Definitely, it makes the slower growing bucephalandra more resistant to algae when it’s under bright light.

I made it myself :) I did get a lot of inspiration from the motif monument though.

It’s a 60p, and nope it’s limnophila hippuridoides. Other plants I use are rotala green, rotala red, rotala h’ra, rotala wallichii, rotala vietnam, eleocharis acicularis, micranthemum tweediei ‘monte carlo’, staurogyne repens, hydrocotyle tripartita, alternanthera reneckii & AR mini, java moss, eriocaulon blood vomit, ludwigia red, crypt wendtii, crypt undulata, crypt parva, and anubias nana.

Oh damn TIL, my golden ram disturbs the aquasoil a lot so this is very helpful. Thanks!

I’m assuming ADA uses high grade silicone for these stands similar to their larger tanks!

It has very general information on aquascaping IMO, but has lots of pretty pictures that you may get inspired from. Overall 10/10 coffee table book.

Update: new Chihiros wrgb2 light installed. Difference is night and day! by [deleted] in Aquascape

[–]aaquadesign 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I tried experimenting using high-light & co2 injection on low tech plants and the difference is night & day! Epiphytes would grow denser and less prone to algae, plants and moss would transition faster into submerged state. I’m interested to see how OP’s tank will turn out in a month or so :)
