tanks off the ground so to be it customers eye level so we got them on
concrete blocks it brings them up and then we put a whole new filtering system
in and we're able to carry a twice the varieties and twice the volume that we
used it so you double the size of your freshwater room yeah we double the
capacity because of the filtration system oh I gotcha
awesome man let's take a look around obviously we got some sweet peacocks in
here yeah we just got a shipment innocent peacocks that we've got the
peacocks you got some labs you were telling me some crazy story about back
in the day you had the clown loaches that it got blurry in them from we're
always to go to Indonesia and I went to a farm in Indonesia
literally they had clown loaches that were size of footballs while they were
trying to breed them that's awesome did they ever interbreeding yeah you're
starting to bring them in everybody's cool what else we got here these are

some cherry the pearl cherry collarbone Wow they look happy just got you really
even color up Lane one yeah I figured the Reds going to be
pretty intense and they got great hitters already developed for how young
they are nice oh we've got a little little little guppy action little plan
to take action to those Guppies are hot man whoa yeah where'd you get that angel
fish that's guys no joke that's just a local really yeah we that's a
good-looking square I know all the full article stripes on that Wow
let's go looking fish see what kind of seal Figgis is that these are the ultros
got them in they were actually great they're wild cop but they're raised in a
Florida farm I got to grow up and then down here down here we got just some
Tetris some new potted plants we're trying to put them in mud and do a
little bit of research with the mud and see if we can get more success in the
product plant all right louver the book and for those rummy knows I saw a second
over here yeah I'm loving that you got a whole nice supply of rummy knows man
these are very nice size rubbing those oh nice yeah those are awesome
well you got a lot of there and for those of you don't know rummy those are
your low school like they stay real low so they're pretty hot and then your
Cardinals yeah Cardinals are no joke either I want to show these Angels too
it's going to come out in the camera but yeah that looks pretty good and then
what do you got a pocket some English Japanese we got in some the electric
drill paris-nice no 200 fish dollars you've got a traumas
in there and I do that if it's those awesome man
you're kind that is packet or use I'm gone flame came in as a flame alright
another couple of nice angel that's a falling pair yeah lot of times it'll do
is I get the brought some images and we're going to spawn and then we'll sell
them but people want to start breeding with some breeding pairs of discus that
we have for sale to you know let's go check those discs out I got a lot of
districts people on my channel yo these are no joke right here these are now by
no red up in the top there first time I've had those in here dude those are
haha yeah and what just to be fair they just came in they haven't even been here
for 24 hours so I think once I get them stabilized the color is going to be even
more magnificent than it already is well if you'd like people can get discus
all over online and everything so like you know why should someone come in here
and buy a fish like that from you well the thing is here we literally feed
these fish 5 to 6 times a day we have 5 6 different foods we feed them and we
really get them well conditioned and acclimated to the tank so that when
people get them home we're going to have a lot better a lot better fish than
efficiency set up at a facility that's not really being taken care of and fed
six times a day yeah and do and actually they're fed so well here that a lot of
them will end up pairing off and then we end up the breeding pair right these two
here are pairs that came in they didn't come in as breeding pairs they just came
in and because they were here for three four months and conditioned so well yeah
they started spawning yeah we actually had crime globally that's bad and just
to show you guys like this is a no joke setup this isn't like some random thing
like you got what's the six we talked about this a second ago what's I mean
what's the gallons here like you got this is we have many systems and big sis
right here is a four hundred gallon mini discus system 450 500 gallon system but
we also haven't hooked up we do water changes daily with ro/di water yeah we
do a small water change every day no kidding so the fish can come in they
could be beat off you power feed them then their money because you're getting
a fish it's well fed and also well filter you don't have that big
- like the problem is most people get an undernourished fish a store and they
don't have a filtration system big enough to really power feed them to turn
them around so these fish are awesome man these discus with hot food looking
real good you don't never done a discus tank I've always talked I've always
thought about it I just never popped it up this high now when we start out when
we started keeping them in ro/di water we just did the amount of success just
really yeah is that so that's the advice of dead people with discus you keep them
in tomorrow what percentage are Orr oh yeah ro/di really Hardy I means it's
less than five parts per million of Gunks in the water and if you look just
look here this is Dayton Ohio tap water okay and if you look at it right most
cities for water is about 425 parts per million of gunk and a wife we have guys
that work here and clean these tanks weekly you can see all the calcium the
lime deposits there's all kinds of brown algae then you look at this tank it's
it's not clean anymore Riley in the same amount but that much less work we have a
look at how clear the tanks in the glass right so what parts per million is a
district area less than five parts per your Y to get it down to plus and 5.0
fooling man you got some nice little small angels in here these are some of
the red boys there's young but they're starting to show a lot of red fur
they're got some bomani across see Alice for my planet egg people back here got
some gold anubias ship that in just for dust that's right got the old Anubis
valve on dustinsfishtanks.com from my man John by getting me some good stuff
loving it and then uh what else we got going all you got the nice little brush
our DS in here some lamps can cross this up oh whoa I didn't see that little fish
nice got some frogs I saw Oh what are these loaches man of these yo-yos or
both wait now these are the those are the Angelica's proteasome angelicus yeah
there's about four or five different types I've got some of the because this
yeah look like you do like yo yo is to me like robusta boccia here a lot of
them similar but when they get a little older then you'll see the distinct
difference in their pattern all right you had them in the Lakatos and Angelica
sort a small size they're similar gotcha Ted Stander's nice was it haha
yeah love the filtration here dude I love the way you got it segmented off
and everything that's really go for on nice we do a big business on african
cichlid do you yeah is it the Ohio cichlid Belt as they call it I think it
gives the high pH or the hard water around this area just makes for breeding
sickness pretty decent easy I won't get my electric blue jack dempsey
yeah we like to do a lot of buy one get one freeze around here so we did this
week we've got the electric we've got chemistry
small red kappa Rhonda's does it go
one thing to does there's a lot of fish it obviously we can't see in this video
yeah you know we have captive bred synod honestok or loaded guys we're going out
of the tubes here I'd have to get a mask on are in the tubes
you know there's after break the biggest thing is when a lot of people come in
here when they buy online you know they can just click it go from picture to
picture and they see a cool fish there's hundreds of fish in here that
people don't even realize we have here because it's just you know PVC pipes
right here's a perfect example we got a tie grunts if you run a small Thai grass
together eating a fat fish man we're eating blood worms krill and doing
really well sometimes you know it hard to throw it on the scale dude iced all
those live in Peru that's it take right this is that thing is awesome man does
get monster but still what else y'all you're like you know we'll have fire
wheels some Lord if I would Brian do you had fire eels on that big ol loach those
big vultures are money too wow those are cool dude what are these what's up with
these buffers man you just got those and these are pretty rare not rare but you
don't seem that up with a moped blast oh yeah the GlassFish today do these
puppies no need any salt then those are the pure no no no you can put them in
salt you can put them in fresh the biggest misconception on the on the
figure-eight popper the puffer is the problem is with most people when they
have them is they don't feed them enough and then they go around and they pick on
the fins of the other fish these little puffers can almost eat their body weight
daily will give them each puffer here can eat a whole piece of krill the size
of them good yeah no foolin I don't know that were that big yeah they don't chase
around the other fishing that nice boy lookin rainbows
we have a lot of picasa mist in here one of the things about my blue costumes
is a lot of stores will sell like a two inch Picasso us but I've been doing this
for over 27 years importing fish and you know when you take a flick ausmus out of
the pond at 2 inches they just don't do well they're just too young so what I
like to do is that get them up to three inches where I know the customer is not
going to have any problems at all with them
so you pay $9.99 instead of $6.99 but you're not going to lose them because I
always try to get size I try to bring in fish to the size where I know my
customers not going to have a problem right you've been doing it's 27 years in
this warehouse I've been 20 so I and then another 12 years I was it pets to
put it over the water what is that got for 10 ofoma sue this is Africa Wow then
