Hello! I’m new to your channel, and I wanted to express my gratitude for this video! It’s like a work of art! The way it lowered the nitrite and nitrate levels in my fish tank, resulting in crystal clear water for the first time, is truly astonishing. I can hardly believe it; thank you! I purchased everything from Amazon, and it worked like a charm. I’m absolutely thrilled-my 75-gallon freshwater African cichlid tank is positioned right by the main entrance, and it’s become a stunning focal point. Thank you immensely, you’re genuinely the fish expert! My fish extend their heartfelt appreciation!
Thank you so much for the kind words and I am happy that your tank is looking crystal clear! It’s a pleasure to help fellow hobbyist. 😁 Happy fishkeeping!
Gonna be honest, it's reassuring seeing this. Been doing a ton of daily 20% water changes on my tank since I've been worried for my fishes' health after it fogged up- they're healthy looking, and the nitrates/nitrites and ammonia practically dont exist, but I kept seeing that algae fog. I heard that apparently doing an aquarium blackout can have a somewhat similar effect if you specifically just wanna remove the algae.
I should probably add that I use a draining gravel pump to clean the substrate of any residues pretty similar to a sort of hybrid between your vacuum and drain. The water changes are definitely making the water less foggy, though I feel like I could definitely use a vacuum like the one you got.
@@DZELION good to hear! The Poly-fil does a great job of straining out tiny suspended particles. You can use a flocculant water clarifier to clump up the bits and make it easier for the vacuum to work! Happy fishkeeping!
All my aquariums are always crystal clear...... except now. I've made a huge amount of changes to my tall tank, new fish, plants and rearranging everything. I've vacuumed like a mad man. And still it's cloudy. Not the white cloudiness you get from a Bacterial bloom. But dirty cloudy. I have a lot of filtration in all my tanks, and normally I have no problems. This looks like a great solution. Gonna run to the store for a small pump and try your method. I have a lot more plants and wood and fish than yours. Hate to disturb the fish over and over. But it needs to be done. Thanks for adding the video. Subbed and Liked!
Sometimes it helps to use a flocculent or water clarifier before the polisher. Good luck dude! Thanks for the comment and the sub! I really have to make more new vids LOL
I am super stoked to learn a faster , more convenient way to clean my aquarium!! I do have a ? However..What type of fish I'd the dark blackihh blue one?? Is it a female swordtail?
No problem! I used the pipes to drain the water from the tank (through a hose). The pump was used to polish/clean the water before and after I refilled the tank!
I got you bro. A polisher is a type of filter that is designed to trap smaller particles to clarify or “polish” water. It isn’t meant to house beneficial bacteria like a standard “permanent” filter.
As long as you dont suck them up inte the tube there is nothing wrong with letting the fishes swim around. Personally I think this water change is way too much (80%) in one session, but it all depends on the fishes and if they are used to this amount of volume on the water change.
Great comment! You are right. Hardy fish like live bearers can tolerate massive water changes better. It matters more when there are a lot of nitrates and other stuff that has accumulated in the water. In this case my nitrates were at or close to zero so I just changed the water to replenish minerals and clear it. Some people even do 95% water changes!
hello, I have a fairly large table-type aquarium, and last night I forgot to turn on the cleaning pump after feeding them. In the morning, in addition to the fact that the water was very cloudy, the fish seemed to have no air and that by tonight some would even die. I cleaned the sponges of the pump but at the moment no change. any advice?
Sorry to hear that! When you say cleaning pump, do you mean the filter? Is the filter inside the aquarium or in a sump? Also how many gallons is the tank, what fish are in it and how long has it been running?
I just vacuum the gravel every 2-3 weeks, and refill the water as I’m losing it during cleaning, scrape the glass, change the filter and it seems to stay very clean although my tank is a third the size of this one so that probably plays a big part. I’ve never seen my tank this dirty even after going on vacation.
A “dirty” looking tank can be very healthy. Like I’ve mentioned in another post, I let the mulm and algae accumulate here for illustration purposes. The nitrates through this entire time were ZERO.
For cleaning this particular filter (sponge filter) I just squeeze it out to dislodge the built up crud and then that gets vacuumed out with the water change. Sponge filters are great because they are low maintenance and work really well - a downside is they are pretty big and kind of ugly LOL

I got a fish tank now,Day later after I brought some fish,The tank water went of really cloudy,Could not hardly see much in it,Put some stuff in it,After a few days later,The tank water cleared up now,I can see right through it now,See the goldfish swimming about
@@kking9637 sorry this is incorrect. It is known that the bacteria lives in the filter media and also coats the hardscape and substrate. Almost no significant amount of nitrosomonas and nitrobacter live in the water column.
@@TheFishBeastThat is true but adding new water if you did not prep it first will stress out the fishes when the new water parameter is different than the old cycled water that was in your tank. And most tap water have a good amount of chlorine that is no good for fish. And stressing out the fish too much if they are not used to the new water yet will make them get sick and if the chlorine is not treated in the water, it will harm the fish as well.
Sorry to hear that! Is your tank cycled? What fish do you have and what size aquarium? What are your water parameters before cleaning? How much water do you change? Reply here so I can help!
There are different philosophies on how much and how often to change water, but 10% to 25% every 1 to 2 weeks is a good rule of thumb. Small frequent water changes are best. Don't vacuum the gravel yet, as you may disrupt the good bacteria that are just starting to colonize your aquarium.
@@kking9637 thank you for your comment! Can you give me a scientific explanation on why small frequent water changes are better? I change the water based on nitrate levels. What level would you consider to be the threshold for changing the water? And what do you use to figure how much water to change?
So you say that the water is all normal and the only high is your nitrate. Okay you do an 80% water change and unless you change it with water that has all normal levels in a perfecr world suitable for the fish, the sudden changes in all parameters will affect the fishes if the water is not treated. Compared to let say 25% or less change will have a lesser affect in the water parameters from the old water that a fish breathe in. So doing a smaller water change will change the water parameters alittle compared to a big water change that will change it alot higher. So for my opinion, doing a smaller water change frequently will make the fishes less stressful from less changes in the water parameters compared to a big water change that the fishes will need to get used too since everything else in the water will probably change slightlly unless it was treated. Plus the chlorine in tap water... that is no good for fishes.
90 percent of a clean tank is based on your filter you have . I can go a year without doing anything to my tank and it stays clean.. but I also have like a 400 dollar filtration system
Honestly bro it really depends on the bioload and the available surface area of the filter medium to harbor the nitrifying bacteria. A huge tank with a small bioload can probably go a year even using a cheap $20 sponge filter.
Hey Gary I used a SongLong mini pump from Amazon (comes in multiple brand names) and attached a small gravel vac to it (can’t remember where it was from).
I’m curious because it comes straight from the tap, do you put the dechlorinator in as it fills, before, or after? Or does it matter? I go bucket by bucket because I’m scared I’m going to hurt the fish by doing it wrong straight from tap
@@yoliyoli23 I didn’t tbh, some sources say it’s okay and other say to not do it. Ideally I think it’s best you put the dechlorinator in first but from what I’ve read you can put it in after but it’s just not as effective.
@@TheFishBeastI’ve had it for close to 1 month let it cycled with conditioner for 3 days before adding a fish it is a 20 gallon tank was clear for the first couple days then the water got hazy then started turning green in the course of a couple weeks and now I just been adding nitrifying bacteria starter for 2 days now and not so bad just light green and I have only done one 25% water change
@@Matt341 it’s best to test your water and ensure that the tank is fully cycled before adding fish. You really don’t need bacteria starters. Just a source of ammonia like fish food and test the water until ammonia and nitrites disappear and you have nitrates. At that point do a water change and add fish. Hope that helps bro! 😊

Thanks for the insightful comment, boss. However, if the sediment and mulm aren’t removed or otherwise dealt with and if the algae isn’t scraped then simply changing the water is unlikely to clear up the tank. Try it and see!
@@TheFishBeast Thanks and good question. Lots of plants and few fish helps the daphnia population maintain itself. I'm not sure when it will be stable though. You can put them in a net inside your aquarium, to give them a place to breed safely and clean up the water. A small hole or canal can serve as an exit to the main compartment, where the fish can eat them.

It sucks water in through the big tube which contains the filter material. The particles get trapped and it pushes out clean water.
