There is probably a very affordable tinted filter you could screw over the top of your lens to counter the warmer temperature of your led lights. I would first look for the k value of your leds. And if it were me I think the quickest answer could be found through a camera store's customer service. As B&H has always been helpful when I have a question on ordering items. Of course it would also be easy to adjust the color temperature with editing software. One problem, if being particular, is mixed lighting. For example outdoor lighting and interior lights in the shot. Anywho, great video as always and I didn't personally have an issue with lighting. Look forward to updates on how this tank progresses and to see what plants you get a hold of to add.
You could do potted Echinodorus like 'Reni' for a dash of red. You could also add some Crinums into the tank with the same method. Maybe even Lagenandra Meeboldii.
I would LOVE a video from you just talking about your "go to plants". I would love to hear where you get them, what you like and dislike, how you sanitize after purchase, what leaves you remove during water changes, etc.
This tank is beautiful inside and out because of the love you put into for fruition to its evolutions. Every time I watch a video of yours I feel reignited and recharged to want to do better with my humble 20 gallon tank ❤️
Your hillstream tank was always a pleasure to look at; lots of different fish in all the different locations. I really like the gobies. I definitely agree on the big tank small fish thought. Having a group or school of fish is such an awesome sight :-) and you can stock different layers and colours, it just gives so many options.
Hello Rachel. I really like the natural feel. I appreciate the fact that you give a lot of importance to the fish being comfy and in a environment that feels good to them. I see a lot of very nice aquascaper's work but sometimes i feel the health and wellbeing of the fish is last on their list. Great work and great ethics !!!
Hey Rachel, subscriber 684 here, I love your Hillstream tank. I've had one one hold for years waiting for a time when my nephew Tyler can come down and set it up with me. He collected rocks for in Pennsylvania for me a long time ago. He was a wonder kid, I remember him calling me up when he was 8 and saying "uncle Chris, I think I'd like to set up a brackish tank" Imagine that an 8 year old knowing what a brackish is.
I’m not a nano person, but I love this tank and the tank that it was inspired from. I love the movement of the water and the types of fish you have are so interesting! I’m a big kuhli loach fan. Can’t wait to see what else you add in the future.
I LOVE this tank. I have a 55 gallon tank I am still tweaking that was inspired by your hillstream tank. I need more micro environments - more rock piles, more plants, more natural caves. It a work in progress for sure. I love the nano fish. I really want to turn my 75 gallon into a hillstream tank. Right now it is home to my derpy goldfish and some guppies that road in on the duck weed. The goldfish may get an indoor pond. I have a large enough outdoor pond for them (100 gallons), but it's above ground (I rent) and I fear it will get to cold for them about 3 months out of the year if I left them outside. I'm still thinking on it. LOL.
artist here: if you're lighting is making things appear more yellow, specifically the plants, odds are the lights are too blue. hope that helps. also, LOVE this aquarium and how's it turned out after the move. thanks for updating us! xx
This tank is so inspiring. I think it would be so awesome to have a micro environment like this. I; like many of your other friends, am trying to mimic something similar but am using much easier fish. I'm still way to much of a navies to try some of these species! Just an awesome environment you have going in this tank. Thanks for sharing it with us.
I love all these awesome fish... Making a Barilius Hillstream was so amazing for me last year-- but all your vids on this (before and after the new scape) tank always spark my curiosity about all the awesome potential species for a tank like this~~!!
I just adore this tank! Are those bamboo shrimp? I have some very easy to grow red tiger lotus in my 40B Hillstream tank (I have sewellia fry!). The bulbs give a very different look to the tank. Looking forward to seeing more of this tank and it’s critters.
This is my favorite tank thus far for sure. I tried to mimic the previous version of this tank in my 55 Hillstream tank and plan to rescape as I love the look of the hard scape with the vast open area on the right.
Glad you kept the hillstream running, it's been one of my main inspirations for my own. I'd recommend trying hydrocotyle tripartita. It's done very well in my own tank.
Awesome hight you have it on now. The stiphodon's are defnitly my favourit in there. You can always add some Hygrophila pinnatifida? Awesome stem plant that can be used as a riozome plant. Nice collor variation depending on the light in aquarium
I went from never having an aquarium period to using only live plants. It's easy. The plants might die back a little at first but will bounce back. Just make sure you get plants appropriate for your setup and fish.
Try Anubias, Bucephalandra and / or Java ferns. All easy to grow on stones and the fish won't eat them. Make the jump, you won't go back to plastic plants.
You might try using one of the inexpensive pond pumps that push like 1,000 gph from Home Depot o cost even less at Harbor Freight..and just use that to make a very strong current for 4-6 hours a day on a timer. Maybe channel it between large smooth rocks..so fish can move away if they need too. An idea I've meant to do for years.
Vallisneria...just made for waving in the current of a stream tank. I also really like dwarf Anubias nana...its just has the look of a rock or root hugging plant in a stream bank. Did you know Rachel that the dwarf Neanthe bella Palms will grow fine with roots in water? Something if you want to carry the look out of the tank. Syngonium vine thrives also..you can get that in green,silver,or even pink leaves. My green has really did a number on algae..just sucking out all the nutrients ( well,most) the algae was using. I want to try the Palm idea myself. I've seen photos of them growing in water in habitat..shallows in shade. Never until seeing another utuber growing them indoors like that had the idea to try it.
I love this tank too. If you ever feel like demonstrating a way to make a mini-version of a hillstreatm type tank, I'd love to see that. Am always trying to so something like ths in my 29.I hope you find a good lowlight red, I'll be interested too:)
hey the tank looks awesome as always, you can try some bulb plants(green,red lotus,dwarf lilly) some red/bronze wendetii. or perhaps some a bunch of diffrent mosses, all the diffrent shades and textures, make for a very interesting scape :) keep scaping !
Did you know that Sewellias (and possibly other Balitordae) can be fed outside of the water? Makes feeding easier on pebbly ground. I have a few videos on my channel.
Get some Crypt. undutala 'Red'. Easy to grow like any Crypt but gets a nice dark red/bronze color. Alternanthera reineckii is another easy one, it's a stem plant that grows fast and get an intense red/pink color.
Bucephalandra 'rosmary' is a really nice plant. It does not necessarily has an interesting colour but it grows really long and thin leafs (just like rosmary does) and it gets nice and bushy. It may not be what you're looking for but maybe it's worth checking out? I personally think it's a really sexy plant. 😉
Looks great Rachel, I’ve enjoy watching all the loaches swim around, I’ve been wanting to build a bottom feeder tank with loaches and corys .that will be in future
Chi Chi’s Aquatic Dreams always has beautiful buce! He’s also a hell of a guy to work with! I won’t buy buce from anywhere else. Check him out on Facebook for now, but he will also have a website soon.
Try Lagenandra meeboldii. Buceplant has one that they are calling "red long" that is like a large fast growing Cryptocoryne. The tops of the leaves range from dark green to dark red but the undersides are sort of a coppery color. Very cool. Lagenandra meeboldii 'Red' is great too. In high light it will turn a pink color but in lower light it is a beautiful almost florescent green. They do well in low tech and high tech tanks.
BEAUTIFUL !.... As for the plants with color ? Good luck ! Most non-green plants need an over abundence in some food elements for them to give up their "money maker" chlorophyll cells. The low tech way,( no Co2 ) is to have a nutrient rich substraight with emphasis on iron,( red clay ). In this set up i would pot-up some red species of Echinodorus and place it in the center arrangement on the left side. This will raise up the plant closer to the light source; stimulating red cells to grow. The scaping materials and epiphytes can hide the pot and still look natural. Also, the sword plant will act as a light filter for the aubias and ferns to stop the algae growth. The Crypt family is also sensitive to color change with more nutrients at the roots. Some easy stem plants with great color are some varieties of Hygrophila polysperma and Rotala. For the lighting, the best budget led"s are the ones that are 5000K and above. ( It's a little cold looking, but the full spectrum gives the plants all they need.) More money... LED's with at least White, Blue, and Red, With red being the least. Hope this helps. . . Cheers !
A sustainable ecotope work of art. Remember the care with which you put this together. Have coveted R. zhui since I first saw them here (not bloody likely). Saw lack of Buce and thenyou mentioned 'Brownie'. What about Hygro pinnatifida. Like this iteration even more than original.
It's still my favorite aquarium on RUclips. Do you have any suggestions for more mid-water swimmers for an aquarium like this? I picked up a 135 gallon that I'm in the process of setting up, and I'm having trouble finding any definitive information on hillstream species that aren't loaches or danios. Thanks for all you do for the hobby!
Ok Rachel,This I predict will one day be the new "Amano' fish 'scaping in the hobby. Look at how she uses various gravels, rocks with color and texture. At first you think oh,no...but you look at her vids and after awhile you looking at quartz rocks with a new eye...
It wont link...Laura Eubanks "gardening for serenity" and in particular the "Shaded Ocean theme". I wonder why I cant link a youtube vid to another now..
This is a tank that is inspiring me to have a big hillstream tank. My house is being build so slow. I can't wait for it to be finished just because I want to start building my hillstream tank. 😁 My aquarium shop offers me that it would be long and shallow on to create the steam. Could you specify why did you choose relatively tall tank?
Rachel, your tank is looking fantastic.. I only wish I could get one of my tanks looking this good. I love your channel and the content you provide. Keep up the great work. I also tend to stick with tried n trusted plants that work for me, it's a shame to get a new plant and watch it die and not come back and think.. hmm that was a waste of money so hence why I stick with mine.
Wow has it been 4 years already! Always loved this tank! I love those little gobis! I dont see them on your website. Where can i get them? Congrats on 4 years!
Rachel I recently discovered Lagenandra meeboldii "pink" it grows in somewhat low light of various spectrums mine has remained purple and pink with no fertilizers or high lighting what so ever and honestly it's just stunningly beautiful and it's crazy that it's not as popular as it should be!!! Very cool plant , you might know about it ,if not you should look into it?... Lagenandra meeboldii
This tank is a gem to watch for sure. And I agree with the lights giving off a lot of yellow, but do you think the background wall is also making it appear more yellowish?
Cool I can't wait to see what's new I love everything you do except I wish you would give me the common name of the fish that would work out really well lol the plants to that would be nice LOL been a long time since I've been into Latin I'm 63 years old and I just don't do that anymore LOL please take care and God bless can't wait to see what's next always a pleasure watching you🐟🌱🐠🌿😁
Hi Rachel, Chany from Toronto Canada. I love your channel!!! I just started this hobby because my kids wanted to have a fish tanks at home and I think I love this more than they do. What is your advice about driftwood. Can I put a piece of wood from the woods inside my fish tanks? I have seen so many videos in youtube and everybody say something different. I went to my local petshop and the driftwoods are insanely expensive. What is your advice about this?

@@Beregar79 I would also say Lagadendron too. It sometimes looks quite brown but is good for breaking up blocks of green plants
I absolutly love this tank!!! My favorite of any tank ever!
This is my favorite tank, not just from your collection, Rachel, but from any RUclipsr :D
This is my favourite aquarium 😍 I could sit an watch all day. I have a 96L with Hillstreams, white clouds, rainbow gobys that i lose hours watching.
I would LOVE a video from you just talking about your "go to plants". I would love to hear where you get them, what you like and dislike, how you sanitize after purchase, what leaves you remove during water changes, etc.
This Hillstream aquarium is lovely. A nice compliment of species that live together in symbiotic harmony. ❤

Rachel, anything you seem to post is educational. I do not yet have aquarium, other than my low tech Opae Ula, but love learning from your channel.
I bet you sit for hours at times just watching the Dance of it All...
Thanks Rachel, really enjoy your tank videos.
I spend a lot of time watching this tank

above ground is fine if theres a good heater that you know you can constantly rely on.
Beautiful aquarium. It's tough to choose a favorite fish but I think those gobies are incredible.
Beautiful person = fantastic tanks = great YT channel! Keep it going girl.

This has always been my favorite tank of all time. It is looking so good. So hard to believe it's been FOUR years.
👍💕👍
This tank is such a great source of inspiration for me.
Yes, more hillstream updates! It's may fav tank from you and I recently set up a 60 gallon hillstream tank as well because of yours.

Can't wait to see what you put in here!!
Absolutely love this aquarium!

Beautiful layout, keep it up!!
I love how you let your tanks evolve!
What a wonderful aquarium! One of my favourites (along with your South American) 👍
Love it! Can't wait to build a planned tank. I never used real plants before, I'm nervous! 😵
it is awesome to do just use easy plants im only 14 and im able to keep alot of tanks
I went from never having an aquarium period to using only live plants. It's easy. The plants might die back a little at first but will bounce back. Just make sure you get plants appropriate for your setup and fish.
Abagail Rhea i had tanks before but now I do plants And I try to make vids of them but my camera is bad and the vids are boring

It looks better than ever! This is the tank that inspired (and continues to inspire) me to get into hillstream species and environments. Cheers! ☺️
Oh cool you added Bamboo Shrimp!
I love this tank too. If you ever feel like demonstrating a way to make a mini-version of a hillstreatm type tank, I'd love to see that. Am always trying to so something like ths in my 29.I hope you find a good lowlight red, I'll be interested too:)
I love how you set your tanks up. They look so natural.
Such a wonderful aquarium Rachel. Always love to see this one. The brown background is perfect too
hey the tank looks awesome as always, you can try some bulb plants(green,red lotus,dwarf lilly) some red/bronze wendetii. or perhaps some a bunch of diffrent mosses, all the diffrent shades and textures, make for a very interesting scape :) keep scaping !
Have you thought about Bucephalandra? It will grow on rocks or driftwood and it comes in many colors.
Looking so good! 😍😍
I love this tank too !
You really inspired me and in a next futur, I'll scape a big hillstream with nano-fishs.
Thank you !
Some great aquascaping there
Did you know that Sewellias (and possibly other Balitordae) can be fed outside of the water? Makes feeding easier on pebbly ground. I have a few videos on my channel.
Beautiful acqeurium, love from India 🇮🇳
very nice..i had some horse head loaches years ago..loved them..cant find them now around here
Very beautiful 😍
Been waiting for this update. Lovely view.
Beautiful Rachael...👍🤛🤛😉
Get some Crypt. undutala 'Red'. Easy to grow like any Crypt but gets a nice dark red/bronze color. Alternanthera reineckii is another easy one, it's a stem plant that grows fast and get an intense red/pink color.
I love this tank so much!
Love love love!
I would love to have a 15 po with a bunch of small fish. It would be full of so much activity
Bucephalandra 'rosmary' is a really nice plant. It does not necessarily has an interesting colour but it grows really long and thin leafs (just like rosmary does) and it gets nice and bushy. It may not be what you're looking for but maybe it's worth checking out? I personally think it's a really sexy plant. 😉
First! Lovely looking tank, keep up the good work Rachel 🔥
Looks great Rachel, I’ve enjoy watching all the loaches swim around, I’ve been wanting to build a bottom feeder tank with loaches and corys .that will be in future
This is super inspiring! Great tank and fish.
This gives me inspiration for my planted turtle tank
Your south American withe the barred pencil fish will always be top for me but this one is close 2nd. The fish in here are really great. 🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿
Chi Chi’s Aquatic Dreams always has beautiful buce! He’s also a hell of a guy to work with! I won’t buy buce from anywhere else. Check him out on Facebook for now, but he will also have a website soon.
I'm surprised you are able to get anything down down there with that so interesting hillstream distraction!🤩
i can look at this tank for hours too! great job! as for plants... anubias nana petite?
I just bought some TC crypt pink flamingo and orange tipped java fern.
Nice tank ! Perhaps you could add river snails.
Try Lagenandra meeboldii. Buceplant has one that they are calling "red long" that is like a large fast growing Cryptocoryne.

BEAUTIFUL !.... As for the plants with color ? Good luck ! Most non-green plants need an over abundence in some food elements for them to give up their "money maker" chlorophyll cells. The low tech way,( no Co2 ) is to have a nutrient rich substraight with emphasis on iron,( red clay ). In this set up i would pot-up some red species of Echinodorus and place it in the center arrangement on the left side. This will raise up the plant closer to the light source; stimulating red cells to grow. The scaping materials and epiphytes can hide the pot and still look natural. Also, the sword plant will act as a light filter for the aubias and ferns to stop the algae growth. The Crypt family is also sensitive to color change with more nutrients at the roots.

Try Tropica's Bucephalandra Kedagang, looks amazing
Yorkshire Pillock I have it too. It’s bigger and gorgeous in color :)
@@aquarialife8418 It really is a gorgeous plant you're right. I'm waiting for more to come in stock for a new aquascape :)
Great video Love the music

Hey Rachel
Is your daphnia aquarium still up and running?
This tank is absolutely stunning, everything is amazing but that wood!
Really like the new look of this 150!
But will the white clouds go back in?
It's looking amazing! Maybe some Bucephalandra?
Anubis Golden will add a different shade of green

It would be cool to see you actually shopping for fish ... how you pick your sources, how you go about searching for fish you want.
This tank is a gem to watch for sure. And I agree with the lights giving off a lot of yellow, but do you think the background wall is also making it appear more yellowish?
No. I think its the shitty lights
I would love to see the evolution of this aquarium. If like to know how best to quarantine my new fish and plants. I'm so impatient!
Cool I can't wait to see what's new I love everything you do except I wish you would give me the common name of the fish that would work out really well lol the plants to that would be nice LOL been a long time since I've been into Latin I'm 63 years old and I just don't do that anymore LOL please take care and God bless can't wait to see what's next always a pleasure watching you🐟🌱🐠🌿😁
Can you use Bacter AE to promote biofilm? I love this tank! I really enjoy the diversity of the fish in a Hillstream current!
My fav tank
Consider adding some Cryptocoryne Flamingo/Pink Panther and Cryptocoryne Striolata.
