Not aquarium related, but...girl, your hair looks great! Oh also, thanks for the terrific aquarium content. I would definitely get that little planter thingy.

I add a layer of marimo moss to the mini planters and put them in my Betta tanks, quite near the top. The Betta love resting there :)

I was cleaning out my closet recently and found a tropical fish book from 1984 that belonged to my sister. A little trip back in time. I love it!

I actually liked the older fish magazine. I always find those interesting. Enjoy the glass pot & airstone 😀 😀😀

I've seen the little suction cup plant cups mentioned in fish groups before, but using them for little houseplants on the *outside* of the tank is GENIUS, I might have to try that...

The suction cup plant pots - I used two sizes of them to create a flame moss wall up the back side of a 29g aquarium that holds my ember tetras, emerald danios and blue neocaradina shrimp. The flame moss quickly interconnected into a big tall wall, and you can't even see the pots anymore. The fish use it as a breeding mop, and there's always new fry poking swimming in and out, and the wall of surface area is magic for displaying the shrimp. I just put chunks of moss into each cup, held down by small rocks, using two big cups and 4 small cups. Turned out flawless.

The aquarium pots could be used for house plants out the top. It would give a small peace lily a beautiful bubble to start in and have roots over flow from the container eventually . The magazine from 1980s is super adorable. In 3 pages you sent me back in time. my dad had 4 x 30 gallon tanks in the 80s .. I grew up feeding the short tanks too much food. Poor dad 😅 he did the tank maintenance every other day with me and my brother helping from 1 - 5years . I like your treasures. Can't wait to see your new room once you're done .

I have used the glass planters and the shrimp loved them, you can get even smaller ones. I have rolls of that background tape. I love the matchbox. I have to add your hair is looking FABULOUS ❤

I love the plant container, the background tape and.... the quirky matches for sure!

I used to use the little glass planters 😊 They are great, but those suction cups do end up failing. A little silicone would work to secure them more permanently. I you have not already done so, you should check out The Museum of Aquarium and Pet History.....it seems to me that it would be right up your alley.

You are SO not the only one! I love vintage stuff, too. Right now, it's the 30s through the 50s for me. Very good video. LOVE your channel's content.🥰🐟🐠

Love these finds, especially the collectibles! I would totally frame and hang that pamphlet! I see people have art in there fish rooms and I find those vintage fish photos/illustrations particularly beautiful. What does your t-shirt say if you’d share?

Nice finds. Different, yet some nice things to have. Good one Joanna.

I have they glass planters and enjoy them in my tank, but the suction cups failed regularly so I just popped the suction cup side into the gravel. My shrimp love it!

I love the plant holder and I have a diy one from an old aquarium plant basket. BUT, what a great idea you shared for outside of the aquarium too! Now I have a reason to buy the real thing! 🤭😃 Thanks for the idea! I think the other 4 ideas are good too. It was fun to have a nod to The Small Scape Saturday videos. 😊 PS. I feel ya with the room still out of sorts. Do you recall that major water leak we had in the basement? We discovered the source from the outside and are having work done this month to the foundation. Fun stuff. So right now my basement items are displaced everywhere. I’m going to try to also take this as an opportunity to get rid of a few things. 😉🤞🏻 I’m looking forward to seeing how your space comes together!!

Love it all! You validate my passion for old odd ball aquarium collectibles! Fun for all!

I just got those glass cups last week. I'm using them for pond plants in my aquarium that can only be submerged in a couple of inches of water. Loving them so far.

The glass cups are kewl, so yes on that one. Not so sure about the others. 🙂

Right there with ya!! Always collecting little odds and ends like that.

That Tetra pamphlet was included with my first 20 gallon aquarium that my Dad and I got in the 80's!! Thanks for the memories.

My first tank had the under gravel filter thing , that had uplift tubes and an air tube that connected at the bottom . With gravel on the top to hold it in place. That was in the late 70s. That’s a cute little brochure. They used to give similar ones to new aquarium owners. Which was very useful back then there was no internet. The Library was our “internet”😂

I would consider the 1st item for tiny plants inside the aquarium.. BTW your hair looks good!

I love that kind of fun stuff. I have that little glass vase too. I love it.

I use glass planters - under water, at water level and outside the tank. * If I used the suction cup planters at water level - I needed to keep the water level maintained because fish like to sit in them, give birth/lay eggs in those- so they need to keep a more constant water level.

I would be totally curious to see if that plant pot would work midway up for a shrimp feeder. Would be a nice way to see the shrimp but also easier to turkey baste up any uneaten food. Thanks for the video!

Suction cups always quit sticking to the glass after a while. I just found a thermometer that goes inside and there’s a small round magnet that sticks on the outside of the glass to hold it in place. No more floating thermometer

The glass planters are often used in reef tanks to protect tiny delicate coral frags, but definitely ditch the suction cups and use a bit of silicone instead

Like all of your videos - thank you! ❤

My favorites are the glass pots and the giant airstone. So cool. 😎

Bettas would probably like the little planter if you just put a bit of gravel and no plant 🌱 😊

I got a few of those glass pots from Temu. I use them to help convert buce by keeping them just at the water surface so it can get access to more CO2 from the atmosphere (I run low tech tanks). Ps: your hair is looking extra fabulous. Love the highlights 👌

I would buy these items. Especially the glass pot and tape. Also I have to tell you that I love your hair!!

I like the plant holders, probably going to buy some soon. Your hair looks great btw.

I want to het some of those little glass plant holders and I'd put pearl weed, Monte Carlo or similar type plants.

I have 2 of the glass planters in my aquarium with some buce and fluval stratum substrate. Also loving the hair ❤❤

You need a sign like mine in my workshop. "Bless this Mess"

I have the glass cup, mine’s identical, but I bought it for a specific purpose, and it didn’t suit. I didn’t notice the little hole in the bottom when I ordered, and I wanted it to start mini-lotus seeds. They have to be kept practically sterile for the first bit of life, I don’t know if or how they grow in the wild. They also have to be kept quite warm, or they won’t sprout, and I live, like you, in a cold area, so I thought I could keep a seed super clean in one of these while using the heat and light of the tank. More recently, it’s been full of aqua soil, growing some terrestrial plants out the top of my tank. I needed something to stop them from falling in. But I had to take it out again to fit in a new background I’m working on (subwassertang on stainless steel screen). Someday, I guess I will gave to try blocking that little hole with silicone caulking. I still have a few lotus seeds left.

Your high lited hair looks better and better 👍👍🙂❗️

Big yes on everything.

I want as much literature on anything aquariums as i can. I enjoy skimming through the books and magazines i have.

I will buy the glass container on Amazon ??

A very unique show about collecting fishy things. I would keeps four of the five items.

Off topic. Your hair is pretty with the highlights.

Yes, yes, yes, no, no. I don’t collect a lot of little paper collectable items especially since I would worry about damaging them, my dog also has a habit of taking stuff he isn’t supposed to have and shredding it, but I do collect little animal figurines and some nice mugs that I use but those aren’t usually old, rare or expensive so I don’t worry about accidentally destroying something historical or irreplaceable or expensive if I’m clumsy and break one, so I wouldn’t really have a lot of use for the last two items. I should probably get a few of something similar to the glass plant pots, I just ordered a rooted aquarium plant and I don’t think it would do well if I put it directly in the substrate since I plan on upgrading my tank soon and I’d need to move it then anyways, also I use a lot of leaves in my tank so I’d worry about it getting buried under them and not getting enough light, if I had a second one it would also be pretty useful for using to feed the fish and for using to pour the water into to reduce kicking up the leaf litter during water changes. The double sided tape would be especially useful for sticking some Mylar onto a diy lampshade reflector I want to make soon for my led aquarium plant light bars, because I think the lights need better side shielding to reduce my migraines, the light at the moment reflects back upwards and sideways from the clear lid and seems to stab into my eyes instead of all going through the clear lid and growing algae for my shrimp like it’s supposed to be doing. I also buy things I already have in different colours, sizes, or shapes, especially if the ones I already have won’t do for the new purposes for one reason or another that I want to use them for, extra air stones are also very useful to have on hand in different sizes shapes colours and bubble fineness’s. I hope I answered the question that was asked at the beginning of the video with what I said because I don’t remember what it was anymore.

Amazing ...like ALWAYS!! LUCKY MAN 😊 LOVE THE VINTAGE STUFF

How long have you had it? Or more to the point, how long have you had it in use? I only ask because, other than Fluval, nobody seems to make a suction cup that lasts more than a few months. I'd hate to have them fail in OR out of the tank. Otherwise, I love it. I could keep plants to pull nitrates from the water column without the risk of my fish destroying them.

I wouldn't use it. Eventually, the suction cups will fail, and it'll be broken.

I get it! I would buy them all! loving your hair!

What is the Brand on the background tape strips ? It doesn’t say on the front of the package . Please. I could use some of those handy things 😊

#1 ordered. Looked repeatedly at these; you pushed me over the buy edge today. #2 you can’t have too many! #3 huh. The wheels are spinning. #4 would definitely look at it; wouldn’t buy. #5. Just you. 😂😂😂 Enjoyed this video!!

I like your hair this way

💚💚💙💙😊

Girl! Don’t even give me more ideas. Lol My husband will kill me. Now I have to have a shelf above my tank with fish tchotchkes. Hehe It was my evil plan all a long now I can just blame it on you lol jk Love watching your videos. Keep up the great content. It’s always interesting.

The stems on the glass pots break so ridiculously easy. I had a dozen of them from a few different brands and got sick of them breaking so I made my own version of a plant holder using my 3d printer. No glass stems, no suction cups, no worries.

22g? That sounds like a weird size. Whats the footprint if you don't mind? I rewound thinking i misheard you the first time 🤣 Looking forward to tonight's live. Hope you had a wonderful Easter.
