I like your breeding ethics, I would feel very comfortable getting fish you bred, knowing that you manage the gene pool right. For other breeders, it’s really a gamble, some don’t even understand the concept of inbreeding, or dismiss it all together. I’m glad you are open with how you manage diversity, more breeders should be open about it.
I watch this video a couple years back… listening to your most recent podcast I actually went to watch this video again before you even suggested for us to go back and watch it. It’s really good stuff. You guys and also reef builders (reef therapy) are the reason that I dived so deep into this hobby
So knowledgeable. I love this hobby so much and love to learn from you thank you. I have a small guppy tank with a trio of blue rams and just got my first five fry surviving !
How do you remove some without having to remove all the plants? I have a Platies colony and when it’s time to remove i have a hard time removing everything and the fishing out without catching too young ones
We keep all of our sales tanks planted, so we have a lot of experience in getting them back out. It does take some patience, but with practice you can remove fish without disturbing the plants. Remember that when catching fish that they will always be faster than you, so you have to try to outsmart them. A lot of us use the two net method: use a small net to chase fish into a larger stationary net
A 60 liter aquarium increases your electricity bill in the Netherlands by 300 euros. I can't afford that. In the cold months I have 2 containers of 15 liters, and in the warm months 4. I used to have large containers and I could breed my own breed, but my own breed, no, that is no longer possible. But I took a look at what the pet store sells. There you see males with an almost colorless tail, and the body color is often disappointing. Furthermore, males often do not yet have color, and as a buyer you can become disappointed if the color develops in a direction they do not like. So what do I do? I am not specific to a breed, but the tail and body of the male I purchase must be completely colored. And if he is of the same breed as one of the "old" males, he replaces him. I only use females born in my tanks for breeding. I only get males from the pet store that are already fully colored, and I let females grow virgin for six months. A week before they go to the pet store I add my most beautiful males. To prevent ugly men in the store from impregnating them...

You don't have to euthanize them. That was my hangup too. You just let them go live with the turtle or the oscars or anything that prefers live food.
