Can't believe you fell for that hahaha

PERFECT> Love it. Blake did 10 great tools from the Dollar Store. Your 10 great finds at GOODWILL is perfect. My next video will be 10 great fish room tools you can find in your local dumpster.

Heck yeah we have many of these sorts of stores by us and check them out all the time....especially for lights!!!!

I give a lot of donations to Goodwill, never thought about going inside to look for things for the fish hobby.

Checked Amazon today. The white book is $600 new and $35 used. The blue book is $80 used. Great ideas for little money...my favorite combination!!!

LOL at the Co-Op towel... crazy.

That orange thing is a fryer basket to bake french fries and stuff you want crispy...haha. Whatever works :)

Great video. Would of never thought of going to good will for any fish related items. Thanks for sharing.

Love your video collaborations

Thanks Tony 😊

This was great fun (and inspiring)! Loved the almost equal billing of houseplants and tanks in that extraordinarily homey fish room. Thanks for putting in the effort to show us this.

Love this! I've scored a few "hides" for my fish that were sold as candle holders or mini planters. Decked out my tank for $5 ! Thanks for the inspo!

Always enjoy the shenanigans. Cool tip on fixing those jars!

Never thought of looking for books at GW. Helpful, thanks!

I have to start searching good will more I have found aquarium stands that they had as tables lol

On my way!

Looks like it was a fun outing and some good finds! Thrift stores are great for rummaging in! Thanks

Love the Goodwill, lots of great things fish and non fish related.

Some great ideas! Got to love those stores

Looks like you made out well with some nice scores! That 3 gallon beverage container is so sweet. I gotta find one, one of these days. The replacement spigot on amazon suggestion is a gold nugget! I really like when channels bring in a guest for their videos like this. Not that there's anything wrong with the regular vids. I enjoy them thoroughly. Just adds a little something which I enjoy. Of course it's got to be the "right" guest. I like when I see you on an Aquarium Co Op vid. Like everyone else, I enjoy when Dean makes an appearance here. But Dani is super great as well. I'd love to start seeing her on other channels. That would be so fun. I know you and Jimmy are buds. It would be nice to see him as well. Love that guy.

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the video, and appreciate the compliments! We definitely have plans for more to come.

A lot of great ideas and finds ! One other thing I like to do for further discounts is on Senior citizen discount days at the thrift stores I take my parents and have them cash out for my buys . It is amazing all the great things you can get at Goodwill and such ! 👍🏼🐟🌱

Nice video got alot of ideas.

I got started in this hobby with a $20 5g tank at value village 👍 great place for aquarium gear Just picked up an amazing curve face 30g tank and gear for free along the road 🙌

We pretty much got junk at our goodwill but I might start looking for more now.

I go to thrift stores for a living for my business now you gave me something else to look for there thanks 😂

You guys must have hit right after a fish person donated some stuff- great finds! Especially the books and the Co-op towel! And the lamp!

Omg the books. SCORE SCORE SCORE

Yard sales are another excellent source for hobby related items, or things that can be repurposed for hobby use, and a lot of times if nobody has shown any interest in an item, the yard sellers tell me...just take it, we need this junk gone. Serious fish folks are very creative and thrifty, which makes sense. I'd rather spend my money on higher dollar good quality fish. 👍💓👍

Estate Sales too, but be willing to dig. For whatever reason I keep stumbling across metaframes, have two each of the 5g and 10g and regretfully had to pass up an all original 40g setup with its slate intact.

Lol who donated the Co-Op Towel? Something I also find at GoodWills is any cheap frames that have glass coverings. Those can be great glass tops for aquariums!

@@danidoeslife2290 I’ve been breeding elassoma evergladei and it’s a real fun and easy fish to breed. All I really do is put a pair in a 2 gallon nano “tank” with a butt load of moss and hornwort. I then feed live baby brine shrimp everyday and fry just appear. The only thing about them is they are super reclusive and skittish. If you seriously want to get into pygmies check out Aquabid and there is a seller by the name of “Houseofrivs” who almost always has some

Yes! Slate bottom? That's awesome. I have found a few 5 and 20 gallon longs and my odd sized 15 gallon. Bring them home, water hold test, and still going 2 years later. Just have to make sure it's aquarium vs. Reptile tanks, with the thinner glass.

The old slate bottom framed tanks can be fixed by filling with hot water from the water tank and adding a quart or two off boiling water then drained it when cold. It works almost every time

Hello...when reading reviews on the Xtreme fishfood someone mentioned the preservative that's in it and gave it a bad review. I'm a newb and after further research I realized the preservative is in most fish food. Wondering what your thoughts on this are. Thanks.
