I've been to this pets at home and went after I saw this video. It took me months to realise it was the same tank I'd seen aquascaped in this video

If it's a 4m×1m×1.2m tank, then it's a 4800 liter one, not a 9000 liter one! On the other hand, if it's a 4.5m×1.5m×1.5m tank, then it's a 10125 liter one, not a 6500 liter one!

Yes, I believe that the indicated mesures are erroneous and I don't have the correct ones since it's located in the UK!
Anyway, it's a large tank and we believe it's still quite interesting to see how you do this kind of project. I have removed the volume from the text below the video now, but can't remove the one in the video. I hope for your understanding :-)!

Je pense que malheureusement les mensurations indiquées sur la vidéo ne sont pas exactes (il n'y a qu'à voir que les personnes ne dépassent pas de beaucoup lorsqu'elles sont debout dedans).
Le calcul de la description ci dessus n'est pas non plus très certain...
Ce n'est pas terrible, mais la vidéo montre malgré ces imperfections tout de même un projet grande échelle qui peut intéresser le public; nous allons donc la laisser :-)

+Pavan Kumar Vallisneria is known to sometimes react negatively to addition of Glutaraldehyde (=liquid CO2) in a tank.

I believe it is spelled as 'Malaysia'. Nevertheless, such big tank I would definitely want to see it real life.

+lee guankiat You are absolutely right, it was misspelled - but unfortunately I'm unable to change that since we didn't keep the original video, sorry about that!

I guess the de-gassing is for anaerobic bacteria which converts nitrates to nitrogen gas. Could anyone please tell me how this degassing works and how much degassing could be done this way. thnx

I would love to see a follow up of this aquarium several months after planting to see how it has progressed.

I think if you google the shop you might be able to see a photo of the tank now

Yes, it would have been nice to follow the setup later on. We didn't have the opportunity to get a whole team of people to set the lights and make a new film in the store as we are located in Denmark. The store lamps made it quite difficult to get even good photos taken by the staff. You would have to go visit to see it ;-)

+Cesar martel suarez Here's our recommendations for substrate http://tropica.com/en/plant-care/substrate/. Tropica Plant Growth Substrate should only be used where you have plant roots in it, meaning if you have decoration material such as rocks and wood pieces, no need to put substrate underneath.
If you meant Tropica Aquarium Soil, it's quite different since it is not supposed to be covered by gravel. Then you multiply your surface with 5-6 cm depth of soil to find the quantity 120x30x6/1000 = 21,6 L soil or soil powder.

Tropica Aquarium Plants - 8 years ago
+ManicMindTrick Really I have no idea! The tank was already in the store with the filtration and CO2 equipment. You would have to ask a tank manufactureras I guess they customize huge tanks, they won't have a standard answer. Regarding plants, you just have to look at our "normal size" layouts to see how many plants we use and then multiply the surface... ;-)
