Did your son eventually get a tank.
I love this haven't looked into your older videos but finding the unboxing with the first update and this one has been great.
A true way on getting younger people interested in the hobby!

it would be nice for everyone
Yeah you need plenty more light for java fern, like near a window. I trashed all mine because it trashed up my tank with leaf and root litter; did NOT look nice on white sand. Now I just get neater plants with big leaves.
When I got ghost shrimps a while back, my friend was there for the setup. She said they looked like boogers so she named them "Oogie, Boogie, and Snot." As if I can tell which is which. They're usually shrimp #1, 2, 3,4, etc.

Open your fish shop there!!!
a vlog about her aquarium Hobby and how freaky it is having a dad like you :-)
I'd recommend a Cichlid Tank for her next Aquarium
You should let your daughter take over your channel it's real it cool
Yes that's pretty overstocked
I had to dose my tank so heavily after introducing a rubber lip pleco that I killed one of my pictus catfish, now there are two healthy ones and I am yet to get a new one (maybe I am the one that sucks at owning plecos).
The only thing I buy for algae is chinese algae eaters and I use them like they're expendable, since they're cheap. When it starts sucking onto my fish, out it goes.
I'm enjoying shrimp and fish keeping hobby and I really like some of your ideas and your creativity.
I've done one for myself because I had the same issue - fish in my tank eat all babies and I made a little nursery and now I'm moving berried shrimps upstairs and that quite fun to see tons of babies in that little box, you don't need to clean it if you do a regular WC you can just put small amount of moss and a piece of cholla wood for decoration and for small hiding place. You just need to mount a short cut of LED strip on the shelf above with the switch or connect it to the main light, but I'm sure it's piece of cake for you.
Also benefit of the box:
You don't need to worrying to sucking babies in the tube when you clean the gravel too.
The box also works as a filter you probably know this and not me telling you, this is your cup of tea.
Let me know if you up to and I can send you a some pictures or even can make a video of my breeding box.
And I think also your daughter can make some money on the tank and food experience by selling the shrimps, they become more and more popular this days and in Canada too.
You listen to your subs, and I am grateful for that.
Keep it up!
I work for a pet store and its fun teaching interested little kids about aquariums and how to do stuff, it feels good passing on the hobby to a new generation. (showing and teaching some y'all adults can be a pain, my gosh! lol)
BTW, Hailey is clearly the star of the operation. You should just let her do the videos from now on. :)
Yeah, I have, too, but it's real hit or miss with Bettas. Some are fine with tankmates, while others put on goalie masks and change their name to "Jason"...
and if Hailey new the algae is good for the baby shrimp she may feel better about it.
I never imagined I would ever advice for you.Stange world
I was talking about the minerals from tap water, doesn't your GH ever go down? if not that's awesome, I'm gonna try it.
Im currently in the process of setting up the first aquarium in my family home . . . my kids (3 years old and 1 year old) could not be any more excited. Hopefully I can create them a tank they love for our living room.
I love them little guys.
quick tip: the algae blooms because of the blue light ;)
Great job keep it up :D
Doesnt matter if its a mess it would be cute as hell. Maybe you can write the bulletpoints, but not direct her step by step.
I'm sorry sir, bur 60 liter tank is too small for goldfish. One standard goldfish per about 100 liter. They or it is going to grow huge in short time forcing you to buy bigger tank in about 2 years. :C Unless they get all sick and die, in 60 liter it wouldn't be surprise. Goldfish are known to live 15 years with good care. I'm so sorry that the location you got your fish didn't tell you about their needs. It is not your fault. There is this channel on youtube called "Solidgold" they have more info about goldfish care.
do you run carbon? the water looks a bit brown/yellow ish. probably just the bog wood but maybe carbon could help?
Keep up the great vids!
I hope the "Big" blue LFS in my area survives.
He lives in a community (big) aquarium (also with 2 big fish like Hoplosternum Thoracatum.. but they are peaceful so no problem) but he is also not scared when I try to clean the aquarium with him in it.
All my other fish run scared in a corner but he doesnt. He even follows my hand.. This is quite an interactive fish! Even if they don't live a lot (lifespan) they are great and beautiful !
Also when I buy one I'm quite happy.. because I save them from a life in a bowl or a frickin jar ! (or a IittIe cup like in PShops)
It wouldn't be too noticeable, but the whole tank is surrounded by white- white walls, white sand, it makes the brown stick out. If they added a black backdrop or a standard aquarium background, it wouldn't look quite as dark.
