How do you water aquatic plants? Do you add water to the tank every day or something like you do with land plants?

@Limpedalong but how do the plants get on the rock? do you buy them like that ? or does it magically grow on it lool?

@lopez5678 You have to trim it to keep it looking neat like that. Starts to grow long and a nice trim will make it nice and compact

i got a question about the tank at 1:12. the grass that is above the rock/cliffs, do you buy it like that? or do you have to somehow plant the grass on top of it to be make it look that neat?

2:48 is the most eyepleasing to me. I plan on making a close replica to that with a few modifications. I like the colors because it looks like scenery from one of my favorite movies. ^^

Anybody has any idea as to how they keep the creeping plants like hairgrass or HC from growing onto the white gravel/sand they have in some of the tanks. I'm thinking of re-scaping my tank soon and i wanna re-create those white sand pathways that they do so nicely in some of the set-ups. Thanks in advance =)

i believe the red plant at 1:11 is Ludwigia arcuata which can grow red under high lighting or the right strain. another similar plant is rotala macaranda "red". thanks

0:39 is a biotype where it tries to replica a natural environment, i wouldnt have added it but the person who entered, entered in the wrong section lol
