Aquascaping TUSKS update video | day 71

Hey guys and welcome to my channel!!! This is update video of my aquascape Tusks. The tank is not perfect but I hope you will like the video :)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This aquascape represents fossilized tusks of some prehistoric animal. The tusks are in a shallow river and stick out of the water,plants grow around the tusks and fish swim between them. How accurate this scene can be I’m not sure, but this is art and everything is allowed :) Are these mammoth or mastodon tusks or even woolly rhino horns??? I'll leave that to your imagination ;)
Anyway, I'm fascinated by prehistoric animals and that's why I decided to make one aquascape on that subject...
Thanks for watching and enjoy!!!

Beginning of time-lapse is funny...Doesn't matter how much you trim the steam plants...they just keep growing haha

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

That's right :D

[@pshp64]

Love the sense of humor. And of course the scape as well. That japonica bush could be a shrimp haven.

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

Thanks I appreciate it!!

[@Chameshi]

Love the detailed update and explanation! Also great commentary as usual 6:43 😂

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

Thank you! 😁

[@rainscapes8253]

Very informative. Beautiful scape my friend! 👍🏻

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

Thanks!!

[@pritamsarkar4882]

You are so much inspiring to me...I have been following you, learning from you since last April (no I'm not doing any April fool) and finally came up with an idea to open my own channel in my own language. Love from India big brother.

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

I'm glad my channel inspired you to start your own channel. Thank you so much for watching!!!

[@8bitkame]

It's a beautiful tank. I like petting plants too. I had problems with hair algae when I used wild rock and wood. The hair algae might originate from that wood. I don't know. I combated it by adding a ton of amano shrimp and scooping the algae out when I cleaned every week. It helped to keep it down.

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

Thanks!! I usually get hairy algae at the beginning of the setup and they are present for about 3 months. With regular mechanical removal and tank maintenance they later disappear. The tank is still young and not yet a stable system. It would be OK in a month or so.

[@tinyt6330]

Thank you so much for the info on the lights!!! Super helpful!

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

Glad it was helpful!

[@kamalchandar2402]

Im bit jealous on u and ur tank. Keep up the good work. Love from india.

[@ShawnHineidi]

I really like this tank and its minimalist style. You are not happy with it because you are a perfectionist and its understandable. maybe only change the lights and see what happens! Love the update video and the time lapse. Thanks for sharing bro!

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

Thanks man!! I appreciate it.

[@aquamind9996]

Even with these minor flaws in plant behavior, the tank is beautiful. Great aquascape!

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

Thanks!!

[@9446253035]

Great tank,Nice work 👍

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

Thank you! 👍

[@saleemkoli4901]

Nice plantion setups tanks....

[@Agnus78]

Good video and pretty tank. It made me rethink my LED lamps placement. See, Blyxa japonica is almost completely RED in my tank and stem plants tend to bend and put horizontally. I will try to move lamps higher and see what happens.

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

Thanks!! Yes, your lighting may be too strong, the plants turn red and bend towards the substrate.

[@thilinadammika508]

One of my favourite ❤❤ was waiting for the update

[@AvinashJ21]

So beautiful.. Valdamir!!

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

Thanks!!

[@MrAzrie]

Id plant some red plants and will be done with it. But hey to each its own. Love the crystal clear water. And a very spacious tank.

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

Thanks!!

[@kengbunsai5713]

I really love your design 💖

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

Thanks!!

[@BuckyDesign]

Keep it up master 💪

[@ZenonAqua]

Your aquarium is beautiful, good light is the basis it looked nice how high it was a pity that the plant did not like it

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

Thanks!!

[@ZenonAqua]

@@vladimirstojanovic3603 I have a question about algae on the leaves due to lack of light? and after adding the lights disappeared?

[@rustystork7477]

stunning hardscape!

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

Thank you!

[@ornamentalfish1]

Good luck 🐬🐬

[@zuhairlbnsaiyedmahi4984]

This is so cool

[@TheMozerfok]

Thanks for that glorious update mate! Weird your shrimps are not taking care of that string algae issue though.....

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

Thanks for watching! They probably eat some algae, but not all.

[@muratgokburun2580]

I like minimalism too, there won't be any big changes.

Thank you!

[@omiddoulat5115]

hey bro, just give more time, need more more time to all become perfect, all is perfect , so classic, red colors make you more happy

[@harshpeacer]

I'm surprised the SAE didn't eat your monte carlo too 'cause mine does 🤣

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

He didn't eat monte carlo, but he did eat hydrocotyle t. japan 🤣

[@gabrielbarile73]

Amazing, I guess you made sustancial water changes, with so little amount of plants the algae problem is at the edge I imagine!

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

Thanks!! Algae are still persistent in this tank.

[@SintoJoseph]

did you added the super 4 something like that before adding substrate for plants?

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

I'm not.

[@lukaszpawlaczyk5274]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@ongjingxiang2701]

your tank looks amazing, how many filters you're using to maintain the water flow?

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

Thanks!! Two canister filters (2000l/h and 900l/h)

[@andiknoorhuda5866]

lovely blyxa, how's fertz dosing routine?

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

20 ml of tropica fertilizer per week for now. 10 ml at the beginning of the week and 10 ml in the middle of the week.

[@ngocnguyenthi8194]

Wow. great. What is your tank size and what filter do you use for this tank? the water is very clear. very beautiful. thank you.

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

Thanks I appreciate it. All information and links are in the description below.

[@ngocnguyenthi8194]

Vladimir Stojanovic thank you pro

[@74100raf]

Thanks for the video! Any on how you clean your glassware?

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

Thanks for watching. You mean glass lily pipes? Yes I can do that.

[@74100raf]

@@vladimirstojanovic3603 yes the pipes. I struggle with mine as the brush never reach the end of the pipe

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

I know that feeling.

[@wongsiufu3]

好𨶙正～～

[@kara2020]

I think problem with algae is because sand you use levels up carbonate hardness;) And of course lightning hours meters. 7-8 is enough

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

Thanks!! But KH in this tank is 3dKH, The lights on all my aquariums are on for 6 hours a day. This tank is definitely a mystery to me :)

[@grav3ns3n]

Great tank and info but did you get rid of the hair algae?

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

Thanks!! Not yet. This video was shot 4 days ago.

[@zulittle]

@@vladimirstojanovic3603 how do you plan to get rid of it? i have the same problem 😓

[@bednartvakwarystyka]

like friend:)

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

Thanks!!

[@simoneventura2932]

To me you should take off all rasboras and change to other 15-25 neons tetra. I think that a bigger school of them should be so much better and their color all togheter should match up really well with all the green of plants and the white sand, while orange/brown of rasboras isn t so much appropriate with other color

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

Yes, I've been thinking about it.

[@orc79]

Thanks!!

[@jaimanjaelani5679]

You are not crazy, sometimes i pet my moss and ask them if it feels good. Its normal, right?

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

Definitely normal...

[@vijaysaradhi0911]

Not happy? Not happy at all????
Buddy this scape is awesome.. something new.. really underrated! I would like to change few plants in the tank.. ammania sp, rotala.. that's it!

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

Thanks!! I appreciate it. I'll probably change something.

Yes.

Where I can buy German aquarium stuff in USA?

[@kengbunsai5713]

One more question, should I use filter build in with UV sterilizer?

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

You can if you want, I don't use UV at the moment.

[@kengbunsai5713]

Sir, it's true that people say UV is not good for planted. The plans will grow not well?

[@nicholas9395]

How is your blyxa growing better then mine 😯

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

I don't know, the last time I had blyxa it died in 3 days. It does not like uncycled aquarium and ammonia.

[@Mylifee001]

First view

[@leonguyen7005]

I have a question: how do you use Co2 efectively? Thank you a lot

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

CO2 starts 3 hours before the lights are turned on. It goes out an hour before the lights go out. That's what you meant?

[@leonguyen7005]

Vladimir Stojanovic yes thank. And did you use c02 diffuser or mix it into filter and come out of the oulet of filter?

What tank & stand is that? Aio?

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

The tank and cabinet are custom made.

[@betterthantelevision]

The Monte Carlo looks a bit out of place, really. Maybe sub out some sort of moss, something that would accentuate the shape of the 'tusks'. I still love this tank as is, but I bet with a few tweaks and additions it could be even better.

[@vladimirstojanovic3603]

Yes you're right, I'll probably replace MC with weeping moss.
