    Thank you for this wonderful in-depth update. I remember being so impressed with the setup video. I'm glad to see how well-loved this tank has been. It is obvious by how beautifully it has matured. It is so difficult to scape a peninsula-style aquarium, and it was genius to make it into a river-style aquascape. It will continue to get better and better as it matures. I adore this tank, and it's really inspired me. Take care, and God bless.

    Cool video. Id recommend raising the electricals in the other side of the bottom part of your tank incase that sump ever leaks. an easy step stool works to put them on top of.

    You should get yourself one of the flexible expandable hoses that expands when filled with water...so much easier to hook up to the faucet and you don't have to battle with the stiff hose. Great video!

  • @KevinLB-kn8mo
    @KevinLB-kn8mo Год назад +1

    Your Peninsula tank is amazing and I especially love your rainbows. Quick tip with starting your siphon. Fill your gravel vac and get rid of all the air like you did in the video at 16:23 and lift it out of the water with the open end up at an angle. When the water starts flowing down the hose, quickly submerge the whole gravel vac back in the tank with the open end still slightly up. The water should then rush in from the top and complete the siphon. No need to suck on the hose on the other end.

    @australianbiotopes4563 Год назад +1

    Nice video Kaity, the natural algae growth is looking good and the fish can feed off it, that is why I keep most of my driftwood in ponds to keep it seasoned, if it was fresh it would of taken much longer for this to happen, it's looking great and I'm glad your happy with it, those rainbows are firing up nicely, this is how shops should display them as they look so bland when you go to buy them in bare tanks but as you can see they are truely beautiful fish, I noticed it's coming back well since the blue acara have been removed, if you manage to get someone to take your leparinus I can come back and put some more plants in for you if you like, they made short work of those softer plants 🙂I would of taken it off your hands but it doesn't really fit into what I do.
