I absolutely love your work! Keep up the incredible work as you keep inspiring me each time. Thank you 🙏🏼🙏🏼

Все очень красиво, но!! Где же дренаж? Где аэрация и фильтрация для рыбок? 😮

How do you keep it algae free?

Beautiful

Beautiful build, except I wouldn’t put a neon tetra in anything smaller than 10 gallons. These are schooling shoaling fish that want room to move.This is extremely restrictive. Maybe five or six chili rasboras nothing bigger than that.

Both simple and very pleasing to the eye. Thank you.

I put my leaves in hot water, I also let them sit for some days. This way I can actually get the germs out and bacteria and kill them. Your video Is a blessing to my eyes.

Thanks to everyone who mentioned the tank size, looking back, I do agree it was an oversight on my part. I’ve since moved the tetras into a larger tank with more swimming space. I really appreciate the feedback and will certainly make another tank in this style, but on the larger side.
