A Path to the Finished Aquarium

水族之路

Stem plants come in various shapes of leaves and colors, and they can be enjoyed in a variety of combinations. Stem plants are used in this layout taking their individual characteristics into consideration and avoiding placing the same leaf shapes and colors side-by-side.

茎类植物拥有多样的叶形和颜色，通过组合能有良好效果。茎类植物以其独特的特点用于这个水族箱布局，但要防止平行种植同样的叶形和颜色的植物。

Trimming is an essential part of a layout with stem plants. The stem plants were trimmed three times before this aquascape was completed, keeping in mind the balance with fast-growing Glossostigma and Riccia. The stem plants, which were somewhat sparse initially, increased their volumes with repeated trimming and rendered denseness to the entire aquascape. Their leaves became smaller and provided a sense of depth.

修剪是布局茎类植物的基础部分。在此水族箱成景前它们经过了三次修建。留意生长快速的矮珍珠（Glossostigma）和鹿角苔（Riccia）的平衡。茎类植物多少有些稀疏，通过反复的修建来增加它们的数量以使水族箱变得稠密。它们的叶子（通过修剪）变得更小，并为水族箱提供了景深。

If you glance at changes in a layout over a period of time, you will notice that aquatic plants are growing steadily although you hardly notice it ordinarily. Stem plants particularly grow fast as compared to ferns and mosses. The aquascape reached its completion approximately two and a half months after planting, when the volumes of stem plants and the undergrowth balanced out

如果你留意一段时间内的变化，你会注意到植物生长是有规律的。茎类植物与蕨类和莫斯相比生长较快。此水族箱在种植植物后两个半月，当茎类植物的数量和下层（前景）达到了平衡后成景。

 May 31st, 2005 (7th day)

A week from planting. Although half of the tank water was changed daily, the water still looked somewhat cloudy. The growth of stem plants was still sparse.

2005.5.31（7天）

种植后一星期。每天换水族箱内一半的水，水依然看起来有些浑浊。茎类植物依然很稀疏。

 

 June 8th, 2005 (15th day)

15 days has passed since planting. The water has become clear. Glossostigma and Echinodorus tenellus have developed runners and Willow Moss on driftwood is growing steadily.

2005.6.8（15天）

种植15天后，水边的清澈。矮珍珠和针叶皇冠已经开始蔓延，柳条Moss在沉木上稳步生长。

 

 June 15th, 2005 (22nd day)

The first trimming on the 22nd day from planting. The stem plants planted at the same time to the same height were beginning to show a difference in their growth depending on their types. Trimming became necessary to keep their growth in balance.

2005.6.15（22天）

第一次修剪在种植后22天，茎类植物在同时修剪到同样高度会展现出不同的生长形态。修剪是保持生长的必要行为

 June 15th, 2005 (after trimming)

Stem plants on the left and right sides are trimmed as if following a flowing line. The low growing Echinodorus tenellus, Glossostigma and Riccia are trimmed as well.

2005.6.15（修剪后）

茎类植物在左侧和右侧被修建成一条线。矮珍珠、鹿角苔和针叶皇冠也依次修建

 June 22nd, 2005 (29th day)

A week has passed since the first trimming. Stem plants are already developing new shoots. Bolbitis and Microsorum are also growing, albeit very little.

2005.5.22（29天）

自第一次修剪后一星期过去了.茎类植物已经发出新芽。蕨类和铁皇冠已经开始生长，尽管还十分的微少。

 July 6th, 2005 (43rd day)

Five different types of fish: Neon Tetra, Scarlet Gem, Aplocheilichthys macrophthalmus, Red Phantom Tetra, and Inpaichthys kerri, are added taking the aquascape and the swimming space into consideration.

2005.6.6（43天）

加入五种不同的鱼类宝莲灯, Scarlet Gem, Aplocheilichthys macrophthalmus, Red Phantom Tetra, and Inpaichthys kerri .以增加水族景观并考虑鱼类游动的区域。

 July 13th, 2005 (50th day)

Stem plants are growing densely and Cryptocoryne is beginning to develop its submersed leaves. Wood Tight used for attaching plants such as Bolbitis is removed after confirming that plants have grown attached.

2005.6.13（50天）

茎类植物已经生长密集，椒草已近开始长出水下叶。用于在沉木上绑例如蕨类的绑线在确认植物已经依附后去除。

 July 19th, 2005 (56th day)

Approximately one month has passed since the first trimming. The stem plants are almost reaching the water surface. Another trimming is necessary to shape the stem plant bushes. The low growing plants are not

2005.6.19（56天）

第一次修剪后大约一个月了，茎类水草已经张到了水面。其他修剪也是必要的为了侧枝的造型。生长较慢的植物则不修剪。

July 19th, 2005 (after trimming)

The stem plants are trimmed along the driftwood at the location somewhat higher than the first trimming. Old Bolbitis leaves and the leaves with algae growing on them are cut off as well.

2005.6.19（修剪后）

茎类植物依着沉木的位置修剪，并略微高于第一次修剪。修剪在叶子上张有藻类的老蕨类叶

 

 July 27th, 2005 (64th day)

Approximately one week after the 2nd trimming. New shoots are developing well and the leaves are getting smaller than the size at the initial planting time with repeated trimming.

2005.6.27（64天）

大约第二次修剪后两星期，新的芽已经长出通过修剪叶子变得比最初种植时更小。

 Other advantages of stem plants are that they are sturdy, easy to grow, and fast growing. However, these are also the shortcomings of stem plants as well. As we delight in their growth, they soon reach the water surface and fill up the empty spaces. To maintain an aquascape just like the image we have in mind, frequent trimming becomes necessary. With repeated trimming, stem plant bushes become beautiful and the aquascape appears more finished.

成景

茎类植物的有时是他们强健，易于生长，生长迅速。然而茎类植物依然有缺点。正如我们希望的生长，他们快速的达到水面并填满了所有的空间。保持我们已经构想好的水族箱通过规律的修建是非常必要的。通过多次修剪茎类植物变的美丽，水族造景便完成了
