    I think many high tech led lights that sit close to the aquarium and are high powered are almost always way too intense at 100%. You should always start off at around 50% intensity and gradually increase that number until you start seeing algae. At that point you want to wind it back one notch.

    • @TheCineScaper
      @TheCineScaper  5 лет назад +5

      I tried out 50% light intense, but didn't help me, as I wrote it in the video. I never use this lamp at 100% on this tank.

      @sperilaalecsandru65 5 лет назад

      You can find calculators online for the amount of light needed. You can also use a app to see the amount of light you have in the tank

      @KlimovArtem1 5 лет назад +1

      It’s better to get some cheap PAR meter or rent a decent one and do some measurements, before deciding if you have too much or too little light. But, yes, the safer approach is to start dimmer and then slowly increase day by day, observing the changes. I would not reduce the photo period though. All tropical plants and corals adapted to have ~11 hours of light per day. They can’t utilize products of photosynthesis fast enough if you give them very bright light for a short period. Better to distribute that energy more uniform in time for a longer period.

    It's so interesting seeing this perspective for me. How an aquascaper has a very contrasting idea of algae with me, a microbiology undergrad student cultivating marine algae for my thesis. One of my friend even did use peroxide (H2O2) too, but on purpose to stress out the algae just enough to not die, but still be able to produce higher metabolic products.

  • @TheCineScaper
    @TheCineScaper  5 лет назад +44

    FIRST again! ALGAE It’s an everlasting question how to get rid of them. Since every aquarium is different there is no exact answer. It can have thousand causes but it’s sure it indicates a problem in your tank. In the beginning I was messing a lot with the algae and to be honest with you it can still be a problem.
    I neglected this tank recently I wasn’t looking after it. I was suffering from algae for a longer while and even this video haven’t been about to be made, because I wanted to take it apart. But eventually I figured out how to give you some useful tips based o what happened.
    I’m hundred percent sure this video won’t solve all of your problems with algae but I hope you will find some useful tips and gather some motivation for the fight.
    Don’t need to be afraid of algae and you shouldn’t be pissed too. Just assume it as a challenge. So good luck guys, algae can not win!

    @craigathonian5755 5 лет назад +1

    This video is GREAT ! Through the years of focusing on planted aquariums, i've had almost every algae one can get.....and even some unknows. With all the ups and downs i've come to the conclusion.... if you have a good bacterial set-up, chances are you'll have some kind of Algae. i don't use Co2, and i've stopped using the Excel-dee-hyde stuff, (not enough info on saftey.) One thing i've noticed is that once the plants have acclimated and are happily growing, the battle to eradicate any infestation is a whole lot easier. My main weapon has been H2O2 or for removable plants or cuttings, a mild chlorinated bath,(for the difficult agae.)
    Has anyone tried a tank made entirely of those lab grown sterile plants ? ...Thank's for posting this !

    EPIC! This is fantastic! I love the story you tell and the drama you create with this video. And, I’m really pleased your hard work paid off in the end! Just one question though-if you keep you filter running during this whole process, does such high doses of H2O2 not effect the bacteria in it? Did you leave if off at any point?
    Cheers, mate! 👍🏼💚

    • @TheCineScaper
      @TheCineScaper  5 лет назад +1

      Thanks! It effects the bacteria of course, but not as much as people think. It is because the bacteria in the filter forms a media called biofilm, that makes bacteria more hardy then if they was separately. If you switch off your filter, -in my opinion- is a bigger risk, because lack of oxigen kill many bacteria for sure. I dont know which thing kills more ( H2O2 vs. lack of oxigen), but in my experience with H2O2, maximum side effect was a little opalescent for couple days, and some sensivite plants was hurted a bit, nothing else. Shrimps, and some fish species can be sensivite too.

  • @dusk1947
    @dusk1947 5 лет назад

    Nice video. Yes reactive oxygen species like ozone and hydrogen peroxide kill smaller organisms. It likely did harm your plants too, but their larger and more complex structure allows them to recover rather than die. H2O2 is a natural byproduct of cellular respiration, and thus most complex organisms have enzymes to deal with it's presence. The smaller the organism, the easier it is to overwhelm and kill. This was an interesting example. Thanks for sharing it

    Another great tool in the fight against algae is to set your timer for a two hour siesta period. Plants uptake nutrients a lot quicker than algae after being in the dark and you can use this to starve the algae while still feeding your plants. 👍

    Nice Video,
    for me I was really suffering with green ALGAE and BB as well,
    I started using Seachem flourish Excel daily and that helped me to get ride of the BB but not the green algae,
    anyway I started bulding a new Aquarium and I needed the CO2 System and the light there
    I removed it from the old aquarium for two days
    no lights no CO2
    after two days I got new lights so I took the CO2 and lights back to old aquarium which has algae
    I was shocked when I turned on the lights
    no algae at all and the water become clear crystal!!
    I hope this can help anyone facing the same issue

    ===============================================================
    00:21 我與藻類的史詩戰鬥
    00:41 我可怕戰鬥的真實故事
    00:44 戰鬥了幾個星期
    00:47 我嘗試了所有平常的事情
    我減少了光線,也改變了施肥和水流
    00:56 但從來沒有成功
    00:57 當事情發生時,我幾乎放棄了
    01:05 3週後,我似乎要贏了
    01:17 我是怎麼做到的?
    01:25 我瘋了......
    01:28 (訂閱)
    01:31 它不能保證它不會回來,但似乎是我勝利了
    01:36 讓我來告訴你怎麼做
    01:39 第一次嘗試
    01:41 因為藻類的數量很多
    我不得不在戰鬥前移除所有生物!
    01:49 起初我盡可能多地去除了藻類
    牙刷效率很高
    01:56 這種痛苦的鳥事
    看起來像棉花糖
    也許是髮藻類/水綿,但我不確定
    01:59 傳播速度快,很難消除
    02:02 軟管刷也很有效
    02:09 剪去受感染的植物*
    *幾乎是全部
    02:36 說實話,這種安排並非完美
    02:43 換水
    02:58 H2O2(更多信息在說明中)
    我對付藻類的最愛武器
    1L水族箱水使用1毫升 3% H202酊劑
    03:10 這個過程需要很長時間,並且建議在一天之後換水
    03:23 13天後
    完全失敗
    不幸的是,我沒有帶著相機
    但是,當我想知道如何應對這次惡意創造時,這是完美的揣測
    03:31 藻類回來了
    03:34 我考慮採取整個隔離
    但是因為我沒有任何遺失
    我在其中加入50ml 33%H2O2
    03:49 3天過後 藻類死亡
    03:53 廣泛的
    04:01 我很驚訝
    植物沒有受到傷害
    04:17 還有一些希望,但如果根本原因沒有得到解決,則沒有任何保證
    藻類將會回來
    04:30 (訂閱)
    04:38 植物很健康
    05:04 讓我們開始清理殘局
    05:22 鋼絲刷
    05:33 真的不能使用別的
    06:15 純RO水
    06:22 最後一輪過氧化物
    但現在正常劑量
    06:25 1公升水族箱水使用1毫升 3% H2O2酊劑
    06:51 6天過後 藻類消失了
    06:54 這不足以讓人擺脫藻類,
    我不得不想許多的事
    07:00 我設法讓水流均勻的在水族箱的每一個部分
    這個造景沒有很好的規劃,
    大木頭看起來很好但是阻擋了水流
    07:11 HYDOR PROF 250 CANISTER過濾器
    具有生物過濾和噴射水流
    07:13 由於水族館很矮,因此很難獲得良好的二氧化碳溶解量
    我把擴散器放在了這個地方,因此它更加高效,氣體的使用也減少了很多
    07:25 二氧化碳溶解量現在很高,水滴檢查器內呈現青綠色
    07:29 PRESSURIZED CO2 O-24(產品名)
    07:35 ONF FLAT ONE
    非常明亮
    我必須將亮度降低到40%
    07:40 如果你可以買一個可調光的燈
    07:49 我減少了照明時間,調整成7到6個小時
    07:56 (訂閱)
    08:06 它不足以消滅藻類
    根本原因需要解決
    08:18 最終的解決方案可能會減少光線,釋放流量並穩定二氧化碳添加量
    我使用TROPICA SPECIALIZED FERTILIZER
    我每週一次的劑量分別用於三個區域
    最好保持低劑量的水平
    08:28 這些是您在做巨大變更之前需要考慮的因素
    08:30 我不得不去除藻類,因為它不允許植物生長,它不應該消耗肥料。
    08:40 我希望藻類永遠不會回來
    08:44 只是解決了關於藻類的麻煩
    08:49 不要將ALGAE作為失敗
    這是一個痛苦的鳥事,但不是災難
    08:54 完全沒有藻類的水族館不存在
    而且毫無疑問的它大多很難看,而且還會阻礙植物生長
    09:00 如果藻類出現,這表示你的水族箱環境不太好
    09:06 光,肥料,水流和二氧化碳這些是主要的事情
    09:16 H2O2是解決藻類的最佳解決方案(正常劑量)
    1公升水族箱水使用1毫升 3% H2O2酊劑
    09:21 在你沒有其他方法,超量使用是一個激烈的解決方案
    請務必取出所有的動物
    小心,因為它可能也會傷害到你
    09:29 你需要用很多方法來正確處理藻類問題
    它沒有一個確切的解決方案,每個水族箱都是不同的,需要不同的方法來解決
    09:34 多多練習,並且你會得到經驗

    @KlimovArtem1 5 лет назад

    If you have a planted tank and micro algae problem, why would you keep dosing fertilized and CO2 at all? Those would be first things I would reduce even before reducing lighting. Also, if you add several shrimp that start breeding, at certain amount of population they will consume micro algae faster than it can grow. I have a small planted shrimp tank for many years and all surfaces there are absolutely clean from micro algae. Plants doing well without fertilizers and CO2, they just don’t grow that fast and I don’t need them to.

    I usually put on the aeration after lights and CO2 are off. If you don't do this all your beneficial bacteria dies increasing the bioload in the tank

    Try using UV filter it sure helped me, I have been having the same issue but now my tank is algae free

      I don’t prefer UV filter, but thanks for the tip!

    Undeniably great cinematic and shooting skills. Hydrogen peroxide once decomposed is harmless as it decomposes into pure oxygen and water. Hydrogen peroxide WILL kill bacteria, beneficial or not. It is an antiseptic after all and used to disinfect wounds among other things. Also saying that "if algae appears it shows you that something is not ok with the tank" is unfair in my opinion. What is not ok is the person taking care of the tank since the tank is simply complying to parameters imposed by the scaper (knowingly or not) ;)

    I love the color in this tank! I was wondering how much credit goes to your ONF light. How does it compare to a Chihiros?

    • @TheCineScaper
      @TheCineScaper  5 лет назад

      Thanks! You can find ONF lights price on the www.onf.com.tw official site. ONF light is amazing but much more expensive than chihiros. Btw chihiros is a good budget light!

    The video ended exactly when I expected Russell Crowe to step in the set yellin' "Strength & honor" & start taking out algae with his roman sword! But then I realized this ain't the Gladiator!!!!
    Seriously now bro, I'm really sorry to inform u THAT IT WAS ALL UNNECESSARY!!!! Lemme explain myself: a high demand planted aquarium is a unique equation of 1. light 2. CO2 & 3. fert. All 3 parameters have to make a perfect match!!! That said, u only had to find out which one of the above parameters was a mismatch. Was it 2 much light? 2 low CO2? 2 much or 2 little fert? Well, the easiest step would be increasing CO2 every 2-3 days until u could see algae slowly dying. This would be the CO2 threshold according 2 your other 2 parameters!!! The expert's approach though would be trying to isolate 1 parameter at a time & adjust it 2 your desired plant growth rhythm! This would have the added benefit that u needn't remove the live stock. I'm NOT trying to lecture u here, I just experienced the exact same problem not so long ago & I came 2 a decent solution following the steps I mentioned above. Some random spots of black algae every now or then is all that reminds me the time & effort I spent on my 70 lt fully planted tank. Made me much much wiser about the way high demand fully planted tanks really work though, so I STILL NOT REGRET IT!! Hope my story helped anyone in here. Go slow, go safe, folks, that's the way nature works!!

    Beautiful video. But how come you dont use amano shrimp and a sae? They are killers for that kind of algae. I added the fish in moment i saw it, the next day the algae is all gone. Now, I only get green spot on the glass, but the hair algae is an endangered species in my tank.

    great video man....I have a question, noting that the height of that tank is so low, could not be the problem the amount of substratum used....normally in a highest tank you could have problems if you dont have enough CO2 to burst the plants to consume all the nutrients....In a tank like this you will need maybe even more CO2 to consume all that nutrients stored in the substratum

    • @TheCineScaper
      @TheCineScaper  5 лет назад

      Thanks! You are right, the substrate contains nutrients, but not so much, since it's Amazonia Light, that means it has reduced nutrient amount. Also the highest nutrient stock is in the water, because I pour fertilizers daily.

    did you pour 50ml of 3% H2O2 or 50ml of 33% H2O2?
