Goldfish Planted Aquarium (No CO2) & 5 Months After

[@andrewgoldfish]

Awesome looking tank. My 125 had lots of plants like that, but after a year or so the goldfish pulled up everything but the Amazon swords and anubias that was attached to driftwood.

[@majesticcichlids1630]

Beautifully done aquascape, I am so tempted to do a planted setup on my 4ft tank

[@susanko3645]

I’m glad you put a good amount of gravel so the beneficial bacteria could grow

[@littlewigglemonster7691]

Dirt and sand be much better

[@LeeDfined]

Less than a minute in and I hit the subscribe button. I currently have two baby Comets in a "latch key" 29 Gallon that looks like a toy compared to this tank. But I love seeing the creative process.

[@meggrotte4760]

Super beautiful and judging by those plants it looks like you just put a small amount of aquarium soil for the plants themselves it's a great idea keeps the soil from getting too messy

[@FlameGourami]

Yeah cause my experience with goldfish and aquasoil, they tried to nibble the aquasoil making the water murky

[@Angelfishkeeper98]

absolutely beautiful aquarium mate

[@Fumango]

Curious did the plants survive? If so which plants, thanks!

[@FlameGourami]

Yes, same plants in the desrciption box, it was only the Vallisneria which didn't survive. Everything else is more lush now, Ambulla is the fastest growing. I am uploading an update soon

[@meggrotte4760]

Definitely try any kind of anubius nothing kills that plant

[@sheepfoemambo]

@@meggrotte4760 My turtle did a good job of destroying it before I rescued it from her tank!

[@FlameGourami]

Try adjusting your light. The height from the surface of the water, the timing, and the brightness. It will help producing new leaves each day

[@kingston5885]

You just directly placed the plants WITH their containers inside ? I thoguht i need to take the plants out feom the little containers and just insert the roots in the substrates?

[@fjcs99]

What kind of fish are the small fish???

[@dejc2002]

Nice setup and more place for them. 👌Great job. Mine are swimming in a pond, from April until October.

[@uditghosh2093]

Can you tell me what lights are these?

[@sheenadurham7392]

What filtration do you have,as it's hard to see?

[@invisdev]

Great aquarium, lucky fish!

[@dennisle8225]

Hi, Nice simple setup with the gold fish, but the gold fish let go a lot poo , how do you manage it ? Please advice

[@J_is-new]

What is the tank size

[@Wanderingfoodies]

Dont they eat your floaters?

[@muhammadtayyab9250]

Can I put this goldfish in planted tank with other fishes

[@gabrielblakeproductions8537]

Love it. Have you had trouble with the goldfish eating the plants at all?

[@FlameGourami]

They try to pull but not eat the leaves from all the plants, specially the Ambulla, but since the plants have rooted well (3 months) before I moved the goldfishes, plants doesn't go bare and is growing more leaves than those pulled out by the fishes

[@diofryhparantar3982]

In this set-up do you still water change sometimes?

[@simasaha8721]

Please tell me the plant name which was floating

[@FlameGourami]

Frogbits - they grow so easily, you just need to raise the light by 20cm from the surface

[@meggrotte4760]

Wow that's absolutely stunning and you know if you had some more plans like in the back to kind of go on the other side it would be great too that's a wonderful thing

[@pizzadepasta802]

What type of light are you using

[@faheemysyaqireen2401]

What kind of filter that you used on this tank?

[@FlameGourami]

I am using a Canister Filter - Eheim Classic 250 on this

[@faheemysyaqireen2401]

@@FlameGourami Did you fertilize all of your plants?

[@FlameGourami]

Yes, I added root tabs on the first month and use liquid fertilizer seachem flourish weekly

[@SplattyVR4]

What kind of goldfish are these? I like the long fins

[@nanolist7502]

fan tail orange and oranda white

[@zenchemist]

So you only put the plant soil in pockets around the rocks? And then planted the plants in it? Do you use a gravel vac? And what size is your tank?? Thanks

[@FlameGourami]

Initially my plan is to plant on areas with aquasoil only, but the cuttings I just stick them into the gravel without soil and they are surviving. I use a gravel vacuum, it is actually part the next video I will upload this weekend. And finally my tank is 4ft width x 2ft height x 1.5ft depth

[@troydersonpoerwondo33]

Beautiful fish, what are you feeding them and how often? They grew really well , mines are growing very slowly ;(

[@Naspletan]

They dont eat the plant?

[@tyler8322]

How many gallons is the tank? A 4ft tank can be 55, 75, 90, or 120 gallons.

[@FlameGourami]

Not much, this is a 180 litres, about 50 gallons tank

[@lawg2909]

What is the update on this tank? Did the plants lived? Or how long before they melt? Lol. Just really curious. I cant make my plants live long. I dont use co2, so i am thinking maybe that's why

[@139Mali]

My comets eat all plants. Even anubias. I bought for them a new tank with 240l, but still don't know what plants will survive with them😑

[@susanko3645]

Great job!

[@chicken_Tender978]

Love the tank I’m getting a 500 litre tank custom made and going to put gold fish what plants do you think I should put and recommend because I’m putting gold fish like you would help if you replied

[@FlameGourami]

Oh wow that's a big tank! I want to see that when it's done. Based on my experience, Hygrophila, Rotala, Java Fern, Anubias and Moss (Java, Christmas or Peacock) are the hardy plants with Goldfish and are thriving well even during summer, when the Goldfish are very active and chasing each other. During colder months, I have no problem with the other plants like the Ambulla which has grown so lush.

[@chicken_Tender978]

@@FlameGourami Yeah I’ll post a video on my yt but it’s still in planning I’m figuring out the dimensions so I can summit it then I get the tank and then I’ll get ready for the fish with cycling and more

[@enerhtac6654]

Do you have to wait until after 3months to put the Goldfish in?

[@FlameGourami]

Yes I want to make sure the plants have rooted well, but I think 1 month should be ok.

[@enerhtac6654]

Thank you!

[@serenitydemello376]

Also real question, what brand of small pebbles are those? They look very dull edged (which Is perfect) and I love the coloration!

[@FlameGourami]

You can see the brand in 0:36 of the video, I used 5 bags for my tank

[@serenitydemello376]

Cant find it on amazon, hopefully our larger town 180 miles away will have it somewhere, I live in a small town without much access to quality aquarium supplies sadly

[@FlameGourami]

@@serenitydemello376 that's sad, but you know, you can also buy natural pebbles and rocks from landscaping supplies, and they are a lot cheaper! The rocks I used are landscaping rocks, that I washed thoroughly for a week.

[@ecofreakexplorer9719]

will try this setup did you find out why vallasnaria were dying please share your experience kind regards ❤

[@FlameGourami]

I think it was because it can't handle the current of the water

[@shun8290]

No filter?

[@rprimeauableful]

I want to see how you’re doing your lights

[@FlameGourami]

Hi, i am using an LED light 6 inches above water surface, on automatic timer. Light is on 7 hours daily. It was trial and error for me at the start, with height, duration and brightness

[@soknatiti3740]

So beautiful tank

[@optimumvlogs1304]

Nice setup 👍👍

[@fishhubtv8574]

nice set up

[@nadeemahmed4019]

Which light to use sir

[@FlameGourami]

Hi, I am using a 5 colour, 156 LED light I got online. It has 2 brightness modes, I use the low level brightness if I see signs of algae

[@Ann__333]

What size is this tank?

[@FlameGourami]

It's 120 x 44 x 36cm

[@cybermenindia]

Such unprecedented growth ?

[@FlameGourami]

Actually yes, I am happy with the result, didn't expect it to be this lush

[@somdov]

Did you find the plants in the description of this video survived the goldfish after some time? I'm looking for a good list that won't get eaten :) EDIT: Nevermind just seen all your other comment answers

[@JonalynP]

I want that kind of setup but my fishes they eat the leaves.

[@FlameGourami]

Hi, Which plants and fish do you have? I can suggest Java Fern, Anubias Hygrophila and Rotala, these are doing well with my goldfishes.

[@smf00027]

Aren’t goldfish eat plants?

[@FlameGourami]

I am surprised they didn't, but they tend to pull the plants. I'll upload an update with overgrown plants.

[@chicken_Tender978]

Where did you get your goldfish btw they look awesome

[@FlameGourami]

Thanks, they are around 2.5 yrs now, I got them from a shop called PetBarn. I think the plants make them more healthy

[@chicken_Tender978]

@@FlameGourami ok thanks a lot I have a pet barn near me I know where to get them now

[@sheenadurham7392]

Mayb carefully that the goldfish don't swallow the gravel,it has been known that they do

[@serenitydemello376]

Lmao is no one going to talk about the entire school of fish they seemingly ate? All for live foods but it was just so nonchalant 😂😂

[@FlameGourami]

The zebra danios got jealous of the Goldfish and attacked them, glad the goldfish can defend themselves LOL! No, but there were 7 I was able to save and move into my nano tank, you can see that in my other video

[@SurajRoy]

But everyone says ... gold fish eat plant .. so ???

[@skrskrskrr5033]

They do but if you have fast growing plants they usually grow faster than fish can eat. Or go with anubia they completly avoid it in my tank

[@100bgeagle]

Don't the goldfish ravage your plants?

[@FlameGourami]

They do, but because plants have rooted well before I added the goldfish, plants are growing faster than what the goldfish can pull, thanks to my LED light too, auto-on for 8hours a day

Hi, Ambulla seems to be leaner this summer but the rest are doing well, it's been 5 months with the Goldfishes now. You can check in my recent video kzbin.info/www/bejne/enmVgKOGarOqprc

[@ChristopherLecky]

Need want and desire what cant not be removed,,, what takes no effort to obtain what can not be corrupted or lost and what has no conditions attached because absolutely everything else is momentum towards building your own jail sentence similarly to humanities effort to scale up our population before obtaining the correct position and stance to do so with consequence,,,,, once you go down that road it will define what can be achieved and what cant there after.....! We now have an absolutely huge population at the wrong end of a global dynamic contraction having taken the wrong steps historically during that time meaning even our best efforts will not be significant enough fast enough to have the scale of impact required to be effective because our collective demands of this planet are simply to large....! If countries are now avoiding their climate agreements to reduce carbon emissions this is the main reason why.....!
