    Didn't watch the video, but if it's the sand waterfall, keep it well away from your filter inlets

    Good advice there @Jwh. Have seen this video before and it's sand with an air pump, pumping the sand upwards through a pipe. Quite innovative though - wanted to do something similar but too much work to create a backdrop to keep the sand circulating so I gave up that idea.

    Lol.The video with the cloudy water was just a DIY to give you the info you need to make it.
    You need to adjust the airflow to control the outcome.

    Yeah I bet you the guy who created this tank put a LOT of effort into that tank... Specially that backdrop.
