Thank you for your advice. Your tank here with the music is 1 of the most elegant ones I ever saw. The 39W tube T5HO is actually 34 inches long, so it is almost double the length of my tank. Too bad I cannot utilize it completely.
Aquatic Story Pte Ltd
Aquatic Story Pte Ltd - 11 years ago
39W is very good for your tank size. Light is strong, so you need to balance up the CO2 and nutrients as well.
sunchaser w
sunchaser w - 11 years ago
if my little tank holds about 26L water and if I use a tube T5HO 39Watts, and in that I would like to plant japanese hairgrass, do u think the luminosity is good enough? This tank only measured 26x40x30cm.

thanks for the awesome information :), i'll go with the plastic divider for the current tank, will be a bit messy but still better than replant everything :P
theBioHouse
theBioHouse - 11 years ago
With hairgrass, it's difficult to keep it from the sand because it shoots new grass (rhizome) under the gravel. You'll have to very carefully pull the rhizome out without disturbing the soil. Another option is to add a plastic divider inside the substrate between sand and soil to prevent the rhizome from crawling. But not sure if that will work efficiently. Tenellus works because they grow rhizomes on top of the substrate and you could cut it out. Hemianthus callitrichoides works too. Good luck

Thanks for the help anyway! I subbed and liked. I might use sand still for decoration. But I am not sure I need them with ADA soil on top of SeaChem substrate. And the plants look great. I haven't decided yet the plant layout, so it helped a lot! It gives me ideas!
007gametester
007gametester - 11 years ago
And I ordered an aquarium fan. Also I use a certified custom built reef tank. Designed for extreme live stone and corall weights. It is perfect for my freshwater plans. I hope I wrote everything XD
007gametester
007gametester - 11 years ago
Also, a year from now (after I have money saved up XD) I will get 2 Kessil Amazon Suns 150W, and 1 Kessil Blue 150W as an extra. I will still keep this light. With fixtures all three will cost me $1000, but that is for the future. The Sunstrips were well recommended in Age of Aquariums and Strictly fish in Long Beach CA, and on 2 aquascape shows.
007gametester
007gametester - 11 years ago
After dozens of hours of research I decided to use layered substrate with SeaChem flourite standard, which has the most of most engredients, and it is the most balanced SeaChem. The other SeaChems are region and plant specialized (restricted), and I needed a multi-purpose substrate. While those will grow most things too, I went with the standard. The top layer will be 1.5" to 2" of ADA Soil Amazonia. So when the plants are bigger, they will have more minerals from the SeaChem. I love these two.
007gametester
007gametester - 11 years ago
Thabk you! I bought a nice "SeaStar Sunstrip 5K/14K freshwater" light, which I saw on several aqua scape shows here in LA, and big nape suppliers use it to grow and seed "multiply" plants. Also, it is good for color enhancing. For canister I will get the Fluval 206 for my 30gal long. I will get a CO2 system soon
Aquatic Story Pte Ltd
Aquatic Story Pte Ltd - 11 years ago
For this aquascape, nope. There's few possibility for not growing, i.e. eaten by fish/snails, not enough light/CO2 or high water temperature.
Aquatic Story Pte Ltd
Aquatic Story Pte Ltd - 11 years ago
You can use a mixture of aquarium soil and river sand. Helps the plants to root better. I would recommend these plants for you. Carpeting Plants: Glossostigma Elatinoides, Hairgrass, Japanese Hairgrass, Echinodorus Tenellus Foreground/Midground Plants: Staurogyne .sp, Japonica Blyxa, Downoi Tie to wood/rocks: Java Ferns, Moss Background: Cyperus Helferi and most cheap stem plants

It is the plants that released the oxygen bubbles, not airpump.
Aquatic Story Pte Ltd
Aquatic Story Pte Ltd - 11 years ago
We never vacuum our planted aquarium especially those with soil. First of all, you need a good filter system that can give you good mechanical and bio filtration. Once the aquarium is well cycled, the bacteria will break down ammonia to nitrite and then to nitrate. Nitrate is then taken up by the aquatic plants or from water change. Point to note, always keep the aquarium well balanced. I.e. Light, CO2, Nutrients and Temperature.

Paulito
Paulito - 11 years ago
I've been seeing a lot of planted aquariums lately and it makes me wonder, how do you clean it? Do the live plants clean the wastes and etc. by themselves? If not, wouldn't it be a hassle/harmful to have to use an aquarium vacuum to clean the bottom? I think this is a really beautiful aquarium and I want to make one similar to it, that's why I want to ask, I want to know what to expect before I blindly jump into using live plants.

Aquatic Story Pte Ltd

You can try weeping moss or christmass moss. They can also produce nice tree effect. It takes a couple of months for the moss to grow completely. Regular trimming is required in order to maintain its shape and prevent it from out growing.
Aquatic Story Pte Ltd
Aquatic Story Pte Ltd - 11 years ago
It is better for the hairgrass to root and creep with finer substrates like aquarium soil, garden soil or sand.

This tiny bubbles are actually oxygen bubbles released by the plants when they photosynthesis. You can get this effect if there is enough light and CO2 for the plants.

To have CO2 or not really depends on the type of aquatic plants you intend to keep. Hardier or less demanding plants like Java Ferns or Anubias Nana does not require CO2. There are 2 ways to inject CO2, one is to use a pressurized cylinder and proper accessories, the other method is DIY, i.e. using sugar & yeast. With regards to the light, we are using high output T5, 24W x 4 tube with 10,000K.

Aquatic Story Pte Ltd
Aquatic Story Pte Ltd - 11 years ago
Thanks! From our experience, most fish eat shrimps, even small tetras. But if you introduce the livestocks by order, such hunting behavior can be minimized. E.g. we introduce shrimps into our aquarium first for a few weeks before the fish. This way, the fish, as a "newcomer" will not disturb the original inhabitants. You can try this method. It works for us. :)
henry chandra
henry chandra - 11 years ago
Hi Aquaticstory, your tanks are always my favorites. One question, I see you mixed shrimp and tetras in every of your tanks. Don't you find that the fish eat the shrimp ? Can you suggest me fishes that don't disturb the shrimp ? because I see that all your shrimp live happily together with the fish

Thanks! Yes, our aquariums now are all freshwater. Here's to answer your questions: 1) The plastic sheets are used to prevent stirring up of the substrates when we pour in or fill up the tank with water. Different people use different methods. Some use newspaper. But we prefer using plastic sheets. :) 2) If your aquarium is a fully planted tank, there is no need to "clean" your tank so throughoutly like vaccuming the bottom etc. Just clean off any visible algae growing on glass and water change.

What you do is a live water art. I believe this is fresh water. If not PLZ let me know. I have watched your other vids and have a few questions and hope I don't sound too dumb. 1. Why do you put plastic down before your planting? Isn't it hard to clean or do yo have to with all the shrimp and cleaners with the fish? I will have more questions but don't want to over do it. And thankyou for sharing your beautiful work. I am in love wi this tank. Hope u put up more vids. Thank you

It was on together with the light. A timer was used to control the on/off of light + CO2 system. About 8 hours a day.

Aquatic Story Pte Ltd - 11 years ago
Thanks! You should always have the proper equipment when starting a planted aquarium. That is, filter system, light and preferably CO2 system. Start with easier plants like Anubias Nana, Java Ferns, Bolbitis or moss. Do more research on the aquatic plants to understand their charactistics and requirement before using them. :)

You can start putting in livestock by batches when ammonia is near or at 0ppm. Usually 2 to 4 weeks later. But do not put in too many at a time because they may generate waste faster than the bacteria can break down.

Thx! I guess the shrimps helped maintained the moss clean. They are always at the moss, picking on them, making the debris fall to the ground.

Hi your tanks look really clean and so is your moss. How do you keep your moss so clean? Mine always collect debris even though it is under a filter with great flow.
Aquatic Story Pte Ltd
Aquatic Story Pte Ltd - 11 years ago
Different plants have different requirements. So make sure you get everything right. For examples, amount of light, CO2, PH and water temperature. All these can affect the health of the plants.

Hi. Such aquascapes are not suitable for goldfish. They are be too big and will destroy the aquascape most of the time.

The entire process is about 4 months. Including the making of tree and the actual scaping. The 'tree' itself took about 3 month to grow. As for the grass, took probably 2 to 3 weeks to grow. I will test the water 2 to 3 times a week and remove any algae as and when required during the 1st 2 months of setup. After that, aquarium stabilizes and cleaning took place once a week.
DanielOnGuitar
DanielOnGuitar - 11 years ago
Wow, how much amount of time required a week to get the same result as this tank not including the path maintenance (I've been thinking of getting one myself).
Aquatic Story Pte Ltd
Aquatic Story Pte Ltd - 11 years ago
It is fine river sand. Mainly use for corydoras.
Aquatic Story Pte Ltd
Aquatic Story Pte Ltd - 11 years ago
Not really. This tank used to have algae too! At the initial stage, there Diatom and followed by Green Spot Algae (GSA). But later, was slowly removed. Different algae tells you a different imbalance you have in your aquarium. Take GSA for example, it is imbalance of NO3 and PO4. Essentially no PO4. So by increasing PO4 slowly, you can observed that GSA slowly disappearing.

Did you took this video before the algae took over your tank?? How did you balance the nutrients, light and CO2 to keep your tank so clean?

Willow moss and Christmas moss can be good for creating the tree. Personally I avoided Java moss because they usually grow stringy tips.
A Baker

The plants released the bubbles. It is produced when the plants photosynthesis when lights are on.

Most moss can do well. But try avoid stringy moss like flame moss. With regards to the path, it is very high maintenance, you need regular, cleaning and trimming away of creeping plants.

To do an aquascape with a path, you mus be prepared for lots of maintenance work. For a start let the plants grow completely to cover the ground,. Then do a force trimming to shape out a path. After that. you need to add in the sand of your choice to create the path. And finally, constant trimming of plants that creeps towards the path. Probably once every 2-3 days. Hope this helps. :)

Ya. It's hard to choose a compatible fish for the aquascape. I thought the yellow of furcata is enough to brighten up the entire aquascape but it is still not sufficient. Using ember tetra tetra may give a different result because of its red.

my favorite tank of your channel so far :) just think choice of fish could be ember tetra but :)
Aquatic Story Pte Ltd
Aquatic Story Pte Ltd - 12 years ago
Haha.. agree! We need to constantly pick up 'wild' moss growing among the grasses. The path is also very high maintenance, need to constantly remove the tenellus and hairgrass creeping over it.
Aquatic Story Pte Ltd
Aquatic Story Pte Ltd - 12 years ago
Hair algae is an indication of imbalance. Check for the water parameter and make sure light, CO2 and nutrients is well balanced. Your effort will be greatly rewarded by the splendid aquascape in the end of the day.

very very nice, great vid also. I have a simular setup and the only problem i have is , my moss gets into my hairgrass, oh well, picking it out and making it look pretty is part of the hobby. Good job.
