All of my aquariums are just like this, natural, healthy, filled with life, and self sustaining. These are wonderful systems, easy to create and beautiful for a lifetime.
Can you come fix mine pls!
Teach me your ways
Water gets cloudy and algae forms very often... Plants are fully covered with algae now... please suggest
@@naveenkumar-sz6bn There might be many other reasons but if you 1.plant fast growing stem plants, 2. check your lightning (wattage & hours CFL/LED) 3.Water change for the first month (once every 3 days)
I have a similar setup but my fishes start to swim on surface most of the time.i have submersible filter with a bit of surface aeration.60% plant filled tank with 10 guppies ....all this issue but none have died since 3 months of setup....please suggest should i use an air pump...filter
I applied pot soil in my aquarium 35 years ago. The plants were growing like rockets! Echinodorus grew strong and high, up to 2 feet (60 cm) in no time. Never seen such a result with all the expensive commercial products. Just a layer of pot soil covered with small sized grit. I also installed a pump for circulation and a dry bio filter.
Gotta love your jungle, seriously. It's probably one thr only few ecologically balanced dirted tanks out there. Minimal to none algae issues. Fish are healthy. And the plants are displaying sturdy growth, not leggy (signs of deficiencies) at all. Kudos! 👍👍
I have to wonder how many people think this tank is just an overgrown mess.
I think it looks more like a section of natural lake-bottom than any other tank I’ve ever seen on TH-cam.
It’s beautiful and fascinating, unlike every high-tech tank you ever see with their incessantly manicured rainbow-colored plants. They all look like they were designed by the prop people at Disneyland. 🧜🏻♀️🎵Under dah sea...🎶🦀🙄
Why the hate? Can't you just complement the tank without having to put down someone else's taste?
mar504 You’re an idiot.
Your tank is so simple and stunning. Consistency is the key here.
You made me fall in love with black Molly
Thank you very much for your wonderful video
+Dileep Hm Thanks, soon I wił shouve You more of my tanks :)
+Home Aquarium the betta finally died right ? i couldnt find him
Yes he was old
+Home Aquarium good job thats a good looking tank
Thanks
I love how you start the video with how it’s going to look so we don’t have to skip to the end. Beautiful tank and well done video *thumbs up*
+ElansForest Thanks :)
The time and patience for this, impressive!
Thanks, in that hobby you need to be patience ;).
Amazing ! It looks like an under water forest. Congratulations :)
Thanks :D.
zero stress on those fish. so full of life, just a great tank.
Amazing tank. I’d love to do this,but the plants in my state are to expensive to plant this dense. Thanks for sharing.
This same reason is why I’ve got 2 10gals. Bought only a few plants in the first one, grew it out and propagated for about 6 months, then set up a second with only a few new plants and the excess from the original tank. In another 6 months to a year I hope to get a much bigger tank to plant as densely as op’s. Method requires patience but it’s cheap!
Sieht sehr schön aus!🇩🇪👍👍👍
Thank you for making an video on planted aquarium, such an easy and beautifully designed aquarium for begginers too...
you have a lot of snails! I love those things. They might be snails, but cool to watch
Loving those guppies,. And the black mollies are to die for . I'm jealous 😎
I just love your tank ..it's so simple yet so beautiful ..❤️ I can watch this again and again 🔥
Awesome tank! many happy fish, no need all the other expensive crap...😉👍
This was the best aquarium I ever seen
Tank you :-)
Just goes to show you, you don't need all of the high tech to make a beautiful tank.
what electronic devices he added at 1:05. water heater or anything else?
Yes IT is water heater. But I used IT only for a short time.
Huh.. you think this is as beautifull as a nice full setup aquascape???
True my budget was only 50 euro's
@@Mutation80 I spent $70 on an aquarium With an Azoo 150 Filter (No heater because I live in a tropical country near the equator) and it looks pretty sick
Nice work on both the tank and the very watchable video. Subscribed :)
Thanks :).
Very Nice tank there and i just started my no co2 no filter no pump low tech planted tank recently as well 😀👍🏻i started 2x of them and its my very first time trying it too, its very rewarding and i am also very excited to see how it goods as well hopefully will have the same results as yours too cheers
I keep my fingers crossed and I wish you good luck;)
@@homeaquarium2180 Cheers

Thanks :)
Amazing beautiful aquaspace..!! Great work !!
Thanks :)
Those look like some verrry happy fish!! Awesome thank man!!👍😁😁
Thanks.
this tank is so awesome to watch...u have really done a great job.. God Bless
Thanks :)
Thank you for the video. I wish there had been some information regarding the first few weeks and/or months.
A beauty with hard water fishes...
Such a beautiful tank, I love all the vegetation
More plants more good, especially a small ecosystem seems so deep, big
BEAUTIFUL VIDEO
A couple questions about this tank:
-how many gallons per hour of filtration did you have?
-Initially, after how much time did you add fish?
-Lighting? Watts? Time on?
-Did you run into any algae probs? If so how did you fix?
-What is your clean up crew in the tank?
-How many times a week do you feed your fish?
It would help me VERY much if you answered these Qs pls!
Hi its not a problem I always try to answer all questions.
1. At the bgining there were normal sponch filter, I dot remember houve much l/h it wos. Naue there is tetra ex 800 plus.
2. I add them right after follting, I put there old filter sponches.
3. I always light up my tanks hesam, 10H each day.
4. I dodnt have any alge problems exept gree alge on glas, i skrech them with blade.
5. I got there only snails.
6. I feed them 5 days a week. When is feeding day I give them food twice a day. From time to time I give them more nutritious food, made with myself and after such food they have 2 days of fasting.
Thanks! This will help!
Ok the Tetra Ex 800 is 800 liters/hour.
Your tank is 100 liters right? So you filtering 8 times the tanks volume. Cool.
What lights do you use? LED? How many watts? What is Hesam?
Are those mystery snails you have?
What food do you make? Do you have a video?
@@homeaquarium2180 I have one more question, what is the grid material you put in right after the dirt and before the gravel/sand. Does that keep the plants in place?
Wonderful,
Jean
It's beautiful! 😍
Seems super rewarding!
Ur awesome bro..... u have nice addiction...🙌🙌🙌....
Thanks :)
absolutely ĺovely , I so miss this type of tank as I now keep marines I love the jungle effect :)
Thanks :).
lovely...always a fan of such simple and beautiful one..can you please give the detail of lights you used?
It's lovely. Well done
Yes,I like this video.
beautiful work, subscribed!
+fabnsass Thanks ;)
😍😍👍great work..
Thanks
Very Beautiful
Awsome job bro
+Raj Endran Thanks.
That was pretty special thanks.
how beautiful!!
Your plants are excellent . 👍. May i confirm with you again ? You don't use co2 at all in this tank ? I am so inspired by it. Thank you. Waiting for your reply. Thanks again!
Hey, thanks for coment. Yes i dont use any of co2. All used plants are easy and they dont need special tritment.
Beau travail !
nice video!! great job!!!
Thanks :)
Amazing
Wow..This is amazing.
+BettaJanggut 75 Thanks
Too much fish in that environment. The number should be reduced. I think adding exotic shrimps would help to maintain the tank cleaning. They eat algae and keeps it clean. Give these fish to another tank owner who has same species and a huge tank or to a new ones. And add some pigmy gouramis or like some small size species of gouramis. And the drift wood would be lovely. That tank will be so cool.
Hi .. This is such a wonderful view.. Few queries plz .. With so many plants , the co2 level in water will be high. How to solve that? If Oxygen machine is put, wont that disturbe the plant growth?
Do you change the soil to replenish nutrition ? If so , how often
How do you clean it and how often ? Do you take out the entire set up, clean and then reassemble ?
Please reply.. Thank you
Nice work bru
Very nice Tank! im surprised your plants look so healthy without a carbon source. I just started dosing excel in my low tech that has been running 2 months because not alll plants where thriving. Did your plants do so well from the start? or was there melting and stagnation initially?
I didnt have any problems with plants, at the beginning they look better because of that all soil wos from fresh soil.
Read Diane Walstad book. As the soil breaks down there is a source of CO2:Carbon in dirted tanks. Just not pressurized but instead Organic means..
Nice Video!
+Aquariums Around The World Thanks.
Fantastic
Thanks
So with planted aquariums like this one you don't need to siphon the bottom as you do with just gravel?
Tank size? Type of lighting? Plants list please. Just started setting up my 55 gallon tank and it’s my first time trying planted. This video was an inspiration to try it for myself.
+rotweiler18 That's great :) Tank size is 80 x 35x35 cm. Andrzej light is about 0,3w/l
Loved this
Impresionante!!!!! Realmente bello!!!!!
nice job!!!
Thanks :)
Superb
Thanks
Hats off...🎩.
Thank you :).
It's really amazing........ But I think it's so tough to maintain
Thanks, that thank doesnt need much attenction.
🍃 Wonderful
Thanks ;)
@@homeaquarium2180 welcoem. ☺️
So you mean we do not need to clean gravel at all? Just change 20% water every week thats all? And what about plants ?
2. Will they be able to stay healthy by just the garden soil? Or we need some fertilisers?
3. Does it smell?
It doesn't smell. And about plants it depends what will you use and what will live in aquarium.
@@homeaquarium2180 I mean do you add any kind of fertilisers?
Really super
Thanks
great💜
Why did you put a net over your soil? All my tanks are also dirted and capped with gravel.
Your aquarium looks great. How long do you have your lights on for? How often do you change the water?
Light is on abuut 10h dayli. I change water in 10%-20% each week or two.
Hello sir first of all your tank is superbbbb.. Someone said that if you use garden soil in your tank it will be become dity quickly so what your opinion ??
As you can see in movie it isnt dirty. If you do not dig in the substrate and exaggerate by pulling hard rooted plants, nothing will happen
do you add some algae eaters on this such as shrimps or snails? what kind of snails or shripms do you use to keep it free from algae?
There were both snails and shrimps in the aquarium. Snails are pink coves and prawns are neocaridina red sherry.
So beautiful aquarium I have aquarium my name is Zuber Shaikh
;)
Happy fish
Bhai 1.5 by 1 feet planted aquarium can we put 2 angel fish, 4 shrimps, 4 simese algea eater , 6 neon tetra. Plz tell
No angels, add more tetra, school of 10-12, lots of plants and shrimp
@@Cody-mu5sj No all of it can fit, in fact it needs more angel fish, also you can keep a great white in a 5 gal or is that to0 LaRgE?
thanks for reply. If you please tell about types of light that can be used and also about minimum water temperature for the plants. Do they die in low temperature?
No problem. And as for the light it is not important what type you will use, what is its power, if there will be enought plans will grou. About thmperature I dont use any hiter so in ny thanks there is always about 20-27C, but once i left hydrocotyle on my backyard and it was still alive when tempreature wos about 10C.
What type of light? Guess no co2?
Nice set up!
there are 2 x 18 W fluorescent lamps and 5 x 1,5 W LED. Yeap I dont dose co2.
How do you do to know if there are dead fish ? Howdo you remove them ?
I dont :), snails do they work.
Would these do well in an aquaponics system?
probably about a 20 gallon after all those plants installed lol looks great though
Thanks.
nice. only heater + water pump? no filter? no co2...
Yep, there is only water pump what you can see on film, but it has sponge on it so it is biological filter. There is no co2.
Im sure all those snails helped keep the algae low at the beginning until the plants took off more. So why do you have a CO2 reader on the right side of the tank if this is low tech?
I want to check co2 level.
What did you mean by salts of nitrogen,potassium,phosphorus?did you mean npk chemical fertilizer?
Yes, I'm making it by myself.
Awesome Planted tank! hoping to see more videos.
btw, what light did you put on this?
Thanks, ofc I will upload more videos soon. Aquarium has 2 x 16w Fluorescent lamp and 6x 1,5 LED modules.
what kind of soil did you used in the starting ..??
can i use manure .. and then cover it with gravels..??
From what I've seen previously, you use organic garden soil. It has to be organic, because the other stuff contains shit that will pollute the water.
If you were still wondering
Amazing work! What type of garden soil did you use? I have heard people said garden soil is not good for the tank? But yours seem to work out perfectly fine!
You can use whatever garden soil you have and doesn't mater for plants.
I have heard many myths about the use of such a substrate, but as you can see it works. Soon I'll show more of my aquarium.
soil works great.
The problem with soil is there is no moving around plants, like I can with my Flourite clay. I can pull up a plant, shake it a little, and move it where I want. Not happening with soil. You pull up that plant, and you have a muddy mess on your hands.
AuSZhao 1 huge disadvantage is that soil will begin to rot eventually. Which will begin to produce toxic gasses in a later stage. Doing a aquarium with soil is something from the old days of aqua ruin keeping. Better to use a layer of clay, the best with the most nutrients would be French red clay.
But apart from the soil pretty nice aquarium. Could u do a part 2, say after 1600 days. You've got my interest.
Sounds like you guys haven't used soil..It works great and lasts forever! You can move plants, you just have to let the dirt settle and you're good. The best thing is you can get the dirt and gravel from Menards or wherever for less than ten bucks.. Beats ~$50 from the pet store! Unless you like throwing away money ;p
yes it begins to rot and decompose but this is good for plants it gives them more nutrients from the breakdown of the organic matter that is why you should use organic soil not fertilized
Did you do any maintenance on the tank during the 800 days other than fertilizing? Did you trim the plants at all or add/take out fish?
Yes ofc, tank is still runing.
how to treat the plants and soil to make them free from bacteria before adding to aquarium?
You can make them short-term bath in a delicate solution of KMnO4. You can buy it in any drugstore.
You can bake the soil in the oven at about 200 degrees Celsius.
I can GUARANTEE you those fish are better off overcrowded there, then they are in small groups or being alone in a tank with little to none real plants. the add some shrimp and i doubt the waste would build up in the slightest
have you installed any...mechanical or electrical filters....or there is only natural filteration taking place
There is a canister filter - tetra ex 800 plus.
From the first 3 months, how often you make water changes?
And how long your photo period per day?
It's really beautiful but over stocked
Thank you, the fish themselves are in control of their population
hello aquarium home....what is fertilizer ratio of potassium, nitrogen and phosphorus?
I don't measure it.
Where did you get the plants? Directly from a water source or from a store?
From another my tank .
I did a dirted tank with potting mix about 7 months ago, at first plants were doing well but now I think there is no more nutrients and plants doing bad. so do I need to supplement fertilisers into the water?
The problem of lack of nitrogen happens very often in the vegetable aquarium. Probably add fertilizers and check, but I would advise to feed them slowly so that no other problems arise. In the aquarium the effects of our work can be seen only after 2-3 weeks.
I have set up a walstad method tank size 15inlenghtX12in heightX10in width....planted hardy plants been 2 weeks from now plants are having slow growth...havent seen them doing photoythesis or bubbling...have a filter installed and using 7watt led on the acrylic lid of the tank...please help if i am not seeing plant bubble out is any thing wrong????
also tell me the particles floating in water and slight bubbles on the corner surface of water are normal??
My plants olomust never have bubles. Bubles arę maked only when plant have a lot of light. Dont wory about that. Whach my other movies and look there for mor clues. And about bubles on surface its normal, on Waters there is olways some dust that's why it makes bubles on surface.
@@homeaquarium2180 Thanks alot
No problem ;)
What kind of fertilizers are advised in these kind of setups
I try not to give anything. This is usually done thanks to the right amount of light, fish, food and garden soil. However, if I have to give something, these are just the basic elements needed for plant life nitrogen, potassium phosphorus. Keeping the right proportions between them.
Thanks Sir
Sir want to ask that this grass are original or copy
How many fish are in this aquarium looks like 40-50
I never count IT :-)
Sir, how do you take care of their feces? want to try a tank with plants soon...
Biology cares for itself. I sometimes pull the excess with the help of a snake. If they accumulate at the windshield.
Very ameture but professional
