2cm is a little low for the cap, its not good to plant the plants directly into the soil, rather let the roots find their way into the soil to absorb the nutrients on their own
Hi sir, this is very beautiful! And a well made video. One peice of advice, I've made something similiar and I found that the cap on top of the soil needs to be thicker than the layer of soil. Otherwise over time the soil expands and goes into the water, which is not good.
Great set up 🌺 I wonder if this method can be used in setups with un uneven bottom??? Like, can I create a hill/ridge at the background and have a similar effect??? 🤔
@@ceyhunderindere OWWWWW like in the landscape design 🤔 Good thing I asked, was not sure if this is the case with aquascaping - almost no one used support/walls in RUclips tutorials 🤔🤔🤔
It's been over a year but what I think they mean by support is in reference to the sand, if you build a hill of dirt and then put sand on top you run the risk of the sand just rolling down and exposing the dirt. Exposed dirt is BIG no no in Walstad tanks, because the rich dirt will leach many nutrients and chemicals to your water that would make life for fish and plants pretty much impossible. So that, keep the dirt capped with sand.
The opening sequence show you using what you have called garden soil. To me it looks like commercial potting compost. Please can you tell me what you actually used and if you mixed up the soil can you tell me what you mixed together to get the final product?
@@ceyhunderindere Thank you for the advice. I thought that what you have used was a soil made for garden plants. As a beginner to aquascaping I have been looking for helpful videos that are not all about the maker of the videos and how clever they are but good facts and details about what is used and how to create beautiful aquascapes. Your videos meet all my expectations and I am slowly working my way through them. Another very helpful thing is that you reply to questions. I have watched other videos on the subject and asked the video maker questions but never receive any replies. Keep up the good work. Your videos are great!
you used normal garden soil? can i use vermi compost? any reason you replaced water after adding soil and sand for first 2 days? I just realised you from Turkey.. i hope you all right?
yes, I used normal garden soil, I did not try vermi compost, min 50% water change is necessary to remove the accumulation in the water. evet istabuldayım , teşekkürler

how long do you have to wait until the water is OK? I started up a Walstad 20l cube. I am now in week 5 without water changes. but it has a high phosphate and I think 2nd nitrite peak. Do you also have a Facebook page or Questions forum?
@@ceyhunderindere also during the start-up weeks? I do have a small filter in it that provides current in the aquarium. there is only a sponge pressed into it to keep the flow rate low. But after the start, just do a 30% water change every week?
How far do you put the plants down in the substrate? Should they be touching the soil part or sand/gravel part? Some of mine I put all the way down to the bottom of tank and others like moss and smaller plants that I couldn’t put down all the way are sitting in the gravel/sand.

Amazing🎉. Just amazing. I am from Bangladesh. I want to do this same natural settings. Please can you tell me what things exactly do I need?
Im amazed that the plants are healthy even without co2, aeration or airpump or filter, would it be possible to put some fish without those things
Betta can be put, you better be a filter for other fish
Yeah betta or gourami im sure they can tolerate with out those.Thanks

How do you avoid getting biofilm on the top of the tank?
If there is fluctuation on the water surface, it will go away over time.
Looks really nice ,simple and clean. What dimensions of tank?
Thank you, i think 25x30x40h
How did you prevent algae ?
more water changes and excel carbon
im surprised the plants didnt burn since the capping is so thin. good stuff man

Walstad minimium dept of soil is 1.5 inch
Can i add fishes in this set up ?? As i was thinking kf trying this beauty ! Let me knkw and thanks in advance !
Of course it can be added, but it should take 3-4 weeks for the bacterial culture to be fully formed.
How deep the plants roots go when you place them, all the way under the soil???
They can go pretty deep

Can you explain why you changed the water so many times?
garden soil initially contains a lot of minerals
how long do you have to wait until the water is OK? I started up a Walstad 20l cube. I am now in week 5 without water changes. but it has a high phosphate and I think 2nd nitrite peak. Do you also have a Facebook page or Questions forum?
I did frequent water changes until the water improved.
the small aquarium in itself is no problem to get it right, and then, do you also do water changes?
Water change is a must, especially for Walstad @gunterwerner5105

algae may form over time, it is necessary to intervene
Why did you do a water change on the second day
plant soil causes excess mineral and element accumulation in the aquarium, we remove the excess with water changes second day
Bu tekniği uyguladıktan sonra hemen balık koyabilir miyiz yoksa bir süre beklemeli miyiz?

I made the error of an overly shallow soil cap and recently had to take that tank apart. Apparently a substrate depth of 2+ inches is more effective
