I just put this (maintaining fish tanks) into perspective and realized that your hobby takes a ton of work! You must have put so many man hours! Thank you for sharing.

[@SCFishKeeping]

😂 It does take a little bit of maintenance!

This video changed my life. I just got a 4 red eared turtles 1 albino and became attached to all and do not want to give any away. This is the answer ...thank you for posting and your video ...AND YOUR creating a filter VIDEO was A++ thank you for your help as this helps me out ALOT

[@SCFishKeeping]

Thank you!! I'm glad to hear it was such a helpful video!!

[@starlikeromp]

Every fish is a keeper suits this channel well

[@hump1201]

Like the catchphrase! Also like the fish room. I have a 20 gallon with a betta and some minnows, a roughly 2k gallon pond I dug with a largemouth and bluegill my son caught and a perch I caught, and a 110 gallon feed trough with a bunch of goldfish that i feed to the bass. Do not have the room/opportunity for a fish room like yours, so keep up the great work! It's fun to see what you're doing down in that basement of yours!

[@_lux_aeterna_]

Nice to have something to keep you occupied I spent a small fortune in camping gear soon as this virus is over I'm packing up and going g in a month long wilderness camp 💯👍

I "like" think the new sign off is perfect because you have so many fish that "big-time" You, sorry scratch that, FishTubers would never keep let alone put in a video. Keep it up my dude, you're really putting out some quality stuff.

Thanks buddy! Felt good to crank out another video finally! Been too long!

YESSSSS! Been waiting for a new video! I completely shaved my head bald so I feel that part with the clippers hahahaha. I can't wait to see what's going into the big pond, the 300gallon is gonna be SIIIIIIIICK with all the natives in there

[@SCFishKeeping]

I almost really shaved it during that clip! Partly for the video ... And partly because the hair is driving me nuts! 😂

Been thinking of trying an indoor pond at some point too. This video gave a lot of insight towards that, looks great too.

[@ThetrueRealEstateguru]

i just got a 300 gallon stock pond today and strapped it to the top of a chevy cobalt!!

[@steves6918]

Awesome video. Got me thinking of ordering one of those stock ponds instead of a pool. And I'd keep the girls sign off, super adorable!

[@SCFishKeeping]

I would HIGHLY recommend a stock tank over the pool. Right now the stock tanks are much cheaper too. More durable, longer lasting, less chance of popping!

[@armouredjester1622]

Man, this just makes me want a mini pond with crabs and stuff in it

[@armouredjester1622]

I like that "every fish is a keeper." Just the other day I went to PetSmart looking for some catfish. They didn't have the specific species I was after, but they did have three otocinclus. One of them did not look good in their tank and I was worried about losing him if I brought him home. Not even 48hrs in my tank, and he's already looking perfectly healthy, if a little skinny.

[@lisamermod3018]

You should use your fish water to grow your vegetables. It’s an aqua phonics method and it speeds up the growth and produces vegetables about five times. It’s normal growth as that way you’re using your recycled water for a benefit for yourself.

[@stellarlivingstoned]

I didn't like you at first... then I started seeing all the wild maneuvers that you pull and... I like you lmao

[@Tygor3533]

Damn it’s like Christmas morning seeing an SC video in my recommend!!! Be careful keeping yourself musky with tank mates, especially catfish. I lost my last musky because he tried to eat a channel cat that was nearly the same size. Problem was the catfish spine got caught in its Gill so it couldn’t spit out the catfish and perished. Sucks too, bc I just got home too late to save him by minutes. Can’t wait for more vids. Do one on a big filtration set up for pool pond. I’m setting one up soon as I can finish painting my basement.

[@SCFishKeeping]

That's good to know!! Right now the bullhead has the size advantage but I'll move him out of here soon!

[@DyslexicYoda]

In my opinion you should change out your pool pond for a stock tank. The reason why is because you have a billion years with the stock tank, where as the pool pond is only good for a few and the darker color of the stock will make your fish look better. Totally dig your work. Appreciate ya brother.

[@SCFishKeeping]

I agree! I've actually considered swapping that pool out for 2 more of these tanks. They're awesome!

I see that you used 2 sponge filters in that 300 gallon black tank, but you never did specify what kind or size in the video. Sorry if this is a newbie question, I’ve just been looking at bigger tanks 3 to 600 gallons and seen quite a few people using these black plastic tanks and small kid pools. Just trying to figure out adequate filtration needed without breaking the bank. Thanks
