I very much appreciate how you labeled the plants…I’m new to this and found it very helpful. Planning my first planted tank soon and this was helpful.

I’m super impressed, wow. The growth from day 10 is unbelievable. I wonder if it’s because of daily water changes

Nice tank and nice way of setting it up. Years ago I had some algae issues, nothing major, but when I ditched high lightning and started planting a lot of plant mass + floating plants I'm algae free since.
I have one gripe with all these aquasoils and that is that they are not really long term substrates unless they are capped. After half year they get depleted and than you have to start with liquid fertilizers and root tabs and than after year or two they start breaking... If you rescape often than they are ideal but if you plan to have aquarium for 5years or even more than I like capping them. They have high cec and will remain potent that way, and you wont get high nutrient release in the start that warrant daily water changes.
I know people buy it for looks and than rescape but they are fantastic as capped substrate to if you want long term aquarium.

One of the best aquarium channels online. Hope I see you around

My 35cm Walstad cube was the most stable ecosystem I created. No algae problems from the very beginning.

What a helpful video! I'm beginning now with my first aquarium and here I found 10 minutes of pure and simple knowledge. Thank you!

[wabayava]

I have a 2ft tank (15 gallons or 56 litres) and i have used this method and it worked really good my tank looks awesome but i suggest adding shrimps in tank this will speed up plant growth

[chrisaqua]

Great job! Very nice decoration for your desk 👍

[aravisish]

Dear Mateusz:
Thank you, so much, for providing detailed information, on keeping an amazing set-up algae-free. In retrospect, I wish I had seen this, before starting my, 75-gallon tank. I’m adding plants, slowly and not doing frequent water-changes, so diatom algae has covered everything.
All my best,
Sincerely,
E. J. Brinegar

So cool, thanks for the advice, looks amazing

Near the end, there was some tiny creatures swimming around in the tank. Copepods maybe? Beautiful scape and really shows the power of plants!

[Aquafinity]

What a stunning setup! Love the layout. 👍

@aquascapingcube, thank you for sharing.

Despite all the challenges comments here (which I have experienced so many times myself, especially after 6-8 months), I will try.
Well, hobby is about enjoying the process 😂. Even though it fails, well, start again with other methods.

My practically minimum algae, very rare cleaning of the glass, is my shell dweller neolamprologus multifasciatus tank, deep sand bed 6-7cm, matten filter. Running 3.5 years, only one kind of fish & malaysian trumpet snails.
The number of snails changes along with amount of food. Well, very easy to maintain, but not as pretty as planted tanks

Great video and tank, keep up the good work!

Hi I've setup this tank exactly as it everything growing well but echinodorus is dying almost.

[funloving]

I will try this procedure once.. i have been struggling with achieving crystal clear water in my tank. My tank is same as this one. It gets lightly cloudy in 3 days... I control the feeding, but still not getting it. I tried liquid solution for clear water, but they give temporary result.
Could you make a video on achieving this. Keep it easy and simple as this video.😊
I have a hang on back filter, bio media, carbon in it.
Driftwood, cobamba plants and few rummy nose tetras❤.
Thankyou for your video, keep doing more. We appreciate you 😊👍

Instead of aquasoil can i use organic compost and sand on top.
