George Farmer livestream

Post by DonkeyFish »

Hey all! This Saturday we’ll have George Farmer presenting on long-term maintenance, but the second half will be a Q&A session. Post up whatever questions you might have here so we can have it all compiled for him to breeze through! Questions do not have to relate to the topic, so fire away!

Why are some types of plants avoided in your aquascapes? Are they unavailable? E.g., aponogeton, Madagascar lace plants, variegated plants/white plants (anubias pinto, Snow White, nana white).

What are some examples of plants that are difficult to maintain for long term and why?

Can additional filtration replace aquascaping with large water changes?

What are some of your favorite tools you like to use for cleaning (the glass and substrate) and trimming your tanks?

Might be late but I just thought of it!

How has YouTube changed your aquascaping journey?

We hear how YouTube isn't easy and he's really been a break out aquascaper on the platform. Figure there are some interesting stories and feelings that can be shared :D
Best, Corey

As I'm watching the stream, what are some of George's fish to use in an aquascape and animals as "clean up crew"?

He uses Amano shrimp and otos. He had nerites in the discus tank but took them out as he got annoyed by the eggs on the glass.
