    Information about the scape:
    As a fan of Nature Aquarium style, I made this aquascape layout where a wide range of aquatic plants, driftwoods and rocks are combined to create a harmony habitat for living creatures inside the aquarium. There are about 40 types of aquatic plants growing healthily in “The Valley of Harmony”, creating a colourful and dynamic scenery of an underwater world. Stem plants in the layout create lively feeling whereas mosses on driftwoods and rocks reflect a “wabi-sabi” sense of time’s passage. All plants are flourishing to bring out the harmonious colour scheme thus the tranquillity and peace for this aquascape.
    Fish love to rest under the lush green canopy of Micranthemum ‘Monte Carlo’. Shrimps enjoy hanging out on the thick moss patches on the driftwoods and rocks along the sand ground. And the small pathway leads them to the unknown mysterious place behind. All of the aquarium’s “residents” including all small snails are well taken care of in this aquarium as Amano-san had once mentioned “To know Mother Nature is to love her smallest creations”.

    • @LitiAquaria
      @LitiAquaria  Před 3 lety +2

      Thanks buddy. :) Similar to moss, Monte Carlo can be attached to driftwood by glue or you can use cotton thread to tie it there. Overtime, it will spread and attached to driftwood / stones. However, please take note to keep trimming it in good shape since it might float once the patch is getting thicker. :D

    Wonderful Aquascape. Very Beautiful! What is the very first Material you put into the Aquarium? Is that some kind of Filter Medium that normally would be placed inside of a Canister Filter? And can you tell me the Brand? What are the benefits of putting it under the soil?

    • @LitiAquaria
      @LitiAquaria  Před 9 měsíci

      Hi buddy, thanks for your compliment. Yes, that's just normal bio media filter that I placed at the tank bottom. No need to have specific brand, you can even place crush lava rocks there instead, no issue. The reason is, those material got lots of porous that keep the substrate prevent aenarobic stage and also be "home" for beneficial bacteria, which is essential for any aquarium :)
