Budget Fish Room Tour - My Buddy Breeds Tons of Fish in a Small Space with Simple Setups

[@LushSaltyAquariums]

Hello from my fishroom channel in Chicago, where I'm delighted to subscribe to yours. Love the tour (and the garden). shame we couldn't meet the fishroom's owner - I'm guessing he chose not to be on camera?

[@wardwester735]

I just had to be to work at 7am 🤣, Mike slept in. I'll have him back sometime and we'll do it right.

[@All_Things_Fish]

"Slept in," we will go with that! I'll be back out to do a little more in depth tour before too long!

[@nathanhoveyaquatics]

Wow my wife would love to visit that garden, Lily's are her favorite flower. Super cool man..

[@All_Things_Fish]

Hes big on creating hybrid Lillie's. He has some pretty cool ones!

[@LakeMissoulaAquaticsandPlants]

Thanks, Greg! He's got it dialed in pretty nicely.

[@M.Myers1987]

[@All_Things_Fish]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@CrowntailHalfmoon]

Love the video and its nice to see you Mike!

[@All_Things_Fish]

Thanks CTHM! Nice to be back at it.

[@Aquarium_Fantasy-HF]

I am happy your are making videos again 😊

[@All_Things_Fish]

I'm glad to be back as well! It's been a while.

[@StephenP2003]

Nice, I really need to get some of those pygmy rainbows!

[@All_Things_Fish]

He just got them. I'd imagine it won't be long before he has some to share!

[@AndrewFishman]

Pygmaeus are wonderful little rainbows. I am biased though, being Aussie. I love all the 'Bows. Blue eyes and gudgeons are awesome fish too. Check out Desert Gobies and Peacock Gudgeons for companions to Pygmys.

[@al20o33]

love the garden

[@All_Things_Fish]

Me too! He has a good sized pond on his property as well! Next time I am out there, I plan to do an entire video of just what he has going on outside of his house!

[@richardreynolds9896]

Very nice

[@All_Things_Fish]

@@richardreynolds9896 thanks richard!

[@kelleyforeman]

That's a pretty great garden!

[@All_Things_Fish]

Ward is much better at land plants than me, that's for sure!

[@jodip719]

What a cool tour! I live in western Iowa myself (right on the Iowa/ Nebraska border). Have 16 tanks that we are breeding out of so far, but hoping to expand in the nearish future. My favorite fish from your tour are the corydoras eques. They are my bucket list fish. Curious where you guys source your fish from? Thanks for the tour!

[@All_Things_Fish]

@@jodip719 we get most of our fish from fellow breeders, whether that's through online connections, people we have met at events, or the local swap meets! Omaha has a couple swap meets every year, as well as Des Moines. The largest in the area is definitely the Quad Cities swap, though! Buzz me an email, we probably aren't far from each other, and it's always nice to meet like minded folks!

[@jodip719]

@All_Things_Fish I've gotten a few of mine from another breeder in lincoln, ne a few times. My husband and I did go to the fish swap in omaha earlier this year and waiting for the next one. Would love to check out the quad cities swap next year though! I will send an email to you.

[@All_Things_Fish]

@@jodip719 that's awesome. Sounds great. I look forward to chatting with you!

[@jodip719]

​@All_Things_Fish I believe I sent you an email through get gills.

[@nathanhoveyaquatics]

Those Tetras around the 19 minute mark look like a congo and a Buanos Aries mated and made those lol..

[@All_Things_Fish]

They are pretty neat! They'd probably display a little better color if the background wasn't pink! Haha. I give him crap for it every time I'm over there

[@Vinokski.Fishkoto]

Sup brother 😊just remembered that I won one of your giveaway last year lol it a plants that time time a little cold in your place . Hopefully you remembered 🤣

[@All_Things_Fish]

I'll buzz you an email, Vin! Thanks for the reminder.

[@benjaminpeters3885]

great video! what is the name of the tetra that got bleeped out?

[@All_Things_Fish]

Hey Ben! The tetras are alestopetersius sp. Lukeni! I made the mistake of falsely calling them a type of Congo tetra, which they are not. So I edited it out to avoid spreading bad info!

[@VaDirtfishing]

I run aquarium coop sponge but never hurts to try other stuff

[@All_Things_Fish]

I enjoy trying new things! Even though they all function fairly similarly, maybe one of them works better for someone's specific situation than another!

[@elvinsworld11]

Nice. Can you share the website link to the store

[@All_Things_Fish]

@@elvinsworld11 thanks!

[@mexicalifishkeeper]

Hello Mike does your friend sell fish. i have been looking for the black chin livebearer

[@All_Things_Fish]

[@tsif7828]

[@devanedwards2193]

I live in Iowa myself and I am looking into raising fish I want to start slow and work my way into the hobby, but I am also getting interested in breeding to, any ideas, or reliable sources to get fish pairs as well as learning information about just raising fish in general would be cool.

[@All_Things_Fish]

@@devanedwards2193 buzz me an email, and let's talk! I'm always down to chat about fish, and I can help you get in touch with a variety of other folks in the area! [e-mail]

[@devanedwards2193]

Buzzed a email I wanted to wait till after labor day, to get back to ya. Thanks.

[@All_Things_Fish]

@@devanedwards2193 e-mail inbound!

[@subculturemo]

cool set up but did anyone notice the mouse at 3min 40 seconds when opening the small tote.

[@All_Things_Fish]

I went back and double checked after you mentioned this. It's actually one od the small screens he put on the tote! I had to watch it a couple times before I figured it out! Haha

[@VaDirtfishing]

What is that sponge type????

[@All_Things_Fish]

Ward ordered Poret foam from Swiss Tropicals to use for sponge filter media. It works great!

[@-AndrewR]

👍🏻👍🏻

[@All_Things_Fish]

Thanks for watching! Glad you liked it.
