The two biggest things I took away from this channel is one, dealing with water changes and two feeding. Advice from father fish on just these two topics has totally changed my fish keeping experience. I have a heavily planted 90 gallon community tank and it is absolutely thriving I feed about three times a week and I have just stopped doing regular weekly water changes for the sake of changing water. I figured I'm going to stop doing regular water changes and start testing the water and will only change water if I have to. well it's been over a month now and the water quality is not changing, it's remaining the same as when I started. The tank is just over a year old now and I have to do very little to maintain it, it's as if the tank is almost taking care of itself. When it comes to maintaining my tank the best thing I ever did was listen to advice from father fish and I think it would serve other fish keepers out there well to do the same. Happy fish keeping everyone, Cheers! P.S. If your stressing out over your aquarium then I would advise you to start watching Father Fish's videos. He has provided the answers your looking for and it's free advice to boot. A big Thank You goes out to Father Fish for sharing his wealth of experience, it has been of great value to me and has made me a far better fish keeper and helped me find success in this hobby. And that my friends is my two cents worth.
Well that is worth many bucks kosys. Thank you for the encouragement.
i'm trying to feed my fish every two days, with small portions once that day. And in my opinion they are looking good. Thank you Father Fish :)
Excellent Wojtek
Thank you, Father Fish❤
Excellent tips here! Father Fish you are the MAN!
Thanks for information, i learned alot.
Thanks .... good information 👍
Love the fishing poles in the background : )
You r very knowledgeable person
ThanQ🏴
Thank you sir, you are amazing ❤️
great video woww i was feeding once or twice a day.... lol ok i will do every other day.
Father Fish ❤ terrific information 🙂🐟🐠
So nice of you Isabella, Wonderful to hear from you.
Very important and informative video! 👏🏾 Thank you.
You are so welcome Owen!
Nice video, FatherFish! The tips are very good. The question about food is always a good debate.
Absolutely Fagner!
Thanks very Much Father Fish it really helps a Lot to us❤
I am hooked to listen to this guy is like a guru of fish, I had learned a few tricks after watching you, so thank you keep up the great work !!
Great to hear!
Thank you FF
This video is well put together 👍👍
Thank you Rego.
This is the best channel for information on caring for fish and an aquarium. ❤️🇦🇺
Thank you Sue.
Very informative video. I learned a lot.
Glad to hear it Angie! Thank you.
another good video Father, Thank You🤩
Glad you enjoyed it Jarun!
Live foods are easy once you get into the swing of things. Love the message!
It really is Phillip!
@@FatherFish Congratulations on the recent channel success. Been watching a long time. I gotta get over to discord ASAP!
Your recent videos with addition of mini clips are exciting to watch. I am really thrilled to see your growth on KZhead.
Thank you Rohan. Would love to chat. Join me on Discord.
I discovered this channel today, and it feels like now I have found what I have been looking for for so long. It is also very relaxing to listen to these videos. Starting today I will subscribe to this channel and this one only. Greetings from Sweden
Welcome Kjiell. Join us on Discord for conversation, sharing, and friendship.
Grande mestre! Sabe muito.
Há muito mais que eu não sei
Great information on caring for our Fish friends. Ty FF, God be with you 🙏🏻
Thank you Christopher.
One of the best advice on YT !!! I feed 3 times a week
You go Robert.
This is great information... I have successfully started a 80 gallon planted tank with Father fish.... Thank you for the wealth of knowledge
So nice of you
What a delight coming across your channel, it totally resonates with my look on the world. I’ve got a big tank for 2 years now that is doing okay but now i’m really motivated with getting it thriving the natural way! I will try to ignore my fish begging for food every time i walk by and start with feeding every other day. I will also get some sand in to put over the gravel followed by some dirt from the outside. Thanks for sharing your wisdom!🐟🐟✨
Build a food web gradually.
Thank you for the great information. Lots to think about. I'll be visiting my parents down in Florida at the beginning of next month, I'll definitely stop in. Thanks for all the great info 👍, it's very refreshing in today's high tech fish keeping climate.
Thank you Benny. Sorry I will miss you in Florida. I shut down my store and moved to Maryland.
@@FatherFish Oh, sorry I didn't realize. When did you move?
Great info.
Glad it was helpful TK!
Thanks for the info father fish
You betcha Cat.
Such a very interesting video like always!!! You should really right a book 📕with all you know! It would be awesome!😀
Working on it!
This was great, Father Fish! Thank you 🤗 I feed once a day and don't feed on Sundays. I think I will start to slowly switch to every other day in the tanks that don't have fry. There is plenty of other stuff in the tank for the fish and other inhabitants to nibble on in between 😊
You got this Audra! Join us on Discord. Would love to see your tanks and chat about microfauna and other stuff.
You will have zero problems feeding every other day, I promise you.
Heya ff I got the tank cabinet fixed, it's sitting perfectly, wholey supported on new timber, thanks again 🤝
Great to hear! That's a relief. We were all concerned.
You are looking good Father Fish 👍. I always learn something from each video of yours. 👍👍🙂 thank you.
Thank you John.
@@FatherFish you're welcome 😊
Great advice !! on what to feed and how often to feed your fish I have 9 Goldfish in a 10 gallon tank I've had them for 2 half yrs now .💞🐠🐟
That is awesome! I am guessing none of them is a 10 lb, 2 foot carp!
@@FatherFish no but some are bigger then the others .💞🐠🐟
This video and you . 😌So relaxing so informative 😌 I'm feel good now ....by Ur guidance my fishes are healthy and happy for 4 months 😌deep substrate 🤗 thank you 🤩
So happy to be a help Lucky Days.
Excellent video!
Thank you very much Anselm!
Father Fish just want to say I've been a fish keeper (rainbows/blue eyes) for 33 years and raised lots of babies which in turn I traded and sold across N America. Even so every time I tune in I learn so much! No doubt you've forgotten more than I'll ever know. Keep it coming. Do you have a video dedicated to setting up a tank from scratch as you descibe? I'd watch it.
Try this: kzhead.info/sun/ZNaOYK58e6aCdYk/bejne.html
Nice video ff. Perhaps you could make a series out of it on how too cultivate different foods. Besides live foods it is i think worth mentioning that some fish need a good bit of algea and/or plant in their diets wich sometimes can be difficult for them to get from the aquarium itself or could be less then desireable. And a few will need to take in some wood.
Excellent Maurice. These are not uncommon diets at all and are critical for popular species.
@@FatherFish Certainly. But a not so experienced keeper might not know or not realise the fish in their care do not get enough. Over the years i have told many a goldfish starter that their cute orange friends need some salad on the regular.
When I do watch a video, I find it informative but also very calming🥰 Your voice sounds pretty soothing with your new equipement👍🏻 Definitely want to improve my tank with live foods and a natural start up with wet leaves and micro organisms from a body of water. I'm regurly eyeing some big mason jars with sealed lids at my volunteering job. But I can't do much without a big net with long handle, ideally it would have a fine graded net. What kind of food culture would be good to start with for my ember tetra?
daphnia and paramecium
I love my cory catfish. They are like little vacuum cleaners; cleaning acces food. Japonica-shrimps are great to.
Great information, thanks. You mention live food as being good source of protein. What are your thoughts on frozen foods? Such as frozen brine shrimp, blood worms, krill, mysis shrimp etc.
Frozen is second best.
Hello, how are you, I built an aquarium with your method and there are plants in it. I have about 30 fish and before I was very worried about high nitrates. I tested Nitrate one day and to my surprise it was almost in the 0-5 ppm range. For plants' need for NO3, I feed them 3 times a day and I decided not to change the water, I give additional potassium and iron fertilizers. Surprisingly, everything is going well.
Thanks!
You bet!
Thank you
You're welcome
Thank you for the video father fish
You are very welcome Drine.
Correct! I feel the same way. I feed mainly one quality food and control the protein and fat by how much they get daily. Off non breeding season I feed alot less
That is sensible.
Hello Father Fish. I’m thankful that I found your KZhead channel. Someone in a Fb group, cheered your video about water quality. That you can use vitamin-c in your tap water. We have chlorine in our tap water. I have a 450 Liter aquarium and I change 200 Liter of water every week. I think that I over feeding my fish. They are always hungry, and I don’t want them die. I feed them every morning and evening. In the morning with dry food, and in the evening with frozen food. After this video I must change my food routine. That explains why my filters are so dirty too. Thanks one more time for a excellent video. Daniel from Sweden 🇸🇪😊🙏
Daniel, Feed your fish once every other day. Cut back on the amount and you will find they are more active, healthier, and your tank cleaner.
@@FatherFish Thanks for your answer. I will do that, an only charge 25% of the water. I have just looked at an previously video from you. The important thing that don’t shock your fish with too big water change. In my case 100 Liter water instead of 200 Liter water. Thank one more time for your good tips about fish keeping. 🙏😊😊🥰🙏
Thanks
Welcome
Another great topic with much misunderstanding, and myths... I hope Fahter Fish will live as long as a fish (forever). :D
I only need 1000 more videos to become eternal. lol
Father Fish is correct when he says variety in food is not always a good thing. I found that when I fed my Oscars a variety of foods they would only eat their preferred food and leave the others alone. Nowadays I feed 1 staple food, 1 type of shrimp treat twice a week, and then frozen food once a week.
Thanks for this amazing lecture. How should we feed corydoras? Unlike other fishes, they take time to find and eat their pellets. Kindly advise on the dosage there. Thanks
cories feed on the microorganisms in the substrate.
good job father!
Wow ok, I'm feeding my minnows, zebra danios, harlequin rasbora, pepper Cory's and candy loaches daily, often twice daily, thanks for this vid, I think I might be a fish feeding addict lol. I will definitely cut down on their food, thank-you for this great informative video. 👍🇬🇧❤️
HO HO HO Cookie Monster. Love it. Glad you found some benefit.
Unrelated to this video......but I bought a angel fish and then week later we noticed it has "Camallanus worms"..........and you know so many things.....like 86 degrees or higher water killing ick..........is there any safe/easy way to eradicate Camallanus worms? (Like garlic?) I'm all for natural solutions vs chemical ones.....so asking here first. :)
All I use to feed tiny baby fish is this and it costs nothing and takes almost no effort and has no risk of fowling the water. I keep buckets and tubs outside under the trees and grow moss and algae in them. I Keep a screen over to keep out bigger bugs dragonflies etc and I just put leaves bark and sticks in it. I throw a little grass clippings in now and then and a little bit of flake food but thats not needed I found it gets it going faster. When I have eggs when I am getting fish ready to breed or I have fry I take a clump of moss out of the tub algae and leaves and all stuck to it and throw it straight in the tank with a little bit of mud. Thats it once every week or 2 I put in a bit more or swap it out it has everything growing in it those babies need when they are first hatched for quite a while till they can eat bigger food. That is all I do and it grows them perfectly with no water changes hardly at all. I just have tubs with baby fish and eggs I do that and I start seeing fry in there and they grow and it takes little effort from me. When they look big enough I start giving them some 55% protien powdered up pellets and brine shrimp but I still do the moss from outside even for the breeders because they know it has food in it the babies can eat. It is that easy.
Absolutely brilliant. This is excellent production. Nature is feeding your babies.
Any recommendations (or older videos I’m missing) on culturing paramecium? Haven’t managed that one yet
Truly simple. A jar with tank water in a window with some sunlight and a lettuce leaf. About 3 days and the tank is cloudy with paramecium.
Chicken and seafish mussel..is that oke ff...nice video❤
Yes. Excellent. I did not cover raw foods. ANY seafood is perfect. Raw chicken is excellent.
i have a homemade powder made out of salmon filet and some fruit and vegetable leftovers. Not sure if it's healthier, but the fish are more enthousiastic about eating it. They also eat some larvea every now and then.
good. Do not overfeed. That can cause horrible problems if it rots in the tank.
Nice video father fish. I have some question for you I have apistogrammas in my tanks for long time. And i have struggled alot to keep them alive. Then i realize chemicals is the reason for their deaths. We have a small commuty here and we discover the TEA😂 some tea we drink really😂 adding tea to our tanks lower PH and add really good stuff both for plant and fishes. I wander what you think about adding tea to tanks. (Pls forgive my poor English)
I prefer black tea,All are good.
Ciao from Italy Father Fish How many times a week do you recommend feeding the fish in the aquarium for a Tanganyika Biotope? Thanks for your good advice.
A strong web culture will provide adequate natural food in the form of cyclops and scuds for small Tangs. Feed weekly if you feel it is not enough.
I've been schooled once again by Father fish! You think you know it almost all until you watch a father fish video.
That is awesome AMF!
@@FatherFish Father fish, Iplease correct me if I missed a video on the subject but I've never quite heard your thoughts on the use of driftwoods, branches, etc. Would love to hear your opinion/knowledge on introducing sizable pieces of woods or even twigs into the aquarium.
@@RF_NY1 There is a video, maybee two, years oikf, abut driftwood. I specialized in it at mymy shop. I will do this again from the wild to the tank. Thanks for the heads up. AMF!
Father Fish, thank you for this extremely important and enlightening video. I’ve got a 29 gallon planted deep substrate tank (with lots of leaf litter) with 2 young silver dollars, a young spiny eel, 2 red claw crabs and an African clawed frog. Yesterday as an experiment I dropped in about 2 dozen live worms (primarily in attempt to get their help in improving the substrate). The frog has so far eaten a few, the crabs chopped up a few and ate them, and the eel and silver dollars have been vigorously nibbling on them. Probably only one or two worms actually got into the substrate. The result is that I have about a dozen dead earthworms, some in segments, strewn across the bottom of the tank. The fish are continuing to snack on them. Clearly the experiment was a failure but should I immediately get these deceased worms out of the tank? Or should I let the fish continue to snack on them and let them decompose into the substrate? Am I risking overfeeding and also causing an ammonia spike with their decomposition and extra animal waste?
Push most of them into the substrate. Leave one or two for nibbling. When you feed worms cut them into bite size pieces so that the entire piece is swallowed.
@@FatherFish Thank you so much. God bless you!
Father fish, a bit off topic but i have an outdoor eco system pond 5,000 litres with rocks, gravel and lots of plants. I used to feed the fish every other day but have started to feed them every day in the summer months and stop feeding altogether in the cold winter. I have goldfishes 12 - 14" (biggest ive ever seen), golden orfe/ide 12" and some tench and no koi. What would you suggest on the feeding pattern father fish?
Small amount daily is ok. Correct about cold.
Your points, facts, on the need Not to feed fish a varied diet makes a lot of sense to me. I wish i heard that sooner as I think I have about 15 different fish foods that I rotate 🙃💰
lol. And the worse reality is you believe you are doing the best for them. Funny stuff. Pick the best and stick with it. When you run out switch to another.
Good Day Father..gonna change my setup to FF method..i use canister in my previous setups... ..shall i remove biomedia from them and add more sponge to get more clarity of water
Yes.
GRATITUDE 💥🐟💥
Thankyou Father Fish. I feed twice a day. I need to cut back to once a day at least.
Hey father fish! How many pellets does 1 sucker fish need? I never see him eat cos he’s nocturnal. Thank you love you channel
none
It's so easy to produce cultures of loads of different types of worms etc. Just watch how a fish attacks a wriggling worm and compare how lazily it goes for flake. And....if you feed them aquatic organisms....there's no waste to mess up your tank!
Absolutely correct Jim.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hi Father Fish, in the case of Discus fishes, do you recommend feeding not all days? And how many times per day? My fish are very voracious all the time.
A hungry fish is a healthy fish. Every other day and create a food web. kzhead.info/sun/ZNaOYK58e6aCdYk/bejne.html
Do you recommend this same feeding frequency for a full grown Oscar with tank mates?
Large fish only require food once a week or less. Their stored fats and slow metabolism allows them to eat occasionally and thrive. During breeding season the food increases and they build breeding material and put on fat.
How often would you feed Gold fish that live in an outdoor pond in Florida? I actually live in the tampa area
never
I feed on Wed & Sunday. 🐠 Great video
That is awesome Bacon!
I feed three times a day a small amount in the community tank.Nothing gets left over.I have snails, amanos and loaches.And detritus worms.I have not had a fish with a belly (yet...).😊
Most critical to have a biological system that can handle the increased bioload. Build slowly.
Great! All clear now! Thank You! I hope my goldfish will use to it haha as now they are less active. Looking forward to more info about goldfish, please... 🙌🙌🙌
Good luck!
Try improving the biodiversity in the tank(ff has videos on that). But then find something like moss which will grow faster than they can eat, make sure to get as much of it as possible since it's really good for nitrates
My goldfish became way more active since i increased my biodiversity. They like hunting stuff believe it or not. My goldfish are absolute units, i only feed once every 4 days now, they eat off of the moss and microorganisms daily though. You should join the discord if you haven't already. There should be people more experienced with tanks than I. But i hope this little bit has helped you with the goldfish.
@@ZK-hl6gx Thanks ZK. So many folks love goldfish.
@Father Fish Thank You :)
❤
Where I live commonly available types of dried fish food are dried daphnia, gammarus, shrimp and decapsulated brine shrimp eggs. Is it a good idea to feed fish with these? I am wondering because on the one hand, they are not live, they are dried, and they don't get artificially enriched with additional vitamins, but on the other, they are natural, they are not flakes or pellets. What would you say?
Top is live. Second is frozen. Third is freeze dried. After that are prepared foods.
@@FatherFish Those shrimp, daphnia, etc. aren't freeze dried. They are just dried, apparantly. Is that better than flakes and pellets or worse? I heard contradicting opinions. I am just confused.
I have a different question: it concerns algae growing on my hood glass panel. It blocks the light. Would coating it with a natural oil stop it from forming on that plexiglass panel??
The oil will enter the water and create a scum that will prevent oxygen exchange.
@FatherFish Of course that's a concern..do you have a remedy?
how often to feed an adult oscar? give raw shrimp or baby carp once a week? give until full and wait for another 1 or 2 weeks to eat? please explain thank you
😌🥰😘that's father fish 😌, hey bro, in my aquarium lot of dust like silt under the sand bed is can go down on the sand bed???? Or else it's stay for years???? 😅can this make ammonia levels??? 🧐 And my aquarium got planaria i have shrimps and guppy fries, guppy fries didn't eat planaria, so they keep increases, in web planaria is harmful to shrimps some said 😅is it true?? Means how to get rid of planaria, My aquarium is 2 x 1 x 1 ft tank,, I got 2 1/5 inch deep substrate 😌guide me sir
Add a fish like a betta to clean up the planaria. Do not know what you mean about dust. Probably need to add another 2" of sand to your substrate.
@@FatherFish 🤔done sir
Do you have a video regarding Betta fish? You hit the nail on the head: they’ve trained me to feed them daily.😂 I’ll stop doing that. Thank you.👍🏼
Not yet!
Used to be very diligent in changing water, adding chemicals into the water and feeding them but my tank ended up as a graveyard 😢 then before i gave up this hobby, i noticed my smaller tank which i have been ignoring it not only thrive so well, the plants and the fishes in it were doing so well! So, less is actually more 😊
Fyi, I've not changed water for more than a year and my tank is doing so well!
excellent observation.
MY16 inch RED DOVII,I iust introduced regular 6 inch female dovii,I built her huge TUBe system,AND woodwork. Will they ever spawn?
Feed her heavily with high protein, especially fish. Once she eggs up it is inevitable.
@@FatherFish ok thankyou Sir,GOOD LUCK
Happy to say my ammonia spike is gone n I can't believe after all my years of fish keeping I over fed!? I was on vacation n spent to much time in front of my tank feeding lol. Beautiful careful those little fish will trick ya lol they always act hungry!
Don't let your fish train you. lol
My albino bristlenoses are on the nest in my planted tank, any tips on catching them without destroying the set up?
Use a large net or trap them in their nest. If you can leave them in the tank the babies will have a better chance of surviving.
Father Fish....how are you feeding the Repashy Superfly to the fish ? Do you have a video discusses it ?
I feed it direct.
Does this apply to feeding cichlids, apistogramma, larger tetra like a serpae tetra or phantom tetra?
yes
I had been feeding my fish just once every two/three days exacty as Father Fish said for years. My tank is very heathy, no need for water change, i just need to fill it up once a week. Feeding the fish is the most enjoyable so Don't do it much 😜 😂😂
i feed my tropical fishes 3 time a week. For goldfish just 2 time a week. It is just perfect for them. They grow slowy as they grow naturally and live more longer.
Absolutely Melissa.
Do you have any easy live food ideas without a starter culture?
The resurrection jar is intended to provide just that.
What food is small enough to feed the newborn fry of egg layers like goldfish and koi?
live: microworm and paramecium. dry: larvae powder. I see these at father.fish.
What are the names of fish food u offer on ff website for adult angelfish? There's not much description
I do not have foods listed. I will work on it.
I liked this
father fish how do i feed my axolotls? there is a lot of food leftovers if it is daphnia shrimp can't cope with cleaning))) thank you very much
take them out and feed them in a separate feeding container. When they poop put them back in their tank.
@@FatherFish Father fish, please tell me, can you send me your magic substrate supplements with compost to Japan? I have a 60cm wide tank about 4 years, but but I got tired of changing the water there😂 thanks for your answer❤
@@user-ce2jm1hz4t Sorry I cannot
@@FatherFish thanks for answer❤️
My friend has tank with gravel and plastic plants. She keeps guppies. She feed them just simple food from the shop. And she gets babies. And they survive without special food. Does it depends on the fish ? Can babies survive with dry pallets from shop?
Fish are very sturdy creatures able to survive under difficult circumstances sucha s gravel and plastic plants with cheap food.
@@FatherFishmy 2 tAnks are gravel and all fake plastic... Guppies, neons, rasbporas all doing well..
