Yes please also on the tree build video. 🌳 😀 My highlight of Saturday mornings is drinking coffee and watching your videos.
Aww!! 🥲 that’s just the best! Ok, we’re coffee buddies then!
Dollar Tree, silicon muffin pans... Joanna I think a DYI video is called for, thank you from NYC
Did you even have to ask? Of course I want to see you do a video on making your own shrimp tree. Your creativity and shrimp trees...Heck yes!!
Such adorable little trees for nano shrimp tanks.
👍❤👍
Lol! You are so funny! ☺️
Yes, show us how to make our own shrimp trees.
I've never seen someone so excited over a twig and I love it 😂❤️
🤣 the little things in life! ☺️
Yes create a video on that 🌳
Yes Please! A make it video would be amazing🤗
Yes please do that. I love all your video. 🐠
Yes, yes, yes, want to see a DIY video from you!!! You are so awesome, Joanna!
I never heard of this trend before, but the last time I went to my local fish store, I picked up two pieces of spider wood that fit together to look like a tree, and a heavy piece of driftwood with a hole in the middle to put them into for my new 5.5g custom-dirt shrimp tank I’m setting up! I have them soaking in my old leaky tank for now. So excited for my new build!
Oh yes a tutorial video would be great on making these adorable little trees.
I can’t wait to see how you use them in a scape!
Such a fun little item
They are so cutie 🥰
Yes Joanna, please make those videos! 😁😁😁
The shrimp really like to eat the fungus, they can clean it for you!
Thank you again for all the tips.
👍 And thank you for another great video. Of course make the video.
We need more 👍👍👍
Would we like a DIY video on how to make these.... What community are you talking to? Yes.... A thousand times yes. lol
... even if we have no intention of making one ourselves, still yes!
Always so creative Joanna! 🙂
...Find the right shape & add a little Christmas Moss (sparingly) to the tips with just one tiny, droopy ornament:
Recipe for your very own underwater Charlie Brown Christmas Tree,
just for the lols. 🤭
Have a great weekend! 🌱
Great find, maybe use Alder or Oak small branches ? And silicone pebbles or small stones/rocks at the bottom ? Oh the possibilities 😄
Happy Saturday Dr.Joanne! Yes as you can see from your comments we would all love to see you build a tree I think I could speak for all of us when we say we love your enthusiasm and enjoy each other's comments about your enthusiasm!
Yes please do a video. I love these. Thank you Joanna. You always inspire us.
Yay! That makes me happy, Bonnie. ☺️
great to see you each Sat...yes to video
☺️ Aww. Thank you! Great to “see” you too!
You know what's really interesting I actually thought about making something like that where my tanks
Yes please! 🌿
omgosh! I need these in my life for my tank! Please yes do a tutorial video on how to make these!
I’d love a video about creating my own! So cool!
Yes tutorial would be Great! Thanks.
Another fun video Joanna, I already got the brain spinning on how I can use a 'shrimpy tree'
Yes let’s see you do your talent in your tanks love watching and have learned a lot ‘ gotta say there’s those that say OH NO DONT USE SUPER GLUE IN YOUR TANK and I know that’s not true ‘ so many different rules I bought me some moss to put on my drift wood 😀 fun !
Yes plz to the video! It sounds like it would be very cool. You could always use silicone aquarium sealer mixed up with the gravel and then let it set up. It's already proven safe to the critters. Just a thought.
Yes! Absolutely ☺️☺️☺️
Happy Saturday! I'm scaping a 40 gallon breeder today. I have my last shipment of black seiryu stone & spiderwood getting delivered today & will get the hardscape going! Probably rewatching all of y'all's videos today while I do it 😊
What an adorable idea! I have never seen them before, thanks so much for sharing it!!!
Yayyy!!!!
Cute!
Would love videos on making hard scape or other decor items!
Sweet! Ok, it will be fun. 😌
Sometimes you buy a bigger piece to use in a tank, and there's a branch or two that's too long, or sticking out in the wrong direction. Great use for the off cuts!
Yes - now it’s a win win!
Wonderful video! Would love to see more videos to show a variety of helpful ideas.
I wish you started your channel before I got my 55. I love the 4 Tanks behind you. It would have been fun to create multiple scapes like you do. Always good tips and ideas.
Thank you Jennifer, I’m so glad you like those tanks. 😌
So cool Thanks Joanna! But... I want your bracelets!! So Christmassy. Happy Days!
Lol! Yippe for Christmas 🎄 bling!! 🤩
Definitely need a tutorial, would love to see how these can be implemented as well.
Really cool looking 🤩 Would love to see a video on attaching Aubias nana petite 🎄
Yes please, make a diy shrimp tree video with materials list!!
Oooh - ok!!
Made myself two today for my shrimp cubes, thanks for the idea :)
So fun! ☺️
Good Morning.
YES DO A VIDEO
Yes. Please make a video on making a shrimp tree. It will be great. Christmas coming. Are you going to make some decorations for Christmas like when your first videos came out?
Yes please show how to safely do it for fish
It seems to me that Flip Aquatics used to sell a small tree with little round platforms on it so you could glue moss or Suswassertang to it. I have always liked the little trees! This is really nice!
Yayyyy, MOSS BALLS! 🌳
☺️
This is a great tip! Stuff like this is hella expensive in fish shops! 😁
Please do a video of making these, that would be great!!!!!
I sent the professor a picture of that brine shrimp hatchery, great size for nano tanks and no air needed.Why did the blonde carry a ladder into the bar? She heard the drinks were around the house.
No more dollar tree. Now it is a $1.25 store. Don't know if they will keep the name or change it. Bought some items for $1.25. Never seen a shrimp tree. Could you make your own with silicone and stones and wood. I bet you would make a great looking shrimp tree with aquarium plants attached with super glue. Cannot wait for a tutorial video on how you will make your own tree. Great video as always and full of info.
If resin was used to bond the gravel, then the bottom form used was more likely a plastic condiment container (the kind you get with restaurant take-out for tartar sauce or salad dressing). The resin doesn't stick to these plastic containers after it hardens. You simply peel it off once it sets. I wouldn't put resin in a metal muffin tin. That would be a pain to remove, and ruin the tin in the process.
Right, lined somehow. 😌
Silicone muffin baking sheets would also work. I've used them for similar projects.
Yes - a video on making trees would be great!! K (super glue gel turns white in the water - so would not look great)
Ok, cool! And, yes, correct ..some super glues turn white. ☺️
Just saw this video pop up, I've watched a lot of your videos and somehow never saw this one! I had an idea for my Egyptian tank still wants plants tho it's a 5 gallon betta tank with king tut and the sphinx but I'm wanting to make palm trees with sticks spread out and glue at the top with moss to
These are very clever, they give me a few ideas! I thought maybe the base was infused with some kind of shrimp snack. Hence the name. Thanks again! 💚❤💚
Haha! Oh wow that would be cool ! You could watch them “flock” to the trees like birds. 🤭😍
That last tip has been a suggestion I have given too... although I have never employed it myself. Using the gravel in your tank and aquarium safe silicone, create your own weighted plants (for those people like me who can't do live plants). If your fish pull it/them up and move it/them around, it/they will still blend in and not be so noticeable. I never thought to use that technique on driftwood though. That's brilliant!
Howdy! Yes! What a great solution, right?! 🙌
Finally have time to sit and watch all your videos!! This was my Christmas gift to myself lol. Yea please make a video making these!! Love your videos Jo!! Merry Christmas to you guys!!
Aww!! That’s so sweet of you to say!! I’m looking forward to making these trees, glad you like them too! Merry, Merry Christmas!!✨🎄✨
Good morning and happy Saturday Joanna!! This is definitely an exciting little project to do!! As always you inspire me to get my thinking cap on and get creative!! I want a little shrimp tree forest in a tank 🌿💚
Thank you so much for the tips and tricks this morning and I would definitely love to see you do a video of making your own!! Have a blessed weekend my friend! 🙏🥰❤️🌿🐟🌿💚
Dear Mary Paige Flynn,
May I drop this message to you ?
At this time of year I have always made it a point of those in my life who have made a difference for me in any given year. this year that I have had it has been a exceptionally tumultuous one. The only thing good that came out of it was my adopting my fish which then in turn led me to coming to the chats.
🧠💭🤗 (Hug)If you are reading this could I express A Huge note of thanks to you.?You strike me as very appreciative and joyous like myself.I hope I will be able to meet you someday At one of these fish keeping conventions and to say thank you in person. When I first got on to the chats I was a little afraid of any persecution because of my Fishkeeping inexperience and Billion questions. You were the first person on the multiple chats who helped me come out of my shell ( aquatic pun intended 😀) and gratitude is mine 😎
Happy holidays to you and yours and thank you always🕊️
PS I really do own a pet dove,(Henri) So I truly Extend you a white dove feather virtually with my gratitude🤗
@@oinkmastersupremeforever oh my goodness my friend 😭❤️ thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing! I came into this community the same way I was always scared to talk and even though I've owned fish for years, I did not have the experience or the knowledge that so many people have!! It has been one of the best learning experiences in my life and has truly helped me through some hard times just being here with the fish fam and being able to keep fish again!! It's been a long time since I could say I had real friends meeting people like you and everyone here absolutely fills my heart !! I get up every morning and do my gratitude of what I'm thankful for! I'm thankful for you and everyone here and I hope you have a truly blessed holiday season 🙏🌿🐟🌿❤️🥰🤗 I'll take that big virtual hug and I'm giving you one back 😁 and we will meet one day I'm calling it now 🤗🥰❤️
Awww and Henri❤️ much love my friend!!🙏
🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️ I have family down in Florida that I'm hoping to do a trip in February to go see them and go to my first Fish keeping convention (aquashella )Ever in Orlando. I really hope everything works out that I can go.. My family didn't know what that was so I said go on TH-cam and look at the videos and they said wow! This looks awesome so I'm hoping I'll be able to get them to go too!! 😘
I haven't been to a fish event either and to be able to meet you and give you a big hug!! I'm going to try to speak it up into existence and claim it now that I'm going to make it and so are you to aquashella 🙌🙏👍🤗🥰
Yeah, I need a video. Please
Happy TSSS Joanna 😊 I have not heard of a shrimp tree, but would enjoy seeing you craft one!! I like videos that show a how-to scape/build/craft/whatever. ...Another throwback video you did that I absolutely loved was when you crafted miniature potting benches for your greenhouse, complete with mini plants, rug and fairy lights! I think I watched it like 5 times. So adorable. Thx for sharing your tips, tricks and creativity with us...it brings so much joy!! 😊✨🌱🐠🦐🐌🌸🍂❄️🌲
Hi, yes, please, show us how to make them.
I love it
Make a video on the making of the shrimp tree
Do the vid on making shrimp tree ideas
Yes, please make the video of your DIY tips on making the trees. I'm also looking forward to the next scape you make in the series of the two and a half gallon cube shaped tank from Lifeguard Aquatics. I loved the first one so much that it inspired me to get one from my LFS and do something similar.
I think you need to "bake up" a batch of muffin tin trees Joanna! :)
Haha! I love it - I can’t wait to 🤣🌱😃
Make a how to. So cute!
Love these!! Yes, definitely a video on making them!! I have shopped and worked on my tanks already this morning. Never spending over $20 for things to add in one trip.
Great tips Crafty vid. I'd checkout some episodes to see you turn some branches into trees. Also, I think how you flowed through " red wig red twig dogwood branches" was impressive :) I would have tripped into an audible crashing cartwheel right there. (Of course edited into blooper purgatory never to be seen) So nice job!
Haha! So glad you appreciate the finer things in life. 😂
@@thesmallscape :)
Joanna, let’s be real, we absolutely want to see you make some, it was silly of you to even ask 😜🤣✌🏻
Ahaha!!! Ok, I will keep it REAL! ...shrimpie! 😂
Tree build video please!!! 💕🐟🐠🌱🌳
✨🙌✨
I almost screamed out loud when you held up that little tree! I need some and I'm going to go get some Manzanita! They are so darling! Thank you thank you thank you! I would love to see any video you would make about these little trees!
Ahaha!! Aren’t they adorable?! 🤭😃 I look forward to making a video for sure!
Hi! OMG I love it! I would love to see a creative shrimp tree video from you.. those are so cute. Do you know if you can use backyard twigs? I'm kinda on a winter budget... Lol Thanks Joanna
Hi Joanna 😁 That is so cute! I have tries to make similar things using tiny clay pots, but I like the base of that little tree so much. Looks so much easier to bury and hide. I wonder if they used aquarium sealant to hold the base/rocks together? YES please to a tutorial video!!
Great video again!!! Can you show us the way to make the gravel part of the tree?
Absolutely- will do! ☺️
i never knew about this
I'm just going to come out and say that the availability of most anything freshwater related here in middle TN is kind of poop unless you want a pond. Other than commercial stores we have access to 1 good store called Aquatic Critter.
Really? That is a bummer for sure. Sorry to hear that - but great if you like ponds. ☺️
make'm!!
Is this a new trend in the US? I don’t really keep up with it as much here most of my following and fellow scapers are European. I know Filipe Oliveira was the first to main stream this with his AGA contest tank in 2007. Should check it out it was gorgeous. I have done a couple over the years. A rather large one last year I ended up taking down that was moss as moss is a pain to keep algae out of in a low tech. I also did one in a Gourami scape and uses Alternanthera reineckii mini as the foliage. Saw Balazs from Green Aqua do that and it did amazing for a plant that isn’t really an epiphyte. Only negative is it will grow bright white roots off that have to be trimmed or look bad. As you mentioned Anubias would be great on one. With enough fast growing plants in the tank to combat algae. I think hygrophila pinnatifida would make a really nice one if trimming was kept up and especially in a high energy tank with nitrate limitation to get that nice red from it. I haven’t thought of a tree scape in a while! Thanks for bringing this back up might have to again one day. My mind is so focused on the IAPLC tank for 2022 I forget to enjoy the fun small scapes!
Please do make video of how to make them, Hi from Plymouth UK.
Ok, will do and hello, 🇬🇧!!
I like and want one.where to purchase.??
I live in New Zealand which would be paradise except there are no freshwater shrimp allowed to be imported into the country and I have never seen any Manzanita wood available in the country. Its so sad.
Oh wow, that’s 2 bummers. 🙁
💚💚💙💙
hi
Christmas Shrimp Tree??? Bet you could make one and be fist friendly.
Definately do a DIY video
I love this idea but manzanita branches are like twelve bucks for one little twig everywhere I've seen it 😞
Ya, it can be quite expensive, that why I like foraging for the little broken pieces - or even spider wood instead. ☺️
I see a yogurt cup
Try saying fire flower 3X fast.
