Had a few questions asking me how I set these up so here you go 😊 Hope you enjoyed the ricefish update as well! Be sure to follow me on Instagram @ryowatanabee for more pictures and updates

I wish rice fish weren't so hard to find in the US, they seem like such an easy patio pond fish!

[@claywise43]

I agree completely. For now I’m using golden white cloud minnows. It’s the best I can come up with

[@dystopianrepublic8921]

If rice fish are hard to find many types of guppies can be used in place, the most important thing is that the fish is a surface breather and remains semi small,hope this helps :)

Great vid Ryo! One substrate that I like to use with tissue culture orchids is high quality Sphagnum moss. It has anti bacterial properties and If you get the really high quality stuff (not the compressed dry Sphagnum) it will come back to life. I just wet the moss with my regular orchid water (orchid fertilizer added) and the orchid seedlings make the transition from the sterile environment to the outside world without problems. Of course with orchids you slowly (over the course of a few weeks) lower the humidity so that the leaves harden off. You're better off keeping aquarium plants at 100% humidity so that you can more easily transition them to the aquarium. Cheers, Chris

[@RyoWatanabee]

Thank you for the tip. Really appreciate that 👍👍

[@finnic7959]

@@RyoWatanabee the moss also propagates pretty quickly, especially in a setup you did with the aquatic plants or as a tray in the sun.

[@Ben-kv7wr]

Your channel was the first time I'd ever heard of rice fish and I recently found some of the blue rice fish at 3:56 ! I have some in a heavily planted vase in my room! And thank you for this video, I'm gonna multiply the heck out of the buce's I bought and then share the love with my fishkeeping friends!

Love your videos please continue to bring us more!?!!

Just took the biggest dump ever. great video. 10/10 would recommend.

[@darrylmoore5847]

I love the idea of a larger pond.

[@ruthmeow4262]

Really like the jars. I have an old 2 gal drum goldfish bowl that I am going to turn into a terrarium with Anubis, cryptocoryne and Bucephalandra.

[@kevinking7860]

Hi loved this you inspired me to make my first outdoor ricefish pond

[@JonBeechxD]

Already rocking that Uniqlo cup noodle shirt!! so cool - they sold out super fast here in Melbourne. Great video as always Ryo - can't wait to see you making your own pond one day

[@rinchyan]

You've definitely inspired me to restart on my dad's mini ponds 😤👌 it's only been a month so far so we'll see how it goes -- well definitely try out the small farms

[@michaelhagan9678]

Your positive attitude is so contagious. Would love to see the 60planted be fed the ember Tetras are so beautiful now. Muchlove from Pagosa Springs Colorado.

Green water good👍🏽

[@jesusduribe2654]

Great set up with the ponds like the idea growing our the plants 👍😎🐟🐠

I used old salad/meat containers for my grow out bins. I do the same with my monte carlo, and weeping moss.

[@ronaldsnijders7597]

Nice done👌🏻 greetings from the Netherlands 😁

[@youngengineerjv6689]

This is my first video from your channel . Thanks YT for the recommendation. More power Ryo! Road to 100k.

[@kamilcyk]

I really like what you doing there. After seeing this, I will definitely try to set up some simple Wabi-Kusa. For a start in a small plastic container with Bucephalandra or Anubias, perhaps. I am curious how it will grow for me. Thanks for the inspiration!

[@alessandrodeluigi1744]

Very interesting natural aquariums

[@lextercatamio986]

Nice Japan 😍 and also your Anubias 😍

Wow it's beautiful bro

[@rahl952]

I see Nuphar japonica with the Hydrocotyle. Great plant.

[@AquariumInHand]

aquatic plants are great when they are underwater but I also like the emersed version. :)

[@Maritime-Tropical]

Hey Ryo, Love your vids! It would be nice for you to do a vid on how the grow out farms are doing. I have some Buce and plan on doing similar.

[@Hartwig870]

Ditch the fine gravel, use hydroponic ceramic media. Use a much larger, taller container.

[@cedricj6670]

5:48 sounds like a great plan!

[@ps3baws]

Agreed 👍

[@ringocasela7844]

My aquarium plant is just guppy grass n hornwort. I'm newbie :))

[@kevinking7860]

Ringo Yosep Casela stick to it lol its easy to grow lol

[@nefertariinxs]

you should make some water changes in the rice fish pond because if you only add water the water will get too hard as time goes by

[@marypaigeflynn4512]

Great video! I love watching and seeing the updates on your projects! You have been doing an amazing job. Keep up the good work! 👍🙌🌱🐟🌿🙏

Yes, so you’ll never run out :)

[@deltahoshino]

I think you should call that aquascape tank as "plants islands" 🤗

[@mitchellbrian2585]

I think I'm finally going to set up one of these rice fish mini ponds. I've watched a few of your videos on them. It doesn't seem like they require a lot of water really. Trying to pin down the mininum water volume needed.

[@VuHien2011]

hello, I have 2 suggestions 1) I would not close the lid of your containers because plants need CO2 and if you leave them in opened air, they have unlimited amount. But there is only so much CO2 in a container until the next time you open the lid again. 2) Instead of your gravel, you might try a good soil for plants.

[@AquaBenyStyle]

Very nice matter. Greetings from Poland 😉👍

[@RyoWatanabee]

Thank you 😊

[@samueluwl2952]

Loved the video, looking forward to also making content like this! Very cool that you can do a variety of projects around your house hahaha 👍🏻👍🏻

[@anthonypope8429]

hi loved the video i have an old gold fish bowl if i fill it with quartz gravel and put some anubias nana petite in it would i have to cover the bowl up with cling film and mist it every day and what that spray called that smells like mint cheers

[@tummalanarendra271]

Your videos are always encouraging love to experiment from my end. I got few questions 1. Anubias in the glass jar you added substrate of ada and what are the other fertilizers you used. I want to try from my side. 2. You are trying to propagate busifalandra In the anthracite will it grow. Kindly advice I will be starting after after your advice

[@itsnsti9020]

Wow great idea, might try it. Can i use those plants in an aquarium later? Love your garden by the way

[@BahamaLlamaCoral]

Not sure what it is about your vids but I love them! I'm not even a freshwater hobbyist! I'm curious though...

Sometimes those pots if it is terra-cotta the water can absorb into it and run out

[@jmhaddon]

Have you changed your camera? The video is super fine.

[@Aleksdraven]

I wonder do you often open that jar to exchange air? I mean that anubias need co2 to grow right?

[@geomondano2730]

I learn so much from you ♡

[@RyoWatanabee]

Thanks 😊

[@DNLKTV]

Don't know if my question will be asked after one year of this video released but I wonder how water can keep being clean from CO3 and ammonia unless you change it from time to time? Is one big plant enough to consume all the contamination fish produce?

[@aizuddinimran1307]

please do the pond. wanna see it :) :) hello from Malaysia

Wow, I'll try this dsm method. I heard about it before but didnt think it will work for epyphite plants

What volume of water in each mini pond? Are plastic planters healthy for petsmart minnows?

[@almightyJAKE17]

quick question, how many hours of light they need? is the light sunlight?

You used only Laterite to plant mini anubias and Bucephalandra?

I have never seen rice fish for sale here in Bangkok. Perhaps too hot? How do you keep birds from eating the fish? I use a noise and flasher motion detector for my outside fountain. By the way, what happen to Brownie?

[@RyoWatanabee]

It gets 40 degrees C here in the summer so I don’t think it’s because of the heat. Birds don’t really come close to the mini ponds. Browny is in Singapore with my mother

Hi what is the brand and name of the donut fish food that you give to the ricefish i would like to buy some ?

[@TheSrklop79]

Are u sure that the spray doesn't have pesticides in it?

[@johnnormanpanlasigui4375]

Hi! Was wondering how you planted the buce? Did you bury the rhizome?

[@RyoWatanabee]

No, just the roots under the soil

[@deeptangshumukherjee8164]

Can I do the same for other types of anubius ???

[@justingilbert6214]

Have you tried beta ponds? I been thinking about it

Give us an update on your arowana please

[@colefarrell5963]

Where did you get the stand you use for the planted 65?

[@RyoWatanabee]

It’s a GEX stand

[@PriaPenghuniBumi]

how many ppm of spray fertilizer is in that spray bottle

[@tummalanarendra271]

Please update the buciphalandra growth

[@jaychen2845]

How do you get rid of the excess water/fertilizer from the spray? Do you dump it out or do you air it out?

[@RyoWatanabee]

Air it out every once in a while

[@xisotopex]

where in Japan is this?

[@xisotopex]

half inground and half above ground pond

[@harrymacfarlane1931]

Love the vids 💙

[@strikeout77777]

so how much faster does this grow out of water? do you keep it emersed forever or do you eventually put it in a tank ?

[@RyoWatanabee]

Once it starts propagating, I will move some into my aquariums

[@alexanderabuan1174]

Hey buddy! I was wanting to do propagation like that but i have a question though. Once propagated that way,means its not submerged. When they are planted in a tank fully submerged are they not going ti rott?

[@RyoWatanabee]

No it won’t rot. Emersed to submerged is ok 👌 But submerged to emersed is not good

[@alexanderabuan1174]

Ryo Watanabe that's cool. Thanks. But there are some aquatic plants that are ok to slowly converting to immerse form. Like i did let my bacopa caroliniana grow out the tank when i found out the it flowers so nice.

[@henrylin6537]
