Glad the fish made it, I've had heaters go bad and then its panic mode. Fish dieing on there sides it sucks.Hope you and family get better its going around.
Didn’t lose any fish at all! Honestly not a single one which truly baffles me. We’re talking fish from equatorial countries such as Panama, Costa Rica. They would never have temperature swings like this in the wild. No issues at all, like it never happened! But it did happen...again so needless to say the programable timer is happening this week!
I'll take your green shrimp colony! Ta-da... problem solved.. 😉 Great video as always... don't know how many times I've almost had a problem, due to distraction while water changing... So glad everybody turned out ok though. Love the goodeieds! 😍
It’s absolutely ridiculous that it happened again. Literally all the water changer needs is to be plugged into a programmed timer. Honestly that’s all. Just been running around so much lately. I was absolutely gutted when I saw what had happened but honestly no a single fish has been lost nor any signs of any issues what so ever since. I’m very lucky.
Biggs! You are lucky there were no cochianus in those tanks! You would have had to deal with a massive case of sphincter shrinkage!! Hope you and the family feel better soon!
Hey Brother, do me a big favour! When you complete the terrarium, get a Strawberry Dart Frog and call it Jason. We can't have them in Australia. I love those things man! Always wanted one. Think about it Brother, great terrarium subject and when you get over run with Isopods, problem solved. Glad your fish picked up after their traumatic experience. Tank wipe outs are devastating. J
Lol Thanks but it still doesn’t make me feel any better Zenin. I so beyond thankful that there have been literally zero issues or deaths with the denizens of the two tanks
Biggs is a monster! Once was more than enough. It could easily have been avoided. The timer will happen this week! Thank you kindly Nancy! All the best for 2020!
Thank you very much for your thoughts. Everyone is slowly on the mend. Reality is it shouldn’t have happened a second time! Once should have been enough to make it happen. Second time regardless of circumstances IMO is abusive. These critters depend on me and I failed them. The programable timer is happening this week! I’m just very thankful everyone made it through without any issue. Even today not a single death or any issues whatsoever.
How hard would it be to just make that a slow continuous wc system? Everything I do in my fish room I have to set a timer on my phone or I would have a disaster a day:/
I’ve never been a fan of drip systems personally. I have used them in the past just not my thing. As my main focus has always been in breeding fish I’ve always prefers this style where I have more control over the automation. That being said this problem is 100% of my own fault and could easily have been avoided. The whole system (which I’ve used for well over thirty plus years now without honestly any issues until this fishroom) can easily be 100% automated I.e: finished by simply plugging it into a programable timer. That’s really all that hasn’t happened. I can say that I was truly gutted when I walked into the room and saw what I had done. I truly thought I had lost everything. But truthfully the next morning, even today their have been zero issues to any of the inhabitants and not a single death. I’m floored but it definitely shows their resilience. Regardless the timer is happening right away! Not fair to the aquarium fish in my care to have gone through this not once by twice now. Thank you for your comments and continued support. All the best for 2020!
Cool. Glad everything is ok. Get your family better.
One day at a time. From what I’ve heard everyone’s getting sick.
Thank you very much
Man I really enjoy your videos. When shit goes sideways you own it. Thanks for keeping it real.
I’m honoured my friend. I’m totally transparent. The reality is we all screw up... hopefully we (I) can learn from such mistakes lol
Oh man those are some hardy buggers. Hope you guys feel better soon!
Everyone is slowly on the mend thank you lovely lady

Thank you kindly for the thoughts and comments. We’re all in the mend albeit slowly.
@@themadaquarist That would definitely have to be New Year's resolution.

Now that’s funny!
Thank you kindly Peter for the well wishes and always for your support.

I have overflowed my 100 gallon tank while sitting at my computer in the same room ;)
Lol Thanks but it still doesn’t make me feel any better Zenin. I so beyond thankful that there have been literally zero issues or deaths with the denizens of the two tanks
Got some really nice monties. Those males are beauties. And you should absolutely put plants in the massive tank. It will actually fit some big swords
Wait till you see the video on them coming out shortly. Kevin’s tank is crazy with them.
Oooo that will be sick. I think you showed me a picture of his Monty swarm before. Beautiful species, one of my fav livebearers
We all have that happen. I partially flooded my basement last week . I think I can do only 1 thing at a time ..lol
As I get older some days I struggle with one thing lol
we have all had this happen and if someone says they haven't it's a lie. Feel Better soon!
Biggs is a monster!
Once was more than enough.
It could easily have been avoided. The timer will happen this week!
Thank you kindly Nancy!
All the best for 2020!
The Goodieds were probably just wondering what all the other fish were lying down for
Exactly... they got their cool down period! Lol
So scary! I'm glad they're doing ok. We all make boo-boos from time to time. I hope your family gets well very soon.
