Great stuff, mate! This method is getting more popular nowadays. Maybe also helps to start with a fewer plants and save some money because of that. Loved the editing, and the sound with this mic is pretty cool :)
Thanks guys! After watching Lucas workshop video I can up with the idea to make another video about this method
The mic was a nice touch for sure.
Glad to see a new video from you Juri! Would love to try APT start but just happy to see this informative content.
I have used this method since I heard about it. Very helpful!
Quality content always. Please continue the good work
APT start - nice to see you back ! Even better content ! Can’t wait to see this set up and how you’ll be planting it !
Thanks, make sure to comment on my community poll regarding the plant choice
Thanks for sharing the Dark Start method. I'll try it for my next aquascape project.
As always great information.I have tried this method and has really helped alot.🙌🏻
Great video Juri! I will be using APT START as well as performing the dark start on my UNS 60T!
This is the video we were waiting for.currently doing a DSM of my 4ft tank.
Never heard of APT start. Glad to know it exists
APT Start - awesome video! Will definitely try this in my new shallow tank
Thank you for these tips
I used the dark start 3 times now and will do so when ever I set up a new tank. It simply works 👍 Especially with wood in the layout it pays off!
Cool video!

I am on a college budget, I am going to try this dark start method today after I grab some hardscape and aquasoil. This gives me time to save up for plants, heater, and the light. Thanks and wish me luck!
Looking forward to giving this a go! APT start
Great Video, Apt Start
Glad you liked it!
Good stuff APT Start.

Great video! APT START
My last tank was a dark start, and I don’t think I would do it any other way in the future. So many benefits, and it only costs patience. Would love to try out APT start in my next build.
Apt start i can't wait for the next video
In few days my new tank arrive, definitly want to try this method. I dobr have APT start but try some alternative. Greatw video.
Apt Start, very proud to see you using a product made by a fellow singaporean!
great video APT START !
Glad you enjoyed it
I have yet to try this mehtod, but I will for sure when the time comes for my next aquascape. Great video! APT START
Definitely try it, whenever possible I use this method every time
Great video! APT START.
Thanks for watching!
APT Start. Very easy to understand
Apt start. O Will try for sure!
I am trying this method now and I am loving the results so far. Have been running the tank for a little over three weeks now (saw your video almost as soon as it came out!). I am not doing water changes yet. Ammonia has been zero since week 2 but I am waiting for nitrates and nitrites to read lower than they are right now. Will need to try this APT method thing. I used API quick start couple of times throughout the three weeks. This would be a create methods for red aquarium plants that reportedly don't tolerate high nitrates. Thanks for sharing!
Apt start. Can’t wait to try this.
You will love this method
Awesome 👍!
Thanks! 👍
great to see you back being active on UA-cam again :) APT START
Cheers, thanks for watching
Apt start! Dark start is a great method to start an aquascape, easy but rewarding!👍🏼
Apt start. Im going to start a new aquarium soon so I would love to try this product
Randomly awake at 3am and Jurijs uploads a new vid. Sweet! Great vid with great info 👍
Oh, apt start 🤙
Haha 😂 sleep well now😉
A new video, a perfect start to a Sunday! APT START

I'm definitely using the dark start method on my new scapes, APT START
apt start. great method and nice rock work
Awesome content! APT START for the win
🙌
This is the way
Apt start. Very interesting video, I’ll give that a try when I set up my next tank.
let me know how it goes
APT Start. Appreciate the great information!
Glad it was helpful!
I haven't even decided if I want to have an aquarium or not, but I have done dozens of hours of research already on how to set up a healthy aquarium system with plants and denitrification 😂 I'm halfway to taking a marine biology course at this rate. If I do end up getting an aquarium, deep substrate hardscaping, APT Start, and dark start will definitely be the methods I will use!
I love your design compositions and would love to see a design utilizing highly striated stone like pagoda or ancient petrified stone as I am incredibly drawn to those and the ancient history they hold!
APT START 🎉 Great new way to start new experiences, Thanks
You bet!
Bardzo interesujace.:)Pozdrawiam APT START
Apt start for the win❤️
Very Informative thanks! APT START
Glad it was helpful!
Great information here, I recommend this method, super easy and fully successful cycled tank in 3 weeks... was able to plant and add fish/cleanup crew... everything is doing great after a couple months - Thank-you for this!
Top Video! APT Start

Will do the dark start on my new 60p. My first Iwagumi.
APT Start
I like your skills!
APT START of course!!
Apt start 🎉Next great wideo

Glad you enjoyed!
schönes Video! APT START
Vielen Dank!
Great video! APT START 🤞🤞👌
Boom!
Ty for this video. If i remember good, this technic comes from Austria owner shop (liquid nature) in ones of ur previous interview video, this technic traveled so far and now all newbies are doing it that's awesome. And it works well. Thanks for sharing guys. ❤
I heard about it years before, but it was this Austria guy who made me try and talk about it.
APT Start!!!. lets go!!!.
I'm starting a new tank and will try this method this time and apt start :)
Perfect, tell me how it goes. If your LFS doesn’t have APT start you can order online through the link in description
Super video and method... APT START
Thanks and welcome
Hi, I'm about to try it, APT START
Apt start. Lets gooo
Hehe 🙃
Thanks for the info on this one, spyderco pocket knifes are great, looks like the best way to start a planted tank. APT start
Apt start 🙂 I heard about the dark start method many months ago. May have been you Jurijs, lol. It is a miracle. I let it cycle for 2 months and changed water only twice. No algae, no plant melting! Amazing. But you need a lot of patience 😄
Wonderful!
Great video bro keep rocking
Apt start 😝
Thanks 😅
I really enjoy your videos. Thanks for good informative videos 🙂
APT START
You welcome, appreciate the feedback
Apt start. First time I know about this method.
Try it
Due to a crack on my 60P I will have to re-home the setup to another one. I will give DSM a try for sure. With APT Start, if I'm lucky.
Apt Start. These products seem so cool. Being from Australia I don’t think I’ve seen these so I would love to use them
I think they ship worldwide, check out the link in description
Nice trick at 04:47 !
great
Apt start. I recommend using ramshorn snail during the dark start after a few days. These reduce bacterial and fungal plaque very effectively. They also do not interfere when you start planting later. If you feed your fish in the right way, there will also be no mass reproduction of snails.
Yes great idea ☝️
I second this! It works really well but you do need to keep the feeding perfect or they will populate pretty fast!
@@IndoorEcosystem After more than a year I have so many shrimps in my 250 litre aquarium that I have almost no ramshorn snails left. I believe that the shrimp and snails compete for the biofilm. I regularly use BacterAE to feed the biofilms so that snails and shrimps can still find food. Also, soft water, low pH and CO2 are not very healthy for snails either.
@@lazygardener6278 makes a lot of sense as long as the shrimp win I'm a happy man!
I actually did that method with my first ever iwagumi style tank. I learned it from one of your videos where you did the brazilian style scape. It worked wonders! Thanks to you and APT START! sending regards from the Philippines
Fun fact, my Brazilian style video is the first ever video/content to call this method “dark start” 🤓 technically I gave it the name
Wow! Didn't know that! Trademarked!
Looking forward to using APT Start in the setup of my new ADA 120p.
you will enjoy it 😉
apt start . best way to cycle new tank
