Wild ROYAL Discus Nature Aquarium of 200x60x70cm at Twinstar EU

[@FAAOAquascaping]

All details about this aquascape are in the video's description. 😉

[@priyankardas2668]

Still we will ask our own share of questions 😂

[@NoNo-ce8xb]

how many tetras are in the tank ? i didnt find that info

[@iamthanatos1986]

Dear Felipe, you were influencial in my aquascaping journey. I'll never forget you. Salamat!

[@shinemendwoor]

My favourite discus tank on KZbin. I love that there is so much room for the fish to swim around and I love the beautiful thick glass.

[@simonetonini2538]

Glad to see you healthy and happy to see your work again on the channel. This tank is a perfect balance between the plants and the empty space for the fish to swim and to be enjoyed.

[@FAAOAquascaping]

Thanks Simone. Things are finally getting back to normal, including my health situation. I will bring more content very soon.

[@huangjin800]

This is the best discus landscape and Discus I have seen.

[@CEROTOPHRYS]

What a fabulous set-up. Beautiful Discus.

[@waterlover]

I live this setup , the layout is superb. What beautiful discus fish

[@rlon36]

You are definitely my favorite aquascaper

[@mandyminshull2351]

Lovely to see you back Filipe. Fabulous scape and fish look stunning

[@rikscichlidaddiction25]

I gotta say thi is one of the nicest set ups I've have ever seen. Good job.

[@sofishticated289]

Very nice fish selection and great hard scape composition. A lot of people over estimate the size of Discus and by the way they rarely grow 20+cm. If these Discus were over 20cm long (mouth to tail), three fish above each other would be enough to reach from the sand to the water surface. Just imagine how huge these fish would look. The Discus in this tank are already very beautifull but will become even more beautyfull when they are well fed and don't look so skinny any more. Enjoy them!

[@andrekiesswetter2518]

So nice also to see your GBR babies included in this beautiful aquarium.

[@surjobanerjee]

Lovely! One of the best discus tanks Ive ever seen! Wow

Wild discus type are my favorite kind. This aquascape really suits them. I love it. Fantastic job as always, Filipe.

[@PedroMoraisPedroMorais3322]

Love it!!! Absolutely gorgeous! The layout, the discus blueish hues with the cardinals against that black, it's just amazing! All that inside a room, one puff and a tea... Pure relaxation!

[@FAAOAquascaping]

They are far away from what they can become. For a fish that is for about 4h in a tank, they were already very good. 😉

[@PedroMoraisPedroMorais3322]

No doubt, they were already showing great potential 🙂

[@jonwebb5241]

Glad to see you! This layout is beautiful. Just my favorite style- bold, simple, natural. Plenty of swimming room for the big guys.

[@FAAOAquascaping]

Thanks Jon. This one was created for the livestock and not the opposite. Plants still need to grow and fill a bit some spaces and get volume, but you can have an idea... Will stay simple and full of free scape for them.

[@darrenderousse4804]

So glad you’re back Felipe! This is stunning! I love you way you used negative space! That and the black background make the big school of cardinal tetras pop! Can’t wait to see this mature! World class!!

[@FAAOAquascaping]

Black background is more because of the Discus, they don't like bright colors in the back. Of course, the black will enhance all the colors 😉

@@FAAOAquascaping Hi, yes you're right sorry, all data are here ;-) Setup is sponsored by Twinstar: lights good, but CO2 enough for such tank volume? How do you compromise between (wild) discus and plants? Temperature, conductivity.. do you prepare with Osmose water? For such big tank, do you know these CO2 reactor from Germany? jdaquatec.de/UNSERE-PRODUKTE/

Now I remember you. I saw you in another channel with some oriental guy who was giving a seminar on setting up tanks. I think he is an aqua scape champion. Good to see you shy.

[@FAAOAquascaping]

I'm not shy at all, probably I was a bit tired by traveling, setting the tank and have this done fast to move to another maintenances. This tank is not close to my home town, so I spend more time traveling than scaping it. Recording something in these conditions is always tough, sometimes we aren't in the mood to do it. ;-)

[@priyankardas2668]

Extremely well made video. Lots of cinematic clips and music makes it a treat to watch. Discuss looks great and are schooling nicely. I was finally glad to see the backside of planting where you had used small echinodorus and juncus repens together to create a nice carpeting effect. The last plant in your description, which is 'Schismatoglottis prietoi' would take few months of practice for me to pronounce correctly 😂 One small question though...The Helanthium Bolivianum Magdelenensis is densely planted by you. I think it shoots runners and fills up the tank. Do we need to plant heavily from start or will it gradually grow dense over time? 'Obrigado mestre, Você é o melhor' ( Hope I got that right 😁)

[@FAAOAquascaping]

To pronounce that I will need a few weeks... It is even worse that 'magdalenensis' 😅 (that isn't difficult, I just had a blackout 😂)

[@priyankardas2668]

@@FAAOAquascaping I had searched the Magdelenensis plant in my country. Finally found out the 'echinodorus quadricostatus' is the other name...so I don't worry much now. But with the new plant you used, I guess it will break my teeth to pronounce it...I'll get some anubias instead 😂

[@FAAOAquascaping]

That one is though... I still can't pronounce it.

[@FAAOAquascaping]

I think close to 100 of each. It's a 200x60x70cm tank, plenty of space for them for schooling and swim together in big group. Discus will make them group and look even more spectacular.

Yes, those rams are from my own breeding. They are amazing and they got in at same time as Discus. They will have even better colors, they aren't full adapt yet (rams and Discus)

Filipe, this is the most beautiful discus tank in the world... I would be happy to have mine half such nice... I have tried to built mine tank inspired with yours one, and I hope, you dont mind... The tank is ready now and I got a fear, the higher temperature will kill my plants... Do you have some news about this one, if it runs in this perfect condition after a year? Thanks and build another such perfect tanks, please.

[@FAAOAquascaping]

From what the customer told me, the tank is running well. The temperature on it of of 27°C, max 27.5°C and all plants are doing really well, they were selected based on that temperature. If you run your tank with Discus from 27-27,5C is perfect for both.

[@josecarlosarroyo3480]

An excellent video, like all yours. I have 2 questions. What foam do you use to seal the rocks and roots? How is the support of the Twinstar 120B?

[@FAAOAquascaping]

I have used OASE Foamfix and I haven't used the brackets of the Twinstar 120B, they are just placed in the side protection glass and middle one, 2+2

[@josecarlosarroyo3480]

​@@FAAOAquascaping Yes, I saw that you had removed the brackets. And I had the impression that they rest on the protection glass. Are they just resting? can't move? Those lights are excellent if we know where to use them

Hi sir! Very nice work. Appreciate your work! What kind of filtration do you use on that tank? Do you use oxygen? Can you make us a tour on what pumps you use please?

[@FAAOAquascaping]

In this thank we have 2 Oase biomaster 850 thermo filter and two diffusers, one for CO2 (just a little bit is used) during photoperiod and when lights are off it's used oxygen. Will be difficult to give you a tour in this one because the aquarium is not so close to my hometown... More than 350km.

[@ladislavcech935]

Hello! Beautifull tank! I would like to ask, I have 300l aquarium and I will build it for Discus. Do you recomended CO2 inside? Or CO2 is not recomended together with discus? Thank you very much! :)

Matte is better to avoid reflections. Shiny one usually works like a mirror, so be careful if you use it.
