All the fishroom builders wishing this video had been around a long time ago! Dean the perfect educator, Nick the perfect presenter and Harlan the perfect camera person. 🐐🐐🥇🥇
Amen to that! I'm in the process of moving and this video and others of Dean's fish room are giving me so many ideas on how to improve my breeding set ups!
Dean's fish room, is fish room goals for many an aquarist I'm certain. If I were going to start keeping fish again at any point. His room would be the one I'd try to replicate.
After a few years break I'm back into fishkeeping and watching videos on youtube. It's great to see new passionate people like you on the scene. I can tell you genuinely love the hobby and want to make it better. You and Dean make a great team for educating people on how to do things right. Great work!
I’m a water engineer and I work on modeling large water distribution systems. You are correct in the fact that the free chlorine or chloramines (depending on treatment of the utility) breakdown and are lower towards the ends of a water system.
Govee makes a WiFi enabled water sensor. Also has an audible alarm. You'll get an alert anywhere you have Internet access. They also has an audible alarm built in as well. I bought the 3 pack about 2 years ago and the batteries are still over 50%.
Thanks Nick, I really appreciate the time Dean gave you. I am setting up a new fish room after a few years not being able to keep fish. I want to have an automatic water change system and the information you gathered from Dean has been really helpful. Thanks again. I will be watching this video a few times. Thanks Michele
I love watching all these wonderful fishy videos, they make my frog and reptile pond , with little blue eyes , look so inadequate an old an vintage, been looking into modernising by adding a solar powered pump an making a filter only got into this 1 yr ago but it's become the best diversional therapy and great past time ,Thank you enjoy your videos, 💙🦘
@deansfishroom @keepingfishsimple - Nick’s suggestion of using a sump pump with float is a good idea. I also use a product called PumpSpy Wi-Fi Smart Outlet sump monitoring. If you rig your sump pump with a battery backup, you’ll have the redundancy of a pump failure and if the power goes out or pump fails, you’ll get a text message and push notification. They sell other sump components too but I’m only familiar with the monitoring device.
1200 oof 😢 i use a sump filter tank for added filtration and water volume so I just need overflow on sump tank to change all the water. And I only keep fish which can maintain the same water parameters. But id definitely like to setup that manual route with thermostat ❤
KDF 85 catalytic carbon filter will remove chlorine/chloramines and does not impact water psi much. I use one on my RO filter connected to 55g drum w/float. If I don't need RO water I just disconnect the RO membrane and still have dechlorinated water.
Nick really has nothing to learn from MD. MD doesn’t even know what fish he has. He’s great with plants, but not fish. He’s also an adequate aquascaper, so he has that going for himself.
Coming from the saltwater side I’m having anxiety with that bucket and pump with no alarm. A aquarium controller with sensors and controls would be more re assuring.
Winners makes a overflow sensor I have used for my outdoor pond and it is wifi controllable. Don’t know if it would work in this application how Dean wants it. They also make hvac ones for moisture but most aren’t WiFi controlled without paying $1000
Instead of using a large tank for water storage a catalytic carbon filter will remove chloramine in a pretty short contact time frame. Whole house systems can go for 6 months without replacement and if you run 100+ tanks it is probably more economical.
I would be very careful using those as they can potentially remove trace minerals as well. I happened to me and I had tins of fish deaths until we figured it out.
Yes. I use carbon block (CTO) filter to remove chlorine and chloramine from my tap water for my koi pond. The chlorine/chloramine removal rate is depend on the iodine value of the carbon block filter, but you can increase the effectiveness by running carbon block on series of canister housing. 😀
PLEASE HELP!!! I’ve been building a very similar system over the last few months and am about to buy the submersible pumps but would love to avoid buying the wrong size. I should be able to do water changes to 30 tanks from my phone. One to supply HMA filtered water from a 1000L container, and one to pump away waste water after it overflows from the tanks, runs through a drain and back to a waste bucket. Please can you recommend how many GPH or LPH deans waste water pump is that he uses in that bucket/container?
Hi Nick I keep impulse buying fish and saying to myself its an investment how can i properly and efficiently breed stuff like guppys plecos and corys stuff you need skill to breed
That's a shitty way to describe the piping... "I couldn't put it there because there's a wall there, there's a wall here... So I went through the ceiling, across the room, then back again." *Drilling through floor and a ceiling is more complicated than just going through a wall*
His room is in a basement which means the walls might be concrete or cinder block. Easier to attach a pipe to a ceiling panel than drilling through stone.

There you gooo! Best comment! 🎯
Yes definitely ❤ 💯 love dean and his knowledge and nick with the questions. Harlon is a great fish keeper as well 🎉

I really appreciate the upload schedule and the quality of videos thank you so much.

Thanks, Dean! Thanks, Nick! Thanks, Harlan!
i always enjoy when someone talk about aquarium stuff
Look into HVAC systems for heating and cooling for Bluetooth overflow alarm

Dean needs his own channel it would be epic nick talk him into it like you did Adrian.
Awesome layout for the water change system. Been watching videos on this and by far this one is impressive. Thanks for sharing Fired Up!!!
Right on time for my future plans😊
Thanks to all involved!
My two favorite fishkeepers in one vid !
You should change out your 5g pail sump with something larger and add a second back up pump just for insurance!
Such an amazing system
👍🏻😎 Great video. Dean is the man.
Having a water sensor that turns off the input water as well as an alarm/notification system would be a good option

hi can you tour bass fishing productions fish tanks and ponds pls
rain bird make automated sensors that go to your phone. made for irrigation.
Amazing. Great video.

You need to tour MDs studio
Nick really has nothing to learn from MD. MD doesn’t even know what fish he has. He’s great with plants, but not fish. He’s also an adequate aquascaper, so he has that going for himself.
@@Peter_Trevor but if he goes to the Uk he might as well
ESP32 or arduino with a water sensor. Can even send you text alerts including wifi and BLE.
Pretty insane setup. What racks does Dean use? They seem perfectly sized for tanks.
Coming from the saltwater side I’m having anxiety with that bucket and pump with no alarm. A aquarium controller with sensors and controls would be more re assuring.
Thankfully fresh water causes a lot fewer problems. One of the main reasons i haven't got into marine tanks yet.
the dream right here
very nice 👌
Moen has water alarms you'd prolly have to Jerry rig it but it is phone friendly
The sink company
Winners makes a overflow sensor I have used for my outdoor pond and it is wifi controllable. Don’t know if it would work in this application how Dean wants it. They also make hvac ones for moisture but most aren’t WiFi controlled without paying $1000
$8 in parts from china ESP32 and water level sensor.
The hydros aquarium controller just the xs1 to monitor.

I would be very careful using those as they can potentially remove trace minerals as well. I happened to me and I had tins of fish deaths until we figured it out.
there is also a remineralizing filter canister too. I have it with my ro system and adds back some trace minerals tds goes from 0 back to about 40-60.
Don't suppose you have a schematic of Dean's water change set up????
Love the video Keep it up!!
That's OP
Do a goldfishs breeding video pls😄
do u even have goldfishs?
Can we get bug buffet in the uk?
Hey can i put an arapaima,alligator gar and an arowana together?
Anyone know if it's cheaper to filter chloramimes or use conditioner?
I coild be wrong but wouldnt the cwrbon filter also remove some of the chlorine thats in the water ? Awesome setup
Yes. I use carbon block (CTO) filter to remove chlorine and chloramine from my tap water for my koi pond. The chlorine/chloramine removal rate is depend on the iodine value of the carbon block filter, but you can increase the effectiveness by running carbon block on series of canister housing. 😀
Anyone know what solenoid brand those are ?
Simply safe make a Bluetooth water detector 👍

With automatic water change systems, how do you remove chlorine from tap water automatically?
The water runs through an inline filter (there are many filters for removing many types of things)

hi
this is insane! lmao
