the crabs are soooo cool
Agreed love them 🦀🦀
black worms are the chicken noodle soup of the fish world
lol
love it
sweet set up
beautiful fish
Great viewing! I’m a newbie in Melbourne and happy to learn from a local. 👍
Hopefully bump in to you at the expo in a couple of weeks 👍
I’m a melbournian too and how have I not heard of this expo yet!?
😱 october 15th and 16th, only 5 bucks a ticket. Search underwater pet expo on facebook or google
Blake is a LEGEND!!!!!
I love this fish room tour. I love seeing each fish and aquarium and all the different types you keep and how yo keep them. The crabs are super amazing!
Wow, such a fascinating tour! I am hoping to get some CPDs further down the track as I lost all of mine in a catastrophic tank leak a couple of years ago, which has taken me some time to get over. Also lost were a school of Chilli Rasboras. But I am hooked again! So planning, planning, planning … thank you for helping to enthuse me again.
8 foot tank looks awesome.. big rainbow group looks great love a update sometime.. great fish room, thanks for the videos
Thanks 👍
Great video Blake looking forward to your presentation at the show in a few weeks.
The 8 foot set up looks mint
I love what you've done with your fishroom!! The GBR's look amazing!❤ I wish you the best of luck in growing out your livestock! You're a legend, mate!!
I've been constantly hounded that you need to have axolotls at no more 18°C and you absolutely need a chiller on their setup (Reddit is partly to blame) I'm glad to see someone with more realistic solutions for their temperature requirements.
Great fish room, great channel!
Your fishroom is amazing! Wow, you have such a cool variety of fish and other aquatic creatures. Thanks so much for sharing!
Thanks 😄
Great video. Good tip with the fans on the axolotl tank my 4 year old daughter really wants one but I didn't want to get a chiller.
They work surprisingly well! Consistenly 4 or 5 deg cooler than the others
So cool!!!! I hope to one day have a fishroom half as decent as yours!!!
Thanks for the codes Blake. I am in the process of setting up a 6 x 2 x 2 so you have helped me alot 🙂🐟
Very good nice fish
love watching your vids Blake ... your passion for the hobby really comes through. Chicken Noodle Soup for fish 🤭
Hahaha thanks mate
awesome fishroom
Cheers Blake 👍 Xlent assortment of fish, plants & critters 🤪 Great chillax space 💋✨🌿🐟🦐🍂
Thanks Jen 😄
Great to see those Choprae in there. Just got back from a holiday in NZ and they were in just about every fish store and I was sad to hear they're so hard to find over here
Incredible Fishroom Sir. Great job. Thank you for sharing.👍👍👍👍👍👍
12:02 Blake you got some thick CPDs. They are not missing any meals. Apparently, I need to double down on feeding my colony.
Cheers 😄
GOOD STUFF
Cheers
Awesome tour Blake! It's always fun to see all the changes that happen and the 8 foot tank looks neat! happy to see the muchollichi rainbows and Dickfeldi Julis are doing great as well... personal bias to those picks lol.
Like chix noodle soup. Classic.
Awesome tour Blake.... Love the fresh water crabs, keep those videos coming mate.....
Great video Blake, it’s really interesting to see where some of my fish come from 👍
👌👌
John! hey hey haha, pls check your Facebook friend requests :)
Tanks lookin great
Your set up is amazing Blake. So many different things happening in that space! Always something new for me to learn. The 8ft is brilliant. If not for light, I would keep it that tanned. Will be interesting to me to see it with clear water. Great video mate, well presented 💪👍
Love to see how the fish room has grown since the last tour! Great work!😃
Let’s get more into the cacatuiedes
Thanks Blake, cool Room!🇦🇺❤️
Thanks Chelle 😄
Your fishroom is very awesome Blake!, always a treat to see the full tour, relished every min and still want more lol! Thanks mate🙂👍🏻
Thanks so much, glad you liked it
It will be interesting to see if you manage to breed the African Butterfly fish.
@GV Aquariums Australia - I was just thinking the same thing about the African butterfly fish 👍🏻
Once things get a bit more stable i will be concentrating a lot on them
@@pelhamsaquatics Yeah Jeff, I'll be staying tuned.
@@Gilsfishroom same here🙂👍🏻
Awesome video and amazing tour! I love your fish room! Great choice on the clown loaches they are my favorite!
I thoroughly enjoyed seeing your fish room. You have beautiful fish and tanks. What are you feeding your African Butterfly Fish?? There was a shortage of crickets in my area and I didn't know what else to try. I was also feeding bloodworms, but once they started to sink the butterflies don't eat them. I need more food options. Any suggestions? Thanks.
Love your tour and really love and depend on your accurate information. I’m waiting for a new to me species to arrive this week…rainbow shiners (aka rainbow dace) they are a minnow indigenous to North America so I’m excited to get to know them. Check them out if you don’t know them.
Ace tour mate although please don't put chicken noodle soup and blackworms in the same sentence again please haha...
The rooms really come together since building the whole thing hey.
Great video. Fantastic variety of fish. Do you have different water perameters for each species or are they in the same water
Yes i buffer the tanganyikan tanks and place holey rock in any tabks that prefer hard water. My tap water is soft so amazonian fish live fine in that
Great video, thats such an awesome fishroom. I love those swordtails - where did you source those from, or do you sell anywhere in Melbourne?
Hey Connor, yeah I take my stuff to fastway in west footscray. Shouldnt be too hard to arrange some for you 😄
@BlakesAquatics Great shop! Good to know. I'm looking to change up some of my community fish in the next couple of months, and keen to get a great male sword. Your tricolour kois are really cool.

Amazing fish room Blake so cool.
What is your stance on aquarium heaters? As we are coming into summer do you feel I still need it on?
I live in Sydney.
I have ember tetras and a clean up crew.
You can definitely turn it off, i used to just wait until overnight tenos stayed above 14 or 15 deg. Nowadays I heat the room instead
Hi again Blake I whoever might be able to answer this for me. I have another question about my decor. I have 4 eight gallant aquariums & my question is can I use some cheap china rubbish toys (because they have sentimental value to me) & also because there’s no paint chipping off. It’s just the colour of the plastic.
My question is regarding this plastic is it in notes like when people glue stuff to rocks or wood such as plants with superglue?
Another question would be because there are these little hollow segments at the bottoms of these toys does that increase the healthy bacteria considering I have dirted cold water 💦 tanks?
Hey mate what diet do you have your saratoga on? Been feeding mine hikari floating sticks, blood worms and frozen aquaone community food. Thinking about trying shrimp and fish fillets to grow him out more. His only just reaching the 30cm mark now.
My emerald Rasboras breed well in a mop.
Interesting thanks ill have a go
Great content 👌
Would you get into salt water tanks?
I kept saltwater for 3 years but for me its a lot of work for little to no reward. I like watching fish breed and I like plants
What aquariums are those rimless ones with the black silicone?
How are you going Blake? I decided on 4 eight gallon dirted tanks. I am relying on the advice from Father Fish. I hope to hear from you Blake because I would be interested in future purchases from yourself of fish & potentially I could separate a tank for these cute little crabs 🦀. I have a few questions for you or anyone that is versed in being able to answer them.
Are the Darwin little freshwater crabs 🦀 you mentioned able to handle cold water 💦 because I also decided on cold water 💦 tanks only. Is a piece of wood 🪵 enough for the crab 🦀 good enough to get on to get out of water 💦 plus how many little of those Darwin crabs that you mentioned can I have in an 8 gallon tank?
Do you have any dirted tanks Blake?
Hi Blake
I've just got a dozen goyder river rainbows in my tank and noticed yours have white lumps on their lips and so do 2 of mine. Do you have any idea what that is on yours and possibly mine. What do you do to treat or just leave them be?
Its just from fighting and bumping into things. If it gets worse and starts to look like cotton its a bacterial infection and needs treatment otherwise its normal
@Blake's Aquatics ah awesome thankyou :) yeah just looks like small bump on the lip fleshy not fungus or bacteria like.
Why have you fallen out with the peppermints?!
Just kinda boring, only ever see a tail sticking out of the cave 🤷♂️
Can you make more videos of your leichardti?
Not sure what more i could say about it but ill have a think
Hi mate I have a small fish business in Canberra and was wondering if I may do a bulk order of cpd’s off you if possible .
Hey Lee, all of my CPDs are currentlu being sold to a local store. I dont have any exclusivity with them but it is easier than shipping, i can guarantee their arrival and they look after me.
@@BlakesAquatics
Thank you if you decide to change your mind I’d be-able to do a monthly order .
@@leetownsend1016 thanks mate, would love to visit the shop one day. All the best with it
@@BlakesAquatics more than welcome , not a large shop but it satisfies me .
