    Hey,
    In this video, I’ll guide you through setting up a beautiful Iwagumi aquascape! From choosing materials and arranging stones to planting and filling the tank, I’ll share tips for creating your own masterpiece. Learn how to split in-vitro plants, adjust water hardness, and care for your setup in the early weeks.
    I also share why I chose not to include fish or shrimp and how to gently introduce a cleaning crew later. Watch the full process and let nature do the rest! 🌿

      I bought it from a local Store in Town.
      It called " Seiryu Stone " , very common for an Iwagumi!

    Thank you for the video, it's a beautiful piece of work. If I'm not mistaken, it looks like Seiryu stone. Do you have a KH that's not very high?

      @@johnasga8788 hey! Yeah it it recommended to Keep the Soil moist (in a closed enviroment) because the soil can crumble and Fall apart if it was dead-dry,
      If you have a open bag, make Sure to close it thightly or Transfer it in a Container with a lid. ( store in a cold place & away from direct sunlight)
      You can also keep it moist; just spray it a couple time with Destilled water (RO water).

      @ but bro is it ok to put gravel on top atlis to save a little money, it woll works too in grass carpet even i top it with gravel? And one thing mate if you saw the video of tropica they put gravel on top? What you think mate? Hmmm im wondering becuase im planing to put gravel on top and put monte carlo or any grass carpet do you think its still works on that kind of method?

    • @AmdonArt
      @AmdonArt  20 днів тому

      @johnasga8788 hmmm i think it would work but not so ideal because in the gravel there is no nutritions, but i think it would work. But i would not recommend it.
      If is the Budget money the only reason why you would use gravel, Just use less soil and more Stones(lavadrain) underneath!
