Thanks so much, Curtis! It's always possible this won't work out, but hopefully it'll at least be a good learning experience! Thanks for watching and commenting, I appreciate it and wish you a happy new year! 😊

[@chrisandjaneonnarrowboatpo3917]

Thank you and thank you very much for watching! Happy new year 😊🎉

[@Greg.is.a.bot.]

Neat new plants! For whatever reason, I really like the vesuvius sword. Cool update video.

[@TarasTankFriends]

That's because it's a little weird, and you like weird things-- like me! 😜 Thanks for watching hon ❤

[@SandyDoughty]

I look forward to watch the the progress. I am sure it will be beautiful!

[@TarasTankFriends]

Thanks for your vote of confidence Sandy! I hope so, if it isn't it at least will hopefully be a good learning experience. Thanks so much for watching and commenting, I appreciate it and wish you a happy new year! 😊

[@pattys_aquatics]

Beautiful plants Tara! I’m excited to see how they grow in. 😁👍

[@TarasTankFriends]

Thanks so much, Patty, me too! 😂🤞 Thanks for watching and commenting, I really appreciate it! Have a nice weekend 😊

[@jackanddan]

totally awesome!! If you've never seen the movie The Rocker with Rainn Wilson the name of the band is Vesuvius lol! It's one of our all time favorites of course being a drummer we are a bit biased but as soon as you said Vesuvius we thought of it hahaha. Good luck with this lovely project and have a happy happy holiday season!! And if you've never seen The Rocker we highly recommend it!!

[@TarasTankFriends]

Thanks Dan! Yeah I have seen that, it was several years ago though, so I didn't remember the name of the band. I'll have to try to watch it again, I really like Rainn Wilson. I watched galaxy quest not that long ago, and even though he only has one line in it, it's very HIM, lol. Thanks for watching and commenting, I really appreciate it and hope you have a happy new year! 😊🎉

[@Terboven-Aquaristik]

very nice Tara 💯👍

[@TarasTankFriends]

Thank you very much, Matthias, and thanks for watching, I appreciate it! 😊

[@kens3dandaquatics]

I have a large amount of different rotalas if you are interested. I grow a ton of plants. I'll suggest to get rid of the pearl weed as it will overtake the tank unless you keep on it religiously

[@TarasTankFriends]

Thank you for your kind offer, I will definitely keep that in mind. Have wanted to try rotala bossii, but am currently out of budget for plants 😅. Pearl weed is actually one of my favorite plants! I really like working with and trimming plants, part of my wanting to set this up is so that I can do that more often 🙂. Thanks so much for watching and commenting, I really appreciate it! 😊

[@Gilsfishroom]

G'day Your Highness, nice quote from the wise old man. I have some tiny bucephalandra in a bucket waiting to go into a new scape, so it looks like i will have something to look forward to for the next 8 years. Hope you are feeling better mate.

[@TarasTankFriends]

Yes you do! 😀 I had some "green wavy" a couple years ago and it didn't really do well for me. Was hard for me to justify the cost of trying any more but I got the first bit of kedagang trading some of my other plants and I'm so glad I did, I'm quite enamored with it! Thanks for the well wishes and watching and commenting, I really appreciate it and hope you have a good new year! 😊

[@tiktokanimals-funnyandcute]

Nice new plants . Great job .Keep up the good work! Have a blessed day.

[@TarasTankFriends]

Thank you and thank you very much for watching! 😊

[@delfagepiala1223]

watching here my Friend, beautiful

[@TarasTankFriends]

Thanks so much for watching and commenting! 😊

[@stubbsaquatics6080]

Great video... Now I have to look up what Dutch scape is . I have a good idea now As you mentioned no hard scape in it . It's always great to have a nursery tank to pull plants from I love that little flowering crypt Excellent video. Full view

[@TarasTankFriends]

Thanks Chris! I don't know what to do about the sticks, the roots are really grown into them, I was going to sew them to plastic canvas as that's not technically wood or rocks 😋. The flower was a super nice surprise for me! I've only bloomed one other crypt before and accidentally pulled it off because I thought it was a dead leaf 🤦‍♀️😅. I do think occasionally of setting up maybe a 20 long for plants only, maybe in the future. Thanks so much for watching and commenting, I really appreciate it! 😊

[@larrydsAquatics]

Hi Tara liking the setup feel better 😊

[@TarasTankFriends]

Thanks so much for the well wishes, and for watching and commenting, Larry, I really appreciate it! Hope you have a happy new year! 😊🎉

[@fishismyhobbyofficial]

hello friend, happy new year, like 17

[@TarasTankFriends]

Thank you and thanks so much for watching and commenting, I really appreciate it! I hope you are having a nice weekend and have a great new year, too! 😊🎉

[@DanielKeepingFish]

Will need to tune in eight years from now to see how your mound goes. 😂 Will certainly be checking in on the regular to see how your Dutch scape progresses. Sure it will be ace. Sorry to hear you've not been feeling well, hope you're feeling better very soon.

[@TarasTankFriends]

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it'll only take 7.8 years 😂. I don't know, it might be a little too advanced for me yet, and I may not have luck with all the new plants, but I want to try. Will keep you updated. Thank you for the well wishes, watching and commenting, I really appreciate it! 😊

[@DanielKeepingFish]

@TarasTankFriends nah you got this. You got the patience and attention to detail. Sure you'll nail it.

[@TarasTankFriends]

@@DanielKeepingFish You're very kind, Daniel 🤗. Hope you have a happy new year! 🎉

Looks great

[@TarasTankFriends]

Thank you and thanks for watching, i appreciate it! 😊

[@IndoorEcosystem]

Have a great New Year Tara 😊May it be a plant melt free one!

[@TarasTankFriends]

Thank you, I hope so! I actually got a small shipment of more today, which look a bit chlorotic. Not sure if it's from a deficiency or lack of light during shipping, but I hope I can green them up. 🤞 Thanks for watching and commenting, I really appreciate it and hope you have a nice weekend and a great new year, too! 🙂🎉

[@IndoorEcosystem]

@@TarasTankFriends Fingers crossed the new ones end up powering along! 🙂 Be a nice way to start the NY

[@aquariumdelirium]

Beautiful Tara Is it called Dutch style because it’s supposed to look like rows of tulips? 🌷 Too advanced for my plant 🪴 skill level

[@TarasTankFriends]

I read that it first became popular in the Netherlands, but it certainly could resemble rows of different types of tulips I suppose! It might be too advanced for me too yet, never know until I try it though 🙂. Thank you so much Mal for watching and commenting, I appreciate it! 😊

[@TarasTankFriends]

@@pelhamsaquatics Thanks so much, Jeff! Marble seems to just like attention, too. He's like that with Greg and Greg doesn't feed him. I am kind of obsessed with that plant atm, we'll all just have to pretend that the sticks aren't there 😂. I absolutely love your saying about this being a journey, I hope you don't mind that I used it. I hope you have a very happy new year also and thanks for watching and commenting, I really appreciate it! 😊

[@aquariumdelirium]

M ? That’s my secret lol your giving away the M and horseshoe 😂
