    Cory, with Dean, is fish nerd royalty. IMO these types of videos, or when you are in Dean's fish room, are just great. Personally I'd love to see Cory and Dean visit some fish rooms together of other top breeders, and get the interaction between all 3 guys. I really think you guys should do some project together, maybe a breeding project with some Apisto species or something somewhat rare, but cool. I know you both work so that's probably not easy but it's just really TH-cam magic when you guys do vids together. Great video guys!

    I'm an absolute Dean fanboy. If there were such thing as a fish breeding apprenticeship I'd want to work with Dean and try to learn every last bit of the volumes of practical knowledge he has.

    Hi Dean. In case of green water: Just take a jarrglas full of tank water, set it on the sunnyest window u have and in 3 days u have plenty of greenwater...u can split it in half( two jarrs) refill, wait another 2.3 days and u have 2 full of so easy.

    Danio is the easiest egglayer. The fry is quite rugged even if theyre quite small. I manage to build my line of longfin golden leopard danio within 1 year of only having some longfin zebra, yellow zebra and leopard danio. Theyre prolific breeders.

    Please have more with you and Dean really enjoyed the talk! My superchat question didn't get brought up but I was wondering what fish you would recommend as a tank mate for my 6 german blue rams, that mostly swim at the top? Want them to be a cool/unique fish, small and schooling. I currently keep the temp at 84, ph is 7, and I have soft water about 50ppm. Also have a bristlenose and about 10 shrimp. Tried serpae tetras but they didn't swim at the top and fought with the gbr's. Any recommendations?

    Hey, Cory. You said in one of your previous podcasts that glas aquariums would get their stability via their edges while acryl aquariums would get it via their bottom. I am talking about that with some people on Facebook now and they tell me they never heard of that before and that it wouldn't be true. I myself can not explain the physics in that. Could you give me/us some information about that?

    • @AquariumCoop
      @AquariumCoop  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It’s the way the aquariums are designed. Look at aquarium stands for example. Only supported around the rim and the weight transfer goes down in the corners. If you make a rimless glass tank they are designed to be fully supported like an acrylic tank.

    Paul Cuffaro _might_ be earnest, but frankly I think he does what he wants without really thinking about long-term. He's a bit careless about what he puts together and in what gallonage. That's just my opinion.
    Thanks for the brine shrimp info; that's the part I always struggled with.
    As for the genetics of the black influencing the temperament, YES, physical characteristic genes CAN be tied to temperament genes.
