In each planted aquarium, it is necessary to periodically shorten the plants, cut off long branches and long stems, trim the ground cover, remove excess bushes and shoots, or as aquarists say - weed. At the same time, we give shape to bush plants and form the landscape we need, or make an interesting scape. An unkempt aquarium looks unaesthetic, and the plants in it begin to experience discomfort. This can be determined by the appearance of certain external signs or symptoms: plants do not grow, disappear, wither, dots and spots appear on the leaves, turning into holes, the leaves turn yellow, die, fall off and dissolve. Light and lighting in the aquarium also play a huge role for the healthy appearance of plants. Therefore, the topic of lighting can confidently be called topic No. 1 in aquaristics, because all other parameters in the aquarium, such as fertilization, supply of carbon dioxide CO2, etc., are selected for lighting. For nutrition (feeding), fertilizers for aquarium plants are used, such as: macrofertilizers, microfertilizers, macroelements, microelements, nitrate, phosphate, nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, iron, calcium, magnesium. Using high-quality fertilizers for aquarium plants, you will protect your aquarium from many problems, and yourself from the hassle of solving them. But still, it is light that is the main condition for the growth and development of plants in the aquarium. It is light that gives plants energy for the synthesis and absorption of nutrients they need for nutrition. With insufficient, weak lighting, plants lose color, stop growing, and sometimes stop growing altogether. Therefore, there should be enough light in the aquarium, but not too much. With excessive lighting, algae such as xenococcus, diatoms, brown algae, black beard, Vietnamese, green beard, deer antler, filamentous algae, spirogyra, chlorella, euglena, cladophora, green dust, blue-green algae, edogonium, green fluff, rhizoclonium and others may appear in the aquarium. If this happens, the plant needs to be treated, disinfected, decontaminated. For this, algodez, baktodez, algaecide, aquacrystal from the company AQUABIOS, hydrogen peroxide, saydex, and other preparations are used. Also, with a strong light flux, the walls and glass of the aquarium quickly become overgrown, and the soil, driftwood, stones, and other decorations become covered with a green coating, which is very difficult to clean. Often, with excessive lighting, the water in the aquarium begins to bloom, becomes green, cloudy, and it is quite difficult to get rid of the bloom of water in the aquarium, and it can take days or even weeks. And the methods used do not always give results, and in some cases it is necessary to use aquarium chemistry, or completely restart the aquarium. Also, for aquarium plants, the spectrum (temperature) of the lamps used plays an important role. This is especially true for red plants, because if there is not enough red spectrum in the light flux, such plants will not be able to gain a bright color. In addition, light affects the visual perception of the aquarium and everything in it. With the right lighting, aquarium fish and plants look brighter, their colors become more saturated, and fish such as Neons, Rasboras, Danios, Guppies, Swordtails, Mollies, Platies and Angelfish literally begin to glow.
