I would return those asap and focus more on pseudomugils,celebes and threadfins,which is what will sell like Coke!😊🎉❤

Hi Justin have you tried breeding Gold or Blue to Black?

Rams are somewhat aggressive by nature. Can they be kept with discus?

I have a male 3spot blue gourami🔵 and Female opaline gourami🔵 and 1 single male bolivian ram cichlid🚩 he will be forever single 😊

Do they eat their egg sac for nutrition or does mom feed them somehow?

Getting platinum gold head gbr. I reeeeally want black knight rams, ive never seen them in person

I'm so curious as to how this went. This might sound like bragging, but out of the 50 or so non-discus fry that I've raised artificially, I haven't lost a single one; do you think that I will also have success raising discus fry or do you think they have some other requirements that make them special. I'm so confused as to why everyone thinks discus fry are difficult to raise artificially. Is it because they just flat out won't accept any food that's not slime coat?? You'd think they'd at least eat paramecium or rotifer if hungry enough. Are they just the exception out of all fish species??

So amazing 😊

Well done!

I don't think so. I'll be busy cooking stuff

The bristlenose is a nice small/medium Pleco that only get to about 4”. By contrast The “standard” Pleco can goto 12”-14”.

Love your rams

Now those r proper ranchus ☝️ Inlike the straight back ones currently being sold at my local PetSmart on November 2024 👍 The ones I saw look more like lionheads

This guy. 🔥🔥🔥

How often and what are you feeding them?

My german rams are in 25*c water and haven't had any issues

What is the life span of Ram in the aquarium ?

How long are guppies in labor for notice when i got home from work that my female black metal guppy had 4 new born in the bottom half of the breeding pen that separates the new born from the mother and she is still just chilling in one corner towards the top.

I have pregnant guppies at what stage do u put them in a breeding box as I’ve ordered a breeding box

Hi Justin, congratulations on being monitized. I am breeding blue Rams and I was wandering if you know anyone that sells the Black Rams. Thank you

I believe the reason the water in the hatching jar needs to be aerated is to ensure that the eggs, and the nauplii when they hatch, get enough oxygen. If the water is still, they will settle to the bottom and pile up, and at least some of them will suffocate. Salt water does not hold as much oxygen gas as fresh water, so the oxygen can get depleted easily if you don’t have constant gas exchange at the surface. You could accomplish the same thing by stirring the water with a spoon constantly, but you’d get pretty tired after 24 hours or so of stirring. (As I’m sure you know, bubbles from an air pump don’t directly add much oxygen to the water. But they keep the water circulating, so mores gas exchange happens at the surface: CO2 out, O2 in.) The agitation also keeps the eggs suspended in the water, so they don’t sink to the bottom, where, again, there’s not enough oxygen to go around. I think it’s highly likely that the agitation also somehow stimulates the eggs to hatch. From what I’ve read, they also require light to hatch. I’ve never tried to hatch brine shrimp in the dark, but it’s said to yield inferior results.

As Justin implies, for hatching brine shrimp, you can use any kind of salt (as long as it’s sodium chloride). You don’t need marine salt mix or any other special salt. “Freshwater Aquarium Salt” is, by the way, common rock salt with a different label. Sometimes they put a little coloring in the salt so you’ll think it’s something special. If you buy it as rock salt, it costs about U.S. $10 for 50 pounds (though prices vary widely). Labeled “aquarium salt,” the most popular brand costs about $15 for 33 ounces. If my math is right, that means that, pound for pound, rock salt labeled “freshwater aquarium salt” is about 36 times the price of rock salt labeled “rock salt.” Brine shrimp (Artemia) live in hypersaline waters- water saltier than the ocean; in some cases, several times as salty. But the cysts (eggs) hatch better in water less salty than seawater. Presumably, this has to do with osmotic pressure affecting the rehydration of the dried cysts. Some people let the cysts soak in fresh water for a while (maybe 15 minutes) before adding the salt, to give their rehydration a boost. All of the above applies to just hatching out the brine shrimp nauplii. If you want to grow them on to adulthood, and perhaps get them to reproduce, you will need water with a higher salinity, a high pH, and perhaps a variety of trace elements. You will also need to feed them, of course.

How big should these Containers be?

Do Bolivian Rams live with guppies peacefully???

If you think this is the only way, then you have no business keeping and breeding any fish.

Well balanced lifestyle best of luck with your studies. The Rams look amazing.

Creating life is always amazing

This is a really good video. I respect the fact you're very selective in what rams you breed. I think the species has a bit of a bad rep from one's being bred with poor genetics. I watch a lot of fish tube and I can't believe I've only just stumbled across your channel.

The great video frind Thanks for the tired and teaching for others

Good work sir! I'm on my 3rd batch from a single pair of bristlenoses this year. I think I'm going to trade some local mom and pop shops for some plants!!

Would temps of 82-84 degrees have any ill effects on Cory catfish? Could I do a school of Harlequin Rasboras?

nice lot of babies gave healthy mother :) *****

What do you feed baby fry?

The problem with keeping the aquarium at 84 to 86 degrees is that most plants don’t like temperatures above 82 max; thus, keeping Rams and Discus in a heavily planted aquarium is a very difficult balance indeed!

As much as I enjoy the visual appeal of a rimless tank, it gives me trust issues!

remarkable growth rate! wow! mine is barely getting 'vertical' growth and its been 29 days. what temperature do you use to grow them?

So glad I came across this video! Black rams spawn 3 weeks ago and ate about 70%. They spawned again yesterday and I started to set up 5 gallon tank. Was not sure how I was going to get new eggs out. Your video is short, to the point and very helpful!

Hi from Singapore! Really good!

What do they eat after being separated from their mother? 4:46

How large is this tank? I heard 12-14 rams but did not hear how many liters/gallons is this tank. Thanks 😊

I love how you are keeping them in the planted tank! I see Dean breeds them like crazy in bare tanks, but my thing has always been keeping fish in as natural environment as possible. I think with Rams the most important thing you can remember is temperature requirements and clean water.

Thanks guy

How do they get oxygen in the container? Did you have hole on the bottom with the tank? Or do you use bubblers?

Livebearers really are the clown cars of the fish world

I'm raising some babies right now, do I refrigerate the egg mixture or make it fresh daily

do you have any for sale?

Look what popped up after 2 yrs Still love watching your growout videos. 👍

Hello! In your opinion, what should be the hardness of the water for growing ramirese. I measured the water in my aquarium with a TDS hardness of 290 to 330 ppm. Is this indicator good for growing Ramirez? Thank you! Is it possible to grow two types of ramires in one aquarium (Apistogramma Ramirezi „Electric Blue“ end German Blue Ram? Is there a possibility that pairs of different species will form and then their offspring will not be a pure breed?
