Ecosystem Fish Tank SETUP! (step-by-step)

In this video i set up an ecosystem fish tank, which long term should not only be an awesome looking aquascape, but should also be low maintenance! Thanks for watching!!! 😊

Hope you all enjoyed the video!! I think I know what fish I’m going to be adding.. but what fish do you think I should add?

[@jackanddan]

Lovely tank ginger…..we love our MTS’s….. some Galaxy rasboro would be awesome in there😀😀👍👍

[@GingerFishyOfficial]

Good suggestion.. I do like them little guys!! 😀

[@Khaeris]

Emerald eye rasboras maybe?

[@GingerFishyOfficial]

@@Khaeris that’s cool little fish! I think my water might be a bit too hard for it though.. ☹️

Great to see an under gravel filter being used 👍

[@GingerFishyOfficial]

It’s a classic.. simple yet effective!

Nicely done.. never tried spider wood

[@GingerFishyOfficial]

Thanks Stubbs!! Yeah, spider wood is one of my favourites, defo the best at not releasing tannins.. it does take a long time to become water logged though, so you do need to glue a bit of slate to the bottom of it to weight it down.. 😁

The tank looks great! A little school of Corys would be nice in there, I think, along with whatever other kinds you put in. Maybe some schooling types of nano fish? Thanks for the video!

[@GingerFishyOfficial]

Thank you! Defo thinking of some sort of schooling fish.. corys would fun aswell, especially as I’ve never kept them before!! 😀

Great tank. Aquasoil could have worked too. Also would help the plants grow better. Also you should put another rock infront of where the base of the wood sticks into the gravel. Would help create the effect that it is coming from the bank or something!

[@GingerFishyOfficial]

Yeah, I think I’m gonna try a planted tank using just aquasoil at some point, as I’ve never actually done that before. I think I’ve always been a bit paranoid about nutrients leaching off into the water column and causing algae.. and defo a good call on adding the rock, I was thinking the spider wood did look a a little unnatural where it’s just sticking in the gravel on the left there.. thanks for watching! 😊

[@GingerFishyOfficial]

[@GupPi_3.14]

Looks to be a diversa 112 tank boyu undergravel I could be wrong but always good to see budget friendly videos this day and age

[@GingerFishyOfficial]

@@GupPi_3.14 Yeah, that’s right.. you know your tanks! I got the diversa tank on eBay, the boyu under gravel filter on Amazon 👍

[@GupPi_3.14]

@@GingerFishyOfficial was thinking getting the same tank but was concerned about the quality and thin glass but looks good so might get one

[@GingerFishyOfficial]

Yeah, I’ve had that tank for a good 3/4 years now, with no problems.. I’ve also got a 160L that I’ve had no issues with either. 👍
