So cool! I have a spare 90 gallon stock tank and am definitely gonna do some white clouds in it now! I had no clue that they could overwinter with snow, thanks for the video!!! :)

Elliott Eiden - 6 years ago

awesome. i really appreciate this video. i have a big zoo-med turtle tub in my back yard that I was about to throw away. but not anymore. I cant wait to start building

Jeremy McReynolds - 6 years ago

This is why winter is the off season for me, not Summer. Summer is my season.

MDStorm123 - 6 years ago

Last year i hat my little pond. I put in 50 Red Fire and 35 Endler. I ended with 30 Red Fire, 20 Endler and over 300 dragonfly Larvae... this year i will have a wide net or something in my ponds... or any other tips?

Sakib Mahmud - 7 years ago

I was really contemplating setting up a pond, but now summers over and I live in Rhode Island, looks like I'll wait another year

Esteban - 7 years ago

Okay, totally doing a outside pond next season now!

Copper Canyon Aquatics - 7 years ago

@Aquarium Co-op, Cory where did you purchase your larger square tubs from?

Youn Kim - 7 years ago

A real dumb question, but what is a safe way to connect a sponge filter outside like that? I'd imagine a regular aquarium air pump and power cord/strip will probably break outside?

Ouch_my_neck - 7 years ago

Youn Kim I built a little shed with electric near my pond to house equipment out of the elements. It's slightly larger than a large dog house.

Not sure how many times I've watched this but it inspires me every time!

vietboi4lyf3 - 7 years ago

Hello thank you for all the wonderful imformation. I would like to raise bettas outdoor and would like your opinion on how low of a temperature would the fish be able to withstand? i am worried about the temperatures over night. i am shocked you can take your platies down to 35 degree at night. that is almost freezing!!!

Aquarium Co-Op - 7 years ago

+vietboi4lyf3 I pretty much quarantine everything, but in general since I quarantine before I put them out, I tend to not quarantine when they come back in as they go into their own tank anyways

vietboi4lyf3 - 7 years ago

do u quarantine the fish when you bring them back in for the winter?

vietboi4lyf3 - 7 years ago

Thank you!

Aquarium Co-Op - 7 years ago

I haven't done bettas, but I wager they can handle the 60s easily enough.

Tazawa Tanks - 7 years ago

Great presentation!

Susan Stark - 7 years ago

Learned more. Thanks!

you r the MAN

Tai N - 7 years ago

Hi Corey, you mention putting aquarium plants in your pond, but does it also work vice versa? Can I put some water lilys for instance from my pond into my aquarium tank?

Aquarium Co-Op - 7 years ago

Usually it's pretty difficult for us to provide enough light to them in doors.

Great talk. What about an old bath? :) Do rubbermaid sell the 80+ gallon ones here in the UK does anyone know? All I can find is hideously priced things.

April Wood Art and Pets - 7 years ago

I have watched this numerous times and still love to watch it. This was a great talk.

Aquarium Co-Op - 7 years ago

+April W I'm just waiting for some more sunny days

Pennie Wyatt - 7 years ago

Thank you for sharing this.!

Aquarium Co-Op - 7 years ago

+Pennie Wyatt glad you enjoyed it

Chuck - 7 years ago

How do you check for diseases in the tub?

Aquarium Co-Op - 7 years ago

Well the fish that go into them, I have quarantined before hand so it would be unlikely disease would start in there. But netting them and putting them in a specimen container for observation works.

Chuck - 7 years ago

Can you still grow plants if the pond is in the shade

Aquarium Co-Op - 7 years ago

Yes, even in the shade, the PAR is really high compared to our aquariums.

Chuck - 7 years ago

I didn't see guppies on the list for keeping them outside? Can that be done?

Aquarium Co-Op - 7 years ago

Yes, it can be done.

Danny's Aquariums - 7 years ago

32:20 OMG that Swordtail looks so nice!

Red - 7 years ago

worst predator I had was a Florida river otter. cleared out almost my whole pond. found out by walking in my backyard to around 25 colorful koi heads scattered around. ate 250 goldfish within a month. mind you these goldfish were an easy 12in long and the koi were around 20-30in. lucky I had a couple koi live that ended up breeding. almost drove me crazy for the month I spent with no sleep tring to scare off one of the smartest animals I've ever come across. I swear I made a little look out spot within about 5 feet from me that It would watch and wait for me to leave. this otter had the mouth of a pitbull and from head to tail was easily over 4-5 feet long. reminded me of a giant ferret.

ArowanaMan85 A - 7 years ago

wow, great information, totally want to try this next summer.

Aquarium Co-Op - 7 years ago

Yeah it's pretty low key and fun.

Third Coast Aquatics - 7 years ago

Great channel Cory! I've learned a lot. Do you have to dose your ponds ? Where do the nutrients come from?

Aquarium Co-Op - 7 years ago

Typically I start the season off with some fertilizer, but then try to rely on things falling into the ponds and food to be the nitrogen source.

Matthew Zhang - 7 years ago

great lecture. The larvae is a Predaceous Diving Beetle larvae, not a dragon fly larvae.

Aquarium Co-Op - 7 years ago

I think you're right on that

Occasional Aquatics - 7 years ago

Thank you so much for sharing that! I learned a lot. I'm super excited to be setting up a pond this Spring!

Aquarium Co-Op - 7 years ago

+Occasional Aquatics glad you enjoyed.

Phil Collins Jr. - 8 years ago

Good Afternoon Cory,

Regarding a minipond, I have a 30 gallon mini pond that I leave above ground. I live in PA, do you think its possible to prevent it from freezing?

Phil Collins Jr. - 8 years ago

Thanks for the response, It sounds like it may be better for me just to bring them inside.

Aquarium Co-Op - 8 years ago

You'd want to build it a little green house, put bales of hay around the outside of it, and a piece of plexi or glass over the top and you could probably do it.

Robbie Clipperton - 8 years ago

How long could most tropical fish live

Robbie Clipperton - 8 years ago

+Aquarium Co-Op as in temperature

Robbie Clipperton - 8 years ago

+Aquarium Co-Op oh I'm sorry I did not word that properly I meant how cold can they live cause I live in australia but in winter it snows and it get to about _3 Celsius on average so I wanted to keep them out for as ling as possible :-)

Aquarium Co-Op - 8 years ago

+Robbie Clipperton thats a hard question to answer, id say depending on species etc. 7 to 20 years.

Cadens Pet Room - 8 years ago

I'm in the audience lol

Chaotic Aquariums - 8 years ago

I just saw this presentation! I know im a little late kind of funny i've been watching you for a long time but I must have missed this video! Great presentation! Did you see any sort of fancy guppies or feeder guppies? Last time I was in florida I caught lots of wild sailfin mollies and some plecos maybe an oscar or two but never any more then that I have heard rumors of angels, arowanas all kinds of cichlids and even fancy guppies living in florida!

Aquarium Co-Op - 8 years ago

+Chaotic Gaming nice sounds fun.

Chaotic Aquariums - 8 years ago

+Aquarium Co-Op Haha well hopefully it'll get better I might post some stuff on my guppy tubs when I get them out and my betta fry I decided to breed bettas as it was something I wanted to do when I was a little kid many years ago kind of a bucket list to say after breeding cichlids livebearers and all kinds of fish I figure why not take it back to my first fish as a kid! I'll definetly get to posting some tub videos giving progress on all the tubs and what not

Aquarium Co-Op - 8 years ago

+Chaotic Gaming yep. Still too cold here for fish to go out.

Chaotic Aquariums - 8 years ago

+Aquarium Co-Op Lol im just a bit above florida we get plenty of gambusia here and there great and I of course love getting my guppies out mid may and taking them in late september perks of living in a pretty southern state.

Aquarium Co-Op - 8 years ago

+Chaotic Gaming I didn't see any guppies in the wild so to speak. I think the gambusia just out compete them in every water way.

Brotha, do you have any Lyonsi or festae at the shop?

Rico Suave - 9 years ago

have you tried to talk Shawn armentrout from aquatic support system?

J.Cruz671 - 9 years ago

+Aquarium Co-Op man, seems like shops are falling off. Ever since Kevin left a place for pets, the stock selection has gone down. Know of any place up in your area that does stock these types of fish?

Aquarium Co-Op - 9 years ago

+DJBAcHIGU No we don't stock anything like that at the shop. Would be special order only. We only carry plant friendly species of fish as that is our focus.
