  • Hey guys!
    This is a video of the natural-style aquarium I created for a batch of lovely Zebra Danios a while back. I talk about the fish, plants and methods used to put this display together, and I hope it may inspire you to keep these wonderful fish!

    the danios sure seem happy, I love when people try to imitate where they live naturally

    Never has the Zebra Danio been honored in such fashion. What a time we are living in.

    Only downside to this video is the fact that it had to end, hope to see more like this❤😂

    I've always enjoyed your videos and STILL looking forward to your book , and I appreciate all of the time you have been spending creating your style of informative videos . Freshwater fishkeeping to me is the World's best hobby and I know along the way you're going to have inspired many people who want to do it the Biotopia way. 🍁

    Great biotope, hoping you can do the Brazilian highlands one.Maybe with house plants overhanging.
    Looking forward to the book.

    Incredible biotope scape and well shot and informative video you produced Tai.
    Can we swap zebra danio tanks, as yours is far better 🤣
    Thanks for including their importance to research, it’s critical people understand the good they do and don’t just see the use of these fish in science as a negative. Also thanks for shouting my channel out, really nice of you!

    Zebra Danios are my favourite fish. They resonate with me for some reason i cannot pinpoint. I did have them as a child so maybe thats part of it. ❤

    In eastern India, I collect them from rice paddies but the use of pesticides is quite disruptive for these fish. They are often found occurring sympatrically with Esomus danricus. Nice video

    • @biotopia5319
      @biotopia5319  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you for your comment and insights! That's interesting to learn! It must be so wonderful to find them in the wild, despite the pesticides...would you have any photos of their habitats by any chance?

    I love these small "simple" fish. That's cool aquascape, I'd have been concerned they'd want a calmer hiding spot but it's awesome anyway. Love the bedrock style, I once did something a little similar with granite stones glued along the bottom but the flat stones is so awesome, i guess they nicely algaed over. I'm thinking of keeping zebrafish again but they'd have to go in my whitecloud set up which i've been running for like a decade now and feels like a betrayal to change it at this stage lol

    Cheers from my fish room Channel in Chicago, where I am a subscriber to yours! So cool! Did you consider using any inverts in this biotope? Or is it truly "species only?"

    • @biotopia5319
      @biotopia5319  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you Stefan! Well I admit I didn't even think about inverts...I guess if you found some habitat correct ones they could be included! Most of my tanks are fully of wild-colour cherry shrimp anyway😅

      @@biotopia5319 makes sense. Another cool appropriate fish would be certain species of goby.

    Would small captive bred fish prefer a biotope or just a jungle tank?

    • @biotopia5319
      @biotopia5319  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      that's a great question, I think that any tank where they have plenty of cover and the water parameters and tankmates are appropriate would be fine :) Sometimes though, even captive bred fish look better in a more natural-style display

      I'm using a Rode Podcaster mic, I don't know how much more 'real' you want. When I had no mic, people complained, when I had OK mics, people complained, now I have a great mic, people complain. Should I start shouting at the mic? 😅

      I am glad you saw my comment. And my apologies if it came across as not so polite. Am I the only one here thinking there can be some huge improvement to the sound? It sounds low quality and metalic. As opposed to warm. Maybe it is not the micro Phone but your garage sound (!!!). Anyway I am no expert.... maybe i am also the only one thinking this ? I feel like your scapes and next level incredible and you there is so much we can all Learn from you....
