The Worst Algae You Can Get in Your Planted Tank!!! ?

Some footage is a bit "off"/"blurry", my apologies, as I'm still figuring out how my new Sony ZV-E10 camera works!

This is my 'Boreal' forest aquascape in a Fluval Chi 5 Gallon Aquarium. I drew inspiration from the Boreal Forest of Canada, my home country! It tank has only been up for 2 months and I can't wait to see how it will develop in the future! This cinematic video covers the creation of one of my best aquascapes I've ever done! It's a PR aquascape and I love it! Sticks and branches were collected from a lake in Saskatchewan!
Be on the look out for a behind the scenes on how I made this aquascape!

Using the API GH & KH Test Kit can be pretty confusing. With this video guide, you can learn how to properly use the API GH & KH Test Kit!
GH and KH are values that aquarists tend to neglect, but actually play an important role in an aquarium ecosystem! GH and KH are values that should be tested when diagnosing any tank issues.
*This is a reupload. There was some important information that I missed. Please use specific Calcium and Magnesium test kits rather than solely relying on GH testing to determine those two values!
