The tank looks great! Love to see the growth and change throughout the vids. Also 2 vids in 1 week! Hype! but dont over work yourself, worst thing to do is get burnt out of the things you love. 👍
@@S1xroom Thank you! 😁 and yeah I decided to give 2 uploads per week another go, hoping it’ll help the channel grow a bit faster 😅 and thank you I’ll keep that in mind!
Scoobz great video mate for anyone thinking of purchasing a nice size 👍 It's a shame how you had to cut the top for the canister tubes, if you could have had them separate you could have done a nice circle on top & put a rubber sucker around the edge of them. My hubby did in mine to have Pothos plants in & if not needed black grommets pushed in 😂 I brought a U2 to add further filtration with mine. Out of all the tanks I've seen the Fluval Roma 240 & the Fluval shaker 252 are the best in my opinion.
@@peridot-20 thank you! Yeah Fluval should change the design a bit so you can upgrade to a canister filter easier. And yeah the 240 is definitely my favourite! May try out the shaker one day if I ever have the space 😁
@@ScoobzNPetz Your welcome & I watched a chap on RUclips cutting his out & did a nice job of it, the only thing I hated with mine having hard water was the lime scale used to show bad outside the joining on top, that kept me on alone. I know you would love the shaker 😉 If I was your mom I'd get worried incase furniture went missing 😂😂
Perfect timing Scoobz,i reckon i will get a canister and i think i have an aquasky but an older one as my one is silver in colour and Peridot helped me find the app and sort it out,works pucka 👍
@@Magicwerx Oh nice! Yeah definitely upgrade to a canister if you’re thinking of heavily scaping it but you could also see how it goes with the u4. And yeah the aquasky is great, just being able to put it on a schedule is already a game changer 😂
@@Magicwerx yeah just play around with it, I have mine on from 12-8 but it definitely gives me algae problems 😅 still need to figure out the perfect balance myself
@@ScoobzNPetz Cheers dude,every day is a school day (even though i hardly went is maybe why lol) loving it though,getting well into it,Bonnie still hasn't laid eggs,i've about 30 red swordtail fry in mi 7ltr....can't wait for mi 200 setup,got fluval stratum at the bottom,2-3mm black gravel,some nice wood pieces that i'm just waiting on the glue,cheers for that vid,scaping a tank 👍 and getting rocks and plants as soon is mi sister is ready to goto Tropco 👍
@@steviesfishandplants Yeah the stand is quite sturdy. Just make sure that you put it on level ground. Uneven ground can put uneven pressure in the aquarium which may cause leaks etc in the future
@@NathanMUFCfan Thank you! I used plant substrate for the bottom and black gravel. I also use a plant nutrient bottle, they’re all from pets at home so if you’re based in the uk you should be able to find them there. I made a video on how I set up the Roma 240, I use the same things there. Feel free to check that video out, it’s linked at the end of this video
@@user-gi7de2vx9s Yes, that was old footage. They can also survive in freshwater, mine was alright for months but then he got into a fight with my moray eel
@@user-gi7de2vx9s according to sources online they say 55gal. I should mention though that there’s still a lot of debate online on whether they can thrive in freshwater or not. Based on my personal experience, mine was fine for a few months before he passed away. There are others who say they kept theirs in freshwater for years but I’ve also seen some where the dragon goby passed away after a few weeks.
@@ScoobzNPetz ahhh sweet man, thanks for letting me know. Currently looking for a main fish for my bedroom aquarium was looking at snakeheads andrao smallest one 12 cm or so it said on the info I was looking at or apisto cockatoo one with the orange and black fins look sick.
@@realorka happy birthday my friend! Hope you have a good day 😁 do you have anything fun planned? And yeah I decided to try and upload twice per week 😁 it’s a lot of work but hopefully it’ll be worth it !

@@chisaquaticvibe6524 Thank you! 😁
Wow looks great 👍
@@EmmaBakesCakes Thank you! 😁
Was thinking about getting this for a single axolotl but if the filters struggles I'll probably be better saving up a little more for the 240

Wow this guy knows his stuff
I might get one of these. Are the stands quite sturdy. I’ve had wobbly flat packs in the past.
@@steviesfishandplants Yeah the stand is quite sturdy. Just make sure that you put it on level ground. Uneven ground can put uneven pressure in the aquarium which may cause leaks etc in the future
Hey man. Your plants look so good in your 200. What substrate are you using and what fertilisers do you use?

@@ScoobzNPetz Thanks mate. I am from the UK. I'll check out Pets at Home. I'll watch your other video as well!
@@NathanMUFCfan Let me know if you have any more questions and thank you bro!
Was that a dragon goby? Ain't they brackish water?
@@user-gi7de2vx9s Yes, that was old footage. They can also survive in freshwater, mine was alright for months but then he got into a fight with my moray eel
@@ScoobzNPetz what size tank is adequate for a dragon goby? Didn't know they can live in fresh water.
