- Feeding station / floating plants trap DIY
This is my take on fish feeding stations. It also doubles as floating plants trap.
Floating plants get rid of ammonium and nitrate. Basically lots of bad stuff in the water are sucked up by the plants. Floating plants are easy to keep because the leaves are out of the water and can get all the co2 they need.
Happy 2017! The year of the rooster :)

That tank in the last few seconds of the video was the prettiest and most unique thing I've seen done with duckweed. Really want to try that out myself now. Wonderful video, thank you.
Check out his other videos to see that tank better - it's out of this world beautiful
The acrylic tube is so pretty! I'm happy you thought of the waterbottle alternative though, that I can afford 😅
the only reason for bottles to go into water
ごみ [Dawn] パイル oh my god I 100% agree
You've got very pretty hands
leetlebob I was thinking that too
Pretty handy as well
True but it’s creepy
I agree even tho it may seem creepy looks like they moisturize
I made mine out of a piece of airline hose a spare airline connector and an old suction cup. All the parts where left overs from other aquarium stuff but to buy all the stuff is very cheap.
The acrylic tube is my favorite - awesome!
I don't know what I just watched or why I watched it, but I like it
I needed this to keep my duck weed away from filter and to make a feeding ring. Thanks
Damn, this is awesome. I'm gonna make the straw one. Thanks for sharing!
This is what I've been looking for. Every one of these ideas are smart & practical. Thank you!!! 🤗
Don't know why I even watched this... I don't even have a fish tank or want to get one...
lee moore 😂
lee moore because it's still cool to see? Idk I have tanks and love animals
lee moore u should get one
do u want to watch some pot video?
🤣
Dear God I love your hands, whenever I see that type of hand, it really make me jealous I got the childlike one and is pretty small
Aside from that, your videos are really helpful and I thank you for that, keep up the good work!
Dont worry my wife got that type of hand like yours even fatter and I still love her with all my heart 😁
Simply genius ! Thank you .
Really liked the look of the black square straw one..thanks for the vid!!
This video deserves more likes, I wish I could give more than a like. So neat!
love your videos. informative and creative
Just be careful with the 2L plastic bottle one. Sharp edges can injure your fish 🐠.
How the hell do you not have more subs?!
@Aquarium Channel 1.7M WOW
Idk who you are but ur ingenious
brilliant, thanks for sharing !!!

You can just use air tubing and a connector!
i found a easy way to connect the bendable straws, if you cut 1 end on a angle like 45 degrees you can fit them into the ends of the straws so you dont need super glue and it wont sink either!
Such dope ideas thank you!🥰🌱🐟
Excellent Video!
Loved it Sir.
Awesome ideas!
Great video
I love your channel!
Muchos Gracias!
Clever! This is great
GREAT Ideas 👍

Happy new year. I'll make one for my frogbit. many thanks

HAPPY NEW YEAR BRO ... please meet us with ur foo fh .please it's a new year wish to you.................

Nice !
the bottle one is the best
This is genius.
YOURSUCHAGENIUSJJFKDKEKKEKKEIM!!!!!im going to make the last one! thank you!! :)
Thank you
Very cool. I'll have to make a few of these for my tanks. I've been wanting to put duckweed in a tank, but I heard it's like the herpes of fish tanks. You just cant get rid of it once it's in there. This could help create an area for the fish to eat or surface for o2(betta). Very cool super glue. I've never seen a kind with a brush before.
I'm just learning about duckweed, but I get the impression it's also a problem for your plants, as they can gas exchange and get the light they need. Maybe put the duckweed in the holder and feed on the outside?
Defintely spreads across these tubes eventually, and based on the no CO2 no FILTER videos, youll have excess to throw out. But having a flowing water surface is supposed to limit the spread also
Hey man, what sort of acrylic tube do you use? I've tried this with air tube, CO2 tube, but it always folds in on itself, even after trying to heat it. The one you use, seems very stiff, it almost sounds like really hard plastic?
Try the soft silicone type. I've been using it for plant rings for a while, works great
👍
You can tell this man has OCD or some form of particular anxiety. I have it as well so I know, I love it. Everything is backtracked and done perfectly. Subbed
where do you buy acrylic tube that narrow?
The bottle idea is pretty smart, Im using airhose and aquarium sealant currently. But seeing if I can find more ideas. Though I can't clip it to the side of the tank, so hoping it just floats in the one spot with low water flow
You can get a suction cup with a clip that will hold the hose.
can I us2 tape to attach the straw one since I want to tape the plants out of the trap since my plants get stuck in the output of my hang on back filter and die since frogbit need to be c
kept dry
is the holder needed? mine will stay where i want it as long as it completely floats i would be good .. made one with air line and it kindasinks where the connecter is so the plants keep getting over it.
I use 4 bendy straws and fold one end and slide the straws together to make a rectangle and then fill it with floaters. The tubing glued seems like id be a little stonger though. Edit: didn’t know this video was 4 years old lol.
...genius.
😊👍
Where do you get the small diameter acrylic tubing like the 3mm acrylic tube you use in the Walstad tank? I'm having trouble finding any that small...
I got them at a big local hobby shop. it isn't a chain. I tried to search google, and you're right, 3mm ones are very difficult to find. but 5mm ones are almost no different in the way it works.
Take some fishing line and tie a pothos branch to form a circle, put it on a circular container, fill it with water and let it under some natural sunlight for a week.
Thanks me later, only bad thing I've seen is that Leaves move to direction of light so if you don't have a lamp on top they will all point to one direction
What is the plant that you use in the aquarium seems nice
Where did you buy that long acrylic tube? All I can find on the web, is tubes in 305mm lengths.
2:25 you could also just use the air tubing
Probably used straws for the rectangular shape.
@@your_belly plastic straws are illegal now its contraband. this video needs adult rating?
Where do you buy the acrylic tubing?
Do you sell acrylic tube rings? Id love to buy some
Is this dangerous to do w airline tubing? A fish can’t get tangled up in the tubing ring right? I have a 10 inch goldfish in only a 75 gallon so im wondering what can work plz help
Was the acrylic a solid tube? I need one but not sure if it floats
It's not the solid kind. It's hollow tube.
@@FootheFlowerhorn ok thanks
so... how do u use it??? i dont get it.. feeding station ? the food just floats all over ??
It stops floating food from being distributed all over the tank's surface. The fish soon get used to coming to the feeder at mealtimes!
I sometimes used to use the little ring that holds a live tubifex feeder cone.
Where do you get the acrylic tubes
Nappy jew new to you and foo 🎊🎉💥
Nappy jew new to you, too. :) :)
Awesome, bro did you check my deworming flowerhorn video? Give me suggestions.
looks like things went well. did you add food into the mix? you might not need to add food. hope she gets better soon.
Yes i did as I feared the medication might be too strong for the flowerhorn.
Bro, just make one for me and send it in the mail. I'll pay hahahaha
Foo shops at Ikea. I have the same glasses and the table is from there too.
Do u sell the last one? Those in the market are so ugly .
Whats that plant called? That circle like umbrella plant
Frogbit
What brand of super glue is that?
it's generic. most people use loctite. they also sell brush on ones.
Where are you from?
what glue brand do you use?
loctite 401
Where did you get the acrylic tube?
you can find it on amazon or ebay. 3mm ones are very difficult to find, but 5mm ones will work just fine.
I would say that if you have strong filtration, causing a lot of surface movement, the 5mm may actually be better.
Could one use rigid airline tubing?
yea, as long as it floats, I think it'll work.
i made one with airline but the plants are still getting into it .. so think im going to try one of these .. the connecter made it a little heavy i guess cause it kinda sinks on that end of it.
lance wixom Maybe just superglue the cut ends together?
I wonder if this would work with airline tubing......Hmm maybe it would be too flexible? Has anyone tried this out ? Thanks in advance :0)
Airline tubing works fine, then i use a t-connector to join those tubes
what is his name?
he's Geronimo.
Cikgu Fahmi are you watching this ? I'm sorry for everything T^T I want to Send a signal to you because ily . I'm falling for you
ANTI-ECOLOGICAL METHOD. =/
please dont use anymore music like this
Why have a channel and not bother to reply of any of the comments? that's very disrespectful for your subscribers and people who view your videos! You get paid for the views at least have the decency to reply.
Hmm, not sure where this is coming from, but I do reply to questions. I used to reply every day when I didn't have many subs, but now, sometimes I get hundreds of questions a day or more when a video does well, and some of them require more than one liner for an answer. This takes a lot of time. sometimes hours. It's hours I don't have these days just sitting in front of my computer everyday answering questions. Hope you understand.
