Fish Tank Setup In Just ONE Day! WEIRD Fish Added!

[@markkeenan1140]

I don’t have any fish but just enjoy your videos. I actually came here from Millikan fishing’s channel over a year ago and have enjoyed your videos sharing your hobby. Thank you Zac.

When I was a child (around 7 or 8yrs old) my first tank was for crayfish. When I was 12yrs old I had cut other people's grass to save up to buy my friends 10gal setup with tropical fish. Then I gotten the idea to keep native fish instead of tropical fish. Keeping native fish and having a reef setup has been my favorite aquarium setups

[@tanklifeapparel]

Smiley is adorable! Love the message that you give of every fish being special :)

[@kg2nc]

I agree 👍with you I always say special fish is for special people. Definitely let us know how the fish is doing. Thanks for sharing the video.

[@kyle2567]

Shoutout to the workers at that petsmart for having an idea of what they doing love the goldfish sign.as

[@juriejacobs1363]

I grew up in South FL (in the 60's-70's) and had a canal running through our property... my first tank was a 10 gallon with whatever I could get out of the canal... I had a filter & a light but used canal water to fill it. There was a tropical fish farm not far from us and during the rainy season or big storm, their inground ponds would overflow with fish getting into the canals, roads etc.... I caught beautiful fish right out of the flooded streets!! Also turtles, crayfish, mudpuppies.......

[@doghows]

My first tank was the 29gal combo... my mom bought for me for Christmas... i proceeded to put 2 small rock bass and a small bluegill in... those were my first fish..

[@Lorienhal]

I myself live in the west maple area! It's so awesome seeing someone from the local area on KZbin! I used to have several tanks, had to let them go due to space, but my wife and I are moving soon and ill be getting the basement or garage (whichever is bigger) for new tanks! Wish I could find you on Facebook to just chat every once in a while

[@the1sdelung]

My first tank was a 10 gallon tank with 4 koi…. Now they’re in a 800 gallon pool pond in my basement and I’m up to 7 tanks 😅

3 gallon with day old bullhead catfish from the ditch, that is why I love bullheads. Also why I buy my fish as tiny as possible to watch them grow. Great video.

[@bonniew1992]

Very cool idea, Zac. Love the name Smiley, hope it thrives in your care (as I know it will). For friends, Cardinal tetras and some Corys. Have fun, and glad to see you experimenting with live plants!

[@BikerDaveBlade]

My first was a 100 Ltr with Fan Tail Guppies: man they can breed !

[@shanemcneill178]

Love API! Used them exclusively since I've gotten back into fish keeping

[@erickays831]

This is inspiring me to get another tank! Been fishless for the last 2 years, but may need to fix that before summer is over 😊

[@dubnasty212]

That black and white spotted is a blue blushing Angel. They get big for an angel

[@drewsta005]

Love the Angel Tank! Nickname suggestion: Sly (it has a sly grin). API products rock! Thanks for showcasing them. Great video as always Zac!

[@klinatoc]

20 long with mollies and sword tails. Now I have a koi pond and a 20 long with mollies and platties for my son. 25 years apart. Kept Africans for awhile and will again once I can find a place to fit a 200 gal + tank.

[@benflannigan9865]

Adorable little derp mouth angel fish. 😊

[@audrameyer9558]

Started with a Betta in a 5 gallon. I now have a fishroom with 28 aquariums. MTS is a real thing!!!

[@krisregensberg8063]

Love your tanks, that I don't have to worry about. Thanks

[@jons3064]

Good lookin tank! I’ve always loved angel fish….Thanks API 👍👍 My first tank was a 20 gallon for my Red Belly Piranha named Spaz. 🐟

[@matthewgambrel568]

Your with api now great stuff man love there products!

[@spacecowboy107]

As its a small tank Zac how about some tetras, Cory cats, maybe a group of tiger barbs and danios so you have movement at all levels of the tank.

[@relevantreptiles]

Love the videos bro keep it up and family and fish how can you go wrong

[@relevantreptiles]

My first was a stream native tank with rainbow darters, log perch mosquito fish, and a few fathead minnows. Oh the old school days

[@SCFishKeeping]

Appreciate you buddy! That native stream tank sounds awesome! Rainbow darters are one hell of a fish to start out a hobby with! 😍

[@relevantreptiles]

@@SCFishKeeping not a problem bub. And I enjoy the video's and how personable you are to the ppl who watch. Yea rainbows got a good little personality.🤙

[@Fishlover1616]

Hey, I'm a little late here, but you could always name him Joker due to the mouth almost being like a big side ways grin. First tank, 1.5 gallon hex tank for assorted tetras. Hope you and the growing family are doing well!

[@amufdivinsquatch]

Technically, my first ever aquarium was one of those Aquababies cubes when they were a big thing. I had the fish first and then picked up a dwarf frog and he lived for like 8 years. The first tank I ever set up myself was a 5 gallon that I had a betta in. It just kind of grew from there. I had a 35 gallon for a while that housed a trio of red belly piranhas and then convict cichlids. Then I got curious about keeping native NA fish and now I have a 40 with 2 grass pickerel, a 125 with a warmouth, black bullhead, and walleye, and 625 gallon pond with a grass pickeral, 2 yellow perch, a rock bass, 2 redear sunfish, 1 bluegill, and 1 hybrid bluegill that somehow tripled in size in less than 2 months.

[@caseypeploe1273]

You got a video of the 625??

[@peterskoiandgoldfish8261]

My first fish a long time ago were goldfish and I still keep them to this day! Even started a KZbin channel about them.

[@noutgeurts1860]

My first tank was a 20 gallon community tank, now I have 8 tanks and within the next year I plan on getting 3 more. I got my first tank a little more than a year ago

[@wisconsinaquatics]

[@nathanbrunson3070]

Zack.... I don't know if I would call the fish smiley, there's no mouth to smile. My first tank was when I got out of the Marine Corps and I went to a garage sale and picked up a 10 gallon it took me 10 hours to figure out how to put it together that was 1986 and I never stopped I still have my pond in the backyard with the bluegill in the free largemouth bass that I'm now feeding them tilapia and shrimp

I wonder if flatfish like halibut first evolved as a special-needs mutation that became adapted into a specialty body type.
