- Everyone wants crystal clear aquarium water, but it can be so elusive! Follow these five tips to get your aquarium water crystal clear, and you will be on your way to having your tropical fish look like they're floating in air. While this works for African cichlids and American cichlids, it is also great for other fish combinations, like community tanks and other cichlid tanks. Thanks for watching, and please give this video a "like" if you've enjoyed it.
Cichlid Charmer is dedicated to sharing the joy of keeping African cichlids and American cichlids and sharing information about them. Much of my content is not cichlid fish specific, however. It also pertains to all tropical fish aquariums. I will share what I have learned about cichlids and other fish, and everyone is welcomed to comment with their own experiences and information about fish and aquarium practices in general.

Extremely beautiful aquariums
You are so nice to say so, Frank! Thank you!
THANK YOU! Over time I was becoming increasingly more anxious about cleaning the filter in my 100 gallon tank. I would have small drips and leaks but they would eventually stop. Not this time! I never knew I needed to maintain and change the O Rings. Now I have some leaks and am on the emergency hunt for these guys. I will change them with confidence after this video. Your tank looks fantastic!
I’m glad to have helped! Hope you get those leaks stopped soon! 😬
Great colors in there!
Thank you!
Amazing what a good glass clean does…..
I finally realized what it was in my tank that was making the water cloudy. I forgot to rinse my substrate ahahahhahaha thank you very much
Great info as always, Great job.
I really appreciate the feedback!
Which tip from this video helped you the most? Do you have any tips not listed here? Let everyone know! See the second video here: ua-cam.com/video/Y5QUIsRl0AU/v-deo.html
Love your colorful cichlids!😍😍
Can you do a video as how to get the fish coloration pop?
On the list! Thank you!
I’m all bifocals ! Thanks a lot for your input,every bit of advice counts .
You’re welcome, and thank you too 🥰
Nice tank 👍👌
Thank you 🙏
Pleco are my friend they clean glass better than anything, but they are invasive so you need to take care of them.. Don't throw them in the wild.
You can use newspapers or any paper like that to clean the inside too.
Plecos are a net loss. They pollute FAR more than they clean.
No animal can eat more than it wastes. Same reason perpetuation is impossible.
what light are you using. and are you adding any else than seachem prime during water change?
I have two Fluval Sea Marine 3.0 strip lights on Alcatraz. I only dose with Seachem Safe on this tank during a water change.
You use only one fluval plant 3.0 light for a 8ft aquarium?
Not just one, and it actually isn't the planted version. Here's a link to my full setups in detail: ua-cam.com/video/jtvJyQXKTNU/v-deo.html. Thank you for watching and commenting!
Are these glass or acrylic tanks? What's the best visual and quality tank to purchase?
These are acrylic which is as clear as it gets. If you get a high end glass aquarium with low iron, they are very clear as well. Acrylic will scratch very easily and glass will not. It can shatter though, whereas acrylic doesn’t.
@@CichlidCharmer thank you Sir
@@Qsly1 you’re welcome 😉
I have a few question about floting poop 😢
I have 130gallon tank with X8 filtration 3500L/hours
It is over flow tank, i have wave maker 10000liters/hours
Stock with 30 adults 4-5inches,
Fish poop always flooting when turn on the light😢
I keep one wavemaker at the top same side as the filter intake. Another wavemaker down low on the other side which creates a current that blows all the detritus towards the intake. Try that if you aren't already. And look for dead spots where the detritus is gathering and move things around until the dead spots are gone.
What are your bottom dwellers
They are Flotsam and Jetsam. Here's a link to the UA-cam Short I did on them: ua-cam.com/users/shortsF_a-vnwc1wE
You say if the fish were floating in air, if they were floating, they would be dead
What is the name of that big all blue fish gotta have that 🐟 not the dolphin
Probably my electric blue haps - I have two.
