In this video, I start stocking my 150 gallon Custom Aquariums aquascape. I used plants from Ultum Nature Systems and I'm excited to show you how the whole thing grew in. It's pretty amazing!!
This tank was provided by Custom Aquariums, Find more about them here:

Tank looks amazing! The large "nano fish" tank is my favorite. Get tons of movement and activity with lots of fish.

3:18 I almost exploded when I saw the tiny corydoras. My love for corydoras burns like a thousand suns.
I think you should add an angel or a bigger size fish in as well. In my experience it helps keep rummynose schooling tighter in group when there’s a bigger fish around. A slow moving fish is good contrast with them
this guy gets it
Angelfish aren’t a good mix with nano fish because angelfish might eat them
@@tameaopulencia1338 it’s ok it’ll control the population
@@tameaopulencia1338 the angelfish wouldn’t eat the tetras there still to big angles have small mouths
I added 2 angelfish after my tank had been running 8 months and had no problems
Favorite part was watching the nerite snail time lapse
Me too!

Nature's blood pressure reducer . One of the reasons I got into the hobby when I was a kid is because it really helped my mom's blood pressure . One of the first things she would do when she got home from work was to sit in front of my aquariums and just relax for a good hour or so . She loved this hobby and eventually got into it herself doing selective breeding of guppies . We used to talk about the hobby for hours .She passed away a few years ago after a long battle against dementia . If it wasn't for her love and support , encouragement I don't know if I would have been in this hobby let alone worked in a tropical fish hatchery doing what I loved . RIP mom 😿💔
For mail ordered fish, especially ones that spent an extra day in the bag, I would just use the "plop and drop" method rather than slowly acclimating them. This is what I have done for all my orders in the past 5 years or so with good results.
What’s the “plop and drop” method?
I agree. I cringed when I saw the slow acclimation, especially shipped fish that spent an extra day in shipping. It’s ok to do that on local bought fish, but should always plop and drop shipped fish. The ammonia becomes too toxic when air is exchanged in the bag the second it’s opened from the pH rising immediately. I’ve done plop and drop on shipped fish as well for years without any issue. One of the reasons you never see super sensitive fish like discus acclimated. Always plopped and dropped. This scape is beautiful and would be nice to spend a few hours sitting in front of.
Awesome setup. Thank you for sharing. I enjoyed watching.
Rummynose are one of my favorite schooling fish
Wow so beautiful aquascape and fish, good work.. 😃👍👍
Nice set up.
A nice pair of black veil Angels and one male Apistogramma Cacatuoides (triple red) would look great in there, and they’re perfect cichlid mates for the tetras.
Excellent job big guy....
Tiny fish and big tank.... A really beautiful combination
You have to be pretty happy with that Alex, lovely fish.
Very beautiful tank, would love to see how you clean it.
Very nice looking set well done
Your tank looks great 👍 👏 🙌 you are doing a great supper nice Wonderful job keep up the great work 👏.
So beautiful!
Great looking tank. Love how natural it all looks
Beautiful tank and fantastic choice of fish, thanks for sharing.
I feel like this is your dream aquarium.
Finally! Been waiting patiently for some fish! Great tank, lovely sight! Amazing colors all around! Have a great day my friend!
Stunning tank
Beautiful tank! Now this has become my dream tank!
That’s a beautiful scape. Very low maintenance too.
Congrats on the fishes bro!!
your videos are always so awesome it's like I'm actually there 👍
Amazing!! I wish my tank looked half this good
wow Alex. I love your choices. Congrats and enjoy
looks wonderful! but why not just temp acclimate and then net out the fish? aren't you worried about adding the bad water into the clean tank?
That's what I would have done normally. Because the fish were already extremely stressed from 60 hours in the bag, I prioritized releasing them without more stress rather than best water practices. It worked out well, but it was a risky choice.
You gotta do what you gotta do.
For the amount of water the tank has compared to what their being released from is a pretty substantial difference, I could see if it was a 10 gallon tank doing the plop and drop method but in tank tested's case I think it was better to do it that way as the risk of death is alot lower, if diseases arise, he'd do as he mentioned in the video for medicating.
On this situation, other reputable aquarist just toss them in the aquarium without acclimation and without the travel water, that water is already bad enough
I added 50 rummynose to my 100gal. Over the course of a month the numbers started to reduce but I couldn't find the bodies. Finally found them when I opened the canister for washing. They either got in through the inlet strainer or the surface skimmer.
It's very beautiful 😃
Looks very good. Some dwarf cichlids would be the icing on the cake. Microgeophagus Ramirezi or Dicrossus Filamentosus.
Good luck...best wishes from Germany, Michael
This is my dream tanks omg😭❤
Great work Alex. 👍🏼 keep it up
dream tank
couldn't see a single cory in there at the end, which was surprising given how many there were
Wow nice 👍👍👍
Im not that worried about the diseases by not quarantine the fish but i am worried of the nasty water that may contain a lot of nitrate in that bag.Releasing that water in the tank is bad.Plop and drop method is far better.Just take a bucket,put a net over it and pour it in.Your tank look quite good though,i wish you the best
Wow that tank is stunning, if i was at your place I'd pull up a chair and just stare at it
Can you make a maintenance video soon
Looks beautiful! Almost missed that you used ottos!
Amazing! ...I wish!
Absolutely beautiful 😍
I love your choice of fish,
they're all so peaceful.
All my tanks are fresh water and all of them except for 1 (and the betta tanks) have nerite or ramshorn snails in them.
I guess theres a off chance that you will get baby snails. To be honest, I think you should've went with Ramshorn snails.
U can try adding some botanicles like almound leaved to give the tank a tone of water native to the tetras
BTW Rachel O'Leary did a video on what to do with bagged fish that arrive late. Next time (hopefully it never happens again), but if it does give her a call, or watch her video.
Looks good ive got peppered corys in my tank aswell there so cool
Amazing...
everything is going to be covered in eggs lol
I hate snail because of that
I only have 2 and my tank is covered
For algae n moss control, better use corydora or shrimp or other herbivore creatures
Using snail is a bad thing.
Lovely video 👍
Great video and amazing tank
I love your content
Good Stuff bro...Hoorah!
Where did the nitrifying bacteria come from? You mentioned the sump, but not the source of the beneficial bacteria.
Beautiful ❤
Nice
Wao nice fishes
That's almost the exact same setup that I want to do with my 50 gal, except that I want to add a pseudomugil species and do cherry shrimp and hill stream, instead of the amano and autos. And possibly some batis and apistogramma as well
Super like👌👌👌 Amazing, Beautiful and Peaceful video..
Thanks for sharing..
Do keep posting
Warm regards
The UnknownManCub👍 😎
Oh it's so beautiful. You should be so happy :D
Big ass tank with small ass fish. Thats life
Love it!
How is your water so clear?
I think that tank is begging for some golden barbs
How many rummynose tetra put inside?
Hey Alex, beautiful tank and very nice livestock. can you tell us if you are using CO2 and the photoperiod?
cheers and keep it up
Ahhh I'm so late! Looks great with the rummynoses swimming around, and the corys on the bottom when you do see them!
Will you add any centerpiece fish? Or are you happy with the stocking as is?
Awesome tank. What light do you have on top in this video?
Where did u get those fish?
Ever heard of plop and drop?
Where did you purchase your livestock from?
won't the algae eaters struggle to find enough food with so many in the tank?
Six months in and there has never been a lack of food! all the algea eaters have been growing and are healthy. A tank this size have a lot of surfaces for algae to grow!
The fish tank with your voice was relaxing
are you going to remove those rocks on the branches?
Yep! They are just weighing everything down for now.
Is it 150 fish or 125 fish?
Corvis added 200 rummy's to his 240, 3 years ago. A year later almost all were gone. There is a reason fish lay thousands of eggs..
Their lifespan is longer than a year in the aquarium, but it the wild 9 out of 10 die during the dry season each year
@@TankTested That's kind of the irony in the hobby..you can cram a big Pacu into a 100 gallon tank for 20 years and it never gets any disease even in lousy water,a poor filter. Put a neon into a God gorgeous natural aquarium where the 1" fish has 8-20' of big tank..and its dead 5 weeks later.
I've kept the biggest species..and other than an Arowana jumping out,all my large fish were always healthy. Red Devils,Central Americans ,Oscars, dozens more-Koi outdoors..healthy..all of them.
It's why I hit my head on a wall when 2 year old Bleeding Hearts die off in a week from something I don't even see!..let alone can treat. The males had such long dorsal fins. I miss them already.
Apisto’s, angels, geophagus, or discus... 🤔. Cardinals?
My Amano learned how to crawl out of the net when I move it, it is a nightmare to move it now
Becarefull with the snail bro , they can fill your aquarium and are very easy to lay eggs
👍
I wouldnt tell people that you can just cycle the tank and then release a bunch of fish. Yes if it's cycled you will have less issues with ammonia but you can risk an ammonia spike crashing your system as your bacteria are used to lower levels and will take time to grow their colonies to deal with this higher load
with all respect- but if you add about 50 nerites to a freshly set up tank with 12 sensitive ottos and 40 hungry amanos there isn’t even a close chance for all species to survive this as they naturally rely on the same food sources like algae and bacterias wich would take a long time to develop in a sufficient amount. and the named species can be very reluctantly accepting ordinary fish food, so best luck and be so kind to offer them some algae wafers...
i would wish a channel like this would take more their educational effect into perspective as it usually has a lot to offer.
I mean, I filmed this video in May. Everything is fat and happy.
Actually! Peppered corydoras reach 3 inches; they have in my tank, unless this is a different salt and pepper Cory
I realized after this video was published that there would be confusion here. There are two species of corydora with very similar common names. Peppered corydoras grow rather large. Salt and pepper corydoras say quite small!
@@TankTested very true, and easy to confuse them! Pet stores can easily recommend what they think is the right fish when it’s really something different
this snail, lays white eggs on the glass tank and it's sticky had to use razor blade to remove it
Don’t add snails😅
💕💕💕💕👍👍👍
Is this glass not too thin pal?
The glass is 3/4 inch!
How many gallon is you tank?
Singular or plural , it's Corydoras. From the Greek
for helmeted .Don't remember exactly; books are in storage . See Wm. T Innes, Exotic Aquarium Fishes. Sorry Alex, my OCD
is showing.
I think that some elements of this video are poorly worded and as a result over-complicated some simple things. Overall the tank in its final form looked great though. - Alien
Put lot of snails is a big mistake.
He explained why it's ok to have nerite snails as they need brackish water to breed properly, they also generally self populate themselves.
The 1 month is still no reason to add 150 fish in a 0 fish sistem
He hasn't lost a single fish sooooo. An beautifully colored which means health as shit soooo...... Whats the problem?
@@saitosplay-mix3960 colar doesn't equal happy
no common pleco?
Sort the female snails out of the tank and take those boulders off the driftwood.
I would guess that they are helping hold that section of wood down. How can you tell the sexes of the snails and any way he mentioned that there eggs do not hatch is his water conditions.
You make it really overly complicated
the decolorisation of the tetras at the start is so sad
Magnificent.
Nice
Amazing...
You nailed it. Great selection for stock, too. Awesome job, I could watch that tank for hours.
Oh Alex.... What an incredible journey it has been to be part of and watch you bring this aquascape and aquarium to life! A story that has been beautifully told! What a dream come true! I enjoyed your thoughtfulness in every step you put into building your dream tank! Congratulations my friend and I look forward to the updates! I hope you have a very blessed and beautiful day! 🙏❤️🐟🌿🐌🌿🦐💚
Tank looks amazing! The time lapse sight of the snails crawling out at 0:09 was also really nice👍
Everything is in the number 150 👍
