      New subscriber here. Gotta say, it's nice seeing all these great video makers convening on this one channel. @Dan Hiteshaw and @Cap'n Spicy both are great video makers for the aquatic hobby. Like, YT seriously needs more of you guys. I feel like you fellas cover a lot of unique material, and in unique ways. And here comes along the new channel, JH Aquatics, and again, genuine and awesome videos for the discriminating fish keeping hobbyist! Dan, Spicy, I love you guys and your videos, and JH, I I'm very happy to see your fun and unique material as well. You three are all extremely underappreciated on this site and within the hobby. I predict, and hope to see, you guys gain more exposure and help a lot more people very soon. Loving what's been coming out from your channels and wanted to thank you very much for keeping me engaged in the hobby with your videos. You three are awesome!

    I live in San Antonio Texas a couple of years ago I bought about ten varieties including a wild type feeder Guppies and released them in a local Wal-Mart drainage pond that holds water all the time inches to two three foot deep this was in March by December the who pond was loaded with several sizes or generations in ten months but sad to say in January a Cold Front killed all them in the spring the pond was fishless It was an experiment that I know was doomed I felt bad

      Well right now I have 2 tanks going. A 55 gal and a 40 gal breeder. I only have native fish that I caught myself and a rhino pleco that's pretty big lol. I have 10 catfish and some golden sided top minnows and some crayfish also, a snail (Idk what kind because I caught it. It's either an apple or mystery). All that is fixing to change though. The catfish are outgrowing the tank now so I have a 100 gal Rubbermaid to move them to! Ok so enough of that hears where the question comes in.. I want to turn my 40 gal breeder into a Endler tank with some cherry shrimp and maybe a smaller breed pleco. But I can't seem to find any endlers. And the ones I can find the lines are so muddy.. I really love these little fish but I also want to share my hobby with my local fish store just so they have something different. But, I don't want to turn out bad fish that will cloud the line more.. Now I do have some breeding experience but with chiclids not guppys. But, I'm invested for sure! Not a professional just a girl with an aquaculture degree 10 years old who loves fish and the hobby. But locally I have no fish clubs... And I don't have anyone to talk fish with. Do you recommend anyone that might be selling endlers? I do have my heart set on them but, I wouldn't mind have some other guppies as well but I'm scared to invest in someone's fish I know nothing about. So sorry for the long post! Hope it's ok ❀

    • @JHAquatics
      @JHAquatics  Pƙed 6 lety +1

      Well, in regards to the question. Do I recommend anyone to get endler's livebearers from. I would say aquabid.com. Also there is a Guy named Adrian HD in the endler world. I believe he has a nice collection. Im not sure I can ship these fish yet. If I did distribute these fishes it would more then likely be thru a group preserving species.

    WOW... That is just awesome!.. I normally consider watching anything involving guppies as a form of torture... But WILD LOCAL guppies... Insanely awesome, I'm a huge nature buff, Loved the nettles and palms as well, And the fact that it's your back yard makes it even cooler, Or your buddies... What kinds of native insects do you have there? Are there other fish species too? Again loved the plant info... Thanks for sharing this, Just amazing!!!

      Sorry... Was meant as a compliment, But humor is good too, lol... Not sure why I loathe guppies so much, I should probably keep my opinions to myself sometimes though... But honestly I really loved this video and even enjoyed the guppies, As I do respect them as a species and as part of a natural environment, I just hate them in a captivity for some unknown reason... I'm odd, I know.

    New subscriber Great video, would love to see guppies in the wild. Worked with guppies on a Genetic project and devote my CZcams channel all to them. Fascinating little animals. Thanks

    How do you catch fish in a place, and ship it back to where you live?
