You are so adorable fin (ha ha fun) to watch and informative. My lemon blue eye plecs spawning 2x in a row. Removing cave now. Love fish and breeding them all.
Removing the cave didn’t work for my bristle nose plecos. They were all so determined to overrun me and the poop that they can generate when there’s 100s of babies in a 55 gallon tank! Thankfully I found homes for all of them I’m done with Fish! My favorite were importanted guppies but they are just too delicate. The city changed our water one spring and I didn’t know it and I ended up losing hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of dollars worth of Thailand beautiful patriot guppies! Which is why I put all my pleecos in one tank they’re the only thing that survived along with my few panda Corey’s but those baby Pleco‘s didn’t let my Coreys live very long
You’ve been a huge inspiration on me creating my fish room and trying to sell for profit here in the us. Keep going I hopefully want to eventually have my own warehouse
Having a pearl weed carpet makes it easier for egg scattering fish . The thick vegetation at the bottom of the tank safeguards the eggs. Worked so well for me while trying to breed Ember Tetra 😄
mainaquarist ... My neighbour has black mollies which breed like crazy. She asked me if I wanted some to add to my aquariums. I politely declined as I heard that they are territorial and aggressive. I think she uses them as "food" for her outdoors pond.
My grandmother bred some fishes. Local pet stores would come get them sometimes. One thing I did with my livebearers was to make hybrids mostly from male guppies.
Endler's also behave differently from your regular old guppy. They may eat the first fry or 2 then after that, they'll leave the surviving babies alone. I notice when I turn off the lights, all of my Endlers literally go to sleep on the gravel or on the plants like they're in bed! Lol. There are lots of Endler/guppy crosses out there. You have to basically trust the breeder when they say it's pure Endler or not.
I love your breeding methods. I ended up with lots of Celestial Pearl Danio babies, and the only thing I did was remove the betta that was living with them! He must have been eating ask the eggs 🤣
Following you has been a real joy! Moses and I have been breeding Guppy's for over half a century and I still love them. Zebra's were the first egg layer's I had bred quite by accident. You remind me of me as a young man and I hope one day you'll get to legally get too catch and raise, breed, and sell some. When I get better and hit the lottery, I would love to bring you too the USA for a vacation and meet you in person. I would also like too take a trip to Australia where my grandparents were from. Have a great day!
Platy Breeding Tip - From personal experience, platy fry have a habit of settling to the bottom after birth, then occasionally racing to the surface from time to time and back down. This action seems to entice the adults to eat them in a natural instinct. To raise more Platy, you need top to bottom plant coverage over at least a portion of the tank. I use dense guppy grass floating over java moss. The females do a good job of burrowing in the dense foliage for birth, and more fry survive if they can navigate all levels of the tank under cover of plants.
I used to breed platys. I got bored, I have a 50 litre tank [no idea what it is in gallons] and when I had a pregnant platy or 2, I either put them in a smaller tank which I am currently breedings guppies in then taking the platy out of and let the babies grow in a tank on their own. But breeding boxes work just as well 👍
WHITE CLOUD MOUNTAIN MINNOWS ... mine have started to breed like crazy. I certainly didn't expect to see THAT after having them for 2.5 years... Your videos are a great source of inspiration - thank you.
Bro can you please do a Dumbo ear betta fish breeding video because there are no video on TH-cam about breading Dumbo ear betta fish . They are difficult to breeding ? Please brother try to make a video on it
A year ago i bought 7 guppies ( 2 males) and 8 platties (3 males) for an aquarium. Got bored and moved them to an empty outdoor pond, now I have literally thousands 😭.
In my experience guppies usually birth 30-40 fries, and platties usually about 20-25. I have plants, rocks, and algae in the pond so the babies can hide. I feed them only occasionally with flakes (like once a week), they must be eating the algae and it's more than enough food that they keep breeding.
@@BobaT0 definitely, from those several pairs. Inbreeding can happen to in the wild. I haven't yet to find one with any physical deformities like bent spine etc. From what i know, fancy guppies are the result of tons on inbreeding, so maybe there's fewer inbreeding in my pond and the genetics become more natural (they're less colorful, and the tails aren't as big and wide as the OGs). Maybe guppies and endlers come from the same species but idk
I bought 10 platys about a year ago. Now I have like 60-80 and I love being able to sell them at a petstore. 😅 I don't even know who's kids these are but they're cute.
Stop using the word " Like " your a smart lad and it is the biggest killer to an intelligent video !!! Keep up the good work but take that advice to the bank in all areas of your life.
Like that word is in everyone’s vocabulary like now. Especially like younger people. If they read a book and every other word was like they’d throw it down. Like it’s not necessary. Like stop it. I totally agree. Irritating because I know the people are smart! I’ve stopped watching so many you tube vids because it’s annoying. .
Please count all the times his says " like." I think the dude is awesome and your are the first nancy to complain about vocab. Lol, say man picking on a kid whom brings joy and mental health all over the world. Grungie guy giving advice. Freak 5000
Imagine telling a young lad not to use a filler word & improve his vocabulary & for some reason relating it to his intelligence but you still don’t know the differences between “your” and “you’re “ while also not knowing how to use them properly crazy huh ?.. :)
Loving the fact that you were shooting the video in your new fish room....until you mentioned it I thought you were dropping an Easter egg. Keep on hustling mate, appreciate the struggle that comes with change...but appreciate the benefits that spawn from the adversity that entropy creates!!! .
I'd never kept platy's before, but got 2 male and 1 female green lantern ones in January, and by February I had 30 babies. I wasn't gonna keep breeding them, but then I was gifted a like, blue and pink platy female and a splotchy Mikey Mouse platy male, they bred, and the babies are SO cute, they've got such great colour and black little stripes and dots. I love seeing the combos that can come out of them.
I bought a pair of albino platinum guppies and they're about 6 months + old now and the female never gave birth, yeah she has that black spot behind her belly but her belly never really grew bigger, Any tips?
Oddly enough, I have a couple of L183 /bristlenose (it's a couple alright) - and they are mature.. and haven't seen any wigglers.. (although they do have a couple of hiding places at their disposal).. Oh Well.. And the Guppy/Endler thing.. What I bought were probably hybrids (started with 10, 6 month ago - now there are hundreds !) So now I have a bunch of Guppy that look like endlers.. and Endlers that look like guppys ! It's fun - some of those fish are absolutely amazing in color and size (some of the males are like 1 cm long and have a 3 cm long tail and a 1 cm dorsal fin - and when they do the "dance" they are just amazing to watch !)
In addition to your list, I've also "accidentally" bred LOTS of electric blue acaras. The parents just need a tank where the fry (mostly) don't get eaten and they do the rest.
I need advice got a 10 gallon tank set up.heater and sponge filter I have a mesh breeder net wanna k own what mo the they spawn I have mixed danios I wanna get .lre of them
Have you noticed any issues with inbreeding, or do anything in particular to get parents from difference other breeders to encourage genetic diversity?
I have the same platies in my 20 gallon tank two males and five females and I’ve had them in there for four months now and I still have no babies nothing in my water is good my perimeter is good my pH is good my money is good my nitrates good in my nitrates good I feed them once a day and there’s not too much decoration I saw one fry In there for about a week and a half and now I have not seen it for the last five days and no more
I think guppies are a bad beginner fish precisely because of how fast they breed. Suddenly you will have 300 fish in a 10 gallon tank with nowhere to unload them since most(all) stores and chains dont want them. Aaand then you get waterquality issues because of the heavy load and we all know what that leads to. It is definitly not a fish for children in my opinion. What they get is a crashcourse in aggresive breeding and then sickness and death a couple of months later because of an overstocked tank.
@Anonymous even in completely empty tanks alot of babies survive so no. And thats no way to introduce the aquarium hobby anyways even if that WAS true 😂 Here little Cindy heres an empty tank with some really cute fish, we HATE plants! Look now the daddyfish keep chasing the mommyfish and she cant get away or hide anywhere? Thats how babies are made! No little Cindy we wont have the babies because mommy and daddyfish will eat those! Yaaaay Isnt aquariums fun Cindy?
So I have been breeding my bristlenose plecos quite reliably, what would you recommend as the next pleco to try and breed, not something too difficult but more difficult than bristlenose plecs.?
Hey Nick, hope you are well! The company that I work for has a potential business opportunity for you, and we are trying to contact you via email. I just wanted to confirm if you had the chance to check the email. The subject was :Business Opportunity: Keeping Fish Simple x Jellysmack". Let me know if anything. Thanks :)
Looking for some advice. Is it foolish to add 22 new fish into my 75G tank? They're mostly nano-fish (Rasbora Kubotai and Celestial Pearl Danios) and a few cory cats. Tank only have a few fish in it at the moment, as well as some plants.
This guy makes more money on TH-cam, than the fishes themselves.
Lol

In florida unwanted fish are released into the wild. Breed responsibly.

Something interesting is that the OG guppies were fancy guppies, but over time, the population looks more like endlers, idk how.

Hey from Arkansas United States I hope you’ve had a good day I love your work thank you for all the informative videos

Your channel is bad ass! Love it! Greetings from America!😃❤️
I love that "you bred" guppies. 😅 But you just get better and better! Congratulations!
What do I do with all these unwanted fish?
Guppies are thrown in our sewers....they eat the 🦟..but dragonfly nymphs kill them off
Day 6 of asking where in Brisbane your new shop is located, cause I REALLY want to work/shop there!!!❤️
Can endlers breed with guppies?
They can, but they would be a hybrid so not fertile
@@shackleDev idk tiger endlers are a guppy/endlers hybrid and I'm almost certain that they breed perfectly fine
In addition to your list, I've also "accidentally" bred LOTS of electric blue acaras. The parents just need a tank where the fry (mostly) don't get eaten and they do the rest.
First :p
I wanna know what month they breed in I have glo,zebra,and lepard danios wanna mix em up
Can I breed Bristlenose and Guppies in the same tank?
how about RCS, its easy to breed as long no predator like Guppy or platy/molly
i have it on my tank. life with neon tetra. :)
I need advice got a 10 gallon tank set up.heater and sponge filter I have a mesh breeder net wanna k own what mo the they spawn I have mixed danios I wanna get .lre of them
Bro video was awesome but you forgot MOLLIES my first fish which I bred
Question , i have my first Spawn from my apistogramma viejita should i leavy IT or take egg out ?
Mollies are another live bearer to breed also. Dalmatian are a lot longer gestation, but easy to breed.
We have two Dalmatian mollies, they're lovely 😍
I think Mollies and Sword-bearers are just as easy as Platies and Guppies.
Have you noticed any issues with inbreeding, or do anything in particular to get parents from difference other breeders to encourage genetic diversity?
Harlequin rasboras are a good choice too. They’ve been in the hobby for so long they’re practically indestructible
Harlequins are a pain in the ass to breed.
Hey, Nick any place to contact you to ask a few questions?
hi im breeding dicus at the moment do you think i can breed so vampire plecos in the tanks as well or some other fish to maximise tank space .....
Which fish is fairly easy to upkeep and Is desirable?
I wish my guppies ate their babies! I know that sounds bad, but pop control please!
Idk i think sword tails are more easy to breed then guppys
Guppies, lots an lots of guppies. Like 🐇 if you feed them well, the parents will leave the babies alone.
White cloud mountain minnows are easy to breed to
And yet my guppies breed slowly
So will endlers breed with standard guppies?
Are there any problems with inbreeding?
I have the same platies in my 20 gallon tank two males and five females and I’ve had them in there for four months now and I still have no babies nothing in my water is good my perimeter is good my pH is good my money is good my nitrates good in my nitrates good I feed them once a day and there’s not too much decoration I saw one fry In there for about a week and a half and now I have not seen it for the last five days and no more
Baby fish are so cute!
My Molly gave birth a month ago and then 2 days ago. Can I put them together in the same tank?
Why do my guppies keep jumping out of the aquarium though? :(
Angelfish easy to breed....
Idk what to do my one of my fish had babies I have two rainbow fish and two giant danios I wasn’t planning on breading them

How many guppys can i keep in a 100litre tank and how often to do a water change
“I bred them in a styrofoam box” YO
So true :) With guppies actually the question is: how to stop them to breed (spoiler alert: you can't :P)
White clouds have been non stop since I bought them.
hey is there a special kind of rope or yarn to use in a fish tanks? & is jute twine safe to use? thank you
How do you advertize the fish that you have on sale?
The REAL 28 days later ... ;)
Hi there
Goldfish and angelfish have a good day
hey my Betta male is not making a bubble nest at all when I try to breed him, what should I do?
They are not cheap here , about 25 dollars each
I got 2 brisltnos but both of them are females
Give us an update for the baby bettas and thier food
Thank you so much for your videos!
