Oh my gosh, I adore these goldfish. Think the next big 5ank I do will have to be a goldfish tank.

[@MDFishTanks]

[@zafishguy5166]

I think adding a small powerhead with a foam guard that catches detritus helps keep a tank clear as I noticed with my reef until you clean it but take to long to take it out of the tank and a lot of detritus falls back into the tank

[@MDFishTanks]

Yes...

[@adaptiveparenting]

I kept 3 orandas in established planted 40-gallon breeder, with cryptocoryne, anubias and java moss... Java moss only lasted for several hours before got eaten. They uprooted cryptocoryne, even with its long roots! And they also like to swam all around into any crevices and successfully broke anubias leaves. So I'm very curious how do you prevent TRC to destroy or eat the plants?

Hi, friend. When will you make a video again with this species. Goldfish ranch? or lionchu? I hope you consider it. greetings from Mexico

[@carolinewong1225]

Hi! Just love your aquariums and your three ranchus especially! I live in thailand and goldfish keepers here are absolutely against planted tanks and even those with substrate, which is frustrating for me as I love some greenery in my tank. They think planted tanks and those with substrate create more chances of disease. Anyway, because my fish have been sick, I'm doing away with the substrate but still want to add plants. What types of plants would you recommend for a goldfish tank apart from anubias and java fern? Thanks!

[@michaellui74]

Are your plants root feeders? That may be a problem if you're not using tabs

[@MDFishTanks]

yes, rebecca is right, all my plants are attached the the rocks, they need nutrients from the water column. If you have planted root feeders, they will more than like die without a fertilised substrate

Good filtration and understock are the key for most clean tanks. Of course there are others: don't overfeed, water changes, take out debris, no direct sunlight, etc.

[@normcity1389]

On the set up video you had an AllPondSolutions filter, but in this one you have an Oase. Can you let me know why you swapped, and what the Oase model is?

[@SANFRAN]

5:23 I notice your canister tubes are greenish, is this algae? The reason why I'm asking is we had this problem as well and we weren't sure how bad it was for our tank. We did have a big algae problem and when we got a UV filter it cleared up the tank. After a while the tubes leading in and out of the canister filter are starting to clear up as well. We never did any cleaning to them. Any advice on this would be great. Should we clean the tubes? Do you leave yours green? The UV Light filter killed 70% of it, so should I just let the UV filter do the job? etc... Thanks

[@MDFishTanks]

No, they are just coloured green. Algae is a natural part of any tank. Learn to love it. A little bit is fine.

[@SANFRAN]

@@MDFishTanks Thanks! Yeah we have 2 Koi and 2 gold fish. LIttle bit different than most people, but everything is great now. Just nitrates get a little high here and there sometimes.
