It's always great to give it a serious hardscape redo- that dirty black gravel on the right side was killing me.....not any more. Now this tank is starting to get enticing to me, when I look at it I find where it needs more... This is how I roll, i stop looking at it and come back and check it out an make adjustments. "Can't see the forest through the trees" I now leave the water level low so I can get back into it easier and play. the little tweeks. Breaking up the anubias is pretty much always a good idea as well.

I love it for the challenge and therapy! the sound the look and just getting lost in it man! Also my uncle is a really big fish keeper guy!

The biology of course! I have a deep love for creating a 'small' functioning ecosystems

I'm just getting into the hobby, getting my first fish (a betta) and it's kinda just helps with my depression and anxiety, it helps me calm down

Crypts take so so slow to grow any idea how to speed up

it is so theraputic! pretty much a form of art with live animals.

it cools my anger and I love watching them play

thats a really good looking tank. lots of work and it pays off!

pls move that add around 4min in, takes all screen...not much room for wht u show us then.

youve really helped me out with my angelfish aquascape. i love this hobby bc its very relaxing and i love seeing progress with my plants after all my hard work. c:

the way the fish seemly fly, I even have dreams where I'm doing a water change and my fish just fly out of the tank and fly around the room. :)

I'm a mother of 5 girls and I need some Zen time and the fish give me that caring for my fish helps me to relax listen to the trickles of the water if the tank help me to relax I have four tanks running three major and one beta tank

Every time I see Dustin's tank I feel so inferior. Its just so damn beautiful

I love that you can make the aquarium a piece of art with a story. In regards to types of fish, my love is for Cichlid and their ability to move rocks around and create a cave network.

love the 220 man its come a long way. ill show you my 55 gallon praecox tank when my plants fill in

The fact that i can just let myself go to my friends local aquaponics or under water gardening and the ability to just let my ideas flow with my favorite fish ANGELFISH which i just finished scaping their fry tank and it has helped me through a stage of depression because my parents mad me sell my 700 GALLON madea sized tank which help my spotted amazonian freshwater rays that died do to a stupid mistake my dad made by putting tap water in the tank when i had to do something very important in the middle of a water change and he did not put in h20 dechlorinator so ur vids have helped me through a very big brick wall in my life

I just love having fish, and i'll pretty much get what i feel they will enjoy of. Also i love anything to do with water and the life under it. I love naturalistic look so my aquarium fish are just a school of scissortails and algae eaters. Aquarium is like a way to escape reality. It makes me relaxed to work on it.

I like being able to recreate aquatic landscapes!!! #Fishkeeping4Life

I've always owned aquariums and I guess for me I get the greatest joy from knowing that o created this ecosystem where the animals
I love live. I'm directly responsible for their lives. If I mess up I learn and I pay for it. Interacting with the tanks via water changing, feeding, etc are serious zen moments for me. Breeding and raising fish are also extremely rewarding.

You get out what you put in.... If you have the patience take time with maintenance you get rewarded by an awesome display and you know everything is in harmony and healthy I've had a reef tank before but my passion is freshwater tropicals. It's all about the green Dustin

Hi Dustin, love your tanks and what you're doing. What lighting do you usually use for your planted tanks?
