    Those buffers aren't going to harm your fish unless you're not using them correctly. The buffers are just a lazy way of correcting pH issues and they're basically vinegar, if it drops pH, or baking soda if it raises pH. They're no more chemical than the dihydrogen monoxide we all put in our tanks. That being said they're not really the best option to maintain pH. I do agree that you should probably steer clear of those clarifiers though. They're often made using aluminum sulfate and work by binding to particles in the water and causing them to precipitate out and sink to the bottom and I don't really like the idea of putting metals in my tank I can also explain the low iron glad a bit. I'm normal glad we add iron to improve the strength of the glass but it also decreases the clarity of the glass. Using less iron in the glass makes it more optically clear so you can see through the glass better than normal glass. It also makes the glass a bit weaker so it scratches super easy. You should stay away from using metal scrapers on low iron glass because the metal is likely to scratch the glass. Personally I don't care for it because I don't feel like it improves the clarity enough to justify the price. You can get similar clarity with an acrylic tank and since the low iron glad scratches so easily it's not much different in my opinion

    Why pay more than a dollar a gallon? For $10, I picked up a used 65-gallon tank that was leaking a little. I resealed it for less than $10 worth of silicon, and it's great. I pick up tanks at Estate Sales, yard sales, and local Facebook Marketplace. These sources have produced two 75s, another 65, two 40s, a 29, and two 10s all since September.

    I think people are overrating "no water change" a little bit too much nowadays. I mean, sure people often do it way more than necesary, but a small partial water change 10-15% every month or two or so, helps to clean something that has been acumulating over and over and might be toxic in large amounts. And since its a really small water change, won't change aquarium so much.

I also would dose liquid carbon from time to time as it speeds the process tremendously. Good luck mate

    That tank is WAY too cloudy. There should not be so many fish in a tank until it's well established. That you have a green water thing going on PLUS cloudy water, your chemestry is off. Get that other filter and for awhile at least get some GOOD QUALITY carbonated charcoal to use. That will clear the water pretty quick. A good bio media will help in the long run but that will take some time to get a good layer of bacteria growing. Again establishing a tank, takes months. Also I hope you mention NOT to bred siblings.

      @@Bens_Outdoor_Shenanigans Deteriorating? What is it exactly? Looks like any gravel that didn't get rinsed. But that would clear fairly quickly. Still the green water, your levels have to be way off. Too much nitrite etc is feeding the suspended algae. Again get some good, FINE, activated charcoal into any cheap box filter, it will clear it up in hours.

    • @Bens_Outdoor_Shenanigans

    • @artmakersworlds
      @artmakersworlds Місяць тому

      @@Bens_Outdoor_Shenanigans Ok, I wasn't sure from the video if you had sand or dolomite. Sand... assuming silica sand, most common one sold in pet shops, is absolutely NOT going to do anything. It's fine. It does not deteriorate at all. It IS dusty as all get out when you buy it new, sure hope you dealt with that but even if you didn't, it's only dust, it will filter out. The suspended algae (green water) is a sign that there is too much oh.... waste break down going on. high nitrites, high minerals, you do have some plants in there which is good but clearly not enough. Way to much to go into here, but the tank is clearly not "established." Is this a fairly new set up? That would surely account for it. Again quickest fix, outside filter, even a cheap one would do, and good activated charcoal. Marineland made about the best I ever used, though granted I have been out of the hobby for many decades. "Stuff" changes but not my knowledge of fish. Those few little sponge filters you have are simply not large enough to handle the amount of water and amount of fish in there. Those are great for say a fry tank as they won't suck up the babies. But in a big tank like you have there, nowhere near good enough. On the up side, first thing I look at is how the fish are breathing and so far they don't seem to be in a state of stress. Just don't push your luck. This is very fixable.

    • @artmakersworlds
      @artmakersworlds Місяць тому

      Oh one more thing, AFTER you get this issue dealt with of course, a few good bottom feeders I'd recommend. Kuhli loaches are fantastic at getting into places the snails and other fish can't. And I think they are kinda cute. DO get more than one, they are more comfortable if there are a few in there. Another one you might try looking for are spiny eels. Those guys will dive right into fine sand like you have. Very cool. One does fine by itself on that one.

      yes duckweed is always what people recommend and ALWAYS a regret, trying to get rid of every piece when you realize the mess it makes. I only keep water lettuce too now. jungle val and dwarf sagittaria spread fast for me. The dwarf lily or red tiger lotus is probably the easiest plant I've grown and has vibrant color, had no melting or issues with adapting like a lot of other plants. Thing is constantly shooting up lily pads and big red leaves, no co2 or ferts. Anubias grows in any condition without issues, slow growing but nice green color. For stem plants, basically any stem is easy to grow. Anacharis is cheap and grows fast.

Also no lights in first month or so is wanted / needed, due to dry rock and sand used , will grow nuisance algae very quickly. Was there any nitrifying bacteria ever added/seeded to tank? To secure animals health , should try to use live rock if at all possible.
