* I HOPE YOU SEE THIS * in regards to tops for those jars, in the uk we have a store called wilkinsons they sell these large white tubs of fish food in there(no doubt there will be a similar product in the us) the lids fit air tight and perfect on the vase, i use them for sealed plant ecospheres. i hope this helps :)

This is genius, and much better for the fish than those store bought fry traps that only hold a cup of water, keeping those precious baby fish within an inch or two of the adults mouth. Plus you can put more than one female in the trap at a time and they have room to swim not just barely enough room to turn around. The black coloration also helps to keep them calm throughout their birthing process. Why didn't I think of this? Oh wait I'm the guy in the video ;) Can't wait to see what's next.....

@LastFractionZero 4 жыл бұрын

Love your work, Dean! About those plastic lids. Depending on the type of plastic it is putting it under a hair dryer on its high setting for a while might warm it up enough to let you warp the center of the lid into the shape you want. :)

@calebholt8916 4 жыл бұрын

Hey Dean, You might be able to silicone the excess foam from the breeder basket on the lip of the blue lid and make a seal around the jar.

How do I stop my female guppies from jumping out over the basket into the tank tho? Lol I’ve tried almost everything at this point and they’re still jumping like no tomorrow. A few have ended up on the ground. Thanks in advance for your help

@deansfishroom Жыл бұрын

@@bigcheapskate simply lay a thin piece of plexiglass on top of the floating basket. You can get it from Home Depot. Or a piece of that cross-stitch plastic mesh from JoAnns or Michael’s. Just be sure to put it back on after feeding.

I think freaking out family is half the fun. A few years back I was dabbling in mycology and used the kitchen table to build my breathable grow jars. I think it was the highlight of my grandparents’ month because they had so much fun telling all of their friends about their granddaughter, the mad scientist. Grandpa would sit down next to me and ask me to explain everything to him. He would sit there with the silly grin on his face the whole time and I just knew he only understood half of what I was talking about, but he just enjoyed listening to how passionate I was about my projects. Then, invariably, he would ask me when my guppies will get big enough to eat. LOL I miss him so much.

Not even going to lie, Dean is what i call "fish room daddy" that man is so straight to the point everytime he says something. Anytime someone tries to explain what he just said and does it wrong Dean chimes in with "yeah but no" and continues to give more examples. I honestly love Dean and i see why you do too, never met either of you but i respect you both. But really tho, more Dean is seriously what I want to see. Some other guy made a video on Dean doing baby brine and showing how it was done and that is my go to video, i had to favorite it because it was so hard to find. Does that man have a book becuase i want to show some support for my fish daddy! But not in a weird way, super respectful way!

I made one of these about 2 months ago for my long fin danios to spawn in and it works great. Threw in a spawning mop and they were happy. I have used it for my larger guppies but they do have to be rather large to not fit through the holes on the sides. I used foam pipe insulation and/or pool noodle with a slit cut in it to get it to float.
