Beautiful + mysterious + breathtaking = this 🐠🐠 tank.I love it. 🥰🥰🥰 These kind of DIY videos prove the only thing that holds us back is the limits to our imagination. For example: I can see this tank on a much larger scale as a main focal piece in a living room. Or even rather massive and placed in the seating area or central lobby of a business.

never watched ur videos before but wanting to make my own aquarium and came across ur video, click on it, in first 10 seconds there's no sound so I increased my volume, and the video started at 0:17 ,scared the shi*t out of me.
I was legit talking to you while you were doing the hardscape. "Oh, that's pretty... wait what are you doing? Go back go back... I hate it!" This whole setup is just stunning.
It is beautiful and serene to watch, but I kept coming up with questions, and thoughts throughout such as: Is the fog and the superglue safe for the fish? Does it require a heater and filter? I'd love to see an update after a year or so to see how it is doing...Cleaning must be difficult...not much room for the fish...It is a beautiful center piece for a good sized room...Now I'm wondering if I should pull out my long spindly driftwood from storage and put it in the back of my 40 gallon tank, and attach a bunch of Anubias to it for my goldfish/rainbow platy tank... Very inspiring. Thank you for this video. (and thank you all for your patience in having to read what my mind gears were coming up with :)
Thank you! Yes the fog and superglue that i used are both aquarium safe. There is a small preset heater and canister filter but i dont think i showed any clips of them. I will do an update in a few months! Cleaning is simple, I only clean the pond area and the bog area remains untouched. That driftwood anubias combo would look great!
@@lwinter56273 hey Lucinda, I want to start with this new hobby, but could you help me a little bit. 1) I would like to have a "flat" one. Like in the video. But is that more difficult than a high one? I saw many tanks like 60cm*30cm*30cm (I think then it would be a normal aquarium, not a nano tank) and that would be okay. But for a beginner in this hobby, is it a little bit to big to start with? Would it be better to start with a 40cm*25cm*25cm tank? 2) And should I take a filter, which is inside or outside of the aquarium? 3) and finally just a question I'm curious about ;D When you have some shrimps in your nano tank and then they get some baby shrimps. That's great! But then (maybe) you have to many of them. What do you do with them? You can't kill them! But if you don't have friends with an aquarium too, you can't give it to them etc. What do you do? oh and just saying, I'm going to start with a freshwater nano tank. Not a saltwater tank. :D I'm sorry about all these questions and thank you very much. You don't have to respond if you don't want to ;D
@@LokiOfMischief Hi,(sorry for my English, I'm German ) I would think that for this size a filter inside would be enough. If you have too many shrimps you could sell them, I don't have shrimp at home but I'm sure that if you want to get rid of a too fast growing population you could add natural enemies, but I don't think that they'll expand their population too much.
@@lwinter56273 ohh perfect, thank you very much. Yeah, i would buy a enemy or so. Oh and no problem with your english. My eglish isn't the best too... ;P
16:20 It looks nice, but I hope you like warped/damaged walls and wood from condensation, because that's what you'll end up with over time, as the fog cascades over the tank sides and onto the cabinet and down the back of it.
This is great in nearly every way, but the one thing I consider a major flaw in design is the placement of the pump. As soon as it clogs or quits working for whatever reason, you will quickly understand why.
Of course! you are eating with natural materials. You try a piece here and there. It's the normal creative process. You expect a blue print plan and follow to the letter? All decision on landscaping design and materials decided before the first rock is placed? There is no 'indecisiveness'. What the fuck is wrong with you?
@@MrBonners I don't think his comment was stupid. It was a fair observation. I totally agree with your views on the normal creative process, but I don't agree with you crucifying this dude.
ME TOO!!! Especially because I live in Florida and it’s muggy and humid 90% of the time and I’m worried about if it does grow mold will it travel because I keep a guinea pig in my room and I don’t want anything that could possibly harm him in the same area.
Regis, this is friggin awesome man!! I see people will bitch about anything in comments ;-/ you dont owe em a single word or thought. You rock brudda!!! Looks freakin beautimus!!
Nice! I especially like the fogger. But, I thought Maidenhair fern couldn't be planted in water? I looked at that for something similar. I ended up getting Trichomanes Javanicum Borneo Fern but that can't really be planted partially in water either.
Thanks! Yeah its not really thriving. I moved it up so its above the waterline and that definitely helped but I still might try a few other plants for the next update.
The ultrasonic fogger will not harm the fish? Also, you could use a simple string instead of the plastic strip (clamp), which is much more biodegradable and harms less the nature.
I’m not very knowledgeable in this type of stuff, but is the whole aquarium self sustainable? Is there any management besides trimming overgrowth? Do you have to feed the beta or do the plants there feed it? I’m so curious😁😁
I am using three basic beginners plant to turn my normal pond tub into planted tub for guppy and their fry. How long should i wait to add them back in the pond?
Check water parameters after the conversion, if everything is normal you can add them in immediately. The plants wont negatively affect the water parameters.
While the tank looks fabulous I surely wouldn't put a betta in that since it doesn't have a lid. It's not about if but when it jumps out. Other than that it is just beautiful.
Thanks! I'm going to move him to another build soon. But for now, the floating plants completely cover the water surface so hopefully that will keep him from jumping
bullshit not all bettas are jumpers and plenty of experienced betta keepers have open tanks without that issue which i never had..put them in a small bowl they will want to jump out but provide a nice naturally scaped tank like this is paradise for them and they wont make the leap of faith

Honestly I have so much respect for people that completely diy their tanks
Me too
if there was a service that came to set mine up for me, i would absolutely pay for that
Your tanks are always the most creative ones I can find
Thank you! That means a lot! A lot more builds to come, I promise! :)
Serpa Design is really cool too
Very nice to see how everything is made!
That is the most perfect betta I've ever seen
Can’t wait to do this for my betta when I’m not living in a super small dorm room :)
I started last year with a betta in a 5 gallon tank on my desk. I made studying way more relaxing. :) Now hes in a 10 gallon.
@@Kylie-Grace i started with mine in a 6l glass now he is in a beautiful 30l tank
I’m in a super small dorm too and managed to get 3 tanks in there !
I can't wait to get a laptop so I can study by my fish. I have a desk in my room (with fish) and PC in another room where I can't put fish. 🐟
I love how you make your aquariums and it really inspires me to try and do stuff like this. Keep doing the great work!
Thank you!
This is ASMR for your eyes
im on the same page
Definitely lol
Watching this before bed to relax :)

@@RegisAquatics I look forward to the videos. Very excited!
I like this one great idea with the fog... Fish is lovely
Thank you!
Some cool ideas, especially the drip system

Thanks for watching!
So cool, nice job. I love this size tank and shallow.
Thank you! Shallow tanks are my favorite!
Amazing. This is so cool. 👍🏻
Thanks! :)
Fantastic scape love the fog....🌱💪👍
Thanks!
Dude.this is a great diy aquarium
Stunning!! Well done 👌👌👏👏
No thanks for making this was amazing enjoyed every second of it❤️❤️❤️❤️ :)
Looks amazing! The only thing i would add is a few underwater plants....so the betta can enjoy them in his environment as well. 😃
Thanks! I added a few plants soon after publishing this video. I'll update in next video
Wow, this is really an awesome setup tutorial!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
My best friend, I liked the video very much, thanks you for sharing, stay safe, stay blessed
Lovely coloured fish.
Very nice, well done. Greetings from Cumbria in the U.K.
Thank you! Greetings!
so therapeutic to watch
Some enya music in the background and I’d be lulled to sleep. Such great vidoes
Amazing 🤩🤩👏🏻👏🏻superb ideas
Looks great! You chose a very beautiful betta too :)
Thank you!
What an inspiration! Thank you so much!
Thank you for watching!
Great work! 👍😎
Thank you so much for this video you have given me some great ideas for taking my paludarium to the next level
Thanks for watching!
Very beautiful, Love it 💝.

Stunning betta
Thank you!
WOW that Betta is stunning ❤️Oh and your tank is nice too😉👍🏼
Thank you 😁
loving this! but remember... bettas are jumpers....
I've heard that a lot, but I've never had one that jumped myself.
ive heard that a well-kept tank and plenty of floating fauna discourages jumping. but thats just speculation.
Every fish are jumpers. My bettas have jumped less compared to my other fishes.
@@johnsm3568 my betta jumped and died
Wow, it looks amazing
Thank you!
Stunning!
Thank you!
Talented great job 👍 Fam enjoy
Thank you!
This is insanely cool. Could you do a super small build? Like something for a work desk. To help you relax. Smaller than this.
Thank you! I am currently working on a small version of this style tank. It will be perfect size for a work desk. Stay tuned!
wow nice work man
Thank you!
Amazing great work
Thank you!
Stunning! I gotta find someone in Australia to build it for me LOL I’m
Hopeless!
Thanks! You can do it! I have faith in you! :)
Nice work
Thank you!
I’d love to completely customize my very own fish tank one day. Gotta get myself financially stable first to give them the best.

Thanks!
Nice setup & that betta, beautiful all around!
Thanks! :)
17:26 there was a four leaf clover right in the front
Looool
tf
i dont think they're clovers
Beautiful betta 🥰
Thanks!
16:20 It looks nice, but I hope you like warped/damaged walls and wood from condensation, because that's what you'll end up with over time, as the fog cascades over the tank sides and onto the cabinet and down the back of it.
Thanks! No issues so far, this tank evaporates less than a gallon/month so the affects are minimal
How does the Japanese Blood Grass fair long term? Have you had any issues with root rot or anything?
so how do you properly clean them rocks when they are glued together?
I only clean the pond area. The bog area behind the rocks remains untouched
Awesome!
Thanks!
Will the pump be affected due to it being completely covered by substrate? Im concerned abt it not able to pump water efficiently
I’ve uncovered that corner to allow for better water flow, no issues so far
Nice job
Thanks!
How do you clean the tank? I would love to create something similar with our betta tank
This is great in nearly every way, but the one thing I consider a major flaw in design is the placement of the pump. As soon as it clogs or quits working for whatever reason, you will quickly understand why.
Thanks! Yeah Im definitely rethinking the placement for my next build
Thats cool bro
thanks!
Oh god, watching him make that tank so nice gave me flashbacks of siliconing baffles in my sump.. what a disastrous pain in the ass hahaha
looks like you were a bit indecisive with those rocks and branches placement.
Haha yeah just a little bit :)

@@MrBonners I don't think his comment was stupid. It was a fair observation. I totally agree with your views on the normal creative process, but I don't agree with you crucifying this dude.
a bit
I always wanted to make a tank like this, but worried about the high humidity causing mold/fungus on the branches and glass
ME TOO!!! Especially because I live in Florida and it’s muggy and humid 90% of the time and I’m worried about if it does grow mold will it travel because I keep a guinea pig in my room and I don’t want anything that could possibly harm him in the same area.
True, good reason, theres a lot of those when i had that tree thingy
If you use isopods and springtails they will eat mold.fungus,and anything that breaks down,as they are detrivores.
Star Brown chances are there’s mold watching this with you right now. Apart of you. On you. In you. Mold. Is everywhere.
Nice choice of music
nice video
Thank you!
Is it self cleaning or do you clean it? And, if you do clean it, do you go about it by using a siphon like a regular setup?
Its self cleaning for the most part but I will do normal maintenance on it. I will siphon the sand mainly for aesthetics though.
Did you have any issues with the fogger electrocuting the fish?
no issues after 2 months
Does it need a filter? Heater? How often do you change the water? I was inspired to make one of these because of this video; thanks!
That is one lucky betta
how did you do that splitter for the water pump?
I just used a 4-way plastic air divider and 1/4" tubing to connect it to the pump
Stunning tank how did the Chinese water grass do in the moist environment? Thanks :)
Regis, this is friggin awesome man!! I see people will bitch about anything in comments ;-/ you dont owe em a single word or thought. You rock brudda!!! Looks freakin beautimus!!
Thanks for the support!
Nice tank. What kind of sand was that? Looks like it needed no rinsing before setup.
Thanks! The sand is Imagitarium White Aquarium Sand. No rinsing needed for it
Nice! I especially like the fogger. But, I thought Maidenhair fern couldn't be planted in water? I looked at that for something similar. I ended up getting Trichomanes Javanicum Borneo Fern but that can't really be planted partially in water either.
Thanks! Yeah its not really thriving. I moved it up so its above the waterline and that definitely helped but I still might try a few other plants for the next update.
how are you gonna access the pump for maintenance?
I will have to dig in the substrate a little but shouldnt be too much of an issue. Im going to rethink this part of the setup in a future build
this is good content
Thank you!
This looks like fun
How long did you let the silicone dry before you removed the tape?
4-6 hrs
Regis Aquatics Thanks...great video.
The ultrasonic fogger will not harm the fish?
Also, you could use a simple string instead of the plastic strip (clamp), which is much more biodegradable and harms less the nature.
The fogger is fish/shrimp safe, I've had no issues after 2 months. Yes, thats a good idea! Thanks for the feedback! :)
Where do you get the glass in those specific dimensions? Do you cut them by hand?
where can I find that dripping system? so cool
I’m not very knowledgeable in this type of stuff, but is the whole aquarium self sustainable? Is there any management besides trimming overgrowth? Do you have to feed the beta or do the plants there feed it? I’m so curious😁😁
Its mostly self sustaining. The plants clean the water but I still have to feed the betta and fill the aquarium after evaporation
I am using three basic beginners plant to turn my normal pond tub into planted tub for guppy and their fry. How long should i wait to add them back in the pond?
Check water parameters after the conversion, if everything is normal you can add them in immediately. The plants wont negatively affect the water parameters.
@@RegisAquatics if i changed the water will it be okay?
@@shrinkhlashrivastava7607 Should be okay but really wont know for sure without testing for ammonia and nitrates
