Edgars Fish Channel

If you love planted aquariums, guppy fish, corydoras catfish, kuhli loaches, aquatic insects, crustaceans, freshwater shrimp, and self-sustaining ecosystems, you’re in the right place. With over 15 years of fishkeeping experience, I share tutorials, builds, and real-world experiments that bring nature indoors.
On this channel, you’ll find:

✔️ Step-by-step ecosystem tank setups (Walstad method & beyond)
✔️ Aquascaping tutorials – hardscapes, substrates, plants, natural filtration
✔️ Species introductions – shrimp, guppies, snails & scuds
✔️ Exploring local rivers & ponds for wild life
✔️ Vallisnerias, Cryptocorynes, Amazon Frogbit, Limnophilia and many more Platns

From a 100-species aquarium project to miniature glass bowl worlds, every video is about creating balance, biodiversity, and beauty under water.

🌍 Whether you’re a beginner or experienced aquarist, you’ll learn how to build thriving, self-sustaining aquariums that mimic nature.

A long-time follower of my channel recently posted this short video. An albino Corydoras fry. I've never seen one myself and didn't want to keep it from you. Check out ‪@mrwatsonaquatic‬, he has some cool fish. 🐠

What a difference a year makes! 📈🐟

I was just looking at my whiteboard and realized how far we’ve come.

Back in November 2024, I had 35 subscribers (remnants from a single video I posted in 2023 and then left alone). That’s when I decided to take this channel seriously. Fast forward 13 months, and Edgar’s Fish Channel has grown to over 3,700 subscribers and hit over 1.2 million views! I am so incredibly grateful to every single one of you who watched, commented, and shared.

What’s coming in 2026? I’m setting the bar high. My goal is to bring you:

🎥 1 Long-form video every week

📱 2 Shorts every week

🎙️ 1 Weekly Livestream

Expect a lot of new scapes featuring not just fish, but aquatic insects, land insects, crustaceans, local German species, and a massive variety of plants AND also more trips to German nature and maybe some fish /animal room tours.

Right now: I’m editing a massive Fish Room Tour video showing the best highlights and stories from 2025. Stay tuned!

A huge thank you to everyone for the support, and a special shoutout to my channel members: ‪@belgiumbugs‬ ‪@jvp714‬ ‪@juliuspaul3755‬ and ‪@LordvonDotterhausen‬. Your monthly support helps keep the tanks running and paying for all the software required to edit videos!

Happy New Year, everyone! Let's make 2026 even "fishier." 🌿🐌

❓ And which of my ecosystems are they living in?
Drop your guesses in the comments — answers revealed in the video.
Stay tuned. 👀🌿
