Do!aqua Wabi-Kusa

[ADA]

After a few attempts at Wabi's that we're ruined by my impatience during the bag phase I got this one right and thought I'd share. It's a Do!aqua 2010 cylinder, manado substrate and a TGM sphagnum ball.

Plants are:
Limnophila Aromatica
Alternanthera
Crypt Parva
HC
Hydro Tripartita
Weeping & Spiky moss
Eriocaulon
Bacopa
Glosso
Hygrophila Araguaia
Ranunculus Inundatus

[ADA]

You will be pleased to know that one will be along shortly lol, once the opti is planted the spares are going on my WK ball, beauty of the TGM balls is you can dry out and re use when ever ha want 😉.

Do/did you have any trouble in going from very high humidity to very low humidity?.... How did you solve that?

I planted the ball and placed it in the bowl in a large fish bag, undone it every day and misted it, after a week or so I made a hole in the bag about an inch in diameter and kept up the misting. Every few days I'd make the hole bigger until the plants acclimatised and the hole was big enough to remove the bowl through, after that just once or twice daily misting 😉.
