Crushed coral substrate
Plants are looking good. I see you’ve got a few plastic type grids in there as well. I’m bringing my first outdoor spawn inside this weekend and hoping they grow quickly so I can tear down the extra tank 🪴
@jay-remedy-plz yeah up in the smaller tip tanks I haven't got lights set up and plants die off easily, I throw the plastic ones in just for fry to hide.
Tanks are looking great.
@@jonbuckley thanks mate
OMG !!
Hey mate, love the setup and the collection! You’ve inspired me to starting a mini room with guppies,swords etc just curious on where you get your strains from?
@ZigsAquatics Hi Mate, I have picked a few up from some aquarium shops when I got to the city. Apart from that, I have shipped them in from online places as limited here for options or choice.
Lovely
Just bought a 5 shelf rack and will have 25 tanks on it soon but would like to see your air system behind the tanks
@Mrfish700 I'll have to do a video but I have 2 pumps and run 18mm black poly pipe all around the top with each end going to the air pump. Then I just run down from the main pipe for each air line.
Tanks look way better with the substrate and black backgrounds.
@jonbuckley yeah for sure, need to get my arse into gear and get them all done
🎉🎉
Solar power is a great idea, hopefully they hold up for ya. Lmao neighbors are they best arent they?
@ChucksFeeesh yeah I hope they can last, yeah my neighbour is a real treat putting it nicely LOL.
Nice
@@elvinsworld11 thanks
Looking great sir thanks for the tour 😊
Thanks, much appreciated
Tanks looking good like always.
Thanks
Cute
Wow
Love a new fin2fin video, really love the setup mate I’m just starting to setup a fish room in a shed in Melbourne so hopefully it does alright
Awesome mate, I wish I had a bit more space but in saying that this keeps me pretty busy. Once I add the 12x2foot tanks in the little extra room I think I'll be well and truly at my limit for time.
Nice work I have been doing that as well and drilling them as well for auto water changes
@gardenshedcichlids4551 yeah would love to eventually get auto water change set up.
Just stumbled on your channel, great video 👍 subscribed
If only I could move my 50 gallon to be able to even do this without draining the whole tank
I painted most of ky tanks black too, but i really ended up liking the one that eas more green-grey. It eas just light enough but dark enough too.
I think breeding projects would be awesome to watch. Especially techniques and tricks you might know. Outcomes, success/failure Love the tanks brother just got terrocata pots to imitate I breed shrimp, guppies, platys, plecos, rainbow fish, snails and grow and sell a lot of plants. Here in west TX. Slowly growing until I get my shop set up with an AC unit and establish auto water changes
@carybritton4178 sounds awesome mate, would love my own shop but live in a pretty small town so not sure how well it would go. Definitely will start a few projects very soon.
@@Fin2FinAquariumsI gotcha by shop I mean a big shed not store . We just call them shops down here bc they’re usually areas to do various types of work. But basically huge she’d like 4-5 car garage size. 🤘🏼😎
What a fintasic fishroom!!
@@ChucksFeeesh thanks 😊
Neat! Can I ask why you have two big sponge filters in those small breeding tanks? New to the hobby and figuring this stuff out.
@WhitneyWasson was a bit of a experiment to be honest, just seeing if it helps keeping tanks clean. Was also thinking extra water movement for the bristlenose.
Nice tour. Great fish room. Thanks for sharing. New Sub. Cheers
@@Lumpydog thanks 😊
A random suggestion is a little fish I’ll be trying eventually Black Chinned Livebearer (Girardinus metallicus) Not sure if they are available over there.
@jay-remedy-plz I'll look them up mate and see if available here, I haven't heard of them but I'll do some searching.
How do you do the water changes? Especially in the fry tanks without sucking in the baby fish ?
@jayasuriyanishan when there's fry in there I put a mesh cover over the end of the pipe, so far it's worked but it us very challenging still.
I just got further into the video and see that you’re already loaded up with mixed guppies. A labor of love 💕 hahaha. Fishroom looks wonderful as always!
@jay-remedy-plz yeah plenty of mixed, I want more pure lines but the mixed guppies I sell a lot of to the local fish shop so they are handy to make a few dollars back.
You have a very tidy setup!! 👍
@@MarksShrimpTanks thanks mate
the koi sword tails look great!! I wish I had some here in the US
@sneekysport yeah they are turning out quite nice.
Awesome update. Room looks amazing.
@jonbuckley thanks mate
Thanks so much for talking about your failures as well as the successes, things go wrong and it’s all learning curves.
@carolyngemmell4388 yeah I have made plenty of mistakes that's for sure.
I love these long vids ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Mick! How ya been mate! Its jeff from east coast pgs. Havn’t talk to you in a while
@EastCoastPGS G'day Jeff going pretty well here, how about your self
Fun overview. Which species do you find are most lucrative in your fish room?
So far my basic guppys and platys are doing the job. Small return but produce easily I guess.
@@Fin2FinAquariums The German White strain (sounds creepy calling that ;) seem like an unusual ergo pricier variety.
Awesome video man. Rainbowfish are what i breed
Nice I have never kept them but definitely keen on getting a few, would really like to try them in the outdoor ponds in summer also.
Looking forward to some of your guppy breeding experiments!
Thanks mate, yeah starting think about a few pairings now. I don't know much about the genetic side if things unfortunately but I'll get some experiments going and see what happens.
@@Fin2FinAquariums Hands on is always the best. Knowing genetics will only go so far. Seeing it actually happen makes understanding the genetics much easier.
How did you calculate the cost of running this room
Pretty much just looked at running cost for split system and pumps over 24 hour period, looked at lights for 12 hour period. Certainly not 100% accurate at this stage. Looking at my electricity bill it would be cheaper I believe than what I have come up with.
Great video 😊 Detroit
Thanks mate
We need updates everyweek not every month 😊❤
I'll try and and make sure I do little updates regularly, thanks 😊
Shrimp and snails (low effort). Cichlids that are good parents (apistos, angels). And so much water maybe some plant options?
Yeah definitely keen to get some shrimp going in the 60cm tanks, get some apisto pairs going in my slightly smaller tanks.
Maybe Electric blue Acara 🤷♂️
Yeah they are on my list, nearly grabbed some last time I went to the city. Will definitely grab a few next trip.
Still looking for ideas on fish for my new tanks, thinking the bottom 2 will be my neo caradina shrimp, unsure on the other 4
I sometimes will just top off tanks. Other times I’ll do 10-20% a week or no weekly to increase growth in my plants and fresh water for my fry growing out Keep neocardinia, plecos, rainbow fish and they are all heavily stocked. 8 tanks up and running. I feel I just try to keep water as fresh as I can without altering the parameters too much
One thing I haven't thought of is the benefits for the plants and fish growth, that's a great point you make there. I top up weekly from evaporation but while I do changes 2 weekly more often than not, plenty of times tho it pushes out to 3 or 4 weeks.
With the tanks with two sponge filters in them you can take out one sponge filters and put into your new tank as it puts that beneficial bacteria straight into your tank, your tank is basically cycled, if you're interested in a project try it on one of your new tanks to see how you go. I do it a lot and never had an issue
Yeah good idea I'll definitely be switching some around.
In my experience if I do a water change with water from inside the house that goes through a water softener I will lose fish about half the time but if I use water from the same well that doesn't go through the water softener I never lose fish
As for how often I usually only do a water change when the tank needs it. For example if the TDS starts to get too high, I'm trying to breed a certain fish, raising lots of fry in one tank to grow faster. Most of my tanks have lots of plants and all are cycled so nitrite and nitrate are almost never a problem. Hope this helps!
I only have the tap water to use which I add water conditioner drops to, I was thinking of filling a 1000lt pod and letting it sit for 2 weeks then using that water to do water changes, can add what's needed when first filled each time, it's a thought anyway I have seen a clip somewhere of someone who does it and works well.
You'll have to do an update if that works or not for you! If not you could always go with an RO unit or even just a carbon block might work
Have you ever thought about sending some water in for testing to see exactly what's in your water?
So many fishes❤🎉😆😇🐠🐠🐟🐟🐟✅
I can’t recall if you use private well water or municipal city water. Do you bother to add any salt or chloramine removers? My plants always get covered in dusty green algae if I slack off.
I add the drops to remove chlorine, pretty lucky tap water here isn't terrible but can change also.
Whats your experience with stunted growth on fish like angels if you don't change water and remove hormones ??❤❤
I don't have many angels only like 5, they seem to have grown up pretty well, I am wanting to run some more on my new 2ft tanks of some different varieties. Something I'll have to look at I am pretty inexperienced with angels all up.
With only a few tanks, I pull a gallon or two off the top every 2-3 days. Once a month a 20-30 percent change. But keeping the glass clean is my headache. I let the algae stay on the back months on end. Hang in back filters are my favorite but I use sponges on some and use a canister and powerhead on my large aquarium.
Sounds similar to what I do, top ups here and there for evaporation, my water changes would probably only be 20% give ir take also
@@Fin2FinAquariumsYep that sounds similar, but I can assure you mine looks a bit different in reality 😅
Good video on an interesting and touchy subject mate. Im VERY lax on my changes, mostly just top offs, or a 'change' when I need to syphon some crap out.
Yeah I'm very similar mate, set out to do fortnightly ones but don't get around to it and really don't need to.
