Water Change Using Gravity (change settings to 1080p)
Просмотров 1,8 тыс.4 года назад
Please change settings to top quality (e.g. 1080p). Here I do a water change using gravity to drain and fill the aquariums. I also utilize a high powered pump to siphon the debris on the bottom of the tank. Hope you enjoy, more to come soon. -Greg

Check me out on instagram @ GVB Discus for regular updates! Lot’s going on and lot’s of fry (be sure to check out the Batik Eruption x Piwowarski Red Turq pair with their fry!!).... so much that I had to put two 70gal tanks on the floor for some emergency space for growing out a large batch of fry. I’m going to try to make some water changing videos soon, I promise. Any questions please ask!

Been slacking with the videos.. sorry. Will be making some soon to accommodate some video requests. I am in the process of turning my barebottom 120gal into a decorated tank. In recent events, my batik eruption discus took home grand champion, best of show, and 1st place in discus at the American Cichlid Association contest at the Aquatic Experience in NJ this past weekend.

    Not a bad setup. It needs to be revised to be perfect but pretty cool. I would extend those pipes away from your foundation More put a French drain in along that path. Also I would stick your hand in there. Stir up all the feces and all the fecal matter and everything with a brush or a wand and stir it up into the water, then drain the tank. That way, you get both, you don't need to siphon.Just stir it up.

I’m just returning to the hobby of discus, I won’t be having as many tanks as you but if my small fish room can be anything like yours then I shall be very happy 👍 but your quite right in starting by purchasing quality, I have just liked and subscribed and any help or advice will be much appreciated regards Paul from the Uk 🇬🇧

    Hi, thanks for your video! Really answered my question! I have kept discus from Discus Hans since I was told he is the only one that sells stendker discus that can “survive” hard water (tap water). Then i found out discus hans/stendker stopped breeding fish. Just bought a 125 gallon, planning on buying more discus, didn’t know where to buy any discus tgat can live in my tap water, until I watched your video!

    During your first attempt at raising discus did you do any medication during the first 30 days fry hatching? If so please make a video? I’ve seen your Potassium Permanganate videos but I need more details if possible . Your video and Jack wat leys discus videos inspire me to become a small scale breeder

    • @GVBDiscus

    • @GVBDiscus
      @GVBDiscus 3 года назад

      the brown means amount of PP used was exhausted, it does not mean that it has “finished working” and there’s no need to add more, please just stop, you clearly have no idea what youre talking about

  • @angelfish1265
    @angelfish1265 3 года назад

    I have killed fish using hydrogen peroxide. Not safe to use with the fish in the tank.

    • @bigpickles
      @bigpickles 2 года назад

      Perfectly safe if you don't overdose like you did.

    • @rajadey4919
      @rajadey4919 5 месяцев назад

      .32 gram as Mr D explained in a 5 gallon bucket. It's less complicated than trying for a bath for 4 hrs ( 2 mg/ Litre or .076 gram per 20 gallon for adult discus/ 0.95 mg for fry.

  • @angelfish1265
    @angelfish1265 3 года назад

    I'm glad this is old. A 4 hour bath in it should kill them. Check out jack Wattley Discus folks. The PP color change tells you when the PP is done.

    • @GVBDiscus
      @GVBDiscus 3 года назад

      you used the word “should”, meaning you either dont know or havent tried, and i have done it many times and they dont die. so maybe dont comment on things you dont understand, or just listen to your buddy Gabe who’s setup is much different than a single tank PP treatment and see how that works out for ya, best of luck… to your fish

    @MELODYMUNRO 3 года назад

    I have never used fish medication. I use salt with my mbuna but only if some have physical injuries from fighting. I worm my discus but only every 3 months. I think Australia's tough quarantine minimises a lot of diseases and pathogens.

    @raining7049 3 года назад

    Great honest opinion which I fully agree with. I don’t need to test my water the fish are my test kit. I keep mine at 30 degrees is all I know. Quick question do you find the sponge filters are sufficient for filtration I notice in some able you only use sponge filters.

    When I lived in Edinburgh in Scotland, the water was PH7.8 coming straight out of the tap. Then if you left it standing after a week it reduced to PH7.0. With large water changes it was not practical to try to lower PH anyway. It's more important to have clean water.
