That was cool
That's so interesting. Thank you 😊
Nice tip!
if you have a Harbor freight store near you, they have rare earth magnets that are like 1.99 for 2, 1.5"l × 3/4"w × 1/2"d.
Great tip!
clear pond sealant is your thing
Yes. I will definitely use this technique in my substrate/sand mixed tanks 🙂
What tank is that? Does it have a hood with an integrated light that's sufficient for growing plants? Even the more difficult ones that require CO2? I'd be thrilled to find that.

The tank is the Fluval Flex 32.5! fluvalaquatics.com/us/shop/product/freshwater-32-5-freshwater It has a hood with an Aquasky 2.0 LED, which will successfully grow most low and medium light plants. More demanding plants that require CO2 will generally benefit from a more powerful LED, like a Fluval Plant 3.0!
Hey Fluval, I just want to mention that I really loved your BIO CO2 Pro, I had bought the medium size (66 US Gallon) for my 30 gallon tank but I was hoping to catch your attention so that I can mention to you how great an external heater would be. If you could design one meant for the FX series that would be great and would buy immediately.

Hi there! We're thrilled to hear you're happy with your Bio-CO2 Pro system. We've forwarded your suggestion of an external heater to our product development team! 👍
Use a brush to get it off the magnet without crushing the pellets?

Yep! Tapping the magnet against the side of a bucket or something works too. 👍
Help help help. Need surface skimmer for fx6 , nothing fits factory hose size Why would you not have add ons available for products
Magnetic soil... So much for dosing with SEACHEM'S Iron! 😂😂😂
😮
OMG! And how come Fluval won't make a Plant 3.0 in a length designed for this tank? Do you have 1 or 2 Lights in there?

Hi there! There's a single Aquasky 2.0 LED on the tank.
Does it work for all types of aquarium soil.?

There is that much metal in the Fluval stratum? Doesn’t sound good for the fish

Clay maintain the shape of the aquasoil. Go put some potting soil into your aquarium & see what happen.

This trick works with every type of aquarium soil - there's no danger to the fish whatsoever.
I love the info but have to listen to just the audio because he stares into my soul 🤣
Looks like you have way too much time on your hands way too much patience going through that much trouble .

15-20 minutes worth of work is not that difficult or time consuming for Great Looking tanks 🙂

Aquascaping is all about time and patience, so maybe these types of aquariums just aren't for you! That's okay - the great part about the fishkeeping hobby is that there's something for everyone. 😊
This presentation is unbearable.
