What do you feed them

Great video! One thing I would add is a cinder block with the holes horizontal so the minnows have a place to hide and cut down on stress.

I build my own aerators from simple materials. I get a cheap 12v bilge pump. Take a eight inch square of one inch thick styrofoam. Cut a circle out of the center of the foam that is just large enough for the intake of the pump to fit in. Tie rap the pump to the foam. Place it in the tank with the pump being fed by a battery or 12v transformer. It will practically foam the water with air. Decades ago most bait camps had large troughs for bait and had large aerators that hung down in the tanks. This works nearly as well and shouldn't cost more than $30 to build. I should mention it floats upside down intaking air from above and blowing water and air out under the foam.

Like it . Great job you did.

That is cool man!

Great idea, thanks. Loved the music❤

Nice build! Great job

Outstanding.

So i was trying to come up with a way to store all my left over minnows throughout the year. Came across this as i was thinking of something along the same lines as this. How did the minnows hold up? Would u change anything?I fish all year around here in Wisconsin.

So my thought on this is to replace the original 12 volt battery that the ice house came with a 12 volt 100 amp hr lithium and leave that wired by itself. Use another 12 volt 150 amp hr lithium with the inverter.Lithiums do not have to be vented so take out the battery vent that goes to the outside and replace that with a 120volt outdoor socket. Use an 120 volt 1500 watt inverter on battery #2 and feed the 120volts back in to the ice house from the 120volt socket and into the 30amp original socket that you will reduce to 120 volts.This would then give you 120volt power threw all your original plugs,run your microwave and charge battery #1 from the ice house converter.You would then just remove the one battery for charging. This would then prevent you from running wires threw your house.

music is annoying!!

I like it but the music has to go

I mean, charging lead acid batteries produce hydrogen gas. Not a problem when you’re draining them, but an issue when you’re running the generator which recharges your batteries too. 5:47

Nice build

Bro this song is 🔥 so fire 🔥

Is there any way you can make a amazon list and make a link??

I’m really thinking of doing this for next season

It looked like in the video that there was a quite a bit of current from the filter system, read somewhere that minnows would last longer if they didn’t have to swim hard, but did you find that the cinder blocks broke up any of that current?

Love the simplicity of this build. I’ve had some Fathead minnows alive for 3 weeks now in just a 5 gal bucket with a aerator (Jan 7 thru 26-2023 Florida weather), Well water, and a little bit of bread crumbs. Kinda worried about keeping the water cool in the heat in my shed but I have some frozen water bottles ready 😂. I guess that’s about all I can do with such a small setup but does anyone know of another way….that’s portable to keep the water temperature cool enough to survive per say 103° heat?😢

Interesting to see what someone has thought of. See some things that I might consider.

Best way to make coffee is old school percolating on gas, or boil water and make it French press. That’s how I do coffee on and off grid.

This is pretty awesome. How is the set up today?

Won't keep minnows noway to keep them cool

Thankyou for video..how crisp is your vegetables??..I was thinking of asking pickle crisp🤔..can't stand soggy asparagus..I use store canned to make soup with..take care

Hi just a question so far I have salt water bait tank with mullet in them 20 mullet iv tried before but all dies I have filter system wool and black pvc water change once a week 30 50 percent no chemicals medicine used feeding only after 3 or 4 days still kills them now I did new tank with seperate filter in a bucket added sone rock and salt water plants is there any thing wrong with what im doing do ihave to as chemicals medicine and when how often thanks

Hey, saw you took it down in a comment 9 months ago. If you can reply I have a couple questions. I’m doing live shrimp (costal) and I just need some that I buy from a bait shop to just stay alive for a few days while I work so I can just go out my back yard basically and fish rather then drive 25 mins to the bait shop.

I like this

Me and my Husband can do that. ❤️

Did you use rain water ?

Nice! Greetings from India 💖

Hi. Where did you purchase your power equipment from and/or what brands are they? Please reply. Thank you.

What happened at the end? The jars weren't filled to the top. That's going to cause contamination. What a rookie thing to do!

How do you charge the batteries? Did you install a charger or just use single 12volt battery charger?

the flute music intro was a horrible idea

Does this freeze up if your garage isn't heated?

Nice content. Just subb’d

Heck Ya!

Great video mane. going to make one

THATS SOLID

Very cool! A great idea. How are they doing three years on? Are you able to breed and sustain minnows with this set up?

Song gotta go

How do you keep the water temp cold at 34 degrees?

How long do they last in the jar? And do you keep them refrigerated?

is that just like a garbage can you are using or like can you give a link or something

that looks sooooooo good at the end eating it!!! makes me want to get back into the woods

rather than shaking spores, carry them in a mesh bag like an old onion sack so that they continue to drop spores as you walk!

love it, i've done this myself, we got morels and coral mushrooms, fresh lake trout, and wild asparagus and ramps and cooked them all up over a campfire while camping near the canadian border!

How long does that tv last for now operating with that inverter and batteries ?

Nice I think I'll make one to keep chubs and suckers
