Endlich ist das Video da. Ich hoffe wir haben nichts vergessen. Am Ton müssen wir noch arbeiten... und auch ein paar andere Haker sind noch drin. Aber mit jedem Male werden wir besser.
Konstruktive Kritik ist sehr willkommen. Wir hoffen dass wir ein paar Inspirationen geben können

english translation of the video itself:
Hello my Leechloving friends and favorite viewers. In this movie-„masterpiece“ we’d like to give you a short crashcourse about leechkeeping.
if you’ve got your leech from a pharmacy, its probable a hirudo verbana - a hungarian leech. this video is not only for hirudo verbana but also for hirudo orientalis and medicinalis and others. Please keep leeches always as small group of at least 3 animals. One liter water for one leech is a good rule of thumb. but now have fun with the crashcourse.
what do you need?
its quite easy:
- you need a tank
- sand
- stones, stones are very important. not only the small ones, also the big ones to make it easier for the leeches to shedd.
- (a red cat - nooooo they discolor everything! take it away)
- but we need a lot of optinal equippment like a lamp, oxygen stones and filter
- also a coverage and the most important thing
- leeches!
its easy again. Just insert the sand, than stones. as rough stones take lavastone, colorstones or dragonstones. the leeches will love to use them for shedding. flat and washed stones from rivers are perfect for the leeches to place their suckers on. that wont work on sand but they love digging.
then its time for water. i take tap water. the quality is written on the homepage of your watersupplier (at least in germany) - but you can also take water from aldi (its called silent water „Quellbrunn“ Noé
Quelle). i put in the (leech secured) filter. i talked in an other video about how to make your filter leechsafe. also an oxygen stone is put in but its not necessary. all the tech isnt necessary for a leech tank.
„you could have given em a bigger plant“
right! leeches love when the plants are big and the water is shadowy. In addition they love spending time in wet moss, especially to lay cocoons but i will talk more about later.
you really need to check twice if every gap is closed. leeches are masters in escaping. you wont be happy for long with your new petworms if you are not assiduous enough.
for small holes i am using modelling rubber. its easy and the leeches are not able to push it away.
now everything set to „on“ and here we go! the leeches are atrackted by the filter because of the vibrations.
you dont need any starter bacterias or run-in period. also a waterchange isnt necessary that often. only if its too dirty you need to change it - otherwise a partially change could be made every few weeks.
beside catappaleaf (seealmond leafes) is alden cones perfect for a leechfriendly climate in your tank.
here you can see a leech building a cocoon in wet moos. please handle this with caution. a leech will get a lot of babys and it is not allowed to release them in our nature because they were not native to our environment. skipped leeches harm our nature and if the goverment will notice it, they will be killed.
outro:
