School of lion fish would be amazing. I don’t think I’ve seen that done before. Also, great idea for the filtration on the 2000. Cheap easy setup that can prove to be much more powerful and beneficial than any filter sold on the market. Loved this video dude 👏🏻

I have a magic eraser under my air pump to minimise the noise and vibrations, if that big one is vibrating the shelf abit you could try putting one under each of the giant air pumps legs. Ps I love watching your videos and seeing you you get excited for stuff you want to do. Have you ever kept Kuhli loaches?

@joelingtonmcjoule5603 Жыл бұрын

You might get more flow from smooth hose, the ribbed ones increase turbulence, which reduces flow. although you may already be at the point of diminishing returns if the pumps very powerful

For cleaning up those drilled holes... ya don't need to struggle... a cheap metal deburring pen when used softly will do that in 1 swipe each side... easy peasy.. and the pvc can be done the same way for easier insert

For the Koi pond in my sun room I wanted to avoid the appearance of aeration in the pond so I added an aeration chamber as the final stage of the filter allowing me to really crank up the air without it being seen.

Joey can I ask for a filter design were the Pump is at the end after all the media, I have a feeling that running the aquarium water straight to the pump first will get it dirty faster and I’m tryna have to clean it atleast as possible, if I was to make something like this I would have to dedicate a bin just for the filter at the end, then make sure I have piping running from the pond to the first bin, thank for helping me visualize my idea now time to sketch!

Move the lights within a foot of the plants and keep that gap as they grow. Also slightly over stock the tank to keep up with the plants needs

Pollenation is something you do to flowers. Tomatoes usually take care of that themselves. (Outside) Indoors, they may need your help. But not until they bloom.
