My Planted Aquarium

Almost three years na ang hobby na ito but I still feel that there is so much more to learn. My planted aquarium is beautiful  (at least for me) but it is not in any way perfect or even close sa mga ibang setup ng other hobbyists.

Honestly, I don't even know the names of each plant inside my tank, konti lang ang alam kong pangalan. Yun mga isda sa aquarium ko medyo alam ko, I have a clown loach, two black mollies, two tiger barbs, flying fox, otocinclus, albino algae eater and some neon tetras. Aside from these creatures, meron din akong isang masipag na snail.



Ang problem ko lang talaga ay yun isang type ng algae, ayaw pansinin nung mga algae eaters ko. I already tried using an algae killer but  did not help in getting rid of it.  Siguro I just have to get rid of the plants na affected. Sayang nga lang pero I don't want the other plants to suffer.

I hope makakita ako ng solution sa internet.

Home Gardening - Another New Hobby


Tumatanda na talaga ako, kung anu-ano na ang naiisip kong paglibangan. I started buying and taking care of plants at home. I already have oregano, rosemary, tarragon, a few types of chilli pepper, parlsey and some small fruit-bearing plants like calamansi.

I also bought some seeds last Saturday, tapos meron na rin akong pots and two bags of  soilless potting mix from Cartimar

Sana umunlad ang hobby na ito kahit maliit lang yun space sa likod ng bahay namin

My First Attempt at Macro Photography

I took this picture very early in the morning...

 

I am not an expert, I'm just a beginner who wants to practice and learn some new skills with an inexpensive camera. I'll be posting and uploading more pictures as I learn. You may click on the image to enlarge it.
