Bettas aren't ready yet! Maybe 2 more weeks

How did u start actually selling to wholesale stores? I’m raising some angle fish but the stores around me don’t want to give me cash for them they only want to trade fish

[@nicholaslopez6384]

Thanks for the video

[@KeepingFishSimple]

You have to treat yourself like a business. Go in asking for cash with a wholesale list

[@ravenravero8059]

Once again. Awesome Video!!! This has to be my Favourite vlog so far :)

[@KeepingFishSimple]

Really appreciate that!

[@melissaturner1737]

Can you do an update on your hillstream colony

[@leeltastic7889]

I bred these fish about 1 month ago and the fry are doing great. They are in a tank only with some rocks, a filter and a air stone. Very easy to breed.

[@KeepingFishSimple]

That’s great to hear

[@sagaracharekar7839]

what do you feed them?

I have 3 loaches in a tank with goldfish do you think it’s still possible to breed or would they eat the fry

[@KingsAquariumsAndAntWorld]

Awesome video buddy, the discus situation is not your fault mate, you do a fantastic job in looking after all the fish in your fish room. Please don't get to disheartened. Keep ur head up. Do you ship to the UK?

[@edyzoncolipano7106]

love your videos!!! just wandering about those eucalytus leaves? are they perfectly safe for fish? because ive seen alot of them here in the parks. thinking puting some on my comunity tank. cheers!!

Thanks!

[@jhaquatics1256]

Wicked video, also I got a question for anyone that can help my bettas are doing all the breeding process and passing out but my female is not dropping eggs any idea why thanks

[@mattkinsella9856]

Looking forward to seeing how your hillstream loach breeding goes. I've tried once before as a little side project with a setup similar to yours but I have a feeling I had all males and only had 4 or 5 which maybe wasn't enough. I also wondered if my rock work had too many large gaps and the adults and other fish could get in and eat the eggs and/or fry. I'll be watching closely and if you have success I might give mine another go with more fish this time.

[@KeepingFishSimple]

I’ll let you know. Hopefully I’m very successful

[@mattkinsella9856]

@@KeepingFishSimple I actually bit the bullet and managed to find 6 (that's all they had left). I went EVERYWHERE looking for them and only found one place. I don't know if they are just so popular they sell quickly or they are getting more rare. They weren't cheap either. I'll be putting them in a setup on their own and try to breed them. This time I'll be using a lot more pebbles and rocks as that seems to be the key from what I've seen and read lately. Looking forward to more videos from you on your experience with them ☺️

[@hookdonfish1880]

There is a discus farm that treats with Potassium permigate on the regular to help with the water and disease in raising the fry, its aloso why you see a lot of discus keepers do it on the regular to help maintain there adults also. i use a does of 2G to 500L. becasue its an oxidizing agent it can drop and effect eh PH. so best to keep hydrogen peroxide on hand to neatralise it if the fish appear to be struggling to breathe when treating . when its pink its active . after about15-20mins when it turns brown it becomes inactive and you can add the hydrogen peroxide to neatralise thebrown colouring in the tank, followed by a water change

[@racerofrc]

Suggestion; if you make a video about Hillstream Loaches; at least have something about them. Very disappointed with a 15 minute video that only shows a pile of rocks.

[@bvg3041]

Awesome video! Where did you get your sand from? Bunnings? Cheers

[@KeepingFishSimple]

Bunnings yes

Why are your angels have red gills is that normal?

[@seedlesspumpkin3654]

@@KeepingFishSimple I think it made everyone’s day, I completely lost it when that happened

[@azza7717]

how big are your tanks?

[@alanpitkeathly3055]

Use biocil sensitive or potassium permanganate for the gill flukes if you can get them sorted out the rest should be fine. If you use potassium permanganate be careful but you will need to do it as quick as possible

[@KeepingFishSimple]

Thank you Alan

[@alanpitkeathly3055]

@@KeepingFishSimple no problem just like to see you doing well. Don’t let this get you down it’s just a part of Discus breeding that you will learn from. They usually start to die off due to flukes around 14 days old. Keep us updated on how the rest are doing. If you use potassium permanganate use the liquid as it’s easier to use

Love the videos but I would like to give some constructive criticism this video is supposed to be about hillstream loach breeding and there was not a hillstream loach in the video
