tanks for nothin

Күн бұрын

Making a nocturnal, underground paludarium was not the plan when I set out to build a DIY fish tank rack. After carving foam into the shape of a shallow cavern with a waterfall and wild moss, I knew exactly what tropical species would be right at home inside. I never expected the aquarium section would lend itself to amphibious life, but after a year of careful adjustments it has become an (almost) self-sustaining oasis.
Follow along as the fish tank develops the natural way; with no filter, and no co2 injection.

I mean, if you pay attention to the time frames he specifies during his videos, it's quite obvious they take a long time to produce. Nature is anything but quick so creating a living ecosystem from basically zero, letting it grow and develop so he can make good highlights, takes a LOT of time.

Seeing these videos inspired me, a middle school science teacher, to make a natural aquarium in my classroom at the beginning of this school year. Last year, I started to teach 7th grade science. In my old, cluttered classroom, someone had left a 30gal tank. It held a bag of soil, lab equipment, and whatever trash the kids managed to sneak into it. I didn't think much of it for months since my first year of teaching felt like drinking tank water through a fire hose. It wasn't until I saw your videos a few months ago that I felt the excitement and confidence to fill the aquarium with life. I am not tech savvy at all, so seeing your beautiful ecosystem tanks made me feel like the aquarium hobby could work for me. Better yet, letting nature take the lead for my first tank felt like a better lesson for me and my students. I planted the tank and let it sit for a while, as the scuds, worms, snails, and whatever else overtook the large tank. Slowly over the year, I added guppies, pygmy corydoras, some kuhli loaches, a honey gourami, and some shrimp I smuggled in as well. The adorable Animal Crossing or Yoshi noises for those guppies and pygmy corydoras in the guppy tank video made me fall in love with those fish. It has made my job a lot more fun for me and my kids. Now, as I close up the year, my students are giving presentations on their small ecosystem jar project I did with them, using some mason jars I found under a lab sink, plus the plants and critters that had overgrown my tank. Their projects are testing their hypotheses about snails, scuds, and water fleas as we close the year with a unit on biodiversity. I can't wait to reward their hard work by showing them this video on our last few days of school. All of this to say... tanks for nothin? More like thanks... for EVERYTHING.

That's absolutely wonderful and I'm so glad you think this'd be a good relevant video for them. I have a friend who is working on introducing a planted tank into a young classroom and I might even be able to help work on it later down the line. I'm happy for the kids that have an opportunity to discover things about the natural world at a young age so thank you for spearheading such a project. They'll appreciate you a lot when they look back years from now.

One thing I really appreciate about your videos is that you also include ideas that didn't work, or things that go slightly wrong. Even just mentioning that you spent a bunch of time thinking up solutions for the door and then realized you didn't have to go to all the trouble. A lot of people streamline their projects in editing to make it seem like everything went completely perfect. I'm someone who can get easily discouraged when stuff goes wrong or I realize I've wasted time; you make that part of the fun, and I find it very inspirational. Glad to see some new stuff, this is amazing and now I'm excited to try something similar myself someday!

Can't wait to see!​@@tanksfornothin (Also I have an idea for the next tank.): It's a prehistoric paludarium. Nothing but Moss, Ferns, Horsetails, and Hornwort plants. For animals we have some stand ins that aren't quite prehistoric, but certainly have a similar appearance. Newts, gobies, khuli loaches, shrimp, Isopods, and Millipedes. Sounds cool right? (This can represent the late Devonian through the Carboniferous.)

I have four tanks, and it was a massive struggle to get them stable. The only reason I managed it was I went completely rogue from normal fishkeeping techniques, and BOY does it feel validating to see someone else doing the same thing with success. We, or at least, I, are always happy to wait to see some new (or old) wiggly friends

I don't think I've ever seen an amateur video along these lines as professionally done, with perfect foley work, excellent music cues, emotion, storytelling and sharing of knowledge as yours. If you aren't, please consider a career in nature documentary making as you're a natural.

I love how you did both above water and below water, then took it a step further and added frogs which use the entire ecosystem as their home

the perfect balance of editing, narration, music, humor, and simply fascinating ideas!! i have zero aquarium knowledge, but these videos are such a treat. the little sound effects given to all the critters are just so delightful! (like, seriously, villager noises for the loaches??? unexpectedly perfect!) thanks for the video!

I don't usually comment on videos, but I must break my tradition to tell you how much I've enjoyed watching this one. The video is very well made, the whole time I was accompanied by your soothing voice and the music in the background was also relaxing and well chosen. And the sounds of the life in the paludarium were a symphony to my ears. I also love your editing, it makes the whole video dynamic and it's fun to watch. All of your videos inspired me to try to make an aquarium of my own (albeit nothing as ambitious as your work). I'd like to thank you for this video once again, please, keep up the good work!

Hi Tanks. I just wanted to let you know that you are the only aquarium channel that I follow because of how not cringe and over-the-top dramatic you are. And you have a great sense of humour. Keep it up bud! The Minecraft music is perfect too!
