Interested in a t-shirt? Let me know here in the comments. Also, if you want to skip the t-shirt pitch, fast forward to 2:57, where I start talking about air pumps.
Yes – XXL
What are the noise levels like on your pump bro? I’m thinking about investing in one.
I have a 14 gallon tank with tetras a d Cory’s in it plus 3 snails. I am also cycling a 3.5 gallon tank cycling ready for a betta, I’ve watched programs about the Amazon and the water there is very stagnant I believe. I am also lec to believe bettas don’t like fast flowing water so I’m assuming for both my aquariums I don’t need to worry to much about an airstone? However for all of you who use one I do think it makes your tanks look very beautiful.
Absolutely want a t-shirt. Like the dark colored as it stays cleaner
Yes I would like to getting a t-shirt
I want to buy a t shirt
Yayy, finally I get a tee-shirt from one of my favorite you -tube professional instructor about my hobby. Please let me know how to receive one at (mygab0063@gmail.com).
Yes please! I’m in the US and would love to buy a Tazawa Tanks tee 🙂
Yes,yes,yes, t shirt ….pleeeaaaassse;)
Is the t-shirt screen pressed?
Hello . I love sponge filters they are the best most simple filter around. I never have problems with ammonia since using these. Never been a fan of canisters. HOB filter are ok but sponges rule all . Work great easy to maintain and last forever. My only question is ya how you were talking about wTer pockets in tank. Do you think they do enough water movement so you don’t have water pockets?
yes to the shirt!
U talk about ur shirt for 1/3 of the video -.-
Yes I would buy a shirt
Trying to buy a good air pump in the UK is nearly impossible, I just put my fx4 outlet nozzles to the surface of the water works very well.
yeah i travel with them all the time,
Awesome video, very informative!
Shirts would be awesome
I would rock a shirt
great stuff
My understanding is that air pumps do not increase the oxygen in a tank, it is said that it does let the water ‘gas off’ by interrupting the surface.
I only use air and a large sponge when I’m trying to cycle a tank, it seems to cycle faster than just the canister alone?
The glass lids are always harder to clean when I have air burst at the surface, it creates more of that stuff you have to scrape off with a razor blade.
I keep Discus and Flowerhorns…
I would love one but I am in the EU, so hopefully in the future
yes I would like to buy a t shirt I I’m in Canada
Yes on t-shirt xl. 🙂
I used sponge filters and a hang filter on my tanks….also always used a air filter for connecting diffusers and air stones to help promote oxygen and to move heat around tank.
Hey Zenzo, I enjoyed this video; it was very informative. I see newer hobbyists ask all the time on our group page, as well as a others. I am not currently using any air pumps on my two tanks, but I am certainly not opposed to using them. I have a sump with an additional canister filter that I feel is more than adequate at this time. I just prefer to obtain surface agitation through those means. Thanks for sharing your knowledge on this video.
