Using the hang on breeder boxes has upped my fry survival by 50% or more. 😊 I do similar to what you do. I put a ready to drop female in the box with lots of Hornwort. I let the female drop in the box and then put her back into the main tank. I leave the fry in for 2 weeks. By then they're big enough and strong enough to evade the adults. At 2 weeks old I put them into the main tank and put a new female that's ready to drop into the box. Works really really well. 😊
I am using the same breeder box I am going to add a sponge next time. I lost 7 endler fry that got through to the main tank. The bigger grates help and the last 5 are to big to get out now. Thanks for that tip!
BTW, shrimp climbing to the top of the tank could be a sign of water quality issue. I have seen this once in my tank and it turned out the filter was clogged without me knowing. The adult shrimp are usually the first to react that way.
you got a fryfest going on!! The Japan blues I got from you are pigs and always look like they are gonna drop any day..😂I found about 12 fry so far. They probably are eating some so I will keep an eye on them.
Looking forward to hearing your progress on the CPD breeding project. I've been trying to breed CPDs with mixed success. Sometimes I can get a dozen eggs every 3 or 4 days, sometimes nothing.
Loving the long fin mountain Minnows! Hope they will be available on the website soon! If you were close by I’d trade some of my rice fish or blue Japanese endlers I have a mini breeding colony
How long do you find it takes for CPD eggs to hatch out? Just wanting to know how long to leave them before pulling the mops and not lose fry to the parents? Thanks!!
nice that u have fry from Roebuck Reds, mine are super fat n should have some soon!! Did u see the new rare rice fish n rainbows n gobies Dan got in?? Most are out of quarantine or getting ready too
Been living vicariously through your fish room since I found this channel a few days ago! I'm enthralled. If you had to choose 1-2 small (10-20 gallon) breeding projects - species or strains - for a relatively new hobbiest, what would you suggest?
do your shrimps breed in the tank with the panda guppy? I was hoping to put my cherry shrimp together with my guppies. Just wondering if it is possible to get a stable shrimp population alongside guppies. Currently still in the midst of dry starting my 10 gallon with Monte Carlo carpet and I have 2 cherry shrimp adults + about 20ish 3 weeks old cherry shrimplets in a 1 gallon that I hope to migrate over once the tank is ready
The cull shrimp in that tank are doing well, I'm sure a lot of the shrimplets get eaten. The population is slowly growing. I would just make sure there are plenty of hiding places for the shrimp and the guppies are well fed.
With your Panda guppies do you ever see smaller drops? I have a trio that are a bit younger and they randomly dropped 2 fry overnight, but that was it. Love the channel!
I've only had them for a month or so, I haven't seen any smaller drops yet. I do have very large females right now, I'm sure the smaller females growing up now will start out with small drops
There are many that I haven't changed since they were set up over a year ago. What's nice about them is a lot of the waste builds up behind them for easy clean up
Niiiice... haven’t finished watching the video yet, but do you have a new “landscape “ tank? (Sideways)... the one with the tree has grown on me btw...well done Man.
A lot of time when I put a female in the breeder box she's so stressed about trying to get back into her tank that I actually put some paper or news paper or a piece of cardboard between the box and the tank and they usually calm right down. Just something I've trial and error tested over the last several years. Completely breaking the line of sight seems to do the trick.
My male went out of the cave when I turned the light off and I shind flash light on the eggs and there was a assassin snail on them. When I woke up they were all gone.
search for "Yume koi and Gardens" on facebook. The page owner just imported 5 types of medaka fish. ($1 - $30/each). The store is located in Orange County, California. Hope you could get more types of medaka fish to breed. Enjoy
Quickly becoming one of my favorite content creators!
Thank you!
9 day old guppy fry already showing color!

👍 I love your updates. I look forward to seeing what's happening in your FishRoom.🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟😄
I got my timers they work great lol. Thanks fish boy

Awesome timing on this one. I just purchased my first CPDs last night. They should be here around the middle of next week!
I have had good luck with bath poufs from the dollar tree instead of moss for cpd and other egg scatterers.
Cannot wait to see the hatch out of the CPD's. I hope it goes well and you sell some.

Looks like I'll have to do some tests!
Found my first 4 daisy's rice fish today. Cheers man. Video looks great!
really nice dude, you have so many tanks. danios are my favourite fish.
Your videos are so informative so glad I subscribed to your channel
Great setup. How big are those tanks? Do you have any video of your filtration system?
you got a fryfest going on!! The Japan blues I got from you are pigs and always look like they are gonna drop any day..😂I found about 12 fry so far. They probably are eating some so I will keep an eye on them.
Glad they are doing well for you!
I Love your videos. Always interesting and informative!!
I just got 4 breeder boxes few months ago pretty good from amazon

What are you feeding the adults and are you pulling the eggs?
Nice aquarium
you got such a awesome fish room
Thank you!
Just curious, what shelving unit do you use. Thank you.
awesome fish studio !!!!!

Fish Boy daisy blue! Wish I could get some of the Youkihi Orange one
Thank you for the video
i noticed that yr plants all look healthy and green. do u add nutrients for them?
Not very often, once a week if I remember
Nice dude lots of fry
how often do you do watter changes, and do you use RO water or tap?
Automatic water change every other day, tap water
@@fishboy1415 oh god, about how much do you change, like 15%
@@fishboy1415 looks like imma be lugging alot of buckets to keep up
Great share 🏆
Do you have a video on the de-worming process?
There's one video on treating camallanus red worm. I mostly use API General Cure or Paracleanse unless I see something like camallanus red worm
Thank you
How long do you find it takes for CPD eggs to hatch out? Just wanting to know how long to leave them before pulling the mops and not lose fry to the parents? Thanks!!
Only a couple days for me
nice that u have fry from Roebuck Reds, mine are super fat n should have some soon!! Did u see the new rare rice fish n rainbows n gobies Dan got in?? Most are out of quarantine or getting ready too
What kind of rice fish?
Yes I'm waiting for them to be listed!
@@peteriverson4682 They should be on dan's get gills page Friday, or you can watch his tour video, I have never heard of them

Guppies are always fun and a great beginner breeding project. They can be done in a 10 or 20. Thanks for watching
Great job brother 👍

@@fishboy1415 This is exactly what I want a slow and stable shrimp population since I am not really breeding for profit. Thanks for answering.
So many fry!
What black airline tubing do you use?
All different brands, don't really have a favorite

How often do you clean your mat filters?
There are many that I haven't changed since they were set up over a year ago. What's nice about them is a lot of the waste builds up behind them for easy clean up
whatt substrate do u use in ur guppy tanks?
Eco complete
I thought they made dividers for some breeder box so the female cant get to the fry? May have been a DIY project I saw.
They do come with dividers, I just don't use them
@@fishboy1415 do you find them less useful? Hoping to set up a fish room soon. Trying to learn as much as possible beforehand.
I like to give the female as much room as possible to not stress her out
What do you feed your CPDs?
Flake, bug bites, live baby brine
Very nice
Niiiice... haven’t finished watching the video yet, but do you have a new “landscape “ tank? (Sideways)... the one with the tree has grown on me btw...well done Man.
none yet, maybe on the new rack coming when the next $1 per gallon sale is
I'm interested in the Japan blue gold double soard tail
Nice

good tip thanks!
New video yay!
Have you found that assassin snails eat your pleco eggs?
Haven't experienced that yet
My male went out of the cave when I turned the light off and I shind flash light on the eggs and there was a assassin snail on them. When I woke up they were all gone.
My celestial Pearl Danios are breeding over my sponge filter
Subbed!
It would be cool if you could breed a guppy with a moley but it is not possible 😕
It is possible, the fry are just sterile
As usual 👍
