Hi Kat
I really enjoyed this thread,. I also have a sick/weird blac,k ranchu, which I have never had before.He, or she, is having the same symptons, so I have him in a hopital tank, and on leval 3 salt treatment. Its day 5 so will do a water change. But he is floating at the top, and barley beathing. Did you add salt back, after water change? I also have not been feeding him, cuz I read to fast the fish if you suspect swim bladder. So, how is yours doing now? I really like your detailed posts...can you update? thanks

I know I am late to this topic, but I have been wondering if anyone has these fish, and is breeding them, other than Greg Sage, and a few on utube? I have asked Cory in live streams about this, cuz he is local to me, but haven't heard an answer. I was able to get a few here locally, and they were so unique, and rare, I have been researching, and its so interesting. So I have one male and 4 females, and about now have at least 2, and maybe 3 babies! I got to watch one being born last nite, and it was so exciting! Would love to hear anyone with experience, to share info. Thanks, diane

This event was awesome! We were so excited to meet and greet our favorite utube rock stars, up close and personnel. Dean is such a great co host and you guys all make an amazing team! I know it takes alot of time and effort, to accomplish the things you all do, while making it look effortless. Thanks so much, Aquarium Coop, for taking time for your fans! I do believe..."A great time was had by all!"

Very nice list! Love all the oddball fish you had there on saturday, too. Actually, love all your fish, they are always so healthy, and happy. And, thanks again for all your help, Robert. The bolivian rams are doing good, and your so right...more is better. The first ram I got(Butch) colored up instantly, when I brought the 3rd one home. Bright red and white strips on the fins even! Awesome fishes!

Thought someone working on breeding might be interested in seeing a method for spawning and raising Golden Opal Rams (Mikrogeophagus Ramirezi). We've tried many times to allow our adult Rams to raise their own fry without pulling eggs, but every time ended unsuccessfully. This way definitely can work, even if it's not the most natural. Hope someone finds it helpful!
You did a great job on these videos! Great explanations, and I lone how you did it all in steps. Thanks!

Definitely people have stopped by. The property was in really bad shape a few years ago. The person we bought it from got it back into shape mostly and we are continuing on that.
As for car I containers, there are some other homes in the neighborhood that have them. Lots of RV parking/garages and that type of stuff on peoples property because we are out of the way a bit and it’s commonplace compared to living in the city. Everyone does a good job of planting trees or privacy fences around the cargo containers to dress them up.
We have 2 cargo containers, instead of a garage...I was hoping they would have graffetti painted on them because it'd look cool, but didn't..Actually, we thought they were leaking, but it was major condensation. So, dehumidifiers are a must. Thanks for all the updates!

Robert, I was wondering if there is any platinum rice fish right now? Thanks so much, and for the updates!

I really need to drive up to Edmonds and "transfer" some of those Rams and Koi Angels for an "emergency" tank I've been working on.
The emergency was I really want those fish but didn't have a tank setup even remotely close to what they'd need. Just need to get the plants in and the weather to cooperate.

I like the look.
This is Beautiful!

Nice! would love to see these...next time I get a day to travel there

Thanks so much, for all the responses! Its reassuring to know that they shouldn't choke on gravel. I ended up with kinda course sand, but haven't put fish in yet. I still haven't gotten my pics from my phone, to this laptop, but will keep trying.

really nice to see pics !

Thanks so much Brandy, for your info. Things are doing better now, and all fish have been surviving well. Yes, I am in north WA. up by the border, but our water is wa different than seattle, I think. High PH, outa the tap, and 7.8 in all tanks.

Thanks so much for the response guys...and I should have included the parameters in my questions. This is a 20 gallon high, community tank, been established for a year. Ph is 7.8, Amonia and nitrites are 0, nitrates have been creeping up for a couple months, to between 40-80, sometimes higher. I have been doing 20-30% water changes, every 2 days, but nitrates never go below 40. I have one hob, and 2 small sponge filters. There is 10 cardinal tetras, 5 black neon tetras, 5 corys, and one female betta. Added cardinals, without qt., in May. I did run the maracyn for 5 days, and did the 50% water change yesterday. Everybody looks fine now. Could the nitrates be high, because of too many fish? I thought, since they were all small, and amonia and nitrites remained 0, that it would be ok.Oh, and it is heavy planted, but I haven't been using easy green, due to high nitrates, and the plants are not doing that great. I put some in yesterday, to see if the plants were doing better, then maybe it would help the nitrates. This is probably more info than you needed, but I would love your thoughts on this. Thanks.

well, he kinda flew across the tank at first, like he really wasn't happy at all. Maybe he did just wanna suck on it, but it freaked me out. I didn't know they did that! They are so funny, how they have there mouths open all the time. What do you recommend for a safe substrate? And thanks for your response!

Hi there! I am upgrading my 3 goldfish to a 40 gallon breeder (petco sale), and would like to know, what is the best substrate to use. I have 2 fancy fantails, and one feeder goldfish. They currently are in a 20 gallon long, and are about 2 1/2 inches. I have small-ish pebbles, with eco-complete underneath, so I could put plants, One of the fantails was able to get a rock, from the eco-complete, stuck in his mouth. When I picked him up, he got scared, and spit it out! I really don't want to worry about doing the hymlic on him, so I was hoping a goldfish member could let me know what they use for substrate. Or, is no substrate the best?I am new to keeping goldfish, so I appreciate any advice. Thanks so much!
Ranchu- just a weird breed or sick?

Oh wow...thats awesome to get a vets diagnoisis. I don't know of goldfish breaders near me, in Washinton. The ranchu I have(Mordie) has been fine for at least a year now, but has always been kinda weird. When I fed the other goldfish, he would swim the other way, looking for food to come to him. I figured he was just a dork. I am still going to try the merycin. Thanks so much for the update.!
