This video is a must see for any organic gardener. Ps cool hair love the color i grew up skateboarding so i have had many different colors of hair in the past 👍 back to the video very informative and clear and to the point!!

I’m so glad I held off on doing planted tanks😩 moving with clawed frogs, a bullfrog and other fish cross country (again). Your plants are stressing me out making it more than your fish😂 for future movers I would strongly recommend NOT feeding your fish while they’re in the buckets.

I'm so glad i saw your video. I've done so many moves while in the army and then as a army spouse but never with my fish. I'm moving next month from AZ to MI and I feared my fish would die on the expected 7 day drive. I want to go slower and have more stops so i extended the travel time from 3 days to 7. I have been growing hornwort, val and some other plants in my tanks and plan to put them into medium large totes with sponge filters running off air pumps with 2 inches of my existing sand in bottom. ,The plants and sponge filters with sand should keep cycled water for the new house too. I even bought a smal car inverter and a battery pack system that runs off a solar panel i can put ion the dash for the trip to power my air pumps . I can use them for power outages and camping when i get to my retirement home. . My plan is almost identical to what you did so i feel so much better after watching your video. . Especially after your fish survived 2 months in those buckets/totes. I just need to google what type of water to buy on the road for top ups. Thanks again for posting this.

Videos talk about the physical differences but don’t talk about the plant resilience & ease of care : Green Pothos is willing to survive any horrible treatment from low light to root rot, hydroponics, no change of water for 5-8 months, 0 nutrition, stem rot damage but the plant still grows like nothing happened, cuttings root fast in 5 days in water, it accepts low light and also I saw a variegated Pothos in Saïgon ‘s burning afternoon sun. It’s impossible to kill. I saved 4 green Pothos cuttings about to die after the owner moved out and left them 4-5 months in abandonned flat, there was almost no more water in the glass, many were all rot, now they grow like crazy in low light. Very easy to propagate. On the other hand, I’ve just bought a immature Philodendron Lemon lime cutting where the roots are too weak : They can’t take overwatering, the roots rotted, the leaves are too thin and can’t stand the heat, easily look dehydrated, curling or wilting , they are dropping one after the other. I’m in Saïgon Vietnam where it’s 33-38°c everyday in April, an issue western vidéos from US won’t talk about : how indoor tropical plants do in hot tropical weather, high sunlight. Since the cutting root system is too juvenile, I have to nurse it indoors under A/C below 30°c and I’m not sure if ultimately it can stand the outdoor heat on balcony as I planned to plant them outside in a planter. It will be in shade low light but some hot morning sun rays can reach and burn. So that’s a problem if it cannot take few Sunrays. After 10 days the cuttings are barely rooting. Philodendron looks better than Pothos but I’m bored. Micans seems more tolerant but Lemon lime is too finicky. So that’s another thing to take in consideration

Thank you for taking the time to make this video. Very informative!! I'm going to go buy a coffee grinder now and try it myself

During the trip did you do any water changes?

What fish are those they are beautiful

Why is the face blurred

I've got a few notes that might help you or anyone who watches this video. 1. Minor correction, you made calcium acetate, not calcium phosphate. Calcium phosphate would be if you used phosphoric acid. 2. You can use oyster shell flour instead of eggshells if you don't want to hoard, wash out, bake, and grind eggshells. 3. You can speed up the process a lot if you use higher concentration acetic acid. Vinegar is just 5%, using 20% will make it way faster. You'll want to use 1/4 the amount. You'll probably have to buy that online though, so it's a little less convenient. 4. You can also speed up the process a ton if you add some heat. I use a hotplate but the stove would work just fine too, providing there's adequate ventilation because otherwise you'll stink up the house with strong vinegar fumes, which would he unpleasant for a few reasons. Apply heat and stirring for about an hour or so then allow to react for 24 hours, filter, done. A day or two instead of 3 weeks. If you get the ratios right it will have a neutral pH too. It's usually best to use a slight excess of shells. You can even do a big bulk batch of calcium acetate and then allow the liquid to evaporate either on it's own or by putting on low heat to speed it up, then you'll be left with solid, water soluble calcium acetate that stores indefinitely and can be either directly put in with your nutes, or you can still use it to make liquid CalMag.

how do you keep the aquatic plants alive?

Is this recipe for aquarium snails or land snails? Or both?

Can i add ground egg shells for my calcium?

Even to a newbie, it should be easy to tell the difference. Just look at the stems

can I also use grounded coffee and do I need to use a vinegar base?

Thank you for this video!! I have been getting worried about moving our 4 fish tanks(1 75g and 3 other smaller tanks) and I'm in California rn stationed on camp pendleton and I'll be doing dmo like you guys did! Haha. This makes me feel much better about moving the fish myself 😂😂 hopefully the fishies got a new home tank and are doing well!

awesome

I bought a micans starter plant on Etsy and it said freaking Micans so I ordered two for 25 it even had the starter plant pictures shown and I got was was pictured (I’m new to the plant community) and I bought another Micah’s from another seller and they look REALLY different so here I am lol

Omg and a black ghost knife fish! Is that my tank or yours 😂

Hey you have golden dojo loaches too! I love them so much

Or you can just melt dolomite garden lime in water and forego waiting 3 weeks for the eggshell mocha latte. You'll have to strain it just like the eggshells if you plan on using a sprayer.

Love it! I never shy from a good Snello recipe. I made one with veggies I boiled & pureed, then I added knox, calcium carbonate, and bloodworms. Another one I made similarly, but with Repashy Soilent Green instead of the boiled veggies. For the recipe you shared here, I'd opt for something that does not contain spinach, since spinach, when consumed, prevents calcium absorption. If you google that phrase "spinach prevents calcium absorption" you'll find some info on that. Love the simplicity of using the plastic bag. Some people make their snello completely in the plastic bag, freeze it, then break off pieces. But let's face it. The hearts are cuter! I recently got silicone ice cube molds that make LITTLE 1 cm. ice cubes, and I'm going to make some Snello in those. I have found that the candy molds I have on hand are too big. The snails can consume it, but it is too big a quantity for the shrimp tank and I have to either thaw it then cut it, or put the whole chunk in and then turkey baster it out in a little while after they lose interest.

How long the mixture lasts? Thnx great video

I made snello , my snails don’t eat it much. They would never eat all of it. They nibbled on it and that’s all

Thanks! I spit coffee out of my mouth when you said Mocha latte LOL. Thanks for the vid!

I have a golden dojo loach and I wasn’t thinking nor knew that had to be in a 55g and now he’s grown to the size of a beef stick and his back is BADLY Curved… is there anything I can do?

Thank you for the video!!! I was about to buy a lemon lime philodendron instead of the neon pothos I was looking for.

Thanks for receipe, will try with my fish :)

Could you also make snello like how you would jello? With two parts hot water and one part cold? I have calcium blocks that I'm going to grind up, as well as algae pellets and snail pellets, also some blanched veggies. So I was wondering if I were to do the regular jello method, if I could just grind up the food and mix the powdered food inside the snello mixture? Edit: forgot to add this but I found a mystery snail egg cluster in my tank, so I have mommy fever and want to make snello an easy way. This way is super easy, so I'm going to look into getting food molds, I was just wondering if my mind is in the right spot for the method I offered?

Micans is poor's man Melanochrysum 🤣🤣🤣 They are both cool.

I just made this. I used 3 jars of the same baby food. 3 Tbl calcium, 2 Tablespoons of Repashy Soilent Green, and my mystery snails are not interested. Can someone help ?

I got goldfish bend spine I try he live two yrs died

Was this video made by terrorists?

I have a philodendron burgundy. However, it's mostly green with little variegation. Is this type of philodendron plant safe for dogs?

Hi, do you know if "Calcium Carbonate" can be used as Calcium Powder? Or are they the same thing?

Your car is a can?

Very informative thank you.👍

I have to ask why do you block out your face??

What’s up with your face? I’ve never seen a video we’re the tuber blurs there face.

Thanks for this recipe! My Mystery Snails gobbled it up! Time to make more.

Fantastic video....thanks a bunch :)

I'm curious why you don't catch the bubbles from the vinegar eggshell reaction 🤔 .. thank you for posting this !!!

Awesome video! I tried making snello but it keeps floating…. How do you get yours to sink right away?

Very nice video. I was inspired and bought the products you recommended. I bought mini heart molds as well as mini fish molds! So cute! I’ve been worried about what to feed my Margarita snails after they nicely cleaned the algae off the tank glass in just a couple of days.

why are you blurring your face? did you do some unfavorable internet videos and you don't want anyone to recognize you?? lol

I adore dojos and have 6 of my own 🥰

Instead of using unflavored gelatin, could I use agar agar?

I just got a baby one for 20 so we’ll see when it gets here if it’s worth the hype. Even if it stays burgundy I’ll be happy it’s a beautiful color,but I’m def gonna try turning it back to pink

I’ve been a plant lady for a very long time,over 20 years,and seeing these prices are fkn crazy. I would love to find a trading community where you pay your shipping costs and that’s it. I don’t have many “fancy” plants but the ones I do have are very healthy and would make someone happy. Your face didn’t bother me I just focused on the plants anyway 😂 new sub is here!!

All those white leaves will die so you’re crazy to spent that much money on something that’s not gonna make it ☹️

I think I heard a police 🚔 siren
