guys.
Saw these today at a lfs here in Japan and you were immediately my go to as always when I need to research fish. You guys are awesome!
Thank you!
Would it be ok to put a pair of peacock goedgens in a 10 gal with some rasboras
Should work ok
How do you keep the fish from jumping out of the open topped tanks?
I try to pick fish less likely to jump. It does happen sometimes.
Gudgeons and Dragons lol
The echo is not bad!
Good to hear 😀
You two are my favorite fish keepers. I love what you are doing in the fish room.
Thank you!
Nice looking tank. I hope none of these species are jumpers.
Nope - they’ve been in that tank a long time.
Gudgeons and Gobies? GG.
lowboy looks awesome love the middle island, and fish look cool, great work👍
Thank you!
I love those fish. Tank looks great! I still can't find anyone that can help me figure out how to stock an old 40gal tall. It's 30L×24T×12W. Actually I think its39.5 gal but I'm fully planting it out so probably won't stock it until spring. And suggestions for top and middle tank would be welcome. Thanks ❤️ you guys.

Most live bearers would use the entire tank?
@@PrimeTimeAquatics I was thinking may swordtails I've never done those. What would maybe be something that could go with. I'll do Corey's and probably a bristle nose pleco for the bottom dwellers. Panda cores maybe?
Simply beautiful! Thank you! Do you have a scientific name for the largest rainbow gobies? I'm having trouble finding them on line... Thanks in advance!

That is awesome!
Love the vids and the podcast! I've been binging it the last month
I love the big gobies
beautiful aquarium!

Whoa that dude is a unit
Awesome tank.

The rockwork looks stunning and an interesting choice of inhabitants just add to the look of this centrepiece set up!
Jason I see you’re using an OASE canister on the low boy. I replaced the return & uptake from my Biomaster with Sicce counterparts. I found the Oase parts did fit “snugly “. Otherwise I m very happy with the performance of the Biomaster Thermo 250.
What kind of substrate did you use on the lowboy?
Black sand from Petsmart.
Well done on the scape, I love it. Thanks for sharing. Purple Spotted Gudgeon is one of my favorites also.
I miss my peacock gudegeon pair. RIP Swimothy and Finelope.
Great job on the low boy. How often do you have to top off the water?
Once per week - it’s evaporating a LOT!
This is a beautiful aquarium. You could call this aquarium the Gudgeon Aquarium or the Goby Aquarium. The Purple Spot, Peacock, Empire and Rainbow are all Gudgeons. All Gudgeons are Gobies, so you could just use one word in the aquarium’s title.
What’s the scientific name on the fish you called Rainbow Gudgeon? When I search rainbow gudgeon on Google I get results for peacock gudgeons.
The Gudgeons and Gobies was a play on Dungeons and Dragons. : -) That is Giuris margaritacea
Came here to say the purple spot is a gudgeon. Southern is endangered, northern is much more common. Only ever heard them called gudgeons here (Aus).
@@PrimeTimeAquaticsThanks. I posted that comment before Joanna explained the aquarium’s title.
Love the theme!
I miss the fish room but the gallery is shaping up. Looks great. Can’t wait to see what’s next.
I like what you’ve done to the place! The lowboy looks very cool. The fish are fantastic. I don’t think I’ve ever run across them before.
Awesome tank, awesome video! The fish look great and the shape of the tank is really neat. I love seeing the cories cruising along
At 16:50 does the intake pick up sand 🤔🤔🤔❓
Not yet 😀
Won’t the peacocks end up being eaten?
Nope - they’re pretty smart and also have lots of structure.
Great work guys love the Gobi & Gudgeon theme !!! 🔥❤️🔥🔥😎👌🏼
I love this scape! I am putting together a couple tanks for newts, and this is inspirational!
I love it! Especially the Empires and the Peacocks. The scape turned out awesome.
👍👍👍
Great job with the tank…love the selection of fish and plants!!!
I love it. Where do you get your stone from?
That stuff came from a wholesaler a while ago.
❤❤❤
👍
gorgeous tank!
Awesome tank! Love the look and fish. Looks bigger than a 50 gallon
Anyone knows where to get those tanks?
Most fish stores can special order them for you through Zoomed.
Beautiful beautiful beautiful love the scape and the fish 👍👍
Love the scape and fish combo! 🙂👍
I love what you guys are doing. Looks great!
