Honestly American and Canadians have massive houses. So lucky. The $ a gallon aquarium sales is mind blowing. You are literally so lucky across the pond. Thank you for sharing. From Wales UK
Thats a zone 🎉 This is somebody that can run a store. Or just kick back and enjoy. Fish keeping is a art and we should be giving out crowd funded awards to different classes of Aquarium Rooms. This is a Masters Room. Cheers
I just love how he has been able to get that much done in the few years since he moved in, and I can't think of anyone who has so many unique systems that are all fully functional not to mention the inhabitants is as diverse as it gets. I love the wine fridge trickle filter, and the zero edge was my 1st time seeing it running. My favorite tank was his 700-gallon frag / stingray. Just entertained the idea of making myself feel productive ¿ I just can't imagine how ever-ending things would be for me and I will be happy with everything that I have been doing but I am going to make some little DIY filtration designs by Stein Thanks, Sean, for sharing this
A great tour of an amazing home! Besides the reptiles, I could definitely deal with a place like that. Glad to see Knoxville with an Aquarium Society now.
I am from California. I believe that Tennessee has the best fish keepers. Amazing what kind o members your club has. May they live long and happy. Thank You and please keep sharing your members lives and loves because it truly inspires the rest of us.
How fantastic! What a beautiful place. The yard is incredible! What beauty. I love the critters, especially the Cayman. How cool is that? I would love to have a 300 gallon like that, too. Wow. Thank you for sharing. I'm on awe.
Aside from clownfish & certain damsels most other reef fish go through a tiny, planktonic phase nearly impossible to replicate in captivity once the eggs hatch. That’s why they haven’t been bred successfully in captivity. Id be interested in knowing how you intend to raise the fry after they hatch, assuming you get them to spawn.
The Sulcata Tortoises’ shells are pyramiding which is a sign of metabolic bone disorder. Have they been getting Vit D3 illumination (light bulbs) during winter supplemented with a powdered calcium supplement on their food (like Reptomin)? They should have smooth shells (like the box turtles.) They are a desert tortoise and would do well with some access to direct sunlight during the day while outdoors. All reptiles are subject to getting MBD and need Vit D3, even the Cuvier’s Dwarf Caimen. Crocodilians exhibit MBD by teeth eventually splaying outward on the jaw and/or jaw/hip malformity as they age. Have you considered keeping him outside in a pond to get some natural sunlight during the summer? He can be kept with the snapping turtles (see RU-vid’s “Kamp Kenan; Caimen Creek” for reference.) He has 3 housed with snappers in the water and (Redfoot) land tortoises on the land in the enclosure(s.)
I've only had the sulcatas for about 6 months, they were given to me, so I've been working on getting them what they need and supplementing their diets tremendously. They have been great torts and have really become active with the varied diets they been getting along with supplements they receive. I strive to provide all lighting recommended for indoor enclosures, but I have no plans on putting the caiman outside. Too many stories in Tennessee of caimans getting loose. Lol, I also watch Kenan, and he a great source of knowledge.
Oh, trust me I know how hard it is to breed the ornamental marine fish in captivity. Dwarf angels have been done, but we are talking a hand full of people in the world. My dream is to be one of the handful. I've selected the dwarf flame angel because they are my favorite. I've been doing research for over a year now, and have plenty of time to research the live cultures, since I selected juveniles to pair. I'm following Kathy Leahy who has been able to produce in her basement and hope to experiment with many different methods. I am attempting this as truly a challenge and going into it with the reality that it may never happen. But I'll never know until I try, is my attitude.
While I enjoy your videos ... the camera shake on this video was a bit much for me ... I was watching this on my 55" TV, so it was just too much. It might not be a noticeable on a smaller computer monitor or phone~
