Nice selection, I do wonder out of curiosity, does your home suffer from damp issues with all that warm water?

[@brianmedeiros417]

Mr George what kind of trident is this regular or mini?

[@deantruebody1522]

Just what the doctor ordered. Thanks George. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

This scape has really shaped up well👍♥️♥️♥️ I looks even more stunning after u added the stem plants

[@terrywilliams5810]

Afternoon George, this beautiful aquascape is an inspiration to us all. Very relaxing and natural. I love those asian rummynose tetra, their colours really pop. Lovely to see the family enjoying all your hard work too. Stay safe mate.

[@marypaigeflynn4512]

I can just imagine standing there gazing at this scape and taking the beauty in and watching your beautiful fish! ❤️ just taking the time to discover each part of it! It is spectacular! A work of art! Thank you for sharing. Stay safe and well! 🙏❤️✌️🐟🐠🌿🌱

Could you list out all the plants in this scape. Particularly the foreground and midground

Great tank George! Love your videos! Greetings from Greece! :)

[@anoob.backer]

This is a great format, please do these often as well. Please also do some sessions to compare the impact of lights & how it affects plants etc.

[@egoranonymous3223]

I've spent Corona Virus shopping for aquarium cabinets. They are SO much nicer (and cheaper) on your side of the pond. George, thanks so much for this video! Most of the plants that I was going to track down, one by one, are here. Really, really beautiful.

Beautiful aquascape view

[@mikeinca3762]

Great video George! Just love the Aquascaper 1200! i have followed through the journey and to see how amazing it has turned out is a great accomplishment! Love the cinematic videos you put up, they really set the ambiance. Tough time right now but it always a pleasure to see your work, watch and listen to the many videos you have done. I started aquascaping over a year now and i have been inspired by your work since day one when i had the idea of getting into aguascaping. I THANK YOU for that! Be safe and be healthy my friend.

[@GeorgeFarmerStudios]

Thanks Mike. I always appreciate your comments, thanks so much and take care

[@jeanettewilliamson8442]

your aquascapes always look amazing, I took time last night to look at my aquascape and do some maintenance and enjoy just watching the fish and shrimp.

[@stevenguenther1088]

Definitely taken a cue from you and am enjoying my two aquariums more! Even brought my office tank home to maintain, tweak and enjoy. Great tank George, any video is good one 😉

[@ShawnHineidi]

The 1200 is so lush. Ahh the crypts... All the animals look happy. Thanks for the update George and you stay healthy as well. The cinematic with the voice over is cool and b.t.w.. I had a feeling the hydrocotyle would end up in there😁 noticed you fell for that plant in a setup video for a client a few videos back.👍🌿👍🌿👍

[@GeorgeFarmerStudios]

Thanks Vinnie!

[@joannecummins5265]

love the tank, it looks wonderful and those reds.....hope you are ok? Cant wait to see what you'll do with the other tanks. Stay safe....

[@GeorgeFarmerStudios]

Thanks Joanne. Take care

[@ianmulcrone3090]

As an aspie (look up aspergers syndrum if curious) and with anxiety and depression i completely agree that aquariums are relaxing and peaceful when life gets ontop of you, its relaxing to remember that both in your tank and out there in nature there are just shrimp grazing away on algee, fish just happily swiming along in currents, water, everywhere just flowing, the peacefulness and serenity of it all is unparalelled. Love your videos, thank you 👍

[@profmoriarty5113]

Wonderful aquarium George 😍.

[@philcarlino6942]

Absolutely loved this video, George. I recently re-scaped my tank as well. Perfect timing before all this stuff started to happen and I’ve been stuck at home. I find myself sitting by the tank every night for a few hours watching the fish. More types of videos like these. Highly relaxing and therapeutic. Cheers

[@GeorgeFarmerStudios]

Thanks Philip take care

What a magnificent tank also the cinematic was really nice. You are a real insperation to us aquarists. Just wandering what size clear tubing you using for your Lilly pipes?

Great video George, you're right I find watching my fish and just looking at my aquarium very therapeutic. You mentioned a while ago a possible Discus tank is that still happening. Keep up the great work. Thanks.

[@allaboumohamed]

Looks amazing . Love it

[@matthijs4434]

I love it! Would you consider making these videos in 1440p or even 4K? It's a bit pixel-y on my screen :(

[@GeorgeFarmerStudios]

I need to save up for a better camera and a more powerful computer to process the better camera. Unfortunately it’s very expensive.

[@matthijs4434]

@@GeorgeFarmerStudios That makes a lot of sense. The footage is phenomenal regardless.

[@SRenner4100]

Amazing layout. Mounting my first "island" layout soon. This one is a nice inspiration!

Could we have an update on the malawis? That’s a lovely scape and tank :)

[@mikecheng8331]

I remember there used to be Siamese Algae Eater? They are really helpful in minizing algae.

[@77slate]

Nice scape, love the stocking choice too. Any chance of going a collab video with MD Fish Tanks or a follow up tour of his new studio??

i love it so much and i love those beautiful apistos ♡

[@Gaaraape]

I agree that you should replace the carpet with a different plant. Personally, I find the leaves to be too large. The question is what to replace it with... BTW, that Apistogramma looks fantastic

[@anthonymeekings1652]

Outstanding video, how long does a bottle of Co2 last on this setup and what size bottle?

[@GeorgeFarmerStudios]

About 4 months - 3kg

[@mildhug9645]

👍👍👍What is the GH and KH of the water in this aquarium?

[@hugosorensen7464]

Lileopsis braziliensis as a replacement for the carpet?

Did the apistogramma eat the shrimp ?

George, my plants have some holes on the leaves. im not dosing CO2. I user flourish as fertilizer. what should be the problem?

[@Matija58479]

How do you care for java fern? I have a problem with melting under high light ! Give me some advice. Thanks!

[@GeorgeFarmerStudios]

More CO2 and circulation

[@DHSplate]

Hi George, you mentioned often the therapeutic effects of taking care if your tank. I could not agree more with you, as a doctor in these busy times working on my tank when I’m home takes off a lot of pressure and creates a sense of calmness. I was thinking of using a reverse osmotic water system. Have you done a video of this in the passed? Our water is moderately hard with 66.8mg/l calcium. I use TNC complete as my fertiliser, would I need to use something else besides this eg. a mineral supplement? If so what would you recommend me? Many thanks Michael

[@GeorgeFarmerStudios]

Hi Michael, firstly thank you for the comments. I’m pleased to hear you can use this wonderful hobby to help relax after what must be a particularly stressful time. I don’t personally use RO water. Even with my hard water I find that if I stick to easier plants and provide good CO2, light and nutrients then they do well. If you do decide to use it you will need to re-mineralise. Seachem Equilibrium has a good reputation. Then add your TNC as appropriate. All the best and I hope you can stay well during this challenging time.

[@sachaholt6023]

Are you still using the 12 hour siesta lighting?

[@Cakizmaj]

@@GeorgeFarmerStudios Personally, I would go with Canon 1dx mk 2 or 3 (TheCineScaper KZbin videos for reference). Or Sony a7 III (Swhiskey KZbin videos reference), as a more budget friendly option. Either option with some Sigma lenses. That aside, thanks for these videos, you and the aqua scaping community are making these trying times much easier to bear. Really appreciate it. :)
