  • It looks like you take good care of them nice tank and all of that but they are Extreamly over weight and thats prettyy bad and really unhealthy....i feel sorry for those newts...you should REALLY stop feeding them so much.. but anyways nice tank and everything.

  • @sherbear446 First you should learn how does a gravid newt female looks like, expert, then tell people their animals are unhealthy and overweight. Outside of breeding season the females don't look like barrels.

  • @sherbear446 Yahilles is right. You should try to keep a few dozen newt species, breed them over the years to get to know how they are supposed to look like. The newts are perfectly healthy. I feel sorry for your starving newts....

  • i hate live feeding

  • nice! A+ for your Tank! :-)

  • @Yahilles this video was amazing!!! your tank is AWESOME id really love to know more as to how you set it up!

  • Very nice Life in your tank

  • those salamanders need land?please reply :D

  • @PowerOfKonoha yes they need a small part of land,like 70% water and 30% land or more land i think

  • Nice aquarium! :)

  • whats that thing at 2:55 and whats the little sprouts on the bottom at 0:13? thanks, and nice tank!

  • @bmogan23 Edited the description.

  • Thanks for very kind words everybody!

  • Today on NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC life in the Aquarium. This looks like a documentary GREAT WORK awsome life in there!!

  • This video always makes me smile :)

  • Are supported the red cherrys and the Cynops orientalis?

  • i seriously have better pets though those are awesome ill post more soo at my channel pokemonmaster9992

  • nice

  • were the fuck do u find al;l these animals!!!!! aspecially the planktons!

  • @thecrazyappleoflife I find Daphnias and fairy shrimp in swamps (in America they're called vernal pools), newts and Red Cherry shrimps are bought at petshop or from breeders.

  • @Yahilles oh thts cool u go catch them in ponds. i always look fur little minnow fish in the streams but since i live in canada there a rarley any

  • tht is a ghost shrim i know because i have two and they look similar

  • @thecrazyappleoflife No, ghost shrimp are bigger and they're not red. Either you have Red Cherries like me or you're blind to see huge difference between the two kinds of shrimps ;)

  • well i cant tell how big it is.

  • what are all those tiny worm lie things on the bottom? are they the baby shrimp

  • @cmooth98 Baby ghost shrimp maybe 89% sure

  • @cmooth98 nope its food.

  • so lovely and cuute >.<

  • this is beautiful

  • looking thru comments for plant names.. I've had java ferns before.. at one time they were happy and doing well but my planted tank has died pretty much. Right now I have java moss which is growing well.. can you name off a couple of plants that are easy to keep? Good base plants?? Anything? This tank is breath taking... i love it.. I never have words for what i want to achieve.. this is it......

  • @xbleedingfetusx Limnophila sessiflora, Ludwigia repens, Najas guadelupensis, Bacopa caroliniana, Egeria densa, Fissidens fontanus are easiest for me.

  • @Yahilles Thanks so much! I'm very excited to go to the petstore and check out the plants :D

  • I'm in love with this tank.

  • 2:55 what is it ??? its cool .

  • that a bamboo shrimp? its cool

  • Awesome! XD

  • where can you find one of these or did you buy it at a pet store

  • @VanessaZG Species of the animals are in the end credits ;) The plant is Glossostigma elatinoides.

  • Wow, i love the way the tank with all the plants look. What kind of plants would you recommend for a small group of Cynops orientalis? What's your setup? From your past comments, i seem to have the impression that keeping these animals in a tank with so much plants is quite easy? It looks way better than those empty tanks and i bet your newts enjoy this kind of decoration too. Could you provide me with a good link with tips for a similiar tank? :) Sry for all the questions, just jealous ;)

  • @Fepl Argh, i just read your description, which answers a lot of my questions. Sorry about that :) Could you tell me what kind of plants you use in your tank though?

  • @Fepl For sure Limnophila sessiflora, Rotala rotundifolia, Anubias barteri, Vallisneria spiralis, Sagittaria subulata, Ludwigia repens, Bacopa amplexicaulis, Glossostigma elatinoides, Fissidens fontanus, Microsorium pteropus and many others.

  • @Yahilles Thank you very much! Very inspirational video, i'm going to do some more research now ;) Maybe one day....

  • @VanessaZG There are many different types of earthworms, it's entire family (Lumbricidae) that contains over 670 species.

  • @VanessaZG An earthworm, you have never seen one? :D

  • if i were you id get a power filter atleast because the amonia wont be transferd into nitrogen unless it passes threw some sort of filtration system that has a purification . like filter pads .

  • @greenfiend42000 Cool story bro. Don't you know that bacteria that transfer ammonia into nitrogen live also in the substrate? The oxygen they require is supplied by plant roots. 

  • @Yahilles why are you being rude ? i wasent being negative on ur video just giving my opion . guess i wont sub to you . and besides one of ur tanks has sand substrate and you MUST have a filter for it because all the waste and debris dosent fall threw the gravel substrate. you have no biological filtration in the tank . but i only own 2 13 inch oscars in a 125 so i know a little bit about fish because there both been alive for 6 years and counting

  • @greenfiend42000 You should read "Ecology of the planted aquarium". In oscar tank you need a filter because you can't keep a big plant mass in the tank (the oscars would destroy it). But if you would have them, the plants would take the role of biological filtration. And i have a planted tank without filter for three years already, the life is thriving in there (newts, shrimps, snails, daphnia, tubifex etc.), so you won't tell me that the tank won't work without any artifical filtration.

  • Comment removed

  • @Yahilles but ur aquarium is tiny its only a 30 gallon at most so you have a small tank to look after. my 125 gallon with live plants did nothing for my filtration my oscar just ate the leafs. so i use a emperor bio wheel canister filter because of my mass of water. im just saying planted tanks are great for anything under 46 gallons. anything over it you will have to do alot of water changes with any fish .

  • @greenfiend42000 If i had a 125 gallon one (without chichlids, but newts and shrimps as i like) i would maintain it the same way as i maintain my 15gal tanks. It's not about the size, it's about the plants! You can't have them because your fish destroy them, i have no destructive fish so the plants grow well and they make the water clean. I do water change once per few months and everything goes awesome as i previously said.

    I'd like you to stop convincing me that my method doesn't work.

  • @greenfiend42000 And the bigger tank the more stable it is, you need filtration because you can't have plants due to your fish behaviour. In big water mass i could have big plant mass which would replace the filter even more effectively than in a small tank.

  • and i dont know if you know but doing a 25 % water change each week on 125 gallon is a pain in the ass yet alone doing it more eahc week

  • very good! i ll take some ideas for my tank! thnx!

  • @Chao5INcarnate I know the title might be confusing, but the shots in the movie are from several different tanks. There is separate aquarium for orientalis, separate aquarium for ensicauda, and those bare-bottom shots are from larvae-raising tanks. As mentioned, i don't mix newt species (except for last parts - there are young ensicauda with orientalis, i moved them out when they grown up) so there is no option that entire movie was filmed in one tank ;)

  • thats great and the song is epic

  • <3

  • This Is so beautiful

  • Size of tank in litres?

  • @soundbounce123 I now added answers to most popular questions in the description.

  • how come Amanos shrimp does not get eaten?

    Is the tank CO2 injected?

    Is that salamander gentle to plants? Does it dig?

  • @schtals There are no Amano shrimps in her, just cherries and they're too fast to get eaten, there is no CO2 in the tank and sals don't harm the plants, only in case they lay eggs in leaves, other newts want to eat those eggs and then they bite the leaves to do so, usually ripping the leaves aparat, which doesn't seriously harm the plants anyway.

  • @Yahilles Thnx 4 replay. You have a real nice tank - both flora and fauna. I recognize you spend extra time to feed them live food. Some more questions: what's your though on keeping these with reedfish? They would look quite nice together. Do sals produce more waste? how big is the tank and what kind of filter do you run?

  • Lovely♥

  • nice setup

    

  • @gusfish1 Its not just nice it is beautiful

  • This is just beautiful.

  • wha size is that tank?

  • @stanleycen 60x30x30 cm / 24x12x12 in

  • @Yahilles thanks and also what are the names of the plants you have in there, theyre beautiful

  • @stanleycen sorry one more question, what was that animal teh enwt was trying to eat at 3 minutes in

  • @stanleycen Too many to list them.

  • Hello, I was just wondering...Is it possible to breed shrimp in a tank with the presence of newts? If so, how?

  • @BreedingDeath666 Of course it's possible. You just need to put the shrimps in the tank and they will breed after some time. Aquatic mosses are very appreciated by them!

  • @Yahilles Thanks man.

    

  • nice natural set up.watch the big newts don't eat the smaller ones (speaking from experience) :(

  • Can you PLEASE tell me what the creature at 2:50 is!

  • @FLIPminoman Somebody already asked about it, it's a fairy shrimp.

  • @Yahilles KK, THX MAN!!!

  • what a fat newt

  • any possible way you would sell me a fire belly or a sword tail newt???

  • @eyelashcrestedpacman I don't have neither swordtails nor firebellies for sale.

  • this is a very nice setup and so much life in it amazing

  • i have a newt my newts name is princess it has a coconut house and another one called dragon\

  • yeah i had a daphnias there really cool pets but i was really little and i cought one and didnt know better and i thought he would of done ok in the bird bath :(

  • I can not believe someone actually dislikes this.. its so peaceful :)

  • how u clean it?:D

  • @KevinIsM8ig When you have enough healthy, growing plants, you don't need any cleaning.

  • That fire eel is badass. thumbs up if you agree.

  • Great set up! Do your newt ever eat the shrimp?

  • @watertiger21 No, they're too slow to catch them.

  • that was so cool i love the fire belly newts there so cute i love the set up as well great job!... =]

  • Where do you get your Daphnia and other live foods?

  • @TheFrogGuyThigpen I collect daphnias in ponds and swamps, most others i buy in petshops.

  • Wow, your aquarium is like the world in the water of Japanese rice fields!

  • Very Nice Tank You Have (:

  • dude i want one so bad would you sell me some larve?? ill pay cash

  • This vid is AWSOME!!!!

  • @HassHerps Yes

  • @HassHerps Yes, they breed every year, the season lasts for like 6 months. 

  • @HassHerps It's not obesity, they're gravid. Outside of breeding season they're much more slender. When they have eggs inside bodies, you need to feed them really well because after they lay a batch of eggs, they quickly get skinny- reproduction is exhausting for them.

  • how do you clean the aquarium? do you need a machine or the shrimps clean it?

  • No i didn't catch them, and in ponds they usually appear themselves (if you live in Europe or eastern US, and they won't be firebellies). 10 gallon would be okay for a pair of orientalis

  • how many fire belly newt can you put in a 10 gallon tank

  • 3:14 That Shrimp Was Like Oh Shit!!!!

  • your newt is so fat! in a good way tho

  • what are those white things @ 1:43? i had a few in my aquarium...i thought they were parasites??

  • @chillywilly0 Those are grindal worms, i culture them for food and put in water when i want to feed them to larvae.

    Animals in your tank are probably either planarians or nematods, and neither of them are parasitic, you need no worry.

  • @Yahilles ok good to know.. thanks a mill!!

  • @Yahilles would the newts be good in small ponds

  • @Yahilles did you catch the newts

  • whats at 2:54 ?

  • @victorcelmare Fairy shrimp

  • what other species of newt is it apart from the firebelly?

  • @pjmclemon123 Cynops ensicauda ensicauda - swordtail newt.

  • those are the cutest newts i've ever seen

  • wow that song makes me "calm'

  • nice newts and tank ☺

  • How do you keep the soil from messing up the water?

  • @AnimalExpert1000 The soil is covered by a layer of aquarium gravel.

  • Yahilles..Can you tell me what you use for lightinge? it seem to keep you plants so green and healthy, and that is wy i want to know,.

    Regards.

  • @TomasSyrsa 2x16 W 4000K T4 fluorescent tubes

  • Comment removed

  • Yahilles..Can you tell me what kind a light you use in the first tank in the vid? it looks enought to keep the plants green and helthy, thats wy i want to know.

    Regards

  • u should get african dawrf frogs

  • @happy101ize I kept them in past, in separate tank. They should NOT be kept with newts.

  • What kind of filter do you use? Your tank is a piece of art btw:)

  • @gdhs112 No filters in my planted tanks

  • you have a very nice ecosytem! looks like thing got outta hand at 3:10 tho... what are those?

  • @jorkey0roblox Daphnias

  • @Yahilles hmmmm.... was that a problem?

  • what type of newts are they

  • @madja2224 Check out end credits.

  • what is the thing called at 0:56

  • @dayafterdeath777 It's a chinese firebelly newt larva. 

  • Now i always thought fire belly newts needed a place out of water? Aperently not beautiful tank.

  • @xXTHExSiMPLExLiFEXx That place out of water can be for example (like in my case) a really small island - mine is just not visible on the clip. Plus they use it very, very rarely - the water is cool and clean, they have plants to rest on, why then would they leave the water often?

    I keep&breed Hypselotriton (Cynops) orientalis for 5 years now, so i can say i am experienced with them.

  • @Yahilles Cool thanks in a week or so ill be putting my first video up on a fire belly newt. I had one in the past and looking forward to having another.Thanks again.

  • such a cool tank!

  • what size is the fire-belly tank?

  • @hardyboi2k10 60x30x30 cm / 24x12x12 in

  • Have you ever had problems with newts accidentally eating sand and then having digestive blockages or other problems? I'm thinking of getting some sand for my newt tank.

    Beautiful setup btw!

  • @badda71 No, never. I think that problem is more appearing in bigger caudates such as ribbed newts or axolotls, but i had firebellies on various substrates and never had problems with sand/gravel ingestion.

  • wow, just wow. Never seen so much work done with so much viriaties of fish!

  • flubbergusting... o.O

  • what kind of fish live in there? where can i find them?

  • @stinabishh There are no fish? Where do you see any?

  • amazing......BRAVO

  • brad pitts scene made me cry cause it was so amazing

  • how many newts do you have in all

  • do the newts eat the Ghost shrimp or are they just peaceful together?

  • @soccerstud03427 As far as i know, smaller species of newts are unable to catch the shrimps, although bigger newts or axolotls are known to eat them.

  • um i have a question do bloodworms turn red when there thawed or are they just red any how. i love your habbitat .

  • @rodentlover2000 Bloodworms are always red. When they rot their color fades.

  • Had two firebelly salamanders in my 62 ltr tank, one's feet and fingers started rotting off day by day! Guys were only 2 inches, didn't respond to treatment, had to terminate..Hoping the one left will survive :-(...Yours look so fat and healthy! What's your temperature? Mine's at 28* -currently treating tank for Ich... super cool tank mates but those fleas freak me out!

  • @krazypath 28 is way too high. I guess you keep your newts with fish as you use such high temps? It's a wrong action, newts should be kept without any fish and in temperature range between 10-23'C. Too high temperature and tankmates are probably reason why your newt died.

  • that waz sick

  • 0:14 what kind of plants are that?

  • @Mexxi0 Round leaves: Glossostigma elatinoides, straight leaves: Lilaeopsis brasiliensis.

  • @Yahilles Thanks =)

  • around 3:25 there are these floating things, what are they? Btw, They go well with the music :3

  • @toocutepuppy30 They're daphnias (water fleas).

  • very nice that frickin awsome

  • I see u have a firebelly net living in harmony with the shrimps, so do I! Also I noticed another kind of newt, what is that other newt called?

  • @MrJimHivon In end credits you see it's Cynops ensicauda ensicauda - swordtail newt. They DON'T live in one tank with firebellies.

  • OMG. its just plain sexy

  • This is the coolest aquarium community I think I have ever seen. Thanks for sharing.

  • Keeping animals is only part of the appeal: maintaining a piece of nature in your home is the magical part.

  • I'm thinking about "adopting" a newt, any tips for me? water type, how to clean the aquarium, what kind of aquarium, etc.

  • this is a fantastic vid. very well done sir.

  • :o that is awsome

  • Whoa! Great video! Shows that you really know what you're doing. :)

  • Wow dude, I love your video! Well chosen music, cool animals and a very nice tank!

    Greetings from Holland!
