My wife and I met Father Fish at his aquarium store 10 or more years ago. During our visits there shopping and talking with him we learned so much from him. Our fish and shrimp tanks started flourishing almost immediately when we put his advice into action. He made this hobby more enjoyable and rewarding for us. Now we get keep learning from him here on UA-cam. Thanks Father Fish
How soon do you put shrimp in to your tanks? I figure I'll add fish first and continue adding more every week or so but wasn't sure when shrimp would be good to go
@@awesomeGking you can add them right now along with fishes... I have added them along with guppies... they were quite good companies for fish they eat anything like coriander leaves.. spinach... Carrot pieces etc
@@yashagrawal744 As I understand it, CO2 is produced by the substrate decomposing (thanks to the beneficial bacteria that you should introduce). Just like fermenting some sauerkraut :) And the abundance of plants will eat up all the excess ammonia, and correct the PH, removing the need to change the water. Many plants, relatively few animals.
I was about to give up on having my aquarium on till i found you father fish. After 3 years of owning my aquarium everything just started falling apart and now im taking a different step today. I bought your soil substrate a month ago and i am taking a new step to this you gave me the will to keep going thank you very much father fish nothing is better then a natural aquarium!
I've love how you're taking over the hobby and getting the recognition u deserve. thanks, father, fish. Truly changed my life. And I share this all over Facebook. Everyone has so many problems and dead fish and chemicals. I say this: Two words father fish!!!!! Please research him. Best thing I've done years ago. My fish breed, and my plants thrive. Snakeplissken. Thanks lue❤ from michigan. Shared.
I did this 7 weeks ago & now have a thriving tank with pregnant guppies minnows & mollies 😊 I have 3 baby guppies & a tiny baby molly there maybe more in there hiding in the plants I have 2 different snails in there too next step to get a clean up crew shrimps & some other bottom feeders, I’ve kept fish since I was very small this is the best tank anyone can create I’ve never done a water change just top ups no chemicals… Farther fish your a inspiration thank you ❤
Thank you for this video. I have several aquariums which I always maintained regularly. My husband had a stroke a year ago and with caring for him and our home I have found it difficult to keep my weekly maintenance schedule. A UA-camr said that the first time you skip your weekly water change you have lost your passion for the hobby. That statement has disturbed me as I don’t feel I’ve lost that passion. Watching this video has given me a different perspective. All of my tanks have the elements that you listed, dirt, sand, plants, light and thriving beautiful life. Listening to your wisdom now I can enjoy my aquariums without guilt while I help my husband recover.
Greetings from Russia ! I have been in the aquarium business for over 30 years. And this approach is very different from ours. Ours is taking longer and more difficult or not?)) We pour soil (nutrient substrate and sand on top) + decor from stones and driftwood, fill with water + add bacteria to start (for example from Tetra) or a couple of gallons from an old aquarium and wait 3 days . We don't turn on the lights!!! During this time, the water becomes cloudy and then clear. The launch took place. Then we plant the plants and turn on the lightsfor 5-6 hours per week. And only a week later we plant the first residents. Snails and inexpensive fish. and wait another 3-4 weeks. After this, you can introduce the main inhabitants of the aquarium and increase daylight hours (at your discretion). For the impatient, the option is to immediately plant the plants and the first inhabitants, but we must increase the volume of water from the old aquarium! Light 3-5 hours, but expect lots of algae! That's about it!))
That sounds much more time consuming then my father fish tank. I put the soil in the sand in the water in the plants in day one day two I put a couple fish in.... That's it
In the past I learned that when my tanks were set up right and left alone, they did far better than changing anything around or doing anything at all. At times in the past when I wasn’t feeling good and had neglected my tanks, they flourished. This hobby is one where nature takes care of everything for you if you let it 🙏
I converted all of my tanks to FF. Some are doing better than others, but I love working with nature rather than trying to combat it. It makes so much sense! Thank you for all your videos
Father Fish, you have made this hobby enjoyable again. I have kept fish since 2007, and there were many times I had become so frustrated that I was ready to give up. You have made it fun again. I started some resurrection jars, and I really enjoy seeing the life in there. I’m looking forward to cultivating the daphnia and other creatures to try and establish a food web for my tanks.
I am a firm believer in the less you mess with nature the less problems you will have. I've kept a 40 gallon breeder with 2 sponge filters, live plants assorted with tetras, corys, shrimp, and Bolivian rams and I haven't lost a fish. I only top the water off when it gets low.
I know nothing about fish. I have no connection with nature except me being alive as I live in a tightly packed city. I was just exploring pets or plants that don't trigger my allergies. I wasn't sure if fish would fit it. But after listening to Father Fish, it's so fascinating. This is exactly what I wanted.
I started 2 tanks 3 months ago. Bought everything I thought I would need. At the time of my purchase I discovered Father Fish. Set my tanks up accordingly. Almost call went well until I over fed. I rebalance and almost all has been good. The introduction of new fish from the petstore being the main challenge. I have the test kits but haven’t even broken the seals on them as I watch my tank and let it communicate to me.
Thank you father fish for your golden advice 😊 it really helped me with my aquarium hobby before i used to have a regular gravel tank with fake plants I used to do alot of water changes and heavy cleaning eventually my whole community of fish died off from the chlorine in the water I almost completely quit the hobby but ever since I found your channel I made myself my very own live aquarium with plants and a dirted subtrate i haven't done any water changes since its the 3rd month now and it's getting better my plants are growing rapidly that almost half the tank is covered my new fish loves their aquarium once again thank you god bless you sir 😁😊
Hey! How is your tank doing? Do you feed your fish or do they eat the daphnias/ostrapods if you have them in the tank? I really want to start a tank like yours but am unsure on what I need to make it happen. I don't want to use air pumps, filters, or anything like that. I just want my tank to be completely self-sufficient like an actual ecosystem.
I used to be one of those and it's one of the things that I really loved about all of the tech with high-tech tanks. Controllers pumps filters shit to maintain, but all that stuff to control the parameters perfectly and have everything set to some arbitrary value that is supposed to be ideal. I have done a complete 180 and boy am I happier with a tank that I set up a year and a half ago and maybe only done 5 or 6 water changes in the first couple of months and maybe one more few months ago
@@NEnigma777 that’s been the hardest thing for me as well, my test kit is starting to gather dust and sometimes I’m tempted. But I know if I do I’ll start trying to fix things that don’t need fixing! Best of luck!
I had a shrimp colony that was starting to really take off. Then I decided there was fixing that needed to be done. Bad choice. The tank crashed because I fixed something that didn’t need to be fixed.
Making the story short, I bought a fish tank for my son and after few days, he lost the interest, so all the efforts was on me. I was very tired of changing water/filter and etc..... I was about to give up....Then I came to this channel/world. I watched several videos, and set up my tank with the help of materials from a pond near my house using whatever I could collect, snail, leaves, water plants, muds etc .... . It has been 6 days since, and I swear to god, NEVER/EVER my water tank been that much crystal clear.... I cant appreciate your help enough father fish...God bless you..
My son and I met father fish on his aquarium back on Maryland some 7 years ago. Father fish has been detrimental for my son's interest in biology. He took Biology mostly due to this. Thanks father fish ❤
This is the most wholesome man I've seen on the fishtube. Nothing overwelming, just trust the process. Im waiting on the cloudiness of the water from the substrate to clear before I put my plants and fishes!
It's funny to see this video title. That message is one I've been thinking here lately. One example of that is taking one of the two lights off my 40 while I have the highlight plant in the back under the light and a low light plant in the front. I don't cut them and interfere very little. Works well.
Great advice! Cloudy water scared me a year ago when I established my first aquarium only you calmed me down and I did nothing 😅😅😅 Guess what happened My aquarium clears up by self and I haven't done any water changes ever Thanks to you 👉 father fish

I’ve had mine set up a week now I put one guppy in there and a tiny Paratilapia poleni baby in it at 2 cm I can see already there are tiny live forms in there I look through a magnifier, and the fish are hunting for food and eating, I will take the paratilapia out when I’ve set up a cichlid tank and he’s a little bigger, thankyou for all your information, you’re our David Attenborough of the aquatic world ❤
I dirted a 3 gallon tank. I've done nothing to it and it is absolutely thriving. Fish super colorful, plants literally growing up through the surface. I have a tiny hob filter that basically just gently circulates the water.
Hello, I don't fully understand because my English is weak. I have a 3.4 gallon tank. How can I install this system without using a heater filter as far as I understand. I have 2 goldfish. Can I do it with them? Can I get soil, sand and plants from nature? As far as I understand from the video, we only use light support.
I have done this in my 100 gallon. Took dirt from my property, capped with sand, planted live plants and added fish. Best tank ever. Clean and my tank is coming alive. Plants reproducing. Fish reproducing. Tanks alive!! Thank you FF!!
In my first tank after moving, I did a lot of things trying to fix the algae and ammonia. I did tests and when I found variations I did water changes and bought products to stabilize it. Total failure. Something similar happened with my plants, I took great care of them and they always dried up or rotted. Afterwards I simply left them in the yard alone and they grew like never before. That's when I realized that I have to leave them alone as the father fish says. I will try again with another tank. Thanks for sharing your wisdom
Started a tank following father fish's advice about 6 months ago. I've got to admit, I was a little skeptical about whether it would work when i started so I introduce a heap of plants and 20 or so ghost shrimp I got on a cheap sale. 6 months later and the tank continues to thrive but now with a variety of snails, shrimp and fish I gradually introduced over time. I've never made a water change since starting the tank 6 months ago. Thank you!
Hey! I am also thinking about starting a tank similar to yours. I hope to build a self-sustaining ecosystem for some fish. Do you use anything else for your tank except the tank itself, water, light source, plants, animals, and substrate? Any filters or air pumps? Also, if I were to keep some fish in their (I want to keep them without having to feed them), do you think I would need to introduce a food source like daphnias/ostrapods?
Ive still got a filter running for now. Eventually i will look to remove it. As for food web, I'm growing daphnia outdoors but have trouble keeping them alive in my tank... they get smashed by my danios. Other than that, ive got some microworms and other microorganisms that were introduced thanks to FF's creek culture cultivation method.@connorkim7306
In China there was an ancient way to keep fish, which we call 古法养鱼 Gu Fa Yang Yu, it’s basically doing the same. Dirt in huge china water vase, any clean water sat for a day(it’s called trap water), water plant, lotus, fish, TA-DA! Same philosophy.
This is a wise and experienced man. Is the first time I saw one of his videos and I am grateful and amazed. Just learned a magnificent lesson of how humans could bring nature to home. Everything is about respect. Thank you so much for sharing that amazing lesson.
I thank Father Fish for I've got his advice almost a year ago and since than, my 95.4 lt tank is so wonderfull I can't discribe. Every word he says is good to provide knology into our tanks. Thanks again, Old Man! You are a wonderfull guy. May our Lord bless You. Nelson Schwarz South Brazil
This is the video that motivated me to finally start an aquarium. Watching a lot of other videos it's easy to get stressed out I was making mistakes but a month later I have a great little creek bed tank with the plants growing astoundingly quickly and the fish playfully interacting with each other, exploring the plants, nibbling on algae, good to come back to this video and be reassured that everything's fine! Thanks for sharing all your experience.
I tried your method on my anglefish tank. It's been a year and half with no water change and doing nothing and they're thriving. I changed my other two tanks to a natural aquarium as well. Everyone is happy. All I do is dumping my glass of water when I pass by the fish tanks and feed them once a week sometimes twice 😊. Thank you father fish
Ive instituted alot of your ideas in my first planted aquarium. The result? No ammonia/nitrite readings in the middle of the process...yet the plants grow like theyre Co2 infused, at least doubling in size in less than 3 weeks. Plants are a priceless end game for all things which can harm the ecosystem. Its incredible witnessing this.
I love the video! I learned the hard way by always playing around and thinking I needed to fix everything in the tank. I wish I came across your videos sooner. Spent way too much time and money on chemicals and trying to fix every little thing. I don't test my water nor water change any more. The hobby is way less stressful now. My original tank was gravel and now is capped with sand and a ton of plants. Thank you for sharing your wisdom
I have a 15 gallon Fluvel Flex with two large sprites, a medium rose sword three java ferns and some sprigs of dwarf hair grass. I have 13 fish and a couple of snails. The substrate is a fluvel soil capped with sand. I am wondering if I can introduce some culture. Due to current health issues I cant go to a local stream. Is there another way to introduce the culture to start the food web? I really like your youtubes. Thank you for educating me.
Yes. Set a bucket outdoors and put a little soil and some dried leaves in it., You can even add a bit of table scraps, no meat. Let it sit for about a month. In a week or so you will begin to see microscopic life. Start adding some of that material to your tank, very small amounts. Then add more dried leaves to your tank.
@@FatherFishI think a problem with cultures whether using creek debris etc or starting your own is harmful pests like damsel or dragon fly larvae. If you're a shrimp keeper, your shrimps will get eaten so unfortunately you have to keep an eye out but the more stacked with plants and decor your tank is, the harder it will be - maybe impossible - to track down these predators. I noticed about 2-3 of these in my small (non natural) tank but had not been able to see them all at once, after watching the tank.
@Father Fish I'd like to see a video or a short on how to protect planted tanks when you have to move. I'm moving to another state. How do i keep my dirted tanks from being tossed around and ruined?
draw the water down to one inch or less. Carry the tank, anything more than 55gal may require help. The tank can be moved successfully with a small amount of water covering the soil and plants.
been researching and getting into keeping fish to make up for my mistakes as a kid with a betta I had, Father fish you seem so nice and havign a tank where I do nothign but sit back and watch my fish has been a dream. you inspire me! Hopefully I'll set up a tank or a ressurection jar this year :)
I cannot express enough how much fish really seem to enjoy live plants. i used to use fake decorations. but when I switched to live plants they seemed happier. like, they go out of their way to swim thru/among/betwixt the leaves! i had an amazon sword plant that ended up getting massive. it lived for several years. would cut it back and it constantly grew new leaves.
Trimming and replanting stem plants is also beneficial especially if you didnt get enough plants in the first place you can fill out some of the area that dont have plants 👍👍 this is a great video father fish😎😎
I started aquarism less than a month ago. That Robbie got me! I'm looking for information and ended up discovering his channel. Thank you for your commitment to sharing your knowledge and experiences. Greetings from Rio de Janeiro - Brazil!
Ya know, Father fish kinda reminds me of Moses back in the day. You know leading his people out of Egypt to a better life. Father fish is kinda doing the same with these natural ecosystems, perhaps not to a better life but to a way of peace. A way so that we can come home to not trouble or strife, but peace
Thankyou for not a new message but a reinforcement, a reminder if you will. Patients is a virtue. All the tests in the world wont give you a fraction of information that nature will feed you with OVER TIME. The caveat of course is that you need to become very familiar with your aquarium, and watch..and listen.
Father Fish, I adore you! I love watching your videos and shorts. You have inspired me to give it a go. I just ordered my plants from you. I have everything else already so as soon as my plants arrive I am diving in, I am so excited! I tried fish tanks with all the filters and pumps and stuff 30 years ago and failed miserably. I swore I would never keep a fish tank again. I didn’t understand the science of it. One of the reasons I adore you so much is because you break things down where it’s almost impossible to fail using easy to follow step by step instructions. I love the love you have for nature. I just found out a few weeks ago that these tanks you talk about existed! How long have I been under that rock? 😂 Thank you for sharing your wisdom with us God bless
Have a well established betta tank after following your videos. It is about 5 months old filled up with plants and shrimp and the Betta. Ive never been so engaged to fish keeping before ive tried different fish keeping methods and different fish but it never clicked. Im SO Glued on my 10 gallon tank I have fallen in love and cant wait to do a small shrimp only tank😊
Thank you Father Fish, for all your content. I really appreciate you sharing all your knowledge with us. Lots of love your way from germany, and all the good things too! ♥
100 watts per 20 gallons? How can that be achieved? A 48 inch fluval plant 3.0 only had 58 Watts? I would need 375watts for my 75 gallon???? That's pretty much impossible 😂
@@FatherFish yep although flood lights are completely different to a Fluval Plant 3.0. A dedicated full spectrum led should be around 10w per 10 US gallon
@@BassManStrikesyes I would like to know as well. On my 40 litre FF tank (10 gallon) I was using 30W LED spotlighys GU10. Which is 60W LED for 20 gallons. It was a shallow 25 cm tall tank so for deeper I could go higher. Right now I have a 20W LED flood lamp on a shallow 5 gallon and it is not very bright but I don’t go for long duration, only a few hours. Sunlight would be easily double that light or more.
I just discovered you r channel because some friends gave me a bowl with a betta fish, so i'm searching how to make his life happier. I love your wisdom and your kindness, you remind me of a french great man named Pierre Rabhi... Thank you so much for your nice advices.
I started a planted tank on Sep 29th, 2024, to be exact. I've tried a few times before with never really having any luck, the last tank I had set up lasted about a year or so, but it always looked scraggly and depleted. I never knew to just leave the light on and do nothing else, as I was doing 20% water changes weekly along with my other non-planted tanks and only ran the light for 6hrs a day. The 5gal I have now that's been set up for 2-1/2 months looks fifty times better than my last set up all because I do nothing, I top off the water when it's low and feed the four guppies maybe 2-3 times a week. The new plants I added last weekend already started sprouting new growth and are thriving, the Java Moss I added when I first set up the tank that was all brown and dying has already started to green up as well. The only thing I mad about is that I never seen Father Fish's videos before explaining just how simple it really is, after winter I'm going to start another planted tank with a 10gal I have laying around a Hygger plant light I had from the last time I tired and start looking into some nicer plants as I believe I can get them to thrive now with all this new found wisdom I have of planted tanks.👍👍👍
Absolutely love this video sir! Everything you are showing us in one video. I think this video will be very helpful to everyone from just researching your style a tank to someone already neck deep into them. Your way is so awe inspiring honesty and makes me feel grateful I found you on here to inspire me. Thank you sir…. And thank you again for sharing a clip of my channel in your b roll 🙏😁👍❤️
Your ethos on fish keeping is in alignment with and proves terrain theory.. Germs are not the problem unless the organism is sick from malnutrition and or poisoned. Great content.
His method works great. I've only had my tank set up for 4 months now, and plants and fish are doing great, and the substrate is showing no sign of losing nutrients (common issue with the Walstad/NPT tanks I've set up using soil with gravel cap). As a result, I'd say plant growth has been slower overall, but the growth is very healthy and algae is almost absent. I'd highly recommend this method for anyone wanting to set up their first planted tank. If you follow his directions, you'll have a tank that more or less takes care of itself.
🙂Hello. Thank you very much for your video. I watched and read a lot about aquariums. Sometimes I had a lot of ideas in my head on how to make a good aquarium. Now I know that nature, which I love so much, will take care of itself. And that's what's beautiful. Thank you.😀
Thank you for this video father fish! I unknowingly have been following your advice ever since, way long before finding your channel. I can truly testify that you are a thousand percent right!
I agree with this, I noticed that when I clean my tank, do partial water change, that's when my fish die. I didn't clean it up for months, I let the algae grow, I sh*t you not, the fish thrived. I just don't understand why others have to be too technical with this stuff.
I have kept Tropical / Freshwater fish twice in my life, once as a kid and again after I was older and wanted to introduce my kids to them when they were really small. Over the years I have kept a ton of Reptiles from Amazon and Madagascan Tree Boas to Day Geckos, Tokay Geckos, Red Eyed Tree Frogs and a lot more. I was always amazed by fish tanks because of the plants and the fact you could add multiple species and watch an underwater world existing right in front of you, I just never had the money to get back into the hobby or the space but will be starting again very soon. My point is I notice that when I was a kid keeping Fish or Reptiles I was naturally a bit lazy and ignorant to certain things I know and understand now but when I was a kid some of my Tanks and Vivarium's I was lazy with ended up being some of the most thriving life-filled tanks I ever owned, when I got older and started micro managing small details with temperature, testing water levels and what plants or food work best, how many hours a day I kept light on it all worked but I never noticed anything better than when I just left the tank to do it's own thing like this guy said. Sure I would have glass covered in algae ect but the tank was living with me just feeding it for 4 years, I didn't even do proper water changes just scooped a bucket worth out and poured a bucked back in (in Scotland we have good water) the point is the fish and plants did everything I didn't do. Same with the Reptiles, I used to find gecko eggs all the time when I was young but when I got al=der and started a breeding project I could never get them to breed lol.
I have followed the father fish method and have been very successful. My fish get 1/8 of a teaspoon of food every 4 or 5 days and the aquarium THRIVES!
Hi Father Fish, im from Switzerland and i just build a Tank with your advices (a bit more than 150 Gallons) and it runs perfectly. im not finish yet because a did not put in some more Life from a stream or so or our Lake of Zuerich. But this will come next week. Thx again for your very informative videos theyre great. Cheers Joerg from Switzerland
I was just dealing with an algae bloom in the water in a 3 week old tank. I did a 33% water change to lower the concentration of nutrients. I put in a clean up crew of 10 rams horn snails and 2 mystery snails. I added double the plants I'm almost at a stem per gallon with java ferns and java moss . At The top of the tank I have 12 vine clippings with 6 inch roots. I'm going to watch the tank and see what happens. I'll try to do nothing if everyone is healthy and happy . Also going to be growing Moina water fleas with the 33% perfect green water I grabbed out of the tank earlier You're teaching me slowly thank you

Father Fish, you have made this hobby enjoyable again. I have kept fish since 2007, and there were many times I had become so frustrated that I was ready to give up. You have made it fun again. I started some resurrection jars, and I really enjoy seeing the life in there. I’m looking forward to cultivating the daphnia and other creatures to try and establish a food web for my tanks.
I am a firm believer in the less you mess with nature the less problems you will have. I've kept a 40 gallon breeder with 2 sponge filters, live plants assorted with tetras, corys, shrimp, and Bolivian rams and I haven't lost a fish. I only top the water off when it gets low.
I know nothing about fish. I have no connection with nature except me being alive as I live in a tightly packed city. I was just exploring pets or plants that don't trigger my allergies.
I wasn't sure if fish would fit it. But after listening to Father Fish, it's so fascinating. This is exactly what I wanted.
I started 2 tanks 3 months ago. Bought everything I thought I would need. At the time of my purchase I discovered Father Fish. Set my tanks up accordingly. Almost call went well until I over fed. I rebalance and almost all has been good. The introduction of new fish from the petstore being the main challenge. I have the test kits but haven’t even broken the seals on them as I watch my tank and let it communicate to me.
Thanks for sharing
We are so blessed to have him guiding us. Thank you for bringing me back to the hobby
Thank you father fish for your golden advice 😊 it really helped me with my aquarium hobby before i used to have a regular gravel tank with fake plants I used to do alot of water changes and heavy cleaning eventually my whole community of fish died off from the chlorine in the water I almost completely quit the hobby but ever since I found your channel I made myself my very own live aquarium with plants and a dirted subtrate i haven't done any water changes since its the 3rd month now and it's getting better my plants are growing rapidly that almost half the tank is covered my new fish loves their aquarium once again thank you god bless you sir 😁😊
Hey! How is your tank doing? Do you feed your fish or do they eat the daphnias/ostrapods if you have them in the tank? I really want to start a tank like yours but am unsure on what I need to make it happen. I don't want to use air pumps, filters, or anything like that. I just want my tank to be completely self-sufficient like an actual ecosystem.
I've created 2 farther fish tanks and when I'm at work I can't wait to get hime just to spend time watching it in all its glory
lols - "do nothing" is the most difficult task in the aquarium hobby for most people...
You're right about that lol. My aquarium will look perfect and no problems and I'm thinking " I know i need to be doing something"
I used to be one of those and it's one of the things that I really loved about all of the tech with high-tech tanks. Controllers pumps filters shit to maintain, but all that stuff to control the parameters perfectly and have everything set to some arbitrary value that is supposed to be ideal. I have done a complete 180 and boy am I happier with a tank that I set up a year and a half ago and maybe only done 5 or 6 water changes in the first couple of months and maybe one more few months ago
It’s so hard for me! I test the water and see problems and I immediately want to fix it 😫
@@NEnigma777 that’s been the hardest thing for me as well, my test kit is starting to gather dust and sometimes I’m tempted. But I know if I do I’ll start trying to fix things that don’t need fixing! Best of luck!
I had a shrimp colony that was starting to really take off. Then I decided there was fixing that needed to be done. Bad choice. The tank crashed because I fixed something that didn’t need to be fixed.
Making the story short, I bought a fish tank for my son and after few days, he lost the interest, so all the efforts was on me. I was very tired of changing water/filter and etc..... I was about to give up....Then I came to this channel/world. I watched several videos, and set up my tank with the help of materials from a pond near my house using whatever I could collect, snail, leaves, water plants, muds etc .... . It has been 6 days since, and I swear to god, NEVER/EVER my water tank been that much crystal clear.... I cant appreciate your help enough father fish...God bless you..
Your son will bevcome interested if he can collect from the wild for the tank.
My son and I met father fish on his aquarium back on Maryland some 7 years ago. Father fish has been detrimental for my son's interest in biology. He took Biology mostly due to this. Thanks father fish ❤
Jeez.....if father fish had been insturmental rather than detrimental yer kid would be bloody Jacques Cousteau by now!
Hey man, "detrimental" means "harmful."
Just a typo..no niggy
This is the most wholesome man I've seen on the fishtube. Nothing overwelming, just trust the process. Im waiting on the cloudiness of the water from the substrate to clear before I put my plants and fishes!
It's funny to see this video title. That message is one I've been thinking here lately. One example of that is taking one of the two lights off my 40 while I have the highlight plant in the back under the light and a low light plant in the front. I don't cut them and interfere very little. Works well.
Great advice!
Cloudy water scared me a year ago when I established my first aquarium only you calmed me down and I did nothing 😅😅😅
Guess what happened
My aquarium clears up by self and I haven't done any water changes ever
Thanks to you 👉 father fish
I just set up my 55 gallon into a natural aquarium today is day 1! So excited to just enjoy my tank and watch my fish.

I’ve had mine set up a week now I put one guppy in there and a tiny Paratilapia poleni baby in it at 2 cm I can see already there are tiny live forms in there I look through a magnifier, and the fish are hunting for food and eating, I will take the paratilapia out when I’ve set up a cichlid tank and he’s a little bigger, thankyou for all your information, you’re our David Attenborough of the aquatic world ❤
I dirted a 3 gallon tank. I've done nothing to it and it is absolutely thriving. Fish super colorful, plants literally growing up through the surface. I have a tiny hob filter that basically just gently circulates the water.
Hi Sir Can I use the beach sand as capping on the dirt I used in my aquarium?
Hello, I don't fully understand because my English is weak.
I have a 3.4 gallon tank. How can I install this system without using a heater filter as far as I understand.
I have 2 goldfish. Can I do it with them?
Can I get soil, sand and plants from nature?
As far as I understand from the video, we only use light support.
we Love Father Fish
Great😊 Iam one month very close to mother nature😊,....thank you father Fish.❤
I have done this in my 100 gallon. Took dirt from my property, capped with sand, planted live plants and added fish. Best tank ever. Clean and my tank is coming alive. Plants reproducing. Fish reproducing. Tanks alive!! Thank you FF!!
In my first tank after moving, I did a lot of things trying to fix the algae and ammonia. I did tests and when I found variations I did water changes and bought products to stabilize it. Total failure. Something similar happened with my plants, I took great care of them and they always dried up or rotted. Afterwards I simply left them in the yard alone and they grew like never before. That's when I realized that I have to leave them alone as the father fish says. I will try again with another tank. Thanks for sharing your wisdom
Started a tank following father fish's advice about 6 months ago. I've got to admit, I was a little skeptical about whether it would work when i started so I introduce a heap of plants and 20 or so ghost shrimp I got on a cheap sale. 6 months later and the tank continues to thrive but now with a variety of snails, shrimp and fish I gradually introduced over time. I've never made a water change since starting the tank 6 months ago. Thank you!
Hey! I am also thinking about starting a tank similar to yours. I hope to build a self-sustaining ecosystem for some fish. Do you use anything else for your tank except the tank itself, water, light source, plants, animals, and substrate? Any filters or air pumps? Also, if I were to keep some fish in their (I want to keep them without having to feed them), do you think I would need to introduce a food source like daphnias/ostrapods?
Ive still got a filter running for now. Eventually i will look to remove it. As for food web, I'm growing daphnia outdoors but have trouble keeping them alive in my tank... they get smashed by my danios. Other than that, ive got some microworms and other microorganisms that were introduced thanks to FF's creek culture cultivation method.@connorkim7306
Ive got about 30 fish and shrimp and 50 or so snails. Haven't changed the water once in almost 9 months now other than the odd top off
In China there was an ancient way to keep fish, which we call 古法养鱼 Gu Fa Yang Yu, it’s basically doing the same. Dirt in huge china water vase, any clean water sat for a day(it’s called trap water), water plant, lotus, fish, TA-DA! Same philosophy.
Dirted tanks are ancient.
This is a wise and experienced man. Is the first time I saw one of his videos and I am grateful and amazed. Just learned a magnificent lesson of how humans could bring nature to home. Everything is about respect. Thank you so much for sharing that amazing lesson.
Amazing advice takes all the stress out of fishkeeping 👌
I thank Father Fish for I've got his advice almost a year ago and since than, my 95.4 lt tank is so wonderfull I can't discribe. Every word he says is good to provide knology into our tanks.
Thanks again, Old Man! You are a wonderfull guy.
May our Lord bless You.

This is the video that motivated me to finally start an aquarium. Watching a lot of other videos it's easy to get stressed out I was making mistakes but a month later I have a great little creek bed tank with the plants growing astoundingly quickly and the fish playfully interacting with each other, exploring the plants, nibbling on algae, good to come back to this video and be reassured that everything's fine! Thanks for sharing all your experience.
This was such a beautiful vid! Thank you for helping all of us with our tanks!
I tried your method on my anglefish tank. It's been a year and half with no water change and doing nothing and they're thriving. I changed my other two tanks to a natural aquarium as well. Everyone is happy. All I do is dumping my glass of water when I pass by the fish tanks and feed them once a week sometimes twice 😊. Thank you father fish
Love it! ❤️
Ive instituted alot of your ideas in my first planted aquarium. The result? No ammonia/nitrite readings in the middle of the process...yet the plants grow like theyre Co2 infused, at least doubling in size in less than 3 weeks. Plants are a priceless end game for all things which can harm the ecosystem. Its incredible witnessing this.
Happy Saturday FF🙏
I love the video! I learned the hard way by always playing around and thinking I needed to fix everything in the tank. I wish I came across your videos sooner. Spent way too much time and money on chemicals and trying to fix every little thing. I don't test my water nor water change any more. The hobby is way less stressful now. My original tank was gravel and now is capped with sand and a ton of plants. Thank you for sharing your wisdom
I have a 15 gallon Fluvel Flex with two large sprites, a medium rose sword three java ferns and some sprigs of dwarf hair grass. I have 13 fish and a couple of snails. The substrate is a fluvel soil capped with sand. I am wondering if I can introduce some culture. Due to current health issues I cant go to a local stream. Is there another way to introduce the culture to start the food web? I really like your youtubes. Thank you for educating me.
Yes. Set a bucket outdoors and put a little soil and some dried leaves in it., You can even add a bit of table scraps, no meat. Let it sit for about a month. In a week or so you will begin to see microscopic life. Start adding some of that material to your tank, very small amounts. Then add more dried leaves to your tank.
@@FatherFishI think a problem with cultures whether using creek debris etc or starting your own is harmful pests like damsel or dragon fly larvae. If you're a shrimp keeper, your shrimps will get eaten so unfortunately you have to keep an eye out but the more stacked with plants and decor your tank is, the harder it will be - maybe impossible - to track down these predators. I noticed about 2-3 of these in my small (non natural) tank but had not been able to see them all at once, after watching the tank.
What a wonderful teacher you are Father Fish!
@Father Fish
I'd like to see a video or a short on how to protect planted tanks when you have to move. I'm moving to another state. How do i keep my dirted tanks from being tossed around and ruined?
draw the water down to one inch or less. Carry the tank, anything more than 55gal may require help. The tank can be moved successfully with a small amount of water covering the soil and plants.
been researching and getting into keeping fish to make up for my mistakes as a kid with a betta I had, Father fish you seem so nice and havign a tank where I do nothign but sit back and watch my fish has been a dream. you inspire me! Hopefully I'll set up a tank or a ressurection jar this year :)
Great video
I cannot express enough how much fish really seem to enjoy live plants. i used to use fake decorations. but when I switched to live plants they seemed happier. like, they go out of their way to swim thru/among/betwixt the leaves!
i had an amazon sword plant that ended up getting massive. it lived for several years. would cut it back and it constantly grew new leaves.
Nice video!
Trimming and replanting stem plants is also beneficial especially if you didnt get enough plants in the first place you can fill out some of the area that dont have plants 👍👍 this is a great video father fish😎😎
I noticed no filter recommend. Is that right? No sponge or bubbler?.
Guppies and gold fish don't mind being with out pumps. It depends what fish you want. FF always uses sponge bubblers
Did not mention it.
IU like to use a sponge filter to provide a slight current.
I'm raising Pleco's so I'm using a water jet set up. But yes, you got to have a filter of some kind, depending on the size of your tank
@@FatherFish thank you

I started aquarism less than a month ago. That Robbie got me! I'm looking for information and ended up discovering his channel. Thank you for your commitment to sharing your knowledge and experiences. Greetings from Rio de Janeiro - Brazil!
Ya know, Father fish kinda reminds me of Moses back in the day. You know leading his people out of Egypt to a better life. Father fish is kinda doing the same with these natural ecosystems, perhaps not to a better life but to a way of peace. A way so that we can come home to not trouble or strife, but peace
Love my new tank. This is my first planted tank and it's doing great and I am doing nothing but enjoying it. Thanks for the great advice.

Thankyou for not a new message but a reinforcement, a reminder if you will. Patients is a virtue. All the tests in the world wont give you a fraction of information that nature will feed you with OVER TIME. The caveat of course is that you need to become very familiar with your aquarium, and watch..and listen.
Father Fish, I adore you! I love watching your videos and shorts. You have inspired me to give it a go. I just ordered my plants from you. I have everything else already so as soon as my plants arrive I am diving in, I am so excited!
I tried fish tanks with all the filters and pumps and stuff 30 years ago and failed miserably. I swore I would never keep a fish tank again. I didn’t understand the science of it. One of the reasons I adore you so much is because you break things down where it’s almost impossible to fail using easy to follow step by step instructions. I love the love you have for nature. I just found out a few weeks ago that these tanks you talk about existed! How long have I been under that rock? 😂
Thank you for sharing your wisdom with us
God bless
Can I make a dirted tank with a 90 gallon aquarium?
Of course. It’s just an extremely tiny pond.
Definitely 👍
Yep I have 1
No. It has to be 80 or 100 gallon. 90 galon is in the anti-goldilocks zone where the fish won't thrive.
Have a well established betta tank after following your videos. It is about 5 months old filled up with plants and shrimp and the Betta. Ive never been so engaged to fish keeping before ive tried different fish keeping methods and different fish but it never clicked. Im SO Glued on my 10 gallon tank I have fallen in love and cant wait to do a small shrimp only tank😊
What should i do with my sand being a mess full of mulm and fish poop
add more sand for the detritus to precipitate into.
@@FatherFish what depth do you recommend the sand cap to be, I have it at 4 inches on top of 2 inches of dirt
@@robertwaldner9357 sounds like you have enough. Are there lots of plants, catfish, shrimp, snails etc?
@DashDrones I have a lot of all the things you suggested except catfish I only have 7 pygmy corydorys
@@robertwaldner9357hmmm, what's the water flow like?
This man is very wise and full of goodness! Could listen to him all day!
Thank you Father Fish, for all your content. I really appreciate you sharing all your knowledge with us. Lots of love your way from germany, and all the good things too! ♥
100 watts per 20 gallons? How can that be achieved? A 48 inch fluval plant 3.0 only had 58 Watts?
I would need 375watts for my 75 gallon???? That's pretty much impossible 😂
I am currently using 100W led flood lights.
@@FatherFish yep although flood lights are completely different to a Fluval Plant 3.0. A dedicated full spectrum led should be around 10w per 10 US gallon
I'm guessing you have LED floods that are rated 100 watts incandescent but are actually only 13 watts of LED. Would that be accurate?@@FatherFish
@FatherFish yes but those are 100-watt incandescent equivalent they are probably 15 or 20 watts of actual power.
@@BassManStrikesyes I would like to know as well. On my 40 litre FF tank (10 gallon) I was using 30W LED spotlighys GU10. Which is 60W LED for 20 gallons. It was a shallow 25 cm tall tank so for deeper I could go higher. Right now I have a 20W LED flood lamp on a shallow 5 gallon and it is not very bright but I don’t go for long duration, only a few hours. Sunlight would be easily double that light or more.
I just discovered you r channel because some friends gave me a bowl with a betta fish, so i'm searching how to make his life happier. I love your wisdom and your kindness, you remind me of a french great man named Pierre Rabhi... Thank you so much for your nice advices.
I feel you! It's easy to get carried away. Just set a budget and stick to it, right
Baba vidyolarını defalarca izleyip her seferinde unuttuğum bazı bilgilerini tazeliyorum .İyiki varsın.
I started a planted tank on Sep 29th, 2024, to be exact. I've tried a few times before with never really having any luck, the last tank I had set up lasted about a year or so, but it always looked scraggly and depleted. I never knew to just leave the light on and do nothing else, as I was doing 20% water changes weekly along with my other non-planted tanks and only ran the light for 6hrs a day.
The 5gal I have now that's been set up for 2-1/2 months looks fifty times better than my last set up all because I do nothing, I top off the water when it's low and feed the four guppies maybe 2-3 times a week. The new plants I added last weekend already started sprouting new growth and are thriving, the Java Moss I added when I first set up the tank that was all brown and dying has already started to green up as well.
The only thing I mad about is that I never seen Father Fish's videos before explaining just how simple it really is, after winter I'm going to start another planted tank with a 10gal I have laying around a Hygger plant light I had from the last time I tired and start looking into some nicer plants as I believe I can get them to thrive now with all this new found wisdom I have of planted tanks.👍👍👍
I've always felt intimidated by the thought of managing an aquarium. You have given me so much confidence!

Absolutely love this video sir! Everything you are showing us in one video. I think this video will be very helpful to everyone from just researching your style a tank to someone already neck deep into them. Your way is so awe inspiring honesty and makes me feel grateful I found you on here to inspire me. Thank you sir…. And thank you again for sharing a clip of my channel in your b roll 🙏😁👍❤️
Glad it was helpful! Wonderful to share the tanks of all my friends.
I got a new 100 gal aquariums and follow your instructions put it together 3 week’s ago so far it looks great 🎉🎉
Your ethos on fish keeping is in alignment with and proves terrain theory.. Germs are not the problem unless the organism is sick from malnutrition and or poisoned. Great content.
His method works great. I've only had my tank set up for 4 months now, and plants and fish are doing great, and the substrate is showing no sign of losing nutrients (common issue with the Walstad/NPT tanks I've set up using soil with gravel cap). As a result, I'd say plant growth has been slower overall, but the growth is very healthy and algae is almost absent. I'd highly recommend this method for anyone wanting to set up their first planted tank. If you follow his directions, you'll have a tank that more or less takes care of itself.
🙂Hello. Thank you very much for your video. I watched and read a lot about aquariums. Sometimes I had a lot of ideas in my head on how to make a good aquarium. Now I know that nature, which I love so much, will take care of itself. And that's what's beautiful. Thank you.😀
My son 💙 has followed your instructions saved my fish and we have a fantastic tank and very very happy fish ❤
Thank you Father Fish
Thank you for this video father fish! I unknowingly have been following your advice ever since, way long before finding your channel. I can truly testify that you are a thousand percent right!
Dont create problems where they do not exist...nice line father fish, glad to have you sir❤
I agree with this, I noticed that when I clean my tank, do partial water change, that's when my fish die. I didn't clean it up for months, I let the algae grow, I sh*t you not, the fish thrived. I just don't understand why others have to be too technical with this stuff.

I have kept Tropical / Freshwater fish twice in my life, once as a kid and again after I was older and wanted to introduce my kids to them when they were really small. Over the years I have kept a ton of Reptiles from Amazon and Madagascan Tree Boas to Day Geckos, Tokay Geckos, Red Eyed Tree Frogs and a lot more. I was always amazed by fish tanks because of the plants and the fact you could add multiple species and watch an underwater world existing right in front of you, I just never had the money to get back into the hobby or the space but will be starting again very soon. My point is I notice that when I was a kid keeping Fish or Reptiles I was naturally a bit lazy and ignorant to certain things I know and understand now but when I was a kid some of my Tanks and Vivarium's I was lazy with ended up being some of the most thriving life-filled tanks I ever owned, when I got older and started micro managing small details with temperature, testing water levels and what plants or food work best, how many hours a day I kept light on it all worked but I never noticed anything better than when I just left the tank to do it's own thing like this guy said. Sure I would have glass covered in algae ect but the tank was living with me just feeding it for 4 years, I didn't even do proper water changes just scooped a bucket worth out and poured a bucked back in (in Scotland we have good water) the point is the fish and plants did everything I didn't do. Same with the Reptiles, I used to find gecko eggs all the time when I was young but when I got al=der and started a breeding project I could never get them to breed lol.
I started a 10 g tank 3 weeks ago following Father Fish method and so far so good. My plants and fish and shrimps are happy.
If you do nothing, you'll soon have snails.
@@RackwitzG excellent I love snails!

This is gold. GOLD! Thank you sir!
You have taught me much more than fish husbandry. I am so glad to learn from you. Thank you.
I have followed the father fish method and have been very successful. My fish get 1/8 of a teaspoon of food every 4 or 5 days and the aquarium THRIVES!
I love your vision! Many thanks ❤
Hi Father Fish, im from Switzerland and i just build a Tank with your advices (a bit more than 150 Gallons) and it runs perfectly. im not finish yet because a did not put in some more Life from a stream or so or our Lake of Zuerich. But this will come next week. Thx again for your very informative videos theyre great.
Cheers Joerg from Switzerland
I was just dealing with an algae bloom in the water in a 3 week old tank. I did a 33% water change to lower the concentration of nutrients. I put in a clean up crew of 10 rams horn snails and 2 mystery snails. I added double the plants I'm almost at a stem per gallon with java ferns and java moss . At The top of the tank I have 12 vine clippings with 6 inch roots.
I'm going to watch the tank and see what happens. I'll try to do nothing if everyone is healthy and happy .
Also going to be growing Moina water fleas with the 33% perfect green water I grabbed out of the tank earlier
You're teaching me slowly thank you
