Thanks For Watching This AQUAPROS Production Guys!!! Don't Forget To 👍 The Video And Subscribe!
Im glad you never dismantled this tank. I remember being amazed by this years ago. Im glad its still going strong.
Thanks! Ya it might be one of the longest running ones!
I've always loved this tank. And yeah, the struggle is real, something always pops up in one tank or another just when you think you have everything dialed in perfectly.
Awe...those poor rice fish, minding their own business when the big human hand swoops into their world...oopsie, sorry sorry, didn't mean to...awe geeze.
👍❤️👍
I love the tank you built. It is amazing how you got the trees to look. Cyano-bac can't grow when hydrogen peroxide 3% is squirted onto it. It kills it even within tightly woven plants. Literally, it fell off the leaves of my plants when I had a deadly bloom of it in my tank. Best of all, it doesn't hurt anything in the tank and help oxigenate the water. I know it worked in mine, at least. I just used a baister and squirted it onto the cyano under the water for a few days of treatments and no more cyano. I have also kept algae and cyano off with more air stones and using Excel once in a while. I grow biofilm in my tanks for my shrimp so whatever algae is there the shrimp also go after. I just wanted to impart some knowledge from one aquarium keeper to another. Take Care and Stay Safe.
Really like your style.Thank you.
I know a method of wrapping up a python cord so that it doesn’t get the twisty loops in it but I tried for like 15 minutes to describe it in here and couldn’t muster up a description that makes sense. The gist is that you do one loop overhand and then you do a finger twist on the bottom to do an underhand loop and then you rinse and repeat. Sorry if this doesn’t make sense it’s just kind of a tactile process, the hose will just kind of naturally want to do it
3 questions: What size is this tank? What filtration are you using? How do you attach the Monte Carlo to the wood? It’s a really beautiful tank.
Wondering if anyone knows anything about this; I have just planted a whole new aquarium with driftwood and it has been about a week since I put everything in water and the wood has started to grow a white fuzzy looking algae on it, should I be worried?
Mike: I beg to differ. Shawshank Redemption is the Greatest movie of all time. No argument, it is!
😉🙃
Have you tried adding some Amano shrimp to the tank? American Flag fish also seem to help with that type of algae, but they might be bigger than you want. I use them in my Java moss filled tank for that, since Java moss is impossible to clean algae off of.
Ya theres def some other stuff I could have tried, just diddnt wanna keep adding more 🤷♂️
My cherry shrimp do a fantastic job with the fish poop making it disappear. They will eat the hell out of cyanobacteria also. To keep my broad leaf plants and glass clean of algae i rock out with bristlenose plecos. Only issue i have meow is hair algae. As of right now i come in every couple of weeks and haul it out. If I was smart I would either turn down the intensity of the lights or run them less than 12 hours or both haha. I dont mind digging it out every couple of weeks it gives me something to do with my tanks
First, i am no expert. How about ditching the potato vine. Is it feeding off of the tuber and not removing nitrites from the water? Also, does the carpeting plant keep you from vacuuming up fish poop, and can that be partly to blame?
I think half the fun is going through there & tidying up things once or twice a year - if something's off.
I'll let the weeds dry out & then toss them into my hot compost to break down without throwing off more roots or babies.
Strange...I always thought cyanobacteria was gram positive because I've treated it successfully with erythromycin before. But, a search says it's indeed gram negative (although some stuff out there that's waaaay over my head seems to suggest it has properties of both gram negative and gram positive). Anecdotally, though, I can say erythromycin worked very quickly for me for BGA outbreaks on three separate occasions, so, make of that what you will! Maybe it was the power of positive thinking.
As someone who's done the whole japanese green water, algae blob method of breeding medaka, you really don't want to remove/ muck around in the algae. That's where the fry are hiding and grazing on micro crustaceans. 😱😅✌️
just a not -- my favorite way to deal with Algea and other such things is shrimp. They are so incredibly good at eating everything like that. Mind you - you don't need to try and keep them in order to get rid of algae (as he showed here); but I love them.
That plant might be crypt parva if it travels like dwarf sag.
It's Hubert from massachusetts! My fish love your food and my gf loves the shrimp sticker!....
Heck ya Hubert!!!!! 🤠🤙🤙
Hey Mike, have you seen the latest API commercial? Swear I had to do a double take cuz the dude looked so much like you at first glance. 😅
The potato is causing a problem imo. Bioexit blue works well against cyano.
Jurassic Park IS the best movie of all time and you got 65,000,000 points for that clip 🤣
Hahahha glad ya liked it!
The potatoe is made of starch. There's your overfeeding.
This is where I think purigen would help remove the nitrogenous compounds and stop them releasing too many nutrients
Def worth a try! 🫡
Looking at the size of that tank and the abundance of foliage and how few fish are in there, I don't doubt that you're not overfeeding. But seeing how well those plants are doing and you still have algae issues, I would bet alit of money that you're using alot of ferts... ferts imbalance the system. You're better off adding fish and food and cutting out the ferts and allowing nature to find balance... I would look at how many hours the lights are up (and the intensity of these lights too). Adding medications regularly to quarantined fish in a system with static parameters just can't be good.
0 ferts!!!!! 🤷♂️
Monte Carlo looks realy great in Tanks . But in my Tanks it does not grow . Don't know what it is !
CO2? Only way it does anything for me!
i mean a group of Florida flag fish would clean it up real quick, but that wouldn't solve the problem
