Trade the shrimp filter and air stones for a sponge filter. You'll filter the water, only have 1 bubble stream disturbing the water surface, no cords and only 1 air line running out of the tank, and it only produces water current vertically instead of horizontally like the shrimp filter produces making it easier to swim for the beetles. Plus sponge filters are super cheap and super easy to maintain!
Observing aquatic insects used to be a favorite pass time when I was a child. Unfortunately, they're a rare sight now as too many humans have moved here and taken over spaces they inhabited.
Great guide to getting started with an aquatic insect tank! Looking forward to seeing which species Peter and Jesse send you to add to the community!
I had four predaceous diving beetles as temporary pets when I visited China in the summer when I was little. They're called "water cockroaches", and they are a delicacy there, served as a popular dish. Each time we went to those restaurants, my father would steal one of the beetles and put it in a napkin packaging and hand it to me. I remember almost squishing one of them because I didn't know why my father handed me the napkin package or what was in there. We kept doing this until we had four beetles in total. We had a glass fish tank in our temporary home, and we would put them in the fish tank. I stayed in China for about five weeks before I had to go home because summer break was ending. There was never any decoration in the tank, so the poor beetles were never able to climb onto land to dry. I also don't remember ever feeding them anything, but I remembered that all four of them survived during my entire vacation. I don't know what happened to them after I went back to Canada. I imagine that they either died, or were thrown out by the other people who lived in that house. But I loved those pets and they were a precious childhood memory of mine. It wasn't until today that I found out what the actual name is. I always just called them "water cockroaches". I wonder where they can be found in Canada. I would really love to have them as pets again.
Super cool set up. I had a few of these take up residence in a kiddie pool when I was little girl. I thought they were super cool. Till one bit me lol. After that I let them have the pool. Ended up being really neat. All sorts of creatures took up residence in it. Before my dad got rid of it I threw a fit till we caught every last bug, tadpole and frog and relocated them to a local pond.
Depending on species, they'll also hunt mosquito larvae or freshwater snails. And their larvae are often venomous, obligate carnivores that will even hunt down big fish - take care when keeping!
Incredible footage! Would love to see the other aquatic insects,and possibly the larval stages of diving beetles. I think they look amazing! Also find the way they inject enzymes into their prey, which dissolve their internal organs and are then sucked into the diving beetle’s mouth really interesting n cool
Absolutely fantastic Richard, would love to see more about them.
Look Richard, you've already helped me conquer my fear of spiders, and cost me thousands because you keep showing those beautiful Ts... and now you want to show me this? Man, you're costing me too much money!😂
Nice to see you exploring more cool insects? And love the studio 👍👍
I would like to see more of them. They're pretty and fun to watch. By the way, the Aquarium looks great 👍
YES! More aquatic insects please!
Hello great video information Richard
There So CUTE 🤣
I used to get bit in my pool by “water bugs” that looked just like this!!!
This was AWESOME to watch and learn about!! Thx Richard!!
We need to see more of these!
So I'm hoping a lifecycle video in the future?
Great video btw
So cool! I've got two fishtanks so that's enough for me rn but maybe I'll set up a third tank for beetles someday!!
Very cool additions to the Collective.
Just found some in some buckets in the garden.thank you very helpful.
Amazing video man ❤️❤️ always love watching this channel!
Great video as always ❤
Those things are awesome! Thanks for the facts! I love them!❤❤❤
You’re the reason I got my first tarantula 👑🐐 keep up the great work!
Great to see these wonderful creatures. I have created at least 10 outdoor ponds in the UK that are lined with pond liner or rigid liner and I have never been able to attract wild beetles (or even bugs like Notonecta). I am so discouraged by this fact. It is wonderful to see beetles thriving in the artificial environment that you have created. I have no idea why beetles and bugs do not thrive in any of my ponds so if anyone here has any thoughts I would appreciate reading any ideas. In the meantime I will enjoy watching this video. Thanks.
Great video
Amazing ❤❤
Very interesting to watch !
Awesome vid man , Love the species he's got, but if he thinks them little beetle bites hurt, he's never met me and my beetles before
These are very entertaining to watch .
sooo diving bell spider next?
That is so cool ❤
I'm designing a Riparium . This sounds like an excellent addition to it!
dude this is cool
Coooool dude I remember these
Why would diving beetles prefer "well oxygenated water", when they breath from the surface?
I'd understand if they had gills, but they return to the surface for new oxygen.
Forget fish! These guys r the bomb!
I kept these before,amazing pets,my biggest one would eat right out of my hand,he was a great diving beetle.
Yeeeeeeeees!!!
OMFG! The are sooo cute, I want them...
Here's a documentary about the Diving Beetle. There's some cheese factor with the writing and I think the foley team got a little drunk but it's REALLY GOOD! Conflicts of Nature : Conflicts in a Pond

It'd be cool to see a periwinkle tank. Those little larvae that build a case around themselves made of tiny pebbles and sand
Awww it was a love bite dad. How long do they live?? I'd imagine around a year or so??
Shout out to Marshall arachnids. Dig their enclosures and logo. There’s just something about that purple I dig.
So could I create a bioactive for my green anaconda with these?
I know how to take care of some I have one that was going to feed to my fish but they're cool so it didn't eat the koi but now they're best friends
You have to stop ✋ I have no more room for critters lol I'll have to buy another home 😅
😂😃😉
Manic!
I actually have one as a pet but i might need a bigger enclosure
Hey Richard. I so much appreciate your videos, you inspired me to get my first tarantula, my Brachypelma Hamori named Hank, an inside joke of my family. I was so thrilled, I just picked up my second, Juvenile Nhandu Tripepii. Do you have any tips for this species, I got it at the local pet store that has plenty of exotics but not a lot of knowledge. Any tips would be very appreciated.
Quick add on, if you have experience with this spider, me and a few friends of mine would love to see a video, there isn't any care or info video in depth on this species of T.
guys i have a couple in my pool and i caught them today, i want to keep them cause why not so how do i feed them or make them just live?
Lol we had a swimming pool that we filled with lake water and some of these guys got in. They get huge!!! And those pinchers are no joke😂. They do look pretty awesome in a tank though and something to eat my dead tarantula feeders would be pretty cool
I accidentally collected one or two from the pond behind my house when I was getting minnows and one has stayed in the tank and seems to like it a lot. The other was probably eaten by my cat 🤷♂
I want a giant one
Got 5 and an elver. Do you think my elver is in danger?
Maine i remember these from animal crossing 😂
Ever get a bite? Hurts more than a wasp sting, they bits so fricken hard
First ☺️
I feel like I’ve seen some in a swimming pool before? Anyone else?
Why you are keeping skull.
Looks like mini turle lol
Lifespan of these diving beetles?
I read between 4 months to a year, but they're avid breeders so if you have a good number of them they should constantly replace themselves. I already have little larvae and baby beetles swimming around.
Whatever happened to your N.incei communal?
🖤💛🤎🖤💛🤎🖤💛🤎🖤
Can I put them in a backyard pond?
So we had some take over a swimming pool of ours growing up, and they just lived in the lake I grew up on so they would probably do great in a pond. I’m not sure exactly what species we had but they would bite so just a heads up
They're probably already there
Thank you!
Once you bitten by a diving beetle, it squirt out some green liquid from its mouth
