- 3rd part of the Contest Calendar series, casual check-ins to talk about the project management behind a contest tank, the different stages to be reached: Design, Hardscape Start, Hardscape Completion, Planting, Fill-- the timing, the reasoning behind the timing, managing workstreams that come together for the final photo.
Follow the series, ask questions in chat about your own Road to the 2024 Contests, and I'll feedback my thoughts about your final photos! - Jak na to + styl

Hope this guy get more support from aquascaping community I learned a lot from this amazing guy
Babe wake up, Steven Chong just posted
Nah, I just posted now!
Was wondering when we would get an update! This stuff if interesting!
Hey Steven, you mentioned your tank is swamp with algae and it seems you are not concerned at all. How do you deal with it come photo shoot time?
Get through it to where there is minimum/no algae through tank maturity/condition
@@SteveScapesYT but how do you deal with algae from leaves? Manual removal? Or just let the plant over grown the algae and just regular water changes? Btw looking forward to your entries this year. Hope you keep doing videos like this.
Actually is the other way around: the one in the left is prime pro ex and the one in the right is prime pro.
But I'm still following you :))
Thanks Adrian! >.< Don’t tell Andy 😆
Wow! Great to see....sorry, hear your progress so far. Always seems to me that its cutting timescale very fine for IAPLC...end May deadline.
So many strong lights, for 8 hours. I would end up with more algae that plants😂. Obvously it works🤔
I’m not worried about completing the first tank- should be easy enough but the second- we’ll see xD
It may be different if you live on Long Island, but the water in Manhattan tends to be very soft off the tap. I usually get around 50 ppm. It can go up to 100ppm depending on the season. Beware that you may get some levels of phosphorus in the water at time which can trigger bad algae
Thank you!! I’m in Westchester
Let’s go 28 mins of Stevescapes
Thank you for watching!
Do we compulsory needs to clean green spot algae from the wood. If don’t , Do we have any disadvantages in the iaplc.
Definitely not- sometimes it’s even quite nice
Another question…can you enter a scape that’s over say a year old or so if it’s never been seen rather then building a new scape in such a short time ?
Depends on the contest, but if the picture has been taken within a year it doesn’t matter when the scape was started!
No US Distributor for Life Aqua :(
i hope someone will answer me.....
i'm newbie here in aquascaping, and i would like to try to participate in iaplc,.. is there a fee or a membership fee in iaplc..? and it is ok to set up a tank now then after 1 or 2yrs i will enter that tank..
thanks....
Some years there have been entrance fees- I believe not recently. Check the website for details. For IAPLC the photo should be taken a year within submission
@@SteveScapesYT thank you... btw i love how you judge in aquascaping contest.. you have brain ❤️
First comment ! Congrats
Thanks!
bro u asking someone to sponsor an ro unit.. it won't even cost much to build one yourself.. 😂 trust my buy a booster pump.. and a ro diaphragm and sediment and charcoal filter fit them together and you have a ro unit that can give u around 500lts in a day.. super easy super cheap to make.. 😊 I made my own unit and i get tds like around 10-15 from 350 tap water
Nice-- will have to look into it. Off the shelf products are usually like 2-5 hundred right? But now that you mention it this is something there's a lot of vids out on (totally forgot).
@@SteveScapesYT 2-500?? it won't even cost you like 30-40$
