Great video! I'm about to try growing some of this stuff in a few projects!
Really helpful tipps for this difficult plant. Great video!
Thank you!
Awesome scape! I'd like to set up something like this for a long-term tank - assuming that all conditions are met, do you think I can keep UG scape for years to come? Or would they struggle after certain periods of time?
Not every design needs to have a raised soil profile in the back. Doing the opposite has the same effect. It feels like you are on the top of a hill and just over the ridge could be more. Very nice
Thank you for the kind words mate! I agree and in this particular scape it was a peninsula design that can be viewed from 3 sides. So it had to be flat for it to look nice from all sides
Congratulations amazing tank 👏 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🙏
Thank you! 👍

Hi ❤love from kolkata
오 젊은 청년이 감각있다. 굿!!
Helpful tips and i love this carpet plant. btw for how many hours do you run the lights for ? and do you use high co2 injection or medium co2 ?
Lights on for 8 hrs , 80% intensity on all channels on the vivid 2.
I inject co2 till 30ppm. Drop checker shows Lime green 🙏
@@scaping.architect Thanks alot for the response. Will try this settings. Been trying to grow this carpet plant and failled miserably.
Excellent video on UG!
I’ve attempted to grow it more than 5 times and still without success 😅. Your video helps me understand why. Thank you!
Btw, how did you deal with algae at the start of this tank? Or is it because you used mature aquasoil and filter so algae did not bloom at all?
I did have a little bit of algae, I had some floating plants to help. And planted Monte carlo as well for additional plant mass. This is because I didn’t have a lot of UG to start with, as it’s quite rare in Australia.
Definitely helps if you have mature substrate and media.
@@scaping.architect thanks a lot 😁
Nice, which filter media are you using
Aquario neo media soft
what carpeting plant does well at 30 C? I want to keep discus thats why
I believe you can try lilaeopsis
So I cant have UG without Co2?
If you want to have it in a shallow aquarium he said that you probably would be ok without CO2 , strong light is a must.
