When I was a kid I spawned blue turquoise discuss. Really good fish that can really add to your stocks, And fun to breed.

QuebecCichlides - 5 years ago

ABDUL RAHMAN - 5 years ago

Great video. Very informative.Great job. Tons of hardwork. Looking forward for unboxing video on discus.

Upside diy - 5 years ago

Always awsome videos, about this business. I'm so fishnet (sky net in terminater) joke. Because richElle like Sarah connor. Amazing rare fish place, thanks for all the tips. T days last Thursday of November in usa. We have wild turkeys in california. Hahaha halloween this month, seasons greetings

QuebecCichlides - 5 years ago

Thank you for your comment. Why am I like Sarah Conor? (other than the fact that I'm a badass)
Since I have a store, a drip system is the best for water changes as well. I have to calculate the time my employees take to do it. For heating, I use a heater because it needs to be hot but the room temp is 25C :) It cuts costs a lot.
I have many individual tanks and only put fish I'm sure of in my systems because of the risk of illness. With all the filtration and care my tanks get, I don't have too many health issues ;)

Upside diy - 5 years ago

Sump systems are technically a risk. They're just big hob filters for multiple tanks,(unllike in reef tanks) now a days. people are going to prefer avoiding contamination, or not the right meds , for individual sump tanks. Since there is a sump you will have to consider the advantages. As a good heater and filtration for many tanks. The electricity water bills aren't always low, and have to be considered month to month, especially if you need solar/wind back up plan, for many uses in today's builds, Good luck on those costs.

Happy Holiday to you. Great editing on the video and great hosting.

The Budget Aquarist - 5 years ago

Lots of work...but lots of fun! In look forward to seeing the fish!

The Budget Aquarist - 5 years ago

+QuebecCichlides Yeah...i have never raised them. Maybe some day, but I fear paying so much and losing a fish. Not that I have bad luck like that...I'm just cheap! I'll just admire yours for now.

Thanks for the advise. I bought some medicated fish food with praziquantel for them. I'm feeding that at first until I transfer them to their usual beef hearts.

Paul Cox - 5 years ago

Great video, love the drip system, it's definitely the way forward if you can get the water to and from your tank. For a house aquarium a Herbie drain might be better. That 2 inch drain will never get blocked but l bet it's noisy! Really looking forward to seeing the discus.

QuebecCichlides - 5 years ago

Thanks for the comment. There's so much background noise in the store that it goes unnoticed lol. They're fabulous. I can't wait to show them off!

Catfish Cave - 5 years ago

Can't wait to see the new discus - wild caught?

Catfish Cave - 5 years ago

My mistake - I don't know discus and never heard of Stendker (I looked it up). I misunderstood your accent to be what I do know - which was alenquer. So... are you getting in one of line bred color morphs or a more natural looking type? Or is it top secret and I must wait for the video? You're such a tease!

Stendker

Yahoooooo Richelle finally gets some discus!!! American cichlids have so much more class then those africans. Ha ha. Can’t wait to see them in your new system. I’ll get video of my system up on my channel one of these days...it’s working great. Btw. Are you at the aquatic Experience now?? I forgot all about it and made other plans.

Upside diy - 5 years ago

I had a tuff time just remembering her name and it all just reminded me to mention. When I was a kid we had spawning blue turquoise discuss. very good fish that actually held fry in their mouths. Just a few spawning fish and your aquariums will be super stocked.

Thank you. Discus are the best!
