    Maybe use two tanks one with just Agar Agar in it and one with Bacteria AE in it and compare the difference? Might be interesting. Keep up the good work.

    Hi Mark! Amazing video, I’ve learned so much from you. Have you tried the one week cycling with UGF and Brightwell soil? I was taught this method by a shrimp shop owner and it worked for me. I was wondering what you thought about this method and if it’s viable in pushing more publicly

    I'm not sure if dissolved agar like that can be a 'media' to something grow on, I usually use a small amount of molasses to give food to starter bacteria, which pretty much same mechanism . But it gives me weird idea of using block of solid agar with extra nutrients in it haha.

    • @MarksShrimpTanks
      @MarksShrimpTanks  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Its not the media its the food source ...I think 😲

  • @wug18

    Great content as always, Just use caution as the glucose produced may cause Staphylococcus aureus spike in tank which will lead to biofilm bloom, carefull if you have any cuts etc.

    • @MarksShrimpTanks
      @MarksShrimpTanks  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I did but I didnt film it because the results were pretty rubbish, the tank that went green originall went all yellow so I tried double the amount of agar and nothing happened so I added 1 liter off amazonia to the tank and the walls went green again. It was a good test even if nothing came from it.

    • @XXXDeadhead

      Mark - algae created by lights, this creates a sugar for the biofilm, which the bacteria in the biofilm eat (algae to sugar) - so, promotion of the algae through lighting and addition of agar agar may be a solution? I need to look up polysaccharides

    Hay brother!! I've been very curious on chitin what's a good source of chitin. It the main product in benebachi breeding liquid they have some powder stuff they use in pharmaceuticals and beauty products but I think it artificially made and it's expensive. Any ideas you may have I'd love to hear it.
    Love these videos I tryed your lacto bacteria with brown rice I found black rice works too with molasses it just makes things really dark. But it's magic. Praising God for your awesome videos.

    • @MarksShrimpTanks
      @MarksShrimpTanks  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hello mate, I am still testing this, the walls did go very very green but that might have been the soil, It started to grown long and then it got string algae in it, so I did a so just a large water change and it all went yellow but it returned to the short form so a few days ago I dosed it again, and it looks like its starting to go green again but that could be my imagination. I do have another spare tank I could test this is so look out for it.
