This is what happen if we lack of patient.. i try to change the scaping and method over and over again in 1 month.. just wasted previous effort.. the plant suffering, especially HC..

this is some moss i pick from garden.. pearling like riccia.. so beautiful.. but it won't last long..
trying emerse for 1 week.. HC dying.. regret.. what u see is all floating HC..
latest test, before fill in water..
i stuck the anubias nana into the hole from wood..
this is the pearling garden moss you see previously.. died..
trimmed blyxa.. have 6 bunch..
hydrocotyle from my friend, just put it aside and leave it alone..
1 week old after fill with water (half tank)
blyxa growing, anubias stuck in garden moss place..

i just found that they call this freshwater limpet.. i suspect it can eat away green spot algae..
some red meat snail.. dunno what name..

unknown plant.. just suddenly bloom from there.. need to wait for it to grow more to identify what plant is that..
masilea growing fast..

My DIY Co2 Reactor
Using 80 sen small bottle. I create this reactor.
Normally how many Co2 melt in the water, how many escapes to surface?
well i believe more than 80% wasted... your sugar and yeast also wasted.. sohai betul right?
Now, The concept is trapping CO2 bubble inside bottle and using water flow to shoot directly inside that bottle to create Turbulence. the excess water mixed with co2 will forced out through sponge below the bottle. Co2 gas remain inside bottle because it cannot pass through the sponge...
Unexpected benefit is, the co2 bubble inside the bottle getting more and more, thus the excess co2 bubble has no enough time to mix with water will also forced out through sponge below in the form of very fine... tiny bubbles... better than ceramic diffuser...
Plant start pearl after 15 min install of this reactor..
After 2 hour... never pearl like this b4... really amazing.. AA Gun Warzone....
Plant Wanted : Hygrophila Polysperma
No Need CO2,
No need High Light
Grows Fast and green
88 Mart and Nilufa doesnt have it
So far, only seen in Salak South display tank

DIY Transparent Outflow Glass
This thing is expansive. Alternatively go to Tongkee Sri petaling buy this (80sen)
potong senget half and connect to the transparent hose... settle.
ofcoz recomended for canister filter type.
I buy liao for DIY my internal filter water flow to prevent water splash hitting my lighting.
DIY : Canister Filter
Hey guy, i manage to find a nice guideline to create a DIY Canister Filter. Below is the step
good trying!!!
we cut 30cm of pvc tube. we make a hole for the water entrance and a semicircular hole on the bottom lid.
then, we make a hole for the water exit on the top lid and placed the screw tubes with seals.
we glue the pvc pieces, cleaning them well and sanding them lightly.
then we make a hole for the compression gland.
for the baskets, we cut the bases of the pvc screens. then from the rest of the pvc pipe we cut three 6cm pieces, making them a bit smaller to fit inside the canister. then glue the pieces.
we glue the pump to the top lid and adapted the water exit from the pump to the other 1/2 pipe with a little piece of hose.
we put the compression gland and let dry for 24 hours.
we cut the filtering material to fit the baskets. sponge, fiber and biceramic.
we put the baskets inside the canister. first the sponge, then fiber, then bioceramic. and top it of with a single pvc screen to prevent things from getting sucked by the pump.
we connect the hoses to the valves using the adaptors. the valve in the water entrance is permanent and is used for keeping the water from spilling when servicing the filter. same thing with the other valves, we shut them and can leave the hoses in the aquarium
we do a 24 hour hermeticity test.
we put the in and outflow pipes in the aquarium (note the horrible filter that used to be in that tank).
and there it is. two weeks after installation. working like a charm.
