10 CONGO TETRAS ADDED TO THE SNAKEHEAD AQUARIUM (PLUS UNBOXING NEW PRODUCTS WHATS INSIDE) ???

[@willb6426]

Added snacks for the snakeheads

[@karlmartin9525]

Why don’t you take your subscribers advice and turn their tank into a black water habitat? You’ve never kept that species before whereas other people have.

[@wilesaquatics]

Should change the name to "adding 10 snacks for my snakeheads"

[@MicksFishUk]

Only temporary the snakeheads are way to small to get these guys now.

Great video again! I must call this interesting fact. I started loving your editing & camera work these days. Good learning for aquarium video guy like me. 😄👍

The tanks look lovely but it’s frustrating hearing you keep saying about the Channa being shy. Just leave them to it they’re doing what Channa do which is hide a lot. To make them happy rather than you you should add loads of plants. I kept my Channa tanks like water jungles and never really changed water etc but they bred and looked really happy I always found they eat or shredded anything I added

[@Dxuble_Tap]

Have you got any pointers on how to get my clown loaches bigger. I have 3 big clowns but the small ones are babies

[@wilesaquatics]

Keep them full and wait years

[@MicksFishUk]

He’s right it takes years just have patience 👍🏻 plenty is courgette

[@Ian-qw1zb]

You noted twice that you had moved the corydoras I was just wondering why where the snakeheads messing with them

[@MicksFishUk]

No I was worried if the snakeheads went for them they may get stuck in there throats. So wanted to make it clear I have moved them 👍🏻

[@Ian-qw1zb]

@@MicksFishUk good idea surprised you can keep anything in there with them. Back in the early 90s when we could keep snakeheads here in the US I used to have a really large and mean guy can't remember the species. But would devour anything in the tank with him including big fish like Oscars Red devils even had a alligator gar jump out trying to get away from him. They were his tankmates he just went rogue one day. And then a few years later he decided he had enough and jumped out of the tank while I was away needless to say you didn't make it.. they have really cool personalities it's unfortunate we can't have them over here anymore. Beautiful fish take care of them. Also I think most Corydoras top spine is venomous or poisonous not sure which, but definitely fatal if swallowed.

Nice to see you getting into the Snakeheads Mick, you know Alan already and he is a serious encyclopaedia of knowledge on these fish! Tank is looking great but two snakeheads in one tank are always a recipe for trouble. Usually you either keep a single specimen or a group of five to spread the aggression. They may not fight now but its never a 100% truce between them and many snakehead keepers wake up to see one of their fish floating and torn up, even after they have been living together peacefully for months. Would monitor very closely how the two interact. Anyway, great video and love to see the progress.

[@MicksFishUk]

Thanks mate I am keeping a close eye on them. Hoping they get on together👍🏻. Beautiful fish

[@ryanhiggs3370]

I used to have NT cichlid green for my Malawis but my local aquatic shop stopped selling it now my fish don’t eat as good

[@philipjabra5185]

Best fish food with best results - i find is New Life Spectrum....:)

[@leebennett5129]

Use a strong magnet to pick the aqua soil off the sand bud. I use a 'telescopic magnetic pick up tool' with a few larger neodymium magnets stuck on the end.

[@Dxuble_Tap]

I have the same food that I feed my silver arowana and he loves the stuff. Pretty expensive stuff but it lasts a while and is the best food I’ve ever used

[@familyguy3761]

Hi Mike can’t wait till those bass get big🔥🔥🔥

[@vaneternal5610]

Hi mate, I' am considering changing the method I do my water changes. I used to do it with buckets, which isn't the easiest way. I use to add dechlorinator to every bucket before puring the water to the tank. I am now thinking of putting the water straight from my tap to the tank, therefore my question is: should i add the de-chlorinator after purring the water to the tank or before ?

[@MicksFishUk]

Hey mate I add my water primer as soon as I turn the tap on for the new water. 👍🏻

[@mattphillips6714]

Mick that water conditioner is a lot like Seachem Prime in that it has binders to make Ammonia, Nitrite and Nitrate safe.. for emergencies this type of conditioner is fantastic and could save your livestock and tank from a crash, however for day to day or monthly maintenance this type of conditioner is NOT beneficial as it can potentially starve the bacteria growing in the tank and filters, also setting up new tanks this type of conditioner can stall or re-start a nitrogen cycle. Concentrate chemicals have their place but for general duties where no problems are occurring a conditioner that JUST removes Chlorine and chloramines removes harmful heavy metals and introduces vitamins to help with stress relief and slime coats is the most beneficial. At the moment your monster tank is heavily stocked and you have stated that your waterchanges help reduce ammonia so I can understand why you use what you use but this shouldn’t be a long term solution. Mick I’m not throwing shade at your channel or achievements, I’m only giving you another healthier option for your hobby and fish room.. take care mate your tanks do look amazing

[@MicksFishUk]

Thanks mate appreciate it 👍🏻

[@eprohoda]

Good night~how nice .my dear-

[@gazyg1973]

High great video again I tryed the water conditioner I’ve always used seachem but mate I am sticking to quantum it’s really good stuff bottle has lasted me for ages never go back to prime now thanks 😊

Put some nice food in the snakehead tank Mick . Believe me when the lights go out its feeding time ...

[@markwilkinson2164]

Sorry forgot to say great vids especially with the snakehead tank , it's a learning curve ,ad mine for a year now , u won't b disappointed..

[@PanRybka22]

Nice :)

[@sallythornhill4841]

What temp do you have your tank at to add the other fish. We keep our cobra on his own as his tank is 22oC

[@MicksFishUk]

Hey sally the tank is at 22 now and I will slowly turn it up in the spring around 25-26

[@balamuruganr8256]

Super bro excellent

[@giansamra4493]

Nice setup😎

[@ericb4492]

The bass look like peacocks. You may wake up one day and only have the two snakeheads in that tank. They look almost big enough to eat the tetras you added.

[@bjstyles61]

Hi great video. Can you tell me the name of that wood in the tank please

[@liquidrockaquatics3900]

It’s mopani wood it looks like. Possibly Manzanita wood

[@MicksFishUk]

Thanks yes he’s right 👍🏻😁
