That's nice that people donated the plants.

Another tip for bleaching plants. Use a good quality water dechlorinator like Prime and add it to the bucket of clean rinsing water. That way the bleach is also being broken down chemically when being rinsed off the plants. It helps as an extra safety measure, especially when dealing with sensitive or small fish. Sorry if I just repeated any info you had given!

This is cool to see live plants getting mixed into the most epic fish room I've seen outside of Sea World.

Great video by you Josh Price. You seem to be well educatad, humble and nice. Very appreciated from Europe, Sweden 👍

Glad to see people sending you guys plants cool keep up the good work 👍🇬🇧

Yooo came back to this for some plant tips, instantly noticed how much Josh has leaned out since this. Already dropped that torso fluff and now he’s stackin the muscles up 💪 keep slangin that iron big fella

Great info Josh , really enjoyed that video. The tanks look awesome as always 💜💜💜💜

Oooooh I really loved this video!! Quite therapeutic!

Hey Josh when we going to see the new African chicilid tank so excited to see more

That is black beard algae on the jungle vallisneria. I would cut out as much of the leaves that have it as possible. Its the worst algae I have ever dealt with and will literally attach to anything and everything.

To the good people who donated these plants, I'll be glad to take donations as well. =)

I love the videos and what you do. If you are having trouble growing plants in your pond room, I have two notes. 1st, the light level greatly increased shortly after reaching the planter. If the first state is how it usually is during the day, you may need to set up some more lights. 2nd, you said in a previous video that you only heat the water, not the air in that room. Even if the water is warm, if the (tropical) plants are exposed to the air / growing past the water’s surface, they could be getting cold shock.

Can we get a under water video of the the cichlid community and smaller fish living in the pool 👍👍👍👍

That big clump is also Watersprite! The thin spindley fronds are the emergent growth of the plant and once the ones in the 58 KG will end up looking like that once they grow above the water line! Each mother plant will grow daughters at each crook in the fronds of the emersed plants. Areal fronds will spore like ferns and Java ferns.

Bleach??🤔 Learnt something new today. Thank you OFR.👍🏼

the black algae on the jungle val is black beard algae. siamese algae eaters will eat it or you can just break off the leaf and let the new ones come.

Your Koi tank looks great with the plants added. 👍

Awesome for more people to donate and help out.... 🌱🌱🌱🌱👍👍😀😀

Another good how to video 😁👍

2 dislikes are the snails

Bless all of those kind folk :) The large jungle val is Giant Val ( Vallisneria Americana ) and it looks like Hygrophila Corymbosa is what's in the angle fish tank. The black stuff on the giant val looks like black beard algae.

Beautiful Discus

Great tip! Wish I knew this before adding some hornwort in my cichlid tank believing they would not devour them. They didn't eat them but developed some sort of rash that was cured with general cure and metroplex. Scared the crap out of me and had me up at all hours of the night checking on my 3 generations of yellow lab rusty mix.

Hi guys, Love the videos so far. With this video, have you guys ever thought about doing something like Aquaponics? You guys plant all these water plants to clean the water, if you guys create a couple of grow beds on that big piece of land of yours you can use all that poopy water to grow all sorts of veggies and fruits! These will then filter all that water of yours and give nice and clean water back to the fish. Its basically a win win! Unless you don't eat veggies of course ;)

Love what you guys are doing! would be awesome to have a huge fish tank to Film swimming and feeding fish!

When a stem plant gets 3/4 to the top of the tank cut it back and replant the trimmings! Another good lpant to add is a stem plant called Moneywort (aquatic plant name) aka Creeping jenny (terrestrial plant name). Roots easily and propigates from cuttings. Can grow well in a marginal, semi submerged habitat, like you are doing with the Watersprite.

That big plant in the angle tank in the Corner that you asked is what water sprite looks like when it floats 1/2 of it starts to grow emersed and some of its submersed its Pertty cool the flot grows way way faster but you have to trim the roots the well touch the bottom

Aquaponics 😍😍👌.... natural way to treat the pond

Awesome!

OHIO FISH HAS MY BRAIN FILLING WITH INFO, LEARNING AND GIVING ME KNOWLEDGE OF THINGS I NEVER KNEW BEFORE. JOSH, "IT'S AWESOME TO ME" LEARNING FROM YOU AND YOUR BEAUTIFUL, KIND FAMILY. FISH, TANKS & POOL ARE SO AWESOME THERE!🤗

Loving the video. Im in the uk and only a week of setting my tank up. Could i ask what would be the best plants to use to start out with many thanks guys.

If you need a dip that does not harm the plants, consider Potassium Permanganate in the future. You can get it at Walmart and hardware stores.

Loved the epic mullet bomb!!!

3:29 its actually water wisteria, grows pretty much the same way, but it's not as good of a floating plant as water Sprite.

Watersprite works best as a flaoting plant to absorb nutrients. You canalso plant them in a wet substrate above ground and they will transform into a terrestrial form.

With the rise bucket you should be using fresh water ever time as the bleach of the plant will make the rise water bleach dilute also rise in bucket is good but once finshed run some water over it just to get any bleach residue Soz for the comment may seem like hate it is just my life is plants and when ever I see someone doing something that can be improved I have to say something

The small, round floating plants are salvinia, a floating fern.

Amazing, gonna be using the bleach dip from now on. Does anyone know if it takes care of any snails or eggs too. Stay fishy my friends 😍😍😍

The 'big fern' thing is another watersprite. New little plants will form on the edges of the leaves of the big ones.

New subs here

Great video. The dip is just what i need. Got me some hitchhikers. The only thing i missed was...how long do u soak for? The rest was 19 parts to 1, and rinse for 15, right? I heard the rinse water is supposed to have declorinator in it.

If you dip or paint the roots in mycorrhizae or rooting gel like great white before planting them in the river and after their dip they would go ballistic and take over faster.

what are those tall background plants at the end of the video? are they some type of java fern?

That black slime is Cyanobacteria mat. The black fuzzy algae is black beard algae aka BBA.

Bleach works on plastic plants it cleans them up great makes them look like new

I am planing on make a beta fish tank with plants I was wondering how man plants would I need so I need a filter in it

i have just went from a 30 gallon to a 160 gallon i have 4 ropefish, 2 ornate bichir, 2 senegal bichir, 2 bristlenose, 2 leopard bush fish , 1 black ghost knife fish my biggest fish is my 13 inch ornate bichir what do you think about that upgrade

You don't need to put a declorinator?

Do you use CO2 for your plants?

What's the name of plant that u put in the koi tank?

Koi will start to spawn in presence of plants in their environment....this will trigger them to spawn for sure😊

Is there anyway of getting more light over the river tank? At least in winter? Think it would help. Also you need to trim stem plants so they will grow out and spread and you can take the trimmings and plant to start new ones. Maybe you already know. If so sorry just trying to help.

How long do you need to leave it in the bleach solution?

What kind of rainbows are in your planted tank

Are there fish in river system
