Hi. I have watched and admired your channel for a couple of months now. I live in the UK and will be setting up a Malawi and Victoria Peacock and Hap tank in the next couple of months. I will be getting a 550 Litre aquarium with 2 FX6 filters. Do you have any suggestions for stocking level? Thank you. Keep up the great work 😊

Always makes me want to fly over to visit these shows, I’ll come over when they get you doing a talk at the show Kaity 😊 My merch arrived! I’ve not tried it on yet as just recovering from surgery but soon 🎉

[@Kaityscichlids]

Hahaha, it is definitely one of the MANY reasons Australia is a great place to visit :D And that's so awesome to hear that your Merch arrived, I hope you love it! I hope you recover well from your surgery and get to try it soon :)

Thanks that’s really neat see, I just added cichlids to my 40 gallon breeder love them.

[@Kaityscichlids]

That's awesome to hear 😊

[@sirwilliam7988]

Omg. Those tanks were so beautiful. I would definitely have to leave the credit cards at home. I would be in so much trouble if not. Love it Kaity😘

[@Kaityscichlids]

Hahaha, that is so true!! Thankfully I was in a rush to get to the airport so I didn't get a chance to linger and buy anything lol. But you could definitely spend up at these shows. And thank you heaps :)

Another awesome vlog Kaity. Love ya work. Beautiful as always...

[@Kaityscichlids]

Thank you so much!! I appreciate it :D

[@max.0328]

Hello kaity It seems to me your fame is opening doors, seeing you were allowed to have a look around at that event a day before it opened.😄 I enjoyed the tour, watching the stalls ,the innovations and the scapes.especially the one with the blue acaras!(I think they are becomming my favourite fish).and as always the presentation!👌

[@Kaityscichlids]

I absolutely love the blue acaras too! They are such gorgeous fish. And thank you so much :) I'm glad you enjoyed seeing the show, I was definitely very lucky that the Pet Show was kind enough to organise coming in the day early since I couldn't make it for the weekend because of my flight to the US. I'm soooo glad I got to see it this year in Brisbane!

[@sharpygsxr]

Thanks for the tour Kaity, so sad i dont get to see shows like this near me, altho maybe my wallet is happy i dont :) In the bit where you wer etalking about the little stand for the test kit vials, i just use a bit of cut filter foam you can easily ut little holes to hold the vials plus dont need to worry about spills. Safe trip to USA!

[@Kaityscichlids]

LOL it is definitely for the best for your wallet haha! And that is actually a great idea, I think I'm going to have to do that. I think I actually bought a 3D printed stand from MAD Aquariums a little while back but I completely forgot about it. I'll have to try find it... And thank you heaps :D

[@stoneysscapes7544]

This reminded me of the 1st time you had someone doing the filming for you and I don't remember if it was @ this event or something similar , and it seems like it was 2 years ago but my memory was a bit better not that long ago but I think it's great to see you front and center wherever you are. Hopefully it will be a huge turnout for the show this weekend and I think it's pretty awesome to see OASE having a great display especially since this year they didn't have anything at Inter Zoo Global Pet Expo or AQUASHELLA in Dallas. Speaking of that it would be awesome if you could get the time to see one of the three AQUASHELLAS and pick up where you left off and be a little bit more of a vacation and spend some time in NYC and the Niagra Falls on to the gorgeous New England and my favorite place in the world is The Lodge @ Lake Placid and Middlebury Vermont @ The Waybury Inn 🤗 Take care Kaity and great seeing what I think is the best channel for bringing people and aquariums together . 💚💙🇦🇺🇨🇦🇺🇸

[@Kaityscichlids]

Oh yes it was!! That was actually not too long ago, that was back in November last year filming in Sydney with Bodgie :) Thank you so much, I'm glad you enjoyed the video! I hope so too, it's so awesome having these shows especially since we don't have many aquarium shows in Australia. I would absolutely LOVE to get to visit Aquashella one day. Maybe next year...

[@Bens-Aquatic-Fish]

It was my birthday 2 days ago and I ordered some merch from you! Excited for it 🙂. I would love to meet you one day also❤

[@Kaityscichlids]

Awwww, that's so awesome to hear! Happy Birthday for 2 days ago :D I hope you love the Merch :) And one day hopefully!!

[@nitesh_am]

Loved the video. Always wanted a marine tank but was uncertain due to the maintenance. Looking forward to getting a marine tank set-up now.

[@Kaityscichlids]

Thank you!! That is awesome to hear you're going to give it a go :) I think there's so much you can do with marine tanks, I would like to try it again myself one day

[@75keg75]

15:54 shallow tanks with shell dwellers 😍

[@johnwoodall3791]

As someone called I think Chris said, He can imagine you in bed Surrounded by Fish Plushies & I would say Probably have a Fish Tank in your Room as well & the Ambient Sounds of that which you hear at one of those Tourist Aquariums such as Sea World Etc. Explained Really Well. Done in a Truly Concise Manner & Informative, it's a Credit to yourself. Well done Kaity ... Sincerely John.

[@Kaityscichlids]

Hahaha, that is so funny!! When I was growing up I always had fish tanks in my room :) Unfortunately no fish plushies though. Maybe I will need to start a collection lol. Thank you heaps again for the kind words John :)

I wish we had a fish expo in Adelaide! 😭 we might have to take a trip sometime😊

[@Kaityscichlids]

You definitely should!! They visit Melbourne and Sydney too 😊

[@7Makowski7]

Good video with lots of cool tanks. Unfortunately it looks like one of the electric blue Acara has ich. They are one of my favorite fish! Hopefully they can treat it appropriately and keep them healthy

[@Kaityscichlids]

I should have mentioned what happened with that! I believe that is the one that had jumped out, and it was a bit beaten up/dried out a bit from being on the ground, which is why it looked like that

[@7Makowski7]

Yikes! Hope it recovers!

[@PhillipWhite-uz3wu]

Oh cool. My sister would like something like that. She has seven tanks full.

[@Kaityscichlids]

Oh she would absolutely love this then!!

[@jimb6117]

Didn't even know this was on it's a shame you didn't mention it last video, we don't hear about these shows up here in Toowoomba till after the fact.

[@JustTruth-dt9uy]

❤Your every vlog adds to the knowledge I want to ask you that all these fishes you show are from your own country or are you imported from some other country?

[@Kaityscichlids]

Awww, thank you! 🙏🏻 I believe that it's a bit of a mix. We are allowed to import some types of fish like African Cichlids, but there are some types we can't like certain species of Pleco and pea puffers

[@JustTruth-dt9uy]

@@Kaityscichlids what you export own 🐟

[@Thedude8450]

Does this show come to Adelaide too??

[@Kaityscichlids]

Not at the moment I don't believe! I think it is just Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane, but hopefully they will expand :)

[@Thedude8450]

@@Kaityscichlids Hope so too because im just getting into the hobby of aquariums and would love to go to a show like this right here in Adelaide

[@unsocialbutterfly5760]

Wow, the pet show in Brisbane is wayyyy better than in Melbourne 😮 Dymax was here, but not with tanks set up like that, and a much smaller kiosk. They did have the coloring station though, but you couldn’t buy any of the products, which seemed pointless, as all the other stalls sold their products. I am convinced that the best Aquarium stores and shows are in Sydney and Queensland, sucks for me 🥴

[@Kaityscichlids]

Hahaha ohhh noooo!! I visited the Melbourne one in 2023, and it was great in terms of the aquascapes, there was a lot more tank setups there. But the Brisbane one had soooo much stuff for sale, but not quite as many display tanks

[@unsocialbutterfly5760]

@@Kaityscichlids I must have missed that one. I will have to keep better tabs on Melbourne pet shows.

[@d-godfather]

is the high visibility vest mandated on an expo like that in Australia?

[@Kaityscichlids]

Only for the setup! This was on the Friday before they opened the show to the public 😊 I think it was just a requirement of the convention centre

[@davidglass914]

Hi kaity. I would like to say that I love all of your videos and contents. I have been watching for about 6 months or so. I am into African cichlids also. I have lost all of my African cichlids about 10 of them. I am hoping I want to get back into fish keeping and I want to get African cichlids again. I also would like to get Oscars. I love them. I need to find a place to live so I can get all the fish I want. I live in an apartment but need to find a place by December so I can keep fish. I think you said you like Oscars in this video. Would you get Oscars again? Thank you for your videos and I will keep watching.

[@juliaforsyth8332]

How do they keep the Starfish alive in artificial salt tanks because they are filter feeders?

[@Kaityscichlids]

That's a good question, I actually have no idea :O Maybe someone from the Pet Show can answer here

[@aaaquascaping9774]

why dont I hear about these events any earlier. DO you anything about fukada is going I would like to see his work?

I'm actually not too sure about that :O

[@broman6662]

Never thought that you would be the one helping Joey cover up that his "new" plywood tank that "Just" has been finished actually was finished a year ago. I wouldnt care if he was honest about why he hasnt posted it IN A YEAR when I have subrscribed to him since he started his channel about 18 YEARS AGO!!! Him lying to his long time fans hurt! And you helped him lying!!! Dont care if you didnt dare to call him out on it since he is the nr1 aquarium youtuber, its still a lie. Bye Kaity, I loved your channel but you supporting a lier like Joey is too much for me. And yeah, I followed you since the start too. Bye!

[@Kaityscichlids]

Sorry that it has upset you 😮 I'm honestly not too sure what you're talking about, but I respect that's your decision

[@broman6662]

@@Kaityscichlids Yeah im probably the only one in the world seeing that the plywood tank that "he just finished" was actually finished when you visited him a year ago. I would have accepted it if he just said that for some reason he hadnt have time to post about his bould of that tank. But his fans has been waiting for months for him building that tank. And in this video it shows several times that the tank was built and running when you visited him A YEAR AGO! Joey has disrespected his fans, and you helped him. And wierd enough nobody else then me seems to see that
