I think the plant in the shrimp meadow tank, the one next to the pothos, is called a nerve plant or a toothache plant. Famously fast to wilt, but quick to recover. If they really can tolerate life with roots in water I'll have to give it a try!
Wonderful content, thank you for the information, I grow many plants as well as house fish and i wondered what i could grow symbiotically with the tanks.
I only have 3 types of house plants in my tanks at the moment…PeaceLilly, Pothos and creeping Jenny. The creeping Jenny has taken over my outdoor tub which looks great. I absolutely adore those inch plant you have. I’m going to have to buy one. The breeding rack is looking great. Btw Did you try putting a microfibre cloth underneath the air-pump yet to help reduce the vibration noise?
I use the nicrew lights for most. On the tank in the thumb nail I am using a ring selfie light that broke off its tripod and I just secured it to wood. The silver heat lamp looking light is just a standard house light. And the light on the small shrimp jar is a top fin led light
Bonjour! For all the beautiful plants you showed us, do you just put them in the aquarium? No pot, soil, moss or anything? So I could clamp some on the side of my thank and they will grow simply with the water from the aquarium? Thank you for your videos!
Ive got a bunch of rex begonia that do well in just water. Im looking to add them to a live tank with one betta in it. Just wanted to make sure its safe for my fish.
I had to Google it, those are beautiful! I am not sure to be honest. Most tropical plants with high humidity requirements often do well growing out of a tank but I've never heard of someone trying it with this plant. If you do it, let us know how it turns out!
@@thedirtytank try go to your backyard and do any cutting. Ud be shocked that even the plants they say won't grow in aquaponics can grow in aquaponics. Nothing fazes me anymore.
If anyone’s curious, the scientific names of these plants are
_Tradescantia zebrina_ 'Inch-Plant' or 'Wandering Jew' (
Great info! Thanks for taking the time to write this, very helpful!
Thank you bro!!! Great video + expert!!
They aren't just "in the fish tank". They are also under strong lighting.
I love the purple tradescantia

Yes, I did add the cloth and I tightened the screws on the pump itself and now it's a LOT quieter! Thanks for the suggestion!
@@thedirtytank Oh good stuff. 👍🏼🙂
wow amazing.
What’s important to me is your lighting. What kind of grow lights and or bulbs are you using.

@@thedirtytank thank you. 💖💕

I have a few in a mound of dirt but most can just have their roots in the water and do just fine!

I love your tanks.

How many gallons is the tank in the thumbnail?
It's a 20 gallon long
Pothos can also grow under water
The "mini Monstera" isn't a Monstera ay all. It's an epipremnum..
No it isn't. It's a rhaphidophora tetrasperma.
