Adam C ,

[@amethysth.1913]

Adam C what is that glass thingy thats holds the fish eggs ?? Is there a place I can buy such equipment and including the fish Aquarium like yours ?

[@adamc7918]

+Amethyst H. it's called an egg tumbler. its like an incubator

[@deletedcontent3346]

Adam C hi just one question Why do the eggs stay on them

[@GlassicGamer]

It's amazing its almost like they form off the egg rather than hatch from it. When they were bouncing around on the egg sack it reminded me of a South Park episode lol. I loved how they absorbed it over time and really started showing the personality at the end :)

[@adamc7918]

+Glassic Gamer thanks for watching gamer. it is cool how they just absorb the egg

[@TheAztro0123456789]

Glassic Gamer OH LOL

[@Christophersanchez1326]

Glassic Gamer I was wondering that too about the egg.

[@adamc7918]

+Christopher Sanchez i appreciate you watching, glad you enjoyed

[@jazztinjaymzvinson3878]

you mean when randy got huge balls and he carries it with a wheel barrow?

[@Elizabeth-kittycat]

That's so cool! At first they looked like little jumping beans, and I was concerned. It was also so crazy that they absorbed the egg and it became their stomach! Thanks for sharing, really cool!

[@adamc7918]

+Elizabeth S. thank you Elizabeth I appreciate you watching. glad u enjoyed

Really great idea man. I've seen this in person a ton of times but watching like this was awesome.

[@adamc7918]

+Steve Poland Cichlids thanks Steve I appreciate you watching. I'll admit it was hard to remember every day to take a quick video

[@adamc7918]

Steve Poland Cichlids and please ignore my wife running the vacuum at 3:45

[@adamc7918]

+FearIsFunYT hi fearls, I'll be honest I have zero experience with gold fish. however there are quite a few cichlids that can be easy to breed like yellow labs for example. the saying with cichlids by some people is "to breed cichlids just add water"

[@adamc7918]

+FearIsFunYT thank you for watching. if u want to start with cichlids yellow labs and acei are great ones to start with if you are undecided on a type

[@adamc7918]

+FearIsFunYT thank you. angels are a great cichlid to keep also, not overly difficult

[@billyfishskin7735]

That was so cute! At the end they were dying to get out into the bigger tank. We have a 55 gallon tank with cichlids & a smaller tank with smaller ones. They definitely are resilient, & love how they follow if u walk by, cuz they wanna be fed lol.

[@adamc7918]

+Angela Magic Salveson thanks for watching angela

[@mrsg8996]

Angela Magic Salveson. following you is only one of the joys of caring for aggressive fish. Keep them happy and healthy, they'll do more than beg for food.

[@csis8460]

[@skyrimax887]

Adam C What do these fish do?

[@vintageroblox8032]

Skyrimax they drown

[@idontcareenoughtowriteanam605]

Vintage Roblox How do fish drown.

[@klaus8271]

I Dont Care Enough To Write A Name - the closest to 'drowning' is probably the lack of oxygen in the water due to lack of filtering/water changes. i'm no expert though, so there might be a way.

[@idontknow5832]

Never saw chickens grow in water

[@adamc7918]

+I don't know haha. aqua chickens

[@shazia_id]

Adam C What are the yellow things that were stuck to them? Why were they stuck?

[@lifeisbutadreamsodreamon]

Randomized Shazzy eggs

[@adamc7918]

+Randomized Shazzy those were the eggs. they absorb the egg as food until they can swim around and find their own food

[@danm9719]

I came here looking for a cute mammal .. but, instead i ended up staring at jumping beans for a long time Edit: hhhh im sorry i made a mistake !! pls stop attackinG mE

[@danm9719]

Adam C hmm yeah i guess 😂 but its too bad you can't pick them up ://

[@adamc7918]

+Daniella Morales you can but they wouldn't like it

[@dysonspreybar4903]

If you wanted a cute mammal than your first mistake was watching a fish related video

[@saladv3028]

Hey mammals are not the only cute animals

[@joshdburns]

They just absorb the egg into their bodies?

[@adamc7918]

+Josh B hi Josh. yes the egg is their food and is absorbed into what becomes a stomach essentially, once it is completely absorbed they begin eating normally. thank you for watching

[@joshdburns]

So awesome! Thank you for the explanation.

[@adamc7918]

[@adamc7918]

Ben Ochart I know ben, the whole process I find fascinating. thanks for watching

[@beccah8864]

Do they eat the babies?? Or grow them in there?

[@adamc7918]

+Rebecca hilliard hi Rebecca. no normally the mother holds the babies in her mouth to protect them. the mother in my tank is very young so she doesn't understand yet. she may eat them. this apparatus simulates what the mother would do

[@bluemoose5684]

+Adam C How did you get them out of her mouth?

[@adamc7918]

+Blue Moose just gently hold her in water in a small container and slightly open her mouth. the eggs just fall out. it is harmless to the mother

[@audritarr4220]

i thought the title said "child babies" and i got really confused

[@adamc7918]

[@adamc7918]

+GoovinMc they are baby fish they grow up to be around 8 inches long and turn bright blue and purple

[@mazoo16]

did those eggs just become stomachs?

[@adamc7918]

+Steven Haidinyak essentially yes. they absorb the egg until it's gone then they start eating normally

[@mouhamedsall4551]

Steven Haidinyak rightttttt

[@adamc7918]

Adam C awesome! Its a good way to do it.... my fry mostly get eaten but i get a few survive every so often. Its probably better that way as my 1 and only tank would become overstocked quite quickly. What is the species your thinking of?? Do you find the hatch rate is pretty much 100% using this method? I have a couple of my own cichlid vids on my channel if your interested to see. Cheers mate and keep up the awesome vids

[@adamc7918]

+Sim W thanks sim I'll check you out. my next video like this should be on a few weeks and will be buccochromis rhoadesii yellow. I'd say the hatch rate is around 90 percent. there are usually always a few that didn't get fertilized and just don't grow at all

Amazing how so many survive in the wild! So vulnerable for so long!

[@adamc7918]

+Geoff Saunderson honestly a majority do not make it from everything I've read

[@geoffsaunderson5766]

Adam C it's quit the epic battle isn't it, so what, a African Rift Valley cichlid may have 30 odd eggs, without them being stripped she is going to loose quit a few of those in the wild, not accounting for duds she will eat herself, then the rearing of the fry constantly under the watchful gaze of every predator in eye shot of her territory, then sub adulthood and independence. It's amazing any make it!. I refuse to buy wild caught these days, what with added pressure of human population, and the understanding of the utter miracle that takes place to get that fish too adulthood. I think it could one day be up to us aquarists to support these amazing animals in the wild and not the other way round. Sad thought isn't it!

“Sniff” they grow up so fast 😭.

[@c-los4124]

as for being a fish breeder for a while some time ago i never woulda guessed that the egg was actually their insides after they grew a little more thats mindblowing. ive bred guppies for a while and a few other kinds of fish and my favorite beta fish, for they were the most difficult i have dealt with but ive never seen this before its new for me, nice going though for getting the whole batch hatched

[@adamc7918]

+C-Los Legendary OG thanks for watching, it is an interesting process

[@c-los4124]

Adam C no problem. sometimes watching stuff like this would give people some motivation to make some hobbies and to try doing it themselves

[@eunaekim9216]

Wonderful survival rate for the baby fish!

[@lindaduncan1775]

Ive just recently begun keeping cichlids and absolutely love the hobby.Started off with just a few young ones in a 46 litre tank but am waiting for the delivery of a bigger tank now so that I can buy some more lol Ive kept guppies but pretty as they can be they dont have the characters that cichlids seem to have,theyre really interesting to watch ,thanks for posting this ,I enjoyed seeing how they start out :) Subscribed :)

[@adamc7918]

Thank you Linda I hope you enjoy my channel. I'm so glad you're excited about the hobby!

[@ashleyespinoza7415]

Omg this was absolutely amazing! 😍 I couldn't believe my eyes!!

[@adamc7918]

thanks so much for watching

[@ashleyespinoza7415]

Adam C, there's related videos here that show how to strip the cichlids of their eggs...so you HAVE to take eggs or they eat it or something?

[@adamc7918]

you don't have to take the eggs. I took the eggs becaise it was a first time mother and they usually lose the first few batches due to inexperience. but most people who try to breed fish strip them becaise then the female can get more eggs sooner

[@ashleyespinoza7415]

Adam C, I am amazed beyond belief... good stuff! 😰🤔 Reminds me off a bird I raised that had eggs, her inexperience made her unsuccessful with producing hatchlings until like the 5th or 4th batch.

[@rabbaniasamuelchaudhry7381]

[@Formoka]

This is cool. I have no idea why it interested me in the first place, but it's cool. Seems like the eggs must have nutrients in them for the babies, since they don't detach from the body and are eventually absorbed inside.

I couldnt stop laughing once I made the connection that the fry with the large egg still attached under them look exactly like those toys they use to make for cats, where its like a fake ferret looking thing attached to the battery powered ball that rolls around on its own. lmao

[@imjustoutforastroll5091]

I thought the one behind it was a reflection for a while until they were gone lol. Also its so cool how they absorb the egg membrane back into their body for nutrientd.

[@adamc7918]

haha several people have said that. thanks for watching

[@aswinkrishna5345]

it was cool... i have never seen this before... thanks to you for such a nice video

[@delhawk8726]

That’s super cool! I always thought they left their shells 😱

[@adamc7918]

thanks for watching. they absorb the egg as food until they can swim around and find their own food

[@delhawk8726]

Adam C that makes sense ! Thank you for the explanation :)

[@galacticjewels7856]

That's actually wicked cool. Took my a while to actually notice there were little bodies attached to the eggs lol thanks for sharing.
