    Im so glad you included instruction on how to dispose of unwanted plants. As someone you spent 7 hours yesterday, in the pouring rain, clearing invasive plants from our local waterways, i wish more people would think ahead and consider the risks.

      Thank you! It was always something that annoyed or scared me when people would tell me they threw it in their garden.
      There was a big push a few years ago called compost with care I believe that had posters in most aquarium shops.

    Definitely green and orange shrimp, skip the red shrimp this time. Matt, it's brilliant, both tanks. LOL! You know I always have so much to say. Don't apologize for the jellyfish tote lid, let me tell you, one of the best things I learned is tote lids rule. Perfect work surface for the average home scaper, ha! I love when the dogs are in on the videos too. I have a dog and 6 cats, lids on my tanks are a must. I envy you and others who do not need lids. Loved this build and can't wait until you and MD get busy on some tanks! Please do not ever get rid of The Pink Flamingo Cup Of Acclimation... It is AWESOME LOL! Finally... Ok, I am sold on the green rasboras (sp?). Yes. I am planning a big tank build, at least 50 to 75 gallons. I keep waffling between cichlids or nano. One idea is a community tank with neon tetras and now thinking rasboras as well. (I'll check your videos to make sure they live well together or not and look for the fish file.) The other a dwarf cichlids tank. I'm thinking my final decision is for another nano fish build. Another thing I learned is, I need curved tweezers. The most troubling issue I had was planting. Im like, how the heck domthey get these plants to STAY PUT?!? I've watched you and MD and made sure tompay attention, but jeeze, that was my biggest problem. Nothing would sit down in substrate the 1st time andit was plenty deep... So, I ended up mucking up my substrate on the 1st build and knocking my glue points to hell. Learning curve, no water next time, and root plants will go in before the water. I couldn't do that bc my plant order came in after my build. I feel confident that next build, I've got it, only because of you and MD.

    • @FishShopMatt
      @FishShopMatt  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Tote lids do definitely make life easier. It's definitely hard to choose between all the different species that are available now. That's why I end up with so many tanks.
      I certainly agree about curved tweezers they make life easier.

    Hey Matt. I believe that you hit on a fabulous idea with the 4 seasons. That would be a fantastic video series. And I don't know if you follow the Small Scape or not, but if you haven't seen her winter scape on a tank, then I highly recommend that you do. She had several ideas using certain sand to make it look like snow. It was a very pretty scape and watching it was soooo peaceful to me. I could've watched it for hours. Look her up. She has done some wonderful scapes, and you could possibly get some ideas. Her name is JoAnna and she does videos with her husband on his channel called Prime Time Aquatics, and his name is Jason.

    For the winter tank you could use stuff like ludwigia sp. White and anubias snowball...
    The only issue is these plant cam be incredibly difficult to keep.
    But you also could use some pinks... like hygrophila pink chai. It may be pink but its a much cooler pink :)
    Forground plants maybe crypt green gecko since its quite light in colour also :)

    We need two fifteen minute videos with each showing a tank and just the fish swimming. I think the green rasboras would be more entertaining but id watcj both to see.

    Matt, next time you try to cut a piece of wood down the middle, please use some circular saw or something. It looked very dangerous!
    The tanks really look very well together, nice to see the fish also mirror the colour themes.
    I'm working on something Avatar themed. One small tank houses my Bloody Mary's in a scape with lava stone and lava pebbles, a mix of green and red plants and red tinged buces. They're the Fire Nation. My Blue Dreams will be housed in a new tank I'm working on which has clear white sand in front, a sort of wall made of grey split and granite rocks. I want to add a background poster featuring Northern Lights since they're a Watertribe.
    For my dolmen aquascape with the ruby tetras I'm hoping to run into some Green Jades at Vivarium. They're earth benders of course. At fairs prices are usually a bit lower so I'd like to take advantage of that. Besides, I've had more success with shrimp from breeders than the ones I bought at Diebo. What I'm also working on is four large jars, they're nearly a gallon. These are these cheap large glass jars you can buy at Ikea for storing large amounts of whatever in your kitchen. They can be the four Airtemples for yellow or orange shrimp. Depends on what I'll see at Vivarium this year.

    The best - and easiest - way to take the plants out of their pots and the rockwool without damaging the roots is to do that submerged in water... take a few seconds as the rockwool expand, no roots broken, and no stress....

    Beautiful tanks, well done. My anubias has decided to make a flower, looks like a corncob at the moment. Supposed to be nana petit, the leaves are as big as my hand, and it's grown about 16 inches (41 centimeters?) to breach the top of the aquarium. I'm assuming it was mislabeled, or exposed to radiation? Like the super old movies where everything grew really big. Anyway, I'm very jealous of your stem plants, everyone says how easy they are to grow, but every time I plant them, they die. Yours are always so beautiful. But, at least I have this giant anubias of doom taking over my tank. Lol Give the puppers a big hug, they are both so adorable, and have an awesome week.

    • @FishShopMatt

    Future reference when using a saw to cut your wood get a more aggressive tooth on the saw it will take a lot less time
    Question:
    From an armchair fish keeper, I've always been told never to pop the bags as the compression of that pop vertebrates through the water and could injure the fish is this true

    • @FishShopMatt
      @FishShopMatt  หลายเดือนก่อน

      I tried a few different saws off of camera but because of the density of wood it really didn't work too well. I think it may have been the case I had one with huge teeth and the purple one with too small.
      Yeah I would agree with not popping the bags the shockwave, noise, pressure and a few other things could all harm your fish.
