Simon may just be my new fish hero. lol. Isn't he the friend that gave you your arowana tank years ago?? He seems like a great friend as well as a great fish keeper. His Westie is darling; I have a Westie as well. The tri color oranda is my favorite along with the white one (lemon head?) What a treat. Thank you both so much for sharing this with us.
That is overkill filtration. I have seen fancy goldfish with simple sponge filters and they did great. Best to keep water 12 inches deep or else you will increase buoyancy issues. Goldfish farms keep their water only 12 inches deep for health reasons.
I find a very fine sand substrate can help to keep fancy goldfish healthy and SBD at bay, also lots of shelled peas to keep them regular. Pretty sure it’s constipation most times.
I agree with peas for sbd, but for sand is no. With goldfish you always want to go bare bottom if you want them to be healthy and disease free. Sand traps poop and create bacteria and infections.
Wow, you really weren't exaggerating about his sump system! I work in the pets area of my local grocery store, and spend most of my time taking care of our freshwater fish and maintaining their display tanks and we just had a brand new sump system installed a few months ago after years of me begging for our old one to either be replaced or heavily improved, and Simon's makes ours look like an amateur level embarrassment! (It's not bad, to be clear. Simon's is just *that* impressive)
Thank you for the kind comment! Simon is one of the most meticulous person I know and is always taking things to another level with his creativity and organisation 🤓
Hi, this Tank and the Sump Filter is mega cool and mega Profi Style. Zu Deutsch dieses Aquarium und das ganze Technik Becken ist das beste was ich bis jetzt gesehen habe. Der coole Black Style regt zum nachahmen an. Weiter so klasse!
Brand new tank and hasn't had a water change...of course it is clean. Those are some expensive goldfish. I have some ranchus and they spawned. Two of the babies survived to adulthood and now I have 2 orandas. Ranchus gave me orandas 😂
@@RyoWatanabee Ooh interesting plant. I'll have to look that one up. Yes, based alone on the video, you could tell he is a very organized individual. Good on him and we'll done. :D
Really enjoy your vidoes Ryo. You have the best between Japan and Singapore. I'm surprised you dont have an Arowana because you seem to gravitate towards them.
I love the white goldfish with a kinda looks like a pink head what kind of fancy goldfish is it? The tank looks great job I’m in the process of putting up my 60 gallon tank up for my 3 fish 2 are black moors and a brown with gold colored body very big around 6 in big. I would love to add a fish like the white one you have. I live in California.
I guess you have less problems with algae as the lighting can be weaker and in a spectrum that won't be suitable for plants. On the other hand you have more dirt produced by the fish and no stones or plants that "hide" it.
Very clean empty bottom setup, I think I will try something similar in the future. Now I use seiryu stone, gravel substrate with fake plants in it and some real floating plants on the surface. It's a lil bit hard to keep the gravel always clean, even with gravel vac. That's why I might change it to no substrate setup with floaters and maybe some seiryu.
not a ideal tank for goldfish: *For goldfish tank height--max 18 inches to avoid SBD *Don't cover up your goldfish tank as goldfish take 50% Oxygen from air, rest from water *Goldfish need daily new water atleast 15-20% so that big sump is waste of money. for 4 feet system a overhead sump enough or a canister.

Yes! You’re exactly correct! Amazing that you remember that. His Westie terrier is really cute 🥰 Thank you 🙏
@@RyoWatanabee I'm your biggest fan, buddy. ;)

Simple and clean! Love it!
I loved this set up too!
Top quality gold fishes that people can only imagine to own.
Goldfish are wonderful.

Could you tell me what size gallons each tank are... thanks!
Parabéns!!! Aquário lindo 🤩
Outstanding 👌 beautiful ❤️
Thanks!
Gorgeous goldfish! They still look like the may grow more. Thank you
Yes, some of them can get much bigger!
i think he should grow moss and have some shrimp in the last section of the sump ☺
Nice idea, but maintaining that would be tricky 😊
No kidding about his sump system. Very neat. 😁
What were the plants he had floating in the aquarium?
Yup, Simon is the most meticulous person I know.
The plant is some sort of Dracaena. Not sure the exact types
@@RyoWatanabee Ooh interesting plant. I'll have to look that one up.
Yes, based alone on the video, you could tell he is a very organized individual. Good on him and we'll done. :D
@@Cow_Juice I believe one of them is dracaena reflexa song of India. They can get quite large
@@RyoWatanabee Thank you for letting me know, Ryo.
Cheers and enjoy the rest of your evening. 😃

The dog tried so hard to be on camera 🤩🤩🤩
Yeah, I didn’t notice him when I was recording. Only noticed when editing the video. Should have included him 🥹
damn ryo, this vid brings me back when you`re still making videos in sg ❤ still remember your arowana and angel fish tanks 🙃
Beautiful 👍
Thanks!
Could we please get a closer look at the plant brackets that fit on the aquarium brace.
Those are special diy made by Simon 😅
They are rimless aquarium cover holders with a hole drilled though it for the plants to fit
All beautiful ❤
Thank you! 😊
hey nice tanks, can u make a video on ur friends sump system really loved it.
Maybe next time if I get the chance to visit I’ll try :)
@@RyoWatanabee 👍
Nice..👍👍
Lovely. What is the dimension of the tank?
you got a link for the airstone?
I wanna know too!

I think we have the same favorite fish
Same favourite
Favorite one is the white one that wears glasses and talks.
I like that one too!
How much is the fish cost for each?
just wondering if goldfish tank can stay clean longer than aquascape planted tank? my aquascape would need glass cleaning at least every 2 week
I’m not too sure but am interested to find out as well. I know that Simon does 2x 80% waterchange a week. Glass cleaning maybe once a week.
I guess you have less problems with algae as the lighting can be weaker and in a spectrum that won't be suitable for plants.
On the other hand you have more dirt produced by the fish and no stones or plants that "hide" it.
80% water change and twice a week, with all this filter? That’s even more than needed😂
Yeah. Once a week is fine 😂
One has swim bladder disease.. almost all of them are on top..
Very clean empty bottom setup, I think I will try something similar in the future. Now I use seiryu stone, gravel substrate with fake plants in it and some real floating plants on the surface. It's a lil bit hard to keep the gravel always clean, even with gravel vac. That's why I might change it to no substrate setup with floaters and maybe some seiryu.
Why there is no solid fish waste in bottom glass???
The price of the tank..
Is you friend not afraid of water overflowing the plate with the filter mats if he doesn’t change it in time ?
No, I think he’s really disciplined and changes the filter mats every morning and puts them in the laundry
Where he buy the tank?
Rainbow Green Singapore
I’m stuck between keeping fancy goldfish or flowerhorn 😫😫😫
that one oranda is upside down 😅
Yup, that’s swim bladder disease
@@RyoWatanabeeis it inevitable?
@@justin94431 some may get it while others won’t.
@@justin94431it should go away if they don’t feed it for a few days

Hi
Check out my aquarium
Why do water changes often? Get some purigen in your filter! Come on, man!
What so " amazing" about it? Its amazingly boring. Just a bare tank, no biotope no nothing. Blehhh
thats kinda sad that a lot fo them have such a hard time swimming bc they are so deformed :(
