    I wanted to learn how to set up a tank like that. Thanks for this video.

    Love the setups! I can definitely relate to the nerdiness of the hobby. Sometimes I get a new medaka or something similar and rave about it, and my friends are like, "That's a plain-looking fish..." 😂
    A couple of tips:
    - The bags you used for pouring water looked like trash bags-those might not be safe for fish, especially if they have any fragrance. Regular food-safe ziplock bags would be a better option.
    - The round tank looks cool, but it’s generally not ideal for fish because the distorted glass can affect their eyesight. It might be better suited for blind fish.
    Good luck!🫶

      Thanks! The bag wasn’t scented but agree definitely would want to avoid any scented trash bags :)

    I especially like the larger tank. My dad always loved having fish, and the last tank he had was just huge (100 gal., I think). It had a couple of rather large goldfish in there, and he would actually feed them romaine lettuce. He made a weighted clip that would hold the lettuce and keep it in place while they fed and a hook to retrieve it when they were finished. When it was feeding time and they saw him prepping the clip, they would get all excited...it was really cool

      Thanks, luckily I live nowhere near the fires but it’s sad to see so many who are not so lucky.

    Very cool
    Where do you purchase your plants? I have sone from the pet store but they are questionable quality and expensive. I have a 30 gallon tank with 6 tetra’s and 2 albino catfish, so I can add more to it

      Thanks! I actually buy most of my plants from Etsy. I've had good luck purchasing from AquariumPlantCenter and AquaticMotiv on Etsy.

    The tanks are beautiful!! Do you have a heater in the tank for your betta? Or some method of keeping the water warmer?

    • @elenamakes
      @elenamakes  วันที่ผ่านมา

      Thanks and yep! I forgot to mention it but if you look closely you can see a black cord going into the bowl that connects to a small heater.

    Looks great! Where did you get that piece of furniture they’re on?

      Thanks! It’s a coffee table I got off Craigslist and I modified to make it a stand, so unfortunately it’s not something you can buy as is.

    I am proud of you for being vulnerable and showing us another interesting side of your life. You can make another channel just for planted aquariums! Great job

    • @elenamakes
      @elenamakes  วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Haha thanks! I should probably focus on just on topic for the channel but it’s more fun to talk about a diverse set of stuff.

    The work to produce these tanks is exhausting but worth it. Careful with the sore throat. We had a case of flu that lasted almost four weeks. The results you achieved are excellent!

      Thanks! Luckily the sore throat didn't turn into anything too bad and went away.
