The Best Type of Aquarium Filter and Why It's the External Canister
The time has finally come to upgrade the filtration on my UNS 5N shallow aquarium! Today I'll be removing the eye-sore hang-on-back filter and replacing it with an external canister. I'll walk you through each step of the process and discuss the aesthetic and biological advantages of external canister filters.

    I am 2.5 weeks into my dark start. I used controsoil and have some seiryu stone in there so far. I have yet to see an ammonia spike or anything to indicate it is cycling. Any suggestions? Was I supposed to add anything to kickstart the cycle like some methods suggest? I am using mostly new filter media but some was from an old torn down tank but it was completely dried out so I don't think it helped start anything much. I put a couple pellets of food in but otherwise it's just the soil, filter, and stone. Appreciate the video and all the info you're willing to share!

    • @LoganRandoAquascaping
      @LoganRandoAquascaping Před 24 dny

      Siphoning, always be careful and use a siphon guard. Trimming, it's impossible to cut a shrimp. They're evolved to dodge something like a scissor at lighting speed. They'll dart away if you get too close

      I almost always use huge external canisters rated for much larger canisters so that essentially lets me add unlimited small fish from a biological perspective. I tend to add 30+ small schooling fish in a 10 gal like this as you get more natural behavior and it still doesn't look crowded

    hey friend- cheers from my fish room in Chicago! I'm a huge fan of your aesthetic and passion for quality it shows. I do have two suggestions. 1) Consider taking the far right rock out of the 60U. this will give you an odd number of stones in keeping with conventions of that style. Stopping the video, I held my thumb over the rock and I thought it looked even better, if that's even possible ;) 2) A great tiny red fish for the tank you asked viewers about: Ruby Tetras.

      @LushSaltyAquariums Před měsícem

      @@LoganRandoAquascaping Ruby tetras are inexpensive, too! Not all Iwagumi aquascapes are of the Sanzon Iwagumi type, meaning a ‘three-pillared rock formation’. In fact, any number of rocks can be used, as long as it is an odd number (3, 5, 7 and so on) so as to avoid that sense of symmetry no one is striving for in aquascaping. But I break a million rules in my fish room so there's that!
