I really enjoyed your setup, and you presented it clearly and very well. You will no doubt get much enjoyment from it. Take care

Great video - I'm pleased to have found you whilst looking for info on aquananos - I'm looking to upgrade y fluval flex 9gl which is starting to feel super small and limited now I'm at the point of being able to stock it. A great tank to learn with though. I thought your tutorial was well balanced and informative. I'm looking to use some of the substrate from my old tank for my new one and will definitely check out those bags. The soil sand mixing is a nightmare! Anyway, please keep making videos !

Thanks a lot for this, I'm just about to start something similar but subtropical (WCMM, Zebras and Rosy barb) - will the snails also work in that and any other tips for a cooler tank?

Horned Nerite snails, not nitrate.

Where did you get the custom tank from and how much? I've got the grey version of your cabinet and been debating the 30cubed tanks because i can't find any 40s!
