My *LAST* FISH ROOM TOUR!! Things Are Going to Change!
าฎะน ะถะฐะฝัะฐัะปะฐัั ะผะตะฝ ะฐาฃะดะฐั
Ryo Watanabe's Fish Room Tour! Finally, we have the full tour of my fish room that I've put together in the last 2 years. I've been pretty happy with all the progress but have decided it's time to change things up a little bit. I'm going to transform this room into a gallery and have less tanks but better scapes! It's a shame I didn't even get to complete the current version of the fish room but I promise the new one will be even better :)

I know many of you have been waiting for this tour! The fish room is going to get a huge makeover. Iโve been inspired by some things recently and canโt wait for the new changes that will happen. I know I didnโt even get to complete this fish room and thatโs probably another reason why I need to change! I canโt keep up with so many tanks ๐ฅฒ So itโs time to lessen the number of tanks and build a showroom

Great idea, and GREAT tour, Ryo. I think you are soo right with the "less is more" approach. I am also doing that now. You may want to paint the floor some shade of brown to match the stands and beams, and keep the warm tones going. It will be BEAUTIFUL. I would advise against laminate flooring as it will not tolerate water. But you can use vinyl plank that looks like wood and can handle water. That's what I did when my house flooded. ๐คฆโโI also love the wood grains! I chose live edge wood slabs with beautiful grain for my next stand. I am going to just sand and polyurethane it. You can't beat the beauty of nature. You're doing so well, Ryo.

ะัะป ะฑาฑััะฝ
Bruh !!! Ryo, I have loved all your videos, passion for the hobby and chilled nature ... But you are taking on a massive amount of work which YOU SHOULD MAKE A WRITTEN PLAN FOR, BEFORE YOU BEGIN... To make planning easier for yourself. To start, your doorway is very small, will your new sofa fit through the doorway or will you have to buy a dismantled sofaโ Your new gallery will need heating for visitors ( which will in turn, heat your tanks ) โ
@RyoWatanabee
ะัะป ะฑาฑััะฝ
@@dinodinosaur2930 Hi, thank you. Last year, I added insulation and walls. I also got an air conditioner installed which I use during the hottest and coldest months. The sofa I intend to get is a two seater so itโs compact. For large items, you may have been able to see some point in the video that there is a large sliding door next to my 4ft contest aquarium. Thank you for your concern. Iโve been planning and am looking forward to this change ๐
@RyoWatanabee
ะัะป ะฑาฑััะฝ
@@LeilaSoleil Thank you, youโre right!! Vinyl plank is what I wanted but to do the entire fish room is $$$ I canโt do that ๐ So Iโll just paint the floors for now. I really want a light colored floor because I feel it brightens up the room and I want to be able to see things on the floor. I will stick with light grey as itโs a similar look to concrete and also because I love the look of the ADA gallery in Niigata.
@dinodinosaur2930
ะัะป ะฑาฑััะฝ
@@RyoWatanabee ๐ I didn't see the sliding door... I didn't see your insulation and aircon in your videos... I didn't want to see unforseen hurt you during your re-fit project... I WISH I WAS IN JAPAN TO HELP... HOPE YOUR COUSIN CAN GIVE YOU A HAND OR TWO ๐๐
I had a hair algae problem in my neocaridina tank. I just adjusted the lights to be a little lower and it helped get rid of it. I don't inject any CO2 into my neo tank and I still got rid of it.
I suggest painting with warm colors which can enhance the beauty of the patterns and will bring a cozy ambiance to your fish room. I am also building a tiny fish farm and your video is so inspirational for me to keep working on my project. Thank you.
@RyoWatanabee
ะัะป ะฑาฑััะฝ
Youโre right :) Cozy fish room is great!
Plans look & sound great. Always appreciate the natural wood grains.
Iโm sure a lot of people pay no attention to the wood, but I notice it like you, as well. I look forward to seeing the changes youโll make.

Envy you to have such a nice big room for your hobby and supportive parents. Thumbs up!
Love the direction you're heading. I'm really looking forward to seeing what you do.
Thank you Ryo. Good video.
Nice tour of your fishroom. We'll wait for your another newly fishroom tour. Great Effort Ryo.
good thing you have come to a proper pathway and conclusion for your hobby as it kinda shows in previous videos that you were kind of all over the place ._. but no matter what you did previously, it is all about progress and baby steps of it all the way, never stop learning and never give up.. keep up the good work and always improve
@RyoWatanabee

Yes! Youโre exactly right! I was always having a hard time figuring out what I really wanted. Now I know for sure and Iโm so excited for it!

Sad to see this setup go, but excited see what's next, good luck with your build!
Hey Ryo, great news :) I hope you can implement some Japanese Stile into your new fish room. Like the one you did a video of (the private ada gallerie) . I think people would enjoy that a lot โบ๏ธ - Greetings from Germany

cant wait to see what happens to the fish room!
Use a blow torch to scorch a piece of wood then rub the wood down and add a coat of danish oil or briwax, worth a go and you might like the finish you get if you like grain showing, awesome video tho โค๏ธโค๏ธ๐๐๐๐

@@LuckAqua ever aquascaper's fish room is messy we all have to agree on that๐. But a aquascape gallery don't have that many tanks that's why its easier to maintain. I am interested on the future video cause as he said he is going to renovate this fishroom in to a gallery and travel around japan and other countries for aquarium shop tour. Really excited โบ๏ธ

@@rdaquascaper8490 Haha, it's very true about how messy we are after joining this hobby. We have stuff everywhere and sometimes we forget about the thing we just used a second ago :D But the Japanese are perfectionists so I think they would want their fish room to be completely clean and organized. BTW, I am always excited about his reviews of fish stores. I hope to see more JP fish stores. Thanks for the reply.
good tour
Beautiful tanks. โคโค
I'm loving the nano rack as well! I'm wondering if you ever did a video on building that rack and the water change system. Would be cool if you do!

So jealous! I wish I could have a fish room in my spare room in my apartment but I travel abroad too often and have nobody that could look after them! keep up the great work! greetings from UK.
To reduse alge of any kind. Put live floating plants such as mini water ledace, red root leaf floaters. As far as plant care a natural liquid fertilizer is better. Also try reduseing your lingting. But the ultimate is floating plants it will reduse alge.
Ohhhh can't wait to see the floors painted. Will you be using a garage floor epoxy? Looking forward to all the new things coming.
@RyoWatanabee
ะัะป ะฑาฑััะฝ
Iโll just be using grey concrete paint. I no itโs not the best and probably will start peeling off in the future but I could just touch up.
So either you have someone reliable to help you lift and move things or you are jacked bro!! Even empty the bigger tanks are a pain to move. Best of luck and God speed my fish brother!
@RyoWatanabee
ะัะป ะฑาฑััะฝ
The 3ft tanks arenโt that heavy ๐ itโs the 4ft tanks that are going to be a challenge
Change the flex tube on the bad diffuser, if the bubble rate is good on the outside and bad in the tank, you probably have a small leak in that line

Thanks for sharing the experience.
Thank you for this tour!!! One cuestiรณn, the chihiros vivid II make fan noise? Or its silence? Thx!!
If you were to sand your current stands with sand paper it would bring back a lot of the woods original colour and leave all the attractive grain stained making it stand out even more. But then you have to sand everything, I understand making new stands.
@RyoWatanabee
ะัะป ะฑาฑััะฝ
That, and Iโm changing the design of the stands. Instead of racking system, Iโm going for one stand per tank

No medakas? A few varieties would make a beautiful addition!
at petco and petsmart alot of the times they do not have the pairs to sell. it is eather a female or a male.

You have the metal legs on the WRGB II Pro, can they also be used on the WRGB II instead of the acrylic stands? They do not mention it on the site, but the dimensions are the same, not sure if the mounting hardware is so that might be the only reason they couldn't.
@RyoWatanabee
ะัะป ะฑาฑััะฝ
Yes, the mounting hardware is different. I believe the WRGB II only has the option of stock legs (the set that it originally comes with) or the acrylic legs.

and that sucks because I want to breed a lot of the fish, they sell but it is so hard to get a good pair. so, I just go to a lot of stores and look for fish. I think they do it so you can't breed the fish.
