How to achieve a CRYSTAL CLEAR aquarium | Filtration systems for Goldfish

[@Pushkar1506]

Please make a complete set up video of your tank with explaining the best filters that you use

[@AquaticElements]

Already made one, here you go 😄 kzbin.info/www/bejne/mGSWiKeNd7qYn6csi=mpr12VMGj2C9IGlv

My favorite for crystal clear water is ozone. Ozone combines the benefits of active carbon and UVC lights. But you need to handle it with caution

[@AquaticElements]

Yes ozone is great! But as you say, it needs to be used very carefully

Hello sorry your aquarium is really fantastic. Where do you buy the fish? I have had several problems with orandas due to kidney failure and dropsy. I think they are quite delicate fish. I thought that varieties such as ryukin or fantail are more resistant than orandas. I noticed that the higher the fish are of high genealogy the more delicate they are, I was wondering if my deduction was true. Thanks in advance

[@AquaticElements]

Hey, yes I would totally agree with you there. Generally the higher the price, the harder they are to keep. I don't have them anymore but ryukin and longer bodied oranda seem to be quite hardy compared to other varieties. Thank you

Hi Chris , your aquarium and goldfish are looking fantastic as per usual. I agree with you regarding alfa grog . I have read studies that cite its ability to hold vast amounts of bacteria. I wonder what is your take on under gravel filters ? 😊

[@AquaticElements]

I personally am not a huge fan of under gravel, due to the difficulties cleaning them. Leaving dirt and detritus to break down over long periods in an aquarium feels wrong to me, unfortunately.

[@suzannemoran7281]

I understand what you mean. I like the sump idea the best. UGF are difficult to clean. Some fish owners never clean them ever and seem to have success from what they tell us. But I prefer the look of your aquarium.😊

[@panalakia]

@@AquaticElements they are not meant to be cleaned in a regular basis l. the detritus is broken down to inert beneficial stuff. Research was done and shown that they compare closest to canister filters. Aquarium science has a breakdown and stats in this. Yes sump is the best. But canisters and UGF are next best. I think people don’t understand how they work most info on them are inaccurate

1 advice, use potassium permanganate solution, dosage 1gm/1000 litres every week, been using for last 6 months myself works like magic makes the fishes super active nd hungry...

[@SauravsFishkeeping]

Very bad idea, it kills all beneficial bacteria along.

How often do you do a waterchange and what % thank you

[@AquaticElements]

40% Once a week 😁

Oranda

I've got 4x Fancy gold fish in a 180L tank, Fluval 207 canister filter, regularly change out the polishing pads and carbon at least once a month as well as change out water twice a week. Water is always crystal clear. Not rocket science lol. Cannot comment on larger tanks.

[@AquaticElements]

Awesome!
