I don’t think so, it does raise the ph but I think if it was bicarbonate it would dissolve easier. Not sure what it is but finicky Sulawesi shrimp, especially wild ones, seem to do best with this mineral

@@onlywei thank you! 🙏 really appreciate it 😊

Thanks for watching! 🙏

No, it was a good fight but Zac Summers from SC Fishkeeping ended up winning

I think they have creams for that!!

😅 I usually leave a spot for them in cases like that

Never had that issue, I’m sure it’s possible to create anaerobic bacteria and hydrogen sulfide gasses if you were to create a deep sand bed and block oxygen from getting in but 1-2” deep sand in a tank has never caused this, appreciate the tip tho, thank you 🙏

LOL let me guess, a corporation that is getting rich selling you equipment also recommended that you have a filter and heater and…….

@EverybodyAquatic not saying Simply having a deep sandbed will do that but covering a lot of organic waste with sand (Though I've never encountered this issue either just thought it would be something to mention as i have heard it recommended..)

Wouldn't this just act as sand cap, containing the nutrients in the soil for the plants instead of leeching into the water column?

@@BrodysBettas in theory yes but the fear a lot of people have is that the waste can build up gases under the sand that will then rise and expel out and that those bubbles could kill your fish. I’ve never had this happen and the instances that I’ve heard of it happening the people say a bubble floated up and directly into a fish. As this is an extremely unlikely scenario it’s not something I worry about. I also remove waste when doing water changes so there isn’t much to bury, this was just adding some sand to the tank bc over time the roots of plants were becoming exposed

Awesome thank you! I’m actually subscribed to you too bc I used to be the face of another channel owned by a local fish store that doesn’t exist anymore and you and I commented back and forth a few times last year, good to see and hear from ya again and love the videos!

@@cef8156 are you asking where you get a tank this size? Typically they are custom made by a company like us or others, most pre-made tanks only go up to a size of about 220 gallons or so

Thank you!!! I really appreciate that 🙏🙏

Ty ​@@EverybodyAquatic

At no point in this video did I state that I know them ✌️

@@EverybodyAquatic I don’t even know why I had a rant I think I had too much to drink apologies ☺️

😂😂 all good man no worries

Maybe 27 file fish will do the trick

@@EverybodyAquatic I'd evac and sterilize the tank at that point, why even spend that much

😅 aren’t we all nerds if we’re THIS into fish tanks?

@@EverybodyAquatic no I mean like LRB is half his size. Mainly in muscle mass 😂

@@EvilxYardxGnomeyeah I mean seein him go up against Rod woulda def been a show

Yes, 2 gallon. The guppy is back with his friends in a 10 gallon now, this was just for the show, it’ll probably just stay as a shrimp tank in the future

@@hopeflynn3930 thank you!! Building a scape they wouldn’t dig up was the hard part lol

@@EverybodyAquatic well you did a wonderful job! 😊

Thanks again! More to come 🙌

Thank you! 🙏 next year we’re going for 1st lol

@@willfultrain6779 hippo tang! When we upgrade the other reef tank I would love to do that

@willfultrain6779 royal gramma is a cheap easy fish from finding Nemo cleaner shrimp for French dude only problems is star fish and puffers aren't very reef safe

All good ideas thanks! this tank is plumbed into another, bigger soft coral dominant tank as 1 system

@@jimmiejay8196 😅 you might be onto something here 🧐

😂😂 I don’t even know what’s the correct way. Like is it spelled conch but pronounced “conk”?? The world may never know

🫶🏻 LETS GO!!! 🗣️🗣️

Sorry to hear this, I had this happen once too when a hang on back filter overflowed down the wall, outlet burnt up, I ended shutting the breaker and swapping that out let for a new one just in case and then using clear packing tape to kind of make a shield around that outlet and the plug in it that diverted any water that did run down the wall from actually going in the outlet, never had that problem again

2.5gal so 9.4liters

@@EverybodyAquatic so that means, three scoops for 9.4 litres? And once this settled down, how much the pH and kh gh comes into?

@@ShubhadipRoy no I overdosed it on purpose to make a concentrated version, you water it down with RO water afterwards until you get a TDS reading of 140-150ppm which should give you a gh 6 kh 4

@@ShubhadipRoy and you use an air stone to gas off the C02 that comes from the soda steam

@@EverybodyAquatic thanks for sharing that, actually I used to add one scoop to 20 litre, but the pH reading is coming always very low to 7.4 and kh/gh 5/7

I keep them right around 83f which is 28c

That’s a good point I didn’t think of that

Thanks! Never too late to start

Def has Spider-Man colors

Thank you! Yeah so far they’re doing amazing, in a couple months we should have a huge colony

That canister im using is 2.5gal so roughly 9.4 liters

​@@EverybodyAquatic thank u

How much water the jar holds?

@@ShubhadipRoy it’s 2.5gal so roughly 9.4 liters
