Aquarium videos reminds me of my childhood memories cuz in my childhood i was fascinated by aquariums and beautiful fishes so i managed to convince my dad to buy me an aquarium and after purchasing the aquarium i used to watch youtube videos all day about how to decorate aquariums and how to make planted aquariums for my fishes so that's how these videos gives me nostalgia.
I'm a complete beginner. Can I put aquasoil as one layer or no sand/gravel? OR, a layer of sand on top of aquasoil? I'm planting seeds now but it's just on aquasoil and mineral balls underneath the soil 😢
🤔The two males will chase her and stress her to the point if death. They really need a separate tank. They will out grow the one they are in within a years time. They can get between 6” and 8” on average.
At first glance, everything is beautiful and smooth. but. In fact, any more or less experienced aquarist will immediately see critical errors. The first is a few bushes of ocelot echinodorus in the background. This plant grows both in width and height, it is not for this 36 cm high aquarium. The second is staurogin repens - he needs a living space for growth, and he was pinned down by a snag and pinned by a groundcover plant - Monte Carlo, he will have nowhere to grow. And the third is pisces. You launched the hydrobiont immediately after launch - they are all suicides and victims of your carelessness. You have created a beautiful picture for uncomprehending people and pushed them to repeat your mistakes. After all, judging by your video, everything is simple. I stuck the plants in and launched the fish. No one canceled the nitrite peak in the second week of the aquarium's life and algae outbreaks in the first two months of biobalance adjustment.
My tank looked nearly that bad with some hair algae, but was loaded with brown algae mostly. I fought it for a month & then it suddenly went away on its own & it finally settled into a pristine, black water tank that while it's loaded with tannins, it's basically liquid rock. I think that's due to the seiryuu stone. I removed all but 1 2x2" piece & it was still liquid rock until I added 5 dried, oak leaves a week later & now it's sitting around 7.2, which is progress... =p (ETA: no filtration. Natural, planted tank with only 1 dose of liquid fertilizer to kickstart some floaters.)
My God I just finished the video... I still can't stand the fact that you destroyed the tank... Funny and sad simultaneously. I would even give some water lettuce to cover the tank, turn off the filters and that would be more than enough...
