INCREDIBLE Fish at the Scranton Aquarium

INCREDIBLE Fish at the Scranton Aquarium
Had no clue about the instructions inside Lol. Thnx!
They somehow get out of the net breeding box 😭
A lot of fish jump so I recommend a lid and the net breeder adjusted so it's as close to the lid as you can get it.
Hello, I'm a Brazilian fan of yours. I want to set up a botanical aquarium with darker waters, but I have a question. At the beginning, when the aquarium starts to cycle, can I add the leaves/branches Or do I do this after cycling is finished?
You can add them as it's cycling. No need to wait.
I hate this weed.
Lol
@@IansFishRoom Monthly i pull a packed 5g bucket out of my aquarium. Granted it supports all the life in the tank and most likely is the main filter, but it looks so bad when it decides to over grow and choke out all the other plants.
Can you float it or it needs soil substrate?
You probably could float it but it's definitely going to be better planted in soil or substrate.
Great video, thanks. The metal clip is PERFECT for my bait bucket. Keeps the pump above the water level which prevents backwash. It also came with a clip for the hoses to prevent backwash. My charger is slightly different. USB but has a magnet in the pump end.
Thanks for watching!
Is it ok to put a frozen green beans in?
Yep
im thinking about getting a pleco for my 55 gallon and i would not be able to feed them bloodworms because my zebra danios turn into mini piranhas and eat all in 0.73 seconds
Even if you feed after lights out?
@@IansFishRoom I don't feed them with lights outs but i will try tonight since i haven't fed them today
Mines been struggling to grow and mines next to the window
Are you using root tabs?
My pleco are same size from 6 month
What kind of pleco and how big is it? They do slow their growth rate as they get older.
@@IansFishRoom it's albino bristle nose and there size is 1-1.5 inch
Thanks! Great video..
Thanks for watching!
Just take it out from the stand and hold it by the handle in 1 hand and with other hand open the valve above your container even in the living room watching favourite show. Whats bad about it? 😂
There are definitely easy work around but if you like to strain your shrimp that won't work. It doesn't need to be changed but I think a slight modification would be great.
It seems to be susceptible to green hair algae. Solutions?
Less light or amano shrimp. You can also increase water change schedule unless you water is heavy in iron.
OK, thanks!
how can i add something to brace if i have a 70 gallon tall
Personally I wouldn't attempt it with this tank....but...you could get some glass cut that is the same thickness and silicone it as cross braces.
my jungle val is growing so slowly. no runners after 2 months. i hope it does this
Did you add root tabs?
@@IansFishRoom yes
Tnx tim it really helped😊😊.
Awesome!
How do you finagle this with an already planted and scaped tank? I’ve bought two of these freaking things, one from Petco and one from Amazon, neither fit what they claimed to fit, and I hate them both lol but I have big stone in the middle and a bunch of plants…. And some grumpy male guppies that need a timeout 😑 I’m at a loss cus they are all siblings, were in a five gallon, living perfect fine. As they got bigger I decided to move them to a 20 gallon and THEN they started bein jerks to each other 🙄 there were 11 fish in there, 2 ended up being females I accidentally mis-sexed. Got them out and now there are 9 males, I thought maybe taking the females out would snap them back to reality and clam down, cus maybe they were super charged by their presence? But they literally NEVER bothered the females, they were always doing their own thing. Whereas the dudes got all crazy with each other. lol anyway….. how do you make this work with all the stuff in there??
Unfortunately you don't. Your going to have to move the substrate.
@@IansFishRoom I ended up just moving the fish lol the stupid things wouldn’t stay put
Does the 8 times through the day work for any1 i cant get it to work
It works for me but I don't use it. I just set it for 3 times. It does need an hour between each time set so that may be part of your issue.
I just bought a bluetooth Hyger light and my iphone cannot find the light. Yes, the bluetooth function on my phone is turned on.
Did you download the tuya app?
Yes, the light can never be discovered unless you unplug and plug the power 3 times to force it to go into discover mode.
So this isnt possible with my 30 Gal what type of braces do you recommend
A lot of people use small panes of glass silicone for braces.
I'm planning to do a similar tank soon too and was also debating between sand and fluorite! Are you happy you went with sand? The only worry I had was with anaerobic issues with sand.
This tank is long gone but I've been happy with sand in many tanks.
I just cleaned 20 pounds worth. Wow! This stuff holds a lot of debris. I paid $2.73 per pound after taxes (8.25%) There is a BOGO 50% off decor right now in the app. I am only a tad disappointed in the size. Was really hoping for a nice "centerpiece" and then fillers to go around. But it is a great product. Once you get it cleaned up. Thanks for sharing!
You really have to piece it together to make it look like one big piece for a centerpiece
@IansFishRoom I ended up trading all my pieces to my LFS for one single 16" piece. I did end up with a one if a kind stone, but overall, I feel like I might have gone a bit overboard with my build.
Thank you sir
You're welcome!
I have a tank of Ember Tetras that are always eating their eggs whenever they spawn. Hoping guppy grass will give me some babies! I just love my embers and want to have some forever.❤
How are you making out with those ember tetra babies?
Where can I buy a replacement frame? Ive checked Amazon, Ebay, and looked on line and cant find a place that has just a frame for cheap.

This is more than 3 steps
Step 1 remove rim Step 2 remove silicone Step 3 sand rough edges Anything else is just the details.
Do you think its risky to do it on a 20 long? I really want a cool saltwater coral aquascape with rimless aquarium
The risk goes up as you go up in tank size but you could consider bracing the top by siliconing a piece of glass across the top.
I absolutely love guppy grass, but I just wish you could plant it. Every time I've planted it the bottom dies off and the rest dies soon after. Floating it does great, but I just don't like the look of it Floating. For Floating plants I prefer frogbit, salvinia or red root floaters
I've never had good luck planting it either.
Hi!!! I have a 3-in-1 filter too. The problem is, i think its too strong for the tank… it creates a current and the fish swim against it. I feel like they wont have a time to sleep so i took the pump off. Is that alright or should i put it back on? 😢
It's going to depend on your set up and fish but if your worried it's too much flow I'd suggest adding some hardscape to give different areas of the tank different flow rates.
I bought some (only 1 lfs had it) for a guppy tank. It grows so easily and rapidly that I added it to 3 other tanks. I used to have hornwort years ago, but it shed too much. I ❤️ guppy grass.
Guppy grass is definitely better than hornwort!

I hate hornwort because of that issue.

Good stuff
I’m going to do this to a spare 5 gallon and turn it into a terrarium for jewel orchids so thank you!
Awesome!
Im converting small tank for inside a bigger tank
I'd love to see that!
For anyone buying these lights, specifically the 3ft 50w model there's a faulty batch. To discern if you have one of these lights, using the manual controls set the light to sunlight mode then using the up and down arrows reduce the brightness to the lowest setting then start increasing it. If the light turns a pinkish colour on the way back up at any stage you have a faulty LED driver on the green channel. I bought 4 of these and 2 were faulty. Run the test a couple of times to be sure.
Did you contact Hygger about this? I'd like to hear how they respond.
Would you suggest the same for a candy stripe Pleco, I've had him a few months and all he does is hide and not grow
Candy stripe plecos need more meat in their diet then most plecos so I'd be sure to do a decent amount of frozen shrimp, bloodworms, etc. but otherwise yes.
Lovin' that MetaFrame tank! I think the rocks are cool looking, just not my cup of tea... I'm more into river rocks and/or slate. I'm from Vermont and you can find them all around. Great video! Thank you.
Thanks for watching and I prefer river rock too. My 75g is actually currently scaped with a bunch of local river rock.
👍👍😊😊
Thanks for watching/commenting!
The problem is that if your fish tank is not at the same height level where you connect the hose forget it go back and take your bowl
You can still siphon out the water but you'd have to leave your water running at the faucet. It would be a big waste of water but it is possible.
I found out when I had a weight restriction of 15 pounds
Definitely need a different solution than buckets at that point.
Hi, I want to add a plastic frame to my aqueon 11.5 x 11.5 cube aquarium tank. I've seen many come apart and I don't want to lose my fish or destroyed the kitcken cabinets. If you know where I can purchase a frame for it, please let me know thank you.
Not sure they have what you want but I'd look here www.aquariumframeswholesale.com/
Guppy grass is great....just hard to keep alive sometimes. Shrimp love it!!!!!
It definitely seems to like some water better than others.
@@IansFishRoom always the darned water parameters....lol
Just be careful guys. Do what you wanna do but me personally I wouldn’t do it to a tank bigger than a 5g. Theres a reason why the black rims are there.
It definitely gets riskier the bigger the tank.
My rubber lip wouldnt eat french cut green beans.
Sometimes it takes a few times before they will start eating something new.
Hi great video can I use any wood from the garden or do I need to buy specific drift wood? Thanks
Some wood can actually be poisonous so if you don't know for sure I'd stick to driftwood.
@@IansFishRoom Thankyou will do
Still have mine from back in the day and i used the heck out of it. It works like a charm.
I've always liked the design but wish it was just a little bigger.
Look into barclaya. Easy but rare red plant.
These are very common in my area.
Thanks for the tips Ian, you rock brother 🙏🏽✌🏽❤️👑
Glad it was helpful!
Exactly what I was looking for to see if it was doable with my old 10 gallon. Thanks for making this!
Glad it was helpful!
I recently started selling Guppy Grass to my fishstore. He can't manage to grow it and people keep buying it from it so I sell it to him whole sale. I offer fishstorekeeper a fair price so that we can all profit 👍🏽
Nice!
