(New Setup) Volcano Filter Aquarium - YES filter, NO CO2, NO Ferts 7.6 Gallon Tank

This project started with a lava rock from a local rock yard back in June. It took so long to finish b/c I bought the rock without a plan, and I wasn’t sure if I could do this successfully. If the rock didn’t work out, the whole project would not have come to fruition. After the rock was drilled, I had to plan things out one by one, here and there, with a bit of procrastination, and that’s why this took nearly 3 months to finish. I also made the table that the tank is sitting on.

The tank was custom made at a local aquarium store. It’s a low iron 8mm thick glass.
One thing to mention is that the cap lava gravel is too big. Also, b/c the pump is moving the water around, the water column became brown very fast. First time filling up the tank, I waited 24 hours to see if the water would be clear enough to plant the plants. It was not. I did 100% water change, and waited another 24 hours. I repeated this process for around 10 days. So, that’s ten 100% water changes in 10 days until it was clear enough to plant the plants. This is the reason why I usually wait 24 hours after the very first fill. If the setup is all good, the water column shouldn’t be too brown and you can plant the plants. In this case, the cap gravel was too big, and the pump is located below the gravel so the organic soil leached out much quicker.
I don’t expect all of the plants to make it. I don’t know if the java moss can survive on the wet rock, either. I also know I shouldn’t have bought the expensive plants for a Walstad method tank, but I couldn’t help myself :)
I’ll update this tank in 2 months.
This is a Walstad Method tank.

I wouldn't say Ember Tetras. They are a mid-column fish. They might feel stressed out from the thin water level and they wouldn't be able to school in the same manner within such a set-up.

[@tylerbarrett5]

@@Helveteshit I dont think they'd be stressed as long as there is plenty of oxygen getting into the water they come from a river basin. I picked them because they're one of the smallest schooling fish and would bring alot of color to the aquarium. Otherwise i would have said neons or swordtails. Neons are literally everywhere and swordtails breed like crazy so they would quickly overrun that tank.

I gotta I as an aquarium owner feel pretty inadequate cause I just bought some rock and logs from a store and that’s it

[@SmokeyEdits]

With a little creativity, those fake plants and things can go a long way. In my time building enclosures, I've learned one thing: cohesion. Figure out small ways that the props can interact. For example, I have a small hide for my leopard gecko that has a little overhang on one of the doors. I tucked her water bowl in there, so much like a real cave, there's a body of water at the end. I tuck plants into corners, where they'd be likely to grow if they were real. Layers do a lot too. Making it look like there's an edge or a cliffside or something similar makes a big difference when it comes to being natural looking. That being said, there's nothing wrong with a basic aquarium. You got it for the fish, not the plastic inside with the fish.

Omg!!! Your videos are the best! i love to see you making a new place for the adorable little fishs!

[@jet687]

Next time i go to buy a tank I'll make sure to ask them "how many cats can it fit?" 🤣

[@evnejg94]

Thank you for making my Monday morning a pleasant start to the week.

[@KeepIt-hy8oo]

This was fun to watch! You’re so detailed and innovative. 😊

[@cociascarlet4152]

Can't wait for the update! It looks so nice. Hopefully all is going well.

Celestial Pearl Danio would be way sweet in this tank

[@JayAdams-ml5jf]

CPD are so common, that tank deserves something less common.

@@JayAdams-ml5jf What about black tiger darios/Dario "Myanmar" ? I can see a small colony just darting about between the plants and the lava rock.

[@JayAdams-ml5jf]

@@MyanmarWildWaters Theres only about 4 gallons or so of water there. IMO, best to avoid anything that requires schools. Also obviously (but based on many of the suggestions, it's not obvious to some) avoid jumpers like bettas etc.

[@MyanmarWildWaters]

@@JayAdams-ml5jf BTDs don't school actually, and they're tiny little fish. This tank seems to have a lot of broken lines of sight, I reckon 5-6 can live comfortably in there.

[@simon_5020]

I just found about about your channel and I have been watching all your videos non-stop. I just really enjoy it I like how al of it is being done by you so everthing is made by you it’s just really cool and I hope you see read my comment I am from Belgium btw. I also wanted to say that you bring your videos on a special way that I have never seen in other yt videos I have become addicted it think

[@thatguy5367]

Love the idea, I have a 34 gallon rimless tank. Gonna give it a shot. Thanks for the inspiration

[@daphnia-magna]

I love your nano-aquariums. Looking forward to follow the history of this new one. All the best!

[@emresarac7186]

I think it may become cool premium shrimp tank. It is nice horizantal one

[@benny3428]

Definitely agree

[@al-zw6rc]

It's so admirable that you take the time to fix the lamp

[@lauriamannoe4043]

I don't know how I came across your videos, but I've enjoyed watching them. It's so relaxing that I fall asleep. I'd wake up in the morning and my history is filled with your videos.
