Fascinated by a construction step by step, where they were used ADA products, I wanted to play like an aquarium (Much smaller in size) and cheaper alternative products.
The aquarium is 70 liters with filter change. This is my first aquarium in the years and has seen different versions, but perhaps this is more unusual because I used a double bottom supported. For many, this type of fund may already be familiar, but for others it may be a new experience to discover. That's why I decided to document the steps, and I must admit that it is not 'been easy to manage is only part of the establishment that the section on photographs. After clearing good for the aquarium, I started to wash the white sand and the Akadama fund. The Akadama is a land used for bonsai should not be washed to perfection.
To make a double bottom supported, I'd need a separation that I got easily using an ordinary cardboard recovery.
look at the future construction, to have foreseen Within the card in a simple shape such as a photograph on the side. Over the aquarium and the layout is large and complex, the more extravagant forms may be attributed to the card.
Added cardboard proceed with the inclusion of the two funds being careful not to mix them. Usually when you use the Akadama, Some recommend placing the Osmocote (fertilizer for agricultural purposes). I personally am against the use of this product because if used improperly promotes the proliferation of algae. It 'my habit to use as fertilizer instead of the pads of trust which, tested on several occasions, I have always given great satisfaction.
Without the separator, the view from above is definitely nice and clean. Before inserting the plants, you should start to fill at least part of their tank. In the photograph on the side you can see how the use of an open envelope surface of the water to facilitate the task of filling
. Be very careful at this stage, because if done incorrectly can compromise your work.
At this point I have devoted my attention to the furniture. Honestly I did not lose much time because the wood was already clean and I have not had the need to boil it since it came from a previous construction
I have limited myself to enter anubias in the trunk. Given the roughness in the wood, I did not even need to tie them but simply placed in different slots.
And finally I put my trunk inside the aquarium. As you can see I placed it precisely on the boundary of the two funds. This will give greater consistency to the composition. Finally I started to arrange the plants from the bottom and then move the insertion of the few plants in my possession for the foreground.
In the future I plan to replace a few plants of
Arrowhead with the Echinodorus tenellus, but currently there are only two and a bit 'rickety ;-)) And finally I decided to also change the park lights of my aquarium, replacing my old t8 with a 23 watt energy saving bulb 860. After reaching the peace of mind I finally took the final photograph of the finished work.
forgot to tell you that the Akadama had already been used for a previous layout, so all the problems of absorption kh should neutralize
