Bentley I have been in the hobby for 25 + yrs. and learn something new from you on just about every video I watch. All I can say is Thank God for your knowledge of the hobby. Keep it coming we appreciate you.
I loved the video it’s was a lot of information!! As a beginner I enjoyed and appreciated you taking the time to share some tips, I have EXTREMELY hard water and wasn’t sure what to do
Great tips Bentley! Unfortunately I haven’t seen any eggs yet to even worry about that with my pair of rams I’ve had for 10 months lol! Thanks for the info about methylene blue in ich x I have a bottle I’ve never opened before
Amazing video thank you so much after 4 months I finally have a clutch of L134's and searching everywhere for info, your video was awesome thank you for posting!!!!
I just came across your video trying to find the best way to take care of my cory eggs I found in my tank yesterday! I have a small 1/2 gallon plastic container with water from parents tank and an air stone but was so worried about fungus since I have NO Methylene Blue but I DO have ICH-X! Thank you so much and wish me luck, this video made me less worried about the eggs now since they are turning darker and I see little eyeballs! :)
I have angel fish eggs and a fish expert by me said to use methylene. I separated the eggs into a 10 gallon and used the water from the community tank that the parents are in. She told me to use the methylene as directed on the bottle. So I used 1tsp for per 10 gallons, but I feel like it’s too much? What are your thoughts?
I keep losing eggs to fungus, i got methylene blue and it still didn't help, i do have high ph water, so im going to try some of the things you mentioned. 🤞
Oh goodness, THANK YOU for addressing this! I've been so frustrated for the last three years because I just can't get eggs to hatch! I have super hard, high pH water, and this explanation really helped me understand the problem I'm having. I'm not a hopelessly bad fishkeeper, it's just the hard water! I'm not sure where I could find RO water, but you mentioned distilled water? Any tips on how I could use that to help, or do I just need to bite the bullet and buy a small RO unit?
After a year of trying, I finally have angelfish wrigglers! I added 50% distilled water to my 8.2 pH, off-the-strip hard water and added ichX. Still had some eggs fungus, but it doesn't seem to have spread to the other eggs. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU for the advice and explanation!!
I breed CPDs and have for years now, and recently have been having a decline in egg hatching. I checked out this video to see if you could shine some light on my issue... sure as sh!t, I went to look at my stuff (chems, etc) and my Meth Blue is expired.... Idk how I missed that...
I just loved the way you have explained everything.. my problem is liitle different and im not getting the right solution. Actually my anglefish eggs hatch they become wrigglers but they die as wrigglers.. is it M blue thats killing them? Eggs are hatching after just 24 hours and what prople say is to start changing water on day 2.. thats 48 hours since the eggs are in methylene blue. Is M blue killing my wrigglers? Can it kill.. when should i start changing half wafter of the egg container?? Hope ur advice safe many lives😊 .. i have tried hatching eggs 3 times so far
@@NutritionFacts101 I would say try experimenting with doing the water change earlier to see if the methylene blue is the problem. I know from some experience with master breeder Dean, he pulls his eggs out of the methylene blue very fast. In the sense that as soon as he starts seeing wrigglers he removes the methylene blue to get them into fresh water.
@@BentleyPascoe oh man,that sucks! My sterbai just laid 30 eggs and I picked them out and put them in a little container (floating in the tank) and a drop of methylene blue. It looks like the eggs turned blue
When breeding zebra danios could I put an extremely diluted amount into the tank that they are spawning in throughout the hatching process? Or is it toxic to fish
@@BentleyPascoe okay I wasn't sure if a super diluted amount would have an effect, I was wondering if it would just dissipate and become neutralized from all of the detritus and other things in the water. Thank you for the quick response I have fish spawning as we speak, my last batch had hundreds of eggs that did not hatch
Small foods and keep them in similar conditions as the parents. Rice fish can be pretty tough even as babies, which makes them a little easier to raise
Any tips on getting angelfish survival rate to 90+% outside of the first month of life? I lose a lot of babies in the first 2 weeks of a 100-200 egg spawn but if I can get them to survive 2 weeks and a day they’re bullet proof. I usually have 10-20 babies survive of 100-200 egg spawns. Any tips would be appreciated 😅

I do, I've used it in a spray bottle to mist plants with REALLY bad BBA outbreaks before. I just lowered the water level (or pulled out the plant) to expose the algae, gave it a gentle mist, then refilled the tank. the H2O2 (peroxide) almost immediately breaks apart in water to become safe

Thanks for all the information you have in your videos. There's lots to learn....
Very good tips and very helpful. Didn't know about the eggs getting a shell that they couldn't break out of. Makes sense!
I loved the video it’s was a lot of information!! As a beginner I enjoyed and appreciated you taking the time to share some tips, I have EXTREMELY hard water and wasn’t sure what to do

Very good tips took me forever but finally got my Severums to have a healthy spawn.
Amazing video thank you so much after 4 months I finally have a clutch of L134's and searching everywhere for info, your video was awesome thank you for posting!!!!
Congrats!
Corgis are amazing dogs!

Nice video, thanks for the suggestions. Is that a Hillsboro Hops hat? Love it!
Yes it is!

Likely more than you need. I would do a water change to dilute it Unless that person uses the same dosing, then keep as is.
Great info!
I keep losing eggs to fungus, i got methylene blue and it still didn't help, i do have high ph water, so im going to try some of the things you mentioned. 🤞
What is the Water Test kit called and how do we use it? I live in Northern california and get my water from the towns well.
API master test kit
Wonderful info thank you! With mathalyn blue can i put that in before they lay eggs or will that prevent fertilization?
You want to do it post fertilization, it could prevent fertilization otherwise. Cheers!

@@BentleyPascoeThank you so much for an early reply. ❤ 😊
Also peroxide also..
Hello. You mentioned the eggs turning blue in methylene blue. Is the eggs turning blue bad?
That is typically a sign of an unfertilized egg.
@@BentleyPascoe oh man,that sucks! My sterbai just laid 30 eggs and I picked them out and put them in a little container (floating in the tank) and a drop of methylene blue. It looks like the eggs turned blue
When breeding zebra danios could I put an extremely diluted amount into the tank that they are spawning in throughout the hatching process? Or is it toxic to fish
@@bongjamesbong00420 I would not suggest it constantly in the tank, it can cause damage to fry with long term exposure
@@BentleyPascoe what about if it's extremely diluted
@@bongjamesbong00420 long term exposure is still a risk, causes sterility among other things.

Does malachite green works ?
Not really for this purpose
Great info Bentley. I was wondering if you have any experience using hydrogen peroxide?
I do, I've used it in a spray bottle to mist plants with REALLY bad BBA outbreaks before. I just lowered the water level (or pulled out the plant) to expose the algae, gave it a gentle mist, then refilled the tank. the H2O2 (peroxide) almost immediately breaks apart in water to become safe
Awesome
They lay the eggs but the turn white and not hatch
@@jj2brown either fungus or not fertilized
