EASILY the best aquarium plant tutorial I've seen. Awesome job!
It was already 6 years but still the best video content👍 thank you sir!
Finally someone on UA-cam who really understands this hobby. There's too many people saying crap on here that's just plain wrong.
I know right. Haa... thanks man
you mean... plain wong? lol Get it? hahaha
One of the best informative aquarium videos I've seen on youtube yet! Thanks Dennis!
Dennis, you do a great job of explaining everything with your narration and video. I really appreciate how you take the time to share your love for this hobby and teach people like me (a beginner) how to better understand and manage a planted aquarium.
You're welcome~ hope your tanks are growing well
BEST educational video on submersed plant growth! Thank you, it's a huge pointer in the right direction.
I love your videos. No one else provides such detailed and to the point content. I would love to see more content on the hobby from you.
This is what i call passion. Everything was in detail, editing was great, it has really made me understand fully. Cheers!!
I've just recently visited your website in the last few months and I must say its FINALLY nice to actually have methods actually backed up by science rather than anecdotal evidence. Thank you for everything you do.
The best informative video on UA-cam. Thanks for sharing.
Absolutely the BEST video I have sen on the subject. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. I now look forward to much nicer carpets in my tanks!
I know this is a old video but thank you, you are a wealth of knowledge and greatly appreciated.
thanks man~
something people dont address and over look is something as simple as having a greenthumb. people who keep gardens (outdoor veggie gardens) and house plants transition easier into aquascaping and the world of aquatic plants. i purchased some from a local shop that wasnt running co2 in their tanks. ive been growing mine with out c02 as well. it does just fine with out it. this hobby requires patience which most people lack.
Well done. Love the channel and the clear information provided! Thanks Dennis.
GREAT video sir! All your points are well explained, thank you so much.. I feel that I have a better plan now attempting to grow an HC Cuba carpet.
About to attempt my first planted tank using some HC and Java Fern and your videos are helping me feel a lot more confident on it! Thank you!
That's great ~ If you get CO2 tuned right, everything else is easy
Following your advice, my HCC is growing like crazy even after 1,5 weeks after planting
cheers Dennis...hope to see it soon. Till then...here's wishing you a speedy recovery.
Your video was very well done. I really enjoy carpet plants and will try your recommendations, thank you.
Well explained and laid out. You definitely have a new subscriber!
Very helpful my friend.
It took me years to try HC, the myth of being extremely hard kept me away.
When i first tried it it was a breeze, and even though i normally don't have problems growing HC your video still managed to teach me a lot of stuff i did not know.
+AQUADESIGN by aquamaniac Thanks ! I use monte carlo nowadays for the larger tanks nowadays, easier to shape and more robust overall, and less fiddly to handle. I'd still use HC for small tanks though
Your videos are always helpful! Thank you ;)
Dennis you're truly a planted tank master
Fantastic video. Great images, and clear explanation. Keep the videos coming!
Thanks ~
Getting my co2 setup soon and I've bookmarked this video.
Wow 😲 amazing explanation!!! Thank you so much
Hi Dennis! I really like your videos, please keep it up! Thanks!
Regards
I stumbled on to your channel. I thought I knew pretty much everything but wow was I wrong... great job bro
thank you Denis l love your videos and your knowledge
Awesome video!
Thank you for your videos! Please keep it up!
Attractive, and informative. Thanks for sharing.
Fantastic video!
The best video about HCC
you're doing a great job bud, can't wait for your next video, very helpful video :D
This is really informative thank you
Tremendously well presented and explained.
A Must watch, plant growing tutorial.
colinbarsby Thanks man, all the best for your tanks ~
Dennis Wong I'm sure a lot of us are waiting for you to make some tutorial videos, on video editing and production. I know I am. :-)
Thank you for this video!
Real information......very nice.
Thanks for the awesome videos!
I really liked your video. Thank you.
Great tutorial! Thank you!

New subscriber! God bless!
Very cool and informative.
Awesome video, Thank you.
I enjoy your videos
Wow! That was really helpful, thank you!
Am I being sex trolled?
Each to their own but that's not for me.
😫 I never had this problem much until trump came into office.
We've definitely done back about 60 years. And to top it off I'm Native American I have not tanned it all because about 800 Native American women in my state disappear every year and I live in Wyoming there aint too many people here.
Not a piece of meat And they don't want to be treat like a piecement or treat others like a piece of meat. Especially sexually. Like I said each to their own but I cannot fulfill that it's a niche and the majority is not like this.
There are other things I want. Why don't people approach me with a good health care 😭 Thanks for thinking I'm attractive that's very kind of you °~.♡.~°
Great video!!!
rewatching all your videos this morning. Dennis you are the best i love you come live with me you will be the most well fed fish in my tanks. i will buy you live food every day
haha thanks man
@denniswong yes I have been watching Dave's vids, thanks for the reply!
nice tank! nice colors
Thank you very much!!
great video
thank you
You are great!
Hi Dennis!
Great video in explaining the requirements for Dwarf Baby Tears and the signs and symptoms for a good carpet!
I've just started to use CO2 in my tank, a disposable one though as I'm still waiting for the solenoid to get shipped over. I was afraid to plant Dwarf Baby Tears because I know they demand a very good environment with precise CO2 dosing, so instead I chose to plant the Dwarf Hairgrass.
The tank is up for almost 3 weeks and I just got the disposable CO2 yesterday. They are still growing very slowly but I'm seeing new grass sprouting from the substrate other than the clump itself. I've pruned it once when I just got it and it was around 1 inch tall, after that it doesnt seem to grow much higher but getting more compact instead. My light source is a 14W LED light and the tank is a 24 long 15 gallon. My question is, are you familiar with symptoms of Hairgrass CO2/nutrient deficiency?
Thanks for the video! :D
Amazing Dennis, thank you!
What are the plants with the little balls on the top?
In the opening shot.
Damn you're gooooddddd...!
Great Vid Dennis! How do you actually combat or prevent moulds during the DSM for Dwarf Baby Tears?
The density of information in the video is amazing. Don't have to sit through half the video of mindless chatter
your advice works sia. not very bright light with high C02 really helps with carpeting foreground plants like HC and Glosso and Monte Carlo
Helps with most aquatic plants in general - I feel that shops etc often don't emphasize this enough
I think because they need to sell more lighting sets. Hahaha.
Dennis...your videos are amazingly simple to understand and so complete in their coverage of contents...Could you be kind enough to make an educational video on "How to optimize flow in a planted tank"...since it goes hand in hand with co2 control
+good samaritan Thanks... yeah I should do that, but still recovering from lasik surgery, so things have been slow
i have a question. if you have a carpeted tank, how do you clean the gravel?
Hi Mr. Wong, i started a 120p with hc cuba as carpet, DSM for 6 weeks, after flooding the cuba is adapting quickly (some melt some adapted) however i noticed that some of them are slanting upwards instead of spreading, i have 3600 lumens with co2 injection at 1b/0.75s, EI dosing. Should increase lighting and ultimately inject more co2?
nice movie
Hi, have you or does anyone have tried planting HC via tying it to a rock instead of planting it in the soil? Everytime i try to plant into the soil right away, it either gets uprooted or theyd rot, the ones that don’t rot, are not growing either but not dying, its really green.. wonder if i should try the rock tying method..
Hi dennis!!! I don't understand how my HC Cuba doesn't pearl... Could you explain to me?
plus how could you add co2 naturally without specific equipments?
My HC got frost bites in shipping so the roots were lost. Leaves were green and some stalks so I planted anyways. They have rooted after a month and I see side shoots with new leaves from some of the plants. The old leaves and pretty much the whole substrate is covered in Algae though and I keep removing it with a brush. Any suggestions? Thanks.
Side note.. I have grown HC before very successful so I am not new to them. Another note since I had to go out of town I had to use my city water which is really hard and high pH. before I used R/O water. would this have anything to do with my issue? Thanks #best planted advice on Utube!
thx
Can you use liquid carbon? Like seachem excel
Can I grow this in gravel without use of aquasoil ? I’m currently injecting co2 for this plant and will probably increase my co2 if the leaves is growing vertically. Able to advice on the success factor for growing on gravel and what to take note to ensure a higher success for this plant.
Can you make a video on elatine Hydropiper thanks in advance
How long of lighting time for this HC Cuba? And how much the power of light for it. Im using Chihiros wrgb2 with 80% lighting power, 6h/day.
Thanks Bro!
mine grow with very short internode, like varies only about 2mm to 4mm maximum, and leaf are big, about 3mm but they are growing upward? what is this? co2 deficiency?
Hey Dennis, I have fulfilled most of what you suggested (I think).
My temperature in my tank is between 28 to 29 degrees. I experience melting still. I grow them laid onto dragon rock. Any suggestions?
hi dennis nice video , your co2 running 24hours or not ?
Man I love your videos! How long have you been in the hobby? Your tanks look so pristine, no algae, water parameters seem to be absolutely perfect. Can you go over what filtration you have, Lighting, photo-period length etc? I believe you've already done a video on dosing. I know every tank is different. I would just like to know what you run on your tanks.
I usually run 7 hours of light, maybe 8-10 hours on some tanks. PAR-wise, usually on the higher side as well. I don't run any special filters, pretty standard Ehiem stuff, with the media that comes with the default sets. Occasionally use purigen
Can you plant this below water
What are some ways to lower the alkalinity of water? I have well water from the Midwest US and have very hard water so I assume the water is also very alkaline.
Nick Bartkus There is no easy way to lower alkalinity, though it's very easy to raise it (use limestone in tank etc). One can use RO(reverse osmosis) water either partially or fully in a tank. Buffering substrates like ADA can reduce alkalinity for a few months but it isn't a permanent solution.
great video! please post more. fellow Singaporean.
+hans chia Thanks ~ Been busy with work, but working on making a vid on lighting now
+Dennis Wong what are you working as. must be something science related. I'm in arts :)
+hans chia lol, something entirely unrelated - I trade financial securities for a living. But science is universal no
+Dennis Wong that's totally different ball game man! ha
My tank size is 100cm x 50cm x 50cm. I bought Tropica HC. I have ADA Amazonia II substrate with sprinkled addictive below also from ADA. Temperature range around 25-26 Degree Celsius. CO2 about 2 -3bubble counts per second. High lighting for about 10 hours a day. Today is the fourth day and see they are melting. Any idea?
does anybody know whats the light in the video?
Why my baby tear leaves grow longer night time the leaves closed up , is that normal?
Love your vids!! I recently bought HC tissue culture. Unfortunately when I planted I had to go out of town for 4 days. c02 injection, medium light all set on 8 hour timer. when I came home they are completely melted. No sign of new growth. They do not look completely gone but do not look good. Will they come back if I get all the parameters back?? Any suggestions? I did notice my c02 levels were not high enough and adjusted. Also is it easier to start submerged potted hc or is tissue vitro hc harder?
They're about the same as long as the sample is healthy to start with. They do okay with harder water, but if you bought HC samples from a softwater source, it takes more for them to acclimatize
My HC has begun to turn yellow. Any idea why?
Great video - I am looking for a lower C02 and light alternative to HC to carpet my 36g cube.
Try monte carlo
Perfect I have Monte Carlo tissue arriving on Thursday. Will be doing a DSM.
What type of lighting?
Great video!!! Does this mean it will be much easier to carpet at 69-70f ? Then at 78-80 my room temperature keeps tank at 69.5-70 I don’t use a heater in my Nano tank
In that sense yes
Very informative video. One question, what do you think of CO2 pellets as a supplement for HC? CO2 setups are priced and I'm broke af.
Those don't work. Hmm try the DIY route; citric acid route, or check out second hand deals ~
Hi, that was a good video, but i have two question, can you please tell me detail about what kind light you are using in that HC tank? and also, can i use liquid Co2（flourish excel) instead of using Co2 can? thank you!
No liquid CO2 is no replacement for gas. I use different lights across different tanks
How long will baby dwarf live? Someone told , they can't live more than 3 month. Is it true?
Will seachem excel work instead of CO2? Also how long do you keep the lights on for?
Excel is no real replacement for injected gas CO2
Again, an amazing video. Do you have any recommendations for a good co2 diffuser? Mine is producing big bubbles and the plants aren't getting good co2 access and aren't pearling. Thank you.
I know of good ones locally, not sure what is in your market. Get an inline atomizer rather than diffuser, much finer bubbles
Dennis Wong ok thanks. I'm in the US so I can order from aquaforestaquarium and places like that. I tried the Archaea super diffuser and it didn't really work. Right now I'm working with a cheap glass diffuser.
I'm using a Finnex fuge ray 36" at 18" height (38-47 par on paper). If I have long internodes + upward growth, how do I know it's CO2 and not insufficient light? Thanks Dennis!
+painofprince That's well within the range that can grow HC well - you can check out other tanks growing HC with the same light - may also be planting method (if overcrowded) or too warm temps ? CO2 is still the most common factor - adding more light can help, but more light = more risk of algae
wat r the wattage of the 2 desk lamps.how many gallon did u use tis desk lamps.sorry don mind I follow ur methods exactly n get good results:)
+Deepak Srinivas 20w CFLs... BUT nowadays I use 10-12w LED bulbs that screw into the same E27 base fixture. Less heat, but I suspect slightly less PAR as well.
I Bought 2 12" x 12" Baby Dwarf Tear Mats to carpet my tank, what is the best way to plant that? its a pretty thick mat, and I think I might be there for a week if i try to separate into smaller strands. Any advice?
+Erick Mitchell You can plant it in small bunches, but bury them well as they tend to float up easily. If the mat is thin, you can lay the entire mat on the substrate and lay substrate/wire-mesh on-top of it to weigh it down - roots will attach to the substrate after some time if it goes into growth mode.
Hi Dennis great setup and lamps, I planned to get those as well. How long you turn the lights on for? Mine is fluval chi 2 tank. With 5 gallons
i also plan to get the 23watts light with 6500k from.IKEA what do u suggest
It'll work; I run the lights for about 7 hours, anything between 6-10 should be alright as well.
