    Default A few new videos..... Dec 16

    Well, as taking photos often takes a long time, I thought I'd share a few videos of what I've got at my place. Plus, people have been asking so here's part of what I have. Enjoy, below are mostly videos of my livestock eating.

    Here's the main discus tank (I've got another but this one has the majority of them) and this video is of them eating the mixed flake food I carry. Yum! There's a mix of large red Turquoise, yellow pigeon blood, blue cobalts, one blue diamond, red spotted, and I think that's it

    Here's the other discus tank plus the 4 different types of rams that I currently have (German blue ram regular and longfinned, gold ram, and balloon ram).

    This tank is really cool. It's the hatchets and the algae eating crew. The hatchets always stay just under the surface and never really come to the middle or bottom of the tank. They are great fish to get if you want something to utilize the top part of your tank. I've also got some sterbai corries in here as well as some mountain fan shrimps. The fan shrimps are great shrimps to have if you have larger fish as they are 2.5-3 inches long and won't harm fish as they have fans and not pinchers for feeding. However, what is really cool are the algae eating crew. If people recall, over the past few months my 75g tank with the hatchet fish was covered in black bearded algae. Some would have thought I purposefully grew it as it was neat to look at, however just after 1 week of introducing the amano shrimps and the Siamese Algae Eaters, all the beard algae disappeared! In fact, as soon as I released the amanos in the tank, they were on the sponge filters mowing away at the algae. Now, see for yourself the below video on how much algae is left

    Here's my Boesmani rainbow and South American Lungfish tank (my last one available). In case you're wondering, the pile of debris in the middle of the tank are the needles of the hornwart plant. As it piled in the center, the lungfish just loves resting in there.

    Here's my tank of large clown loaches, denisoni barbs, and my last large red spotted severum. They love to eat!

    Here's the longdinned rosy barb, rasbora espeii, apisto bitaneata, and electric blue ram tank. It's a busy tank!

    And this last one is one of my favourite tanks and it's my breeding group of King Tiger Pleos (L-066)and a few cardinal tetras. in this tank there's a lot of plecos in here as the adult king tigers are always breeding. Every time I check the caves there's always at least one cave that has a clutch of fry/eggs in it. In fact, as I was filming there were 3 different caves with 3 different staged clutches of babies. That's cool! If you don't believe me, just check out the below video and all the different staged babies darting around.

    I guess I should have looked at some of the other tanks while I was there. But I was absolutely fascinated with the L066 tank. If you have not seen pleco clutches, you must go and see these at Patrick's house. They're pretty amazing.

    The Amanos were also huge. If my fish didn't regularly destroy Amanos, I would have gotten more.
