Breeding flightless fruit flies
Today we're looking at a pretty simple growth media for fruit flies. Cheap, easy, seems to be fairly resistant to mold.

DIY Root tabs
zhlédnutí 1,3KPřed 4 lety
Ugh, you know that issue where you mix up all the prices in a video? Root tabs? $8, gel caps? $10. The price on these has also gone up, but here's what I use for my tabs. amzn.to/3dbh4wX I'll probably get about 3,000 out of the bag of fertilizer (on sale for $7 on amazon as I write this: amzn.to/2WktHPu if you care) so the long term cost is about 1.5 cents per capsule, or about 2.6 cents each a...

Someone stole our recording equipment

So we had a break in, luckily they only took the recording equipment. They missed my laptop and editing workstation that was very close by.

Test build for a new type of epoxy. Just a quick build video. New tank is using Kemiko SS1600 waterbourne epoxy.

That was hilarious haha. And educational of course. So easy.
I love the parrot cameos 😂
My favorite live food culture is micro worms, the reason being that they have never ever failed me when I tried to culture them. They are only appropriate for fry and other very small fish, but they are great for them.
So I bought levamisole in a product called Fritz's expell P I have some guppies Pilates mollies and tetras in quarantine for the past 2 weeks or so. The one Molly in particular constantly has long white stringy poop so I treated everyone with paracleanse and gave expel P last night Just in case. I don't see any red worms so if days go by and I see no red worms do you think it's safe to not retreat since I was doing it as a preventative? Also the package says to retreat in one week but I was told to wait two weeks because of the eggs hatching. I'm assuming they say that because the eggs would be in the aquarium and hatch and get eaten but if I don't see any more worms I plan on moving them into the bigger community tank. They are eating and they look healthy so I'm wondering if I can move them over after a few days especially if I don't see any red worms. What are your thoughts?
How do you seal the glass/epoxi interface?
hi i think you can get much more area for this by just printing a cuboid with 0 top and bottom layers, then use 60% hilbert curve infill(available in orca slicer). you will get much more surface area .
How to it inside tank. Will it get dismantle if slightl mishandling occurs.
Lost my collection after a spinal injury years ago but was barely able to keep my collection when I spent a year with long Covid. Starting over is part of moving on.
what about microplastic in poliyteran sponges? When I washed my dishes with these and scrubbed hard, the sponge left micro pieces of the dark green scrub part on the plate. I don't want that in my tank. I thought you would recommend natural sponges, not plastic ones.
How to culture rhem without starter
Is there a way to separate or divide the young ones from the adult roaches?
Thank s so much i was to have got such a video as the only problem of mine is this. Now i can solve it🙏
This is awesome. I was laughing so hard when you shocked them with the battery. Didn't know that was a thing.
bruh, I've been recently on acrylic related projects and includes terrariums and aquariums. this helps a lot for the correct sealant. thanks a bunch.
I'm trying to start a couple cultures from a single precopulatory amplexed pair out of curiosity to see how it goes
Why do yanks take so long to tell a simple story.
Someone at the factory made a mistake and was either afraid to admit it or their supervisor okayed it. I always find stuff like that fasinating.
@mischiefandfins what's your website with the calculator?
you are a genius and this video is awesome!
Pls come back
Where did you go?
So it’s been a long time. But just looking on the internet the coratech v400 vs pond shield. It appears that the black pond shield is pretty close in price. Has the price of coratech increased so dramatically? I saw a 2 gallon coratech kit for 189. I saw a 1.5 gallon pond armor on amazon for 180. If the price is this close now any other suggestions or just buy pond armor
I am bummed. I have a clutch of goldfish eggs that were crystal clear up to date three. They are in a small 750ml fry tank with air stone. They have developed a fuzz over them. I change the water once a day, with main tank water. I am trying to save them. I put two drops of malachite green in for two water changes. Today is day 4 from fertilizing. I put a capful of peroxide 3% at the water change today. The fuzz is not expanding but it is not reducing either. I remain hopeful that they hatch ok in a few more days. But from my online surfing, it is probably false hope. 😔 I have not tried raising goldfish eggs before, so when conditions presented I got excited about giving it a go. It is looking like this part of the hobby is 99% failure 1% success. Hanging on to that 1% !
Where do I find this caculaotr
Thank you so much for this helpful video. I'm definitely sure you have saved so many people's time, money, and energy!!
I don't want scuds. I want to get rid of them. These things hitch hiked in to my aquarium on some live plants and now I have a few adults. I don't want them taking over I can only assume the fish will control the population. They brought with them Planaria. Now I have to treat my system for parasites as well as try to rid my aquarium of this unwanted pest before they eat all my plants and ruin it completely. I am going to have to break down my tank, completely clean and sterilize everything and replant it after everything has been treated, and I will have to go through the cycling phase again which is going to take another 6 months to year to complete. Time will only tell and I will treat the tank first and only resort to total break down of the tank if nothing else works.
My pump has to be submerged. I was going to put it in the bucket then pumping to the tank. Will that work?
if it's always mislabeled then how do you find the seeds? i REALLY want some. i have one tank that these would be absolutely perfect for. where do i get em?
How did you solve the overflow due to power outages.
Amazing! thank you! Tasted my sponge - should be okay for my turtle lol
do you use these sponges and if you do how ?
Now, would these sponges be safe for just a quick wipedown of the glass? Big difference in what leaches into the water in a few minutes of use vs. months of being used as filter medium.
Do you know where I can find wild caught angels
Iv had it sitting in the for over 8 months is it ok to use still?
Thank you for that. So contrary to what I've been told, black worms can be cultivated outside of a cool to cold environment? Would they tolerate temp in the early to mid 20's Celsius??
Hi great info, Is your calculator up and running still? Regards Duzzy🇦🇺
Great video with a lot of information! Do you think they can be fed to corydoras? When there is a strong flow in the tank, will they settle on the ground in dead leafs? Thanks
This is so informative!!! Fantastic reporting!🌻🌼🐝

My whole aquarium with guppies has been devastated it 3 days after I installed that cellulose sponge. Only a single catfish survived. You don't wanna use it definitely. I wish I watched this video before.

Will the airflow from airstone disturb eggs?
I've got my eggs in 5 gallon aquarium with a cone and was wondering when do you add sponge filter and does it need to be seeded? Please help 🙏
With the amount of water damage that can happen from an aquarium ill still to aquarium silicone. There is a reason its rated for the purpose. But helpful to know for other projects.
hey mad scientist where is the pump that pumps the water through your system ? I didn't catch that in the video? Is there a mechanical pump or you just use water pressure from your your regular pipes ?
OMG, why aren't you still on the internet, the hobby needs you so badly.
Dude That's a Oceanic tank, they are probably the best tank on the market. Nice find.😊
Very comprehensive.
Try alder cones?
