Use white oak. That's what catfish baskets are made out of. You still have to soak them.

Could always build a base for the letters to sit on and have the base weighted so it sinks.

B Vlogs good idea

Try doing those letters on a piece of plexiglass. drill holes in the plexiglass, screw the letters onto some bolts and bury the plexiglass in the gravel. You already drilled the holes. You can use those same holes. the bolts and plexiglass will act as an anchor.

Love the videos👍🏽 I look forward to every Tuesday

In my tanks all wood items are anchored to slate with adhesive. Love your videos.

I love that name, and you’re videos! Can’t wait to see the new tank look.

I used the same silicon on my salt tank and no problems. nice video!

Always enjoy tank Tuesday

Love the tank Tuesday videos! You should have the letters floating at different heights on some fishing line!

This had to be the funniest video you've ever done, love the channel 🐠🐠

Thx for the vid

Another awesome tank Tuesday!!!

Very exited for a new aquascape video

You could always silicone the letters each to their own little stone or piece of tile if you want to place them in random places in the tank. You could also silicone them all to one stone or piece of tile if you want them sat in a specific place

You should superglue some 1 or 2 ounce weights on the bottom of the letters and just hide it under the sand

I mentioned siliconeing the letters to slate stone or tiles about 3 or 4 different videos they would have stood perfectly straight and they would not have been able to been bumped around then you could have grown some weeds through them or behind them

Moby is awesome!! Great video!

I love watching your videos. thank you.. I would love to get a big tank for my house and do the same.. looks like a lot of fun, and work.. I'm into that. thank you for your time, videos, most of all Thumbs up :-)

Love your vids

Love your videos 5:25 "What!" too funny keep it up .

Not to sound rude but I laughed my ass off when that letter floated in the tank...twice.

Lol when you said “except for the crappie” I was thinking the same thing😂

What I have done in the past is screw a nice size piece of slate to the bottom and bury it under the gravel, so you'll not only have the weight of he slate but also the gravel above it. slate is super thin so it could be completely undetected .

the place i buy drift wood from they screw slate to the drift wood to keep it down in the tank. its not a bad idea looks pretty good to.

You guys made me want a tank really bad so I asked for one for my b-day and I have cichlids in it. THANK YOU

Nice video enjoyed watching :)

We had Bream Breed in a pond not that big, get some more and it is fun to Micro Fish in it too.

You probably figured it out by now but I had a chunk of drift wood I thought It would get water logged again and sink. It floated in my aquarium for months. I had to bury a rock and tie it to it in the end. A long rock (paving stones) you could tie the letters to and hide it under the substrate

Very cool video!! I did some research about your water logging problem, and what you tried is all I could find. Except for one thing that said it could take many years (I hope not). That’s all I can find, I’m sorry. On the side note I would like to see how Moby would react to mini lures. Thank you, and keep on trying!!

I am a new subscriber I love these vids.

I have never laughed at letter failures so much! *LOL*

You should put suction cups on the back of each letter and stick them to the back wall of the tank.

You could use the floating letters to your advantage. You could tie a string to the bottom of each letter and let them float in the tank half way-ish up, or even a few inches up. I think that'd look pretty cool. Thoughts?

BamaBass just mount those letters to a thin flat piece of stainless and the gravel on the bottom of the tank will hold the letters down. You could even adjust how high or low they sit doing it that way

Eeee! So cool!

What kind of wood is it? You may need to look up the buoyancy of the type of wood to counter it's floating rate. A long piece of PVC pipe halved lengthwise and silicone the letters to it. The open side of the pipe would snug down into the substrate, the letters should stay. if needed then also affix some slate/ rock/tile to the pipe.

Buy some tungsten bar stock in heavier wights like four or five oz. Paint them the same color as the letters and glue the bar stock to the bottom of them.

mount the letters to a stainless steel or brass bar altogether and spaced right then drop in. cover brass bar with your sand and rock.

You could have a piece of metal with holes in it and tie the letters like that and let them float or hover in the back but cover the metal with the little rocks and make it look like that

I would like to see more fishing videos from you guys..

You could use fishing line and tie rocks to weight the letters down. And then hide the rocks under the gravel so you can't see the rocks

You could always put suction cups on the back of the letters. That I would think would hold them down with no problem. No different than putting a glass temp gage in the tank. It's a thought Bama Bass.

What if you made a neon light fixture that reads Bamabass behind the aquarium, like the open signs stores use

Bamabass what about attaching magnets on the letters and setting them on the back of the tank like and algae cleaner

almost at 200,000 subs!!!

Can you use the silicon to put decoratins on the sides of the tank or would it be too unbalanced/ heavy.

Do what we usually do for fishyanks. White light grates. Tie it to the letters. Bury white crate in gravel. Cover with gravel. Job done

It can take a while for the letters to re-water log. I have a piece of wood i moved to a new tank that i let dry for a day and it took 3 days to resink. I would leave one of your letters in as a test.

What kind of food do you feed the baby catfish . What do you use for the fish tank like cleaner for the water

Get a canister filter for that pond they sell them pretty cheap on amazon get a canister with a uv light and make sure you use carbon as a bio media inside as well as ur sponges and lava rock or whatever you may use the uv light, filtration and carbon will help clear that water up

Cool

The 'B' in Bass is upside down.........LOL.......entertaining video

You should get a uv clarifier for the pond so the water can be crystal clear

you could always get Bama Bass made out of a sheet of stainless steel for a reasonable price! that way it will sink and look good in the tank you could even add a waterproof LED to light it up! who else would like to see that??????

stainless steel often has a layer of oil

Maybe try boiling the letters. It usually helps driftwood sink. Or tie natural rocks to it instead. Rocks bigger than the letter of course

Drill holes on some tile skates and put screws to the bottom of each letter and bury the tile slates.. that’s what I do with most all my drift wood

What type of bait should I use to catch bass and bluegill

What kimda paint did he use because that could be keeping it from be coming waterlogged

What gallon of tank would you suggest for a bass like Moby and a couple 3 inch blue gills

Why not use some 8oz or 10oz lead snagging sinkers? I think it would look really Cool! I imagine they would need coated with something. Love the weekly videos!!

Pure silicone sets up under water and it will also set up in the freezer and against wet objects.

I think that you should just attach the letters to a board(s) and cover the board(s) with the tank gravel. It would make it easier to get them in and out all at once too.

Why not drill a small tile plate into each one? Probably can find an old tile lying around somewhere. That's what I do with new driftwood pieces until they're fully waterlogged then I remove it.

do you think your fish like it in the the big tank or the wild better, and will you ever release them in to the wild again

Maybe try and silicone them to some of that dragon stone? It could look pretty cool. Just a thought?

I have a bass and a crappie the size of moby... Im sure you live in texas near me i would give them to you... Also get a siren in mobys tank they are so cool i own 2 of the

How about some one inch wide by 3/8 thick strap steel maybe 2 ft long. Screw the letters to the strap steel.

If you must sink them just drill a bunch of holes. Swiss cheese them till they loose their buoyancy. Then fill the voids with silicone smooth them out with the puddy knife. And a fresh paint job. But you should probably just build a stand with dowel rods to attach them that is hidden under the substrate. Otherwise you will be forever fixing them. Your fish get pretty rowdy at feeding time.

I have never seen someone have so much trouble sinking wood. lol. If sinking fails, I like the suction cup idea so they can stick to the wall.

I subscribed and hit the bell

You should tie some suction cups to the bottom of the letters

I was rooting for your letters to sink. You could try screwing the letters to pieces of slate rock with some stainless steel screws. I use those to weigh down larger pieces of driftwood. You can bury the slate in the substrate and it won't be so noticeable.

This is a great idea! Even though they are waterlogged, they are just too buoyant - even with the weights he added.

Have you ever considered making a saltwater tank with Redfish and Snook?

Are you going to a smallmouth video this spring or summer like you said?

Outlaw welcome to the bama bass family

You guys should tie fishing line to the bottom and have them float in the bottom of the tank like grass

If you determined to use them, one other opinion is to use a dial rod to connect bama and then bass together. Also may can put a frog in between the letters. One soild peace. If that dont work. you going need white oak.

I am frustrated with mine too. I am trying to breed Green sunfish and all they want to do is attack each other.

How did u first start fishing for bass and why

try magnets under the tank and on bottom of letters

U should try to feed the Bonnie and Clid and sherif seafood

Hey Bam are you sure use clear silicone

What do u feed the minnows?

IDEA/SUGGESTION FOR YOUR "BAMA BASS" WOODEN LETTERS: Use some kind of metal strip that you KNOW is heavy enough to overpower the buoyancy of the wood letters. Carefully do a lay-out for where you'll need to drill holes through the metal strip so that the letters will be spaced properly when screwing the metal strip to the bottom of the BAMA BASS letters. ALSO, PRE-DRILL SMALL PILOT HOLES IN THE WOOD, SO THE SCREWS DON'T SPLIT THE WOOD. INSTALL THE SCREWS UP THROUGH THE BOTTOM OF THE METAL STRIP INTO THE BOTTOM OF THE LETTERS. Maybe even leave enough space a 1/2" to 3/4" space between the metal strip and the bottom of the letters, enough to HIDE the metal strip under the tank gravel, yet the letters will still be in full view above the gravel. The fish won't be able to move it, because it will all be a single piece, and the whole thing can easily be removed ( for easy cleaning ) or re-positioned elsewhere in the aquarium. PROBLEM SOLVED. ( If you were to decide to leave a space between the bottom of the letters & the metal strip to leave room for gravel to hide the strip as I suggested above, you could still use the silicone to alleviate any "play" that may result where the screws run through the metal strip. For that matter, use the silicone at every junction to make everything a nice tight fit with no movement or play. ) TIP: IF YOU CAN REMOVE THE TUNGSTEN WEIGHTS, YOU COULD STILL USE THE EXISTING HOLES YOU ALREADY DRILLED INTO THE LETTERS, AND USE THE RIGHT SIZE "BOLTS" INSTEAD OF SCREWS. AGAIN.....SILICONE COULD STILL BE USED TO MAKE EVERYTHING FIT SNUG & SOLID WHEN THE SILICONE DRIES. I believe it's looking like that is your only alternative to get those letters to stay in proper position on the bottom. Ya have to keep in mind, if you use some other method where the letters will be UN-attached from each other...........they WILL get moved & jostled around somehow, probably by the fish feeding aggressively. But if the letters all share a common base, any movement will be impossible. USE DARK COLORED METAL & HARDWARE......OR PAINT BARE SILVER COLORED METAL WITH A BROWN OR BLACK WATER-PROOF NON-TOXIC PAINT ( if such a thing is available ).........

another method would be to hollow out the back of the letters so it'd be less bouant... router or dremel works well

Reminds me of stories of people trying to DIY suspending jerkbaits from days gone by. Speaking of which, wouldn't it be awesome to have the BamaBass lettering suspend?

Lol they would just sink then

U should put a small pacu in the 300 gallon

Tie some clear mono on to the letters and put a weight at the other end of the line and they will sink

To get the letters to sink you need to take a pressure washer and put the end of the pressure washer right in the letters and turn it on

Why didn't you use clear silicone?

Maybe when you drilled the holes, added the sinker, and silicon, you created small air pockets that is causing it to float? Or at least making it hard to sink.

try glueing slate to the bottom...

Where did you get your 300 gallon tank from

screw the letters to a piece of slate. then you can set it the way you want and it will sit in the tank exactly the way you want it to sit.

Hey buddy, should've put the silicone in first before putting in the weights

For how long will you keep the bass

the letters not sinking.... PRICELESS.

What kind of wood are the letters made of?

Where did you purchase your aquarium?

You could Put the letters in boiling water then put them in cold water. Repeat it a couple of times
