  • In this video I give a complete fish room tour of all my tanks. I focus mainly on the current progress of breeding my rare Corydoras and exotic plecos, and what fish you can expect to be available this Spring. I also show some new fish for the first time, and discuss adding three of the new Aqueon 60 Breeder fish tanks.

      I Love my corydoras eques. I’m still having trouble getting them to breed…the males are will and ready but the females are quite stubborn. My favorite Plecos are my L046 (still a bit young to spawn) and my L236 standard and super whites. Of the standards, I currently have 1 male with fry in a breeder box and another male on eggs in the tank 😍. The super whites are quickly approaching breeding size 🤞

    Plecos are currently popular. I prefer tiny pleco. Because my tank is a small nano tank. So Parotocinclus fits it and looks like pleco but is not pleco, however it's still pleco as pet because of the similarity of the characteristics. So I decided to have it. Now I love it. I hope Paratocinclus will be a new popular genre equivalent to Pleco.

    Hi Tom! thanks for another fantastic video. You must spend several days cleaning those tanks before a video shoot, because they are immaculate! --so envious. I was watching in earnest when I noticed that there was one quick shot of a tank that I think had tiger barbs in it. It was quick but I think I saw a Platinum Green Tiger in there. Did my eyes deceive me? I just spawned my Platinums this week and I'll be showing off the fry setup in this week's coming Live-Stream. I really love those Barbatus as well. I would love to get some as soon as it gets easier to get them across the border. Glad to see the Leopard Frogs doing so well. I hit speed bump is all and what's left of my colony ended up as all males. So now I'm waiting for the next group to mature which will likely be next year. Glad to see you're keeping it real.

    Hi Tom, I have just moved 250+ eating fry of CW009, from 3 females, to their first tanks. Have had 90% hatch rate with 100% RO with 1/2 a tsp of Sera re-mineralising salt per 10 liter bucket. Adding 2 alder cones in a 1.5 liter tub with fair airation. Changing 90% every day and adding a new cone every time. YT channel Mischief and Fins said he could not use MB in RO water for some reason and I've killed 400+ parallelus eggs before I started doing as per above (instead of MB). Hard water seems to work with MB but not RO.

    • @TMAquatics
      @TMAquatics  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yep, no problem. Pencilfish are peaceful fish. Just buy as many as possible. In smaller groups, the males can become territorial and aggressive towards sub dominate males, and can aggressively court the females. For breeding, I recommend a single pair or trio with lots of plants and hiding places.

    Love your fish room and fish. Question I have two stores that take all of the super red bristle nose short and long fin I can make and ask for more,I love leopard frog plecos and one store wants me to get into them. My question is do you believe I could overwhelm there ability to sell them? I have always figured that most people will spend the money for a bristle nose and not sure if enough would be willing to spend the money for a leopard frog? I don’t want to ship and sold directly to people ( still do for old customers) but have been turned of by a few,its just easier to walk into stores with bag and walk out.

    • @TMAquatics
      @TMAquatics  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Good question. Depends on the market and how they price the L134. One of my LFS gets them from time to time. They can sit there for quite a while before he sells them. He prices them fair at around $80/ea. The bushynose appeals to the masses since most people will gladly spend $10 on a fish. Most people are not willing to spend $80 on an L134 except for pleco enthusiasts. If I didn’t ship, I wouldn’t be breeding them. If my intent was to supply the LFS, I’d focus on all types of bushynose plecos, panda Corydoras, cherry shrimp, cherry barbs and some tetras.
