My planted 59 gallon Hagen tank

[Ju5tCh1ll]

Thats a sick tank! idk what you want to do with it, but I think if you threw some red cherry shrimp in there it could possible get better, but fantastic job!

[mandyyew]

tell you teach to set up what kind of lights to bright up the tank ?

and let the plant health !!

[TianTheBest]

how can you get your plants so green?

[DefiniteAquascapeTV]

"G&G" - Green & Great ;) What are the dimensions of this tank...?

[Slatanicgods]

xcellent tank

[therockmaster10]

Nice tank

[AVIJAYCLA]

nice tank. and a first that someone actually plays a good instrumental instead of weird music....

[bloopmnstr]

Beautiful, you did a great job

[yadid]

what filtration system do you use ?

[Number13raw]

@charliechoo are the plants alot of work to maintain?

[15cougarify]

Damn nice tank

[iownupkr66]

Amazing setup well done!

[Stingraylord]

Why aren't the lower leaves of those plants in the back dying? They are completely shaded yet thriving it doesn't make sense.

[ClarissaCiao]

@Stingraylord because thats not how it works. if the plant as a whole is getting the right amount of light and nutrients, the whole plant will thrive. if there isnt enough to go around, then thats when the leaves closer to the light source will be the only ones thriving.

[grroselli1]

at 2:40 what plant is that. how do you clean a fully planted setup?

[martinethson]

beutifull



[pianofreak711]

looks like paradise!

[microiguana]

btw nice tank :P

[meyaxshavat]

Thanks for reply,i have 100 gallon of aquarium,well if we take out the gravel it will be around 90g.im planning to put 6 lamps,because i have 3 but theyr not bright enough.And im gonna use 1 10000K,2 6700 k,1 3000K, 2 6500k T5HO 54W lamps,any advise.?

[sanjai1997]

what kind of fish do you keep in it?

i like what you have done with the plants, but at 0:44 , what plant is that in the center of the video?

[meyaxshavat]

I was wondering what kind of light did you use,i have t5 ho ballast what color temperature did you use?6700K or 6500K or 5500K or 10000k????Please if you can give me advise.

[ShiebMo]

@meyaxshavat Plants need around 6000 to 7000 Kelvin rating to be useful in the aquarium. 10,000K can work but tends to cause algae blooms.

[500bmw1]

Alot of plants there.

[toro80able]

How long you been with this tank? Had you cleaned the whole tank since you started? thanks for posting this video is very nice

[cradleofify]

[Dahmerxx]

Beautiful tank!

[CLONEtrooperECO]

What plants do you put in your tank to make it look like that tell me

[EatMySchwartz61]

Hey, do you mind telling me how often you dose your high growth aquarium? I'm having trouble with my 10 gallon.

[77MAD77MAD77]

Do you use soil in your tank?

[Kirch21x]

[josephandnaomi]

this tank is so nice

[iDoctorProfessor]

Whats a CO2 Pressureizer? And where do I get one? I have some Water Wisterias in mine xD I just planted them from what I heard I don't need a CO2 thing? Just plant them in the gravel and they'll grow.

[ipShAdOw21]

Omg that is heaps good, i wish mine looked like that :(

[quadzilla26b]

hi, can u please give me info on what sort of c02 reactor your using, what sort of gravel are u using and what fertilizer do u use and how long do u leave the light on? thanks! u have a sick tank!!!!

[ZsubzeroheroZ]

how the heck do u keep everything so green!!!

my planted aquarium started to die off n turn brown n shit.. wtf

[Superthecod]

nice videos comment rate and subb ill do the same

[paducahFishFan]

Love everything about this tank. The fish rock as well. Great color and they school well. I can't go CO2 high tech so going that high light will just cause an algae bloom.

If I go high tech this tank is definitely where the bar is at. Great job.

[jonstriforce]

whats the name of the plant the you have on the bottom right side looks like hairgrass kind of

[charliechoo]

@jonstriforce -Blyxa japonica sry 4 the late reply

[josesweet]

[wisator]

[JimDCFCboxer]

[thelegokid0615]

this id one of the best fish tanks i have ever seen. i have never had shrimp and the petstore dosnt no a lot about them so do they contribute to anything or just there like fish

[Disinf3ctant]

The tank looks so beautiful and natural. Are those real aquatic plants?

[pianofreak711]

it's sooooo beautiful, you must be so proud!

is that riccia at 0:45? it looks great:)

[chuong113]

One of the best tank! What kind of gravel do you use? I am wondering where the plant get nutrition from since the gravel is just for keeping the plant from floating around. And is it safe to have a tank like this in a bedroom?

[chuong113]

@chuong113

Oops!!! It is right in the video's info...

[OnlineFishTank]

That is a bloody nice tank, well done!

[MissXMarlboro]

SO SEXY! Perfect contrast of colors and textures. You must have some happy fishes.

[Mothification]

anyone know this song theme name?

[Rouliane1]

Healthy plants !! Very good job, it looks great.

[AdixMix]

awesome tank, congrats ! :D

[TheSickdrift]

What are you using for the carpet?

[danielpicsful]

@TheSickdrift

I think it is eleocharis parvula.

[BassottiSoccorso]

You must be an aquatic gardener!!!

[aymyeyehurts]

i just want to know where you learned how to do this?

[baboon500]

my dream aquarium

[Mothification]

What song is this? BTW anyone know the name of the foreground plant he has at the right side? is that micrograss?

[cdpineda08]

Nicely done. The whole theory behind the EI method is to provide plants with enough nutrients both macro and micro throughout the week so that they can grow fast given the correct lighting and co2. BTW there's a weekly 50% water change with this method to avoid an accumulation of nutrients in the tank. You can read more about this method at BARR Report website. Feel free to check my tank.

[ALNEAL]

@cdpineda08

Would it not be easier to provide the plants with less nutrients each week and do smaller water changes? Why do you run the tank like this?

[ManCichlid]

very nice

[balbsel]

how nice...can u tech me how 2 set up like your aquarium?

[XXGOLDENXXDRAGONXX]

Looks amazing! Congrats

[Adam24021997]

Nice tank but riccia on the front doesnt look like good.

Beautiful aromatica :)

[giggis09]

What is the best way of keeping my plants and fishes happy and healthy?

what should i do to make my plants grow faster and more ?

i dont have heater or Co2 generator, so should i buy them ?

[mrraymond99]

I LIKE IT!!! GREAT JOB...mr ray

[giggis09]

you got nice tank. Do you think that i need a heater to my 200l tank (tropical) and air pump ?? I just wanna here your idea of that

[mrcouch1000]

@giggis09 You will definately need a heat, advisably a 200w one or two smaller ones. An air pump is needed if the aeration is not enough for you fish.

[giggis09]

@giggis09 thanks man

[pianofreak711]

it's. so. gorgeous.

congrats! what plants do you have in there?

[ThePencilShredder]

amazing tank

[schtals]

Id say... brilliant!

[MrKaoVue]

how do you add water to the tank? as when the water vaporizes?

[iownudie108]

whats the EL method on injecting daily fertilizers??? where can i find the info?

[ctarshis01]

Cool though i would like to see some more species in there otherwise one of the best ive eva seen

[ademkokokoko]

[iceee187]

So nice

[Almp18Ai]

What plant are you using as the flooring? Also whats the plant in the far right? Sorry Im new to planted tanks and am really interested. 

[ostmash]

Amazing

[mik2215]

what did u do to the excess and tall plants?? 

[rotcafarg]

Beautiful tank. You have a huge variety of plants in there. I have so many different species that I was going to take a few out, but I might rethink it after seeing this.

[bartg41]

Great tank!

[danielpicsful]

what is the name that plant at 2:12 ?? It is very nice!!

[danielpicsful]

unbelieveable!!! This is wonderful, beautiful, gorgeus, . I d like to make a tank like this!!

[spennyawesomeness]

[Asilex100]

Do you know if I could find any of these nice live plants at Petco or Petsmart? Or any other pet marts?

[rotcafarg]

@Asilex100 Try a website called Aquabid. You can get all kinds of plants there.

[alvagoldbook2]

Gorgeous tank! I hope one day I can make a tank as beautiful as this! Have you considered making a tank journal, or list more details?

[Litameena4chan]

Your tank is AMAZING!!!!!

And was that really the zoom on your camera or a cut in? If it was the zoom alone then that's astounding! D:

[iJacksFishTanks]

it seems impossible to make your hole tank planted... that crap is hard. all my plants just end up dieing. i want you to come to my house and set my tank up lol.... ill pay dead serious.

[alvagoldbook2]

@iJacksFishTanks I'm new to the planted tank world, but I've picked up a LOT of useful tips over at the planted tank forum on planted tank (dot) net.

[bioshock2k]

do you now the name of the music?

awesome aquarium:)

[acidpope1]

Fantastic. Thanks.

[battikans]

Lovely tank - what is the pretty red plant on the right hand side?

[supertrainlover]

i love the music !

[k9feces]

Koralia powerheads are amazing, the best thing i have bought for my tank besides CO2.

[charliechoo]

Thanks to everyone for the kind remarks & suggestions

[Lta075]

@charliechoo 2:40 that plant is that?

[tosendprashan]

@charliechoo

have you put soil in to the tank?

[charliechoo]

Sorry for not been more responsive, if you have any specfic questions please do contact me i`ll try to answer time permitting..

The co2 system is pressurized ( Co2 bottle- co2 regulator & inline reactor)

CO2 is used as a transport for Carbon, plant tissue is largely made up by carbon, so in short -yes it`s vital for growth, but requirement of supplementing it is dependent on lighting conditions & other factors ,

[charliechoo]

Sorry for not been more responsive, if you have any specfic questions please do contact me i`ll try to answer time permitting..

The co2 system is pressurized ( Co2 bottle- co2 regulator & inline reactor)

Substrate is all eco complete

Lighting is now supplied by

1 x double hagen glo T5 HO for 9 hrs

1X single hagen glo T5 HO for 3 hrs

[mrJBKfilms]

What filtration system do you use?

[charliechoo]

@mrJBKfilms filtration is 2 eheim pro II 2026 filters

[patrick258181]

beautiful are you running compact florescence and what kind of a CO2 set up do you have and substrate If you could put in description or just to me that be great

[nuggetwetyou]

is C02 vital for optimum plant growth?

as im just starting to develop a planted tank. i have angels, (quite large)

would they eat plants? what are the strongest of plants by your experience:

[jkennedy1007]

Wow that tank is set up so sweet

you should switch up the rasboras though

somthing more hard to get in the hobbie world

(cold water killies, long body discus, cockatoo aggazi's , german blue ram's)

Really would make it stand out more =)

[cdpineda08]

I like the overall design of your tank. Nice choice of plants and your water seems very clear. I'm sure the fish feel happy there. Thanks for sharing.

[mercedesff2]

is that a red dragon I see?

[Adex132]

I just purchased a Juwel RIO240 tank (62g) with 2x54W T5s.....that makes it 1.75WPG. I m going install a juwel reflector for the bulbs...does that improve the WPGs since light is reflected more?

[puma7868]

Wow amazing tank!!! I like it :)

[rdytoutube]

Tankolicious

[puzzone84]

superlativo

[blinded974]

wow amzing

[YoDaJedEye]

Your tank looks amazing and I like your music selection. Is there an artist?

[zakartaz]

great tank.

[SnakesAndCupcakes]

What grass is that on the bottom of the tank ?? Amazing tank btw

[ZombieMulcher]

whhhooooo who does the music! nice tank btw



[kmequalwynn]

Hi Charlie,

I just bought some eco-complete for my 11.5g. Did you use any other substrate to go under and/or over the EC? I was told to put some sort of gravel on top of the EC, but I like the dark color...

[charliechoo]

@kmequalwynn no need to mix substrate, the tank is all Eco complete

[tengazako]

@kmequalwynn if you were going to do anything it would be to have a fertilized substrate beneath a top layer of eco-complete. eco is an inert substrate, and you need to fertilize with it to get plants nutrients.

[1992pattrow]

That tank is beautiful!

[yitzy100]

what kind of t5 bulb are you using?

[charliechoo]

@yitzy100 gGeseman daylight & Aquaflora

[zabelkid]

nice tank.
