    IAPLC 2013 - Results are out!

    Agreed, lets just wait and see. It may not even the tank that he submitted. It may just a rumor going around on the net but I can say that the picture was just a hardscape and very good one. There are many possibilities with it. I do agree those in rank 100-130 might be better than those in top...

    IAPLC 2010 TOP 27

    setting up nano using ADA (Ammonia related alqae)

    plant densely from the start, the plant will help absorb those ammonia. Get those fast growing plants. Floating plants will also help. Alternatively you can do frequent water change, maybe twice a week or more.

    IAPLC 2010 Results are out

    Single person choosing top 100 out of 1800 plus photos. Not to mention the printed photo on the floor is merely about A4 size paper and he shorted out while standing. He probably wont be able to see the scape detail from that distance. Thus first impression will be very-very important to get the...

    IAPLC 2010 Results are out

    That is not entirely true. There are 16-18 judges and around 7 of them are Asia. I think more interesting question (at least for me) is how does Amano shortlisted 100 photos for international judges to judge. Does he him self pick the photos? in this case it is up to Amano taste :mrgreen...

    OK got it, though not sure what happen with your tube? Interesting part is it only happen to the tubing close to the water surface. would it be possible it cause by UV? I know UV cause plastic become brittle, unless mixed or coated with something to prevent it.

    If you like HC, you will love this!

    really? normally with that thick (3"), the bottom part will not get any light and start to rot and the whole thing will float. Any idea what is his secret so that it won't float even though 3" thick? ;)

    Co2 Fluctuations and BBA

    What if plant does not grow not because it cannot grow, but because they were carry by the current until it settle in the bends area? In Aquarium we purposely plant them deep in soil or tie them in rock or wood, thus water flow will not be able to uproot them. Also we are talking about flow so...

    Maybe the bubble was 100% dissolve. What is your tank size? maybe 2-3bps is too little thus drop checker only indicate dark green. you can see bubble coming out when you set to 10-20bps telling me that your connection is OK.

    Cani dose 1 weeks EI dosing at the start of the week????

    Should be ok. I do not think plant will care whether you dose daily or weekly. They are happy as long they can get the required daily nutrients. The problem probably with your fauna because you are dosing 30ppm in one go. Not sure how well fauna handle the sudden change.

    Very easy. Actually all the Eleocharis acicularis sell at local fish shop (Singapore) is grown emerse. I even visit the farm to see how they grow their plants. In my experience it doesn't require special threatment

    glosso or hc

    In my opinion glosso require higher light than HC to keep them stay low. My 3ft tank 90x45x45cm with 4x39W T5HO OSRAM 8000K and individual reflector, when I turn off one of the tube, glosso start to grow up. It is repeatable, so I'm sure that my light is just at the right wattage for glosso. Of...

    Just recently, I borrowed NO3 test kit from friend. To my surprise I had 80 ppm plus in one tank and 160 ppm in other tank. API test kit is only up to 160 ppm so not use if it is above 160 ppm. I test the test kit with know NO3 ppm and the test kit is correct. Anyway, with such high level, no...
