Dutch 4ever - 7 years ago

fantastic looking tank buddy! planing for a planted discus tank myself and was wondering about the combination of Amazonia Soil and Discus fish? How do you keep it clean with all the ammonia leaching from the soil?

Rob's Aquariums - 7 years ago

Dutch 4ever thank you. Unfortunately with Amazonia soil all you can do is wait. Water changes and patience. Mine took 6 weeks before the ammonia levels dropped where I could safely add fish:

Its okay..Any decoration placed in the middle of the tank like the wood here, Takes away the depth effect.Theres a proper way to do this.The tank isnt spectacular i.m.o .Theres no nice background and no place for the discus to hide ..Its just okay..

Island Mike hahaha yeah you did you little shit! Well I’m in Sydney Australia, so Bondi beach this Saturday at 3pm you little cunt. Make sure you’re there! We’ll see who’s a little pussy! You can have a holiday to Australia and a face bashing in your he process, I’ll be the dude dressed in all red so you don’t have trouble finding me in the crowd. And red is what your face is going to look like after I’m done with you. Pathetic little twat!

PickleRick No i didnt. dont play those kind of games, You've just exposed how your infantile little mind works though, You brown nosed faggot...Now ..I asked you a question..Where, When and What time motherfucker?

PickleRick - 7 years ago

neverdown222 hahaha! Island Mike is that you?? Of course it is I can tell by the same poor grammar and bad sentence structure. You’ve just proven how pathetic you are! You went and set up another account to support your own shitty little opinion. Man you’re pathetic.

neverdown222 - 7 years ago

Island Mike is a caring person with a big heart who is concerned with the well being of the discus, he doesn’t believe there is enough or any hiding places for the discus...he doesn’t deserve to be treated like a punching bag.

Island Mike - 7 years ago

PickleRick Anytime ..Just leave an adress..Real talk.

neverdown222 - 7 years ago

I agree with Islandmike’s honest observation of the plant and hardscape placement in this aquarium. He speaks harshly but truly about the tank being okay and not spectacular. I think the tanks is beautiful and does a great job of capturing an average scene of nature underwater. My tank is below average and I would love to learn how to someday build a spectacular take through trial and error and learning. Cheers

Rob's Aquariums hahaha! I just fucking hate keyboard warriors who think they can say whatever they won’t cos no one knows who they are. I’d like to see him say that shit to my face. The nurses at the hospital would be fucking critiquing his face after I’d smash it to shit!

PickleRick - 7 years ago

Island Mike did I trigger you??? HahahahahahHahHh! What a little tosser!

Island Mike - 7 years ago

PickleRick Go fuck your inbred mother and keep your puffed up internet persona to yourself.This is social media and I comment what rhe fuck i want.

Rob's Aquariums - 7 years ago

Island Mike clearly you’re too smart for any of us here so yeah.

Island Mike - 7 years ago

Rob's Aquariums You ignore the basics of aquascaping and when one comments on this you jump all over me like theres no tommorow . So your claim that you dont care what anybody thinks is hereby dismissed.Learn to take critique, Its what makes you grow and dont let that ego stand in your way.Btw to that foulmouthed dickriding honkee, Get your tongue out of his crack already..Its brown af lmao..When one resorts to cussing it shows one thing alone; Little intelligence and no argument.Hop along now.

Rob's Aquariums - 7 years ago

PickleRick thanks man appreciate it!

Rob's Aquariums - 7 years ago

Island Mike no you didn’t trigger me. I’m just saying I put my video on YouTube cos I want to, and I don’t really care what anyone thinks of my tanks. If you don’t like it that’s fine. But I was brought up with the saying “if you don’t have anything nice to say then don’t” but hell each to their own right? But yeah Pickle rick is right. I don’t really see what you have done that is any better. So when you do let me know and I’ll be sure to give your tank feedback.

PickleRick - 7 years ago

Island Mike spoken like a true cunt!

Island Mike - 7 years ago

Rob's Aquariums Did I trigger you? If you put your tank on Y.T you can expect critique.Its how handle it..Did you expect everybody to go " Ooohh its so beautiful.." ? Your infantile "rebuttal" says it all. "Why try and turn this around? I didnt put my tank on Y.T..You did..lol . If you really made this tank for your own enjoyment, Why put it out there?

Rob's Aquariums - 7 years ago

Island Mike ,thanks for your input even tho it’s not really wanted.But this is what I invisioned in my mind and that’s what I did. I like it so that’s all that really matters I’m not making tanks to please anybody. I do it cos I enjoy it, and like the previous comment, you can show us what you did with your tank so we can all critique it.

PickleRick - 7 years ago

Island Mike another dickhead trying to be smart without doing anything better himself. Stop being a cunt. At least he’s creating something and what are you doing?? And if you were as smart as you’re pretending to be you’d know that this is an old video and he has newer ones up that show the tank fully grown in.Piss off wanker!

Love the tank. Very beautiful. How is it going with the discus? I have been thinking about getting a few.

Rob's Aquariums - 8 years ago

Darrin Campbell Thank you kindly. The tank is going good and most of the discus are fine. I did lose a few along the way but I think I have most issues sorted now which means that I have started re stocking. I will however, never buy juveniles again as they are harder to care for in such a large tank and require more feedings which in turn disrupts the water quality.

Rahne Aeon - 8 years ago

wow that's a step up from the fluval edge! Beautiful set up.

Beautiful setup. Do the angel fish ever pick on the discus?

Rob's Aquariums - 8 years ago

I had the Angels in there for about three months but I moved them, as I wanted to make room for more discus. But in that time I didn't see any aggression.

Rob you have a gorgeous tank my friend. You make it look easy.

Rob's Aquariums - 8 years ago

+pittbully13 Your tank looks awesome as well!!

pittbully13 - 8 years ago

Yeah that right one step at a time. Come over and check out my baby 29g. Subbed

Rob's Aquariums - 8 years ago

+pittbully13 Thank you kindly. To be quite honest with you, it is quite easy. the key is patience. do it slowly and play with it everyday till you are happy with it. Trust me it didn't look like that when it first started. took at least two months of fiddling with it until i was fully satisfied.
