NO FILTER On FAIL! No Maintenence Fishtank FAIL part 2

Dustin's Fish Tanks

No Maintenance Fish Tank. More like MO- Maintenance fish tank. This sucker had NO FILTER ON for Probably over a week long. Fun fun. You can see how the NO Maintenance tank turned into a Maintenance Monster in a short amount of time. NO FILTER will do that to you. Wish me luck as I scrub this sucker.

Have you considered adding a timer for the light? They have them for like $5 at most home improvement stores....

2nd Chance - 7 years ago

So it's okay to run straight tap-water into your tank and then add your dechlorinator. Seeing that I'm going to upgrade to a 55 or a 75 gallon this year need to figure out how to do massive water changes thanks in advance

Dustin's Fish Tanks - 7 years ago

2nd Chance it's not the best, but I do it- just do it fast!!

Two words: Backup Filter
Where is the corner or sponge filter incase something happens to the Fluval?

that terrain what fish like

The Budget Aquarist - 7 years ago

I siphoned a small Molly into the sump pit I use for my water changes. I have no idea how long it was there, but it managed not to get sucked into the sump. I found it when my wife dropped something and it rolled into the sump pit. Fish are amazing!

Casper Shaw - 7 years ago

lol you're talking to yourself ... people walk in and their like who the hell is that dude talking to .... may think im a freak xDDD dude your picture is of you licking a plant .... xD

Brett Jolly - 7 years ago

you should get some siamese algae eaters they should eat that stuff up keep the plants clean

karen pereira - 7 years ago

So, first of all LMAO... songs and jokes... I can't believe you use some chemical to fix it (okay I use marine blue for any foul smell). You have to do a water change once a month, it's an aquarium. Leave the hoses under the tank so your wife can do it... no one wants to scare the children. hahaha Peace and Hugs KP

MrMovieman174 - 7 years ago

No disrespect but you are the stereotypical fish tank guy. I admire that. I maintain a 90 gal at my uncles and convinced him to go from a half empty stank salt water to a nice planted community. I just swing by and do my maintenance and leave with swag like you. Keep the videos up man!

Put some apple snails, they eat algae like spaghetti, not saying they could fix it I'm just saying it makes it slightly better.

Dreaded88 - 7 years ago

Does Fluval make any kind of Beeping-Alarm to show it's not getting power, like a USB Battery? Possibly, run an Arduino Systems Monitor that can report it's status to your PC, or Smartphone?
Would your wife, or the manager/owner of the lcinic be willing to spring for an
Personally, I think it might've been a kid who vandalized the tank! >:(
Electrician to install what's called a Floor Pocket, right beneith, or inside of the cabinet? This would help.
LOCKING CABINET DOORS!!! :D

Danny Farrell - 7 years ago

To be honest, I think it looks good like that

Dylan Miller - 7 years ago

I forget, did you use mineralized soil? Peat and other organic ingredients can do that if they're not removed.

RICK LETT - 7 years ago

+He's kinda has to drag everything around by himself. Needs mucho slack on this one.

david diehl - 7 years ago

I would put a camera in to see what exactly is causing the problem. Weather they over feed, lighting or people are messing in the tank.

visualkeirockstar - 7 years ago

long fin rosy barb would take care of it.

Avy Aulonocara - 7 years ago

"...on my nonprofit wifi." Lmfao
But at least the tank is really well-scaped. :-/

Can I do a 2ft tank with no filter but a mini water pump that acts as a wavemaker for water movement ?

Aquatic Haus if you got plants and keep up with it I don't see why not

Happy birthday

MP - 7 years ago

I'm gonna mark out for a second and say that I just placed an order for several plants on your website. I'm gonna try to grow them with Seachem fluorite and regular water changes. I'm too big of a pussy to try a dirted tank right now, and I killed everything in my tank last summer with some ghetto ass root tabs I ordered on Ebay from some meth addict...
I recently talked my wife into letting me upgrade my tank from a 45gl to a 120gl. If I try dirt and fuck it up, she will reconsider the tank upgrade. Anyways, I look forward to receiving my order and re-scaping my tank. All I have is a full carpet of dwarf sag, so I'm pumped to see how things are gonna look when I'm done.

Kevin spacey - 7 years ago

siamese algae eaters would tear up that algae in a day or two..

Paul G - 7 years ago

Hey Dustin,First time commenter, I have followed this tank since you first set it up. Correct me if I'm wrong but you used a ton of osmocote. I think that is contributing to your algae problem. I think if you changed the substrate you could really get closer to no maintenance. I tried the osmocote at about that same time and I'm still finding it in my aquarium. The stuff takes forever to dissolve. I'm a recent convert to pool filter sand and find my plants are doing just as well in it. I think your landscape would look awesome with the pool filter sand. You always talk about how cheap it is, why not show us how to use it. Keep up the good work and tank on!

jayden chow - 7 years ago

works for me no water change

Cari Duncan - 7 years ago

Can you add Amano Shrimp to help with the Algae.

Lelani Dixon - 7 years ago

Give us a final look at how the tank looked when you finished.

Tainted Meat - 7 years ago

That is one nasty tank !...It could be the worst I've seen in my 50 years in this hobby but I know you can handle this !

Lars K - 7 years ago

So why do you know what A** smells like....:)

Christopher Meadows - 7 years ago

have u ever tried hydrogen peroxide in a spray bottle to clean it

Christopher Meadows - 7 years ago

looks like alot of hair algae

Scowling Wolf - 7 years ago

need snails me thinks

Fish life - 7 years ago

I was hoping you would'nt whip the python out in the toilet hahaha

James Goose - 7 years ago

DIrty D, pls edit these. Unedited videos are like tanks full of algae - they don't look so great! Make them sexy like you make your tanks!

Dustin's Fish Tanks - 7 years ago

you see i've stepped it up with the edits recently for yazzzz :) Here is a look at how I battled ALGAE and WON in the No Maintenance tank recently ;) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HLlJgdgiJa4&index=3&list=PLnw3D5LLGih2HiRelHWoiTZQ2EqoO3VuF

GManPro - 7 years ago

The Budget Aquarist I get that part, but his videos are very watchable, it's not like it's shaking dramatically, it's still easy to watch and I agree people want better quality videos, but editing is a reason why some people lose enjoyment of YouTube, it becomes a job more then a hobbie

The Budget Aquarist - 7 years ago

G Man Gotta agree with the other guy....all the shakey cameras and turning around and stuff is a little rough to watch. We all want Dustin to succeed, and there is nothing wrong with pointing out nicely what would make the videos better. My wife and daughter HATE to watch shaky cameras...and if they turn off the video, that's not helping D at all. Best regards.

James Goose - 7 years ago

I don't think I'm having much of an impact, buddy.

GManPro - 7 years ago

James Goose you're the reason why people are getting tired of YouTube. Just let them make videos the way they want to. It takes away the fun of it

Ruthlyss Targaryen - 7 years ago

James Goose it was a live stream, no editing required.

James Goose - 7 years ago

I don't need to be a YouTuber to offer suggestions. Especially when I'm saying something so painfully obvious as editing improves your video's presentation. Do I need to be an automotive engineer to say that cars should be painted? Of course not - its obvious. By the way, Dustin has mentioned before that he needs to start editing so you're just being silly.

Nike Swoosh - 7 years ago

Disagree. Editing not necessarily needed. But could have turned off the live and then come back live towards end.

david diehl - 7 years ago

James, don't see any f your videos on here.

Avy Aulonocara - 7 years ago

James Goose Editing schmediting ;-p

James Goose - 7 years ago

hahaha get that caveman with the nice teeth to do it for you!

Dustin's Fish Tanks - 7 years ago

+James Goose gahhh editing blows- but ok

Roger Dedham - 7 years ago

Wow it looks like my 75 gallon window aquarium without any lighting because I'm poor tank. Lol

Jumalten001 - 7 years ago

Honestly I would setup an automatic Flourish Excel pump, that stuff clears out algea super quick.

Mike Radcliffe - 7 years ago

Jared Friesen flourish comprehensive is nutrients, so yes. Flourish excel is a form of liquid carbon used in place of pressurized CO2. The active ingredient is gluteraldehyde which is decent at eliminating types of algae.

Jared Friesen - 7 years ago

Jumalten001 really ? Wouldnt flourish just feed the algae

Tim Bracco - 7 years ago

Would a wrap around background help block some of the light

Dustin's Fish Tanks - 7 years ago

+Tim Bracco that'll kill the scape look- but it's probably a good idea

Anthony Lujano - 7 years ago

Yo d. I know you the man at fish tanks and all. But that's being said. I have a no maintenance tank that I do 60% water changes every two or so mounts and no algae. I run mad carbon in the tank have a fitted tank and the plants went crazy. Took all the plants from that 10 gallon and filled a 40 breeder with it. Try the carbon son.

Dustin's Fish Tanks - 7 years ago

+Anthony Lujano I might just have to try this out ;)

angelo hahn - 7 years ago

Is he a firefighter??

Dustin's Fish Tanks - 7 years ago

this shirt was given to me from my guy John in NYC (no I am not a fire fighter :)

Rob Lewis - 7 years ago

Looks awesome

mef1975 - 7 years ago

Florida Flag fish will eat that algae all up if you starve them. They ate my wisteria too. The amanos would probably get eaten too. I also have my tank on like a 6 hour light cycle because of ambient light that almost never goes off (maybe 4 hours of darkness, if that). I put in a pothos vine and riccia fluitans to help with excess nutrients, but yeah, duckweed is great. Also had to dim the lights a bit. You should stick some black nerites in there just for the heck of it.

Richard O'connor - 7 years ago

Wow algee farming.

Helen Eisler - 7 years ago

Check water a parameters. Also, maybe add more plants.

John2891 - 7 years ago

you're a genius.

eisenklad - 7 years ago

platies dont mind alge... i let my tank filter unplugged for a few months after i had an anchorworm outbreak. decimated all my glass and neon tetras and red platies.

idk if i have hair algae or just thick bacteria colonies.... time to rebuild

John Martin - 7 years ago

I use a old toothbrush to twist that hair algae up like spaghetti!

Lisa S - 7 years ago

Needs more super fast growing plants and some floating plants that will help to compete against the algae. Also some good algae eaters would help.

David Lazzaro - 7 years ago

Are you the sham wow guy?

Dustin's Fish Tanks - 7 years ago

soon I will be the Sham wow guy

PB Fishing - 7 years ago

It actually kinda looks cool just clean the glass
