My Humble Low Tech Setup

OK, it just looked like all new media.

 

Yeah it does but I only "clean" it every 4 months.

 

They should call microsword not being able to stay in substrate grass....

 

What fish you got in with it?

 

I think it is my bottom feeders but it is unintentional, I got 6 Panda Corry, 12 Kuhli loaches and 3 Panther loaches. But I will keep on replanting till they stick lol.

 

There we go, thats your problem. They cant take root if they keep getting moved.

 

Seems if I stick them a bit deeper into the substrate then then don't get dislodged so easily, I think I put them in too shallowly into the substrate the first time around those that get dislodge and I replant seem to stay down.

 

Plant them deeper where they wont rot and let them creep on their own. Thats why im getting the root growth sorted before adding bottom fish. I know ive said this before but you are hectically overstocked.

 

I don't think I am overstocked since there is still plenty of swimming space for my fish and my aggression between the different fish and species are none existent. And my Bio load is not that much at the moment. Will take a video tonight.

 

You are overstocked, you cant debate the facts.

 

I can debate that because I know I am not. Healthy fish and tank to prove it. Overstocked tank would have sick un-healthy fish and high nitrites, and nitrate. Which I have not.

 

Wait till you have a filter crash, then we can talk again. You are wayyyy overstocked, but its your tank, so be what it may.

 

Filters wont crash because they aren't driving anywhere

That is a brilliant reply! ROFL!!!

 

Busy uploading the video as we speak hope it comes out all right.

 

Here is a video of my setup, does it more justice than the pictures I take, for best quality click second icon on the bottom right (The little gear) select the drop down box from quality and select 720p since. At around the 50 second mark check how my two German Rams tag team a snail and kill it:

Nice the rummynoses look happy.

 

@f-fish: Yeah, they also eat like pigs haha.

 

Nice! Awesome colours on those fish!

 

@HeinrichLourens: Thank's it is a lot of different food, I mix my Ocean Nutrient flakes with tetra bits and add some Seachem Nourish and once a week it is frozen food like Cyclops and Bloodworm.
