When I catch bristlenose fry, I lay the net down with pleco wafers in it. Walk away for 30 minutes. They find their way into the net.
I breed hillstream loaches they spawn for me about almost every evening the biggest advice I can give is have a gravel substrate I use to keep them one sand as well but as soon as I made that change I triggered them to spawn occasionally I like to add spurlina in the water as well that can trigger them to
What kind of gravel did you use?
I enjoy seeing your progress. It’s encouraging to see an intelligent young man step off and be self employed! Congratulations
May I suggest that you invest in a black curtain to hang behind your self when videoing a tank? This will lill distracting reflections and showcase your beautiful fish better!
Damn! At least it wasn’t your fault about the royal whiptails. Glad to hear your success with the peppermints and cpd’s. I’m sure Next batch of whiptails will be a success, and keep up the amazing work Nick! Good luck with the Hillstream Loaches too! Have a great day! 👍
Only just seen your video so don't know how you got on with breeding whiptails but the male normally stays over the eggs about 2 weeks fanning oxygen on them. Once they hatch the fry just lie about not eating and die after about 3-5 days. The only ones I found (out of about 240 a fortnight), that survived would be attracted to a couple of cherry tomatoes cut in half placed at the bottom of the tank. Cucumber slices were also popular but made the water cloudy. I used to get about 12-15 fry to survive over two weeks using the tomato technique then drop catfish flakes in as they got bigger, they grow very slowly and will take upto 18 months to be strong enough to sell after that. Hope this helps
Thanks Nick! Nice update. sometimes things just don't work out exactly, BUT it's always good experience for the next time.
Yeah those blue valves are hard to dial in. Even fully closed they still let air out. Keep at it bro! 😁👍
Thanks for sharing bro, you've done an amazing job on your room, absolutely impressive!!! Keep it up
Love that store in that first vlog (Smith’s aquarium) lol I’m trying to get a job there
Can’t wait for the cpd’s! Been trying to find some for ages.👍👍
Great Video, good luck with the next batch!
I have a fish room similar to yours, I don't have 1 plastic air control valve, they are all unreliable... I have all stainless steel valves ,had them for years, never once had a issue with one yet... I got them from OZAQUA..Tasmania.... they are expensive if you're only buying a couple, but if you are buying hundreds like I did, they work out to be just over a $1.00 each...
Thanks for sharing your experience
Things don’t always go as planned but you’ve learned so much through trial and error and some things just happen out of nowhere (like a dear pleco hurling itself out of the tank). I’ve bred mollies and guppies and other fish and I made a huge mistake when I forgot to put the foam filter on the end of the intake so that fry wouldn’t be suctioned up into the filter. Lesson learnt for sure.
That should have been a given!!!
That’s a mistake that shouldn’t have happened!! We humans are smart enough to know that a filter will suck up fry!!!
You are forever known as the “fry slaughterer”!!!😆😆
A mistake keyed down to laziness!!!🤣
But seriously, if you forgot about using a pre filter on your intake line, then I don’t think your cut out for breeding fish!!
Because, not putting a prefilter sponge on the intake of a filter that’s in a tank with fry is not very bright!!! And should have immediately been dealt with.
Sry, I just had to lay into with this!!! You killed innocent lives due to lack of thinking!!! 😆😆😆🤣
Take care Fry Slaughterer!!!!😳🤔
I am so sorry about the whiptails.
Great video, very educating
Great video. Sorry about the eggs.
Male hillstream loaches are much flatter and have little fences on the front, whereas females can be very plump vertically. Also, the male's bristles are called odontodes as far as I know.
Nice vlog! Keep it up man.
love your videos man keep em coming!
what happened to the whiptails can we please get an update?!
The Ziss air valves are awesome! I gave up on the cheap Chinese ones like that years ago as I kept having exactly the same problem. With the Rainbow fish have you tried feeding heavily with live brine shrimp every day?
I have the same problem with those cheap Chinese valves. #crapmadeinchina Maybe try a 10% bleach solution on the spawning mops to kill the Planaria then wash them well afterwards to remove any bleach residue. Always great stuff, Nick. ~Ron
Hey you should maby male a video of how to culture infusoria please will realy love it.
What tropical fish would you recommend for my new 130L tank? I love your videos!!!
Nice!
How did the giant suggestive pleco cave work?
Any suggestions on how to get bn pleco to breed and tiger barbs please? 😕😁
Where i live, whiptails are quite expensive
I dont know how you managed to breed them
I wonder how much food must be needed for all those fish
can you make a video about all the supplies you use plzzz
Do you still have your last betta fish on the website. Has he changed colour at all, I would be interested in purchasing him.
Hi! I have a question. Did you wait for the eggs to fall off or how did you put them in the tumbler
Can you answer a question for me? At what age do male royal farlowellas get their odontodes (beards)
Sorry about your Royal pleco's.
How many square ft is your fish room. Or square meters
sorry about the whiptail eggs. egg fungus is never a fun experience
My blue eyed lemon bristlenose male uses some kind of kung fu grip and there's no way I can get him or the eggs out.
Next time leave the eggs with the father. Catch them out when they nearly hatch so he does all the work for you with best success.
Those Farlowella eggs are infertile as evidenced by the opaque white look. No embryo developing
Are you going to try again?
I have 10 tetra the females look round and have eggs can I separate to a breeding box on her own there's 1 very fat female.
boost audio volume pls
He will do the work better
this fries are fragile as hell, wonder how they survive in the wild
I sent you a message through your website, still waiting for a reply.

Hi Sir, would you help me to double count of my 6 guppies? I mean help me some donations. Sorry 😅
If everything is just so annoying, why are you doing it? Sorry, but not much of an inspiration for new fish breeders if it told to us that is so annoying and super frustrating
