SOUTH AMERICAN TANK: Blue Acara Fry Swimming!! (Fish Room Update)

They're floating everywhere. I think I'm going to clean this all up tomorrow, just go over it with a pipe to make it look a little better again. We have tons of floating plants. These guys, what I put in there has quadrupled in the space of a week, but that's what I wanted it to do so we can export the nitrates. Basically, they have used nitrates to grow and then we can remove them. So now it's the second day since the babies started

swimming

freely. Did they survive the night? They're still alive, what's going on, let's see, look at this, the babies are

swimming

really well now, look, they're all in this corner and they're just doing what they like, mom is just a little bit back, there and there, right? where are the other boys?

You guys are there waiting for another broadcast, I just got here, can you give me a minute? By the way, it's 6 a.m. guys, so yeah, the lights have been on for an hour, they're all colored, in fact the

tank

seems to be kind of starting to balance out because I'm noticing that there's less algae in this substrate than yesterday, not much. , but you know, I can tell. There we go, mom is here again protecting the babies from her, so yeah, two days later. Of the free-swimming babies, it seems that all of them are still there.

Look at that on the back too. You can see there are absolutely hundreds of them there. I think we're going to be very successful with this. I feel like if they are going to be eliminated, there would have been an attempt at least by now wouldn't there be such a big

tank

for these little free

fish

? They will get bigger, don't get me wrong, but you know, a tank that big right now is almost like we have a lot of

room

, I guess time will tell. It could be the case when they start doing their own thing and swim away from mom, that's when they could be eliminated later on, but then you know there are surely hundreds of them. some are going to survive, I hope they do anyway because I really like to see that now the strongest, the smartest and the fittest will survive in this tank and, you know, I will pass on the genetics and just another

fish

to my list of fish that I have raised.

So far, it's not that big of a list, but it's coming, it's coming. Hello, you are an impressive fish. Aren't you one of the most beautiful fish I've ever kept? Actually, don't get me wrong, I love my album. but there's something about this uh you know, orange that goes along the top contrasting beautifully with the

blue

, I love them so if you remember recently I added another ram to the ram tank, the dirty tank, so I had the ram golden, I added the German

blue

female. So far everything has been going very well there and I also see the ram much more often in the previous configuration.

I never saw her, she was always hidden in this one, she comes to the front all the time and what's the bet I can make? I can't find it now and there it is, oh, all good, well, not good, just when I came in, there was a little bit of a fight, all good, look how pink the belly is, that means it's in some kind of breeding mode and that explains the assault, to be honest, it wasn't a real assault, look, it's just a little bite or whatever and then you know they went back to doing their thing again, so since I did a hackback Also, on this, all the plants are growing back, it's so nice it's rotala hr.

It's getting to the point where it's high enough that the light is starting to make it turn red, so just below it looks like it has more greens, but it's about to really turn. very red along with the rotala macrandra too, that's seen there, so you have green brownies and then here, boom, all the way up, now it's going to turn bright red because it's closer to the light, a lot of people ask. Yo, how can I make my plants turn red without CO2? Well, I found out that CO2 isn't really a contributing factor to plants turning red, it's more about the intensity of the light and has something to do with a lack of iron or something. a lack of something in the system that I, oh look, there's a woman again, come on, then behave, that was short-lived, wouldn't that be nice?

Maybe they don't get along, but they're not fighting anyway, she's not ready to lay eggs yet because her belly isn't her, that's not her, it's him, but the female isn't ready to lay eggs yet because her belly isn't swollen at all so hopefully that will happen soon and then you can always know when. Later it does because the belly gets a little concave underneath after that, I'm really looking forward to that too, there let's look, look, underneath, where the pink color is, just calm down guys, pack it in, you're You, your little fireball, yeah, I don't.

I think it'll be a long time, something will happen, we'll be a couple, there's plenty of

room

in this tank though for those two to do it, but did he just rip Monty off a little? How dare you? This guy is a little monster like me. he said there is a lot of space in this tank, although for them to coexist there are tons of hiding spaces around the back, the whole section around the back is like a maze of tunnels and everything, that's why it's absolutely fine in this tank in size, uh, two. foot, this is 60 centimeters to have both rams there, even if they didn't get along, but I think it will be absolutely fine, it's completely normal to see a kind of pecking order and a bit of aggression between the two. of them here we go look at the confrontation wow I don't think he has seen her I don't think he has either, he has seen her okay, she walks away on her own yes, it's not, it's not very bad, doesn't he continue chasing? he's just saying this is my area we're all fine we're all fine oh literally I just had to grab the camera and come down here look look at them all there's so many right now they've all come to this section here .

Mom collects them in her mouth and then spits them back into this pile if they go too far, look, look, they're heading that way and she says, come back, she's actually looking at me right now, but she's going that way. she picks them up she's also looking at the top because there's danger lurking there come on she's going out so they know to stay close to her she's so smart isn't it watching how these fish work but they're starting to do their thing a little bit more and she's like an angry mother, yeah, one of those things where the more you look, the more you can see, look at that pile, there's so many here, I mean, it makes sense in the world the more babies you have.

The more you increase the chances of survival, don't you? So I can understand why there would be so many. There has to be at least several hundred, but you can see that in the background she's collecting some inside of her. mouth and she'll come over and spit them out in this pile, she'll spit them out there, there you go, oh she just did it, so yeah, look, so she's collecting and the thing that brings them together is so clever I love to watch it, I mean, this is the most. number of babies I've seen in one go, so I'm very happy with that, look at them all, wow, there we go, I said, well, I'm sorry if I keep repeating myself, but this is all new to me and I'm watching it for first time with this fish, I mean, I saw similar behavior with the crobensis, but still I don't know, this one seems to be on him.
