553. Taking back the 220. Re aquascaping and designing the 220 pl

The 220 got outta hand and now I am getting my design style back with it. It's hard to do a video while doing the work, but here is where we are so far. I am happy with the start. It just takes time. The biggest thing i did in the tank was to remove all kinds of extra plants from it. Starting clean is key. I have more work to do but am excited about aquascaping this bad boy again

if his plants are a little more expensive then don't purchase them? why are you climbing up his arse about it. You can see from his videos his plants are in tanks with good dirt so i'm guessing they are better quality than other peoples plants.

@mybackpocket thanks bro....and yeah, I totally get them rolling with dirt and nutrients that most places can't possibly provide in their setups....someones gotta be the hater ;)

I like Paypal personally for purchases. So please keep accepting it! And could you talk more about floating plants? I'm digging Frogbit currently. Just got my first batch of that.

[Dustinsfishtanks]

@Tommyr Hey Tommy, still doing paypal, you'll have the option to go with paypal or regular cc. I've got some watersprite I'll talk about... I need to get some frogbit, what's it scientific name?

Hey D do u pull of the new growth from ur java fern and re plant that so thatt the main leaf grows bigger.

[Dustinsfishtanks]

@FishAreBeast You can, I am lazy and don't typically.but this is a good move...

[TigerBarbTanks]

Yo Dustin man, you gotta sort out your international shipping because if you began to ship to Australia i'd be digging tons of your plants, you stuff is tons cheaper than everything in australia, we get ripped off blind when we wanna buy plants. The City Farmers down the road charge $25 for a mid grown Amazon sword...!

its so awesome how i can go into a fish shop almost anywhere in the USA and start talking about plants and youtube and your name always comes up HAHA

[Stingraylord]

Also what kind of lights do you use on those tanks?

[Stingraylord]

If the plants have holes in them I doubt that's a lack of nutrients, more likely a few snails nibbled on them. The same thing happened to my java fern after I fed my puffers some snails and not all of them got eaten.

@ShinyCard255 go to this guys channel and you will see what a SHAM he is..... Free plants my ass

[mybackpocket]

@ShinyCard255 the man has a ton of subsribers, if everyone asked for a free clipping, he won't have much to sell now will he? He's got two kids and a wife to look after and provide for pal..think about it.

[ToolPride]

what a sweet tank set up man. do you use a co2 system?



[lanegjones]

@ShinyCard255 send me some clippings and ill send you some

[ShinyCard255]

@Dustinsfishtanks I watch the videos cuz you do give good advice, but I also contribute by giving my clippings from my plants away for free to hobbyists rather than making money off of them (and they appreciate that)

@Dustinsfishtanks Limnobium laevigatum. Thanks Dustin!
