“Leave it alone” is actually a GREAT tip. Thanks for the other tips too. Will try floating my stem plants for propagating them.
How am I just discovering this channel?!
Idk man it’s so epic !!!!
Same
Hi Bob
You’ve lived a sad life bob
Lmao
Super helpful tips, thank you Nick.
Tip 10, I find that when a tank matures, in a low-tech tank, plants that didn't work in the beginning may work now. Great video! Can't wait to see the next Studio update👍
Hey man, just wanna say your videos have helped me so much, you have some great content Im really enjoying it and hope you keep it up
These were great! Thanks!
Excellant video, thank you.
Thanks for the tip gonna try it with my new plants❤
New here in the fishkeeping community btw😁
Super helpful tips, thank you! :D
Thanks for watching Laura
Nice,Informative video
From the philippines🐟🐟🐟
Nice video, wished seen this earlier :) But there is never a stop for learning i guess ! I liked the tip of trying different and leaving it alone....
Hi there, just discovered this channel, as a fellow youtuber this is great to see such good advice on planted aquariums. I too believe that plants need to be planted and left alone.
Very good tips!
Got some expensive potted plants from Poland and planting them today!
You are so under rated. You are really helpful and you know a lot of stuff. Keep up the good work👍
He really is!
Thanks Matt!!
Love the tip on floating! I’ve tried planting some wisteria before with no roots yet established and rot is exactly what I got!
So true
I just found muly answer thank u!
Very informative video. Hello from Algeria 👍
Helllooooo
I love your videos
Super easy plants are the best for low tech. Dwarf Sagitaria, anubius, amazon swords, java fern and moss, hygrophila, and most valisenaria. All of these plants look great and require very little to grow aside from planting them properly and a good substrate. My tank has all of these plants and they all do great, no fertilizers or root tabs. All I did was cap dirt under gravel and sand.
What are the best fish for cleaning the glass
What are some fast growing plants i can grow with liquid fertilizer (No root tabs, No CO2) ?
Any quick tips for keeping wisteria??
One of the ones I got isn’t aquatic but it’s growing good roots in the substrate
AWESOME VIDEO. I CAN RELATE ABOUT MESSING WITH THINGS. THATS WHY I DID NOT CONSIDER PLANTS YET, BECAUSE I KNOW THAT IT WILL ADD EXTRA HEADACHE. IS THAT POSSIBLE TO ASK YOU A FEW QUESTIONS ABOUT MY TANK? I REALLY DONT WONNA WASTE YOUR TIME. THANKS AGAIN
Knowing the PH of a fish tank is very important. For instance the water in Los Angeles is ph. 7 or 8 straight from the tap. There are a lot of beautiful aquarium plants that like a soft slightly acid water. There are conditioners you can put in your tap water that do not shock new plants you want to put in your aquarium. All plants go through a shock when they transplanted. Some times growing them in small clay pots and just moving the pots around is better.
Good job.
Many many thanks

My pleasure
Haven't commented on your channel in a while!
Mez!!
What do you think about doing a planted aquarium with a undergravel filter?I have a cycled cichlid 55,with undergravel and powerheads.
Of course the cichlids are going to be moved,a planted community tank with ug filter is what I'm wanting to do.
Hello I have a question which i hope you can answer. i have a planted aquarium which I'm hoping will thrive and grow well. However some of my fish are eating the plants how can i stop or reduce this? thanks!
Unrelated but i'm watchong this in 1080 and your skin is flawless! Please do a skincare routine video
Can you please make a video on how you would quarantine your store bought plants please?
Do you disinfect your plants ?
Please mate...i have really been pondering on this for a long time now. And no one seems to have addressed this issue at all. There is one video that suggests hydrogen peroxide dip but the last time i went down that route, i lost most of my plants...except the buceps and anubias and some staurogynes
What plants grow in quartz gravel ?
Hey nick would you ever consider getting a “My Aquarium Box”? I’ve heard of them but don’t know if It would be worth it. If anyone here in the comments has ever gotten one of these, please feel free to chime in.
I like aquarium plants so much 😍😍😍😍😍
Me too! They are just so amazing!
Hahaha
When are you going to do the how to breed dwarf Neon Rainbow fish series? Ps great video
Soon enough. Gotta finish my fish room first!!
I just got my first plants in and as soon as I put them in the tank my fish decided they were food. So what I did was place a glass flower vase upside down over the plants so the fish can't mess with it while it's getting established putting out more roots. While it looks kinda funny now I plan to remove it after I see new leaves and stems starting to grow.
Hey I just bought new plants but I left the rock wool and planted them into my gravel will they do fine?
You should remove the rock wool, so the roots can get established in the substrate
I am not a begginer fish keeper I actually have a marble and a koi angelfish still don't know if it is a pair since juveniles
I read a lot about plants dying before buying them, but that hasn't been the case for me at all (2 weeks so far).
But they were expensive and now I have a small snail infestation because of them.
Same with me
@@Aquafinity I've also been able to root them and make more. Unlike normal plants, they don't dry out so they don't die.
@@Yonatan24 That’s right! Aquarium plants are really interesting actually.
Thx so much. I'll stop massing with plants with not built roots. I promise)
I have a question for anyone who knows the answer to it I have a planted aquarium and I noticed that it looked like sludge was coming out of my filter then I opened it up and it basically had a layer of slimy dirt/mud covering it my substrate is gravel so I know the filter didn’t suck it in and I can’t think of anything else that could’ve caused that does anyone have an idea of what it might be and if so how to stop it from happening again
Do you so you mean dirty things are coming from your filter when you lift the cartridge?
Great video! 😎
My local plant shop has a massive supply and selection of plants. The reason I don't buy them though, is because they have pest snails.
(1🐌 = 1,000🐌
they're asexual)
Some of my tanks I don't mind snails, but most of them I do.
Do you know how to quarantine plants for snails and/or everything else that might be harmful or evasive?
Might not help much, but you can buy tissue culture plants. these won’t have snails. otherwise you could try manually removing snails and any eggs before adding plants
Not really a tip, but im getting a tank next year in the future. But too save money i've purchased some plants now and growing them out in plastic tubs emersed. It'll melt back when i eventually put them in the tank. But im hoping that the £50 worth of plants i've purhcased now, will eventually turn into alot more plants for the future saving me alot of money.
Never experienced the melting thing hm
My plants got lots of black algae, and still looking for a way to get rid of them 🤔
Manually removing them is probably the best, or you could try just cutting off only the leaves that have the BBA
0:58 You forgot to add the link
Just added thank you!!
KeepingFishSimple yw!
Are you selling plants for a newbie
I got too many in a 10 gallon
I got about 35 - 40 plants for $50, I got 10 bunches for $5 each and got 5 different types of plants
Where at?
I would buy fish from ur store but 1 dollar about 180 ruppees so expensive for me
Nice haircut
Oh no :/ just bought so much dwarf hair grass.
Get some CO2
Good to know. Thanks!
Um, dwarf hair grass is easy to grow.
