What's up guys! Nice bass tank you got there. We get our shiners shipped in from Anderson Farms out of Arkansas. They have several different sizes and I believe they sell them on Amazon too. Good luck with your new pets Houston and give us a shout if you have any questions!
Thanks! We watch you guys all the time. I knew you bought yours online somewhere but wasn’t exactly sure where.
I watch you good luck on the pond
There rosy red minnows
I love bama bass and arms family love
@@ArmsFamilyHomestead Hey...thank you for ❤ing my comment. But I was curious to if you had given my idea any thought...I had mentioned how a friend of mine had set up a few small aquarium tanks and bread minnows for feeding.. I loved your guys's video with the 1000 minnows but according to my buddy a breeding pair of minnows could produce around five hundred to a thousand baby's and hatch time is only around a week...just a thought to help out financially..and or even another fun project for you and your son.....
Houston could live stream his aquarium and i bet it would get watched!! Such a cool thing to do for him! What a blessed young man he is to have a dad who takes so much interest in his sons dreams.

FYI - Best to not contaminate the pond with the bait fish water….. need a few live plants, too!
The goldfish will likely eat live plants you put in.
@@thatonedog819 Roger that, but they gotta eat, too! A few lake plants would complete the tank ecosystem. 🐠
Next time pour them on a bucket and use a net to remove the dead ones first then scoop up the live ones. Shouldn’t dump the bag water in your pond.not sure what’s n the water. I know in aquariums they advise you not to use the bag water.
That bag water could have a lot of ammonia buildup, other problems. To reemphasize, please net the minnows and transfer them. Don’t use the bag water.
Helen Scott no way will the ammonia from a 3 gallon bag effect a 300+ gallon tank like that
@@abcd1234jason with a thousand minnows, some dead, that were shipped for days? Yeah, it can mess up your parameters. You also don't know if there's any meds in there. Could get a pH swing too.
Thatonedog ok you don't understand how that's not going to happen, simple math and science but I guess not all of us are lucky enough to have a solid schooling, say if a 3 gallon bag has a ph of 9 by the time you mix that with 300 gallons of water with a ph6 you will only increase the ph to 6.003, if the waterway a ph of 9 none of the minnows would be alive therefore why would you even put them in?
@@thatonedog819 I agree, you can’t rely on Google and a sarcastic attitude like some people lol, to keep your fish safe, anyone who’s actually kept fish will tell you a dead fish in a tank can screw up water chemistry, plus you never know what you’re introducing into the tank from the water fish were transported in. Anyone with any practical fishkeeping experience knows you don’t introduce fish that live in PH6 water to a tank with PH9, you’d simply kill the fish, you’re probably introducing fish that live in very similar PH levels, whole tanks are lost by not doing so.
Why on earth do fishkeepers spend so much time and money monitoring water chemistry if it’s just simple math and schooling and everything’s okay lol, just pour your PH9 water in with your PH6 😂
Hang lights on top of the tank to attract insects at night
Clay flower pots are great hiding spots, you can even break them for a more natural look for a hide.
Yo Brother next time dont dump that FOUL water from the bag into your pond use a small net
Really cool! One suggestion though. Don't put the water that fish are transported in, in the tank. The ammonia will kill the other fish. Instead, pour the fish out of the bag into a net, then dump the fish in the tank.
No way! Tell me how 3 gallon bag is going contaminate a 300+ gallon tank,you shouldn't actually put the fish directly into different water the shock can kill them, leave them in the bag and add water from the tank into the bag every hour till the bag is full then release them, yea more then one way to skin a cat so don't tell people what to do when everyone is different.
Thats really only an issue in fish tanks large ponds its not really an issue as its diluted so much
Wow tell Huston he has done a good job on his new pool pond
He is awesome
Gets some craw dads in there and snails to get rid of the dead fish too and make it a whole little ecosystem and some plants in there
As well as getting rid of half of the rocks in the bottom. Absolutely no need for it to be that thick and yes I've grown Smallies. Give them some depth as well as a contrasting platform.
+1 on the clean up crew
Just a little heads up, next time do not pour the water the minows came in into your pond. pour it over a net into a bucket and then dump the minows in the pond. That water has super hi amonia and other chemicals that the bait nursery puts in the water to keep the minows alive for transportation. Besides that awesome looking enviroment for the bass and blue gill. They are going to outgrow that little stock tank soon!
Watch out for fish viruses and snails
I was going to say the same thing.
Actually those few fish will not outgrow that tank anytime soon as long as the water quality and oxygen level is maintained. You'd be amazed at how small of a tank you can keep large fish in. I used to grow dozens of bass, bluegill and catfish in a stock tank like that but circulated the water through an above ground swimming pool that was covered with water hyacinths and water lettuce which filtered out ALL of the impurities. The filter pool was also used to breed and raise gambusia minnows and goldfish for feeders.
I was going to say the same thing as well. I'm 2 weeks late here, I own a fish store and order thousands of feeders ever week and dumping the water in will definitely deplete your water quality. It would probably be a good idea to get a smaller horse trough to put the feeders in so your fish don't become gut loaded. Semi tame fish that has a semi regular schedule tend to over eat when yoo much food is offered at 1 time. Just a heads up other then that it looks really good guys keep up the hard work!.
LOVED the underwater pond shot at the beginning! It would be nice to see more of that, especially as the pond matures.
I liked that too!
I am grateful for people like Josh s they help to protect native species and the land.
Houston, OH my goodness! That pond is amazing! I have watched it from start to finish and I have to say, wow! You did an awesome job creating your pond.
Houston is going to have a ton of stories and experiences to share with his young ones when he grows up. Houston, you are a lucky kid and your dad is a lucky one to have you to share with. God's love to you all.
God watch over you and Houston is the sweeties little boy
His dad is soooo lucky
Houston is a natural at fish conservancy!! I ❤️ watching him learn and grow and teach me too!! Thank you 🙏
I would consider doing another pond for the minnows and maybe get them breading for ya
Too time consuming because this type of minnow must grow to a minimum size before they are mature! BUT they should have a second pond to put the new minnows into so they can pick out all of the dead to freeze. The frozen ones can be thawed and thrown to the bass when needed. The minnows being kept in the separate pond can be fed to the bass as needed. The will last far longer. When there are too many in the pond like this the bass and bream will tend to kill and over eat and spit up man of them, which will go to waste, even if the catfish eat some of them.
Also, those minnows should have been floated and released as soon as they arrive. Every minute they sit, waiting to be "filmed" is causing more stress and less available oxygen.
Guppies would be a better candidate as they are live bearers
@@ethanpaine5214 - Not guppies, they are not hardy enough for an outside tank, but gambusia (mosquitofish) would be Ideal, although, like guppies, they do not grow very big. Minnows or shiners could be added, or even feeder goldfish.
I love how you can use your camera in the pool pond it’s awesome to watch the fish go after the others to eat them. I’m so happy you have one now Houston. When I was a little girl I used to have a little pond in the backyard and I would always go and watch the fish that were in there we had huge goldfish in there and they were just very calming to me to watch them swim around. I love watching your channel and I’m glad that you guys do so many different things and show everything that you do. Be Safe and God Bless. 💜🖤💚
GoPro in the pool pond is Awesome!
Some of Houston's tumbled rocks might look nice in his pond.
I would love to have that pond. Looks amazing
Yes me too
Goldfish LOVE eating rosy reds. I keep goldies and use the minnows as a weekly treat for my fish to hunt . Keeps the fish happy to hunt and chase. Very cool!
I love Houston’s enthusiasm. I hope he manages to keep that joy and passion for everything he does!
10# of minnows adds 1# to bass. Use the old tank to breed minnows.
Never in my wildest dreams did I think you could buy live fish off Amazon... It's so kool... The pool pond is neat... Much love to you from Crescent Ok
)y
I really enjoyed seeing the under water video. Made it so much more interesting, being able to see what the fish see. Thank you for including it.
The minnows did great and that na big pig ...Good video Daniel...Robert Guzman
This is why I love this channel is that it takes me off the video games and makes me look here and see how his dad bonds with his son and my dad dose the same thing we always go fishing also a tip for the pond is you should add a giant air bubbler that’s what I have in my koi pond so if the power were to go out that bubbler will keep it air rated
Hilarious! @2:45 in the background, Url is tossing Jemma like a rag doll !!😄poor Jemma
It's amazing how clear the water is staying
Really though. My first thought was "why is the water so low" but it's not, it's just crystal clear
Hi Houston and the arms family
The under water shots were really nice and the minnows looked so pretty.
The field in early morning light was absolutely beautiful.
Oh you put the little turtle in hes so cute.
Wow. Your patio volunteer is gorgeous. The pig trap is crazy cool and totally effective! The fish are too much fun to watch! Awesome video! Tfs!!
we had bass in my buddys old pool , we put a shop light shinng into the water . it attracted light bugs moths and such we kept them fed
The looking under the water was amazing
That was awesome being able to watch the feast under water.
Hi Arms Family, hi everyone " 1,000 minows
thats a lot", cool pond, :)
i’m making a little aquarium for my youtube channel because of y’all’s amazing content
Houston this is my new favorite project you’ve got going on buddy 👊🏻.
Thanks to Josh and you for helping to rid Oklahoma of this terrible creature.
Big fan love your pond Huston
Houston install a overhead bare stainless steel wire lines so the Eagles or another air predators won't still yor fish from your pond
May want to build a good filter. Plans on net, just some lava rock a rubber maid water trough and a piece of 2'×4' "egg crate" light defused for ceiling lights
Rosie red's are your basic feeder fish. If you're ever in a pinch you can buy them at your local pet store. Always remember the fish do not need to eat every day. Going a day or two without food is good for their digestive system. Neat find!
Houston's pool pond is the neatest thing I've ever seen I am glad you decided to do that
I take it you don't watch BamaBass then.
I could seriously just watch footage from the inside of the pond all day. It's such a relaxing view. I sense a channel for Houston in the future. 😉
I was thinking the same thing. Plus setting up another pool just to start breeding some minnows of your own Daniel instead of purchasing them, build a self sustaining system of sorts. 🥰🙏🏻🇨🇦
What a great learning environment for Houston. It's fun to watch how excited he is about his pool pond. It was nice to see how the fish were eating food thst is common to their environment ss opposed to only eating commercial "fish pellets." Thanks for sharing the fih pond project.
I like your small pond 😘😍
We have bass in our pool pond and we put bait fish in it and they spawned and have never had to buy them
Your kids are gonna have some story's to tell their kids later in life!! #liveyourbestlife
Love your videos keep up the good work
Cool underwater footage!
I've done smaller outdoor ponds with guppies, but your pond looks like more fun.
The poll looks gre6at love how the minnows schooled up it looks really natural think I would build a little bigger rock out of the water for the turtle 🐢 he's pretty small to navigate well
Wow Houston keep up your pond videos
Watch shiner Sam he sales shiners for bait in Florida . But he has huge pet bass that he hand feeds by hand he is super neat . A nice clean channel.
The Pond looks great and Soooo Clear! Awesome footage!
What a fun activity for a father and son to do together. Thanks for sharing it with us.
I absolutely love that pool pond! I can see one of those in my future on our back patio. You can buy anything from Amazon lol.
It's amazing how clean and clear the water is.
Great job Houston! That's an awesome pond!
You have a very nice fish pond for a starter. Something to be proud of.
Those Bass are going to grow up to be big'uns from all those minnows. Huston, you are such a great kid.
Love watching Y'all add the feeders to your pool pond. Looks like it's doing good. I thought that hog was gonna jump that fence. Didn't realize they could jump that high. GOD BLESS Y'ALL.
Might need to get a minnow breeding tank lol
pond looks amazing! makes me want one!
Wow !!! A lot of food !! Bless you all !!
Hello Daniel, I love to see how you and Houston doing things together. The poll looks great it looks really natural.
Fish pond is looking good
My friend built a cage around a tree and had box turtles laying eggs. She than retrieved the eggs 🥚 buried them in an aquarium and when they were big enough put them in the area around the tree
Nice story
Sweet. Nice job
I have seen your pond from the beginning and now look how it became more amazing .You all have done an excellent job. Continue your good work and contents too. 🐟🐟🐟😄
The pond looks great, the water is nice and clean! The hog pen seems to be doing its job. That hog sure didn’t like being in there that’s for sure!
This is exciting... Houston looks so excited
Can’t believe the under water pics!! Thank you!!
Thank you for sharing, Sir!
Houston's pond looks great in underwater shots!!! Maybe some water plants are the last things it needs, but all in all, it really is so very nice!
Love your bringing the creeklife home!!
I have a 55 gallon tank inside and water evaporates that fast and there's no leak. I wonder if your dogs or wild animals are using your pool pond for a drinking fountain. I really enjoyed the under water view.
Lester was gifted a big box of minnows for his pond recently, that was neat to watch too.
Love this! You can see how much he loves and looks up to his dad, so special!
Good Evening to Arms Family Homestead and all others too. So amazing i love it.
I hope everybody sees how mean these hogs are and one reason they have to go
If a hog ever successfully jumps that high fence we better check him for hidden wings. Hey Keaton, my man, how about learning part of the sign-off so you & Houston can outro together?
FYI, you can also buy feeder insects off Amazon too.
Love the pool pond! Looking great! Love seeing the fish and the turtle. Love seeing any/all of the family!
❤🤍💙✌
Holy cow that pig can jump!!!
Great job boys, and as for the man that does the pigs everyone has to make a living I think it's a great idea ,
HERVEY BAY QUEENSLAND AUSTRALIA
Pond looks real good..
Have a good evening 🌻🌻🌻
The boys are getting so big. Good to see the family is well.
Came to see the pond, stayed for the cute kid ❤️
Those fish were $110.00 and free shipping. They are goldfish minnows and if any get big enough so the others can't eat them then you will have some good limb line bait. Then you can catch some big blues to put in your tank. Good luck with your adventure. Isn't it great to have a dad that gives a helping ✋ hand.
The little Slider is loving the space to swim around 😄
That pool pond is Amazing!!!! God Bless and have a Great Week!! 😊❤⚘
Might need a little larger platform for the turtle.
Definitely!
my bass are hand trained if you only let them to eat from you they will hand feed quick
I wait for you to post everyday and I was waiting for the pool pond
Video
Howdy AFH👋 That was awesome. Appreciate y'all sharing with us. Ponds looking great. Stay safe and God Bless y'all 🙏✌❤😊
Awesome fish pond for Houston. I think you may have a fisheries biologist for a son....
Love it. You guys are awsome. Housten your awsome
Hi from Syracuse NY everyone
You outta get a cast net and go to ponds and catch minnows and shad and feed them to them when they get bigger.
