      Greetings and congratulations for what you are doing, I have a question or rather a confusion, namely: what do you think about the round biorb aquariums or about the round bowls of different gallons 10, 20, 30 etc... can fish be kept in them? The shape of the aquarium matters so much, I ask you that everyone gives their opinion and has certain ideas. Thank you and I wish you all the best!

    Heey buurman greetings from Antwerp 🤙👊🐟
    Last time I used a mos ( smoothie ) in a dry startup I used aged tank / canister filter water and spraying tank water on the wood to get a better and more bush growth from the mos
    I hope this can help you for the next time

  • @kingston6191
    @kingston6191 Місяць тому

    When you're doing the dry start with the moss you should use slightly less water and sprinkle in some aqua soil, that's the nutrients that it needs to grow. It also helps it to attach ;)

    Patience, at the end the moss grew very well! By the way, I saw a video by ‘Pachi Aquarium’ and I remember he combines a dark start (with water) for the hardscape for a few weeks, followed by a dry start for the moss without water. This worked quite well perhaps due to the fact that the wood was well soaked with water after the dark start.

  • @thierryfelix7796

    Another great scape, MJ. Bedankt voor de videos. It’s cool that you still showed the result with the moss even though it didn’t initially turn out as you’d hoped. Sometimes on UA-cam it can be easy to get sucked into believing everything is easy and goes right first time when in real life it doesn’t always go that way! Especially when you’re still fairly new and learning like me! It was so cool to see you at Horizon for the workshop with Balbi. It would have been great to chat to you but I didn’t want to distract you as you looked very busy 😅 hope all my questions aren’t causing you headaches to edit! Maybe next time 😊 tot ziens!

      Yeah there’s no solenoid valve on the regulator, so I’m using an “inline” solenoid.
      So basically from the regulator I have a little bit of tubing, then the solenoid, and then more tubing towards the diffuser

    Can u help me bro? I have an aquarium light. The aquarium light is connected to a box with button. If click on box once, purple light on. If click again, purple light off. If click again, white light on. If click again, it off. If click again, pink light on, if click again, it off. I want white light only, but i dont know how to connect it to a timer so that only white light on. Please reply sir😢.

      If you unplug the light while the white light is on, and then plug it back in, does the white light come back on? If it does, it will probably work with a mechanical timer cause all they do is cut the power to whatever is plugged into it.

      @Anonymous-gh3wc It's hard to know what will help without knowing about the light, but if there's a connector between the aquarium light and the plug, then there are aquarium light timer and dimmers that you can purchase to go inline between that connection, and should be able turn the light on and off without switching through the spectrums.
