One Hour Tanks! Aquascaping

[Vodoc Xeno]

Hey everyone!

These are the first videos of a new series where I setup small aquascapes.
The concept of these tanks is to setup short term scapes in different glass containers. For one hour. The limited lifetime of the tanks allow me to setup unique aquascapes without the long-term constraints like needing a filter and use different types of moss.
The tanks are filled with the water coming from the tank the Ramshorn snails and the RCS came from. (So it's cycled water).



Forest Edge - One hour Tank #1

Clearing - One hour Tank #2

Forbiden Forest- One hour Tank #3


I will publish one every Saturday.

You can also check out my Facebook page for a lot more pictures and regular updates.


More to come. =)

See ya

It's an innovative concept, and the scaping is good! Great job!

Agreed.
Ever thought of making a business out of these tanks? haha *$$minded here LOL*
Also what plants are you using in these cases? Do you grow them yourself or what?
It's tanks like this that make me want to get off my *** and work on rescaping some of my tiny tiny tanks

Hey
Thanks for the comments! =)
I'm experimenting with moss that, for now, I get in the forest. I'm working on learning what light and environment different types of moss like.
Then I'll be able to grow my own.

Moss types that I use:

Plagiomnium undulatum (Hedw.) T.Kop.

Plagiochila

Dicranum scoparium Hedw.

Hypnum Imponens

Polytrichum formosum

I love your moss and scape! Wondering where I can get those in Singapore.

[Vodoc Xeno]

I don't think you have the right climate in Singapore for these types of moss...

Oh that's so sad... those moss would look really beautiful in my vivarium.

Here is the fifth setup! With fish in it this time =D
Tell me what you think! =)

Very good setup! I would have rather have had boraras in the tank; they fit the tank size and would look great against the backdrop/scape
