Your videos are a breath of fresh air. I've been out of the hobby for a decade at least and thinking about getting back in is intimidating.

Knocked it outta the park with another great informative video matey...agree X7. Not many videos talk about pH and keeping it stable, i.e., not chasing a value, which is very important as it stresses fish out and causes problems. π

Love these videos, just stocked my first ever tank today off the back of your videos. Aquascaped and planted it and now Iβve added: neon tetras, corys, one Pleco, cherry shrimp and nerite snails. Loving watching them get to know their new home! Keep up the good work!

First video Iβve watched of yours and itβs great. Making another tank for my fish and having some problems with the floating live plants. I will definitely have to get more substrate but in the mean time thinking about what I can do to keep the plants down. Love the vid!

Good advice. My tip is to buy a tank that fits the type and number of fish you intend to keep or by the fish according to your tank size. I myself have had fish from 1967 in the States and for the past 40 years here in Israel. I have an L81 gold nugget pleco for 24 years so far and Australian rainbows for years. I've found things are simpler than many people in forums imagine. I tend to run more than one filter. Undergravel filters were considered the best for at least two decades. Everything you say about deep substrates was said about them. I personally have found no observable advantages in the use of any commercial chemical additives including dechlors. I have also found that there is no reason not to rinse sponges under the tap all at one time. Where I live, we've chlorine but no chloromine. I do bimonthly water changes. I don't have plants as I seldom have long term success with them.
