    Very beautiful. I love how you vary the type of rock and aquascape in your tanks. I just restarted in the hobby and already have 9 tanks right now. Nothing as big and grand as your collection, but I'm loving the breeding side of the hobby. Just got my first batch of blue dolphins from a trio I got 14 months ago. I can tell you love the breeding side as well. Thanks for sharing your beautiful tanks.

    Excellent setup. Your passion for the hobby really shines through. Even better that you don't just have a collection of the "popular" fish that you mostly see on youtube. So kudos there too. I've only had central & south american cichlids but this is another prompt for me to look at Africans. Species only mbuna I think would be a nice start

    Man, where were you hiding all these years? Should have started posting earlier I'd have loved seeing how all those tanks were built. Especially, the plywood 3' cube tank, I've always wanted a tank like that but didn't have the courage to try because it may be hard to do maintenance on. Hope your channel grows and please keep us updated.

    • @Riffwaters
      @Riffwaters  Рік тому +1

      Hi! I keep bristlenose plecos in most of them, which helps. I also wipe the glass regularly. But I think the main help is that I don't keep plants, so it's easy to keep light time low enough to limit algea.

      Thanks! There actually is algea on some of them, on rocks and decor, but I wipe the front glass down during water changes. Also, my lights arent on very long each day, since there's no plants.
