- Every time I visit a new fish room, I am blown away by the amount of knowledge the hobbyist has. Jack was no exception. He has traveled the world collecting killifish and breeds a large amount out of his basement fish room. He shares a lot of secrets he uses to keep these amazing fish thriving. Jack was an amazing guy to meet and has a very unique look at killifish breeding! What an experience.

Dude is a Killifish encyclopedia!!! Awesome! 👍
This guy is so cool. His narration is really calm,relaxing n info packed! Legend
You're a fantastic interviewer. So respectful and gracious. It makes a huge difference in the quality of the content.
Amazing guy Jack! Thanks for sharing this ...
This guy has been longer in the hobby than I do live. What an incredible resource of knowledge and experience! Thumbs up for bringing these people in front of a camera!
Rob, I'm so glad that you guys continue to document these amazing people and their expertise. Truly of great value to the hobby.
Love the fact that he has been collecting the fish for so long.
Finally someone you can just feel the true passion and love from, this tour was awesome 💚 wish the video was longer
Oh, man. Killies are a labor of love. I wouldn't be able to put that much work in for 1 year of fish.
Jack Heller is an awesome keeper and nice guy! Thanks for the vid, I have been curious about his fish room.
Holly molly, those were some BIG hydras at 7:05.
LMFAO @10:00
"It's native to southern Missouri isn't it?"
"I guesss"
What a wonderful fish keeper! I’d love to pick his brain on the hobby! Tbh between this video and lrb’s video I’ve watched over a dozen times! Just amazing!
This was a great video. Jack knows his stuff on killifish. It was so nice to hear him talk about his hobby, fish and collecting trips. Such an interesting man. Thanks for sharing such a true gem to the hobby. Hope you visit him again.
Killifish breeders and their little flashlights... Bless their hearts^^.
Hi Rob, Loving your fish room tours. Enjoy your tours the most out of everybody on you tube. Your really good at them and go into great detail, always learn something. Have a Great day Rob and keep up the great content. :)
Keep up the visits to other hobbyists fish rooms. Great to get ideas and techniques. I agree with you: very innovative aquarium rack leveling application. Good idea for the shrimp/krill frozen blend too.
this has got to be one of my favorite youtube videos. thank you for posting it!
Wow!! Very nice interview and tour - Thank You!!💕👍👍
Wow, cool fish room!
Awesome! Love the enthusiasm after all those years in the hobby! Good Stuff!
Such a great person, thank you for letting us see all your fish!
Such treasures of knowledge! Keep showing these fishkeeping treasures!
Thank you for documenting this Man and his work with fish!!!!
Another great fishroom tour. These killi guys have a lifetime of information on some very rare stuff
Facinating, great collection/setup, always been a fan of killifish
I love those videos, amazing fish room. 😁
Amazing collection of killis I think I see my future self here,starting with normans lampeyes and having great success with breeding. Thank you Rob for showing us this great fish room thank you Jack for sharing your knowledge
Definitely a correlation between the top collectors/breeders in the hobby and intelligence! All of the "old timers" come from usually very intellectual careers and are all well read and well spoken!! Very neat and makes perfect sense they are the top hobbyists for sure!!
Flip aquatics, I hope my support helps you stay alive on here. I love your info you give out. I love being able to see these guys that have been breeding fish for as long as I have been alive. I was born in 1982.
His voice is so soothing!
Such an awesome collection, and it sounds so fun to go travel to collect species.
The screw box idea for the fry is brilliant
He has a verry nice fish room. Awsome video sir thanks.
awesome , another amazing video Rob
I have bred Killifish, it is a memorable thing and would recommend it to any true Hobby fish keeper. This Guy is a gem. Thanks for sharing.
I'm voltron: oh really I'm a democrat I have a male pro-democrat🔵👍🏾 paradise gourami fish named BLUETIGER he will takedown a republican🔴👎🏻 Florida flagfish anyday 😊 my pro-democrat paradise gourami fish will be bred with his pro-democrat🔵 female paradise gourami queen.
I love this guy. LOVE LOVE LOVE
I have a large male Hoplo I rescued from LFS several months ago. Wonderful fish. I am currently growing out two Hoplo fry, in hopes that one or both are females. They grow daily and will soon be able to meet the old man in his tank. Thanks for the vid. Very cool fish room!
Man I know you’re starting out, but I only subscribed for these little house tours you go on, they’re so dope! You meet so many people and see so many cool fish. Stashed gems 💎 keep them coming man, these house visits are dope!! These videos are where your views are at. Don’t lose them
I love your fishroom video an these two guys seem like some cool guys keep up the great work buddy
What a sweet guy. great fish room too
Love you man, just keep on grinding. You are soon at 50k subs! And then we go too 100K!
Fexi CSGO Highlights and more! Thank you so much Fexi :) I appreciate that!!
Very cool fishroom, I'd like to see more detailed how that threaded rod works as his shelving.
Amazing information and the tours are awesome. I do hope a lot of people from different countries sees this, so that they would understand that america is not just about chain stores when it comes to the aquarium hobby. There are amazing fish keepers in america as well that have a ton of experience and knowledge about the hobby.
Great video and awesome fish keeper.
Because of this video you earn a news subs!!thanks man keep it up.
I too am from Missouri, I just started a planted native tank and my first fish in this tank is a Bayou killfish…..So I love this video
Thanks for the fish room tour I feel some others have stopped doing them and that's what got me into the fish hobby.
You are so right. I love to watch how others operate their fishrooms. So cool to see their short cuts and little inventions.
Super awesome guy! Nice video!!
Great fish room tour!
This is on another level !!
Awesome fish room .
very nice fish room and experiance
Cool fish room 👍🏻
Awesome room sir!
Great video
Outstanding video
great video, that is amazing devotion new sub here keep these video's coming
As a killifish breeder myself , I wish I could be as good as him.
Amazing 😍
Lovely tour Tnx. I’m thinking about getting me some killies
Father Fish and this guy would get in a HEATED debate about water changes haha
Awesome!
This is amazing
Whilst I would agree that in a poorly setup aquarium you do need to change the water regularly, if the filtration is correct you could go years just topping up what evaporates, I know this because I've had aquariums running this way. All I would say is don't feed your fish lots of food, after all in their natural surroundings they only eat when it rains or what they can scavenge, if this was understood and explained more I think more people would have aquariums.
What a great guy
Again a amazing video, tank you! :)
vis aquarium I see what you did there :)
haha ;)
Great video!! Very informative, those bichardii cichlids looks like anthias in saltwater. Nice vid✌
I love hearing that these great guys are all friends. Gary Lange is just awesome. :)
Damn! I finally got to see Jack Heller's fish room.
True passion.
Thanks
He's the Bob Ross of killifish
Awesomeness
amazing
is he referring to Aqua Sol Complete Water Treatment & purifying solution ? Thanks
those redi-rod racks are cool. Have never seen that idea before
Nicks Fishroom I know, I've never seen it and love it!
Ram's horn snails to help manage a tank. Wow.
what is that floating plant?
So cool! I really want clown killifish but it seems my water hardness and pH doesn't match up with them 😢
Man, look at all that hydra.. I'm going to have to order the book that he was talking about.
Aquari-Sol, i still have a bottle of this from the 80's :) it is basically copper salts in a liquid form...so not good for snails or shrimp...but it is indicative of the old school medication that we got to use back then. Good stuff this video :)
Good vid
What are the things hanging in the tanks that look like mangrove roots? Very cool video!
Lindsey Lee mops
very cool 💙💚💛💜
Do you have the blue white dot killfish?
Thx. :)
Of the meticulous fish keepers (keeper's) genre.
What brand peat moss do you recommend? And which killifish species do you find easier to hatch? And which ones live longer than a year? And where can I purchase pairs or either eggs?
Where does one acquire lucite containers that size?
Is Jack still active? I'm setting up a rack for killifish, but I'm new. I live in Springfield MO. I'd like to get some eggs!
I want that Missouri hornwort.
I'll bet my entire life savings that he's an engineer.
Well since I know him be lucky you didn't bet because you'd have lost it all. Try an accountant for the Fed's. (retired)
@@midwestconsortium9817 he literally said it in the video too if he watched it! lol
I know this is a old video, But Does he still stay around the granite city area?
just wow
That’s a lot of killifish 🙈😍
Rob can you do a video on how to breed the killifish and incubate/hatch them please?
F.B.I. Fish Breeding Icon.
That is an amazing fish room does he sell his fish
Great Video! Whats the name of the big one 4:30 ?
Can the eggs be placed in a egg tumbler?
Curious as what all those yarn decorations are in the tanks? Saw this in the other video with the older lady who had been in the hobby for 50 years. Was that just the style of decorations before all these plastics got out of hand?
Killifish like to spawn in the yarn.
