Maybe you're in the wrong social circles. Most aquarists I know, who are big into fish has tanks like these. These are aquarists who have done it for 20+ years, unlimited fish budgets etc. After a while you develop a style that works for you. Also you tend to gravitate towards people with similar styles.

Aquarium Co-Op I am in the wrong circle Cory I'm surrounded by saltwater people who keep a few freshwater tanks that refer to plecos as cleaner fish. 😒 That's why I love my KZfaq community 😁 On the other hand my local shrimp breeder would love a tank like this.

Absolutely agree on the water changes. I've been keeping fish for 25 years and when I mentioned on a forum that I do a water change twice a year, you would of thought I committed a felony. People use water changes as a crutch. In my opinion if you've got a properly stocked tank with fish and plants, water changes only add stress. Especially to fish that rarely see water changes.

I think it is much harder to achieve a "closed" system. So water changes make it easier, that being said because of the location of this aquarium I enjoy the challenge of such a closed system.

I love jungle tanks, they just seem more natural because mother nature doesn't grow just a little. I kind of like hunting through the foliage to find what fish is hiding where. Those Corydorus are bloody beautiful. I have always loved Corydorus, no specific reason just like them. Maybe because they get along with anything.

Have you ever had an algae explosion after taking out that much fast growing plant mass? That stuff is like a nutrient sponge. There is still a ton of it in there though so I guess it could just keep on rocking. I caused an algae bloom in a tank once when I cut out a jungle of Brazilian Pennywort. So cool!

If I didn’t know it would die back I’d be freaking out when it did. Great excuse to get a bigger tank for it. 55 is just too small.

Water changes add fresh minerals back into your tank remove excess nitrates and waste, strips are not totally accurate. I can't think of a reason why performing a normal water change would be anything but beneficial. The idea is to not get to the point where you HAVE to perform a water change. It is preventive maintenance. I love the tank btw, wish I had the space!
@jamesgrant3343
@jamesgrant3343 2 жыл бұрын
Also steady CO2 injection will cause available calcium to be dissolved over time so weekly removing water and adding remineralised water is a stable, low stress way to maintain PH, KH and GH over time as well as ensuring that there’s sufficient minerals for shell builders (snails etc). Doesn’t have to be a massive change but 10-20% per week is plenty

This is what the wisteria does in my Neocaridina shrimp tanks! It grows so fast. My water sprite also grows like crazy and is constantly spreading and forming new plants! Mayaca is another plant that I just can’t keep up with because it grows so fast. But the Mayaca comes in handy because you can float it as a guppy grass substitute... I fertilize with API Leaf Zone once per week and that’s it! I use API Leaf Zone because it’s shrimp safe(doesn’t contain copper).

Great video Cory,it was a funny 20minutes for me because my tank has been getting over grown with Wisteria as well and when I first seen your jungle I knew right then my jungle was just as bad so I gave mine a haircut as well! My poor Angelfish had little room to swim as well,especially in a small 40g but my cherry barbs,lemon tetras love to spawn in the plants so they still have their jungle,just smaller and more compact. The leaves on my wisteria become much more pinnate once they get near the top of the tank where the light is stronger as well,it's really cool to see how the leaf shapes change from low light to high light. Oh,lest I forget my Ruffled Sword is now smiling at me now because it's getting a bunch more light,now it will again grow 2 leaves a week again,big one's at that! Anyway I too enjoy just letting the tank evolve and change over time with very little intervention from me,I don't do water changes but once a month now which suits me just fine. Patience is key in this hobby and the rewards are incalculable in my opinion. Understanding of natures ways is so low these days it behooves one to view their aquarium as window to the larger world and to appreciate the genius and wonder of natures intrinsic ability to do what it needs to do without our constant fussing about!

I really wish my water wisteria would grow like that. I have co2 tabs that I use, they have made a big difference in how my plants grow. I also use seachem flourish. I also have seachem substrate as well, that is mixed with a Sandy substrate so the roots of my plants can plant themselves better. My doesn't have a grow light, but it gets plenty of light I also have a multi colored light that most plants like, that helps promote the growth of them, they also get alot of indirect sunlight.
