Brown algae or diatomes are common at the early stages. 1) Aerate tank well for 14 hours after switching off CO2 2) Use ADA green bacter. assuming you have used Bacter 100 or equivalent bacter 3) As a preventive measure use small sucker mouth catfish like SAE or Ottocinclus
I’ve just got some yellow wild Lillie’s from a pond they do not have the root bulb but do have a little root I’ve put them in a bowl of water & the flowers are growing out the top how do I plant these with no bulb root just let them stay in suspended water till they grow more roots ? My first experience with water Lilly’s there beautiful Thank you for your video & knowledge
Sir, please mention plants in written words as some times it's really hard to find plants by just listening the scientific names,,,by the really like your content,

Hi! Please see if you can share illustrations / examples of what kind of rocks to use with what kind of aquascape - from your perspective, of course! Many thanks.
Very good question, never really thought about it. First in aquascapes you should try and use rocks which do not affect the water chemistry, like pure volcanic rocks like Frodo, Manten, various course lava rocks. These rocks do not affect the pH and hardness and hence great for planted tanks which needs soft water mostly. Some rocks like Ryuoh, Seriyu, Dragon are very good to look at but then they tend to make water hard. They especially Ryuoh , Seriyu are great for African Cichlid setups. If you want to use them in aquascapes then you need to either use very very softwater or use some water softneing agent like ADA Softwater. This is a pretty involved topic, lets see if I can make a video on it
Adopt a way,,,, a road,,,, a path ,,,,,a method or a plan and before you even begin your destination is predefined by someone else,,,,, which should give you some idea as to what the true potential of your creativity has been reduced too.....! REAL TALK....!
There were different colours as well. Those in the video are very small ones. I remember when we were young, we used to catch alot of these fish. The ones we get in muddy places are small, muddy or greyish in colour and growing upto 5 or 6 inches long. But the ones we get from streams or rivers were very colourful with black spots like the ones in the video. There were also mixed of reddish and bluish colours as well and they grow big upto around 10 - 12 inches.
Hello, I saw some of your videos and found your videos very very informative. My daughter and I am developing interest in starting a new hobby to make an outdoor lily pond, grow lilies and breed fish in it. I was told by a friend who is doing it, to breed guppies. But I have been trying to understand how it works, before I get them, as I don't want it to fail. Are guppies the right fish? I am understanding that the mini pond being in sun, will attract algae. Algae will cause danger to guppies. What other fish I can add if I want the algae to be in control. If I do that, will guppies and these algae eater be able to coexist I was trying to find if there is any video by you, which addresses my concerns
Sorry for the delayed response. You see algae, unless it's overgrown, does not cause any harm to fish. In fact they help in growth of microscopic organisms which fish use as food. The algae itself is also eaten by some fish. But then from aesthetics perspective, it is better to keep algae under check. And the first thing you should do is avoid direct sunlight falling on the pond. May be you can position the lily pond under some broad leaved plants or trees which provides indirect sunlight. You should also for as big a pond as possible. The more the volume of water the less will be temperature rise and hence less chance of algae. Try to have some flow in the pond using some pond filters or even a simple air pump. Flow will avoid stagnation of water which leads to algae. You can use black mollies in the pond they do well in algae control. But the best option is shrimps, provided you have enough hiding space in the pond or else they will end up as fish dinner. Shrimps especially red cherries multiplies a lot with right hiding spae. Do not add any fish or shrimps till the pond is matured, water has cleared up and the plants established. Hope this helps. You can also call our team @9830009691 for any further help or assistance. They can hep you and our daughter further in this beautiful journey that you have embarked upon :)
Hello Sir, thankyou for sharing all the information for the aquarium hobbyists. Just wanted to ask whether we can use laterite stone in our aquascape since it is local to our western ghats majorly konkan region. Will it change the water parameters to extreme?
Sorry for this very late response. My suggestion will be not to use laterite stones. They might cause certain heavy metals to go in the tank which can have detrimental effect. If you want to still use they wash them very thoroughly. Hope this helps :)
In 2011, we organized a 2-day workshop at Park Street Kolkata. However, we do note your feedback and acknowledge the need for a workshop in Kolkata. We will definitely take up the matter with ADA. Finally, we will need the support of patrons like you
