I had a pedestal bowl lying around for sometime. So I picked it up on a cloudy morning and built myself a cool aquascape or what you may call, a water garden or a miniature pond.
I used aquasoil, inert gravel, driftwood, stones and of course plants for this scape. I have mentioned all the details below.
It started pouring down heavily in between and I had to move indoors to complete the work.
Soil/gravel used - Amazonia aquasoil and inert gravel
Hardscape - Malaysian driftwood and Seiryu stones
I used sewing thread to tie the moss to the driftwood
I also used aquascaping glue for glueing the plants to the stones so that they wont float up.
Plants used-
Anubias nana
Christmas moss
Philodendron
Hydrocotyl tripartita
Amazon frogbits (floating plant)
Water spangles (floating plant)
Common salvinia (floating plant)
Horsetail grass/bamboo.
I will be using liquid fertilisers for plant growth.
the water garden will be kept under led lights with a consistent photoperiod of 8 hours everyday.
