Das ist echt schön, das gefällt mir. Nur das Holz hatte ich mal, es mulmt extrem stark :( Auch wenn kleine Welse drann nagen. Innerhalb von 3 Monaten musste ich es entfernen.
Es hat den ganzen Filter dicht gemacht.
Apologies but can't translate.
Amazingggg... Sir..
Thankyou so much appreciate it 🙂👍
Hiya mate ill be ordering my juwel 240 soon and ill be using your videos for help..last time i owned aquariums it was under gravel filters and gravel 30 years ago haha.. you dont happen to have a list of all what you used in the first half of the vid of all the substrate and nutrients you used and the amounts please 🙏thanks
Hi mark , what did you use between the lava soil and the planted substrate ? Not the flourish tabs by the way
I think it was some old substrate from another setup (mix of volcanic gravel and Seachem's Aquavitro Aquasolum). I'd recently stripped another scape.
@@GEORDIESCAPER cheers mark , just went with the lava substrate and aquavitro , love your scapes , keep it up 👍🏻👍🏻
Look forward to seeing how this grows in, are you keeping the fish south American themed too?
I am yes, fish I've always wanted. As soon as I know I get my hands on them I'll do a video.
Love it
Is this the standard light that come with tank m8 looks class
Thanks mate🙂It is yeah. I'm adding another light too. It's a light that's new to the UK market and I'll be doing an unboxing/overview real soon.
@@GEORDIESCAPER cool looking forward to it
I am thinking of starting with the Juwel Rio 240. Have had an aquarium decades ago. However, the only available place is behind the corner sofa (the short side) which looks like a good place to me. Problem is that it will be more or less in the middle of the room. therefore I would prefer an external filter and besides hoses etc. should be "limited" as much as possible. And what about the decoration? It has to be a kind of "see through". Do you havy any tips for me?
Do you mean it will be acting as a room divider, separating wall in a way, viewable from 3-4 sides?
@@GEORDIESCAPER yep, that's exactly what I mean.
@roadrunnerruud61 I'll have a think and get back to you after the weekend, probably best by email. Drop me an email next week sometime, and I'll help you out.

@@GEORDIESCAPER thanks a lot. Will come back to you next week!
Just got a 60 gallon long, gonna try to replicate this
Flattered you were inspired by this setup, means alot thank you.🙂👍
Found out about your channel today from the guys at East Lothian Aquatics near Edinburgh. Briliant videos, spent this eve watching. I am thinking of starting a 240L myself. What setup do you have for Rio is it the default? Interested in lights and filtration especially. I saw in one videos with a working setup you have the default filtration and another internal one on the other side. Lastly, I’m deciding between Fluval Roma, Juwel Rio and AquaOne OakStyle Urban Collection. Any advice? I would go for Juwel after seeing your videos. Thank you very much for the content, really nice
Hi there, yeah, I met Phil and his partner last year, great couple. We had a blast.
I would recommend watching my Juwel Rio playlist, and hopefully, this will help. I would favour the Juwel over the others you mentioned. These days I use nothing but external canister filters on the Juwel's. Oase Biomaster thermo 360's, awesome filters. I remove the juwel filter housing to make more room inside the tank (there's a video on how I do that too)
@@GEORDIESCAPER thank you for your answer. Yes, will definitely watch all Juwel videos and some others i found really informative for what i am aiming to do. It’s a pleasure to watch your videos. After I’ve seen some of them I actually decided on the Juwel Rio 240 which we ordered today. I will try your no co2 setup see how it goes. Thank you again and keep up the amazing work you do.
There is one thing I don t get. Juwel are using 6 mm glass even for the bottom on all aquariums. I just do not have the courage to buy a 240 l juwel, not to mention a 400 l one with a 6 mm bottom. This is crazy. And it s a shame because I like everything else about Juwel when comparing with other brands.
Because the silicone work is so thick and it's braced, I'm guessing that's how they get away with 6mm. I don't mind juwel aquariums but I'm still a big fan of low iron, minimal silicone, braceless aquariums.
