I'm too used to americans being super obnoxious about Christianity. Makes me forget that many religious people are just normal people.

[@alwalsted]

The story and theme of this aquarium illustrates the verse from Matthew beautifully! Everlasting life is a gift at the top of the narrow road. But look at how wide and well travelled the other path is. I’m loving you guys more and more! Thank you for sharing your faith and living it out for the world to see.

Thank you for this beautiful video! I love that you use your gift to spread the word of God!

[@GreenAquaShop]

In a subtle way though, hopefully.

[@shadowprice-t8c]

Yes, very beautifully and tastefully. I've just started doing videos of my scapes. You and Tommy as well as all your guests inspire me so much. I'm a nurse and scaping is therapy for me! I am submerged designz studio. I didn't make it a link on purpose. I'm not trolling for views, I'm just praising your talent and devotion to our Lord. At this time in history, we need more beautiful nature in the world. That is why I started sharing. God bless you all in the new year.@@GreenAquaShop

[@Davidova]

I love watching your videos again after a while. The impression is enhanced by inspiration. excellent work with stone

[@Ankescapes]

There's no such thing as "too much philosophy" - and there's no better feeling than to climb on a mountain and to see the view from above as a reward for the way up. Love the symbolism, and love the scape. I don't know if I would have kept the Spiralis Tiger on the right to "close" the easy path 😊

[@GreenAquaShop]

It would have destroyed the scale for sure. Thanks for supporting me to share some background views and beliefs. Merry Christmas.

[@danjensen7477]

Looks good. Also, it looks like the Holy Land! Merry Christmas to all of you!

[@GreenAquaShop]

Oh, I never thought of that, but yes, it does a bit. Merry Christmas, Dan.

[@IndoorEcosystem]

Merry Christmas from Poland! Great video :D You made the right choice for scale by removing the crypt in the back right-hand corner as well. It looks a lot better in the final without it.

[@GreenAquaShop]

Thanks for the vote. Merry Christmas to you too!

[@geekroomlife5850]

Awesome aquarium and wonderful message. In a world where you say one thing and you get judged forever, I am glad you say your peace. Merry Christmas

[@GreenAquaShop]

Yes, people judge too soon, it is a fact. Who cares though, really? LOL. Merry Christmas.

[@cjmori23]

really enjoyed this video and loved the symbolism you did with it great job.

[@GreenAquaShop]

Thanks, so glad to read these positive comments under the video. Yeah, symbolism is very important to us, people, regardless of our beliefs.

[@vnrodor6431]

Wow, Balazs! I really respect your sincerity about your Christian faith and how you used it as an object lesson in aquascaping. No doubt your success is because as a Christian you can appreciate and love more the perfect design by God in every plant and aquatic creature. Let me share with you one of my favorite quotes from the book called Steps to Christ by E.G. White that I think applies to your aquascaping talent: "The poet and the naturalist have many things to say about nature, but it is the Christian who enjoys the beauty of the earth with the highest appreciation, because he recognizes his Father's handiwork and perceives His love in flower and shrub and tree. No one can fully appreciate the significance of hill and vale, river and sea, who does not look upon them as an expression of God's love to man.

[@GreenAquaShop]

Amen. He is right, thanks for the book recommendation, will look into it. Merry Christmas.

[@dennisvanopstal7360]

14:13 This brave shrimp doesnt care about the symbolism: " i will walk wherever i want! " 😂

[@GreenAquaShop]

LOL, no wonder they will not go to Heaven, according to the Bible. :)

[@aleksandardajko2232]

Balazs, it's really hard to describe what have you done! Those who are trying to walk on narrow path and looking and fighting for a life... those can understand. And the story about paths between life and death, you brought it so simply in an inimitable masterpiece. God bless you! ❤ Marry Christmas Green Aqua

[@GreenAquaShop]

Beautiful aquarium! Even more beautiful the message! You can't love this hobby and not ask yourself who created life with its varied expression and the positive stimuli that come with it, such as serenity, goodness and respect for others and nature. Obviously the narrow road is challenging, but the result is a riot of happiness. I would make an aquarium inspired by what awaits us at the end of the narrow street: Isaiah 2:3,4 and Isaiah 11:6-9...A hug.❤

I am also a Protestant pastor and love this scape. I never thought you would ever do a scape inspired by a Bible verse. Your scape fits Matthew 7:13,14 so well: „Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.“ ‭

Thank you, God bless you, brother.

[@appleseedontheroad2296]

Merry Christmas! Beautiful scape and love the inspiration…did you use super glue for the sand in the paths? curious about this technique…I’m assuming it’s to keep everything in place and prevent aqua soil from surfacing?

[@GreenAquaShop]

Yes, one point is the aqua soil, the other point is to keep the sand steep.

[@matthewsmith6169]

It's a beautiful looking scrap, but, you designed all the paths but you can really only see the 1 main path. By adding more open paths gives the viewer more scape to look at and takes the view points away from a main section. Other than that beautiful scape.

[@GreenAquaShop]

I agree with your point, this could have been done in a wider / bigger aquarium for sure, here - in this 60 - it is difficult.

[@fischverruckt7321]

Why did u take the Crypto out? That would be an amazing eyespot. And it would look more wild.

[@GreenAquaShop]

It would have destroyed the sense of scale.

[@detlefh.7090]

Even Iggy Pop had been building it (well, something different) brick by brick a long time ago. 😂 I am having increasingly issues with these paths leading from front to back which can be seen from scapers all around the world...also, nature does not choose to use so many different plant species in such small places/spaces. Likewise I prefer less plant variety and a much broader look in general much better. But that's just me and my preference. Merry Christmas to you all. ❤

[@GreenAquaShop]

I agree with you, I should no more simple scapes, but Tommy monopolizes the style. :) I am a big fan of simple iwagumis, actually. That's how I started this hobby.
