19th Month - (It’s a BOY!) NO filter, NO CO2, NO Ferts 5 Gallon Nano Tank
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 вер 2024
- This is 19th month update. Turns out, Loomster is a sparkling gourami male. He started croaking mostly at night. He started to hunt the shrimp, but I haven’t seen him eat one yet. The yellow tuxedo guppies are fighting often. I never knew these guys were so violent toward each other. They don't bother anything else in the tank, though. I did see one nibble at the nerite's antennas. The plants are growing very fast. I think it’s b/c the temps are higher these days.

It appears I did an oopsie. The entire video is supposed to be in the 500s, not 600s. The very first scene is supposed to be day 563, not day 663. I go by the date in the camera file. I made a mistake in the very first scene, and the rest became wrong. It'll be the correct days in the next video.
You could make the best of it and start experimenting with alternate timelines - eventually the inhabitants of both timelines meet and exchange information with each other and everybody learns a valueable lesson along the way.
Hopefully you can continue doing this past 600 days! Love this tank. I’m thinking of doing my own. Also, what do you do with all the hornwort and duckweed? You should sell it or make a goldfish tank and feed it to them. Love what your doing!
I love the little fishes
yes i was thinking that, it hasn't pass to much since I saw the two months update.
How do you clean those tanks? I'm interested because I want to start so thank like those too. I don't know what they're called also?
"Whee"
Never thought I'd find a shrimp so adorable
@@tomi327 idk you're doing pretty good already, just keep up the good work and you'll grow I think
Hahaha.. this made me laugh but it’s true
@@tomi327 i'll give you a sub
These surfer-shrimps get all the girls.
@@fxausmwk5671 lmfaoooo
You may not have the flashiest aquarium setup but the attention to detail, thoughtfulness and care that went into this series is incredible. Glad I’m addicted to your series instead of Netflix.
@@tomi327 jesus fucking christ man just shut tf up ffs
@@asianarowana9780 why are u pissed off at him
@@jathkankanam he's self-advertising, but in a way to make it seem like he's complementing this youtube video.
@@baribaroory6106 soo and how do you promote yourself without being insulted?
@@ishanxeno5586 By collabing. Btw I went to his channel and his videos are very similar to FTFH.
The Nerite is the John Deacon of this aquarium. Quiet, understated but an essential part of the magic.
Without him hell would follow
4:49 "they behave whenever im nearby" God is watching Lol!
lol their like mini israelites
Wow...it’s already been 19 months...this is soo great and extremely soothing..keep em coming dude
The music is from Erik Satie.
Gymnopedie
Yeah
Very relaxing video
Time sure flys by when you get older.
“The Nerite Snail lifespan is about one year, give or take. Sometimes Nerites die a week or so after being added to a tank, with others from the same batch living around 2 years or more”
Ohhh no....
I can't express how much I adore these videos. They're so calming and beautiful. Thank you so much for taking the time to film your tanks for us.
Dude I love these videos. Hopefully I can make a shrimp tank just like this!
The Old Song is back Yayyy !!
thanks for listening to the community and what a great video tbh :D
Composer: Eric Satie
Gymnopedie # ? (can't be bothered to look it up). Satie is great imho. Very soothing.
The downvotes are actually upvotes from the upsidedown shrimp.
Ahahhahahahahhahahahahhahahaah 😂
*a shrimp got stuck*
Shrimp: "oh well, geez man."
I love these updates. Watching this tiny ecosystem flourish is extremely rewarding.
you should rename this series "A Few Minutes Of Peace"
Whenever I watch your videos I never want them to end! They’re my little piece of calm.
Thanks for watching.....?
Seriously......😕
Thank you for uploading such amazing videoss..
I feel really invested in Loomster, lol. He colored up beautifully!
I don't know why but I never get fed up of the music, goes so well with the footage..
"Thanks for watching"
Thanks for making them ^^
I like your style of filming and editing. Extremely relaxing and interesting at the same time. Keep it up :)

The Lion King Iconic Moment
I’m totally hooked. I actually cried when my fave fish ship broke up and then got all smiley again when they had more bubs. Brand new subscriber and totally addicted. 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
This is incredibly fascinating. The amount of detail your camera shows blows my mind
I opened this at the barber shop and got a free haircut
I'm interested ....Thanks for keeping it real..
Nerite dont care about the rules, nerite will BRING YOU DOWN !
#stanwithnerite
The most satisfying thing about all of your videos is the editing in time with the music... That, and the obvious care, knowledge, and dedication you put into every aspect of the tanks and the lives you are handling. Love your channel!
Just wanted to say how grateful I am for your beautiful videos. I watched them whenever I took study breaks in undergraduate bacteriology. They really helped me clear my mind. I hope you and our water friends are all doing well.
Binge watching the series to catch up.. so much drama in this episode!!! Those guppies best settle down.. 👀
@Elle PS isn't it great?! It's like catching up on Days of Our Lives lol haven't watched that in years but I felt like I was with this lol
@Elle PS I totally get you love! I'm right there with ya! I love animals more than humans... I feel anyone who gets these videos, and my silt comments, likely falls into the same category as I do! 😅💚
Things are so different comparing to first months, it's amazing how fish tanks change. They are like mini worlds. They are created by someone who loves them, filled, they evolve, generate their own systems, and just keep going and changing
These updates have made my day 19 times.
Finally a new episode! Now I don't have to re-watch all the previous ones on a loop
My anxiety level went from a usual 5-6/10 to a 2/10, just from this video. Keep em coming :)
I love these videos. They somehow help me when I’m sad, thank you and keep making more 🥺❤️
Honestly this series is so ridiculously gorgeous... I love it. And I love Loomster!
It's Sat 0039. Almost about to go to sleep. Then, this came up. Sleep later, watch this first.
Now you will sleep better.
Man, who needs meditation when u have this?...
It’s so calming to watch, especially since Clair de lune is playing in the background．
Love the Loomster! Thanks very, very much for these uploads. Love from Florida 💕🐠
Would you consider showing us those jars where you grow plants ?
I started a "grow jar" a month ago and my plants have been growing really well, thanks to Foo
Fabouls I started a dirted tank and I’m so proud of it , foo Inspired me to start it
@@nukeno0dle931 It's a good way for me to save money since plants are crazy expensive here... He sure inspires a lot of people 😁
Where is that vid? Curious if I should try growing aquatic plants in my window sill....
Alexandra Huang I think it was a few months ago , not sure on the exact vid but he only showed it for like 3 mins
I've still got a long way to go before my aquascaping skills come anywhere near yours, but one day, i want to have a tank as good as yours.
Your videos bring me an immense amout of inner peace. Thank you for making them and good work with the little fellas
This is a very beautiful video keep up the good vids love from the Philippines
Hey I visited you're channel its awesome too you should make the fish more diverse overall it's a great channel you just need more exposure
I am truly in love with this fascinating little world you are kind enough to share with us--- it absolutely makes my day when I see the entire tank flourishing--- and then you enrich their little lives with the different food offerings !!!
Makes me smile...
Thank you soooooo much for sharing!
Peace
The whole video is so beautiful.
Your aquarium is so caring and lovely.
Thank you for uploading.
Well, congratulations. I have now purchased an aquarium. And a light. And some plants. The light was the most expensive... Anyways, Now I'm waiting for that thing to settle, and then I'll put in some shrimps, and, if all goes well, eventually some fish. Until then I can finish reading that book you recommended. This is what happens, you're getting other people hooked!
I'm too scared to attempt to set up my own planted shrimp tank. So I come and watch your amazing work. It so beautiful. It almost makes me brave enough to set my own up.
Never knew that watching someone watching their tanks while subtitling the videos is kinda fun... the dedication in this video is awesome in its own way !
The guppies are very striking in appearance. Nice addition.
Yes! Thanks so for bringing Sartie’s soundtracks back!!!
I haven't been here long, but this channel is so amazing and I already love it! You're so dedicated to all your fish.
Some of the most relaxing content on youtube, by far!
Already almost 2 years, what a majestic tank.
I feel like your channel gives my life more meaning than going to work everyday.
I like that loomster smart looking fish. Never seen that one before.
Those are some really dope colored guppies! I remember starting off with 4 Guppies and 6 months later I stopped counting at like 30! All different colors I love guppies!
Just want to thank you Foo, your videos really inspired my 2 student project films for college and I managed to get a distinction in my moving image studies. Hope things are good with you and keep up the great content 🤘
Found your videos at 4 am when I couldn't sleep because of stress. I now love your videos. They calm me down and they are fascinating to watch.
Thanks for the content man, it really made it easy for me to just relax and reflect on my day and also, think of the fishes out in the wild. This quarantine really bombarded the hell out of me. Quarantine here in our country has been on for six weeks and ai just discovered your channel a week ago. I'm dealing with some serious mental health problem and this video really just calms me down. Thanks, hope your marine creatures are safe, and you also,
It's like "The Constant Gardener" - nano tank version. Good job, mate.
The guppies are that couple that fight constantly, but would rather be together than to go through life alone.
Your cinematography is incredible.
My friend, the guppies were an excellent choice.
Thank you so much for making this series. I look forward to the new episode all month long!! I even started my own planted aquarium because of your beautiful videos. Now I spend hours staring at my little friends and filming them. Someday I'll have to make my own compilation and share!
3:00 Why are you running? WHY ARE YOU RUNNING? 😂😂😂
I started watching this series when I was in my second year of university. In the fall I will begin my final year. Its crazy how fast time goes by, thank you for putting so much effort and time into this series
I remember when I first found watched the setup video. I don't regret any of the time I have spent admiring your aquarium. Your videos inspired me to get back into fish keeping and now I tend to a happy school of tetras
Never thought that this kind of wonderful channel is exist. I'm your new subscriber about an hour ago, but I think i would love to watch your entire videos😁
Watching the boiled spinach leaves getting stripped down to their venation to the music of Satie is my best part of the video.
I almost fell asleep at my desk. It's so relaxing...
The shots of the shrimps running upside down were amazin
Screw Netflix! Watching shrimp eat is the most riveting thing I've seen all day! 😍😍😍🤣🤣🤣
I can't believe it've been 19 months and you still able to keep the same music and who can blame you it so soothing
I love your videos. Have you ever considered making a really long video just so we can have it as a virtual tank? It's so peaceful I could watch for hours. Thank you for your videos. I have a small tank and I'm fascinated by this method. When you know better you do better. Thanks again.
I love these updates, such a pretty tank and chilled out presentation.
I really love your series. Thank you for update!
It is so addictive to watch the fish and shrimps and you put so much care and time when you care for your fish- love it!
Thank you so much for sharing such amount of beautiful and inspiring work /passion. Found your videos yesterday and couldnt stop to watch them till the last one today. Had 4 tanks runnig about 20 years ago, and right now, after falling in love again with your videos i cant wait to go to a shop to buy few things and try start a tank in this way. Probably the most interesting, educative and nice to see aquaristiq videos i have ever seen… more please! Love from the Basque Country !
Watching this is the closest I'll get to having my own fish. I love this tank.
The best time of the month has finally come. See you next time!
Idk why but my favorite moment in every video is when you drop the boiled spinach and the shrimps eating them, it's satisfying to see the big spinach slowly being eaten away by them haha
Fantastic videos! Enjoy watching them all the time. Please, add more videos more often, they are so cool to watch. Warm greetings from Russia.
I usually never really comment, but I just wanted to say that I enjoy watching your videos so much, they're just so soothing and always put me in a good mood. You can tell these videos are made with so much care and passion. Have a good day! Greetings from Germany!
Alot of great shots ! Your videos always make me smile and calm down
I have been binge watching your entire list of videos and they have been helping me unwind from a stressful day at work, so thanks! Subscribed!
beautiful, I've done one gallon I hope to see it like that in a few months
Thank you so much for continuing the amazing series on your channel. I love tuning in and watch the episodes as soon as I can! Beautiful
I swear your videos are the coolest and most soothing things to ever watch, I watched all of them lol
It's soooo peaceful
Thank you sooo much
❤
Your videos are beautiful and peaceful, I love watching them! Your attention to detail and comments make these tiny little creatures so interesting to watch, that I wish I had some of my own. Maybe I’ll just try a goldfish in a bowl first....
Guppies supposed to be the mermaids of the tank and now acting like fighters. We feel your couple, guppies, it ain’t easy everyday.
Also Loomster, don’t eat the shrimp I feel you too !
Anyway thanks for your great content I love your tank and your choice of population every time.
