  • Lessons from an old school hobbyist. Bonnie has been keeping and breeding tropical fish for over 50 years... wow! She is the OG (old guy hahaha). Bonnie was a huge blessing to spend time with and learn about her life in the hobby and how the hobby saved her through live. This fish room tour will always be one I remember as Bonnie was such a great person to spend time with.
    Bonnie is currently breeding corys, rainbows, chiclids and some angelfish. She has over 40 aquariums and she isn't stopping there. She even has one of the coolest antique aquariums I have ever seen!
    Check out some of the other fish room tours I have done:

    I was really stressed going through Law school and securing a job at a firm etc. During that time I got really into fish keeping. I was in a skyscraper looking up the nitrogen cycle and learning all the basics at 25. Buying a tank, getting it settled, decorating it, and getting my fish etc really helped me through that time. Fishkeeping is definitely therapeutic.

      @@GlobeXLabels Depends. You can look at it one way; you are taking care of something and watching it grow. It depends on you. Or you can look at it as a chore.
      Also, if you have 1 or 2 tanks...it's nothing. Especially if they're well balanced. You can have a self sustaining ecosystem and the only thing left to do is top off a tank.

      @dingodyno9016 Před rokem

      Also depends on what you are running in your tank. If you are doing a full planted tank, then less time doing maintained and more time enjoying the fish as the plants are absorbing all those excess nutrients for you and doing way less water changes. Non planted tank on the other hand is a different story. Also depends on the type of fish you have and sizes of them and size tanks also, its just a lot of variables that go into it, but at the end of the day, you decide how the outcome of the tank is going to be and the amount of work you would be giving yourself

    When he mentioned ptsd and added about people who have it from car accidents it made me smile because people need to be aware that ptsd can come from all kinds of stuff not just war. This isnt talked about nearly enough and it needs to be because this stereotype needs to be squashed.
    So I want to just give a big THANK YOU too Flip Aquatics for just bringing this fact up on his channel.

      Can confirm. The brain doesn't wait for a heroic, war-like danger to develop PTSD. It can happen from some rather domestic things; being assaulted, car accident, natural disasters, being bitten by a dangerous animal, and a bunch of other pretty mundane things.

    Too many tanks causes something I call burnout. I have had fish tanks for 62 years starting with quart jars of guppies. Burnout happens when you get tired of the work and the challenge of keeping them alive.I have seen burnout many times over the years. It is a natural consequence of getting tired of a particular hobby. Some of my fish are 30 years old. Bonnie is an unusually dedicated fish keeper. Full time tank keeper.

    • @stanr5787
      @stanr5787 Před 6 lety +32

      James King incredible right!?! I have owned my cichlids for approximately 3 years now and burnouts happens at a point I stopped caring for a while I stopped cleaning or feeding.
      I got a kick in the butt when I saw them getting weak and started making changes got them a new aquarium, better canister filter, changed gravel to sand to match their natural habitat I also got rocks, new lighting, heater and everything. I've been with them for 3 years and I would cry if I see them die.

      Yeah I’ve been keeping with breaks here and there for 35yrs. I think that’s totally natural and life is all about cycles of on/off. Most go through this in most aspects of their life-like my job/ hate this boring job, like living here/I need a change, I love spending time with my wife/ Lol better not type this one. Life itself is setup like this so you don’t get burnt out-you have the experience of life and then bam the switch shuts off. Omg I’ve been watching too much Alan Watts. Sometimes a species change such as her leaving angels can revive you.The most impressive dedication I’ve seen in person to a species was visiting old Jack Watleys discus room back in the early 90s. He had been working with them breeding from wild form to what we have today since he traveled down to get his breeding stock in 1963.

    I am 34 and i have kept aquariums for more than 2 decades. Its all about love. You are so attached with it that every individual fish becomes a family member. Some really grow big n some hatch numerous babies. You keep on adding tanks to make room for them or even build ponds. They deserve that. Lucky me, i have 10 tanks, very big and very small n a DIY pond too with a total of 200+ fishes. I m sure i will keep expanding bcoz my son is a bigger fish lover than me.

    My grandmother’s single aquarium is 73 years old. Only 2 additional dna added by my cousin in the 1990s, else, the colony of guppies is from ~1945. I took a few out to continue the colony and have been colony breeding my own since (adding a new dna set 2-3 times per year). Great to know grandma’s original are the founding dna of this new generation.

      You have a business. I don't get the e-begging for money. You spread the word of your business with EVERY video you put out. That should be enough reward from your CZcamsrs. I've watched your business grow and I truly like you, but this "support me" nonsense really has to stop. Especially from people that have money generating businesses. CZcamsrs that do nothing but create content is one thing. That's all they do. Please. Enough asking for money from your viewers.

    Does 42 years (plus import export business) count as being an OG? I would love to be Bonnies neighbor- we could have so much fun!

    • @genisisarmstrong5896
      @genisisarmstrong5896 Před 4 lety +1

      I think anything over 30 yrs exp would qualify as OG. So, your good 👌🏾 I have about 33 yrs experience. I'm an OG too 😎
