You can buy Subwassetang here marksshrimptanks.ecwid.com/Subwassertang-Golfball-Size-8g-p91606620
Mark you don't ship this to Canada do you? I have to ask but I imagine Customs would not like it.

If you make it too long and it gets all knotted... would it be a Subwassertangle?
Best comment of the day :D
Lmao...indeed it would
LOL :)
I Red the title and was like WHAT hahaha and now I get what you was making hahaha that looks great you did a boss job 👏👏👏
Brilliant! My guppy fry will love this! Thank you for sharing a wonderful idea! New sub from Australia 🇦🇺❤️
Thank you for subscribing Chelle, what part of Australia are you from? I was raised near Perth.
I’m on central coast NSW. Right between Lake Macquarie & lake Munmorah. Best place on earth, don’t tell anyone tho!
Love these subwassertang ropes!! The rope is alot smaller than I thought it would be. Very cool and thanks for sharing! Gonna have to try this sometime.
Cheers Lucas , I will try and source some stainless steel wire and make some shapes :D
FINALLY I FOUND THIS VIDEO.. will make one for my shrimp tank
I had some old air stone tubing that worked well to attach the Subwassertang to. Thank you for sharing this idea.
Thats a really good idea!!!
I've just found this video, after always loving the look of your subwassertang wall, now I see how you've made it.
I'm making a video now on subwassertang with a variation on your suspended ropes.
I'll make sure to link back to you. Thanks for the inspiration :)
Sounds great!
@@MarksShrimpTanks how is 2020 treating you Mark?
That is a stonking idea thanks Mark 👍🏻👍🏻
Glad you like it
Wow i never thought this plant is as gorgeous as this
Subwassertang looks like seaweed i love it im gonna make subwassertang vines
Thanks for this video! I wanted something like this in my shrimp tank for moss but was using tubing. Needles to say it didn't work well. The rope is perfect and much easier to manage. I sowed some suction cups to it and it looks fantastic. Can't wait for the moss to grow in!
Very nice looking. It's like w saltwater kelp forest. I bet you could wrap some pennywart around it eventually too!
Thank you The Secret History Living in Your Aquarium
I think twisted rope might work too, open the twists and push through, close and move down do a bit more then wrap it loosly with thead.
In fly tieing it’s called a dubbing loop
I made one and added a second suction cup to the end . I have learnt so much from all your clips.
Thank you. Keep up ur good work.
Thank you Sabine :)
found it thanks mark
Great video, got Subwassertang a few days ago, will be making some ropes after it grows out some.
Good luck!
This is awesome! I have a large handful of extra susswassertang and now I know what to do with it!
Glad it was helpful!
@@MarksShrimpTanks Thanks Mark! Just made 3x vines last night and they look great! I ended up having to pass back over them one more time with the thread because the pieces would end up working their way out once I submerged.
Fantastic idea thank you
Glad you liked it!
I just wish my subwassertang would thrive like yours. But those ropes are a really cool way of using it.
Suspended subwassertang would be cool I think ,its weird how you cant get it to grow ..
Marks Shrimp Tanks it doesn't die but it doesn't thrive either. But I don't have it in shrimp tanks... So it's lower tds where it grows.
shrimp cocain got it thanks mark lol
Brilliant! I am definitely going to try this
Looks like a great idea for tying up java moss, too! Thanks!
Yes it is ,I did one about a month ago as a test and its growing nicely :)
This is awesome!! thank you
if you turn it over around 1/2 way/ a little earlier it wont have a daringly bit you've already done dragging on your hand, a little less cumbersome and possibly less stress on plant :)
Its not easy filming with a tripod and camera where your face is 🤣
Just made 2 of these. Just waiting for my other pieces to grow so i can make more and create a rope wall 😊
Sounds great!
Cool tip 👍
I love this idea! I have a planted tank but never bought this stuff cuz I dont want floaters that block my light. This is a great idea! But you could also wrap a piece of driftwood with this stuff and stick in your substrate? I did that with java moss for a “tower” for my shrimp.
Thank you so much for the tutorial! I'll definitely have to look for your Facebook and your Instagram because I don't see a link here thank you so much I can't believe how fast your sub grows!!!! ❤️🐟

Thank you mark you're the best
I am so glad I found your chanel you keep bringing my shrimp keeping skills and addiction to a new level with each video!
I just ask about this in another videos comments (I think yesterday) lol
Yes, I want to echo that. So glad to finally see exactly how the ropes are made. I'm going to hang them on my walls and flood the house.
LOL Travis !!
You are more than welcome my friend :)
Very nice tip! By the way, its German "Süßwassertang" in more common English spelling "Suesswassertang". The term was meant to describe the sea water macroalgae-like apperance while being able to grow in fresh water (German Süßwasser).
well only like 2 more months till spring and then i'll grab some off you,sucks being in canada 2 fricken cold for living things
Looks like a miniature Kelp forest.
very helpful
Would love a video on how to get rid of limped snails
as in limpet snails ? yo can use NoPlanaria but you must remove as much of the snails as posible by hand first or you will have problems.
Ok, I will try that. Thanks
mark, ive overdosed no planaria for weeks and still have limpets. how do you do it?
I'm gonna do this but wrap the 'tang around a chopstick and just stick it in the substrate. Hope you're doing well, Mark, miss your streams/vids, sir.
thanks for sharing, I'll devenetly will try this with my supwassertang
enjoy your weekend
Have a great weekend :)
Great video, easy to follow, like your technique... thank you for sharing. Hope you make more of these. Thumbs up!
Thank you fishroom bum :)
Thank you for this video I wanted know how you made the rope great video
You are very welcome Terri Rego :)
Excellent video! They look really cool once they have grown out!
Yeah they do dont they ,they look way better than I thought they would ,very happy with them :)
Those are really, really cool - and that was a great instructional video! Wish my water wasn't so darn hard :(
Thank You Allison .
Hi. I love how all your tanks are looking. I just found your channel.
Do you inject any co2 into your tanks?
Definitely going to do this
I love that idea!
Ohhhh i don´t believe it hahah Its very easy. Thanks Marks :)
Cheers Dacan :)
great idea love it might have try it out myself
Thank you :)
Thank you for the interesting idea I liked to try to do the same .You have an interesting channel .Greetings from Russia.
Thank you very much Dmitri for the awesome comment, have a great day !!
good vid bud
Cheers Chris :)
Absolutely awesome. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Great idea thanks for sharing
Nicely done, great idea
Cheers Joseph .
Top stuff Mark! Thanks for the tutorial!
Thank you Edwards :)
Great idea! Thanks for sharing it.
You are welcome!
Great tip, thanks.
Just made two of these with my son last night. Easy and fun project.
Question: do you dose your tanks with CO2 or do you have a CO2 injector?
I dont ,I did try it for a month and the subwassertang started to brown so I stopped using it ,since then its returned to normal again :)
Oh! Great video! I like this idea, thanks for sharing it my friend! :)
Thank you Carlos ,how are you doing ?
I'm very happy my friend! Last weeks were terrible for my hobby, a lot of work. Now I've more free time (just finished another university career) and I can watch all your videos easily for keep getting inspired and raising thumbs! Hahaha
How are you Mark? You are making great things for the shrimp and tank hobbies so you must be Happy! :)
makes me want mine more now :)
I still havnt heard of anyone in the US getting thier subwassertang yet ..I will stop selling to the US until I know customs are not stopping it.
Done ✅👍😃
kind of like tying a big fly!
yeah and I am rubbish at both lol
Lol i also have trouble tying small strings
Excelent idea !!
These turned out really good ,you can see them in my top tank now they have bulked out :)
Hi!! it looks cool!!
Thank you Artoo.
Im gonna have 2 suction cups with some airline tubing to keep thus stuff hung
Hi do you inject co2 into your tank please?
I keep watching this plant in your tank and i still can't believe we don't have it in Europe.
I am in Europe :)
Which country?
I live in Norway and I have sold the stuff everywhere in the world now.
email me at markpeggie@hotmail.com if you are interested
I did a video about it a while ago you might have missed Subwassertang 4 Sale ►goo.gl/cYri3a
we have it to in holland
Great video😊👌
Thank you :)
Hello mark i watched u for many years i am new into this hobby i never kept any moss plants what kind of moss u prefer most for shrimp and fish tanks
Just normal java moss.
@@MarksShrimpTanks i see alot of these u.g.f in ur tanks do u sell these u.g.f to newyork
I mainly just have songe filters now.
Do you ship this to the USA i would love to buy some
Instead of hanging the rope from a suction cup, I like to make "moss" balls with a piece of styrofoam at their core, so that they float, so the rope (in your case, string of plants in my case) is weighed down on one end and floating at the other. Usually I just attach the floating balls to a weight directly, to have "magical" floating moss balls floating at different heights in the water, like floating islands
Styrofoam is toxic... I wouldn't use it in your aquarium
You could useyoyo loaches mine dont bother the shrimp and are voracious on snails and worms
I really love the subwassertang ropes! They are beautiful. The ones in your tank there remind me of a kelp forest! Which I always thought were so beautiful. I'd love to have these ropes. I have a well, and my water is high Ph, of usually 8.4. I think it is probably hard too. Would the subwassertang live and thrive in those conditions? Thanks for the video. No problem seeing what your hands were doing at all. Subscribed. :)
love... shared:)
Thank you Sabine :)
Good one! I'm going to give this a try.
My question is do the shrimp use them as an escape line by climbing up the ropes?
Ive never seen them do it but they cant go anywhere anyway its attached to the spray bar in the tank .
Marks Shrimp Tanks thanks!
You and a few others have got me back into aquatics over this winter and I'm really enjoying my new shrimp tank (all 7 are still alive after 3weeks and getting ready for a few more )!
What do you use for deworming? I tend to use flubenol 5% but that does not always do the job.
I dont use anything at all. in all my years keeping shrimp I have used fenbendazol once for planaria.
Hi Mark can you please add a link to the snail and worm treatment your using please, handy to no what one to get that won't affect the shrimp, nice blog to 👍
trickytricky100 I would like to know this as well
Tried a serch for that Mark, Sybrand Scheveers
nothing coming up for snail and worm treatment? ??
NoPlanaria works but you have to remove as much of the snails as possible by hand first ,because if you dont they will die and pollute your tank ..which might kill your shrimp.
????? That's another blog we all need to see how? so we can learn by it, not shor what you mean, and if it's to do with shrimp you need to do another blog for tomorrow on this, asap
😆
Ive literally just done it ,so it might be months again until I do it again, be patient lol
i have been playing with some of my supwassertang inspired by you, I will tage you in the pictures on insta
awesome would love to see that :)
Hi sir will that dewormer kill those snails and is it shrimp safe? Watched that one segment 10 times and still can’t find it if you have a link to it would be wonderful thank you. Ps your camera work is great
Hello Gamer, if you are talking about no planaria you can get it in a lot of shrimp keeping shops online or an alternative, and yes its shrimp safe but not snail safe.
That golden pothus is beautiful and looks so healthy, great video, thx for sharing. how did you make your water bar?
Thank you Amy :)
Can I use avocado leaves in my shrimp tank? Just wondering.
I know they are deadly poisonous to alot of animals so I wouldn't risk it if I were you ,see here for more information www.aspca.org/pet-care/animal-poison-control/toxic-and-non-toxic-plants/avocado
Thank you Mark
Marks Shrimp Tanks golden pothos is also toxic, I guess someone tried it out one day and discovered it was safe for aquarium use because it's commonly used despite its toxicity. Only one way to find out, experiment! Lol
wrough wrough whrougj thats what my dog tolded me to write 😂
So i can use nylon para cord
Yes this is what I have used before
Will java fern work as well?
it would look cool
Just an idea, and I don't know if it will work. But what if you use a twisted rope, instead of a breaded one? Then you can untiwist it a bit, put the tang in, and gently let it twist again so it stays put. I don't know if it will be to tight for the plant, but it would be easyer
No reason why you couldnt do that :)
Marks Shrimp Tanks
Okay 🙂
I really want to fiend some sabwassotang here in Denmark
i attached my Subwassertang to spiderwood using this method, but they are Dying fast, i have lots of CO2, light and added a high Scape complete dosage, any advice you can give as to a possible cause? the temperature is 26 degrees in the tank with out a heater.
Hello Dev, co2 melted my plants when I tried it and all my tanks where the subwassertang does well is soft water with a low ph :)
@@MarksShrimpTanks much appreciated
#mark can i put susswasertan in a moss holder
You can but it will grow better being tied to the outside of it.
@@MarksShrimpTanks i never knewv that thanks ..... the truth is because of u i am getting into shrimps to bad u could not sell me your line): here in newyork city
Hello Mark.... I'm new to your channel and just found this video. I found it extremely cool. I do have a question though.... Are those round "bushes" in the tank where you placed the ropes. the same plant that you used in the video? I'm not going to try and type it, let alone pronounce it.... LOL... If not, what are they?
Thanks in advance for your time....
Yes its the same plant :)
Thank You!!! They look Gorgeous.
How do you get rid of snails without hurting the shrimp?
The absolute best way is to feed a spot in the tank and remove them by hand.
Do you use c02? Can you make a list of plants that dosen't need c02
No i dont use any Co2 ,The plants I have are all low light and easy to grow ,java ferns ,java moss,weeping moss,anubias,hygro sunset,subwassertang . and the obligatory duckweed ..
Don't throw the thread on the floor directly, put it into a bowl on the floor, that way it both stays in place even though it rotates AND it doesn't get dirty as a bonus
hello Agnes thank you for the tip. 👍
@@MarksShrimpTanks my pleasure! 😊
Hey mark what are you using thats like no planaria
Eradica I think its called ,the main ingredient is fenbendazole which is whats in NoPlanaria.
What was the brand of it, cant find Noplanaria near me and not sure where to get fenbendazole
I used Safeguard (dewormer for dogs). Others have used Panacur liquid form. The one I bought is in powder form. It's main ingredient is fenbendazole. I used a pinch and ground it in water more as it doesn't dissolve properly. I dosed my 10g shrimp tank to kill hydra and planaria. It's been a week and haven't seen any signs of hydra nor planaria. Shrimp and snails are ok.
Here's the article about it. All credit goes to the poster. I hope posting link here is fine? Iwww.aquaticplantcentral.com/forumapc/library/52784-planaria-hydra-elimination-shrimp-tanks.html
I didn't do water change until 3 days after I dosed my tank. No death that I know of except hydra and planaria. :D
Hello Mark, do you use fertilizer in your tanks or Co2?
No nothing at all now, the only ferts will be from what comes out of the soil :)
how long many hours do you keep the light on for the shrimps tank. Thanks
12 hours :)
I have some questions, would his work with java moss ( I'm assuming yes) and are the reptile bendy branches aquarium safe. I want to make a design a vine like that have at Petco and I don't want too kill my fish.
To be honest my friend I dont know if they are shrimp safe.
Do you add fertilizers for this plant?
not anymore
Safe to use wool yarn?
No dont use wool it eventually rots and makes a mess of the tank ...any nylon thread will do :)
I can't wait to try this. I just got some for my local fish friend on marketplace.
How fast growing is subwassertang
slow slow, like an inch a month
HI Mark
Can I ask mark is there a product for us shrimp keepers/Breader, when we buy moss or plants, we can dip to kill any pests on the plants/moss so as not to infect our tanks, disease/or snails worms ??
that won't effect our shrimp
Thanks Richard
not that I know of .
I part bleach 19 part water
What do you tie the subwassertang to to make those balls?
Wood works best :)
Marks Shrimp Tanks gotcha. did you have to trim it to keep the ball shape?
Will it work with other mosses
Oh yes for sure.
where do you order the subwaseertang
I grow it ,search for subwassertang for sale :)
