Dustin's Fishtanks has one of the greatest Dirted / cheap aquarium vids of all time on here. That vid got me back into aquariums. For everyone asking for Liquid C02 (Like Flourish Excel) vs CO2 or no CO2, I don't actually believe Liquid Carbon works quite how it is advertised. What I find is that, the Liquid Carbon doesn't really help with actual CO2 supply, but when dosed evenly and daily / semi-daily it eradicates any algae buildup on the leaves of the plants which allows them to photosynthesize at peak efficiency. Not the visible algae only. The microscopic things we can't see with the naked eye. This is why some scapers still use excel even if they have a CO2 system running. You get the benefits of CO2 with the additional benefits of peak energy consumption -> growth output. As far as dirt goes, I love dirt. My first scaped tank back in the game was organic potting soil, sifted, baked, and mixed with a little bit of quartz so it wouldn't compact. That tank ran for 15 months before I tore it down. Clean as a whistle without any nutrient spikes. Just make sure you cap it heavily.
@CorvusNare3 жыл бұрын
For the dirt experiment make sure you get some soil with actual dirt in it, where I am a lot of what's labeled as potting soil has very little actual soil in it and is about 60 percent plant matter, like bark mulch or wood chips or peat moss, stuff that will just end up rotting away and probably releasing a ton of unwanted nutrients into the water. Oh also I loved watching this experiment, its gone a long way to convincing me to try some co2 in my tanks.

A very good idea, done correctly! I am one of those people that start a new hobby by becoming totally immersed (pun intended) in the subject. The CO2/Non-CO2 idea has always intrigued me and I have been in two minds. To actually see the difference in front of my eyes is invaluable data. Should I high tech or low tech? You put forward an impartial view of the tanks and left it up to the viewer to decide what was working and what wasn't. I really appreciate this kind of unbiased - science based - attitude. Personally, I now can see that I will take the jump (dive?) into a CO2 setup (the development of the 'Monte Carlo' was the clincher). Much appreciated!!

CO2 definitely turbo-charges plant growth. I think this experiment demonstrated how powerful it can be. However, I worry that beginners will see this and think you can't have nice plants without CO2 and that you'll be mired in algae all the time. To give a NO-CO2 setup the best chance the other parameters need to be optimized for it. In practice I think that means good air exchange with an airstone, lower nutrients from the soil, a lot of fish to produce CO2 and nutrients for the plants, and lower lighting to keep algae growth down especially at the beginning. Once algae begins to grow on the leaves of the plants they are in a lot of trouble because they have no way to clean it off and they get starved of light. I think a really beautiful, well-balanced NO-CO2 planted tank can be achieved. It just takes a lot of patience and experience to learn about how to keep the parameters optimized for slower plant growth.

I set up a 100 gallon tank with a dirted substrate capped with gravel. I would have preferred to use some sort of aquasoil but due to my location it was prohibitively expensive. I have pressurised CO2 injection and Fluval 3.0 planted lights, Fluval 406 canister filter and also additional power head just for circulation. All of my plants are relatively easy plants, Amazon Swords, Anubias, Java fern, mosses and three varieties of Crypts, a few stems and floaters. I use liquid fertiliser sporadically. The plant growth has been awesome, some more than others. The Java fern has only increased slightly in a year whereas the Amazon Swords and Crypts have increased by a huge margin - and herein lies the problem. The Crypys have increased and expanded towards the front of the tank and now fill all of the space; they have formed a crypt carpet. It is virtually impossible to pull them out because the roots are so well developed they want to come out as a complete mat. On the odd occasion where I do manage to pull one out the roots bring all the dirt with them and it gets spread all round the tank.

I stopped using CO2, I combined it with easycarbo and the plants just grew to hard haha. But After a while without CO2 and Easycarbo I got algea outbrakes. And since a few weeks I'm using Easycarbo again and that makes a huge difference. The plants do grow now again but not that extreme and they look perfect. The stemplants now have very fine leaves and look better then when I used CO2. And the montecarlo needs some more time but you can now see a lot of roots coming out so that will take of aswell. And also most of the algea is gone now. So having a planted tank without CO2 is possible, but adding something like easycarbo will help bigtime.

Your channel made me start adding CO2 in my tanks and I loved it. Sadly, diy CO2 is quite troublesome: everytime I refill mine, I have to deal with a different problem. Sometimes it doesn't want to start up, or the pressure doesn't build up, or does it too much and the CO2 rate skyrockets. I haven't added any fauna to the aquarium in fear of these problems causing any damage to them. So now I'm saving some money to buy a proper pressurized CO2 system. It's expensive, but at least it seems safer to use with fish!

I can recommend the reactor kit shown in this video as a cheap but reliable and safe alternative. You add baking soda, citric acid and water which reacts and produces pressurized CO2. It comes with a solenoid on the bubble counter which can be controlled to come on and off via a timer. I've just refilled mine for the second time. The cost for the baking soda (350g) and citric acid (400g) was about 5 euros and the gauge is showing 36kg of pressurized CO2! Which will last about 4 months at the rate I'm injecting it. This system isn't super advanced by any means but provides CO2 for a very reasonable cost when you consider the full kit costs about 100 euros. Mark has a video on his channel about the kit.

The major tip for the dirted tank is using fast growing plants . Plants like water Wisteria will do the best in the tank because they are very heavy root feeders . If you don't plant a lot of plants at the start the algae will be a huge problem ! So get some heavy heavy root feeders and some decent water column feeders as well and you should be good to go! Plant suggestions would be echinodorus tenellarus (Carpetting plant that has a pinkish hue in my tank without CO2) , Water Wisteria , Hygrophila , Micro Sword . You have to keep some floating plants in the tank , they are going to help a lot! Salvinia , red root floaters whatever it is just keep them !

@williammcdowell62573 жыл бұрын
Dirted (potting compost under a layer of gravel) tanks and tanks with aqua soil are really in my experience not that biological different. They both use soil for macro and micro nutrients and both benefit from a small amount of CO2 generated by decomposition - adding perhaps 5 ppm to the water (that figure is a guesstimate I concede). In very hard water my experience is also that for an algae free tank with a good range of plants, injected CO2 is absolutely essential. In both dirted, with aqua soil or even tanks with sand or gravel with injected CO2 plants grow well. With sand or gravel water column fertilisation can largely compensate for a neutral and inert and inorganic substrate. Decomposition in dirted tanks, i.e. soil capped with gravel, generates only modest amounts of CO2 (even Walstad admits that in her book) but this is enough in soft and moderately hard water for a range of easier to grow true marginals, Vallis, Hornwort, Egeria, take a look at Foo the Flowerhead's dirted tank and how Hornwort became dominant relatively quickly. You will also be able to grow Duckweed since it takes CO2 from the atmosphere. Hard water tanks, dirted or not, regardless of CO2 also need high light levels if a range of plants are to be successfully grown. Live stock (fish, snails and shrimps) do not generate meaningful amounts of CO2 in terms of meeting the needs of plant photosynthesis (but they dump plenty of macro nutrients in the water), the living bacteria in the filter and in the substrate do generate meaningful amounts of CO2 but not enough for the luscious style of ornamental tank we normally aspire to. In a natural pond the deep mud in the middle where the water is deep and there are no plants, CO2 is created by bacteria to feed the aquatic plants in the shallows with CO2, this is where rooted plants can grow to reach the light, few aquatic plants can grow much more than two metres in height, but many can spread far wider than than once they hit the surface. Best wishes, keep enjoying the hobby.

With usualy "cleanup crew" I got no major issues apart of weird moments realising that some plants you expected to thrive well in these conditions, do not and ones you bought since you like them actualy love your tank. I don't complain tbh. All in all, my tips are some for of easy carbo lowers algae growth (I got decent sunlight on my tank which is not avoidable) and don't overstock. Amano shrimps are a must. They are hardy and work around o'clock. Bonus is cash saving on CO2 a but do expect more often chemistry monitor for ammonia spikes.

Your my favorite aquascaping KZbinr. But anyways. I have the same exact co2 system you have with citric acid n baking soda. And I swear, I have absolutely 0 growth on my dwarf tears. It's been about 2-3 weeks now. Prior I had 3 pots of monte carlo, and 2 pots of dwarf tears. All of them died due to my massive snail uprooting them. But even with that said. Literally all of them died. And as of now. I can see my dwarf tears atm dying off slowly. Feels bad man. Any thoughts?

Also. I do have a drop checker. It's always green if not light green. So I know I'm injecting enough co2. I also follow your rule about when to turn on co2 and lights. And when to turn off. I also use simple green all in one fertilizer.

Actually the next experiment will be more interesting if u will compare aquasoil with sand bro . Good job for this as well

Another idea is to compare tank with activ soil vs garden soil (with sand cover).
