      The gold clawed fiddler crabs you got I did a little research on and it turns out they are actually a brackish crab. The article said that they are mistakenly sold by pet stores as freshwater. It said that keeping them in freshwater instead of brackish water can shorten their life span.

    I have tanks of Rainbow Shiners that I have bred this past year. They're SO fun, but I do it very differently. My pit nest is actually a dish filled with river stones that I harvest every 30 minutes throughout the day when they are actively spawning. Works like a dream. Good luck, they are an amazing species!

    Even though this video is 2 yrs old, I just bought 12 R Shiners for
    66$ online through a form, I seen his videos on how he raises
    them reliable source, & I kinda figured they'd be a little pricey
    I liked what I seen & we keep in touch through the form & email.
    I'm thinking of raising them for my fish store so they can get
    others in raising them, that will help the fish & make some $
    to make this happen the conditions has to be met & they delv.
    If any 1 knows about them being a prolific breeder talk to me
    I've been watching videos about the breed & any help I can get
    would be a blessing, from what I've seen & heard about them
    they are some awesome fish to enjoy in the tank, I love that.

    @darterkeeper3285 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Nice but we actually have a lot of natives that rival tropicals in coloration, you should set up a native aquarium with species local to your area (I'm fairly certain all you need is a fishing license in tx if that's where you reside ) if you're curious about what species are in your area you can use fish map dot org, all you have to do is type in your zip then it'll give you a list of all the watershed in your area click on one (if you have more than one by chance ) and it will give you a list of all the species found in your watershed

    I really liked the video idea and had considered subscribing but was disappointed by the end of the video because you never showed what this video promised, that is the breeding rainbow shiners for profit. I thought this video was going to show you actually breeding them and selling them but instead it was just a fluff video showing more setup and not breeding. I watched until the end only to be disappointed that what I came here for wasn't actually here.

      @@christopher_scott I know it is a long process. But in my opinion, something like finalizing breeding rainbow shiners for profit, would have made me realize initially that this was not a video about breeding them, but rather a video finalizing everything before breeding them. As I clicked on the video to see how you breed them, I was disappointed when I never saw how you breed them and I think could have been cleared up with a title slightly more true to the video. It is less search friendly, maybe but it is a lot more true and wouldn't leave the viewer disappointed for not getting whaat they came for.
      If you do end up spawning them, I will be interested in the true breeding rainbow shiners video.
