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!!!

Let's get this man 100k
OK 🙂
Hahahahahaha...
High sense of humor, even in a "bad situation"...
Learning more than aquascaping with you.
Thanks for share!
Thanks for watching :)
Even with algae this thank still looks amazing for me, im gonna copy this layout in the future, thanks man for the inspiration
Thanks for watching!!
I got an idea, what if u doing aquascape for predator?
Is betta fish a predator? I can do that :D
Absolutely stunning!!! Your videos are so clean, streamlined and helpful. Merry Christmas and all the best to you and your family!!! Thank you!!
Thanks! Merry Christmas.
So I guess when you reach 100k you are going all inside the aquarium haha? Another great video, i especially loved the editing in this episode 👍
No! I don't know what I'm going to do for 100K, but it's probably going to be something stupid :D And who even says I'll get to 100K :D :D
Thanks! And thanks for watching!!!!
Super film. Każdy ma glony, jedne widoczne inne mniej. Ważne to cierpliwość w ich zwalczaniu. Piękne akwarium.
Wielkie dzięki!!
Love the editing style bro. Amazing and super entertaining! I hope you will be able to overcome the algae soon. I think those lights might be too powerful for the amount of plants you have in the tank so I dont know if cutting down the ferts will help. You are the expert. I am interested to see where this gets in the next update. Million congrats on reaching 60k subs, you totally deserve it and keep up the awesome work my friend.
Thank you so much!! I appreciate it!! I will try, I will monitor the behavior of plants and monitor the behavior of algae. We'll see what happens. Maybe I underestimated the lighting a bit, now I raised it higher.
Congrats on 60K!! Looking forward to episode 4 :P
Thanks!!
Very beautiful aquascape also inspirational !!👍
Thanks!!
Green algae, some suggestions: floating plants; make sure the heating is set to 23 degrees centigrade; let fast growing stem plants grow across 50% of the surface for a time; add a tannin to the water; add an electrolysis system; try a shorter photoperiod, maybe only 6 hours for a while; have a mid-day lighting break; only use fast growing plants; check nitrate/phosphate levels and keep levels low, there are some very good filter resin scrubbers available, Rowa is excellent; add green algae eating fish; increase number of shrimps significantly. To be honest never had much luck reducing green algae with livestock though duration of lighting has often made a big difference for me. If the water starts to go green, a UV filter is your best friend. Water changes only help if the nitrate levels in the freshly added water are lower than those in the tank. Good video, nice tank, but beige sand would be too much work for me, substrate that matches the colour of fish poop is best, let the filter do the work...
Thanks!! I appreciate it.
Add Doctor chihiros electrolysis system from Ali express, its damn cheap and works well.
Add seach flourish Excel.
Add a UV filter again from Ali express.
Add 25-50 Amano , 5 siamese and 5 otto sinclis for the heavy duty cleaning.
You'll get the results you need.
@@preritsrivastava9438 It is an electrolysis device (which I mentioned) - electrolysis has in my experience a limited positive effect, particularly on a new set-up, on more mature tanks its effects are very difficult to assess. Proportionally I would tentatively suggest that Phosphate is your number one enemy for green algae followed quickly by long lighting periods and temperatures above 25 degrees centigrade. CO2 will of course make plants grow faster which will give algae of all types less opportunity. Good luck with the hobby.
1 of my favourite tank on youtube ! anyway love the positive vibe dance ... lol
Thanks!!!!! :)
Was waiting for an amano shrimp to swim up your nose 😂
Hahahah!!! That would be very interesting 😂
Omg this happened with one of my loaches, I was so scared I wouldn't be able to get him out. Luckily I did, and he is absolutely fine....a little bit more cautious of the hose now, but fine lol
Im enjoying this tank Vlad, even if your not!
Thanks for watching!!! In fact, I love this tank. If everything goes OK I will keep this setup for a long time :)
You fixed it! Woohoo!! Tank is gorgeous!
Thanks!!
The man can groove!!😄😄
Beautiful tank. More dancing.
Subbing! Love the channel found it by accident! That’s a good thing!
Thanks for joining !!
I know you know more about this Hoppy than me... But if you can get some sort of Molly they eat algae like popcorn 🍿
Also rummy nose tetras (well in my experience) eat anything that is green👍 but they might eat your plants as well so it's 50/50 if they would work
What a fun video. 😁
Hvala puno na podjeljenom iskustvu.👏
Nema na cemu. Hvala na gledanju!!!
Stunning aquascape, but please do something with these cabinet doors ;P
Hhaahha! The doors are fixed :) That door was giving me a lot of hard time. Thanks for watching!! :)
Great assembly, if not for the algae, which we would be doing with our aquariums :)
I can’t wait for the update of your tank
Hey Vladimir good aquspacer is indeed a good fighter against algae ..Really nice
Thanks!!
😅 at the end everything is good 👍🏼👏🏼
Almost everything :D
Wow what a great idea cleaning the sand that way. I am going to try that. What is the plant hanging off the drift wood? I have wood in mine and I want to add that plant like you did.🐟🌿👍😄
The plant on the wood is Monte Carlo. Thanks for watching!!!!
Good video 👍
I love your videos
Thanks!! I appreciate it.
The LED lamp looks really nice. Have you done a review on it? And the Scape also for sure
Thanks. Check out this video has a section on lighting czcams.com/video/5DX-ao0mC7o/video.html
Cool. I wonder why these lights aren’t readily available on Amazon.. they look awesome
Thanks!!
i love your videos 😉
Thanks!! I appreciate it.
hahahha mantullll
It looks like a ship now.
Maybe some Oto cats can give you a hand. It's a gorgeous scape, hope it balances out soon.
Thanks!! Confirmed by my aquascaper friend that the oto's won't eat this algae :(
How about the photoperiod? to get rid of the algae problem i normally set the lights 6hs per day and that's enough
Thanks for advice. All my aquariums have 6 hours of light a day. Something else is going on with this, but I'll figure out where the problem is.
Wtf you really dip ur head there😂😂😉
No 😄
How do you fill your tank back up with water? I use a bucket and it always makes a mess.
I have two 50 liter buckets and I use a pump to add water to the tank.
@@vladimirstojanovic3603 ah ok. Good idea! Thanks man!
You may have too much silica leached out from the sand. Use Seachem PhosBond in your filter and reduce heater to 20 degrees C.
Today the algae is gone, but it will come back tomorrow. You must destroy the root cause
Will a few black out days kill the hair/silk algae?
I don't know, I haven't tried it yet :D
Vladimir Stojanovic you should try! I had some algae on my anubias leaves and about 4 blackout days got rid of it!
Super 👍
Thank you 👍
How has your experience with those lights been? Im building a new 80cm setup and I can't find the correct lamp. I have only found 60 or 90, the first one too weak, and the second one comes out on the sides
The lighting is very good for green plants, for red plants not so well. I mean, red plants will grow too, but it won't be that vivid. The lighting has a cooling fan, little is noising while working.
I have been looking for kessil lamps and they are priceless. I think Im going to buy a 90cm chihiros and hang it. Thank you very much for your time and keep building!
very nice aquarium💪 what exactly is this sand called?
Thanks!! Quartz sand.
@@vladimirstojanovic3603 thx 💪
Some differences - to control algae, no need to reduce fertilizers by 50%. In fact, it should be the opposite, dose more, because the root cause for algae is either low plant bio mass or poor/slow plant growth. If plants grow healthy, algae is automatically gone! Maybe reduce lighting and increase c02 a bit (keeping it safe for the livestock).
Thanks!! I tried it all and nothing helped. In the end the plants were mostly healthy but also the tank was full of algae.
I notice your Bristlenose Plecos are very small. Are they juvenile? If they get bigger will you worry about them disrupting the sand or soil?
I’ve been considering one or two for my upcoming aquascape, but worry since my brsitlenose got around 5 inches and is destructive.
Yes these are juveniles. They get bigger, they can be a little destructive. But in this tank they can't do any major damage because there is no soil just sand. So they have nothing to mix. The substrate is all the way under the sand.
Vladimir Stojanovic awesome! Thank you for the reply. That’s what I was hoping you’d say. I’m considering a similar sand/soil setup. Keep up the great work and video content!
Actually I really love the layout
Thanks!! I appreciate it.
I wish i could have big tank like this,,do maintenance on small tank is a pain
Спасибо Товарищ
What’s the light you use in this tank?
Check out description below.
amano shrimp eat hair algae, just add a few of those...
Can Montecarlo_ Carpet growth on lava stone or drift wood sir?
Yes.
👍🏻
I have fish eat algae they work very well until now I have to find algae from outside to feed them.
Silk Algae 😂😂
nice scape tank there, anyone else have a similar tank at home ?:D
Move the lights up by 20% ..say it's at 10 inch from surface, raise it to 12 inches. Idea is to reduce the light intensity. That should help with the algae. Give it a shot
Yes, I did it 3 days ago. We'll see if there will be results.
@@vladimirstojanovic3603 also, moving and disturbing sand will release all proteins trapped and make algea flourish. I know it looks better but shouldn't be done often. Photo period should be shorter as well. Probaj pa javi ;)
@Smiley Fotoperiod je 6 sati na svim mojim akvarijumima,a sto se tice peska izgleda da ce tu doci tepih :D
@@trumpetsnail Your fundamentals are flawed. Not cleaning the sand will increase the nitrates a lot, the sand is not water proof, the stuff which is mostly fish poop is already part of the water column and removal is good.
@@sakleo8 I didn't said not to cycle and clean sand but to make it less often, i.e. once in 45 days...
add more shrimp. they will eat the algae.. red cherry shrimp
i had similar algae and went away with chemiclean
U r so funy
Поздрав имењаче... Недавно сам провалио твоје клипове и одушевљен сам твојим радом и што то што неко наш то тако профи ради... Нов сам у свему овом тј тек треба да почнем..
Можеш ли ми рећи за почетак где и за колико си набавио тај предивни акваријум, наглашавам само акваријум без опреме..
Поздрав из БГ и унапред
захвалан
Hvala!! Iskreno ne secam se koliko sam tacno platio aq,130 ili 160e zaboravio sam :) to je bilo pre dve-tri godine. Evo link ovde se mozes raspitati za akvarijum maliakvarijum.rs/#pocetna
@@vladimirstojanovic3603 Хвала ти имењаче пуно.. Само да се са женом консултујем за кинту и правац Нови САД
E да само још једно питање..
Пошто сам нов у свему овом и за почетак би се фокусирао на рибице са наравно неким камичком, дрветом и пар мање захтевним биљкама, који канистер би ми препоручио за акваријум од неких 240-270 литара.. И дали би уопште један канистер био довољан..
Извини за гњаважу и велики поздрав
Jedan jaci kanister ili dva slabija. Mada zavisi koje ces ribe imati i koliko. E sad koji zavisi koliko si spreman da izdvojis. Ja bih ti preporucio aquael,oase i eheim kanistere.
Појединости још не знам али вероватно неке мање или мање захтевне рибице.. А за кинту је увек код нас проблем али се увек ископа кад затреба...
А шта кажеш за овај модел.. Дали би ово бар солидно радило посао

I have the same problem
I'm sorry to hear that :(
😍😍😍😍😘😘😘😘
Omg xD
Can’t you get a cleaning crew to help you on the algae?
I am the best cleaning crew :D
I have amano shrimp and plecos in the tank. I added before SAE and he ate tripartita japan, he didn't even touch the algae.
Different algae requires different crew members... what about Oto’s and snails?
Confirmed by my aquascaper friend that the oto's won't eat this algae :(
You Dont use co2??
CO2 yes.
Please make dance only video next time. 😁👍👍👍
No! I don't know to dance :D
the b,nose pleco doesn't seem interested for these type of algae
No :(
I am the first
Liquid co2
I do not add liquid carbon to this tank...yet
It may help as it acts as an algaecide
@@Jax_81 yep... Easy Carbo should help as well.
If you don't like it
You can always give it to me!
no 4
Nooooooooo!!!!!!!
Reduce ferts ? In my opinion reducing your ferts will not help. Keep ferts the same. Plants need it. The algae thrives in low nutrient environments. Also if you reduce the ferts therefore less available to plants and then they become lacking in nutrients what may cause poor growth and result to algea.
Yes, you are right,it makes sense. But I use tropica fertilizer and on the package it says in case of algae reduce the dose by 50%. I did that before with another type of algae and it worked. If this is a silk algae as I think it is, it appears in nutrient-rich waters. This tank is not so heavily planted,it is possible that I overdid it with fertilizer. I'll try this and we'll see what happens.
@@vladimirstojanovic3603 I understand and I would follow the same process. Although with you low plant mass I feell that it may be your lighting. But I'd always make sure you have checked your nitrogen and co2 levels. More so the co2 if that has fluctuated and you have changed the ammount causing the tank to unbalance or moved the lights also.
