[@chrisscoggins8998]

Dude, the wasps! That was totally cracking me up!

[@herbeenc8042]

🤣🤣🤣

[@sevcents]

I love those barbs. Hope it all works out.

[@Adrianpr5]

I got my money on LRB vs Joey. This is the old school Rocky Balboa training. Building ponds with shovels under this florida 90 plus degree weather. Getting stung by wasps and all the other crazy stuff under that sun and heat all day. Lucas Balboa!!!

[@pattys_aquatics]

Now this build is the epitome of go big or go home 😁 I wish you luck with them I always loved these barbs of yours and I think if there is a way to mass produce them this is the way.

[@ThomasOwl]

Sweet update!

[@assiahinarkansas]

Great progress! Thank you for sharing😊

[@longfamilyshoal94]

Cool build! 🦟🦟

[@MikeGibson-l5e]

Those sounds you were making when the little wasps were getting ya is the sounds to be making alot of when Joey is putting a whipping on ya

[@RocsAquatics]

A great project and a great video. Nice job!

[@chia_pet7121]

29:21 Would be nice to throw a small shade cloth over the pen to make it darker and keep them cooler.

[@Fish-Addict]

So glad you put the wasp attack in the video, had to watch it over and over for your reaction 😂

[@NYGOLD]

I didn't know you can move that fast. LOL 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝 The Barbs look great, I hope they breed "again" for you.

[@dirtyoldfarmhand3]

Awesome. Thanks for the video.

[@Grayman_WWJD]

🔥 thank God you went back to horizontal videos. I might resubscribe.🔥

[@LRBaquatics]

I’ve been making them. I make both.

[@mommymarz]

@23:13 omgggg 😳😭 i hope you’re okay! i would’ve been hospitalized, i’m highly allergic. great pond update. hope you recover from stings ok!

[@LRBaquatics]

Well glad it was me and not you!

[@jeffkane4391]

Definitely a great looking fish in good lighting. Might be time to slowly upgrade the shop lights.

[@LRBaquatics]

Wish I could but that’s way down the list on the budget.

[@chia_pet7121]

3:14 Why not use schedule 20 pipe if you want it lightweight and able to float? Schedule 20 would work nice for the smaller traps.

[@monicawg]

"I think I trapped a wasp in there...guess that's what he gets. Butt head. Let's let him out.." 😂😂🤣 Channel is 🔥🔥🔥!Thanks for the vid!!

[@kurtbrutting5118]

Awesome content Lucas ! I love it!

[@chia_pet7121]

5:55 Since you kind of want it to be flexible, to be able to remove, why not use plastic spirial binding coils or spirial electrical wire covering as it would fold very easily?

[@chia_pet7121]

24:54 What temp does the daphnia get too? I thought they did better in cooler water?

[@kovenant7]

Really cool build. I'd love to make an outdoor pond with fish and newts. With high walls so they can't get out.

[@LRBaquatics]

Newts would be cool

[@kovenant7]

@@LRBaquatics We don't have any newts here or salamanders, too hot. Only in the pet stores.

[@kovenant7]

Will my swordtails in my pond eat on the same plant as you have? While I'm gone for a few days?

[@LRBaquatics]

Yeah they can snack on that t and be fine for a couple days. I have left my fish room for a week and everything was good. Tanks even looked cleaner.

[@726fhd7ywhjjfuudik]

Love it Man

[@Aquarium_Fantasy-HF]

Hopefully, nothing will happen to them, I know you really care for does fish. I am going to try and replicate your idea with 2: 75 gallon aquariums 😊

[@wayneabel5421]

You are probibly aware but theyvare quiet like rainbows they spawn or chase most mornings in the really low light ...not sure if the fry I saw them eating were baby mascara or odesa barbs

[@later_daze_4080]

Wasps are some mean mothers! No joke.

[@chia_pet7121]

2:59 When working with new materials that folks may not be experienced with, it would be helpful to show how you cut or merge the new parts and the tools needed. A regular saw will not cut this material well. I just used a pair of plyers and pulled down to snap out a row. Not sure how you did it. Also, being a styrene type of material, it is rather brittle to weight and impact. I have a terrible time with opossum and raccoons and would be concerned if a fat raccoon were to jump on the top of the pen.

[@A_Lip_OP]

Man I’d love to buy some of those from you. I been breeding green tiger barbs, tiger barbs and tried a couple other barb types but those mascara barb are beautiful. I’d love to get some

[@Pray4Mojo1]

Damn man, what kind of wasps attack that quickly? It was funny but scary how fast that happened! Anyways good to see you're outside working on the fish, I haven't done much of anything outside this year.

[@LRBaquatics]

I had ran my hand into a whole nest they had built on a pole out there. So they just swarmed.

[@Pray4Mojo1]

Well, I feel stupid for laughing at you. I thought this evening I'd hit the local lake and do some fishing before dark. I got to my favorite spot, and I'm not sure what was going on, but I walked into a swarm of yellow jackets. They chased me all the way back to the car through the trees and stung me quite a few times. There may have been something dead they were feeding on, or they built a nest within the last week since I had been there. Good thing I'm not allergic. I left my window rolled down a crack, and they literally went into the car.

[@JacksonR-k3v]

I exfoliate with wasp stings every morning 💪

[@LRBaquatics]

👾

[@chevyfish4028]

Nice looking summer breeder box. I'm sure it will keep the dragonflies out. Best of luck on your special, close to your heart breeding project. Hurtling from the wasps was priceless though sorry they got you. Wasp detour area must be instituted for yours and your family safety.

[@jamesholbrook7785]

What is that fins and fury boxing? Did you and Joey have a disagreement or something?

[@garystein9536]

Nature be nurturing

[@LRBaquatics]

August 17th it’s happening you can go to FinsNFury.com they have tickets to the venue and PPV. Sanctioned by NY Athletic Commision. No disagreement just good times with good people 😄 If you do want to watch the PPV if you get tickets from my bio it goes to support me.

[@kurtisstutzman7056]

Rock on...!!!

[@726fhd7ywhjjfuudik]

Hey Lucas have you had to deal with parasites recently? Just curious. Im here in Canada where parasite medication is reeeally hard to come by

[@LRBaquatics]

I don’t really mess with meds anymore. Haven’t really had to with where I get my fish. But different parasites do take different meds.

[@726fhd7ywhjjfuudik]

@@LRBaquatics yep, I failed to quarantine and let some infected fish into my livebearer colonies. Kinda demoralizing but I gotta get on it. Dealing with some internal orangeish thin parasites. Not as bad as camallanus but this ones hard to get rid of. It also attaches to algae at times.

[@jamesholbrook7785]

@@LRBaquaticswhere do you get your fish? Dan’s fish?

[@tanyah2524]

If we click on your link to buy tickets and then buy from fins n fury, does that help you?

[@LRBaquatics]

Yes if you click my link from FinsnFury it does help me ❤️

[@dustinking4004]

How is that Egg Crate going to hold up in the Florida Sun?

[@LRBaquatics]

It won’t last more than a couple years if I don’t get shade over it. But one good spawn from them will will cover any cost for a new one.

[@14pedro415]

Man It look like a scene from Jason like LRB was getting chased through the woods hope you’re OK brother

[@Randykoch-t6f]

Predatory fins had albino mascaras at one point. Hint hint!!

[@chia_pet7121]

I thought you were a wasp? 🐝

[@johnnybest6386]

Yooooooo

[@LRBaquatics]

Yooooooooo

[@darrylmoore5847]

Awesome video, except for being stung. That is never fun.

[@chia_pet7121]

23:51 Yeah, the same UV light that tans the fishbelly white people to a nice tan is the same UV light that will color up some fish pigment cells. 🏜
