Epic Tour of the Most Interesting Fish Store - Unimati

I visit Unimati in Denmark and give an epic tour of this most interesting aquarium fish store that I've ever visited. Featuring 160 aquariums that have been running for years with the filters and gravel that have never been cleaned!
Look out for an aquascaping workshop coming soon - 17th March 2020.

Oh my God, that store is amazing. Thank you for not editing it down too a ten minute video, this store really deserves the time you gave it.

[@essef.]

and let us see more!

[@GeorgeFarmerStudios]

Cheers Darryl

[@Unimati]

Thank you so much Darryl :)

[@ultimatefishkeeping]

I completely agree with you! It simply took my breath away!

[@ultimatefishkeeping]

15:24 720 Liters is be 190 Gallons according to the App Converter I use.

[@evan_rifkind]

Hi George! I really appreciate when you convert measurements into US customary units. Liter-Gallon, CM-Inches. Etc. Makes me feel included from the other side of the pond. Thanks!

[@GeorgeFarmerStudios]

You’re welcome, Evan! Thanks for the feedback - I really appreciate it. 😊

[@jeevanjacob4102]

Be careful, the British (Imperial) gallon is not the same as the US gallon.

[@RRR-dv4hk]

Blows away most stores in the states. The care and clean is amazing.

[@bech808]

Unimati is the absolute best fish store in Scandinavia. Here in Denmark people rather travel from the opposite part of the country to buy their fish and aquariums at Unimati instead of going to the local store. And the reason for that is simple. Ole and the other guys are top professionals and will always provide you with every little detail you need to know when setting up a certain aquarium or when adding a certain fish to you aquarium.

[@aquamind9996]

My jaw dropped when you walked into the hardscape room. You are so lucky to have that much selection readily available

[@ultimatefishkeeping]

I almost forgot to mention, when you took us viewers through to the back I was impressed by how well organized the Hardscape Section is it looked fantastic. At First I thought you went from a Fish Store straight into a Museum. Absolutely Amazing. Thank you very much George for sharing that spectacular place with us.

[@bigbosha5270]

George, your videos are always so inspirational, and I wanted to say thank you from the United States for sharing our hobby like this. Im grateful I have the ability to see my fellow hobbyists at work, 4000 miles across the Atlantic ocean. Thanks for that!

[@GeorgeFarmerStudios]

Thanks 🙏

[@oliverrussell8477]

That Background filtration is unbelievable.

[@theunderdawg]

Where can I buy it at

[@nathanwilliams415]

I only found it on the Danish website in the description. Under RockZolid. Very expensive around $1200 US. Wish they had those here. Might be better off attempting to make your own though. Let me know if anyone finds a seller in U.S.

[@theunderdawg]

@@nathanwilliams415 yes I agree ✅

[@MoZZa1788]

Be easy as to make it yourself with any moulded background

[@TheBello2009]

Really the best filtration system you can get and safe because everything is inside the tank

[@pwhit59]

Now I have worked in aquarium store and I got to say if we had something like this in the states it would hit a homerun!

[@zjenji]

Wisdom can come in many forms. It’s fascinating to hear his filtration ideas.

[@billsherman6129]

Some if his filters are based on the Hamburg Mattenfilter. Search for it and enjoy!

[@omnifox6308]

fish stores are made magic by passionate owners this guy is one of those wish him all the success in the world thank you for the long in depth video George loved it so wholesome

I love this store! It's a 4 hour drive from where I live, and yet I still go there to browse on weekends. Super fun and helpful staff as well.

[@kasperkjrsgaard1447]

My favourite fish store here in DK. Ole is a raving nutcase. 😊👌 One of the kindest guys imaginable, but a complete looney. 😂👌 It doesn’t really matter if there’s 150 miles and a ferry from my home to the temple. It’s worth the trip.

[@Unimati]

... and proud of being a looney. Ha ha!

[@stanbe1974]

Phenomenal store. Wish fish stores in the U.S. displayed their stock like that.

[@stephenmanning3978]

I wish we had shops with hardscape selections like that here in the states...

[@dtt719]

Stephen Scapes There are some. Aquarium Design Store in Houston has a huge selection. What was really cool is that they also have plastic panels you can put into a large sandbox to match the dimensions of your tank at home and use that to plan out your hardscape. If you ever check it out just know that customers are allowed into their warehouse in the back as well filled with even more hardscape.

[@galinakovalenko2729]

I work in the industry on the saltwater side. I can honestly say that this is the clever shop I have seen. Very impressive! Thank you for the tour.

[@janinebonser9933]

A true reflection of a passionate hobbyist. Mind blowing store.

[@mikeandemoutdoors1344]

That is by far the most impressive fish shop I have ever seen. Thank you for the tour!

[@snerg64]

Wow love it, everything looks so natural and stunning. This store has so much goodies to offer yet it is not crammed with stuff piling on top of each other. Love the style, way to go I think. Thank you George for introducing us to this beautiful gem.

[@alangilbert8627]

I've always liked the root back grounds but have been put off because of the story's of detritus build up behind them but the idea of turning it into the filter is genius, I'll definitely be doing this for my dream discus tank when I move house and I think a trip to this store will be in order

[@karthikreddy920]

Honestly one of the best shop I have ever seen. It would be my dream come true to visit that place

[@nanoplay9032]

Look at those rocks and driftwoods👀 and his fish look really healthy and active👍👍

[@niva8043]

Love the store! Lots of character. It's very unusal to see that every tank are scaped. Most fish stores only have fish in them.

[@rogeretiennedelacruz3000]

I was one of the Unimati stores when I visited Denmark in 2019. I was simply blown away by the sheer variety of livestock and hardscape.

[@boebender]

Genius background fiberglass and epoxy filtration integration! Hats off and three cheers for Mr. Ole!!!!! No filter cleaning for three years and counting?!! Wow!! This is exactly why I love watching your invaluable content. Thanks!!!

[@mikeinca3762]

Great tour George! Love the place! Being a big Cichlid fan, I just loved all the different kinds the place had. The tanks are amazing considering no filters cleaned or gravel cleaned! I could spend hours in there between the fish tanks, hardscapes and accessories! Thank you again George for showing us this awesome place! Never Forget Nimrod! RIP!

[@a2thek914]

DAMN! I couldn't believe seeing your name under the Unimati video title. Great that you visited this store. Ole is a REALLY experienced shop owner.

[@2574mcu]

I like the red hooks. Back in the 70s I had silver dollars and Angelfish. I also like hatchet fish. I'm too old and my health is poor to have fish. Watching these videos is the next best thing.

[@GeorgeFarmerStudios]

Thanks for the feedback. Sorry for your poor health but pleased you can enjoy the videos

[@klcpca]

Beautiful tanks!!! LOVED the betta sororities-- soooo colorful and the tanks set them off wonderfully!!! The amount of hardscape he had.... WOW!!

[@TheBudgetAquarist]

Amazing wood selection. I read that Azalea roots are actually what we call spider-wood for aquariums....planning to buy dead or dying Azaleas from my local big box stores and landscape stores and see if I can't clean and dry a nice selection of interesting wood for tanks.

[@JRosa-do9ki]

Amazing store, like many wish we had a store with the many hardscape options like this one. Also the fish tanks look amazing. Great video.

[@truckcampinglife]

This has to be the best store I have ever seen. Simply beautiful.

Wow, dreamland ...would love to visit Denmark to visit Unimati , live in USA...Very Impressive...kudos...best tanks I have seen...🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻👍👍👍👍👍😁

[@bjmclennan]

Such a caring store, I love seeing all the fish in habitats that actually have some effort put into the scapes, even though it's only temporary

[@garyhopper819]

Fantastic store amazing diverse selection shining the way the aquarium hobby should be going 🤓

[@HeRo-qd6tk]

WOW!!! Beautiful store visit and good ideas and philosophy from the owner

[@marymccannon5610]

Next time you visit Ole, please ask him to consider upgrading his website, so English could be an option. And if you need an on-the-road assistant, I am available. Well, only when you visit Ole, again. :-)

[@railmitra5821]

Brilliant fish room it's Soo good and I enjoy a lot watching this video...

Vieja are such a beautiful fish. Like Uaru Vieja are also under appreciated in the hobby.

[@stephenburke8581]

Wow that’s an amazing store, love the backgrounds and the filtration system. UK stores need to step TF up! 😂

[@Nomorepain57]

This store is awesome, I could spend hours here...

[@sadeepmihiranga6958]

This store is so clean. And i think Ole created exact natural habitat for his favorite fish the Sri Lankan Tiger Loach. They can be found in water stream around my village with very sandy substrate with some plants like vallisneria.

[@Les-OZZYTHEOSCAR]

Thanks for sharing this visit with us George, what an amazing place........ and not a salty to be seen !!!!!

[@aaronstephens1598]

WOW! That is the coolest fish/aquascape store I’ve ever seen!!! I wish we had a place like that in Michigan!

[@Cichlids23]

WOW, Amazing store! Fantastic fish, plants, tanks and backgrounds in there....Love the 10' tank!!

[@kiki_soccer_1199]

This store is absolutely phenomenal! WOW! I even went so far as to map it compared to where my mom and I are supposed to be staying when we finally can get to Germany. (Were supposed to go May 9-23rd but at least one spot closed through end of May so fingers crossed we can slide everything to June or September instead) ..... sadly it appears to be an 8 hour drive one way. Guess we'll have to plan a special trip for another year. Lol

[@kiki_soccer_1199]

Those green neons are EPIC!!!!

Going from hobby to business well done your fish room is what every fish buyer wants to see clean tanks healthy fish your filtration on your tanks never seen it before looks excellent im gonna order one keep up the great work and well done to you filmer for highlighting this place

[@manolingz]

everything is beautiful in this shop, even his algae is beautiful.

[@Myndi78]

Its such a great store. I live about 40minutes away, and there is local fishstores here - but when possible I would allways pick Unimati. They have everything you need and alot of things you didnt know you needed 😆👌 Its an expensive place to visit but only because you leave with much more than you had planned 🤗

[@magstheonlyone]

Not long at all, thanks for taking the time to record all that you could of this store, even with only one aquascape. Great video!

[@HUKIT.]

Wow that was and amazing store, definitely don’t see stuff like that here in the states. The heterospilus and bocourti were stunning.

[@ultimatefishkeeping]

I love those Vieja and Red Hook Silver Dollars. The Silver Dollar are from the same family as Piranha.

[@lenasem8626]

God those fishes are lucky as hell compared to the ones in other fish stores🙏

[@turnipsucks6416]

What an amazing shop. Not only does owner love his job & hobby...he shares the knowledge. Other than 2 Local Fish/Reptile shops, only big box in my area of Cali. And with the exception of the one shop who is predominantly a reptile based shop, nothing like this exists in my area. Such a pleasure to watch. Thanks George!

[@jonstfrancis]

Beautiful collection of aquaria and fish, really inspiring! Love how healthy everything looks too.

[@williammcdowell6257]

Really good George for a simple fish shop visit video. Wish I had seen this before setting up my tank - really fancy the RockZolid background with internal filtration system perhaps with CO2 diffusion and heater in the back void. I'm surprised Juwel aquariums haven't been beating a path to this business to commercially link up to offer a more aesthetically pleasing alternative to their corner internal filters. Lots of lovely healthy fish. Snakeskin barbs especially pleasing. Plants in the tank reminded me of shops of my childhood in the 1960s and 1970s

[@sasab.1661]

Juwel is smart. They make a small fortune from people bying and replace filter pads and sponges...

[@danielbarbee7712]

I like that type of filter. Always been a fan of undergravel with biomedia in the pipes

[@moetrymwm7807]

Exquisite selection of aquariums and aquascapes. The female beta tanks are out of this world!

[@rnaodmletetr]

Very nice! Glad you put effort into the tank decor, fish shops around here are just barren small tanks, turned sideways to fit more on a shelf.

[@wotrulke5868]

totally amazing fish store, beautiful well kept tanks they obviously care very much for the fish 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Fit a longer hose to the pump and drain it that way.

Love this shop. Any shop that has Najas grass in it's tanks is my kind of shop!

[@StanTheObserver-lo8rx]

I missed the name..could not understand,what's that Crypt. in that first tank of moss? I liked his choice of various sands..it wasn't so fine that plants roots would suffocate. Color was nice. Speaking of color,unlike hobbyists with multiple tanks,he's using lighting that is really pleasing to the eye in tank after tank. To me,this hobby is visual..and you got to use lighting that brings out the colors of the fish and plants as he has.

[@kevinj8568]

The crypt, I think they said it was Undulata Red

[@StanTheObserver-lo8rx]

@@kevinj8568 Thanks!

[@sabildgaard]

I think it is the same sand in all the tanks - just different light spectrum from the leds...

Hi Folks! I am so happy to live in the area! Unimati is the best store what I ever wisited, and I am from Hungary so I so something in Budapest too😉 Ole and all the stuffs are very helpfull and have a lot of knowledge about fish. The aquascaping section is new and has a lot of cool driftwoods, stones, soil etc. I love the scapers-dojo as well! My tank is a 62 by 36 what appeared at the end of the video. I can recommend this place to visit from my hearts deepest corner! And at last: May the fish be with you!

[@StanTheObserver-lo8rx]

How funny things have improved..about 15-20 years ago I bought 4 panels of plastic molded background painted like the rock in the video. Well,in just a few weeks,all that paint and highlighting was removed by a few big Plecos I had. They were painted..but not coated and I'm not even sure they used real waterproof paint. I still use them..only instead of looking like sandstone or granite,they look like limestone,white..with dark areas that stayed dark for whatever reason,helping the 3-d effect.

[@frankygoestocanada]

My lord! What a beautifull store! What a huge store! It's the ali baba cave of all fish store I've seen yet! If I have the chance to go to Danemark one day, from Canada, that will defenitly be a place I will put on my list of "things to see"! Love your videos George! Great job!
