    Thank you so much for this video. I am new to this hobby and picked up a small 14gallon cube tank.
    Hopefully i am doing this right, but i am starting the tank with plants before fish.
    My choices for plants (based on this list and my preferences) to start with are: Dwarf Hair Grass (instead of colored pebbed ontop of the substrate and Amazon Swords instead of a plastic decoration.
    Wish me luck!

Also, I have 3 yo yo fish who love to dig and they dig up some of the plants. Java Fern I don't know why when I had them they grew green algae on them and the the the roots had orange stuff on them. Tank gets only 5 hours of from the tank light cause the room has natural light esp in the afternoon. I have soil and sand substrate.

    Question: could you recommend an aquarium manufacturer? The reviews on Aqueon at Petco are scary. The 55 gallons all bowing and leaking. Trying to get into this hobby and buy some plants with a 55 gallon but don’t know who to trust. I’ll test it for leaks but they all seem to be of poor quality. Top Fin is supposedly worse than Aqueon. You have many glass boxes and wood appreciate your help. Thank you

    • @PalmerAquatics
      @PalmerAquatics  Год назад +1

      That’s because the reviews are only from people that are unhappy. All of the happy people are not leaving reviews. Standard 55 gallon aquariums are some of the strongest of all the tanks in the hobby. There’s a couple of sizes that are known to almost never leak. The 20 gallon tall is one of them. The standard 55 gallon aquarium is one of them.
