Well thank you for that, Jeff!

@@garageaquatics2023 your so much more than welcome❤️⭐️🇺🇸

Always a pleasure! Thanks!

Thank you, Curtis!

They have been so much fun. They're just now a year old. They are gorgeous fish. I've got one male I may have to separate before too long. He seems like he's going after another male. So far it's nothing serious. Just a bit of sparring. I moved two into low tubs that were seeming to have a difficult time breaching. I really want to give breeding Bettas another go, but I should probably figure out what I'm going to do with these. Thanks, Steffan!

Thanks, Keith! I hope you have a fantastic week ahead!

Thank you, Merb!

Thanks, Jorge!

Thanks, Jeff. Let me see what I can do about that.

Thanks, Brandon!

Thanks, Chuck! It really is fun to see everyone's different styles and techniques. I've really learned a lot just by watching other people. I haven't really had that problem with the water fouling in the shrimp tanks. Ocassionally it'll get murkey. But it just seems to make good sense to freshen the tanks up regularly. ~Ron

​@@garageaquatics2023Might be my feedings doing it, I also can't get plants to survive in their tanks too well, other than duckweed.... of course.

@@ChucksFeeesh Maybe try putting plants in pots. It make them easy to deal with - a bit of substrate, plants, then a bit of sand or graavel to hold it all together. Just a thought. 🙂

@@garageaquatics2023 I'll definitely give it a shot!

She is such a pushy little furball!

Lol you could hear the "right MEOW!" In her kitty voice.

My pleasure, Alex! I guess I probably ought to name them one of these days. Thanks!

Thank you, Jeff!

Hey Ben! Once upon a time Mexicali Fishkeeper gave me a few of what he called Mutt Guppies. This was one of the hundreds of fry that have since come along. He caught my eye so I pulled him out to see what might happen. There are new fry in the tank I noticed yesterday. We shall see. ~Ron

Frequently Mutt Guppies are my favorite, can wait to see how it goes

@@LakeMissoulaAquaticsandPlants Me too, Ben. They're always good for surprises.

Thank you, Mark! I do appreciate it.

Thank you very much! ~Ron

I think the adults may have. That's why I ended up moving them out.

That'd look awesome! I'd say go fror it! Tanks for lookin'!

It took me a couple tries, but fortunately things seem to be working.

Yeah. Me too!

@@pelhamsaquatics thank you, Jeff! Those platys breed like mice!😁

@@SkullAquatics thanks, Curtis!

Thank you, my friend. Enjoy your weekend!

Cheers, Iain!

Tanks, Merb!

Those two I lovingly refer to a knuckleheads. Yeah. I think they did clear out the Blue Dream shrimp I tried to establish in that tanks. Well lesson learned. No Angelfish and shrimp in the same tank! I've had a hell of a time trying to get a colony of Angelfish going for that tank. They were the two lone survivors out of seventeen. Then a while back I added another and it lasted for just a couple weeks. I'm not sure if these two bullied it to death, or it ws just a week fish. But these two have grown well. I've got one more (out of five) in a quarantine tank. The other four just dropped off one by one. I think commercially bread Angels are just weak fish.

​@@garageaquatics2023I've never had luck with Angels either. I'd like a young colony to grow on. I just hear so many stories of how nasty they can be to each other once they sexually mature 😮

@@alextimothy147 I haven't heard that. I watch another channel called Adrian's Fishroom. He's got an eight foot tanks with a school of Angels, Electric Blue Acara and more and everyone seems to play well with each other. MD Fishtanks does as well. I figure I'll just keep worknig on it. I think I just need to find a better source.

Oh yeah. It'll go from top to bottom in a heartbeat!

Tanks, Merb!

Oh, wouldn't that be great!!! We're good, Alex, and hope you are as well! Cheers, Mate!

Yeah, Russ. We are. Thanks! We just got back from a little road trip from home (Palm Desert, California) to visit our kids at Fort Bliss, El Paso, Texas. It was an absolutely beautiful drive and a wonderful visit. And we hope you're well too. And still on holiday if I remember correctly?

@@garageaquatics2023 that’s great news buddy. Keep safe! Im ok mate. Still off work, doing the livestreams. We will have to sort a collaboration when you get back

@@BGN_Aquariums We got back Tuesdday evening, So anytime, Russ. We can set it up through TH-cam or I have StreamYard so we can set it up through that.

It certanly is. I've been selling it almost as fast as it can grow on eBay. I put these two little, short videos up unchecking that box I mentioned in one of those live streams. So it doesn't go into subscribers feeds. I did it before trying to boost subscribers. I'll revert back to the traditional way of uploading. Tanks for lookin' Merb!

We had a fantastic trip to El Paso. We just spent time with the Kids. Tanks, Merb. Hope you're well.

I know it grows like a weed. I have it in tanks in my garage and in no time it absolutely fills them! But I'll tell ya, I don't have hair algae in those tanks. Only in other tanks where more light gets past the guppy grass. I really do like it. In three of the 20 gallon tanks I have it in I have Neocaridina shrimp and they love it. They're usually all up in the guppy grass feeding. I do have guppies in those same tanks, so I do get where you've got to clear a patch just for swimming room. And I notice loads of guppy fry on the surface hanging out over the guppy grass too. I'm just thinking about setting a tub outside now that it's cooling down a bit. Although I might load it up with hornwort. Another super fast grower! I do appreciate you chmming in. Thanks for coming by. Have a fantastic weekend! ~Ron

I'm going to see if I can trick them out again with a big water change. I haven't done one of those in a while.

@@garageaquatics2023 yea even I have done like 50% water changes and they stay hidden. Hopefully you can trick them

@@razinfishes1918 I'll give it a shot in the next couple days.

@@pelhamsaquatics yup. Mine too. Anything Dave Brubeck!

@@josepolanco1228 me too! And really anything Dave Brubeck.

@@garageaquatics2023 jazz lover since teens, Around 1976 breezin george benson among others hooked me

@@josepolanco1228 I love that straight ahead jazz.

@@markfranklin8831 thank you, Mark. I feel like they could easily survive on microbes in the plants, so I’m not too worried.

@@pattys_aquatics no they are not!😁 I really like the fry tray. Now I need more fry to put in it. I think it’ll take a few months to get rolling, but once it does it should go exponential.

@@josepolanco1228 hello, Jose!

Thanks, Charlotte!

Thank you, Mark!

Thank you, Jeff. I really like that fry tray. Now I need some fry to put in it. 😁

@@garageaquatics2023 Ron, I’m sure you’re gonna have plenty of fry to put in that fry tray

@@pelhamsaquatics oh yeah. Eventually. 😁

@@razinfishes1918 oh, likewise! Thanks for lookin, Scott!

@@MerbeastsFishRoom-s7e thank you, Merb!

@@Merb34st tanks for watching! 😁🇺🇸

@paulstingray Eliza sells them. I hope I spelled that right. She’s got the license to 3D print them from Lowell’s Fish Lab. She’s somewhere in your neck of the woods. I saw her selling them at an auction at a school on either Katie’s Cichlids or Keeping Fish Simple. She also showed them one time when Nick toured her fish room. It’s a great tray. There’s all kinds oh homemade versions of course.

@@paulstingray 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣❗️❗️

@@paulstingray they really are. It’s funny how half the spawn will look like species though.

@@josepolanco1228 it really is!
