Update on all my North American Native fish tanks

[cmn8bird427]

just letting u know thats a large mouth bass

[MisterCatfish]

@cmn8bird427 I assure you it is not a largemouth. I have been keeping natives for 15 years and have fished all my life. I have studied and properly identified every fish I have come in contact with. They are my passion.

i want a tak with bass and bluegill.

When are u going to post another vid

[MyNativeFish]

what kind of sand do you have in the 150? do you have 2 layers with dirt and then sand?

im looking to put sand in a 180 that im hoping to get soon. and i never dealt with sand before.

[MisterCatfish]

@MyNativeFish I have about two inches of kitty litter then I have play sand over that. Don't use play sand.it is too fine and will be stirred up and sucked into your filter. Either use pool filter sand,cichlid sand or collect your own from a local river.

[MisterCatfish]

@MyNativeFish I have play sand over kitty litter. And I hate the play sand. I find it in my filter and it settle all over the plants and driftwood. My favorite sand is sand I collect from the river. It has shells and pebbles in it .It looks good and stays in place.

[TheSnowDubz]

those longear look really good, their color and what have you, freakin awesome 

[MisterCatfish]

@TheSnowDubz Thanks, they are one of my favorite sunfish.

[TeamRushPB]

Can you do a update haha

[MisterCatfish]

@TeamRushPB I'll see what I can do. My laptop and camera both went to crap on me in the last couple of weeks.

[lbtheman12345]

Where do u get the drift would in your tanks?

[lbtheman12345]

@lbtheman12345 wood*



[MisterCatfish]

@lbtheman12345 I collected it from a local river.

[gusfish1]

Sunfish are aggressive. I've had several of them and they seem to be territorial. Similar to cichlids.

[MisterCatfish]

@gusfish1 Yes, some are more than others. I have very little problems with aggression in my tank though.

[gusfish1]

Green sunfish are awesome!

Have you ever had any territorial disputes in the 150 gallon?

[MisterCatfish]

@gusfish1 The only time I had a problem was when had the rock bass in their. Also for the first week after adding the green sunfish I had some problems. Now everybody is has happy and getting along just fine.

[TOKingfilms]

Dude if you wanna get rid of that crayfish put a Largemouth bass in there it's their favorite food

[MisterCatfish]

@TOKingfilms Crayfish is gone, the grass pickerel got it.

[snowmobileing23]

Can u do a update video on this tank please

[TeamRushPB]

Hey you have the best set up I have seen. I have a question how much does it cost to run all your tanks ?

[MisterCatfish]

@TeamRushPB Thank you! It cost me about $40 a month for electric. I have well water so I don't have to pay for water.

[TeamRushPB]

Hey You

[SocalDNM]

Are those real plants in the last tank? If so, what are the names? What kind of filtration do you use on the least killifish and pygmy sunfish tank?

[MisterCatfish]

@SocalDNM Yes they are real. Their is dwarf sag,jungle val,myriopyllum heterophylum,eurasian watermifoil,hornwort, a native hair grass,myriophyllum pinnatum.I use sponge filters in the least killie and pygmy sunfish tank.

[CritterLizard]

That is the most awesome tank. Where did you get the evergladis from?

[MisterCatfish]

@CritterLizard I ordered them online from Sachs Aquaculture store.

[CritterLizard]

@MisterCatfish Wow. I just looked that up, and that is the most awesome thing ever. Second, that is, to seeing all the awesome fishies in your awesome fish tanks. :)

[MisterCatfish]

@CritterLizard Thanks!

[snowmobileing23]

Nice tank please do more videos soon

[MisterCatfish]

@snowmobileing23 Thank you!

[Cadihar]

You've got an awesome set of tanks! The best part is that they're North American natives. I work in water quality and conservation and I've never seen a grass pickerel do anything other than hover at the top of the tank. Your male's got a lot of spunk. I'm getting ready to start a little 10 gallon of my own, thanks for the inspiration!

[MisterCatfish]

@Cadihar Thank you and your welcome!

[SpoonierMilk]

@MisterCatfish hey I was wondering if u could tell me how u got all your fish. Did u catch them or buy them? If u bought them can u tell me the website of the place? I really want to set up my own tank. Thanks!

[SpoonierMilk]

@MrCatfish hey I was wondering if u could tell me how u got all your fish. Did u catch them or buy them? If u bought them can you tell me where? I really want to start my own tank up. Thanks a lot!

[pinkpearl8130]

Sorry to hear that about your 150. Funny story about the crayfish though. Hope you can get it to the way you want. What was the fish in the bottom 10?

[MisterCatfish]

@pinkpearl8130 The fish in the bottom 10 are Elassoma Evergladei(Everglades Pygmy Sunfish)
