Ive always heard that there is no such thing as too much filtration, its all about water flow. I run a diy 5 gallon bucket canister filter filled with lava rock, coarse and fine filter mat and carbon when needed on my 20 gallon low tech planted tank. My pump runs around 140-150 gph and my tank is always looking beautiful. I get the added water volume from the size of the filter and the amount of media in the filter easily controls my water parameters. Took a while to cycle the filter but now is kicking ass.

Will shrimp take care of an algae problem?

Hey Dustin! I have a moderately planted goldfish tank in a 60 gal tall with some easy plants crypts, swords, and jungle val (that I got from you thanks!). I have an aqua clear 70 and a cheap sunset canister filter on it. I was thinking about adding a sponge filter to it to get some more surface agitation. I noticed my fish are more active when I have an airstone in there. Do you think this will be ok with my plants? Thanks!

On my heavily planted 180 gallon I have one FX6, two 405's, one aquaclear 100, underwater filter, and a sump

do you run co2 in your planted aquariums? im trying to aquascape my 36g and dont know if i should run it or not

plants like fish also need a filter. i learn that plants will die just like fish without filter. just take longer to die.

hey Dustin, im looking into. setting up a 20 or 29 as well. my plan is to set up a tank with dwarf puffers. would a whisper 20 be sufficient for a 29? I think it will be fine but I'm looking for a second opinion here

Dustin what about planted tanks with NO fish or shrimp. just plants????? 20 or 30 gallon???

like you're show, I meet your friend Kevin Simpson in Charlotte yesterday,his fish tank is cool,,told me about your shop, rock on :-)

do you have to add Sand to your Planet Aquarium or can you just use rocks and then put the plants in the rocks

awesome tanks!! been watching your channel for a while. do you run pressurised co2 in ur tanks?

After success with some nano tanks, I'm about to embark on a 55-gallon planted tank. Your videos are great and fun and super helpful. Thanks!

would you recommend the tetra tec ex800 plus for my heavily planted aquarium. it is a juwel lido 120. i measured the tank and calculated the volume to be 145 liters /31 UK gallons/38 US gallons. because of the amount of substrate and driftwood in it i would say it has 16 litres less water now. the tank will be stocked with pair of german rams, two small schools of rummynose, cardinal and panda cories and 4 ottos. i tried to research about it but there isnt alot about it unfortunetly. it has 4 trays so i was thinking of using the pondguru style of filling the filter. but i just want to know if it would be strong enough.
