    Can't believe I didn't realise you were also on the CZcamss, derp. Rectified that by subbing. Excellent tips! Another one for stands, is to make sure everything (stand and aquarium) is level. Don't want extra pressure on some of the seams.

      No worries I don't think I was actually subbed to you either, so I returned the sub. Great point on leveling, didn't think of that. Thanks for the support!

    Oh man!!!! Great video, I would always forget to unplug the heater it would get so hot out of the water that when I put new water in it would crack the heater. Some real good tips in here.

      NYGOLD haha yea I broke my first one that way as well. Luckily nothing got cooked. Thanks for checking it out.

    Great tips in this video! I'm glad you mention all the different safety precautions. I got zapped by a faulty heater once. 0/10 would not recommend lol. I think your last tip about getting fish to match your water is a big one that most beginners don't know about. You can save a lot of time and energy by doing a little research before hand. Great work!

      Thanks! Heaters malfunctioning seem to be a big problem in the hobby still. Seems like everyone I know/watch has a heater story. Appreciate you watching as always and when can we expect a new video from you?

      Down the Worm Hole yea I had a friend that didn't use one and luckily no major damage was done but it did get water all over his carpet, but it could have been a lot worse.

    Oh yeah those common mistakes , totally agree on the patients needed and don't quit .. nothing comes easy but until you found what's the cause of it you'll realise how easy it was :D
    People just tends to give up when they couldn't understand them

    • @AquaApprentice
      @AquaApprentice  Před 7 lety

      Aquatic Haus completely agree, to often people get frustrated and make rash decisions.

  • @jeffsaquariumhobbyenjoymen9468

    Good tips. It's very important for anyone starting out in the hobby to be aware that it's better to be safe than sorry.

    • @AquaApprentice

      Yes I think we all eventually go through something no matter how much we prepare but we can prevent things from being worse. Thanks for watching.

    I've done that before with the heater, I accidentally forgot to unplug it. Bad idea

    • @AquaApprentice
      @AquaApprentice  Před 7 lety +1

      Yes definitely something I have done in the past and have almost done again lol.

    Hey man good to see you doing good! I think that outlets above the ground/water thing is really good. I didnt think of that. mine are off the ground but below the tanks. xD
    About the patience thing; I. hate. it. Dont get me wrong, Im trying to work on it, but ughhhh -.-

    • @AquaApprentice
      @AquaApprentice  Před 7 lety +1

      Lol patience is difficult especially when most of us are so anxious for results. I'm not going to lie I have left stuff on the ground before but really it's just me being lazy and it's not worth the risk. Thank you as always Michaela.
