Hello there, welcome back. Today I'm down at Dramatic Aquatics and they are now open. You may have seen this shop in a previous video that I did. I think I did that one maybe it's two or three weeks ago when they were still setting up. It's now almost fully set up in that they've got all the systems running all the stock is in but the fish are not in yet. Not in all the tanks anyway. They are in a few of the tanks. They're just waiting for the water to warm up for a tumultuous and then they're going to start stocking the rest of the tanks with the fish. But so far it's looking very very good. Just behind me here we've got a huge octagonal plant tank. And in one of Andy's videos you can actually see this thing being made. It was quite an achievement actually getting this thing book and run. But now it's full of plants which are ready for sale. There you go, check that out. Each section flows into the other section. They're all full of very good quality plants by the looks of it. That's looking into the middle of the plant tank where they've got some really wild killer change in bubbles. That gives a really nice effect. And they've also got a few very nice plants that I've planted on the ball wood. This is from a Dutch company. They're quite impressive. There's a few of the bread and butter sort of fish. They're common types of fish. You've already gone in and they look nice and happy. Water's obviously good for them which it should be because they've got gigantic sumps surface in these systems. And if you're looking straight onto that bio war but look like a huge eye. That's one of the 105 bio-obts. Oh just look at that effect. It's like a huge marble. That looks awesome. See from the size of my hand compared to that orb at a real monster. It's got everything you need in the way of ornaments and food as well on the various shelves around the shop. And also underneath some of the tanks as well. And there's some really nice lums of bog wood. Look at that. You just imagine that planted with some Java fern. Very nice. Now this monstrous tank that's right in the middle of the shop is actually 700 UK gallons. Which when you take a sump into account as well is approximately 3.5 thousand litres. And that creates to about a thousand US gallons. That's bigger than most people's ponds. Still a little bit cloudy because it's got a sand basin. When you put sand in a tank it generally throws up. A lot of very fine dirt. But that is settling out. Don't you put the sand in two days ago. So we'll settle out. When it does settle out that's going to look absolutely magnificent with all the big fish in. Now as I mentioned before most of the tanks haven't got fish in. Although there is a few that will grow fish in there. And I'm just going to show us one of the sumps. This is the bank that's going to have the discus in. Okay so the water enters from the right. And it goes through all those ponds. Then passes into a moving bed filter which is just starting to move now. That's a Helix filter media. It then goes into AlphaGrog and it then goes into some bio-home maxi-built emit. We've got a spare compartment next to it. In case any more media needs to be added. And then in the end one we've got the pump. Just in a water change so the water is a little bit low in there. And this is the sump below where the hard water sicklets are going to grow. So that's the Malawi's and Tanganykins. Drops through the ponds, through the grog. Into a moving bed which isn't moving just yet. Now we've got the air pump in. And then it goes through some pumice. And this is 30 to 50 mil pumice. Unfortunately quite a lot of it's still floating. Now weird does that look. You've got the stuff that's sunk on the bottom and then you've got float and rock on the top. Look at that wheel sink in time. And they haven't quite finished putting the rest of the stuff in the sump. But you're going to have plenty of filtration in there. Now the reason they've put the pumice in this particular system is because it has a specific page of about 8.0. It's also highly mineralized as well. And as the water flows over it and through it, it helps to mineralize the water. And it buffers the page up to where there was particular sicklets like it. Not many people use that particular media for African sicklets. And I don't know why because it does do a really really good job. I'll make a video in the future specifically about the different sorts of pumice and explain that more. But it is a very very good one for hard water sicklets. Now just a quick note on the magnificent artwork that surrounds this shop. Look at that. The whole of the top of the polytonal has got an extra stain on. And it's been painted. Sharks. Oh man. Man, areas and all sorts of dolphins and everything. And if you notice all those little fish up there being chased by that shark on a night they actually disappear. Because they're painted on the outside of that skin. It's like a correct board which is not see through but it is translucent. So when it's dark outside and when the lights are on inside, more fish appear. And some of the other ones disappear so you get different effects from day to night. And if you want to check out the guys that did this, I'll put the link to their channel in the video description as well. So there you go. That's where the shops are at the moment. It is open but it's not fully fully set up but it is looking very very good. When this gets full of those big fish it's going to look absolutely awesome when people walk in and see what's in here. If you want to be kept up to date with how the shops progress and what stocks go on in and out. Please check out Andy's channel which is Dramatic Equatics. The link is in the video description and if you've got any questions to ask about what is going to be stocked and whether that can get certain things in. Please ask Andy because as I said at the beginning of this video I don't have anything to do with the shop. I'm literally just coming down to show you guys. Thanks very much for watching. I'll see you next time.
