After guest hosting on an internet radio show, I now have my own show:
On the first episode of the Aqua Botanic radio show, we will be talking about soil in the substrate. Guests are Glenn McCreedy, moderator of plantedtank.net, Chris Brown, (ukamikazu) and Betty Harris, (Dataguru)
Glenn will be talking about his experience with mineralized soil, Chris will be talking about his new soil substrate recipe, and Betty will be talking about the Walstad method.
The show is live and open to anyone to call in with questions or join the conversation. The shows are also recorded as podcasts.
The date is Jan. 28, saturday, 10 am pacific time, and every saturday after that at the same time
This week, Going wild with Ted Judy and PT's Laura Lee!
Ted is a writer for TFH and took a trip to Africa which he will tell us about, and Laura Lee will tell us about her trip to South America...plants, fish, and all that good stuff!
Laura, you were fantastic! That was tons of fun. One of my favorite shows. Don't miss "Laura gone wild". !!!
You can still listen to the recorded podcast
This coming saturday, the discussion is about foreground plants and we try and tackle all the carpeting and foreground plants out there and how to grow them.
Chad is joining me tomorrow to talk about foreground plants. All you plant nerds and wannabe plant nerds, tune in, call in and join the fun. We will be talking about which plants have worked for us and why. More people who call in, the more ground we can cover...no pun intended!
This coming saturday, Joshua Wiegert joins us to talk about north American fish and plants and we will talk about how to set up a biotope. Joshua is a writer for Aquarium Fish International magazine. Call in and join us live, or listen later....we are now on ITunes!
Next week the 17th, Tom Barr is on to talk about C02, April 7th is Stan Sung.
This Saturday, Tom Barr joins us live and the show is open to live callers with questions, toll free! The subject is C02 in the aquarium, but this gentleman who is considered by most to be the most knowledgable plant guru on the planet is willing to take questions about anything.
Tom created the EI method, has his own web site and newsletter called The Barr Report, and has been a pioneer in this hobby. Don't miss this opportunity to speak with a legend!
Great radio show. I have a question that Tom brought up in the last show. He talked about turning his pH probe into a co2 meter by using a semipermeable membrane with 4dkh solution that was permeable to co2 and not water. Could you put a kordon breather bag and fill it up with 4dkh solution and put your pH probe in there then have an instant co2 meter?
This Saturday, March 31st 10 am pacific time, Chris Brown returns to talk about his Humus soil substrate recipe in detail for the whole hour! If you are interested in soil substrates, this is a new method Chris has been developing that should be easy to work with and have great results. Call in live to ask Chris questions or email your questions.
I have some special give aways for callers this week!
Stan Sung, TFH writer, is on today in 30 minutes! Stan will be talking about loaches and his collecting trips to China, Thailand and Burma. Call in and ask him questions! Free prizes to every caller!
Learn all about Cryptocorynes with guest Art G. the founder of APC, 10 am today pacific time, 1pm east coast time. Call in live, toll free with questions
Hey! I won't be able to listen in this time around (then again, I never really have the oppurunity. I even forgot when I was supposed to be on )
Can you touch on the subject of wabi-kusa? Is there another name for it? Because apparently its just a brand name, like calling a tissue and Kleenex. I'm seriously confused because on one hand, its ADA's sole idea and they are the only ones that make it, but on the other its a complete style and ADA can't say our creativity is trademarked.
Love the show Robert. I'd like to hear a guest speak about the Dutch tank and all that it entails. I have an aspiring Dutch tank, but so much emphasis is placed on the Nature Aquarium or Iwagumi styles now I feel the Dutch style is being phased out. In popularity at least.
