@@briannehedlund5530 thanks me too

@@briannehedlund5530 I had lots of help.. thank you

@@Schitzomatt it’s not fancy but it’ll make fish

@@JessieIsreal that’s my whole intention. I can stack tanks now

@@Schitzomatt there’s some money in breeding fish if you can meet the demand of a retail space but that demand is ever changing.. so if you can kinda predict or follow trends you can do pretty well.. if you stick to what you know the market may change

It happens.. but good sellers are the key. Thanks for watching

Thanks I don’t do you tube well .. but I try to give info from my experiences.. thanks for watching

Good seller is the key

The important thing is the seller and their willingness to replace or resolve the issue.. thanks for watching

Ya caught that did ya

Nice .. remember high protein diet will help with growth and color development 👍

These particular specimen was N class type 1-2nd generation wild endler this species is known as cumana poecila wingie and was here for conservation project this species is believed to be extinct in the wild and has been in captivity since 1980 we are very proud of the work we have done producing 500 offspring for future conservation efforts

Hello. I have read your comment. Wish I can help you preserving the original gen. Of this fish. We have a lot of this fish in the wild. here in our place. If you want you can have some . Just teach me how to import. ​@@mattfish1992

People can’t skip Alice In Chains it would be blasphemy

@@mattfish1992 my boyfriend and I would karaoke that song on repeat while taking shots of Jameson on Sunday mornings. He passed away recently so I definitely love your song more 🥰

It’s talking a little long than I hoped we just got the basement cut out for the sump and we got till January before the concrete is here so it’s going but not fast

@@mattfish1992 hopefully you are documenting everything. I love video that show a timelapse of a project.

@@mexicalifishkeeper as much as I can I’m not doing most of the work it’s done when I get home but I been taking small clips of the construction I’m going to do the fit and finish though

I’ve had my best luck with green water breeding it seems the protein rich food also is an advantage I use beef hart chicken liver and brine shrimp on my females no flakes it sounds crazy I know but the protein is the key with livebearers it’s like a pre natal vitamin male on the other hand need nothing special

O and they sell well we mark them as pastels and people buy them up

Platinum and turquoise mosaic gets these colors

Thank I been breeding for over 30 years I actually have two fish rooms but soon will all be all in one I don’t do to many videos because I don’t have many show tanks and people always think it should look perfect but it’s a dirty job and most don’t realize that they think every tank should look perfect but if you need any tips on the cichlids lmk I got a few tricks for getting larger clutch’s .. I can tell you to skip the expensive food and buy the cheapest frozen shrimp form dollar general and some high protein like beef harts from Walmart in the meat section lmk if you would like a homemade frozen food recipe it will save you tons of money

@@mattfish1992 wow that is a lot of years of breeding. I did have a question on my last video that i got mixed answers to. If i put yellow labs, blood dragons, and blue dolphins in the same tank will they cross breed? i know they are hap mbuna and peacock so im hoping not but dont want to mix them if they will.

@@GCaquatics I’ve never done the dolphin but yellows will breed with anything and the blood I could never get numbers out of I think it was the hybrid gene I never mixed any except the yellow with red zebra but I keep them lines intact and then play around in a separate tank

@@mattfish1992 Last time i bred i did do a mix of yellow lab and red zebra the babies to see waht id get, but right now i dont have room for all kinds of crazy stuff so i gotta be really specific with what i try and breed. I will just keep them separate, the yellow labs are not liking the tank they are in, i might have to bite the bullet and buy a bigger tank for them.

@@GCaquatics try some pvc pipe pieces from depo or lows I use the 2 1/2 inch I cut them to around 6 inches it gives them territory to defend I also feed 3 times a day when I want to promote breeding it lets them know there is plenty of food available for fry

They are old under gravel filter grates that I cut into quarters it ads surface area for bio film to grow

It’s not for sale but you can build one

@@mattfish1992 you should do a video on how to build one
