Thanks! I've used airline tubing to corral floating plants before, but didn't think of using it to support plants like this pothos before! What a great idea! Love the black tubing too. I've never had that before, but will order some soon. Again, thank you for this DIY!

Genius! Take my subscription, I've been trying to jerry rig riparian plants for years and have most of mine just flopping around at the moment. Do you have videos exploring different sorts of plants that will grow? There's a ton of 'these plants will grow in water' videos but few with fish tanks, and I'd love to get out of the box of just using the usual suspects

@voluntaryismistheanswer 9 ай бұрын

Other than keeping the water low, ideas for not having jumpers without a cover? :/ or making a cover work with plants? (I have three of those marineland 5s you've got, and cut the back out- derp! Well I can always silicone it back lol) my favorite betta jumped a couple days ago (I bred her myself, she was *so* tame and beautiful) and I'm broke up about it)

@Betta_Days 9 ай бұрын

Oh wow! Your comment has made my day I’m SO glad I could help you solve your problem! I’ll try my best to come out with a video on which plants work well in an aquarium. ☺️ I’d honestly like to get the back out of my 5-gal and Instal a sponge filter. I think you did the right thing! I’ll explore ways to keep a jumper in its tank and make a video for you on that as well! ♥️ Thank you for subbing and welcome to the betta fam!

Your frogbit looks perfect! how do you get them to look like that? I just bought new ones and they arent looking that good Maybe its the light? I have the same aquarium you have but I use the light that came with it

@Betta_Days 11 ай бұрын

If I'm being honest I don't have a clue 😆 In my smaller tank they die! The ONLY difference is that in this tank there is zero current. I also dose fertilizer, but I do that in the other tank as well. I know that plants have to initially get used to your water parameters, but frogbit has always been a mystery to me 😂

@@Betta_Days Hi. Please can I ask u a questions? I see the water level is well below the top of the aquaria. Is this prevent a d of your beautiful boys jumping out? With no cover glass the evaporation must be high? I would be interested to hear why you leave the tanks uncovered. Huge thnx. Love your channel. Fascinating and I learn so much and gives food for thought. Steve Romania

@Betta_Days 4 ай бұрын

@@stevehornshaw4478 yes I leave the water level low because there isn’t a lid. I also do so to provide room for the house plants that I have in that upper area. The evaporation is pretty high, but I just top it off every day or so. ☺️

Do you leave your prayer plants in the aquarium indefinitely? I tried with mine and they all failed. Wondering if they just didn't take or if they just aren't meant to live in the aquarium permanently

Don't use pothos if you have dogs or cats as this plant is very toxic

@nathananderton8546 10 ай бұрын

Pothos tastes horrible and most pets will not touch it. Of all the plants our cat chews on, she never touches the pothos and neither do our dogs. A quick google search will confirm that pet poisoning to pothos rarely occurs.

Did Google interview everyone in America who has pets? I absolutely love and care for my pets so why would I take the risk? There are many other plants that aren't toxic that you can place in your aquarium. @@nathananderton8546
