Obrigado por mais essa aula!

very interesting! I will try it with my rotalas! thanks for this great video greetings from Paraguay

Another very useful video, thank u 🙏

Thank you Fiipe!

Vídeo muito elucidativo! Desde sempre fui mais virado para o breeding, em especial de ciclideos africanos... mas mais recentemente iniciei-me no hobby de aquascaping e estes vídeos têm sido ouro puro. Um obrigado pelo bom conteúdo, e claro, os meus parabéns a um dos melhores aquascapers a nível mundial.

I have a 55 gal, no Co2. Two generic 53 watt leds. On 10 hours a day. PH 6.6 - 6.8. When planting a new plant. I plant them in the corner where i will add a mirror to the side and right next to the backside of the tank add a high flowing airstone. The leaves tend to reach for the airstone while growing and the extra angle of light somehow seems to bleed red or even purples into the leafs. After about 3 weeks I move them to a looser substrate that's already been fertilized by a root tab previously anywhere in the tank with no problems. Might dose with liquid fertilizer once a month after just because but that's about it. Thank you for the extra tips!

Thanksfor sharing this video sir..

great tutorial

Great information 🙂👍🏻

thanks for the knowdlege Felipe greetings from México

Thanks for sharing 🙏

Rest in peace. ❤ ❤

Muchas gracias por el video Filipe! buenos consejos como siempre! moito obrigado!

Thank you for this!!! Red plants add so much beauty and I'm learning all that I can so one day I can put all this to good use! I'm running a low-tech aquarium right now.. and I have some red plants for now.. but I know as time goes on I will need to take special care to assure that they keep their beautiful color. I'm collecting plants for a future build and I'm hoping that I can include CO2 to it! I always appreciate your expertise. And love your aquascapes!! Hope you stay safe as well and I hope you have an amazing day!♥️🐟🌱🌿!!

Great video 😊

Assim vale a pena perder um tempinho para ver estes vídeos. 👌 Um grande abraço

Really nice video 👊🏻.

Your videos are simple, yet classy. Your knowledge is sound & your presentation is genuine. It's always nice to know who is behind the aquascape creations, in my honest opinion. And I like what I see. Ok, I'm going to hit the subscribe button now, Mr. Oliveira... 👍👍

Thank you master 🙏

Grazie Filipe

Amacing as always!!! Lest make fire in that stem plants!!! 🌿🔥

Very beautiful😉✨

thx for nice video

El mundo de acuarismo te extraña maestro, que descanses en paz ❤

THIS is the high quality content I subscribed for to watch! First time in a while I've learned something from an aquascaping youtube video. If your production quality was like Green Aqua, I bet you would surpass them in suscribers within a year!

Thank you so much for the very genuine advice. I would implement them soon in my tank in which i was not getting so much reds mainly due to my fertz regime which i was dosing every alternate day..now i would reduce it..keep up the good work..you are a blessing for our hobby world Sir 😊

That makes so much sense. Awesome!

Amazing🙏 Felipe este teu vídeo do início ao fim com uma partilha de conhecimentos tão sábios e fulcrais. Para quem segue a tua carreira atentamente é um orgulho ter um Português neste nível e que nos ensina diariamente com este entusiasmo e paixão que a todos nos motiva para evoluirmos. Obrigado de coração!

I was watching the videos from the Bulgarian guys, specifically the video with Dave Chow, and daaaaaamn a Portuguese guy?! Ok let me check out what is he doing, cause I'm Portuguese too, and don't see many people talking about aquascaping in Portugal.. And I just found out you have a KZfaq Channel. I'm already a fan of your work !! Great tips!

Hi Filipe,im sure i benefited alot from you video and you have help alot in providing honest informations. I have always wanting to know how to change the colours of some plants to red or near to red.well its all trail and error,im sure this method will work for me n viewers.. well thank you stay safe signing of Nick. ( another awesome video ) 😀👍

Thanks for the tips. I guess its time for me to invest more in high end lighting. Seems the most important to me

Awesome video tips on Red plant! I always enjoy your video & easy to understand English spoken. What my concern here is if plants under *Intense light for long, will Algae start to boom as well.... that's the question I always wanted to ask. Thanks again mate, take care.

Hello Filipe, very informative Video and a beautiful tank! Which phosphate level do you recommend? My tap water has a phosphate level up to 3,0 mg/l. Thanks. Stay safe.

Love your content filipe! Any tip to achieve more coloration un buces? Beside all the tips in this video. Cheers from Argentina, love your scapes man, in the future I will try to replicate the aquaflora one but en mini version of it, the one with have all the stems in the middle behind the woods and ferns

Conteúdo de qualidade , assisti vídeo anterior , perfeita explicação ,Parabéns .

Great information Filipe. I use an all in one ei ferts do i need to change individual ferts to achive this.

I've seen planted tanks with amazing red colours, however, from what I have seen, the tanks are being starved of Nitrogen to produce those red colours specifically for pictures and videos. How can you keep a tank with that low level of Nitrogen for a long period of time? Surely this is detrimental to the plants, as Nitrogen is important?! It's impossible to get my levels that low, as my tap water has 60ppm of Nitrate. A very informative video. :-)

Moito obligado, tras seguir sus consejos de todos los vídeos de Felipe mis plantas están muy bien y no tengo algas en mi acuario.

Hi Filipe. Great video as always. In my aquarium 70 litres of the flexible pipe in glass of aspitazione with the skimmer. It does not aspire well from the skimmer and I do not know if it is a powerful filter (Askoll Pratiko 200) or if it is because it is not a good brand. Can you recommend an offshoot of the glass with skimmer, good for your job? I saw in your video that you have one that seems to work very well. Thank you.

Felipe, your tips worth gold. is there any chance of an online workshop or even a group of students online? I would be grateful to be your student and pay a monthly fee.

as always good info, how about phosphates should they be kept low too or not thanks master

Very helpful video Filipe. I'm dosing 2.5ml twice a week of Nitrogen on my two week old 63liter tank, but some plants that used to be red a getting green. Should I reduce it to 2.5ml once a week? Or should I go lower?

red plants + greens looks great :D "D anyone has red plants in their tanks at home as well?:D "D

Great video as usual! Side question, how do you find keeping pea puffer with the other fish? Any issues. I’m tempted to try but a bit nervous as I don’t have a backup tank

the fourth and most important factor in growing red plants is TEMPERATURE. In the tropics we can't turn H.Pinnafitida to red if the temp is above 26C.

what about kessil lights ?

💚 Français Anglais Thank you very much for this video. I am looking for advice because I have a twinstar 600 s brand lighting bar. I would like to know up to what intensity of the lamp to operate it. currently the lighting is on for 6 hours a day with a maximum of 80% of the capacity. this model is known to help the red coloring of plants precisely but so far I find mine still too dull. thank you in advance and again well done and in all the videos

Very informative 😊 how many bubble per second did you enable on ur 90p contest tank?

Do you think the flood light eg Kessils,Asta120 can produce red color or it needs to be spectrum high intensity light?

Hello, Filipe Great tank and very interesting content. I would really like to try your way of fertilization. .: Week 1 :. Monday: 5ml K Wednesday: 2ml Fe + 5ml K Friday: 5ml K Saturday: Partial water change 20-50% .: Week 2 :. Monday: 5ml K Wednesday: 2ml NO3 + 3ml PO4 Friday: 5ml K Saturday: Partial water change 20-50% Can you tell me in ppm what amount of microelements NPK you trying to have (What you add and what you have in your tap water)? On one of your video, You said weekly nitrogen 10ppm max. I sow in one of the comments that 20ppm of Potassium is more than enough. So what I should try to have in the tank?

Ive watched this video about 10 times. Im trying to get all my rotala hra and coloratas red but it seems that only the ones that i trimmed and stuck amongst the other stems but not in the substrate turn red. The stems in the substrate are green and grow with quite rounded leaves. I am dosing only 2.8 PPM nitrate a week ,my lights are strong and are on for 6hrs and i have co2. Should i start dosing 0 nitrates? Also does phosphate and potassium impact it?

Im using Tropica Fertilizers. Is it good to use the specialised one while growing the plants, and than after the trimming when I need those red colours I will use premium? It doesnt contain any nitrogen, so I need to dose some or it will be good?

Hi, what lights you have on this tank ?

Hello Felipe,how are you?

Hey Filipe, In the beginning you mention the sunburn. I am wondering if too intense of light can kill certain plants? For example, I have some Staurogyne sp. Bihar planted on a terrace, it’s a beautiful plant that resembles pinnatifida, and is mostly green but gets purple under intense light. I am starting to get some purple but also the leaves are turning reddish then melting and dying... could my light be to intense? My rotala is also curling over and won’t grow as tall as I’d like.

Ciao Felipe! I really hope you are getting well. As for the red plants, I’ve a mid-high white led lamp. Do you think i need necessarily an RGB lamp, or the white one (8500K) could be suitable for Ludwigia Repens and Rotala? Thank you in advance!!!

can you explain . how much watt of lamp LED to make stemplant going red...?

My experience of getting super red plants are a shit ton of light, fertilizer and good water quality.

My rotala hra and colorata arent colouring well ,they are completely green, ive been trying for awhile now. Im not sure why as my light is quite intense, i think my ferts are good and i have a good amount of co2. Im worried about increasing the light intensity or duration as i have some issues with green dust algae and diatoms. I have also started using remineralized RO water. Im quite disappointed with the health of the plants in general. Any advice?

Is the red coloration linked to water column levels/foliar absorption of nitrogen?. Won't the substrate availability affect it? I mean either way aren't they getting the required nitrogen. Or is it through foliar absorption can they absorb larger concentration but through roots only lesser quantity? Is it because of that?

Is there big difference between fluval 2.0 and twinstar you are using? As with my light I cant get results with red plants as you

it is said that to make rotala red is using soft water and low nitrate level, is it still possible that we use lime stone like seiryu that hardens the water and still have rotala flamming red (assuming that i have low no3, high light) ?

Hi, I've been struggling with red plants since I started trying to get them to work. I use chihiros RGB 60 and it's at 50% intensity with the red being slightly more intense. I also dose 1ml of seachem flourish with 2ml seachem potassium during water changes which are done once a week. My total hra lost all of its leaves and started growing green leaves at its top but the roots didn't grow even after 3 months.My experience with ludwigia sp red which is now is that the plants seem to be turning more green than red at the tops. My substrate is tropica. What do you recommend I should do?

Are you using any of the blue leds? Love ur tank.

I'm trying the leaner dosing and my plants are looking redder! And my algae is getting a bit better but not really diatoms and staghorn.

im a noob to keeping plants in my aquarium, i have been watching youtube to learn more about this. i have seen a few where they mention that weekly water changes to help the plants grow better or faster. but they dont explain why. if my water parameters are good why is it necessary to do a 50% change? i have been using liquid fertilizer to nourish the plants as well as root tabs when i change the water it seems like i would be losing some of that liquid fertilizer.right? what am i missing? anyone? anyone?

Hey Filipe, I'm desperate to save my plants, new tank (now on 6th day been doing daily changes), with invitro plants (TC). Using ADA amazonia. I know it leeches tons of ammonia so I'm doing daily water changes 50%, unfortunately didn't find the research on pre-cycling tank before planting, so now I'm trying to save them. Would you recommend any of the following or another solution you may have: 1. x2 daily water changes once in morning once in evening 2. doubling down on stabiliy/nutrafin cycle to create even more healthy bacteria to kill ammonia 3. taking them out of the tank, not sure where I can store them 4. adding iron or micronutrients 5. stop ammo (haven't heard much apparently neutralizes ammonia). I'm praying to the plant gods LOL.

Hi, Very informative and interesting video... it's very much helpful...But i have a question...Along with red plants I do have Ferns and Anubias..How they can tolerate intense light? They are getting burned... Do we have any solution for this...

What is your ramping times in that tank?

Olá gosto muito de seus vídeos, porem poderiam ser em português ou adicionar legendas. Parabéns pelo canal ✌️

I'm from Singapore. I really enjoyed all your videos. And I love the beautiful tank you have with all the red plants. Incredible. Can I stop dosing nitrogen and only have nitrate from the livestock waste instead? Also why is my Rotala H'ra growing sideways towards the substrates instead of growing straight up? Appreciate your help here. Thank you.

Sir light brand,model and Watts
