Unfortunately its really hard for me to do trades like that and why I didnt trade with the guy in the stream trying to trade.

L.R.Bretz's Aquatics - 6 years ago

Thanks River Rockhound!

How do you get the ratio of plants to fish right so that the plants take in all the ammonia and cutoff the nitrogen cycle? Btw love your tanks!

L.R.Bretz's Aquatics - 6 years ago

Theres no magic numbers or ratios and so many variables to look at it like that. Read what I wrote above and will explain it more. The way I keep the tanks is natural and the ferts only feed the plants which arent completely necessary. Once you have the environment going it sustains itself with the variable differences, water changes also make a difference.

L.R.Bretz's Aquatics I checked that video out but didn’t really get the answer or info I was looking for. Would love to get your thought on plant stock to Fish stock to manage nitrogen cycle. No ferts or anything just all natural with filtration. Tank on!

L.R.Bretz's Aquatics - 6 years ago

Thanks! For starts you get the tank cycled and going with plants first then add fish slowly here and there and it all balances itself out. The plants and fish have a very symbiotic relationship that takes care of the extra ammonias and nitrates and if they plants arent eating the excess algae will to help balance it naturally. I have a video how I do one day instant cycles not to far down my upload list which I would recommend watching.

I have another dumb question but anyway can shrimb be fat ??? not by babies but like fat man lol

L.R.Bretz's Aquatics - 6 years ago

Lol as they get older they can get really big, especially the females. But for the most part they dont really put on weight from eating just from maturity.

Dude what are those in the thumb nail?

L.R.Bretz's Aquatics - 6 years ago

Synodontis Lace Cats. I got them as babies and they got huge in my 180 bow living off shrimp and snails that naturally all coexisted in the tanks amongst many other fish.

Hey Gary Lange will be the speaker at CCAC in August. I asked Chris if he could make it happen and by god he did.

L.R.Bretz's Aquatics - 6 years ago

Dude thats awesome! You know I will def. be there! Thanks for the heads up!

david w - 6 years ago

why would you avoid aquatic arts?

L.R.Bretz's Aquatics - 6 years ago

Personally why I wouldnt is that I try to steer clear from imports if possible. Also it can be a gamble and turn and burn operation. I have heard many good things and bad things. They do have good selection and is a good option for people that dont have many other options.
