Which Techniques Used for you to make the distribution and fixation of Every kind of solids?
not use special techniques, just fixed pressure rocks or logs in the substrate. I sometimes use small stones as support to make the log or stone to remain rights. No special
Techniques, I just fix the push in the wood or stone Into the soil. Sometimes I just use Some small stones as a support to make the wood or stone stand straight.
Have you made some kind of sketch or drawing before assembly?
Have you Prepared Any kind of drawing or previous draft to set-up?
If I make several sketches before mounting and after mounting always performed some more to see other possibilities.
Yes I do Have Some sketches previous to set up, and events after set-up I will still try to see sketches to Other possibilities.
To do the distribution of solids and plants have followed some type of ratio has previously studied or simply improvised on the fly i / or follow your intuition.?
To Arrange the distribution of solids and plants, are you Following Any kind of proportion or Simply Studied Previously improvised you as you work on the scape or Follow your intuition?
Yes, I like to follow certain proportions, as the golden ratio, so I do some calculations and put tape on the front glass, then put the materials in line with that.
Yes I do follow Certain Proportions, like the golden ratio so I do Some Calculations and put masking tape on the front glass, Then I will put the materials accordingly divided the
How are you going to incorporate the nutrients during the first weeks of assembly?
How do you add nutrients in the first weeks of set-up?
In the first 2 weeks I do not add any nutrients em water. Only from then I start to dose nutrients (KNO3) and when the plants begin to grow new leaves or have ADITO iron.
Well in the 2 weeks I do not put Into the water nutrients and Stock. Only after That, I start to Dose nutrients (KNO3) and When They start to grow new leaves or Dose Then Some Iron.

What I do is remove all the algae and make more changes of water. Also try growing plants that can compete well for for nutrients with algae
Well of course, part of the algae Are aquascaping. I get a lot of green spot on the glass and rocks on the white sands. Also I get from time to time BGA on the white sands.

Well, I made many moves in the hardscape, tree trunks and I changed positions a few times trying to get the best result.
Usually my first assembly and the end results look very different. That's a bad habit of mine and because of that I'm not very good determining the "hardscapes" so sometimes fail to make the first.
Well I do move a lot of the hardscapes, I Have Changed the woods and the position couple of times and Trying to get the MOST of it.

Its kind of a bad habit of mine, But Also Because I'm STI not still very good at determine the hardscapes and of course sometimes we just unable to get all the hardscapes all at once.
¿Has seguido un seguimiento fotográfico durante todo el montaje? ¿Te ayuda la fotografía a visualizar mejor el desarrollo del acuario?

Sí, me gusta tomar fotos regulares del tanque, ya que me ayudan a ver dónde mejorar.
