Its wrong to fill the spaces of the dividers. No wonder you have reduced flow after 2 weeks. Eheim put the dividers there for a reason! To assure good flow! Even without reading instructions you should have known it’s a bad idea to put the floss media on the impeller space. Those dividers are there for a reason. I clean my eheim once a year, no flow reduction.

I just received a small culture recently. I split it between 2 similar sized containers, one with sponges and one with coco coir. I used a soldering iron to make holes and super glued nylon tea bag mesh over them. I’ve never done this before so I just want to see what works best for me. I placed a damp quarter of a piece of cat food in 3 days ago on mesh, there were some worms on them but the food wasn’t gone. I kind of smushed the food and spread it into a line with the worms. Going to check soon!

Thanks for your comment:) Cat/dog food work for some people, but not for me. I have relatively small cultures in small containers, so the worms never manage to eat all of these and the food ends up spoiling

Hi, I followed the video but it didn't worked well to me. The pump is now.making a noise. The seller checked it as it believes I could have lost a joint during the process but everything is in place. The rotor keeps making a noise and I don't understand what the reason could be, I'll have to clean it once again tomorrow as some dust could maybe fallen into the rotor cabinet. In the mean time if you've any idea I would be glad to get it. Thank you for your time on posting this video and eventually if you've an idea. Best regards

I have pencilfish jumping out occasionally. Corys will not jump as long as there are floating plants on surface and they sense where the waterline is

I have kept tank bred 'altum' which my local supplier said were from Germany. I kept them with wild altum and there are differences in physical characteristics. I suspect a lot of these so called f1 altum could be hybrid crosses with scalares/hybrids. I much prefer real wild altum from the atabapo or inirida tributaries.
@tropicalfishhub
@tropicalfishhub 19 күн бұрын
Reputable breeders will never mix altums and scalare. Besides, it is very difficult to cross-breed them as these are two different species that are genetically different. I've kept Altums and scalare in the same tank for years and they never showed any interest towards each other. I also do not see a reason in crossbreeding these two species

@@tropicalfishhub There was an article in PFK Aug 2010. I quote ...."according to expert Heiko Bleher, these fish were captive-bred by German Simon Forkel. They’re said to be a cross between a true Pterophyllum altum from the Rio Atabapo on the Colombia border and the Segrest line of "Rio Negro altums", which is P. scalare. Seen other called hybrids being sold online, but they are nothing remotely even like Altum.

I like your video it provides great insight into an alternative to bio media. I will say that I never used expensive media at the start of my fish keeping journey. Back then I used sponge filters and cheap ring media. I had planted tanks and all of them had high nitrate levels, around 40ppm maybe more. I watched a video from pondguru about biohome ultimate and decided to give it a try. In less than 3weeks I had 0 nitrates. I’m not saying it’s good or bad as I understand your point on plants need ammonia. I just wanted to add to the conversation. Thanks for the video
@tropicalfishhub
@tropicalfishhub Ай бұрын
Thanks for your comment. I'm surprised that your nitrates went from 40ppm to 0 in just 3 weeks! All that extra media does is providing more space for bacteria and considering that not all aerobic/anaerobic bacteria feed on nitrates, it is indeed unexpected. To be honest, 40ppm is a reasonable level of nitrates for a planted tank as much of it probably came from fertilizers

Hello. Sorry for posting on a 4 year old video but i must say this is my favorite tank of your youtube channel (and probably of whole of youtube). Im thinking of setting up something similar myself but im wondering about the lack of a lid. Are Altums prone to jumping out like Discus?
@tropicalfishhub
@tropicalfishhub Ай бұрын
Thank you! I am certainly missing that tank. Altums are not particularly jumpy if there are some floating plants and you leave some moonlight lights over night. I never had them jumping. As soon as they get used to their surroundings they are usually quite chill
