563. Naked 220, Still Cleaning. Christmas Comes Early--- Eheim Re

Still tearing out plants in the 220 to see what I am really working wtih. Its tough getting back into that mindset. I'm gonna go low tech on this tank, easy plants and platns that don't need trimmed all the time. Also Jacked that Eheim stepped up and sent me a free filter. I have to think about the best place to run this sucker. While I wouldn't have bought this version, If it's Free, it's all me.

It's sad to see the 220 so bare but I'm sure you'll bring it back even better!

Hey diggity dank dustin, I just got some boesemani rainbows from the store and they weren't the most colorful and they're still young but right when I put em in my 29 they got a lot better looking. You think there's any chance they'll look as good as yours? lol I know you got some purebreds or something haha

Give the baby tears a a go for the carpet! That eheim filter looks sweet! Been using one for a couple years and it's great , keep us updated on that model as I'm looking to up grade soon. Thanks for the videos ! Merry Xmas

how much dirt will i need for my 29 gallon tank?also,is it alright to put sand on top of the dirt instead of gravel?thanks

Definitely go high tech. Just choose plants that don't require that much trimming and maintenance.

Great video as usual bro. I have noticed that you don't use a whole lot of moss in your tanks. I think it would be sweet to heavily moss your 220 with some bright green moss, or even some dwarf baby tears. Then fill it in with some larger darker plants to offset the color. Good luck with your plan, pumped to see how it will turn out!

@Dustinsfishtanks If you want it to sink, put in skinny metal rods to make it heavier and i also put magnets in my drift wood and stuck a magnet under the stand and it sunk

Keep it simple and plant that shit with jungle vals and something like dwarf sag. Then you can scatter some other stuff around like anubias and java fern. Once that grows in it will look like a totally natural jungle. Then you could always add some other stuff here and there to see what you like.
