    Loved this! I know it's from 5 yrs ago but you answered the questions I had about guppy breeding strains etc. I'm most interested in breeding fancy guppies... among other things 😉 I'm inhaling all the info I can on small, like 2-tank breeding operations with guppies and basically whatever will go with guppies. Including plants. I'm lining things up slowly. Very slowly. I'm trying to be patient and not spend much money because my husband is already not thrilled with having TWO tanks 😅😅😅🤷‍♀️😊 so I'm gonna make the most of it. I'm running 2 Aquarium co-op filters in a 50-gallon with a bunch of cories and guppies and a pleco, a bunch of annubias, buce, swords, crypts, java windelov, java moss, jungle val... all slowly growing in, as well as a synodontis that will be moving soon lol. Love it, but it's eating my fry 😋 My other is a 29g planted with hairgrass, water sprite (?), java moss, and windelov and a nice cave. I have wood and rock and sand in both tanks. I can't decide what I want to do in the 29g. I can't decide if I'm going to move the guppies to the 29g. Lmao 😅 Forgive me. I digress. 😅 Carry on! While I go inhale more content!!!

    Great video Cory. I really am enjoying your guppy videos. I've kept many different fish in the past but I've just recently gotten into guppies because they are really fun to watch and breed. My main focus is on the albino koi guppy strain and I'm trying to fill my approximately 140gallon tank with them. Started of with 5 females and 5 males. It'll take some time to fill the tank up but I just got a female that gave birth to 20 fry so I'm looking forward to it. Keep up the great work!

    Great vid, i got a stock tank finally, and im keeping a common snapping turtle in it, and my dad said i need to bury it. He said it will bake in the summer and freeze in the winter. Its not going to free because i have a 550gph filter on it, this is a 110g stock tank

    Burying it will help with temperature swings. But you should design an overall plan. So maybe you bury it, maybe you create a glass top for it, to keep it warmer during the winter, but leave that off during the summer. You could also surround it with hay bales etc to keep it warmer.

    I would love to get some liberty mollies. they are like the closest thing to Muppies that you can get that still can breed. though my mountain swordtails probably wouldn't want to share a tank.
