@mechiefslapahobitch haha alright kid, enough with the sub-par gay jokes. you're not that funny. please go be a raging douchelord around someone else. I've got more important shit to occupy my time.
Nice tank! I miss having my big setup like yours...moved into a apartment for college and i didnt have room for it...now i only have a 75. Either way great tank and could you post a vid of feeding goldfish or dont you do live fish feeding?
hey, if you dont mind, could u let me know the dementions of the tank please. I'm in the market to buy a tank for bass but i dont know how big of a tank i should buy. price isnt an issue, thanks!
@mechiefslapahobitch Hey retard boy, fish tanks look nice and are fun, I have one, Who cares? Maybe I still like to play video games or fly radio control planes? Who really cares? its something I enjoy, I'm sure you must have some, cool, adult hobbies, especially if you are on youtube putting people down, that must make you really cool, You must get all the ladies.
@TheTraxxasfreak So in other words youre another 50 yr old bald guy who never grew up. Good job. Youre kickin ass in life. Ill bet you get all the young gay guys in the gay bar.
@mechiefslapahobitch Heres my question......If this is so "gay" according to you then why in the hell are you watching it?? Youre no doubt one of those guys who watches gay porn too just so you can make fun of them right......the fact that your pants are around your ankles while youre watching it is prob irrelavant! I think the tank is sweet and I guess i misseed the part where theres an age cutoff for having a $2500+ setup
@10thgen First off, check your spelling. I dont like bad spelling. Secondly it sounds like youre a homophobe. Are you with the Westboro Baptist Church or something? Are you a Phelps?
@mechiefslapahobitch wow, guess you sure told me! You don't like bad spelling and everyone else doesnt like immature idiots feeling they have a right to put people and thier interests down. Like I said which you haven't answered....if its so "gay" why are you obviously watching it. As for your homophobic comment....you've just confirmed your ignorance. I wasjust trying to put things in terms that soneone who talks about x"young gay guys in gay bars" would relate to.Youre not worth spellchecking
@mechiefslapahobitch hahahahaha rich man behind the computer screen, but really a pizza delivery man by day. get the fuck out of here man. lol 7 million my cocksack
@mechiefslapahobitch lol wow you sure are one funny motherfucker. cocksack = ballsack = scrotum = part of the male reproductive system, which you should know if you had one of your own. go fuck yourself dipshit.
@mechiefslapahobitch haha big man behind a computer screen. dime a dozen my friend. people like you talk shit behind a computer screen because if you did it man to man you'd get hurt. what a fucking pussy lol talking shit over youtube. go fistfuck yourself.
@mechiefslapahobitch of course you will faggot. news flash: that $65k Ranger in my profile picture? yea, the rod lockers aren't filled with zebcos. nice try though big man. probably also didn't notice on my profile my association with IMAC either. might want to try talking shit to someone who couldn't kill you and throatfuck your corpse...
@mechiefslapahobitch that "pic of a crappy looking boat on [my] profile" happens to be MY 21ft Ranger Z, one of the nicest bass boats made anywhere in the world, and happens to be the boat I use in FLW and BASS events. I'm not a coward at all lol you're the one talking shit over the computer screen. If we somehow met, I would gladly beat your ass dead and then skullfuck your corpse.
@mechiefslapahobitch People like you are a fucking joke. You've probably never thrown a punch in your life. I grew up boxing and started thai boxing almost 7 years ago. But, unlike you, I don't go around trying tell everyone how much of a hardass I am. I've found that the people who talk themselves up the most are nearly always the biggest bitches. So, please take a big step back and fuck your own face. And if you ever get the chance, try to cross my path and see if you make it to the other side
@swburton316 Hey princess....youd be picking up your teeth and taking them to the dentist to see if ha cant stick em back in your pointy head after I was dont with you, ya faggot. Fuck you and your faggoty martial arts. Only a fucking pansy ass loser who has no natural fighting ability(you)takes martial arts classes. lol fag. lol
@mechiefslapahobitch yea, only a pussy thai boxes. what a great argument that is. quit fucking talking douchebag. i will chop down your family tree, turn it into paper, and wipe my fucking ass with it. your idea of being a hardass is getting too drunk at your friends wedding. cool. i did notice, however, that the douchebag in the video (you) is a giant fucking pussy. please come find me troll, i'd be glad to stomp your skull into the fucking concrete
@swburton316 So is this your cock sucking day, fag? I cant remember if you do bj's on wednesday of thursday.I'd like to get another one of those nice bj's you give. This time I want you to do what you did the other time....Ill fuck you in the ass THEN you lick your shit off my dick and finish me off. Your sister does it like that too. Call me.
@mechiefslapahobitch ha. yea right. even if i was gay, i wouldn't have time for a boyfriend. too busy facefucking your mom. tell your sister she has a tight asshole too....well, HAD anyway...
@swburton316 I sense a lot of frustration and hostility from you, cocksmoker. Maybe because you still havent caught your first 3lb bass yet. Dont give up, Dbag...tomorrows another day! but you faggoty nerds just dont know how to fish. Ever think about just sticking to your fav pastime...hangin out at the gay bar? Bass fishing is for men...not fags. And especially not nerdy fags.
@mechiefslapahobitch haha alright my man. nice try. I actually compete on the national level for my college team. you might have seen me on (formerly versus) what is now NBC sports network a few times. but anyway, you enjoy yourself Mr. worth-7-million-dollars-badass-slash-as-good-as-KVD douchebag.word of advice: don't beat your meat too hard in your basement bedroom at your parents house. the little thing could fall off, and i'm sure you wouldn't want that!
@swburton316 Well we can all see youre a dorky d-bag wannabe. You keep on tryin' there kid...maybe you'll actually catch a 3 lber someday. We'll be rootin' for ya, kid. Hey heres a tip for ya, fudgepacker...take the bobber off.
@mechiefslapahobitch The 6.64lb'er in my new profile pic begs to differ. That fish was caught in a tournament on KY lake last march. But thanks for rooting for me! You can follow me in the standings on FLW, BASS, and Boat U.S. trails' websites! Appreciate all the support! Let me know if you ever want to get out in the boat and learn a thing or two son.
@mechiefslapahobitch and as far as the bobber goes, 2 guys in the top ten at last years FLW on Table Rock in Missouri (the one that Brent Ehrler won) caught at least some of their tournament fish using a bobber. Ever heard of a float n' fly? Happens to be one of the best ways to catch big bass in cold, clear water. Try telling one of those "fudgepackers" to "take the bobber off"
@mechiefslapahobitch you and all your faggot friends in that wedding video look like the dudes from superbad 10 years later lol get back under your bridge you fat fucking troll. and learn how to handle your booze too bitch.
@mechiefslapahobitch how many kids have a fish tank this big? some people are very interested in fish and study them for a living and watch them. i dont think he looks like a idiot. its very fun to keep fish
@MrFishermen98 Theres nothing wrong with keeping bass in a tank like that....but not when theyre 2lbs. Once the fish gets 10" he needs to be let go. Bass migrate100's of yards in nature...theyre not supposed to be kept in a fish tank. Its like putting a lion or an elephant in a pen....which is sick. Sure it fun! ...if you dont give a fuck about the fish or animal.
@MrFishermen98 hundreds of yards isnt that far but your right. once the fish is kept though it shouldnt be relieased cause then it looses its urge to hunt and looks to be handfed. bass dont neccesarily need to go anywhere though espicially in small ponds. i pulled a 8 lber out of a 70 yard or so pond. im studying fish for a livi ng though so anyones facts help. :)
they fall under different class and order, and species, but they still are in the same boator in aquarium. still a great looking fish though i have an amozon redtail catfish and i will soon have bass, gar, and the cichla temensis, or pecock bass
Please tell me you only did partial water changes and gravel vacs... tell me you're not one of these guys who takes everything out of the tank, cleans it and puts everything back...
Why do people go to all the trouble and time to set up a beautiful tank like that, and yet to ZERO research on it's maintenance.
Your filtration media acts as a holding space for what's referred to as "beneficial bacteria."
This bacteria turns the ammonia from the fish's urine into nitrites, which then become nitrates... which are a toxin that's removed via partial water changes every week or so.
By "partial," I mean 10-40% of the water exchanged with fresh.
@RamAirIndustries When ALL the water is removed, the beneficial bacteria is therefore compromised, causing your tank to go into a "cycling" process all over again (usually takes a month or so).
In the meantime, your fish, unbeknownst to you, are going through tremendous stress due to the now elevated ammonia content.
In short: Never, EVER take all the water out of your tank.
Once it's cycled, it's a natural balance that needs not be interrupted.
