      Happy to see these!

    • @garygray7519
      @garygray7519 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Just a thought but you could make topping pieces that will partially cap the easy planters to make caves/hiding spots for the fish when two or more easy planters are side by each

      oooh these are great! do you have plans to make sizes? one of those would take up most of my nano tank, would love to see a smaller version

    • @mercurym-7904
      @mercurym-7904 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I loved these planters for the first three months and then I noticed my plants starting to diminish. What could be the reason for this? 🥺
      I feed my plants plenty of nutrition. I wonder if it’s because the plants could be getting restricted while sitting in the planters. 🤷🏻‍♂️

  • @michellebaker559
    @michellebaker559 3 ปีที่แล้ว +37

    I am confused because I thought you were supposed to take the plants out of the wool container after you got them. That the plants didn't do as well if you kept them in the little container?

    • @ChinmayH
      @ChinmayH 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I was thinking exactly the same. This product looks good but how effective in long run. No response yet from aquarium co-op on this.

    • @Jfurg
      @Jfurg 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      He’s just showing you in the wool I think,like for me I would take the plant out full the little planter with aqua soil cap it with sand (or don’t cap it) and then put the plant in and a root tab (some don’t use root tabs with aqua soil but I do do), that would be the same thing and what I would do to help the plant better! Hope this helps!!

    @fauxfox7209 3 ปีที่แล้ว +24

    That's pretty cool, allows you to scape plants higher while creating more hiding spots and exploration.

    I was watching a co-op video you did in the fish room. You sayed something to the effect of "Oh I think I just showed something Randy doesn't want me to show". I watched it a couple of times and decided it was the planter. I have been waiting for them to be offered and just placed an order tonight. Thank you for supplying us with great products, need these for my African cichlid tank.

  • @madturtle8826
    @madturtle8826 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Cory, thank you. My brother is battling algae and is new to fish keeping. I suggested plants, but he didn’t want to deal with plants, so these are perfect for him. He watched this video and loves these so we’ll be ordering some planters, some plants, and some tabs to get them started. Your the man...

  • @shelleyjoslin8106
    @shelleyjoslin8106 3 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Omg I learned so much just from this short video!!! I'm not familiar with aquatic plants and have no idea how to keep them (especially with goldfish). I had no idea how to use or when to use root tabs. Thank you so much for this!

  • @renaeshropshire7535
    @renaeshropshire7535 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Thanks Cory! I'm so excited to finally get these! I just ordered 9 and I'm sure I will need more!

  • @kaitlyndavis2451
    @kaitlyndavis2451 3 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Been planning for a goldfish tank in the future, definitely going to have to get some of these so they dont uproot everything. My planted goldfish tank dreams are alive once again!

    • @Jfurg
      @Jfurg 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I have 2 60 gallon goldfish tanks and 1 55 gallon, both my 60s have 3 each and 2 in the 55. They have uprooted plants but it has been rarely. They don’t chew them, tear them up or anything. Now that might just be my 8 but that’s kinda weird if so lol. Just a thought incase you wanted to do it before having a bunch of these lol

  • @edyoung6573

    Getting a few right now! And some plants my Cichlids won't turn into a salad bar. AND of course a few more awesome sponge filters! Oh and some never clog air stones for the sponge filters. SHOPPING SPREE! (Don't tell my husband 🤫) I Love my LFS over 1000 miles away in Washington! ❤ Thank you Cory and the Coop gang!

    fantastic idea, for people who likes using sand as substrate, i think you can just bury these in the sand and still grow plants that doesn't like to be in sand.

    Didn’t know you could leave the plants in the brown mush stuff and the plastic container! I always thought it would be harmful for the water quality or pieces of the brown mush to get in the water and the fish accidentally eating it! This saves me a lot of time trying to get everything completely off the roots! 🙂👍🏻 thanks!

    @julianaquascaped 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Nice. This could be interesting to create some mounds in your substrate while saving yourself some substrate. You can set these down on a bare bottom and pour substrate around/over them. (obviously that would be for the non-epiphytes)

    I have a stupid question from someone just getting into plants. I have always removed the plastic and rock wool before I put the roots in my substrate. Is that not the best method for planting?
