[@karlopopovic810]

Another awesome work 😊

[@zoltanbalogh1646]

Thanks! :D

[@kotso84]

This is awesome! Absolute brilliant! Art at its finest! Do you seal the the whole Building or do you leave it like that? 👍👍

[@zoltanbalogh1646]

Hey! Thank you! I dont use any seals but if u prefer u can use seal on it!

[@kellahampel8094]

This is absolutely stunning!! Mind blowing work 👏🏼 What brand tile adhesive do you use? Is it type 1?

[@zoltanbalogh1646]

Hey! Thank you! :D Its called Baumit Basic! dont know which type. :(

[@UrbanVenom_]

Absolutely amazing work bro. What are you using for the final texture? Is it clay or some type of cement?

[@zoltanbalogh1646]

Thank you! :D Baumit Basic tile adhesive!

[@Geekolizard]

Hi. Do you use seal or varnish after painting with acrylic? I'm afraid chipping might happen because of water/heat from the tank.

[@zoltanbalogh1646]

Thank you! No i dont, never happend! :D

[@catherinevangass4927]

Beautiful!!! 💜One question, what do you make it waterproof with? Some lizards need high humidity, the dryscape enclosures it won't matter so much? Yes, the commentary helped me understand better thank you!🙌👌

[@zoltanbalogh1646]

Its not waterproof because its dont need to be. :D U can use it underwater too so dont matter how high the humidity.

[@catherinevangass4927]

@@zoltanbalogh1646 Thank you!🙌

[@dingus42]

does the tinfoil and wire degrade after the structure is left in water? Really cool technique by the way! :)

[@zoltanbalogh1646]

Obviously dont use corroding stuff in high humidity environments... :P Thank you by the way! :D

[@mkuc6951]

Zoltan, you are great. We need to get you a better camera because your work is worth showing to more people! Do you soak the grout in water or anything before plants or fish?

[@zoltanbalogh1646]

Hey! Thank you! :D Its a Redmi 8 which i have to record... :D For fishes or any water animals i always presoaking minimum 1 week but for safety its better for 2-3 week with water changes 2-3 times/week.

[@Emakura]

Help me please, for the mix you used polystyrene balls, Adhesive tile powder, then what? Looks like a 3rd thing was added?

[@zoltanbalogh1646]

Water? :D

[@guigouin]

Hi there! thx for your work! very nice!! do you seal it at one point?

[@zoltanbalogh1646]

Thank you! no its dont need!

[@yvesbouillet7727]

Hello, great job. I try to replicate the same for a background décor in my room. I can't seem to find the texture. Tile glue does not give the same result. I'm French and I'm having a hard time translating what you're really using as glue. Sorry I use google translate I hope you understand. Congratulations

Great video! I like how you commented on everything. what brand of tile adhesive do you use? could you link it or show it in the next video please

[@zoltanbalogh1646]

Thank you! Practically it is in the video if u seen it better... :D Its a Baumit Basic.

[@Kaikoura26]

Could you link the tile adhesive? If I dont have it over here I could at least research what is inside of it. That would be super helpful please and thank you. Also, You did this method for a full on aquarium? Could we see a video of one that's been established with this method? I showed your video to a lot of my friends and they really don't believe this worked. I would love for you to prove them wrong. LOL! Cheers!!

[@zoltanbalogh1646]

Baumit basic the name of the adhesive. Basicly cement and sand. Yeah expect the tinfoil + the wires. :D

[@emilykaldahl1232]

I need to know what tile adhesive is okay to use that i can get in america because im dying to try this 😅

[@zoltanbalogh1646]

i used Baumit Basic for this one. If its help! :D

[@Machinepriest]

Very nice video and background! You are a credit to the hobby. ❤️ I'm thinking about using this technique on a Exo-Terra styrofoam background to make it look more interesting and realistic, but I could use some tips of you have any. How would you go about making a removable background that can stand on its own?

[@zoltanbalogh1646]

Very same as i do the not removable. :D polystyrene base and the adhesive on the top.

[@user-gn7ts4wc6c]

what kind of glue for foil and blocks?

[@zoltanbalogh1646]

Silicon

[@boanoah6362]

I gotta ask, what is the tile adhesive you use? I looked on Amazon but all I really saw was plastic looking glues or silicone? Do you add rock dust to it or something to have that clay-like stone look? Is it water potable? I want to make a background for my Pacman Frog with a waterfall feature and I just want to be sure it's safe is all, thank you for the video too! Your work is amazing, loved the fossil one with the Ankylosaur.

[@zoltanbalogh1646]

Thank you! Baumit Basic the brand. I did not add anything. U can use it with water!

[@Emakura]

@@zoltanbalogh1646 any idea what the U.S. equivalent would be? Trying to find something that works :(

[@zoltanbalogh1646]

@@Emakura Cement + sand do the same. :D
