For the cheap hollow cooler lids, you can shoot some spray foam into them and get whatever insulation the foam provides as well as some extra strength (we've accidentally cracked a few of the hollow ones).

Ok, let me help out here. I often transport small fish from Florida to Kentucky (12+ hours) for my aquariums 1) Main thing, despite what 90%+ people think, bubble boxes or air pumps do not put oxygen in the water, the bubbles are way too big. Water absorbs oxygen from the air at the surface. This is why aquarium fish shipped to pet stores are in plastic bags filled with 100% oxygen. What the bubblers do is circulate the water so it picks up oxygen. What you want is a maximum circulation. You will get better results with a smaller air stone with the pumps yo are using. They simply do not have the power fr the big air stones to work properly 2) If you have 12 volt, just use a 12 volt bilge pump (small one) just like the boat's live well 3) If you have an inverter so you have 110 volt, I mount an underwater filter to the side using silicon. This not circulates the water but filters toxic waste from the fish as well. 4) If you plan on having a lot of fish or fish for extended periods, pick up a nitrate remover, also called ammonia block (many different names) from the pet section. This removes the deadly ammonia produced by the fish. I also add another substance that helps the fish keep their slime layer. 5) Adding a small frozen blue ice or a frozen water bottle helps as well, cool water has more oxygen. 6) The gorilla tape is okay, do not use the gorilla glue. Personally, I use silicon (pet area and paint, hardware, craft have tubes), it is safe and can be peeled off if needed.

I’ve built what amounts to an under gravel filter for an aquarium before. I was thinking that a good old aquarium box filter, or an equivalent contraption might play well. But I’m really thinking in terms of growing my own minnows for bait and a big aquarium style filter. The box filter for the live well could be pre inoculated in the main tank to grow the appropriate bacteria to convert the ammonia. Then just add the box filter to the live well for fishing. The carbon and other filter material would be contained and would help. And the advice to keep the water cold is really good! Cold water dissolves and holds gases much better!

@sciguyjeff 3 жыл бұрын

@@dr.froghopper6711 adding the bacteria to a live well would do next to nothing. The bacteria work slowly and in a large amount of water to a small ratio of fish. Think about an established 50 gallon aquarium and you suddenly add 100 minnows. That would overload you system within a few hours. Under gravel filters are highly overrated. If you want to grow minnows just for size you will need a large tank, a large aerator and change water frequently. Now a friend of mine breeds nd grows creek chubs. He actually uses an 8 ft diameter above ground pool and simply uses the sand filter that came with it and live plants

@sciguyjeff 3 жыл бұрын

@@dr.froghopper6711 Also, about the ice. I use the blue ice or frozen water bottle since they are reusable. Regular ice cubes work as well but you have to watch the chlorine if it is home made. Ice cubes do add small amounts of oxygen. HOWEVER the cooling should be used with extreme caution if the minnows are used for fishing, If the live well water is much cooler than the water you are fishing in, the minnow will die of thermal shock within seconds.

instead of cutting slits in your cooler, you can screw metal picture frame hangers into it with small screws. they make perfect holders for the clips on the back of the aerator.

@adammckenzie8769 3 ай бұрын

Don’t pump the water in, use solution that helps keep oxygen in ya water And use ice at start of the day, The water I would pump in would be from surface level which will get hot really quick which sucks more oxygen out, Just put ice in ya box then fill with water Put solution in and turn oxygen on, Then keep shut as much as u can to keep cold, maybe bring an extra frozen milk container of water to chuck in half way through the day to cook it again.

Another great video! I look for folks throwing out coolers. Yeah, they just throw them out..perfectly good ones. The problem you addressed about the hollow tops, on the older style, is an easy fix..drill a hole the same size of the tube diameter on a can of that expandable foam stuff..spray away until it's filled. Also, Clam makes a rechargeable lithium bubbler with two outlets. I use it for both ice fishing and warm weather fishing to keep bait alive. Works great. Thanks for the video!!!

It works great, but does use more power. But it'll run off a 12 volt, sealed lead acid battery or 12v cigarette port (in my boat / truck)
