This style of tank is by far my favourite type! Wide range of colors and contrasts, different leaf texture, a little untamed like it would be out in nature, and more focus on the plants rather than the hardscape like a lot of the new style planted tanks today. I'd love to see more of these! :)

I am not able to believe that such a stunning scape can exist. I can only dream of such a tank. Thanks, Alex for bringing me such joy! Can you also shed some light on the substrate used, filters, fertilizers and the co2 levels? Also since Kris is such an experienced aquascaper it would be really nice if he can share some tips on growing moss.
@guitarfish
6 жыл бұрын
The substrate is ADA Amazonia. Filters are an Eheim 2216 and Fluval FX6, which is a lot of filtration for a 75G. For ferts, I use a dry mix, dosed 3X weekly of KNO3, KH2PO4, and K2SO4. For micros, I use a combination of Seachem Flourish (and Iron) and Brightwell Aquatic FlorinMulti. For CO2, I drop the pH about 1 degree, and adjust based on how the plants/fish look. Most mosses that are in the hobby are quite easy to grow -- the only thing to keep in mind is that mosses tend to do better in slightly cooler temperatures. Otherwise, trim them aggressively to shape them and force them to attach to your hardscape.
@heisenberg7086

Thank you so much Kris. I do see that a lot of times my moss seems to be covered in brown or green algae even though i have enough flow and filtration in the tank. Can you let me know what could cause this?
@guitarfish
6 жыл бұрын
Brown algae is usually indicative of a new tank setup, or excess silicates. Green algae is likely a nutrient imbalance. This can be caused by a number of reasons, from dosing unbalanced amounts of nutrients, to having too much (or too long) of lighting. I generally only light my tanks for 8 hours per day. I know what amounts of N/P/K are in my water supply, and supplement those. Unless you're starting with R/O water, don't assume that you're starting from zero when dosing. I max out my CO2 as much as the fish will allow, and use things like surface skimmers to help oxygen exchange, and keep the surface clear. Make sure you clean your filters at least monthly, and weekly water changes.

@@heisenberg7086 this will depend on your water supply. For me, I mix approximately 10-4-1 of kno3-kh2po4-k2so4. But again, depending on what you start with in your water, you would adjust those.

TDashJ_Aquariums Tyrone Jones Co2 is about 1 degree drop of pH. For dosing, I use dry ferts for macros, dosing 3x weekly. I use Flourish, flourish iron, and Brightwell Aquatics trace 2x weekly. The amounts are adjusted based on how the plants look. Usually more macros early in the week, tapering down, and then a weekly water change.

Ali rahi it's a standard 75g aqaurium. Roughly 48x18x18. In the US market, I've liked the Gen4 Ecotech Marine Radion lights for high output applications and color. You can also build your own lights, and there are new makers and models of lights coming out all the time, so it's hard for me to keep up with the latest "best" one.
