This is the basics on setting up a fish tank. Its a 10 gallon with both mechanical and sponge filtration. I also show how to treat city water and how to speed up the growth of beneficial bacteria.

Hey that's a really great tank I was wondering if you ever thought of using live plans. Plenty of great plants that you can use that feed off the water column. And of course your API products are not great. I live in Taiwan I actually don't need to use like products like that I pretty much let the water sit for 3 days and then I use almond leaves to soften the water Everything pretty much stays stable as far as pH.

Very informative video. Got a 10 gl tank with all the setup, added conditioner and quick start. After 24 hours took the sample to store and they said water is fine. Got 2 glow fish and they died in few hours. Do I need to cycle the water more? Like that ammonia nitrite and nitrate thing?
@electricblueaquariums4821
@electricblueaquariums4821 3 жыл бұрын
I’m assuming that if they died that quick it’s not from ammonia, nitrates, or nitrites. How long was your trip from the fish store? How long did you float the bag before adding your fish to your tank? And what temp is your tank at? Also what did the fish look like before they died… any white spots, bloated stomach or ripped up fins, anything that would indicate they are not healthy?

Dave L if you use city water then u will need to add conditioner for sure every time. I only use stress when adding to new tank. I add quick start when cleaning a sponge filter or other filter media to help seed new bacteria. I never clean/change all my filter media at once,I rotate to make sure there is always enough bacteria
