NANO TANK MAINTENANCE AND RO FILTER GUIDE
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- Today, we'll show you how to do a water change on your nano tank - in under 10 minutes! It's been six weeks since Balazs has set up his kitchen nano aquarium for his wife, Dory. This is the perfect time to do the first large maintenance! He will also talk about the Reverse Osmosis unit (water purification and soft water production) and will show you two maintenance routines: a quick one and a longer/larger one. Having a good water change system has enabled him to do the water changes still every 2-3 days, and he plans to keep this routine for a more extended period - to keep the little planted nano tank algae free and healthy. Hopefully.

The professionalism you bring to this hobby is astounding. The hobby can't afford to lose you, my friend.
Thanks so much man, really glad you think that! Will try my best not to burn out. Cheers.
That is a really beautiful tank, I am happy that your wife appreciates it and understands the complications that can arise with such a set up. You have a very understanding wife there do not lose her.
I'll try not to, haha. Thanks Richard.
Wife calls: Balazs are you going to sit and watch the aquascape grow all night?😂
Happy wife happy life 👍
Sure! Haha. True.
LOL
If i have an aquarium like this..i will do sit and watch from my chair for a wholeday..very inspiring!
Oh, that's what I do, watching it for hours. You nailed it.
Perfect. He’s got his green tea so he’s happy. 😂
I'm easy. Haha.
Great video Balazas, Thank you for sharing!
An idea for blocking out the light is to get some sheet metal, maybe pre-painted steel or plain galvanised or aluminised steel or even stainless steel but that will cost $$$ as it's heaps more expensive than plain sheet metal.. The pre painted sheet metal in Australia is known as Colorbond and comes in lots of colours. If you go to a roofing supplier or sheet metal workshop they often have scraps of strip they throw out. You want something 0.55mm thick.
To fold it to your tank dimensions they may charge a few dollars, but shouldn't be more than that or they are ripping you off.
To fold 90 degree angles, you can do it yourself with a piece of timber and something like a concrete step. Search you tube and you should find plenty of DIY tips on folding sheet metal.
Good luck!
Folded metal plate! Great idea, thanks for that Julian, you're great.
You gotta love that woman. She's such a kind one. Most importance, she supports you. I wish my ex's were kindda calm like your wife. :(( and none of them liked anything I do.
🥰
Beautiful tank! The hose with the taps is a really brilliant solution!!!
Yeah, it's the quickest way to change water, I can really do it under 10 minutes. Every time.
@@GreenAquaShop Hi Balaz, when you open the tap at suction side of the hose, what is the pull force that will suck out the water to the other side of the hose? I understand the tap at the toilet end is open from the start, right? I think I'm missing something. Does closing and opening the tap from suction side of the hose can trigger the gravitation pull? Apologies for lack in understanding.
this is one of the nicest tanks I have seen!
That is really beautiful tank. Beautiful scaping. I wish I would have one soon.
Glad you like this, thanks for the comment, hope you'll do your tank soon.
I am so glad that where I live we can use straight up tap water for planted aquariums.
Yes, you are very very lucky! I wish we had conditions like that in Hungary.
@@GreenAquaShop It a blessing, KH about 4-5 GH around 8 No nasty chemicals. Never had any problem with the water in 36 years. Unless someone wants a specialty tank it is quite useable for community and planted tanks.
Sounds like perfect...
Balazs, you are really an inspiration for me, always smiling , always good mood :), always green tea :), watching your canal guide me to come back to this fantastic hobby (after several years of marine tanks), quality of your videos is something I would never be able to do. big like from me again ! I can not wait to see next video :).
Thanks for the support Filip, your kind words keep me going, really. Glad you appreciate the effort we put into this, hope we're going to be able to provide you with that for a long time. Cheers.
It is very important to maintain ....and you yave done it very beautifully.....
I didnt know that Seachem Excel gets rid of algae on rocks. That is very valuable information. Thank you Balazs!!
You're welcome, just be careful around the plants with it, at that concentration is very strong...
@@GreenAquaShop You can also put 1 or 2 ml in a cup and water it down a little bit before you use it. Will still clear algae but is less aggressive for plants/fish (and if needed, you can treat a larger area then, too)
The tank is amazing. You are very smart you made it your wife s tank, that way you are more appreciated doing all the work a very nice aquarium requires. The way you immediately agree with the Buce being ugly( smart thinking, I'm learning a lot again) and take it out instantly,well done. Lol. Much appreciated to see you take it the profi way at home, makes the hobby more real and accessible. Thanks Balazs
Haha, Ed, spot on man, spot on.
Love the tank! The detailing for such a small tank is amazing! Great job and thanks for the tutorial!
You're welcome, glad you found it useful!
Thank you very much for showing in detail how a bucketless water change can be done. This has improved my life with my tank.
Yeah, that is very important. Good I could help.
Beautiful tank there "D
Thanks! Check out the setup video too.
Am i the only one who noticed that the light turned on before he clapped?🤣, great video I wish I had the skill/resources to make tanks like that
LOL, Dory switched that on manually. :) Well spoted.
Amazing tank! I’m just now getting back into the hobby after ~10 yr absence and things have definitely changed. Your tanks and advice are giving me inspiration and helping all the information to start flowing back lol
We're glad you like it 😄Cheers
Great to see the water change approach in a real home. Brilliant. Entertaining video again. Was smiling all the way through.
Cool! Yeah, I also like watching how home tanks work...
You’re wife is the sweetest 🥰 you look great together 😊
hi there using plastic clips to clip over the sides of the tank, clips like those used to keep cables against the wall. attach these to block-out curtaining and make it to drape around the outside of your tank. EASY.
Thanks for the tip!
A lined black cloth will cover nicely. And the light will keep it drapped properly. I have one, works great. Mine happens to be black canvas lined with black out cloth.
I just don't know how and where to hang it, and how to take it off easily... Plus would block the air inside if I hang it above on the cabinet...
We have a saying here in the U.S.... "Always do what your wife says".... Great video. Thank you for sharing! -Little Bobby
Yeah, I know that saying. Also: happy wife happy life. Cheers!
You have a lovely and sensible wife. Nothing should worry you.
I agree :)
Whats the difference between treating/remineralize RO osmosis water before you put it in the tank or after... if there is any? Btw looks amazing do you have update on this fully grown?
After. The proper way to do it is before though. We just do it like this for years, no harm to livestock. But it's not what we advise.
Thank you so much for inviting us all over to your home again to see how you care for your own nano setup!
I love the pre-filled drainage hose with the double taps. So much simpler to use than a siphon hose with hand pump.
I also have the same 45-P and Twinstar light setup and am looking forward to any and all future adventures you have with your home setup! Assuming we’re all invited over again later. :)
If you don’t mind me asking, do you have the timers set up the same way for your home tank as those at work?
Cardboard is a very available and low-cost solution to lighting at home for sure. I’m also considering making an enclosure to block ambient light. My nano sits on a stand on the eastern wall so I would construct a case that I can hang a blackout fabric onto. It would almost look similar to a puppet show booth you can see at carnivals or street show. Still looking through other options as well.
Well, we are home at night, so co2 on at noon, lights on at 3pm, everything off at 11pm.
Yeah, I think I'll go with a metal plate, an L-shape to cover the tank.
Timers to match time at home is very logical. Wish my daily schedule was consistent enough to do that too.
Metal? Welding/fabricating a removable shade sounds like a lot of fun! Looking forward to that video!
Haha, don't know if I'm gonna do a video about that though.
There are many of us who only have the space and/or budget for nano tanks like the 60-P or smaller. All the issues you have and solve with your home setup are probably shared with all of us new aquascapers.
The aquarium journey is especially tough for the beginners and your videos, resources and links have been amazingly helpful to getting me started at looking into solutions for our nano cube garden.
If algae problems can arise from ambient light due to how we live in our homes and your unique shade creation fixes that problem... even if you don’t do a whole video I’m sure I and many others would love to see the finished shade photo and how it works out for you.
Did I mention the layout was beautiful? Already inspired to re-scape or start another (maybe slightly larger) cube garden! I’ll have to check and see if I can legally collect petrified wood on a hike this spring! (Washington state)
Thanks again for the great videos and insight.
Always looking forward to Green Aqua content. Wish your shirts were available overseas, especially the mother/fckn/nature one ;)
Great tip to use the electric toothbrush! I'm sad your wife doesn't like buce... they are my favorite.
Shrimps and fish together seems work. Lucky you.
Yepp, it is a very good ecosystem. Thanks to the good tech.
I would recommend using a curtain rod suspended from the ceiling with cables and a curtain going around the tank , and you are a crafty guy I know you can make this look real professional
Cheers, thanks for that.
I appreciate the detailed walk through of your setup and maintenance routine. For beginners this is ideal. Your wife seems like a very nice person, you must make sure you clean the sink and keep her favorite fish in the tank for her : ) as they say happy wife happy life.. I accidental left a water bottle full of water from my reef tank that I was taking to the local store to get tested on the dining room table. She drank some. Lets just say i am lucky to be sitting here with two hands typing this message HAHAHA
Haha, what a mistake man. :) I'm trying to behave with her...
The electric toothbrush idea is brilliant! I'm going to start using this in my tank!
Gogogo, just don't use it on you afterwards, haha.
Green Aqua Is your toothbrush fully submersible? It looked like it was but I wasn’t sure. I have an old electric toothbrush but I never tried to submerse it!
Yeah, I think all major brands make submersible toothbrushes.
Green Aqua That’s great! That’s a really clever way to clean the rocks.
Yeah, it's a lot easier than with regular toothbrushes...
Blackout curtains / my patented Houdini hood 😃 light weight wire frame top sits on top of your twinstar curtains drape over tank, and when done collapses into itself easy!
Curtains affixed to frame via iron on hem tape or stitching could delegate that task😋
Good idea :)
Actually doing maintenance is fun. Cleaning the driftwood, rocks, glass, etc are really satisfying. I'm not joking. When you finished, everything looks sparkly clean. It is worthwhile even though that means you're staying up until 2 to 3 am.
I know that feeling man. Cheers.
I've been following you from India for a while now... I must say you have a beautiful tank... and even more beautiful wife!! Your information is always so helpful I dont have a tank but I know so much now I'm prepared for it and the full credit goes to you...
Thanks so much for the support and for the nice comment! You are great.
The percent of good water vs bad water depends on the water that comes from your tap. My father has extremely hard water with a ph in the upper 8’s, so he only gets 25% water to 75% waste.
it does not depend on the water hardness, but it depends on the type of the RO filter and a lot depends on the pressure of the water - I forgot to mention this.
my tank got kind of curtain for quite some time now,preety happy for the result
Okey! Thanks for the comment!
Nice to see you can have crystal reds in a high tech tank. Many say you can’t. Nice work!
The Shrimp King has told us in his video clearly: shrimp are not as sensitive to CO2 as fish. He knows!
Thanks Balazs. No more waiting for clean water from the RO filter!
You're welcome, glad it helped.
Hello.
Looks really nice.
I think i must rescape my 60p.
Ty for showing us our kitchen tank again
You're welcome, glad you got inspired, good luck with the rescape!
Small n nice, thank you for sharing the behind the scenes (your cleaning process n those piping lol), love the conversation with your wife. She so thoughtful.
Thanks for the kind comment A li, thanks for watching!
Many good information for planted tank maintenance in one video. But I did not see the details of powder that you pour into the r\o water, after water change.
Many thanx for the video and guidance for us.
We pour in Green Aqua GH plus, or GH/KH plus.
Extremely useful information learnt here and your RO System is an excellent idea.
Cheers, thanks!
There are so many valuable tips here! Thank you for going through all the detail. I love the tank, and the choice of plants and animals in it. Beautiful!
Oh...and I've watched it 2.5 times now! Haha.
Cool, thanks for watching, glad you liked this vid! :)
Electric toothbrush... brilliant. I have one of those and never thought about using it for my tank!
As long as you don't need to use it yourself later, it's fine. But cleaning the rocks is much easier with it, yeah.
Oh my God ... What a beautiful aquarium! I recently discovered aquascape through your channel. I really want to enter this wonderful world of aquascaping, and this aquarium of yours is really the model that I always dreamed of having (maybe, a little bigger, lol). As I live in Brazil, maybe you could refer me to partners or acquaintances of aquascaping here in my country so that we can exchange information about how I could safely enter this wonderful hobby. By the way: won another subscriber. Congratulations on the beautiful work and the channel. Strong hug.
Oh, you guys have a really cool gang of aquascapers there, world famous really. You should really meet up and further the hobby together, I have the deepest respect and awe to Brazilian aquascping. You should be proud. Good luck with your scapes.
I love this so much! But wonder can't you just turn on the CO2 earlier so the morning lights and ambient lights don't disturb anything?
I have used sewing machine covers for small tanks before, you could try to find one that fits your tank. Very nice home aquarium
Thanks for that idea, you're great.
Szia Balázs! Nagyon szép Aquarium, profi takarítás. Gratulálok hozzá, lenyűgöző.
Köszi Tamás, örülök, hogy tetszett. Üdv!
Feel so relax whenever I watch ur vids ... thanks you sir
Mission accomplished, thanks for the kind comment.
I found a a simple solution to prevent light on the tank during « unwanted light » hours. I built a black coroplast (corrugated plastic) box that i fit around the tank and that I take out and simply fold and hide when i’m not using it. Super simple to build, super efficient because no light goes through, takes no space when not in use and low cost! I used painter’s masking tape to hold the panels together because it is flexible and also no chance of leaving glue marks on the glass if there is a problem. It cost me around 35$ to build for a 60-P and it is going to be good forever! 🤷🏼♂️👌🏼😁
You guys doing amazing jobs, keep the passion of aquascaping
Thanks so much for the support 💚
happy to see yr tricks and advice. hope i make my lady as happy as yr lady w my amateur 1st ever tank! U r such an inspiration.
thank u.
It's not the quality that matters, it's the attention. And you'll get better and better with time.
Nice aqua, pretty nice wife - you are lucky and happy man dude. Perfect video, thank you!
Cheers, thanks for the nice comment!
beautiful tank ,beautiful wife and beautiful work !
Thanks Thomas! Glad you like so many things about this video!
To block the sun from the tank, perhaps you can use sunshade/curtain? for car. There are many types but I saw one that has a suction cup and you can just roll the shade like a curtain. They can be easily remove and store easily. Not sure if you know what I mean.. Quite useful for blocking light while taking picture too 😁 The light/co2 timer is such a crucial information, I'm glad i found it out from your early tutorial, again very useful information for beginner like me. Keep on posting! Cheers!
Thanks for the idea, I know what you mean. Good idea! Thanks for the comment and glad you found this video useful.
@@GreenAquaShop So Im sure this problem has already been solved but if not, a BBQ cover.... They make a lot of different tall rectangular designs that are weather proof.
Great looking nano planted aquarium. Your channel is very high quality, kudos for building such a solid brand.
Thanks Dmitry, trying our best. :)
Thanks for the video, there is on the market some sensors that detect light and trigger and switch off any automation ( here Co2 solenoid plugged to a smart plug) and the very good thing is there is light sensors that can be set to trigger at a certain level of light 😉, i will try this soon.
Not a bad idea indeed, will consider it. Cheers.
What a fantastic looking tank and system. It is an added bonus to have such a sweet wife who obviously enjoys it very much. I subbed and look forward to your content.
Magical maintenance
Cheers Steve! Hopefully, you'll be able to see it when you come to Budapest, will invite you for breakfast or something.
awesome video as always balazs .. i would recommend you to use 2 small projection screens hanging them on the roof above your aquarium and scroll them down when you dont want any light from outside your aquarium
That is very convenient, I'll look into that, thanks for the tip.
correction **
I meant the shelf which is on top of the aquarium not the roof *
I understood what you meant, thanks!
I have a feeling that your tank would be ok with ambient light.also it good to see people from an other country other than American, canada, uk or Japan. I would like you to feature more local aquascapers from your home country and thanks for speaking English
You're too nice! Well, we try to feature more Hungarians, but most of them do not speak English. We try to avoid subs if possible. But yeah, we have other European and Asian aquascapers on the channel. This is an international hobby, we have many friends all over the world really - with whom we talk on a regular basis.
Thank You by the video!
Very helpfull for me and my aquarium!
Cheers!
Mr you show the coolest .everything's .that goes in to making a good Tank .Video
Thanks Richard, I really like my home tank still, it's a treat, really.
You could find a dark drape to put over it, like a thin black towel or something.
Thanks for the idea!
an idea of genius the old electric brush!
Haha, not my idea though, I read it somewhere...
You should do a video on trimming, more specifically rotalas. Maybe show how you trim Felipe's tank. When should you chop them to the ground and replant?
We've got quite a few videos on Rotala trimming, even the triangular tank maintenance video is like that. And Jurijs's trimming video, etc.
Galaxy Rasbora's the best fishs ^^ thanks for RO system info ^^
You're welcome, glad you like the tank and the video.
Thanks for the video
Small tank and big maintenance.
Yeah! Sometimes it needs to be done.
Good work Balasz, i think you felt real epic after the recording cause of the music you put under it.
Oh yeah i like Mighty Rush that much, its amazing music. Just as amazing as your toothbrush. Genius! Never saw it before but what you said its perfect for cleaning rocks!
Haha, I feel epic all the time when I'm about to edit something.
Man your videos are Pure Gold. Great info as always. I’m going back to watch every video
Cheers from California!
Hey Matt, thanks so much for watching. Glad to hear the videos helps in some way 👍
Love the nano tank its prefect for most people. 💖💖
Yeah, but it's not very stable, I would go above like 60 cm for most tanks.
Thanks for such amazing videos. Love u team green aqua.😊😊👍👍💖
Thanks for the kind feedback and for the support.
@@GreenAquaShop you're most welcome 😊😊
Thanks for the RO breakdown. Finally got mine setup!
Cheers Steve, good news!
Szia ez csodálatos szép nagyon az ember mindig tanul 🙂köszönöm
Nagyon szívesen Isti. Örülünk, hogy hasznosnak találtad.
Quality video and information as always 👏👏👏. Green Aqua you rock.
Mersi Ionu! Cheers man!
Maybe you should try custom made curtain to cover the tank, like in the hospital. You know what i mean. Great video btw, and i never feel this pro in aquascaping before 😂
Thanks Ron 😄 ✌️Cheers
Great video Balazs!!!! Thank you to share with us!!!
You're welcome Pedro, thanks for the comment.
I love the tanks great job keep it up
I was wondering what was that u add to the tank
After changing the water on minute( 15:07)
Awesome Videos 👌😁
Cheers, thanks so much!
Very detailed and very useful. I will be back next week
Cheers, thanks for dropping by again! See you.
Very Good!!! Nice Video.
Thanks so much!
Lovely aquascape, nano aquariums are my favorite. Try using black corrugated plastic sheets to block the sun.
Not a bad idea, thanks for that! Glad you like this, I plan to post an update on this sometimes.
I really love your videos Balaz. Your genuine joy and happiness is so infectious and it is just so apparent you truly love what you do. Wish I could do a nano tank for myself.. :(
Thanks for the support, good luck with the nano tank, I'm sure you'll do it.
Beautiful tank!!! I was going to ask about an update on this tank so, thanks for doing it!!
You're welcome, I hope to be able to post further updates on it too.
All the time I was just worried abt the twinstar.. Like in one of the video you dropped it in water.. Moment you started cleaning the tank near to edges my heartbeat increased, thinking now Balazs gonna drop the light in water "accidently".. But hushhh it never happened.. Great relief 😅😅😅
Haha, I had that thought while editing the video too, especially when I lift it, so I feel you.
Another awesome video. Thanx
You're welcome, thanks for the nice feedback!
love this video more with the whole aqua green family !!!!
Cheers!
If you have access to a Kinetico K5 RO where you are, I’d definitely recommend it. I think it would be much simpler to use and the Membrane lasts 10 years and is under warranty during that period of time. :)
Thanks for the idea, this is perfect for our purposes, no problems with changing the membrane after 2 years.
Good Morning!!!
How cool to show your home aquarium .... good and less cost ... it would be black acrylic plates or transparent acrylic with black adhesive vinyl ... the ones we use here in Brazil ... you can do it in a U shape closing the front and the sides ... so the clarity will not pass ... and it is easier to remove ...
Big hug !!!!
Good morning, not sure if this was a question or not...
@@GreenAquaShop It was a suggestion ... at the beginning of the video ... To also clarify the light in the aquarium ...
Oh, like that! I understand now! Thanks for the idea, it's really cool, might do it actually. You're great.
love the tank and everything you guys are doing at greenaqua! totally inspiration and mark I'm trying to achieve as I'm still new to the hobby. an idea on keeping the light out - maybe a black ridged mesh cut the same dimensions as the top and attach/hang black fabric from the top edges of the rectangle to form a cube - similar idea to how they cover bird cages at night. Anyways - keep up the amazing work and I look forward to whats next. best.
Thanks for the kind comment Jason, you're great.
Hi Balázs! It’s a beautiful tank! Love it! ❤ Anyway, may I know how did u made the suction hose with the Eheim double tap on 9:07 ? Is the siphon process will automatically begin once you open the valve? Thank you.
great job buddy. the things we do to keep loved ones happy
Haha, indeed, thanks Peter.
Awesome videos and content as always . Been a huge fan of your channel. May I know how do you keep the carpeting plant being so lush and compact ? Would appreciate if you could share some tips on that. Thanks !
The ro system twisted my mind
Yeah James, it's important to have good water and a tech that enables you to change the water quickly.
So amazing and beautiful update....You r lovely couple..god bless you both. Finally you give us update of your personal tank..I waiting for this from long time..plants are well settled...carpet plants are fabulous.. details of the tank looks fantastic..great job sir ..water changing is best part of the tank and also necessary ... maintenance of the tank is very important...you give us so many ideas and tips for maintenance and water changing.. Green aqua is best for medicine , plants, equipment etc...RO system is beautiful and amazing. First time I see like this RO system. It is amazing invention. Your tank is so beautiful and amazing. Thanks for sharing the details...u r best...I love your way to work...you give us motivation. Thanks again for vedio .. in the end of the vedio, u add shrimps ...they r my all time favorite... thanks a lot.
Cheers, thanks for the kind comment, glad you like our video and the tank itself too. You are great.
@@GreenAquaShop u r my ideal... I always waiting for your sweet and polite words...
Cheers!
Beautiful tank, great video. I'm kind on the same situation with my tank location, is on the dinner room so there is light all day. I use a black plastic individual tablecloth on the front on the aquarium when the lights are off. Let us know how you will resolve it.
I think I'll just manufacture an L-shape thin metal plate and place it in front- slightly higher than the tank.
You have always new things to show...love this video...😍😍😍
Thanks for watching!
Beautiful aquarium....so peaceful....love it😍. What type of stone is in the tank? Really nice stone👍
Thanks a lot. :)
It's Petrified wood stone.
