    Love the down stream feeding effect + how the white Clouds "taught" the shiners to eat. Perfect companions!

    You probably have no idea how genuinely happy it makes me to see Mr. bulldog! And I’m so happy to see him rearranging things and making himself a little cave. That just adds the perfect finishing touch to the spectacular underwater world! The new fish are really pretty, but for me the main event was getting to see Mr. bulldog! And I’m really hoping that those tiny little babies make it! Thank you for always putting together such a beautiful and entertaining videos!❤

    Welcome back , Mr. Bulldog. Always quite the character. 😄
    Also, those colours on the Rainbow Shiners! Their bodyshape made me think of trout. Mini trout, in this case.
    Congratulations with the "accidental" Minnow fry. 😍👍

      Welcome back! He changed so many aquariums and is still alive; my favourite fish. Rainbows shiners are amazing fish; easy to take care of with beautiful colours and they prefer cooler water so no heater is required. Cheers Frank

      @@IMaqua Quick question I just thought of; where and how do you keep your fish before you introduce them into your aquariums? I think I saw some isolation tanks before, but now I'm not so sure.

    • @IMaqua
      @IMaqua  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Usually a bare bottom 40L aquarium with a heather and a filter is enough. I use transparent plastic containers. I always quarantine all the new fish I get; better safe than sorry.

    • @IMaqua
      @IMaqua  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I am using Filmora because I started with it from day 1. Its OKayish. Maybe I would like to change the editing software but I got so used to this one that and it took me weeks and months (years) to get used to all the features and everything. If I had to use another one that would take too much time (new UI). I am self taught filmmaker and still consider myself amateur. I would recommend Sigma 16mm because it has two great features. It is incredibly sharp and it is wide lens. With 35mm lens you won't be able to put all the aquarium into frame and you when you do put it you basically need to go 10 meters away haha. If you zoom that into post production you won't be able to see finer details. With my lens for smaller tanks I am usually 50-80cms away from my aquariums and still able to fit all the aquarium into the frame.
