In this episode we head off to an abandoned fish farm or should I say closed. They were selling off some of their tanks, filters and supplies. I was thinking of adding another IBC tank and hoping for some small filters. They have industrial sized tanks, heaters , vats and filters.
It was quite the journey driving over thin cosways hoping not to sink as this is all peat. Formally peat bogs now dug out into massive lakes.
We returned pretty much empty handed. I did buy a 50 lb bag of salt for 10 dollars.
I talk about what my plans are to breed and house all my shubunkin goldfish this coming year with the hopes of expanding my operation and not take away from my barbs

Thanks so much Sandy. You're always so kind. I really love it Yeah there was a lot of things I'd be interested in but the price was a bit much and a lot of was way too big like a 12 ft round pond I guess and they were about 1,800 each and they are fiberglass so obviously you couldn't have water in them and during the winter

Yeah, that road didn't look too safe. 😂 Glad you were able to pick up some useful equipment. Sad to see the place close down. It looked like a fun place to hangout in the summer. Can't wait to see how you set up your new tanks. Great update Chris. So happy you were able to score a deal. ❤

Set up some pallet racks, then you can stack your IBC's vertically. The sky's the limit, literally!

That facility looked huge. That's a real shame they closed. At least there was good equipment to salvage! My advice is to follow your gut feeling. Great video Chris that facility was really cool. I'm glad you were able to preserve it for us to see.

It is a real shame and sadness to see these businesses closed and abandoned. Well, in any case it was worth it to see this structure and recover some salt. Have a nice day Chris

If you could get one of those round pools it would be sweet but they might be a little too big, I know what you mean about wanting to get more space for your shubunkins, I'd like to get more to but I'm very limited in space being that I live in a small town and the lot that my house sits on is only 60 x 90 feet long.

@stubbsaquatics6080 3 ай бұрын

Hi Greg, I would love a couple of those 12 ft round ones but there are 1,800 each plus the plumbing plus the shipping here and I couldn't even get it in my yard. Anyways I had way too big. I didn't have to have them lifted up and over my house and I think my wife would kill me and my yard is smaller than yours. Mine's only 50 ft wide might be about the same depth too. It's just a small lot inside town. The house I grew up on had a almost 300 ft deep. It was three times the size of the property I'm on now

@shubunkin.goldfishtank 3 ай бұрын

Those pools are expensive for sure, our yards are kind of small but I'll take it over a big yard with no pond in it every time, the square ones you got are good but I wish they made them a little longer/wider

Rather than buying those piddly little IBC tanks you should have purchased the whole farm. Just imagine how many shubunkins you could breed and grow out there. 🤣🤣🤣
