Why You NEED This Substrate | MD Fish Tanks

NEW MERCH CLICK HERE: teespring.com/...
If I had to say one reason why most of my tanks do well, it's because of this. I've had catastophic fails before when I've added too many nutrients to the substrate. I'm starting to get to a level now where i'm dialling right in to what works well for me 😊

[@tinksmith4964]

Ah ok so I’m new to this but what that sounded like was the 33% of everything but the soil should be capped to stop dirt and algae blooms. Just because every time I touch the water the bottom kicks up soooo much soil crap

[@curvingfyre6810]

If you're using a dirt layer, I recommend using as much as 2x cap as soil. That way you can comfortably plant *only* into the cap, without ever getting your tweezers into the dirt layer.

[@craigjenkins2462]

Have you ever used mesh bags to put soil in and then capped with sand?

[@saidwahnow]

Having looked at MD’s earliest videos, he was certainly copying foo for a boost in viewers. The videos with similarly titles to Foo’s have about 10x as many views as non-Foo titled videos. Despite that Foo should have said something years ago while this was taking place because it looks like MD has moved on. If not please link videos where MD is still copying and I’ll gladly recant my statement. So, it appears Foo got what he wanted.

[@MDFishTanks]

[@SA-hk8xj]

Been using organic dirt from hardware store, topped with laterite and/or aqua soil. Have a nano (7gallon) low tech, and a 30 gallon high tech with same substrate. Haven’t had any major issues w algae in either tank. Just have to refresh the substrate every 5 years or so as nutrients from substrate run low. The lights ARE the secret. Think of it as a car’s gas pedal. The more light the more gas you are giving your tank. If the nutrients and co2 don’t meet that lights output...u will hv issues. Obviously certain plants prefer the higher lights but may grow fine under lower lights as MD stated. Either way it’s kind of fun to try and balance the systems 👍😎

[@olivergraham117]

MD , I need your help and advice, I have a 120l tank and can’t keep plants they always die I need to correct advice and help from the best. Wish I could have you to design and send the correct stuff for my tank would be the best Thanks for all your great videos your tanks are unreal

I think Foo is stretching it. The titles are similar but there are only so many ways you can say low tech no fert no co2. The styles of the videos are completely different. And I don’t think anyone is confusing the two creators. I love Foo’s peaceful videos but MD is fun to watch in a different way. There’s room for everybody. Foo has a bigger channel. MD has more videos. I think it was a mountain out of a molehill and it makes Foo look a little foolish.

Hey! i know this is an older video, but i've been wondering if it's totally okay to have something like a black clay substrate (because I like the look) WITHOUT any substrate that has nutrients in it under it? just purely the clay balls? because the look i'm going for is like fully planted as green as possible, but i'm not sure if i can achieve it that way.

[@bornofhecate4698]

You need to give your plants SOME form of nutrients, and you can get some by dosing the water column but the root system is the most important. You should be able to get away with using root tabs for those if you are just using a decorative gravel, but you might not get the same results as a really nutrient rich soil/substrate underneath.

[@tylerclutts5778]

QUESTION, can i bag up eco complete and top with sand??

[@fredverkade1]

How can I have bubbles in my crushed lava underneath the sand? Is this oke?

[@feralon9570]

Keep treating Pumpkin and let nature do the rest, I had a betta that had swim bladder and it took 3 months before she could even move about the tank. As long as she is eating and pooping you should hopefully see slow progress. Sometimes it takes time for them to heal internally, swim bladder is nasty business. I only feed sinking pellets to my fish that are prone since I had three cases in 9 months with the bettas. I haven't had a single case since I switched to sinking pellet foods. (It avoids air gulping food at the surface)

[@tonyp8762]

Hey MD! I think she is doing the "death wobble". I am not saying she will pass soon but it could be an air bladder issue which is very difficult to resolve without taking the fish from water to perform a piercing if the bladder to let air out. If she is eating, try to give her some minced garlic or soak the food before in garlic water before feeding. I use this technique since a bad bout with ICH and it worked out great, 3 weeks of treatment(food soaked in garlic water everyday once a day) and once a week after forever. Garlic helps assist with a fish's internal performance as a whole, once a week and if it doesn't help, give her the best before it takes her over. God bless and good luck my friend.
