And now for a brief up-date;

I worked on building the "technology"
that will sink U R B A N AQUASCAPING
structures deep into the blue water.

I will be forced to build the Ario 4 'House'
again from glass cos' I found the solution
that already build not as good as I need.

Mean while at a parallel universe I share
Proto-Tipe development of an led light
for planted aquarium and hopefully it will
be ready within few weeks, we would like
(My friend and I) to think of that as a
solution that may be define by the term
U R B A N NATURAL GROW.

My other self is now working on the Aq'
cabinet and on automated water change
system that should help in maintenance.

As one can see there is more plenty
of work and I try to do my best here.





---------------------------------------------------
Continuation
---------------------------------------------------

1.

I completed the cabinet
plans and even deliver them
to an angel pro-carpenter.



2.

I completed the solution for
filling and emptying water.



3.

I ordered new LED fixture
for the rear light that will be
on the wall in order to create
'Light Table' effect at the back
of the aquarium.



4.

I completed the plants list
and gave the order to the one
plants shop that I truly trust.

‏Echinodorus Tenellus (lower part).
‏Cryptocoryne Parva (lower part).
‏Lilaeopsis Novae-Zelandiae (lower part).
‏Micranthemum Micranthemoides (lower part).
‏Crinum Calamistratum (pillars).
‏Anubias Barteri Var. Nana ('Pendulum Ball' & Petchii "Chair").



5.

I completed the fish list based
on the concept that will be called;
'Orange to Red and Vice Versa'.

Orange > Xiphophorus Hellerii / Swordtail
Red > Poecilia reticulata / Guppy / Rosa gold.



6.

Now in Progress - Ventilation solution
combined with a temperature controller.



7. Now in Progress - New U R B A N AQUASCAPING
elements that will be build again but now from glass.



8.

Enclosed Visuals.

Here in Israel the project known as
"PREGNANCY OF AN ELEPHANT"

I work on that project only at my
free time and as I write now it is
about 14 months of pregnancy.

The delivery (of a baby) is planed
to be within six weeks from now
(I.G.W) in full 'Caesarean section'.

The New Hydor Ario 4 House - Prototype 01

The house will be tested in the aquarium in order to check the bubble behavior
and if the test will be successful, the house will be coated with black quartz.

The new cabinet before painting.
















Washing and drying 45 kg of black quartz on the roof, but
there was rain so all the quartz went in to the living room.

















Clean water Ver. the first step.

I'm slightly confused as to what's going on here but totally intrigued. I also can't wait for more.
 
Welcome to TFf, globali.

Glad you are posting your scape here as well. Sorry I didn't comment earlier. I really do need a faster internet connection to view your thread. :lol: Finally there is someone as picture happy as I am!

Look forward to updates.

Glad I'm not the only one then, think it's fair to say this will be one of the most original photo threads I've ever seen :crazy:

Ladies & Gentlemans,
Dear members & friends,
Respected guests,


After 18 month of preparations in which
I had to lower my expectations to minimum
and make huge efforts expend my limits
boundaries a new aquarium was born.

Please allow me to share with you the results
of the initial set-up that includes general system
check up and very humble presentation of new
LED light fixture for planted aquarium.



Thank U for all the people that gave feedbacks and my deep apology if I missed someone.
