Tanks & fish are looking great 👌 I appreciate the occasional early release videos for the Patreon Garage Gang Supporters 😎 ALL THE BEN OCHART LINKS fishfam.link/benochart Including Patreon
Your tanks and fish are wonderful. Thank you for sharing.
👍😎 At the beginning you said, You think we’ll like what you’ve done, that doesn’t matter, it’s if you do. That being said, looks great. That guy better not pick on Oscar’s, he’ll loose.
Loving the South American tanks. I'd honestly like to get back into them, but Tanganyikans and Victorians have my heart as the next thing in my open tanks. So I'm always appreciative of, and will have to sadly resort to living vicariously through you American species keepers.
I only keep AC’s but love the Geo’s and Acara. Very nice Ben.
Tbh they all look great especially Picasso
Very nice. Everything accepts a fusco because if they don't fusco will do the spear attack at their head lol
Thanks Ben! Just beautiful tanks!!
Nice setup!
Always appreciate your wisdom and opinions. Thank you for all the great info from your videos.
I love my sunsun 704b.i have it for a long time with no problems.
Looking forward to the live stream buddy , Testing all my tanks water this morning to see if water change is needed and they are all at 20ppm nitrates lookin sweet and I never have ammonia or nitrites, seems I can go three weeks if wanted to but I do it every two weeks regardless so fish get fresh water ! See u in the live stream buddy
I am very much eagerly looking forward see a Marine/ Reef Tank in your collections Ben. Tell me do you have any thought in your mind to set up a Reef ???
Ben the tanks are great! Always good to keep filters seeded and used rather than to sit I say, Picasso good name as he looks painted smart girl, did that flex tank come with the 3d background ? Im currently making my own diy ones in one tank to see if I like it, ur tanks super clean organized in the garage just my style !
you should try a Tanganyika... they are very different cichlids...
Great update. Everything looks spotless. Your Vieja seems to be slow in reaching mature size (12 -14 inches), which may be preferred since mine are huge in my 500 and when they take a "dump" you cannot miss it. Your live plants seem to be doing as well as mine did for 50 years- before I discovered the miracle of CO2. Hope you try CO2 sometime, it has doubled the joy for me in aquarium keeping.
Just beautiful tanks and fish. Love that new betta and the duplex. Me and my brother had a betta for several years growing up. Now I'm getting the bug for another one after watching you, KG, Primetime and yes, simply betta. I bought a black Friday 20gal kit a few years ago, it's been in a closet unopened ever since. 20 is a little large for a single betta, but that does leave a lot of room for plants and nice scaping. And I watched you apply the black vela max to your 29. I'm going to order some. Great video, thank you for sharing your fishroom with us. It looks really great. PS See what you've done gone and started, and I betta I'm not the only one.
🤣I betta you’re not🤣 Thanks Jeff
What kind of fish is the super colorful one 18 seconds in? it is amazing!!
Can I please move in?🇦🇺❤️
Morning, where are you buying your artificial plants from now?
I haven’t purchased in a long time but eBay has some nice ones.
Where did you get your plants? I'm looking for some large quality artificials
Elite Cichlids who are no longer in business. Check eBay, I’ve seen some nice items listed there.
Typical oscars begging for food at the front😄
