A L. inclinata 'cuba' dominated Aquascape

Tobi · 07-24-2008, 06:05 AM

Hi,

here is another old Aquascape from me:

Tank specs:

160l (40 gallon) 100x40x40 cm
Substrat: ADA Aquasoil Amazonia
Light: 4x39w T5 HO
Fertilizing: Modified PMDD+PO4
CO2: 30+ ppm (mist method)

Not the best shots of the tank, but i do not have any better

. Especially the CO2 mist is all over the tank and some reflections from the other tank are on the glass. But anyway, here are the pics

.

Best Regards
Tobi

you mean you used a DIY Co2 solution? - And you got the mixture into your tank?

I like the picture of your Cherry Shrimp

Hi,

i use pressurized CO2 in combination with a venturi Diffusor => small bubbles everywhere in the tank

. But excellent pearling from the plants and good growth.

At the moment I use a nano Diffusor in my 60cm tank and a bigger Diffusor in my 160l tank.

Best Regards
Tobi

I think he's talking about the surface scum...
Hi Tobi... I have not talked to you a lot of years :P .This aquascape is really great. Regards

Hi Cristian,

thanks

. At this tank is no surface scum... I had a surface skimmer installed. All bubbles are CO2 and O2. Looks a bit messy

but the plants loved it.

Best Regards
Tobi

maybe while taking the photo shut off the co2 injection?!
because of all the smalls bubbles the water looks cloudy ..
im not a pro in taking photos but i allways try to give tips to make your work looks better

Hi,

of course it's advisable to shut the CO2 injection of... but those pictures are snapshots. Not pimped up "aquascaping shots". My new scapes have better pictures

, without mist and without reflections.

best regards
Tobi

aaah ok - looking forward to your new scapes

Where are your from Germany? Do you speak german too?

Tobi · 07-24-2008, 10:13 AM

Hi,

im from Göttingen and of course I speak German too

. Maybe take a look at my German plant and aquascaping communîty "Flowgrow.de", there you can read lots of stuff from me in German

.

Best Regards
Tobi
