[@ShellBell538]

Thank you.....For taking the duckweed out, goldfish are huge overeaters, and will try to eat anything non-stop this is what leads to so many problems. Not overfeeding is key to goldfish keeping. I think the tank looks beautiful with just the rock formation.

[@mor3frame]

i wouldnt keep the pleco in there but thats just my two cents, heard some bad things about it

[@Marauder99991]

MD and Matt getting distracted by how cool random fish are is one of my favorite things. Heh.

[@PaulZyCZ]

Matt needs to setup a camera trap on that tank... although that may cause long ceasefire among shelldweller males. :D

[@christinaiscurious6774]

I'd bet money if you chucked some weighted Cabomba in there (I saw you say you had a hard time growing it before) it would grow like a weed since they produce so much nitrate. It just soaks it up like mad and grows wild and while they'll play in it and pick at it, they can't really pick it apart and make a mess with it. I live in Japan and they sell it as "the goldfish plant" lol. Cute little guys, best of luck with em!

[@christinaiscurious6774]

Side note - if you want to see them go wild boil/microwave a little piece of broccoli (not too soggy it'll make a mess if it's soft) and hang it on a suction hook inside. It's hilarious and keeps them busy for hours and you'll end up with a bare white stem left xD

[@bluegreybaby]

100% understand your reservations about naming them. I have turtles and frequently house them with minnows and feeder goldfish. (Good for the diet and to keep them active). One goldfish must have bonded with one of my turtles because they lived peacefully in harmony for over 3 years. It was great for me because the fish would help keep the turtle tank clean. Until one day, my turtle (what I suspect was purely out of instinct) nipped him behind the head along the spine pretty bad. I thought he was a goner. I don't like watching them suffer, and selfishly I didn't want to have to clean up the mess in the turtle tank, so I immediately scooped him up put him in a hospital tank and nursed him back to health and now he lives in his own tank. I named him Spartacus, because I figured if he lived that long fighting, he deserves both a name and his freedom!

[@jordanleighwheatley]

That's an adorable wholesome ending

[@imgonnakate]

Best of luck my dude. Ranchus are essentially the pug of fish, and I wouldn't be surprised if they developed some sort of sickness eventually, regardless of if they're kept in pristine conditions. Definitely a good move to go with the round rocks--if there's a way to get hurt by something sharp, a ranchu will find it lol. They're like an amoeba with gills. Not a thought behind those little eyes

[@zafishguy5166]

Round rocks are always a good choice with goldfish. I think it started with bubble eyes then people started doing it with other goldfish.

[@Draconem97]

I'm really glad you specified the sizing and upgrading 🥰 its a very common misconception they grow to the size of the tank and that lots of people don't put them into the right size tanks they need.

[@laurelland]

I would LOVE a super quick “hardscape 101” video going over the common different stones/pebbles (seiryu, dragon, etc) and wood used in the hobby! Being new to the hobby and binging all your videos, the different types of hardscapes are fun to learn about but also a bit overwhelming lol 😅. Different properties of the stones, pH or erosion considerations over time, if they are available in a hardware store or more ~speciality~ stones. Things like that. Love your videos - thanks for all the advice, honesty, and really positive attitude!

[@oftheHowl]

If you're looking to learn in order to aquascape you'll always be better off researching on Google, KZbin never has enough information in each video, even if you watch a bunch from different channels. They all operate assuming you have a basic understanding but miss out on explaining important info sometimes, so it's best to just do some reading online.

[@Stephen-jw8ci]

i think this tank would definitely benefit from a monstera or peace lily, the roots would make the scape more intricate and it would of course help with all that goldfish waste

[@sublimelime247]

I think he's taking it slow and steady. It seemed like he was really attached to the previous Ranchus and losing them must have been heartbreaking. It's better to start off slow and steady and introduce things one at a time to also learn what could be working and what is of concern, no?

[@ReneesZooTube]

Gulping air as the issue for swim bladder is basically a myth. Duckweed is an excellent food for Goldfish. They should be fine eating it from the surface. It's also alive and growing, so it won't rot in the tank like leftover bits of that frozen spinach might. I've fed my fancy Goldfish a combination of floating pellets, sinking pellets, and dried seaweed for over a year now and he's doing great, no swimming issues. Wishing you all the best with your new Goldies 💖

[@vortex-11b]

It isn’t a myth, that’s why you shouldn’t feed them flakes

[@ReneesZooTube]

@@vortex-11b No, you shouldn't feed them flakes because it just makes a big mess and disintegrates before they can eat much of it, which leaves it to pollute the tank. It has nothing to do with them gulping air at the surface for the flakes.

[@vortex-11b]

@@ReneesZooTube Gulping air is one of the main reasons for dropsy and swim bladder issues, and considering he fed his goldfish flakes and they all got died from that, that proves my point. He also appears to be overfeeding them by quite a lot, unless that was just for the video.

I’m so happy you decided to give them another chance. I have also struggled with keeping fancy goldfish, but to be fair they were also the first fish I learned how to keep because they were gifted to my family. I would love to see you put some hardier stems or some moss, but I understand keeping it simple for cleanliness. Maybe consider adding some really nice houseplants to the top to keep it clean inside?

[@dazzac2708]

I remember back in the day, the MD Oranchu Crew, so REALLY looking forward to watching these babies grow up.

[@Aexzer88]

MD, gulping air to have swim bladder disease is a Myth, I have been feeding mine duckweed 2X to 3X a week with all floating pellets for a long time and not a single problem. Besides, duckweed is healthy for them that prevents Swim bladder infection and intensifies their color. The maim cause of their SBI is temperature and over feeding. Fancy Goldfish temp is on the higher end compare to their pond cousins. Ideal will be around 75 to 78F. Also feed them lightly daily or every other day and weekly water change of 50% and they’ll stay healthy. Fun video and thanks for making contents for us.

[@mrek2068]

Brilliant video. I've kept tropical fish for 40+ years since I was a small kids, but this video and your other goldfish related videos has inspired me to research and possibly keep them. Thank you so much. Roll on 2023.

[@GoldfishCorner]

MD, fancy goldfish like Ranchu need much more filtration and water space. The hangover filter is not enough. Your setup may work for natural body-shaped goldfish like comment or bristol shubunkin. As your Ranchu grows, you need a bigger tank and stronger filter like a sump. Good luck.

[@marc6340]

I had some of these (well, I think we called them Moore's) when I was in my 20s. They were about the size of a quarter when I got them, and when I gave them away, they were as big as my hand! I used an undergravel filter (because, as you said, they are dirty!) and when I would clean their tank the water came out black! On a plus note, I would keep the dirty water in a 5 gallon bucket and use it to water the houseplants. They loved it!

[@dr-k1667]

Best of luck MD with your newest additions. I think you've learned so much since Amber and Crew as well as made new friends with fish experts that are willing to help you be an even better fish keeper. You always look out for the health of you fish and plants so they are in great hands IMHO.

What's amazing about this filter as well is that you can put plants in them. Adding a peace lilly in the hang on back filter for example can help reduce the amount of water changes you need to do

[@cetinagar]

MD. I got the Ranchu also. I breed them also. They need to be kept at 18-20Celsius. As I recall your room is at 24(?). They can handle these temperatures, but for a short amount of time. Higher temperature means higher metabolism and a higher chance of obstipation. Put a small ventilator on it (those ones that you can connect to a usb outlet).

[@MDFishTanks]

Room is at 22 - 23 this time of year. Yeah I've ordered one of those which I think should bring the tank down to about 20.

[@TupacShakur69]

many ranchu breeders especially from places like Thailand recommend keeping ranchus in higher temps. 24-28c. The higher temps helps the ranchus with their digestive systems and their overall health

[@cetinagar]

@@TupacShakur69 usually, those higher temperatures are just to grow them as quick as possible for sale on the other hand Thailand weather is always above 25C ;). Keeping goldfish at high temp. drastically shortens there live. For breeding and growing out, I put them at 25C. For keeping them at 18C. Never had issues and they are as big as a grapefruit.

[@vortex-11b]

@@cetinagar but keeping them at a lower temp will also drastically increase their odds of developing swim bladder issues, and in the last video he said he’d be feeding them flakes as well, which will really cause swim bladder issues, so keeping them at 23 is perfectly fine, preferably a little higher

@@vortex-11b do you keep ranches? And breed them? Or are you just citing “internet-knowledge”? Just curios.

[@NyssaMysteria]

When I had my first goldfish, it was a black moor and he grew to be easily 6" long and lived 10 years before swim bladder got to him. I fed him frozen deshelled peas to keep it at bay for a really long time, they love them!

I’m so excited for Ranchu Crew 2.0! Of course the tank looks great but let me recommend bare bottom. I have tons of plants in with my huge fancy goldfish I planted them in rock wool with root tabs in terracotta pots. Amazon Swords and Crinum Calimastratum are gorgeous and they don’t eat them. Also Marimo moss balls that they roll along the bottom of their 1020 liter tank. I also created rock sculptures with marine epoxy and silicone. They are just too dirty for substrate and then getting an impaction isn’t worth the risk. They love cooked veggies. Generally anything green that I have for dinner I blanch and give them some. Also Repashy Gold gel food is amazing if you have access to it! I make it up about once a week and mix in pellets and veggies. They go crazy for it.

[@Elizabeth-lj2vv]

I never get over how you can take a few rocks and turn them into something beautiful. There are some easy to grow plants that goldfish don’t tend to eat. The tougher plants like Java fern and the larger Anubias varieties should be safe, especially since you are offering spinach, since they will definitely prefer that. They also like zucchini! I also feel like the fish would pop a lot more with a black background, but that’s just an aesthetic preference, of course. I also like the idea another commenter had about adding a monstera plant.

[@cadensadkovich]

This tank looked absolutely amazing. But I do see some problems. I've had experience of growing baby ranchu and oranda goldfish in almost exactly the same sized tank, and it's going to be difficult. for you. For the amount of bio load these babys make, I'm almost 100% you will need more filtration. At least a large spongefilter. And I strongly suggest getting a very good bennificial bacteria colony going before adding these cuties. There ammonia levels can jump significantly overnight without a good cycle in the tank. But I wish you luck man

[@craigsmart1986]

I was thinking the same, that tiny internal filter isn't going to cope.

[@QueenArtAquaticDesign]

Simple idea, very extraordinary.

[@DjPsYcOtIc]

Good looking build there :) Glad to see you back at goldfish. Your Ranchu will move that ring very quickly and the duck weed will be gone in a day or so any way and it won't hurt them. Also this breed of fish is quite poor in general, if you really want good success you should start with Comet goldfish, there are a lot more hardier and enjoy the warmer room all year round temperatures you have. I cannot wait to see your face and reactions when these grow up, they get big, they will move your rocks around bang in to them, you name it :) oh and they get massive, I have had to put all of our fish in a 6ft tank now, as 22 years we had our oldest goldfish for and she was massive by the end. Now we have got her baby's and one of them is 8 now and absolutely massive he is about a foot long easy, he smashes the place up when he is mating, so be prepared if they are healthy they last a long time and get very big! Thanks, for taking the time to document and share. Cheers.

Hello MD. I would recommend only feeding bloodworms a few times a week as it is high in protein which could cause constipation. Also your daily pellets should be sinking.

Good luck and they're super cute it's hard not to get attached to our water pets. Have you looked at Dr. Novak's channel on anoxic filtration? He uses kitty litter and an undergravel filter plate to complete the nitrogen cycle for his goldfish, because apparently fancy goldfish are very sensitive to nitrates so he developed a system to help them live many years without the problems they usually have. Anoxic filtration just helps maintain very good water quality just like the natural processes found at the bottom of the ponds and lakes in nature. Vary good as always and looking forward to seeing these guys mature. Cheers! 🤗

Would love to see you do a video where you start with plants that need to grow in, the plants you use would cost hundreds of dollars and are not easily available everywhere - would be cool to see you do a tank that uses smaller, beginner plants and update over time on it growing to look like your most of your tanks look when you build them out now...

I have a black ranchu and they're known for their bad eyesight (they're basically blind) and I trained it to know it's feeding time by knocking at the glass twice and it will go to one corner of the tank and I'll feed the other goldfish at the other corner and then feed the black one in it's corner.

Two things i gotta say, First, u cant be as lazy with this tank as you are with the others, frequent water change is a must not just to dilute the ammonia, nitrite, and nitrates but also because goldfish produces growth inhibitor hormones that polute the water, if you wanna have optimal growth, water change. Second thing, the back side of that intake tube might be a hazard for your pugs to get stuck, maybe attach something along the length to block access.

[@geraldoyo1]

My goldfish absolutely love broccoli! I cook it until soft then store it in the fridge.

[@PaulZyCZ]

Wouldn't a bit of tubing work the same to connect the floating ring? As duckweed goes, I'm throwing some in my large tank, blackskirt tetra and angelfish eat it. No idea, how that would cause issues to goldfish. Some food like TetraMin Granules needs to be soaked, otherwise it's like feeding baby ducks fresh rolls (fatal). Too much bloodworms is also bad, but again so is feeding fish just with flakes and pellets. I understand it's probably better to just put it away, frozen spinach is nice alternative. However some (larger) floating plants would look nice and pull the excess nutrients.

Goldfish are the best 🤗 Thanks for doing what you do, I love your channel 😘

Try feeding white mosquito larvae, its way better for their digestive system than feeding bloodworms (because of the hooks they have).

I'm so happy that you are trying a new trio of Ranchu goldfish, goldfish can be such great fun! I am partial to red cap Orandas myself, but I've kept Lionhead and Pearlscales too in my many decades of life. The fact that every year our knowledge increases where keeping pets of all kinds is concerned is very gratifying. I remember how sad you were at the loss of your goldfish, I hope they'll thrive this time. "Water Pugs" is a great description of fancy goldfish, they are as cute and friendly as Pugs are, and have the same need for specialized care and understanding.

Really nice setup. The filter must be a EU brand. Would not mind a quick look inside filters as they may not be available everywhere. Goldfish are not quite my thing but that setup looks great and I could definitely see their appeal.
