    Awesome video! Very cool editing style by the way. I like to edit my videos at a slower pace, because I've found that most people that watch fishkeeping content on UA-cam tend to like things slowed down. I usually try to edit my videos so that there's not too much action, but rather moderate. Also don't have much time to edit a lot since I'm in high school. Great work!

      That makes sense! Balancing school and UA-cam is not easy. Props to you for that!
      There're tons of experimentation that I have to do when it comes to editing. Speed is another one of those variables. I might slow things down and see how that works out

    The pink flamingo crypt didn’t cost me any more than any other crypt but it did take me almost 2 years to find one because they’re always sold out everywhere

      Interesting... it could be worth a try if they are easily accessible and at a good price. Otherwise, there's always that risk, especially with more "artisian" crypts like flamingo.

    Shame you don't mention the beautiful red tiger lotus lily (Nymphaea).
    It is beautiful and quite easy to keep. And very cheap when you consider the coverage that 1 plant bulb is capable of.
    It doesn't need co2 - especially if you allow the lily-pads to grow to the surface: then the plant can extract the much more abundant atmospheric co2 from there.
    A reasonably nutrient rich substrate is helpful (as with most aquatic plants) - especially if you chose to prune the taller 'stems' to keep it as a lower midground plant. You will be rewarded with a compact bush of smaller pristine young leaves.
    There is a delightful green variety as well that adds contrast to this stunning red plant.
    The Tiger Lotus has the ability to grow into quite a huge substantial plant, and it's often considered as only good for medium to larger sized aquariums... but I have indulged in some aggressive pruning, and kept this plant in much smaller aquariums.
    Sometimes there is a need for a 'rest period' for the bulb: It is quite easy to research this situation if you decide to give these delightful plants a try.

      Oh I bet they have large leave especially with CO2 added! I believe Red Flame is able to grow both Green and Red leaves at the same time.
