    Your algae looks more like Cladophora than hair algae. I'm battling it in my 7 gal right now.

    • @SiliconvalleyScapes
      @SiliconvalleyScapes 2 дні тому

      @wiscorails yes it definitely is cladophora, very short and bushy like. Not sure where it came from, I'm guessing the rock work or Java fern as it was reused. This may be a long term battle lol good luck to your fight as well this type is usually really hard to get rid of. In the past Co2 injection helped me alot but I kinda want to keep this tank low tech. Cheers

    It would be amazing if you removed that rainbow fish and added 2-3 more Neon tetras. A few cherry shrimp would look amazing as well. The tank would look so much more lively. Just be careful as not to overstock it. Otherwise, I must say it's quite a beautiful scape.

    I'm a huge praecox rainbows fan. I had 7 females and 3 males in my 55g, but I found 8 dead one morning. They're very susceptible to mycobacteriosis. No other species of fish in the tank were affected and the water test was perfect. I ran 2 seachem tidal 110s packed with biomedia and it was established for a year.

      The learning curve is not to bad, check out Neptune Aquatics off of 5th and Commerial. They sell UNS tanks as well as kessel lighting. They have a pretty good selection of fish too. Plants I would recommend getting tissue culture plants! Just make sure you do a little research, let me know if that's helpful!

    • @SiliconvalleyScapes
      @SiliconvalleyScapes 2 місяці тому

      @tinosmo1 the tank is probably about 140, substrate (aqua soil) 30, hardscape 40, and plants 80 to 100 ( you can do cheaper or more depending on plant type and volume of planting). Filter heater can varry alot, I would recommend and all in one like Osae about 110. Kessel lighting is super expensive the light on this tank is over kill around 500 with everything. But you can get a cheaper one for around 50 that will be sufficient! If you do a bare bones set up for under 250 you can make it work and still look.nice! Around the 10 gallon size, if you size down the tank you can get the cost down more

    How is this a low tech setup? You are running Co2 and what looks like a canister filter...and running a ton of chem. Its a good setup, but its the opposite of low tech. I am at a loss for what you could even add as more tech for a setup this size. Again, good tank, good scape, but definitely not low tech at all.

    • @SiliconvalleyScapes
      @SiliconvalleyScapes 2 місяці тому

      Low tech meaning no Co2 injection and no dosing. Only using Excell and ADA substrate system. I don't have any Co2 injection in this setup. The white thing in the corner is a twinstar for algee control. Thanks for the input!

      @@SiliconvalleyScapes Fair enough. The air stone by the canister filter in/out looked like a CO2 stone. My bad. I guess for me when I hear low-tech I think no tech. Maybe it's just a definitional difference. Again, it's a quality tank

    • @drryangagnon
      @drryangagnon 2 місяці тому

      This is the closest I could find to a definition of what makes a low tech tank: "A low tech planted tank is an aquarium setup that leans on the minimal side in terms of equipment. They typically lack powerful lighting, CO2 injection, and advanced filtration. The emphasis here is on ease and natural balance."

    Only been in the hobby a few months but from what I've learned, your tank may nearly be fully stocked. I'd suggest a few more neon tetras, apparently they prefer to be in groups of 5 or more, and a cory catfish for waste cleanup. They only get a few inches long at their biggest. But that's just what I've read, I'm not pretending to actually know anything. Beautiful tank and scaping though!
