Hydrocotyle Jungle | Step-by-Step Hi-Tech Aquascape Tutorial | Inspired By ADA

In this video, I replicate one of my all time favourite aquascapes; 'Green Heaven' by Daisuke Inoue from ADA!

This layout makes use of several species of Hydrocotyle to achieve a 'floating' feeling and to create dramatic areas of light and shadow. The background is filled out with Limnophila Sessiliflora and Vallisneria to create a lush green backdrop for the scape.

All of the hardscape used in this layout was collected locally.

For livestock, I have used Red Cherry Shrimp (Neocaridina Davidii) and Neon Tetras (Paracheirodon innesi) to create contrast against the bright green plants.

Please sit back, relax and enjoy the video!

Cheers,
