@@hugogarcia51894 If water is cloudy with no fish in it then it’s most likely the substrate or ornaments you put in it. And a tank being cloudy sometimes for a few weeks is normal and actually good. You sound like maybe you are newer to fish keeping? If so I would suggest reading up a lot on the subject. Lots of people get a tank throw in sand decorations and some fish and think that’s that.

It seems intimidating at first when you are new but once you figure it out it’s easy and makes sense. Best thing to do when new is set up tank with all you want in it minus fish. Then do a fish-less cycle. I do a half fish-less cycle my own kind of formula. I start the cycle without fish running the tank for a couple weeks with some plants for some organic load and then add a lil fish food let it sit running, then when I see the cycle has started I add a bunch of safe start plus bacteria into filter into tank and area where bio media is. Then wait a few more days, test again see water quality is pretty good. Then add in 1 or 2 very small hardy fish. I do this in what could be considered mid cycle but tolerable for the fish. And bang in a few days with fish peeing and pooping as well... water is super clear and tests perfectly. I then add the fish I want once a week. One week I will maybe add a couple cory’s or maybe molly. Then the next week I will add in maybe a few more etc. This is my process simplified into a few sentences. The way I do it cuts a true cycle time in half. And been doing it for 20 years and all my tanks crystal clear and don’t lose fish unless it’s the fish not their environment. It’s VERY rare I lose a fish.
I have two Flexes, a 9 gallon and a 15 gallon, both of which are black. I have a black Betta who was being bullied by a couple of the larger fish in his previous tank, so I moved him into the 9 gallon Flex, but trying to find him in there can take a while because everything’s black. I’m thinking about getting a white Flex. One caution with Bettas, they’re jumpers. The very first Betta I had as a 10 year old jumped out of the tank, which I cringe about to this day, 55 years later. I make sure I have something to cover the feeding port so I don’t have a repeat. And in this wonderful age of technology and TH-cam, the amount of information you can find regarding just about any subject is fabulous. Thanks for the review, those are beautiful tanks.
Thank you! I actually have a company I use that I’ve made a few videos for that make Fluval flex modifications like food hole covers, feeding rings, finer screens for the filter ports so baby fish and shrimp don’t get sucked in. It’s called lid propz. You can find the videos of his products by searching that, or Fluval flex mods and looking for my 3 videos.
got one from my kids this christmas but so far so good no problems so far ! great nano, little pricey but nice. wish had little more room in filter area,
Your decoration is amazing i have the Fluval flex 57 liters i want to do the same like yours 😢 do you have any tutorial how you did it? what plant's, stones you used? do you used substrate?
Yes I do! I actually have multiple videos on setting these tanks up multiple ways. I’ve changed the scapes a few times. Just go to my videos and source this video in my list of videos, the setup videos for both tanks are very close in time to that video. Then there’s a few more recent videos after I moved I had to redo them so I did an even more in depth scape in both.
glad to see yer doin well, condolences again on yer Gramma, been mulling over getting dragon puffer and it brought me to you, lookin forward to see what you do movin forward. Funny I've watched Palmer Aquatics before and that vid where he was comin to help out he looked like a lifesize cardboard cutout at first your camera is so clear! Glad you found great support, I'm new sub to you, good luck in your future endeavors and hoping for the best!
Update on this tank? Did it ever leak? Still have it? How much space does the filter chamber take up? Looking to upgrade from a 6 gallon cube with 12 in lengths all around.
It never did leak. The rear area does take up roughly 2 gallons of area id say. I ran them for quite a long time. Even through a move. Ran multiple aquascapes and design plans through it. Also helped in developing ideas for the 3D printed accessories I have videos for. I no longer have them but I do have a recent update that the people I sold the tanks to still are using them without having to reseal them. So when properly cared for, you should be great. Although I’d suggest the larger 15 gallon after my experience just to add more space to play with.
Nice video! I've been thinking about getting this tank for my betta since the size is bigger and the lighting and filter is better. My current tank uses the old light bulb that gives off warm light which looks nice but it doesn't bring out the colors good in my fish and it also isn't the best for growing plants, but this tank looks like it would do the trick and fix what I've been missing in my 5 gallon.
I love my 15 Gallon! The nice thing about it you can do modifications on it some folks take out the back compartment area. Just upgrading the pump here soon. Good tank overall.
I have the 9 gallon as well and I'm surprised your fish don't have problems with the flow. I have a group of boraras Brigittae and it is way too strong for them. I'm hoing to buy the Eheim Compacton 300 so I can dial down the flow. That's what I really miss with the Fluval stock pump, that you can't regulate the flow. Nice tanks by the way!🐠👍 Gerda
I got lucky with otocinclus, amano shrimp, nerite snails, rams horn snails, and occasionally cherry shrimp. That being said……it doesn’t mean your betta won’t kill any of those. Some bettas can be super mean.
does the salvinia struggle with the currents from the filter sprayers? Other enthusiasts say a corral is necessary with this style of filtration, just curious what your experience has been.
Should there be water in the 3 sections in the back of the tank where the pump is located? The pump doesn’t appear to have a strong stream like when I first set it up. Should it be taken apart and cleaned?
Yes I would take it apart and clean out your sponge in aquarium water from that tank. I just suck it out into a bucket and squeeze my sponge out into that bucket until the sponge is clean.
Great question! I can’t tell if it’s algae for sure as it stays dark back there. But some mulm definitely builds up. Start with bottle cleaning brushes that I buy from Amazon in the first chamber. Then I syphon out all the stuff that settles. Then I clean the sponge. The filter/heater side doesn’t seem to get any buildup in it. I assume anything that gets in there just gets sucked up and spit out the spray bar. Then I syphon the rest of my water change as I clean the tank.
Every tank gets brown algae. Even these tanks have some you just don’t see it cuz I keep the glass clean. I keep snails and shrimp so they may help it appear clean, but there’s brown algae for sure.
Hey mate, do your tanks have a buzzing noise coming from the filter? I picked up one of these tanks about 7 weeks ago, and for the first 2 weeks or so it was dead silent, now there's a buzzing/humming noise that's fairlyish loud. It's definitely not an issue with wiring or the actual filter touching the glass, the filter is resting on its rubber pads and I've also cleaned the tank and filtration set up. Any advice?
Yes, if you look up my videos from LidPropz, he offers spray bars for the flex the one you want to help with your betta is the low flow bar. I use it with my bettas and the flow is perfect. Then, if you’re using a planted substrate, the plants will add him a cover from the current if he chooses, as well as diverting current as well.
I don’t think I would say it’s capable of high tech. I did run diy co2 tho with amazing results. If I was to add pressurized co2, I think I would put a different light on top or maybe even add a second fluval flex light and velcro it to the inside of the lid
Mine are silent. I’ve heard others that say theirs have been noisy but I don’t have the same experience. I often have to check if the pumps working they’re so quiet in my experience
IKEA solid wood end tables I did glue all the screws and such too just for added rigidity. Although me and my wife sat on it for a combined weight of around 300 lbs and it didn’t budge so I presumed they were safe enough for 9 gallons of water.
Look up my videos on the Aquario Neo Co2 kit. It’s a super simple co2 kit that isn’t as powerful as pressurized co2, but it adds a just enough co2 to help plants grow that much better. Best part is it’s cheap too.
@@AquatikGuru my house stays pretty consistent too. Just worry about fluctuations at night. I was looking at the fluval one but the smallest they make is 50w which is for the 15g or larger. I also read a lot of people saying the fluval heater randomly cracking. My LFS said they can’t even get the fluval heaters anymore 🤷♂️
do you have a problem with your betta seeing himself with these tanks? I have one and my little guy wont stop chasing the glass im sure he sees himself, ive tried everything, dimming the lights, turning them off, changing the color, even covering with a blanket and putting up aquarium background and absolutley nothing stops him from surfing the glass.
Mine do this when they’re hungry. Sometimes they’ll flare against their reflection but not super common. If I put a hat on tho he starts flaring at me too haha! Sounds like you just have an active guy
I got one even better, check out my recent video called Fluval Flex Mods pt 2. My buddy makes modifications for the flex. One is a plate the covers the back three chambers and has a bunch of holes in it for sticking plants into it to grow out of the rear filter box. That way you still utilize both intakes whilst still having plants in the back. He also offers lid props to hold the lid open while working on the tank, as well as risers for the lid to lift it up so plants can grow up and out as well as a ton of other accessories such as spray bars, finer intake covers so baby shrimp and fish don’t get sucked into the back chamber and much much more items as well.
Honestly, no I think it’s too small. I’d personally go for something like a used 55 gallon cuz they’re cheap and just fill it halfway. It’s more so the footprint you want for an axolotl so they can grow to their fullest
Yea I don’t see why not. You’re just limited on space, I’d try and go for the 15 gallon vs the 9 gallon model just so you could do some cool decor or plants too.
Truthfully depends what you want. There’s tons of nano fish available these days that are super small. There’s also shrimp. As well as a simple betta. Although for bettas, I’d recommend a Plakat betta like mine where they have shorter fins. It allows them to handle the current much more efficiently
No I wouldn’t say that. I’d say something like Phoenix rasboras, ember tetras, emerald eye rasboras, celestial pearl danios, pea puffers, something of that nature
I have heard of this, I just recommend swapping the pump to one with adjustable flow. A pump for this 9 gallon are super cheap from Hygger. I did a video/review on it in the past.
Great video! We definitely do like it :) We'll be sharing it with our fans on Facebook tomorrow!
Thank you so much!!! Glad you liked it :) You guys are awesome!
