Hi Gil, what I like about your videos is that you do things in a very practical way and give sensible tips on helping us save money. Some of your ideas are pure genius so thanks for sharing them mate. That log was mahoosive but looks impressive in that tank. I love natural looking tanks and this tank looks awesome. Thanks to you I'm looking into making my own under gravel filter system or plenum for anoxic filtration, but using a power head running around at 20 gallons per hour. I've also been watching Kevin on The aquarium specialist channel. Interesting stuff. I'm looking to set up my first tank in over 25 yrs after much research. Starting off with a Juwel lido 120 for the kitchen then if all goes well I'll get the Juwel rio 450 for our living room 😁

This is a stunning rio Negro setup Gil! I love that log and lighting solution is soo innovative. P.leopardus are great plecos. I used to have one years ago. One trick to lure them out of their logs is adding substantially more flow, such as by wavemaker. They live in high current in the wild, and they will most likely come out to hang out in areas with strong flow. It works with all pseudacanthicus plecos. Good suggestions for more fish would be cardinal and rummynose tetras. both are from rio Negro and both share the same habitats with L600 (also can handle flow).
@Gilsfishroom
@Gilsfishroom 2 ай бұрын
Thanks. I will add more flow and see if that makes them more comfortable. I was tossing up between rummynose and Cardinals, but I suppose I could go both. Did you happen to notice that handsome guy on the TV when I was adjusting the floodlight?

That turned out great! That enormous log looks right at home in the tank and those are some really cool looking plecos, too! The lights look great, glad you went with the brown glass, I think it gives a warmer look than the green. Suggestions for tetras you might like for blackwater: yellow tail Congo, lampeye Congo (pricey, but stunning looking), Cardinal, green neon, hummingbird, Columbian, etc. I think all those are shoaling but the green neons and hummingbirds are true schoolers if I'm not mistaken. Cochu Blue tetras might like blackwater, but I don't know off the top of my head. Anyway, I like leaving likes, so I did. Nice job! 🙂👍

Dear Gil: I really like the look, of this tank, with only one species, schooling, in the water column. I keep trying to set up a “species tank,” but always end up ruining that, by adding additional species. As the “plecos” stay hidden, I’d suggest keeping only black neon tetra (Hyphessobrycon herbertaxelrodi), with them. I’d love to see this tank, with aquatic flora. You can wrap compost, in brown paper, and stick it, into the substrate. That will provide nutrients, for aquatic plants. The brown paper will decompose. As long as there is no glue or toner; it will be aquarium-safe. Thank you for sharing this, terrific build. It encourages me to hack more, in my hobby. All my best, Sincerely, E. J. Brinegar

​@@Gilsfishroomusually the people that are asking about what's safe for aquatic creatures have always struck me as the people that are better off owning cats and dogs. Hopefully you are enjoying your newest creation and every time you get a glimpse of the shimmering water that has the black neons always feeling that safety in numbers is great but combined with the high quality living conditions just can't be beat and the luckiest Plecos eventually will start doing what they do but outside on your gargantuan piece of driftwood so they can also be looking at you . Yes this video has it all that anyone would ever need , and with a few more ________________that shouldn't be too hard for someone who knows a guy who has a few people who have exactly whatever you want to get and like so many that have had green neons 😎 , hopefully one day you'll know too but I will make my suggestion and you will be amazed by the way they are not just hanging out hoping to fly after a fly which is just the best but once they're settled in they'll be swimming around with the rest , and protecting their area and that's why I love the Pygmy Hatchet fish and coming up on 2 years in my 75 gallon tank ( w / a lid ) started with 6 and then I went back and got 7 more !!!🍀💙
