What fish are you breeding outdoors this year? let me know down below!

[@kenjiro2676]

Rice fish, they overwintered well for me and are producing fry daily. I am going to let my white clouds overwinter this year. I am in california, so my winters are more mild, no snow but ocasional frosts for only a few days.

[@chadhaley9760]

Molly,platy, swordtails

[@netandjer7024]

wow you have a great outdoor set up. love those white clouds

[@JoeyJacobs18]

Love your greenhouse, lot of diversity. Your in dept explination of everything is nice from the rotting leaves to the baskets. Thank you, very informative. Will like to see by end of season how you catch all those babies out of those big IBC totes.👍🙂👍

[@jeffkane4391]

Looking forward to the fall harvest 😁 definitely exited to see the outcome of your system. 😊

[@TazawaTanks]

That’s a pretty nice greenhouse setup that you have. Glad to see that the specimen containers are working well for you.

[@LushSaltyAquariums]

Lot of pregnant fish going to the greenhouse!

[@LushSaltyAquariums]

Nice system, brother!

[@ColorzGuppyFarm]

great setup and idea. I would certainly use a larger rectangular basket since that looks rather small for them.

[@gregjonesonline]

It was the largest laundry basket that had holes on the bottom, I may need to get a large rectangle one and cut my own holes

[@markfranklin8831]

The your way of multi acclamations 💯💗

[@-AndrewR]

👍🏻👍🏻

[@TMAquatics]

Fun project. How have your 50 gal lowboys held up? Any issues with them?

[@gregjonesonline]

One lowboy had a small leak so I swapped it out, zoomed had some QC issues early on but have started applying silicone thicker now. It would be worth inspecting before buying to ensure thick beads of silicone

[@14pedro415]

So if one tote crashes or gets sic or a disease they all get it cuz it’s one system connected

[@gregjonesonline]

Yes correct. These have been QTed indoors for 6 months. Could it happen? Yes. Hasn't happened in 5 years of greenhouse life or 10 years of fish room life yet for perspective.

[@chia_pet7121]

21:35 What kind of bug is that? 🐉🪰⁉

[@gregjonesonline]

looks like a dead crane fly, tons of flies get into the greenhouse and get baked to death

[@chia_pet7121]

@@gregjonesonline kind of looked like a dragonfly. I found two dragonfly crisps on a pond last week.

[@gregjonesonline]

@@chia_pet7121 I have only seen a few dragonfly enter the greenhouse and they immediately want to get out they never land
