Father Fish has developed a system that overcomes 2 of the major problems unresolved by the Walstad system. Anaerobics in the substrate and reduction of nutrients are major issues confounding fish keepers who wish to establish a dirted deep substrate system. Through 10 years of research Father fish has designed solutions for both of these concerns.
The video also discusses natural food as a third important issue in the development of the Father Fish dirted deep substrate system.

FF Don't apologize for long videos. I love all the information. Some people make videos that are too short and leave too many questions unanswered. I appreciate the work you do to keep us informed.🙂

When I was just getting into the hobby, I went into a specialized shop to buy some plants for my aquarium. While chatting to shopkeeper, I told him that I had a dirted tank. He had never heard of this concept before and actually laughed at how ridiculous this idea was to him! I still can't believe how narrow minded this man was with regards to a concept that is in fact much more logical than a non-dirted tank...

Father fish method works. 3 years no water change, crystal clear

@waynewyzina3659

Father fish is the future of the hobby. Before I started watching you, I was spending so much money to keep my fish alive. Now I have know dead fish and their happy.

Charles Drew? Walstad? Tell Richard Sexton that Brandon Olson survived like an old Loach still alive.

I started using dirt and sand 20 years ago against all advice telling me it wears out. In my experience they were right because over those two decades I couldn't get my substrate to last more than 30 months. If this channel can get me over this hump I'm all in.

@megurupriyan

you're like David Attenborough, love your content, I setup 4 tanks following your advise.

@Wal48

Interesting video. I do remember Diana Walstad saying the initial nutrient content of soil would be exhausted after a year, but did go on to point out that due to the high cation exchange capacity of the soil it will gain further nutrient from fish food, fish waste etc and continue to support plant life for a good many years. I have one that’s been going for nine years, initially set up with an inch of top soil and a thin as I could get away with covering of gravel and continues to thrive. I think you are right about the industry not wanting to promote this method, I had an aquarium shop assistant warning me that I would just end up with a mess if I used soil! Well several tanks later I can happily report that has not been the case and I have been delighted with the results.

No need to apologize for a long video, you always explain in details and we love it because we learn and you're our great teacher, much love.

@FarizMammadov-qw8rc

I change today 50 percent water, because i have no change 2 months water, result is filter is full dirty, my plants get dirty surface and other bad things. The dirt + sand setup the best/ i have replace some plants I see them root super strong!

@crimescene3448

Now i know why the aquascaping community disagrees with this legend. Your tanks take a long time to mature where as these guys want their tanks to be perfect in a matter of months. Your tanks are for home use, enjoyment of the sitting room, slowly maturing, slowly changing looks, growing with the family and for that i give you thumps up.

@snakeeyes7277

Just transferred my four survivors from my clean tank into a mud sand tank. Im absolutely in love and only cost me $8. I luckily live next to alot of water! My fishes are so happy!

@stud_sidious

Love your videos & advice. Unfortunately some aquarium hobbyists want crystal clear water. Although your technique is absolutely correct & how nature has intended things to be there will always be a slight tint in the water. (Obviously that changes up & down from clear to a slight tint depending on the phase of the natural cycle happening). I know that’s how it’s supposed to be & fully agree. There are just some hobbyists that want to super clear water & will never understand. They see algae as a nuisance. Yes some are but most are a normal part of the natural ecosystem. Great video as always. 👍

@ThisDaniYT

I love you man. We need to support the Father Fish and spread the word. To me, his words are awakening a true love and passion for this amazing world. I had an aquarium not a long time ago which you can classify as the Father says "a dead aquarium" it was very stressful. Now, thanks to him I find it amazing and really enjoyable again.

You are the greatest “presenter” of any information on uTube.

Thank you for everything you do, we need more elders like you in this world.

Thank you for such wonderful information. I don't have a fish tank, but I love getting knowledge on things that I am interested in . And your knowledge is wonderful. I love to learn from you . Thank you.

@cathyhendrix7552

Your video wasn't to long. Not at all. It actually seemed to go fast because it was very interesting. And I learned from your video. I was sad when it ended. Thank you so much for passing along your knowledge and sharing it with us.

@liquidlar

Pretty impressive, You pretty much figured out how to make a tank that supports itself for the most part. Seems part of the key is time. sure the initial nutrients will probably deplete but over time the mulm will make its way down into the substrate.
