[@mattkinsella9856]

The tip about shopping around specifically looking for hobbyist bred fish is something I wish I'd learned sooner. The difference between what you'd find in most stores and online retailers Vs hobbyists fish is absolutely night and day. it's also a difference you can't quite comprehend or appreciate until you go down that route.

[@berenicehickey9755]

I fully agree!

[@elizabethochoa6842]

These fish have been on my bucket list! I'm currently setting up a 75g and want to add shiners. I'm glad these fish are getting celebrated! We have some seriously underrated native fish!

[@mongguppiesandendlers]

The way i understand with rainbow shiners is that they get those amazing colors when they are in breeding condition so your plainer ones just might color up as soon as they hit breeding size/condition.

[@markvonwisco7369]

Green water is great fry food! Also, a great way to jump start a summer pond is to use water change water from an established aquarium. I generally go with a 50/50 ratio.

[@evita1643]

I got baby rainbow shiners last week. Didnt think about different quality of strains. Im a bit stressed now that mine are gonna be ugly 😂 Hoping for the best. Happy for you and your beautiful new ones!

[@lpoolck17]

I'd have been tempted to take the existing rainbow shiners out of their pond and put them into the new setups and put the new shiners into the long pond.

[@GlassSurfing]

YES! Pro move sourcing from Justin. So glad you're happy with them too

[@jonbailey7801]

I bought 12 from this breeder at a local club meeting and then bought 12 more from him directly. They are currently my favorite fish in my fish room. The colors they flash when feeding are amazing! Just be careful, I had a couple jumpers which prompted an emergency run to my lfs for a cover.

[@mikesoule1352]

I'm surprised you didn't set up the containers before you purchased your fish! I ordered albino red swordtails, earlier this year and was so excited for them, that I had their tank set up weeks in advance! Success!!! 🥰

[@Who_Else]

Am I the only one who would be way too impatient to get those fish out of those bags?? Definitely would have gotten some hot water from inside to get the temperature to match way faster. 😅

He has the best rainbow shinners by far. Imo. Thanks for sharing

[@Knein1967]

The shiners I got from Aqua Huna look just like yours, but mine don't hide so much. I do have lots of plant cover in my pond though. Lilies and Amazon Frog bit are what I have for cover plants. You might try some frogbit or lilies in your ponds to give them some cover plants, and maybe they won't hide so much. I also put a tray of river pebbles in the bottom of the pond for them to lay the eggs in after watching the White Cloud Dynasty videos.

[@AQUAPROS]

how long have you had them????

[@Knein1967]

I got them May 8 of this year.

[@kakarikiyazoo]

I bought a dozen rainbow shiners fro. Aquahuna at the beginning of February and they are now very colored up and doing great. I ended up with mostly males; only three females in the group. So very colorful group of males coloring up to impress the females.

[@Twinkley1981]

[@shesellsfish]

[@jodieford5738]

Why don't you float the bags in the pond to equalise the temperature?

[@sentwigz1807]

probably better to wait for the water in the pond to match the temperature of the bag rather than the opposite

[@ab4877]

[@WatermelonJiki]

[@darrylmoore5847]

I am very happy that you have new high quality fish. If the others do turn out to be all females you could send a male from the new fish over to do his thing.

[@denrenvavanaardt6989]

the catfish in my 450 died and im thinking of adding tons of moss and floating plants then putting my white clouds and shrimp in it hoping hey will breed enough for me to never have to replace them lol

[@Kyddoemiko13]

I was inspired , we don't have Japanese Rice here in Maryland at our box stores Petco, or Pet Smart, But I was able to find Golden minnows, I think 🤔 they are called feeders . I did get Chinese mountain minnows plus golden mountain minnows the pond can go from 73 degrees to 88 my only concern on a 90 degree day I hope my little guys can handle the heat. I have papyrus growing in the mini-pond I hope that will help to keep things cool.

[@msbranen6261]

The fish are amazing!! I gotta get my pond fix from you- i live in rural area and not crazy about attracting snakes, hawks, eagles, etc. also have a Labrador retriever that wont stay out of water as it isA

[@soleillebolduc2448]

do you have any tips on how to get rid of cloudiness in your pond from sand? I just set one up on Friday and its still very cloudy and low visibility. I thoroughly washed my sand before putting it in.

[@1956tojo]

Chlorines gas off in 24 hour if the water is not agitated any... any agitation at all actually speeds that process up.. Using dechlorinating chemicals for aquarium water like AquaSafe (which is what I have used for decades, takes care of the chlorines and metals in tap water for immediate use.... and when starting a new tank I ALWAYS siphon a gallon each from 3-4 other established tanks for their beneficial parameters and the new tank gets established at least 3 times faster...

[@jessl1934]

Chlorine yes, chloramine no. Chloramine is becoming more widespread in municipal water supplies and if your local water supply switches to using chloramine they almost never notify people of this.

[@reddmanpower606]

It's not going to hurt to mix them fish mix up all the time in the wild 100 of different species I have done it and it worked out great

[@kmexperience1140]

[@AQUAPROS]

[@rgess8007]

Great videos! I noticed you have a low tank in your fish room, maybe 8 inches high by a couple feet long. Do you have a video on that type of tank? I have been interested in setting up a small nano tank like that. Thank you.

[@dennisvanopstal7360]

I my opinion you should put 2 actual aquariums up outside. One for the first group of rainbow shiners and one for the second group. So you can study the differences. Are the first group really all female? And that way you can appreciate the colours way better as in a pond.

[@brantonlightcap]

[@LongFingeredEgalitarian]

A real pro who respected the fish and the breeder would have facilities/pond/aquarium ready to receive the fish the moment they hit the front door.

[@NamelessNancy1312]

ima need to buy some of them from you when you get some babies. Ive been looking for good rainbow shiners for like 8 months.

[@vampgaia]

They are beautiful. I’ve moved and am still getting things organized. All my fish are outside in big tubs (three 110 gallons and a 200+ gallon 6x2x2). I want to get some shiners for the 200 gallon because of its 6ft length. Would they be okay with endler/guppies and some rainbow cichlids?

[@AQUAPROS]

ive heard they can be a little fin nippy... but im not sure. havnt mixed them with smaller fish yet, if you try it Id just watch em closely

Mate stop waving your hand over the fish. At 16:25 , when in the bags, they are freaking out. Again at 22:25 when in the tub. I know you talk with your hand as part of your presentation style, but you also talk about not stressing them out. You're right about buying from small breeders, but I think they are much older fish than the other ones. I would rather see them in a tank as they have more vibrant colours on the sides. Beautiful fish either way, jealous I can't get them here in Oz.
