I have 5 cats....after one of them smashed through a lid and into a 55 at 2 am, then she came up on the other side under a different lid and was drowning when I got to her and snatched her out....I built canopies for every one of my tanks. the cats lay on top of them and they and my fish are safe . fairly easy to build and they make the tanks look a lot nicer .
Love this! Love too the honesty. Fish tanks are WORK, & at their best, something always needs to be done in each one. I gave my guppies (a few hundred) to a contact who had a 75G w/ only 7, small community fish. He also keeps frogs and axolotl…so I think that’s where his extras go.
Loved the tour and loved all yours tanks! It felt like I was right there and the best part is, and it’s not that they it didn’t look amazing but it looked like a fish tank and not some over the top production piece, this being said again your tanks are beautiful and I love you guys so much! Stay happy and healthy my friends! 😊❤
I loved the fish room tour! The amount of space you got in there is awesome. Got some great things going on in there too! Great to see some other peoples rooms as well 🙂
This is amazing. I love watching aqaurium tours like this. Your aquariums are amazing, even the ones Carl messed with. Thank you, Jon and Lisa, KGTropicals.
Wow y’all really do have a lot of fish and tanks. I like what y’all are doing keep it up. I’m a new fish owner. I have two beautiful beta fish and I just wanted to add some more fish so I been watching y’all for like four days now and seen all the snails and I had to have them so I went to y’all website and got some. thank y’all very much.
Carl is like "If I don't look you in the eye, I didn't do it". Nice tour and if my wife sees the Wednesday tank, I know what is going to happen, she is obsessed with that show.
Hey mate . I haven't lived in a house with a cat since 1977 ? Don't mind patting one every now and then , eliciting the inevitable purr , but dogs are the best people .
I like the natural look of your tanks. You don’t want a sterile tank environment like some other folks keep their tanks so clean. That’s when you get issues. Great video.
Wow the tanks are gorgeous! Wish we had a fish shop here in New Glasgow, Nova Scotia. We have one pet store and he’s an older man, so there’s only a few different fish that he has! I just started my fish hobby in March. I have two fancy goldfish, in 20 gallon, one betta fish in a 5 gallon, and 3 guppies in 10 gallon, and they had their first babies on the 19 th, I was so excited, only got 6 babies, it was like Christmas morning, lol their in the breeder box right now😊 Love you guys🥰
Uh oh, Carl's in trouble again! Carl, how could you?! 😆 Also, what is it about tank lids? Mine is constantly neglected 😬 though the rest of my tank is definitely not 😆 It's adorable when John refers to any and all fish and animals as adorable. Not what you would expect to hear (unless of course you've been watching for a while) and it gets me every time 🙂
I loved this tour!! On John's part, I especially love the saltwater and yellow lab tank! Also Lisa, your tanks are so beautiful with all of the lush plants 🥰
Loved this video!! I love your relentless pursuit of your hobby. I teared up watching the video of the cat enclosure because it was just so joyful! I love seeing the real-life highs and lows of fishkeeping. ❤🐟
Thanks for the fish room tour ! Loved the Diana Halstad bowls. Mine is doing great too , watched the video with Diana a few times ! My Ramshorn snails from you are so pretty and multiplying ! 😊
Hi I'm from England and I've been watching your videos for years.I have kept fish all my life and have picked up so much of your channel over the year. Beats trying to look thinks up in a library KERP IP THE GOOD WORK
Been missing this kind of video from you guys! Love it. Wouldn’t mind a close up on some of those tanks, they’re really interesting and fun to look at :)
You both have some beautiful tanks i love the videos John and Lisa keep up all the great work on the tanks. Oh carl you are the man lol😂 just dont brake anymore lids
I love, love, love this video. I only have one negative. I couldn't see ANYTHING in the saltwater tank. It was so dark that I could barely see the outline of the rock structure. It really needed a light on it. I'm sorry. I don't mean to complain, but I'm just letting you know in case you're not aware of it. Love you guys.😊
Team KG tropical awesome video guys loved the update of the old Fish House not you guys do all the time so it was nice to see that. Keep up the great work love the videos. Did you notice every time you brought up Carl name and put the camera towards him, he looked the other way like it wasn’t him doing it❤
7:31 😮 quite the haul for them buggers.. I never got why they are called rabbit snails other than their little hop like movement. They look more like elephants to me.
You two have mastered the art of tank setups. My tank is a mess. There's no consistent theme, the fish don't compliment each other, the plants are so random, it's like a patchwork of a bunch of random stuff. Everything is healthy, grows great, and the tank is nice and clean. It's just not cohesive at all lol
I love these style videos, honestly way better than the list videos in my opinion. Question though for my own sanity because I question myself about this daily honestly. At about the 25 minute mark you mention that those 10 gallon aquariums are unfiltered and you just water change. Cool. My betta aquarium is 6.7 gallons and I have since removed the sponge filter from it several weeks ago. It still has the heater and all the other stuff but he just hates any type of moving water and I've struggled with that since we got him. The tank came with a low flow internal filter we tossed because he didn't like it and then we tried two different types of sponge filters with regulators. I have never experienced a fish that dislikes it that much but he does and its weird to explain. Even on the lowest setting he just avoided that area completely and overall didn't seem as happy. With the filter removed and just relying on water changes he is active as can be, building bubble nest. Feeding regularly. I just monitor the water and change it as necessary and the fish seems way happier. Is this okay? Obviously I'm not gonna let his water get nasty or anything and I monitor it all the time. It takes a single betta quite a while to dirty up 6.7 gallons of water and I keep his tank nice and clean. With this being the case and him being so much happier, is the filter really necessary for that situation? I think the proof is in the pudding so to speak but I would like to confirm this with people that have way more experience than I do. I love the fish room tour, even the tanks yall say are in bad shape look awesome to me. It also has me second guessing my plans for my 55 as large tanks with small fish for some reason I find very appealing. Thanks!
oh so the gold severums ARE still in there. 2 anyway. they look a lot different from their baby selves so i wasn't sure. less gold/yellow in that lighting. was really glad you got them instead of the monster arowana. :]
I've got the same issue with a cat ruining my lids! We have many cats but one just loves what we now fondlyc all "wild water" so always trying to find a way to get to it.
I miss my apple snail wish they weren't illegal now The thing was about the size of a baseball. It would come to the top of the tank so I could hand feed it. pretty amazing the teeth that thing has.
Jon all the tanks look great, I only have one criticism to discuss with you, that would be you do not have enough tanks ....😂,....also would u be willing to come up on one of my live streams? 9 am Saturday mornings eastern, or Tuesdays at 6 pm eastern, this would be an honor and a dream for me to talk keeping fish with you ! Let me know, thank you for the video and your time!
Out standing place. I wish you get where you wna be with all those beautiful house for amazing souls. I'm currently facing a problem with ph. I check the tape water when I change the water it always shows around 7.1-7.4. But just after a few hours of storing or charging water the ph directly goes to 8.1-8.2. I took out everything of the tank. I washed the sponge filter so well with clean water. But still that 7.1 water next Dat reaches 8.1. Im so tired. Gna give up keeping betta cause IM doing everything i can but cant keep those fins intact. 😢 yah I tried almond leaves too. The ph 8.2 I mean whaaaat ?
Have you thought about or tried jungle val with the bichir/oscar tank. Theyre tough and grow big roots which can handle those tough fish and help with nitrates a bit
All those cube tanks I see, what do you use for heaters and filters? I’m not seeing any over the tank or sponge filters. Are you using all canister systems on them or do you have a custom made system for them?
I remember the video when you showed off the new betta system, it was cool. Did you two stop breeding and selling bettas? If yes, why? I’m glad you did this video.
You showed us what Carl likes to do when getting down and I image and worried, if he might fall into the tanks. It's sad but for the safety of Carl, I wouldn't let him stay in the fish room. I love and enjoyed the tour, give us an update when Lisa removes and reorganize her side. Oh I just remembered, how can I keep safe a cube tank without breaking apart, I hope companies can sale plastic frames for them. Is the new look but I just don't trust them.
The algae on your saltwater is probably from your phosphate be a little bit to high test your phosphate it should be anywhere from 0.03ppm to 0.08 ppm and maybe test your nitrate
I love that you named them after Harry Potter characters lol. We named one of our axolotls ‘draino Malfoy’ cause the day we got him we accidentally dumped him down the drain lol. Was surprised he lived lol.
Unrelated to this video but wondering about a product and hoping you and your fans might have input. Oase integrated heater filters, any good? I like the corner filter design, but images and videos it looks like cheap plastic. Also don't know if the heaters any good, but with the lower price point I'm guessing I'd be best replacing the heater with something more reliable.
Hello I am from Afghanistan I found your channel on TH-cam a few weeks ago. I am a beginner months ago I bought 30 gallon tank with guppies fish,molly fish and angel fish baby can I keep angelfish with guppies and molly and what temperature should I keep them how aften I should change the water. My tank don't have plants The shopkeep told me you can keep angel babies with them I have doubt about it. I would be very happy if you could help me out. And I saw some of your video its really helpful
The betta system being left idle is tragic. All the work, time, parts, order...reorders. Very sad. Carl needs to be a house cat, he's not cut out to guard the fish house.
Now I really feel small with my 75-gallon tank, but I enjoy it. Plus, I am 82 years young and do the best I can.
75 is a great size!
75 gallon is pretty much the perfect size
I’m 60 YO, and I’ll be setting up a 75 gallon in another month or so. If I am still enjoying it 22 years from now I’ll truly be blessed!
I have 5 cats....after one of them smashed through a lid and into a 55 at 2 am, then she came up on the other side under a different lid and was drowning when I got to her and snatched her out....I built canopies for every one of my tanks. the cats lay on top of them and they and my fish are safe .
fairly easy to build and they make the tanks look a lot nicer .
It's great to see all of your fish house. Thank you.
Woohoo! Thank you! Always lovely to see the gorgeous results of the love and care you guys have for your fish.
Love this! Love too the honesty. Fish tanks are WORK, & at their best, something always needs to be done in each one.

Enjoyed the tour. Glad you guys went over all the equipment.

Nice tour and if my wife sees the Wednesday tank, I know what is going to happen, she is obsessed with that show.

Whoo hoo! I've been hoping for a tour, thank you 😎 Looking forward to seeing Lisa's tank over the next 3 weeks 💕👍
Thank you for the tour!

My Ramshorn snails from you are so pretty and multiplying ! 😊
Been waiting for a tour 😁
The apisto's were hiding 🤦♀️ I totally forgot to mention them and the Congo Tetras that were also in the 125 planted tank with the angels
(Lisa)
@@KGTropicals Redo! I'd personally have loved to see the congos.
5:14 !!!Snails are life! Snails are love!!!!!
It’s amazing how much the fish house has grown since yall first got there!!! Looks amazing!!!
Hi I'm from England and I've been watching your videos for years.I have kept fish all my life and have picked up so much of your channel over the year. Beats trying to look thinks up in a library KERP IP THE GOOD WORK
Yes sis so beautiful ❤
Been missing this kind of video from you guys! Love it. Wouldn’t mind a close up on some of those tanks, they’re really interesting and fun to look at :)
I want to see Lisas tank today lol!
Oh Carl 😼😹 thank you so much for the tour and can't wait for Lisa's tank ... finally!!!
Thanks for the update on all the fish! ❤
I love your nano tanks I'd love to see more of them
Looks beautiful. Have you tried blueberry snails yet? Ordering a couple from Moonlight aquatics today. Am so excited to try a new type of snail 🐌 ❤
You both have some beautiful tanks i love the videos John and Lisa keep up all the great work on the tanks. Oh carl you are the man lol😂 just dont brake anymore lids
The Guppies 🥹
I love, love, love this video. I only have one negative. I couldn't see ANYTHING in the saltwater tank. It was so dark that I could barely see the outline of the rock structure. It really needed a light on it. I'm sorry. I don't mean to complain, but I'm just letting you know in case you're not aware of it. Love you guys.😊
Love ALL of the tanks! Missing the bettas! What exactly happened there?
Love seeing where my Ivory Mystery snails came from! See you tomorrow at Aquariums Unlimited😀
Hi Sheri,
Just a heads up that we'll be getting there between 12-12:30, most likely. Can't wait to meet you!
(Lisa)
Team KG tropical awesome video guys loved the update of the old Fish House not you guys do all the time so it was nice to see that. Keep up the great work love the videos. Did you notice every time you brought up Carl name and put the camera towards him, he looked the other way like it wasn’t him doing it❤
You need to hire a part-timer. I can't imagine how you keep up with fish, cats, and house chores ?
the tank you most didn't want to show...I love it the most.
Thank you for sharing!
Add a tang to the saltwater tank to deal with algae. The foxface also eats algae but a zebrasoma tang will also help.
I love all the guppies!
7:31 😮 quite the haul for them buggers.. I never got why they are called rabbit snails other than their little hop like movement. They look more like elephants to me.
Damn that yellow lab tank is insane, good job.
Potential Oscar names: Wilde, Mayer, Grouch, Madison, Isaac, and Hoya.
Great tour. Makes me a little jealous or envious.
You two have mastered the art of tank setups. My tank is a mess. There's no consistent theme, the fish don't compliment each other, the plants are so random, it's like a patchwork of a bunch of random stuff. Everything is healthy, grows great, and the tank is nice and clean. It's just not cohesive at all lol
Is he falling in these tanks when he breaks the lid? I feel like once in the water, and he would stop. Cats are so funny.
Thankyou so much for showing your aquariums they are beautiful ❤🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
Good see for a fish tank that looks like a fish tank and display fish tank.
this was a great tour
You should put some neo shrimp in the mystery tank 👍🏻
Can you show more about the betta system?? that thing looks wild!
Our cats were named Ranger and Gypsy! We still have Gypsy, but Ranger passed some years ago.
I love Carl 🤣🤣🤣 what an ass! He’s amazing 🤣🤣🤣
Did you literally fat shame a cat ??? Epic !!!! 😂
Yes I did and I will NOT apologize for it!!
I swear every time I see your Oscar tank it makes me want to get a 300 gallon aquarium to keep some aswell but I just don't have the space for it.
Thanks for the Fish House tour. (Gina)
I think u guys got a fish problem 😂 wow that's a lot of tanks.....I've got 8 tanks and it's a full time job 😅 .
The plants I order from you are still doing good.
Take a shot every time they say "Tank" lol 😂

If it ain't broke don't fix it. If your fish is happy and healthy you're obviously doing things right.
@@KGTropicals thanks!
Enjoyed watching!❤
oh so the gold severums ARE still in there. 2 anyway. they look a lot different from their baby selves so i wasn't sure. less gold/yellow in that lighting. was really glad you got them instead of the monster arowana. :]
Salt tank, maybe you should look into a U.V filter to help control the algae ?
Need some tangs for the saltwater tank
I've got the same issue with a cat ruining my lids! We have many cats but one just loves what we now fondlyc all "wild water" so always trying to find a way to get to it.
I need a fish house 💙

Thanks for the fish house tour! Carl is the equivalent of a bull in a china shop! But, more handsome 😊
Can give Carl a Dark Souls boss name.
Carl the Destroyer of Lids
Nice tour. I thought you were exaggerating about a thousand guppies but now I see you are not 👀👀
Great video 😊. John u put a lot of work on that beta rack system I guess it was time to move on

The algae on your saltwater is probably from your phosphate be a little bit to high test your phosphate it should be anywhere from 0.03ppm to 0.08 ppm and maybe test your nitrate
Not gonna lie, if I had the space I'd have just as many tanks running 😂😂 Not sure I'd have 8.68 million guppies, but still.
Carl is innocent!
I love that you named them after Harry Potter characters lol. We named one of our axolotls ‘draino Malfoy’ cause the day we got him we accidentally dumped him down the drain lol. Was surprised he lived lol.

Gotta name those oscars! Huckleberry fin (😉) perhaps?

If you get rid of some of those betta tanks id be interested in 5-10.
Don't even get started on tank lids lol broken and dirty is the norm anymore
Where are from bro ❤
What happened to all the discus????
i have hundreds of pink, white and red ramshorn snails in my 55 gallon. i give them away...
So you guys don't sell live fish anymore?
Change the cat’s name to Garfield or Heathcliff 😂
