‎ Cory visited the first ever Kölle Zoo, a German pet store that both Oliver Knott and Chris Lukhaup used to work at in the 1990's. They have all sorts of fish, including a nano section specially stocked with colorful shrimp varieties, endlers, and bulldog plecos. Cory was especially intrigued by their system of using reusable containers (which come with acclimation instructions), instead of fish bags. There is also an indoor cafe where you can sit next to koi ponds under the shade of live trees.

*What feature or cool thing at Kölle Zoo do you think Cory should bring to the Aquarium Co-Op?*

@inraviratious6418 Год назад

I think that indoor pond that you can easily view would be a great addition. Kind of like a "slice of nature" area. Maybe you could grow out Amazonian plants in that area as well. The containers are also pretty freaking cool.

@mikejurnak4253 Год назад

Would you ever move out of the store? I do like the containers over bags

@its_hutch_7505 Год назад

Definitely the reusable containers. All Aquarium shops should start using recycled plastic reusable containers ASAP.

@bat8512 Год назад

I agree that the resusable containers are GREAT!

@kurtbrutting5118 Год назад

It’s amazing how far advanced Germany and Europe is in aquarium keeping then the states. Hopefully we eventually get there. I love the buckets!

@dt4676 Год назад

My lfs is bs in comparison but people always give him random fish he sells as feeders and that's how I'm filling out my tanks and breeding them to feed the fry to other fish

@EBSELPROAUDIO Год назад

Not just in Aquarium keeping...

@HermannTheGreat Год назад

Advanced in tech maybe, not in talent to keep and breed fish. Anybody can throw endless money at a tank/lights/filtration. The goal of this type of store is to create artwork, and their buyer segment is tiny, and it's a luxury for most people. A store like this if it even would survive in the States would need to be in a HCOL highly populated area.

@userequaltoNull Год назад

It seems to be mostly for rich people.

@sandymouse73 Год назад

Love this example of a "local" fish store! I know it's a chain store but I feel that in America it would have to start on the local level. You need to jump on this Cory!

@beedlebeeb Год назад

That's the coolest fish store I've ever seen, i would love to spend a weekend just hanging out in it

@karenleigh2138 Год назад

This store is just amazing. I'd never buy online if I had a store like this closeby.

@Bigfoots_world Год назад

I love the reusable buckets. We all need more containers in the fish room

@CJBlack265 Год назад

The tags on the submerged growth (fully converted) plants to the tissue culture containers for sale - such a simple, useful system. The tag system could carryover to the potted plants as well. Love that idea💕👍

@annika8877 Год назад

I live in Germany and it's really interesting to see you visiting so many stores here and how they are different from American stores! Regarding the reusable buckets: I have a small 20l tank with some Red Cherry Shrimp and snails. Sometimes I will sell some of my shrimp if they become too many. I then usually use small, transparent plastic buckets (maybe 0.5 to 1l) that I bought with food inside (like potato salads) as transport box. If you have something like that available I can really suggest you to use it. They close very tightly, should not contain any harmful chemicals and the people can watch the animal's from the outside. Plus they are complete free as I bought the food anyway. :D

@Wildman-lc3ur Год назад

I love the bucket concept, especially how it has instructions on acclamation. I do the bucket method Which involves pouring the bag into a bin or bucket and slowly pouring water into the bucket and net the fish afterwards. I especially love how they mention to not feed the fish until the next day

@aquaticma Год назад

I REALLY love the idea of reusable fish transfer containers. I don't why it hasn't caught on in all chain stores here!

@dgrwd Год назад

It's fairly new in Germany. My local Kölle Zoo started like 2 years ago, before that it was only bags like in most other fish stores or DIYs with an aquarium section, which is pretty common in Germany.

@vampgaia Год назад

Nice store. I like their box system and their bucket system. Good ideas.

@shawnsshrimpcorner3169 Год назад

@linab4901 Год назад

In Germany a lot of things are great but its ecpensive… most of your money vanishes because of taxes and other things 😅

@poeticsong725 Год назад

Wow. My jaw is on the floor. This store is amazing and I'm jealous we don't have ones this good in Texas. The reusable containers, the fish, the shrimp, the pamphlets, omg those PLANTS!

@BrianComradovichRadovich Год назад

I think the "bulldog plecos" at 3:12 might actually be Parotocinclus Jumbo (Pitbull Pleco/Otos), (which would explain why they're in the Nano section). Popular over there, but real hard to find over here. I think I'm on three different websites' wait list for these. Had them back in 2011, kicking myself for not breeding them. It's a fish that never stops working. Doesn't have interesting color/fin morphs like Bristlenose, but also doesn't redecorate your tank for you. You'll watch it pick up a pebble, roll it around in its mouth, and spit the thing out completely spotless.

@nabokovfan87 Год назад

The German word for catfish is officially one of the most fun things to say in the hobby! 😂 so cool to see that on the pamphlet. as for buckets instead of bags, one of the biggest issues is that those buckets are never getting recycled. Similar in issue to something Nespresso pods have to deal with. it's all designed with a specific purpose, but especially in the US people just can't be bothered sometimes and that creates insane waste. In terms of raw material to produce the buckets, energy to do so, etc. I don't know that that balances out in terms of environmental cost.

@thomasb4467 Год назад

I think it would if you have to pay for it as you do with those.

@Danthemant1000 Год назад

Love the buckets! Can use them over and over again. Plus I might not get the strange looks when I go to my lfs with my pitcher.

@WhoTheHellIsHarvy Год назад

HEY CORY! That all-in-one tank looks like my main tank, that is maybe a better quality/brand if it's not the same one (Superfish). The ugly filter box inside can be easily removed with a long thin utensil like a spatula or something. It's a very strange design choice and will obviously make any scape redundant. Using a HOB on these tanks is a must. They are really cool tanks to play around with.

@mattkinsella9856 Год назад

It's a good point made about the pricing of the Eheim feeder. If people are just always driving down the price on Amazon or eBay and that's all people are chasing, then these stores can't make a profit and we won't see this level of quality to browse. Maybe that's where U.S. stores have fallen behind in the last 20 years. Personally I do buy some cheaper things online but I ALWAYS make a point of visiting my local fish stores every 2-3 weeks and buying something I need, without looking at the price. Just to play my small part in trying to make sure they are always there. If we all made that effort perhaps more stores could improve and aim at the level of the place in this video.

@growclipbonsaiforseniors1951 Год назад

@adam6am Год назад

The all-in-one setup towards the end is marketed under the Superfish brand here in the UK. I had one for my first tank. It was ideal for a beginner, the filtration was fine with the only problem being some slight noise as the filter unit vibrated against the internal box that contained it. But I soon wanted more flexibility in terms of filtration and lighting. Still, as I say, a really good option for a first tank.

@gottobekidingme Год назад

getting your money back for the buckets is a great business model because people get another reason to come back and maybe buy more fish or product.

@onehitterquitter2130 Год назад

More education on the different fish sold in stores in the U.S. is needed.

@erikm8372 Год назад

Love those reusable boxes. Not to mention those containers are probably more comfortable en route home for the fish! Not flopping all over, pinching in the corners potentially. Just evenly sturdy. And the fact the fish or shrimp can't see out is less stress for them. Kinda like blindfolded horses or other animals...I've used similar containers for tank acclimation, and it's way less stress for the new fish, because they can't see the new environment as the temps are acclimating. If you're introducing fish to an established tank, the clear bags are definitely stress-inducing, with all your older fish poking around like "who's this?! What are you doing here?!" Alternatively I've wrapped clear bag in a black plastic bag... water temps even out just the same rate

@jackmadder-copping4188 Год назад

i have the 'home 110' tank that you like the all in one function, its nice but i have to say has its flaws, one that i have found is that the glass lid condensates alot and if you remove it you have alot of splash from the filter that causes buildup on the light. the other side is the filter box that is there is limited and you cant modify it much without it looking out of place. i would like to see a mod that you can pull the filter outlet via the back and have it run along the back.
