That was so good. You guys couldn't have done a better Halloween edit. Every single mistake presented was fully relatable and weirdly it was very satisfying to watch these being made by you. To stay on the horror side of things I think my most painful aquascaping experience was when I was assembling a new external filter. I basically wanted to cut the hose with a very sharp knife, without any thinking I did pull the knife towards me until it slipped through and I managed to cut in between two fingers. It opened so wide that it ended up with an immediate journey to the hospital where they fixed me up with 5 stitches. I can still feel it as I'm writing this story. 🎃👻 Thanks for this video, made my day!

I did manage to save one which was only knocked out on the floor... also all of my fan shrimp died., Which I only had for about 1 or 2 weeks..

Two years ago I moved into a new house and built my new planted tank. New house, new aquarium, new furniture, new floor everything was new ... when changing the water, I asked my son to go turn off the tap because the aquarium was already full. I trusted him to turn it off but he opened it even more and left the hose inside the tank while I was finishing packing up all the stuff. Suddenly the water starts to come out of the aquarium at a low rate but still it was a catastrophe we didn´t know if we should close the tap or if we try to hold the water… we were frozen!

In my first tank with diy CO2 injection, i put the check valve on the wrong position so the CO2 wont come out to the diffuser, at first i thought it was because of the pressure is so low that it cant get through the check valve so i tried to open the regulator wider but the CO2 still wont come out, then when i get my face closer to the hose, it suddenly explode in front of my face, the explosion was loud enough to shock my family cause they think i just created a bomb, then i realized that i was put the check valve on the wrong direction, but luckily the explosion didnt crack the glass of the tank so i just replace the hose and put the check valve on the right direction and finally the CO2 came out from the diffuser perfectly, it was totally my unforgotten experience with aquascaping and hope you guys can take a lesson from my mistake, and forgive me for the bad grammar cause english isn't my first language, greet from Indonesia you guys from Green Aqua really inspire me.

First tank as a teenager, bought it in de LFS as a set including a '3d' background, but without instructions. It didn't fit so I removed a thin slice, put it in, added gravel (bottom half mixed with some powder fertiliser) and added water. The background was made out of styrofoam, so it floated up, taking along a lot of fertiliser, messing up the tank. Had to start all over, glued the background and set it all up. After a while the glue got loose, but the background was held by the cover, which I then could no longer remove. Luckily it had two panels for maintenance, so throughout its lifetime I always accessed the tank through there.

When I first got my own place to live I set up a 0 gallon aquarium as a quarantine tank. I had some guppies and other fish in it that I was going to plaace in my 55 gallon tank. I was doing some maintenance on the 10G tank before bed and not sure when but I bumped the heater temperature knob. The next morning I woke up and went to my 0G tank to feed the fish. I opened the glass lid and steam rose off the water's surface and a wave of hot moist air hit me in the face along with the smell of dead fish. The only fish to survive 9 hours 150F were some corydoras cats, some kuhli loaches, and some various gouramis. Lesson learned: Never do maintenance/water changes before bed or when you are tired (I did both). Always check water parameters before and after water changes or other maintenance done on your tanks: pH, GH, KH, Temperature, check CO2 bubble counter and air lines for back flow (always use back flow regulators). Check that all your equipment is replaced correctly and plugged in correctly. Check temperature on a in tank thermometer ever ten minutes for an hour to make sure it is in the correct temperature zone for your fish.I lost over $300 in fancy guppies and other live bearers. All the other fish survived because they could breathe atmospheric air.

He took a taxi with the tank back to his apartment and didn't realize that one of the corners on the bottom of the tank got chipped at some point. While carrying it into his apartment it sliced open his forearm and he didn't notice until he got all the way up to his apartment and set the tank down. Blood was pouring out and he had left a trail of blood all over the place. He ended up having to go to the hospital to get a bunch of stitches across his arm. This was his entrance into the hobby lol, amazingly he purchased another tank and still got really into aquascaping. Also looks like you guys recovered nicely and were able to salvage that scape from last video, can't wait to see the update video for that.

Tommy forgot the order??! 😱 No way! 😅 It happens! Always good to see expert mistakes! After 4 years on this wonderful hobby, I still suck at anchoring wood. I feel over confident on the wood weight and mess it up. Yes, 7kg wood does float 😂. As for your wives, be kind and warn them before any scaping event at home. I always shout "Rescape time tomorrow morning" and she leaves all day just to avoid seeing all the living room in a mess 😅

Fantastic video. Mistakes will happen but it’s great to be able to learn from them ( and laugh at them) once the mistake has been remedied.

There! You're right! Should have said that. :) But sadly 95% or the hobbyists are men. Don't like that.

I just finished the show, whatever you guys mentioned the mistake I have encountered myself, truly we all learn from mistake, that's the joy of having this hobby, even we try to follow the way of green aqua keeping the plants or other things, eventually we will develop our own one after watched all episodes. I amazed you do not use cable tie to tie the hose and lily pipe together as the weight of 16/22 hose with water will detach from lily pipe. Secondly the 5mm thick water flood doesn't damage all wooden cabinet?
@GreenAquaShop3 жыл бұрын
Not if the cabinet is made nicely :) Not the weight of the hose, it just fell down together with the hose onto the rim of the tank without detaching.

My worst failure in this hobby was when i put a whole 50 gallon fish tank on a wooden stand without placing a foam sheet underneath. And i think it’s pretty obvious now that my expensive 50gallon tank with alot of plants and hardscape completely collapsed overnight. Good thing there was no fish as the tank was still cycling

Oh guys that's hit me 😨 so you built a new one after that?
