Aquascape Tutorial Step by Step 90cm Planted Aquarium

[@Darebakk]

when the planting was finished, i was like ah, okay, this will look fine.. what the plants had done in less than 2 months just left me speachless!

[@peterwinstonaldredge6927]

I was getting worried that there would be no space or water left for fish but, then when I saw the finished scape, I was BLOWN AWAY! Whoever set up this scape is a true artiste! Good on you!

[@Cookie87820]

Dave… what an amesome gent he is!

[@dayankkumarasinghe]

I cannot believe this!!! 3 weeks growth and 6 week growth just made me dropped my jaws... wow !!!

[@curlyt8899]

So beautiful, like an underwater woodland. The variety, shape, scale and colours of the planting are magical. You have a beautiful eye for detail.

[@theBioHouse]

I love how the aquascape turned out. Adding those fine details such as the twigs and branches certainly made the aquascape much more interesting and natural. Great job!!

[@generalbazworth9912]

100% the small pieces at the end really finished it off! Beautiful work 👌

[@MyFishTanks-nf8dg]

A great design, and so much work involved... plants so spotless and algae free... hat off

[@breakingbrad5461]

Probably the best aquascape I've seen yet

[@thuydao8945]

You just showed us how to create Heaven on earth! Thank you.

[@myzri3557]

I love the fact that you guys aren't afraid to show that you mix substrate products. The scape turned out nice, I really like the path and false paths with MC instead of sand. Not sure I like the added twigs, or maybe there are just too many

[@AquariumGardensAquascaping]

Thanks! 🙏

What a beautiful creation! Im a beginner in this field and i wish to learn more from you. I wish i have your creativity. Thanks for this wonderful video. God bless.

Simply amazing. Wow I can stare at it all day. I'm gonna try one soon. Thanks for sharing

[@stoneysscapes7544]

Great from start to finish Dave , to me your skills @ planning your scapes are IMO World class ! All your setups that are on here or George Farmers channel never show signs that it's time to reset. Whatever you do ?? I wish I knew 😂 . If you were @ Interzoo then I can't wait to see all the TROPICA scapes .... 💚💙

[@AquariumGardensAquascaping]

Thank you for the kind words! 😊 🙏

Saw this in person last week, looked fantastic! Thanks for the advice too!

This channel need a weekly update... can't get enough !

[@ashurgeorge4604]

The Hydrocotyle is my favorite. It really brings interest to merge the foreground with mid-ground. EXCELLENT CHOICE~!

[@condorX2]

I feel like the whole planted aquarium thing is just one big marketing scheme, like introducing to smoking in high school. After a lot research, I ditch the cookie cutter aquascape and go bare bottom. Save $ on substrates and live plants. The pros of going bare bottom with simple Aquaponics setup. My fishes finished all their foods. The bottom of the tank stay sparky clean. My hang on household plants eliminated ammonia and algae. Water change only take a few minutes and I don't have to trim plants or gravels vacuum. A win win for me. My filter media contain 8 bio balls and 2 sponge floss (the white and blue type) Here is the sceenshots of my tank. imgur.com/gallery/201V8IU Any suggestions for my tiny self cleaning tank? I lol'd at one of the guppy staring at my background photo. "You can make this hobby as easy or difficult, as cheap or expensive as you want. -bmrigs

[@juscallmej]

@@condorX2 think how much money you can save if you just don't buy an aquarium , you can just watch videos on youtube isnt that fun??. you can save on fish, water, fake decorations, time. i'm being sarcastic by the way.

[@condorX2]

@@juscallmej Heh. I do both. I build a self cleaning aquarium, where I don't have to do anything. Then I look for planted aquarium videos to watch on my old CRT TV. I would ask the video uploader how much it would cost them to put all those together and they mostly reply "over a few thousands". Here is my Aquaponics self cleaning tank. It cost me only $ 80 3 months in and not a single poop. I made that for my mom. The fishes have a better place than there were before in a brown stinky bowl. Here a simple home make video. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jamogGuHfbxskMU How about you stranger? What's your story?

[@TruTxn82]

@@condorX2 personally whether bare bottom works or not, to me it looks horrible and unnatural. I’ve always felt that way even with Saltwater. Sure there can be pros, but I’d rather spend the time and money to maintain a beautiful tank, bc at the end of the day it’s a hobby. The “work” you put into it should be enjoyable. That’s why we do it. Cheers

[@condorX2]

@@TruTxn82 Well you need to get creative with bare bottom. I use those transparent tiny suction cups to hold my plants underwater. The reasons I did that is because I hate gravel vac. The other reason is for experiment. I wanna see how many uneaten foods get drops down and I'll know much I should put the next time. My final reason to see how effective is my self cleaning filter would work for my specic tank. The level of water flow need to be perfect. If the current is to strong, the water will pushed the poop away. This is why people have so much poop in their bare bottom, but I masters it. The other important thing many missed is that rocks and other obstacles will blocked the poop from moving. My fishes help clean the poops by pushing it with their mouths without a wave maker. I'm constantly testing new build to get that perfect setting. That's the fun part because I'm not using cookie cutter like everyone else.

[@robertfletcher3421]

Exiting to see a new video from AG. This looks so nice. Let's hope it will not be too long before we can visit again. I agree that Special Ingredients are essential for a good tank setup.

[@petertankg]

this setup is really nice 👍👍👍 I am just wondering the purpose of placing so many dragon stones in the background whereby the plants are going to cover all of them as I am sourcing for ideas for my net project 🙏

[@WorldAquariumSingapore]

nice super and do you add anti chlorine and nitrifying bacteria solutions for your new tank?

[@JordanTait95]

Wow that was an absolutely amazing scape one of the best I think I’ve ever seen 😍👌

[@Agnus78]

Very well made, beautiful scape. Not sure about using those tiny roots in the front - i'd consider adding them on the rear for additional perspective. Planting would be a bit easier with pre-sprinkled soil but you managed doing it without it. Anyway, very enjoyable effect!

[@aver4ge_gam3r37]

I request an aquarium! I think it would be an AWESOME aquascape if you were to create sort of a volcano in the center or corner of a large square tank, and use only red plants (or plants that grow to BE red) , wood that looks red or orange, and lots of red and orange and yellow rocks placed about the tank. The setup in this video is SO beautiful!

Excellent video and beautiful aquascape mate, thanks for sharing I really enjoyed it.

[@brianwong9565]

The aquascaping tutorial you made is super inspiring. Pretty magical 'scape. The technique of starting the foundation of the elevated corners with volcanic mineral, does that serve a specific ecological or mechanical function? Similarly, adding the power sand as a second layer, was the for function or style? Would it have been deleterious to have built up the whole foundation and substrate with just aquasoil? Sorry for the ignorant questions, but I am still learning the aquascaping hobby. Looking forward to watching more creations from you!

[@mohamadasrul7021]

Amazing... Long time no see your updated video dave.. Nice thank you.. From malaysia

[@grey_77]

It looks beautiful. What tree did you get these smaller twigs from at the end of the movie?

[@raven69600]

Absolutely amazing! Does the depth of the substrate make a difference for growth? I’ve got about 2” but my plants are still turning opaque, like they are dying... I’ve used iron drops ( aquarium plant) and it doesn’t seem to be working. Any advice??

Buongiorno, splendido aquascape! Vorrei riprodurre una tecnica similare nel mio 200L, sto acquistando tutte le tipologie di fondo utilizzate in questo video. Volevo chiedere, utilizzando questi prodotti, ci possono essere effetti sull’acqua? Ci sono valori che possono subire variazioni e che richiedano particolari accorgimenti? La piantumazione con Micranthenum Monte Carlo ha bisogno di ulteriori fertilizzanti in colonna? Grazie mille!

[@ArjanvsTheWorld]

Superb video . Thanks for sharing

[@loveisallwehave]

Very beautiful aquascape. One possible improvement in the video could be if you include more information on the plants (how tall they get, wether they can come out of the surface, the lighting and co2 conditions, etc) apart from the botanical names of course. This may make your video more beginner-friendly.
