Ultimately I think it comes down to filtration capacity. A tank full of plants with a well done substrate system is completely different from a bowl with three pebbles and a softball sized goldfish. If the fish and plants are healthy and well thats what matters at the end of the day. Nice build MD.

Tiny fish in a nice-sized bowl in my opinion is ok. When you think about it any size aquarium is tiny compared to living in a lake, stream, or river. They are in a protected environment with no fear of predators. They have live plants, rocks, and driftwood so they feel at home and at ease. They get plenty of nutritious food. Perhaps they even get live food. What more can a little fish ask for. It's fish heaven.

I have almost the exact same setup in a 3 gallon low-tech cylindrical bowl. It has been up and running successfully for almost 4 years. I started with 6 carbon neocaridina shrimp, and 4 chili rasboras. I now have about 25 shrimp and the same 4 rasboras that have colored up very nicely. They are tiny, healthy fish and are thriving in their well balanced environment. I’m using a very small hob filter and the bowl is heavily planted. Consistency and stability is the key with tiny aquariums.

Just curious, why are people so hung up on "goldfish in a bowl"? If you get 30 gallons bowl, by all means - put your goldfish in there! It's all about appropriate amount of space per fish. I would hate to see any fish in any vessel if there not enough space. But properly sized aquarium according to your fish is fine.
@feralon9570
@feralon9570 2 жыл бұрын
@@lindaspitsyna8663 , You must be speaking of fancy types. Standard goldfish are actually pond fish and can grow up to two feet. They require way more than just 30 gallons of water to live a nice long and healthy life, it's more like a 120 gallon for a full grown gold fish. Oranda goldfish can be put in a 30 gallon if you only have one fish and keep on top of the water changes, even then they would do much better in a 40 breeder or bigger. That's the hang up people have with goldfish in bowls.

I wasn't mean about it at all. I explained that the ammonia levels in the tank would reach critical levels in a matter of days.

I've wanted to keep chili rasboras for a while, but they can't go in my 30 gal nor in my 90 gal tanks because they'd quickly become an expensive snack for my other fish. I put 5 chili rasboras in my bowl today, and fingers crossed they'll be ok.

Amazing as always. I think the "dreaded bowl" syndrome doesn't apply here. Some may not realize that you have installed a filter to your setup.... plants !! if you look at a bog or marsh, there are areas of standing water with what appears to be the same setup. (Actually, I think you have more plant per gallon then most outdoor settings 😁). The point is, your setup is fish supportive, whereas the bowl haters have only experienced setups without biological filtration. Well done indeed !!

Hello! Thank you for your videos. Please make a video where you can give us information about fertilising of your plants? From the start of a new aquarium. I have problems - I can’t understand shall I use liquid fertiliser or in tabs. In the beginning or I shall wait some weeks. This is a very important question for many beginners. Thank you!

Hey MD, great vids as always. I'm sure you are busy taking care of all those acara babies but I have a stupid question for you, how do you clean the glass on a bowl aquarium? Mines been going over a year and I'm still struggling to find an easy way to clean the glass in such a small space, normal scrapers or magnetic cleaning blocks I don't think will work on the curved glass so I'm left with getting me hand and arm in with a sponge to do it which knocks the scape all over the place, just wondering if you have any magical techniques?

@@johnduong3642 Take everything you see/watch on KZfaq with a pinch of salt. I've kept fish for years and BBA has virtually been in all my tanks at some point. There's many reasons why it appears and it's not just down to lack of Co2.

I feel like a bowl is perfect for guppy’s i don’t see an issue with a bowl and it’s perfect for office or if you have a decent size night stand help you fall asleep while watching the fish swim… I’m here for it

I agree, it's no different to having a cylinder tank in my opinion.

I’ve seen a lot of debate on wire shelves holding tanks, but it seems to be working well for you! Have you reinforced them in any way?

Thanks for posting these amazing videos! Your 3 gallon fish bowl, could you please tell me it's diameter? And did you go for the 10.62x11,22 inch bamboo board that supports the lamp? Thanks a lot, Ronald

I wonder if there’s a different way to aquascape bowl shaped tanks because magnifies the middle of the tank. Like instead of having the focus on the foreground have the focus be the middle because it’s magnified.

First time I have set up a planted aquarium, I have been following your videos for a while now. I have a big 18 gallon biorb , that is basically just a huge bowl, I would like to do this same kind of set up only on a bigger scale. I noticed on other videos you put gravel in first, then the soil, then sand. On this one you did soil, gravel, sand. Does it make any difference if you do gravel or soil first?
