Any time!

@turtlerides Ай бұрын

Hey Mark, that brown buildup is probably bacterial biofilm or iron deposits. It could affect the shrimp's health, so it might be a good idea to give it a scrub sometimes. Great videos bud 😊

I did and its been cleaned out, I am not sure I will use tapwater now.

... There is a great product called 'Bar keepers friend' , that is great for cleaning hard water stains off fish tanks... It is plant based, so is safe for animals. 💚💜😁😍 Great video Mark. 🦐

Love the new informal videos. Have to tried putting a house plant in your tape water tank? There might be just enough nutrients in it to keep algae alive.

@MarksShrimpTanks Ай бұрын

That whole thing was cleaned out and I just drained the water.

@claywise43 Ай бұрын

Is it wrong that I’m eating shrimp cocktail for lunch while watching this? 😆

@MarksShrimpTanks Ай бұрын

No hahahaha , I used to love shrimp cocktail the fresher the better and slightly chilled.

@ayottend Ай бұрын

Yes, if making any water changes when I get water in my mouth, I spit it out. I keep in mind that the water in my tank is usually cleaner than any natural water source. Sure it could be drunk but it's also full of waste, I know swimming in the outdoors the water is worse, so if I was thirsty, I might swallow, but in a emergency, that would be drinking reserves.

Walking, helps your back decompress. Do you have bears in there ?

@MarksShrimpTanks 8 сағат бұрын

I try and walk at least 3 times a day with the dog, when the kids move out that will go up to 4-5 times a day.

Can we grow java moss on lava rock? Like cutting the java moss and putting it on lava rocks and letting it grow in a humid environment without filling the aquarium with water until the java moss covers the whole surface?

Great setup mate 😀 i would think high Iron may be good for the plants ?

@MarksShrimpTanks Ай бұрын

You would think so right, I didnt mention it in the video but I am getting a mains filtration kit added to our water supply in the house, so the filters will be visible on the shrimp room.

Hi. How many gh per water change at 300 ms? How much GH do you have in your tanks? You make cool videos, I always watch them with interest.🙂

Unfortunately, I switched out all my UGF boxes back to sponge filters. Constantly clogging and terrible water movement.

@MarksShrimpTanks Ай бұрын

Yeah the only downside, some of my most successful tanks have been with this type of setup, its good to have a back up sponge in the tank.

@briandotson8028 Ай бұрын

@@MarksShrimpTanks Yeah, I still keep the active soil in the UGF box for easy changing of soil with just a little soil on the bottom of the tank but use the sponge filter.

Stop sucking syphon it's rank AF. I fill my hose at sink with clean water. Cap ends with thumbs or kink it trapping water. Plop one end in tank, the other to drain. Wholla! No more syphon roulette. Can submerge hose in tank instead of sink if short hose too. Ps MarksBarebottomtanks may gain search yield though lol
