5ft Planted Aquarium and Nano Aquascapes! Fishroom Tour
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 вер 2024
- In this video we check out my friend Maggie's awesome fish tanks and aquascapes! Maggie owns a couple of large tanks, and lots of nano tanks which she loves to experiment with different fish and scapes in. She also has quite the talent for growing plants which helps to balance out my deficit in this area. I hope you enjoy checking out Maggie's tanks!
Also... If this video gets 3000 likes we will go and do another fish catching/collecting video :D So if you'd like to see this make sure you give the video a thumbs up!
I will also be uploading my Lake Tanganyika African Cichlid scape soon too, so be sure to subscribe so you don't miss it :) There is lots of great content from here in Australia coming up so stay tuned and hit that sub button if you want to see more from this channel!

I cant believe such a beautiful and healthy planted tank could be working so well with no Co2 and also with no many other requirements. I think Maggie has done an amazing job there. I'm just looking forward to get my tank like that. Great video. Greetings 😊.
I know right!! Maggie does such a great job to keep it balanced. Thank you heaps for the support 😊🙏
The aquarium queens 😂 she has really nice taste in aquascapes, Great video again!
Hahaha, I love it 🤣 She sure does! Thank you so much 😊🙌
Beautiful scapes and great choice of fish (Those CPD's and The Agazzi's Oh my!) I loved the Joey, Ohio rescue and The American tour itself! Keep it up young lady, Your such a doll, I say that with mad respect. Subscriber, Liker and Bell ringer...........Frank
Thank you so much Frank 🙏 You're the best!! I'm so glad to hear you enjoyed all the videos 😊
That is an amazing looking planted community tank 😮‼️🌿🐠🐟🌺‼️ Great video 👏‼️
Beautiful tanks especially the 5 foot.For the water box nice school of Congo tetras and a few clown loach and laser corydoras.
Hello! Hi Kaity and Maggie - you are the best! Thank you for this program/show/video/aquarium-fish tank experience! Very nice, and it sems that in Down Under the best aqua scapers/fish lovers and fish tank keepers are females! You are cool! And nice fish, lovely plants and tanks! Have a nice day, keep inspiring other people! /Mats
Thank you so much Mats!! 😊🤗
aquariums are super clean n clear
Her tanks are beautiful. I especially love the 5’ tank. Thank you so much for sharing with us. ❤❤
Thank you!! I'm really glad you enjoyed it ❤️
Congrats! Some very impressive tanks with interesting species and creative scapes ^^ thanks for thid vid 😁
Thank you for watching!! 🙏
Oh my goodness I am in love... oh and nice tanks too
Maggie’s planted tanks are cool as.
I’m mainly a reefer, have a few saltwater tanks but I do have 1 oversized 5ft freshwater peaceful community tank & if Maggie wanted to rehome her Cherry Barbs from her waterbox I’d love to give them a home
Maggie's so beautiful and that is always a good thing , unless they're mean . Lol
Well, Kaity . . . another fantastic share! Thanks for this, and thanks to Maggie too!
Thank you so much 😊🙏 I'm glad you enjoyed it!! 😄
I saw you in king of diy channel so I came here to watch your video ❤ from India 🇮🇳
Yayyy!! Welcome to the channel, we're happy to have you here 😄🐟💕
The dog says enough fish, pet me....
She was like "ok that's enough of the fish" the moment we began 😂
Yasssss. I'm a planted tank girl.... love
You're going to love this one then 🤣🦐🌿❤️
@@Kaityscichlids I did!!
Great tour. Came to see Cichlids stayed for the plants
Hahaha, I love it 🤣 I did the same lol
Very interesting
Katie needs to step up her aquarium plant game a bit more 😁
...Maybe one day 🤣
Maggie's 5 ft tank is beautiful.
I love it!!
I was so ready for the Lake Tang Cichlid tank build. I have one and love it. This was a fun video though. I'll be waiting.
Not long now 😁
Maggie hat ohne großen Einsatz von Hilfsmitteln schöne Aquarien! 👍
Mbuna all the way for that other tank...I wish I had spare tanks to wonder about fish stocking, but then again, I wouldn't want all the extra maintenance that goes with that wonder!
I like this idea a lot but I may be biased 😅 Or even a Tropheus tank would be cool I think hehe
The dog 😊😢
Nice. I’m still dreaming of a 5ft tank. Someday….
One day!! 🙌 They're so worth it I think! I'm a big fan of big tanks
@@Kaityscichlidsانتي جميله جدا اريد ان اقبل اقدامك
Awesome video as always 😉
Thank you 😊🙏
Such a nice wholesome video ❤
❤️❤️❤️
Co2 ve canlılar denge üzerine olmalı. Tecrübe işi.
❤❤❤amazing❤❤❤
❤️❤️❤️
🏆👍....
That 5 foot is insane. Truly beautiful. Maybe one day I'll be in a house or an apartment where I feel comfortable enough for a tank that size. Also, Kaity, I think it'd be a good project for you to start a small planted tank. Nothing big but just getting the feel of it. No fish, just plants.
I dived in with two feet when I first started this hobby and to date, I have still not been able to grow Jungle Val. It's fascinating really because I initially bought it cause everyone says it's easy! My recommendation, however, to replace your valliseneria is dwarf saggitaria. Much easier, somehow and is my most prolific plant.
I've tried a few planted tanks but they never seem to stick for me 😩 Maybe one day though! I'll never say never. I might even try my hand at a terrarium at some point soon 🤔
👍🏻👍🏻
So beautiful tanks, waiting you to set up your planted tank, I'm sure it's a game change once you started it
Hmmmm, maybe one day 🤣
It's very good to have a friend with whom to share what we like. Your friend is a professional 😊 congratulations to both of you for such a good video.
5.46 Am here in Iowa, USA
Good morning to you!! 😁👋
💛❤💜
Awesome vlog as usual Kaity!!! Maggie's aquascape is also amazing!!! Forcasting a team up!? you two would make a great team!! :)
Thank you so much!! I'd love to do some more videos with Maggie in the future 😁
Aren't you worried about fish jumping out of that tank in your bedroom? The water line is so high and there's no top?
All my fish seem to jump out, but not Maggie's!! She hasn't lost any from jumping. I think the tanks being quite heavily planted is probably helping
What was the tank on the counter behind you guys at the end of the video. How come you didn't show that one?
I think those were just some empty tanks sitting on the table
Hey Kaity does Maggie have a fw light on her Saltwater tank? I would love to do that?
Yes! I think it's a freshwater one 🤔
@@Kaityscichlids interesting would love to see how it grows her corals!
@@Kaityscichlids would love to find out her light and light schedule if you would be able to ask her for me?
Hello Kaity,
Thank you for the effort you put into your videos. Question please: How come hang on the back outside filters aren't very popular? I've seen canister filters on your tanks. In this video, Maggie has a sump filter. Is it because the hang on the back outside filters don't offer enough room for biological filtration? Thanks
Hi there!! Thank you so much 🤗 As far the HOB filters go, yes, it's mainly because they're quite small because they need to be light enough to hang on the side of the tank. They are really just the same as a canister filter, but attached to the side of the tank. Some people might also opt for a canister filter to hide the filter underneath the tank too
I can sympathize with this young ladies father My niece cleaned out all my driftwood stash then invited me over for dinner then had me aquascape her new tank and somehow now has a dozen of MY cardinal tetras and a pair of my angel fish . I have no idea how she managed to get me to hand them over 😮
Ppl talk. 🙄
Is maggie single?!
She is not! 🤣
Does Maggie have her own channel or a facebook page or something? Her tanks are really cool and I'd love to ask her a few questions!
She doesn't at the moment unfortunately! 😩 I'm trying to convince her to make a page 😁
@@Kaityscichlids I hope she does! I really love the reef and id love to try something like that!
@@Kaityscichlids We want to see her dad's discus tank. Plzzzzz .
Beautiful scap ❤ .. going to copy 😂
For the Danio do a pair with javamoos for breed with a root for seek and hide breedgame
The big tanks has started to bow out in the middle, I hope it doesn't break soon 🥺😧
Maggie will you marry me? 💍
Nicee
You didnt spend enough time on the saltwater aquarium ma'am! 😂
😂😂😂 I'll go back and do an update on it when it's grown in a bit 😁
Nice setups! BTW, that little green thing in the saltwater tank is Chaetomorpha linum, usually just called "chaeto" (pronounced "keeto"). It's a very useful algae, as Maggie noted it's usually found in refugiums. It pulls nutrients from the water as well as serving as a great environment for microfauna like copepods.
Ahh thank you so much! That is good to know!
😊very beautiful tanks and fishes great 👍 and
Bravo from Romania Dracula land 🎉❤
Thank you 😁🎉
You were using fluval fx6.
Can you please tell if you bought it in Australia or from somewhere else?
If from Australia then whether its 110v or 220v?
As far as I know voltage in Australia in houses is supposed to be 220v.
I got mine from Tech Den in Australia! I'm not too sure how to check the voltage on it 😮
@@Kaityscichlids its usually mentioned on plug.
Its okay if you can't find.
Thanks for trying
5ft aquascape is great. I may have missed something, but I didn't see much flow in the nanoreef. Its always a shock for your first reef how much flow they can handle. "Low flow" for your softies is typically recommended at 20 times an hour "turn over" between all sources.
Colour full of beautiful 👌👍
You should do more with Maggie. Great team!!
I would love to 😁😁
Please pet that dog. Lol😅
DW she got plenty of pets (eventually 😂) and many treats lol
so beautiful, i wish i could afford a co2 setup but i do low tech tanks mostly, definitely more struggles with algae this way 😢
Yes it makes it so much tougher to balance the lighting and algae it seems!! I love the 5ft tank without CO2 though
Wow just beautiful aquariums. Great video Kathy.
Thank you 😁😁
Absolutely beautiful tanks!
So much fun! I love these little fish room tours 🙂! I didn't see any rainbow fish and I know you have access to Nick who can get you some amazing specimens. That would be fun to see in that WaterBox tank!
That's actually not a bad idea!! That would make quite a nice little rainbowfish tank 😁
Those are real tanks!! Congrats!!
They sure are!! And so well balanced too
Awesome tanks. Glad to know I'm the only one with buckets of random plants sitting around. Lol
I don't even have planted tanks and I still end up with buckets of plants sitting around somehow 😂
Maggie’s tanks are wonderful, love her energy. Keep up the great job Katie!
Thank you heaps Anthony 😊🙏
Does Maggie have Instagram?
Not a fish Instagram currently!
