What fish tank equipment can YOU NOT live without? https://youtu.be/Ny7eGmTem60 Aquarium Tips and Tricks, The Plan, the Flow, the Feel https://youtu.be/Zr9LHDPYS5g UV Sterilizers: My Take on UV Sterilizers in the Planted Tank https://youtu.be/BLDFwgr08HU Fish Tank Equipment https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnw3D5LLGih0v5ThVFR0aPUuU3mha4qhL Aquarium Equipment, Good, Ghetto, and Classic Aquarium Equipment.Yo folks- I am excited today because this is something that has been kinda bothering me. - My whole thing is planted tanks made easy. I wanna talk about Good Equipment- Ghetto Equipment- Classics you can’t live without. I am really jacked about the podcasts I am about to be on I am hitting up NOT one but TWO PODCASTS in the next 48 hours. Awe yeah. The first is with Cleveland Boy Frank Reece—He’s the host of Blue Zoo Radio and was the Master of Ceremonies at the Aquatic Experience last year- Excited about that. (I know he has toured a member of the Cleveland Browns house and his tank- so that's a win for me) The other is fellow YOUTUBE John from KG Tropicals. Really jacked about the on as well- Fellow YouTuber taking on another platform – I commend him for that- YOU DON”T WANNA MISS THAT SHOW. It should be about an hour or more. From a high level- I am excited to be doing a podcast for the longer conversational style- Just getting a great conversation and seeing where it takes ya. (Straight up- I have though about doing one, but figured I’d see how these two go and have a PLAN before I jump into another avenue) The long form, talking, bsing fits my style for sure. Blue Zoo Airs tonight at 8pm KG tropical “Tank Talk” next week. MEGA Jacked. So I’ve been thinking about a bunch of this happening and I wanna talk about it. -Good Equipment, - Ghetto Equipment - Classic Equipment, And here is the biggest point of the whole video- JUST BECAUSE SOMETHING IS NEW- DOESN’T MAKE WHAT YOU HAVE OBSOLETE. Again- JUST BECAUSE SOMETHING NEW HIT THE MARKET- DOES MAKE WHAT YOU HAVE NOT WORK. I’ve got two prime Examples of this. 1. LIGHTS- This is a two bulb strip this is god knows how old- LOOK- Are there sleeker, brighter- more efficient ways to light a tank in 2014- ABSOLUTELY- But You can still grow the pissoutta some plants with a simple strip like this and a couple of new bulbs The other example it Metal Halides- Yeah- they aren’t he most efficient –and I actually like the fuller filled look of florescent more- but these lights are the - I’m not saying LED’s are all bad, but there are a ton of DOG pile out there, that I have had to redirect people from using- Shout outs to John and Justin who bought Done for your combos and had to switch up off of LEDS 2. FILTERS Look - The biggest thing you can do for your aquarium is to give that MO FO a nice water change and a scrubbing. Yeah you need a filter for sure. But Just because one can, “Tell you when it needs cleaned” Or “Check your rectal temperature” doesn’t mean you need it. - I’m running 10 year old fluval canister filters on these sucker and don’t intend on switching it up any time soon- IF IT AINT BROKE- Don’t FIX it. YES- Advances in technology are good- sure- we want things to get better-.but again- If it’s working for you – ITS WORKING! Yeah- Your lights might look Ghetto compared to the sex, sleek LED Or you are running old whisper over flows or even sponge filters. Which leads me to this question- What is your favorite- CLASSIC piece of aquarium equipment- DROP ME A COMMENT Make sure and check out both the Blue Zoo Radio and John with KG Tropicals Welcome to Dustin's Fish Tanks YouTube Channel.

Been watching your videos for a couple weeks now, thanks for posting. I just got back into tanks, my first planted tank, a 45 gallon and I bought a MarineLand LED strip. It's fancy technology lol (nighttime moon light is bad ass)...I supplement with Excel, and Iron, like the guy at the store says...but not getting the results I had hoped for. Maybe it's the light? Not that my plants are dying, they are just kinda yellowing and don't look strong. What are your thoughts on that light? Go easy on me, I dropped like $250 on it lol.
Thanks!

My new technology is BuildMyLED.
My old equipment is some air pump from like 10 years ago and still works.

Also, cut and fit a piece of filter floss between the sponge and biomedia for great water polishing.
I totally agree.
I still think the classic eheims are the best. And I am not about to replace my classics for modern eheims or any other brands.
The best eheim filters by far in my opinion.
Would never get a modern eheim over them.
The only good think about progress, is good bargains to the ones who are smart and don't get crazy about the next best thing out in the market.
I think things get improved to be made worse because in the old days, things were made to last a lifetime, today they are made to last until the next upgrade arrives.
And that works for everything not just fishkeeping.
Steel Blue Apisto?!-- great looking tanks bro- love the simple sag and val in the 75- Rotala colorata is tight too
