    I can appreciate your scapes more than any other person in the world. This is because you have the most natural looking environment for your animals. Some aquascapers plant their tanks until it overgrown into a forest, this does not look like anything you would ever find in nature. Don't ever change the way you do things, you have inspired me and many others. Keep it up!

  • @HieuNguyen-lr3ot
    @HieuNguyen-lr3ot 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The background is a really clever idea, but if you want better coverage and a short amount of time I suggest you put the moss in a blender, spread the moss slush over the foam and leave it to grow emersed for a week or two. I do this with rocks and I always get good coverage with this method. You can also attack plants to the background foam as well. I think carpeting ones like Cryptocoryne Lucens would work well without taking up too much space. I would also suggest adding an airstone to the area between the background and the glass. The movement will allow the foam to function as a filter as well as a growing medium.

    These are totally the kind of frogs I would love to have. Just like Mata Mata turtles. I love the weird ones! I just want to ssay again that I love how you put your animal's welfare first. The scapes are designed around the animal's needs first and foremost, and your animals' welfare comes before your videos (such as the decision to hold off on moving them in). I can't wait to see these guys thriving in this setup. Best frogs!
