Why Does My Aquarium TDS Keep Increasing?!

Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) confuse almost every aquarist… especially in natural, Father Fish-style, deep-substrate, or leaf-litter aquariums.
In this video, I share the results of my TDS experiment using multiple leaf types, explain what rising TDS really means, when it becomes dangerous, and how to fix TDS issues without chemicals or expensive equipment.

📊 What you’ll learn:
• What raises TDS
