"Welcome to the beautiful European world of aquascaping." I laughed! We Americans love to be different. I think you did a very good job with the scape. The reddish rock contrasts well with the bright green of the plants (and fish). For me, this style of Iwagumi is not for me. My favorite Iwagumi are the ones with very large rocks with competing structure with a lot of tension. Everyone has their personal taste. I still really enjoy this creation, and you did a wonderful job.

First, I'd like to say I'm really thankfull for what you, Balázs (and the rest of Green Aqua Team), do for us, Aquascaping fans world wide. Personally, besides the weekly video release, every time I'm passing through a bad moment I come to this channel to get some relief. And for that I'm forever greatful! Secondly, I liked the scape! Simple and beautiful! But I got a question, Balázs, about the two main stone lines of the scape: Have you noticed the depth sensation achieved by the fact that the first line is stronger, thicker than the second one? I wonder if you did it intentionally or not. Cheers from Brazil. (Professor Klebber) P.S: the only improvement I would do: tilt the stones of the first main line a little bit foward, to have more shadows in the tank.

Some odd questions? For a rimless tank measuring 1200L x 500W x 600H mm, how thick should the glass be? Should the bottom be thicker? Is it best if the bottom is made of Plexiglass or Lucite rather than glass? Love your videos. I never thought I'd get so interested in aquascapes. I've even purchased stuff from you (and I live in Sydney, Australia).
@GreenAquaShop2 жыл бұрын
Oh, how cool, Neil, thanks for the support. Well, I would not mix glass with plexi... I would just simply do it with opti-white (clear) glass. The thicker the heavier it will be but the front and back would not bend that much. A minimum of 10-12mm glass thickness is preferable. (The price also goes up with the thickness, and you'll need good quality silicone).

The OLD tank was MUCH better because it was not completely linear and it had CHARACTER. Also, I LOVED the little compact plants, like a shaving brush, sticking out above the scape that were left out of the new one which made the tank very unique. For the new tank, you should flatten out the center rock leveling it like in the old scape so that all the rocks are not pointing the EXACT same direction which is boring.

It's a very pretty composition, others can hope to recreate. I do think you're missing something by not including (what I will guess was) Riccia in the original version. You're missing the contrasting color and texture of the dark green which popped, due to the abundance of the lighter colored mote carlo. The current version has to many of the same hue, so it looks washed out. But, it is a pretty composition. And overall, I'm personally a fan of easier to execute compositions like this one. It may not win a competion, but it's also approachable.

Even though, I love Green 💚 Aqua and all the folk's behind it; I just hate iwagumi! Not, that I do not appreciate the artistic layout of stones and grasses, as Balazs has masterfully demonstrated; it is a barren scene to me. No cover or hiding places for captive, easily stressed fish. No where to rest from the strong overhead lighting. As a scenic, underwater garden; they are beautiful if you are into that type of terrain. As a small, tropical fish habitat; not so much. There, I got that stick out of my craw!! Likewise, I love my underwater gardens, but first; they are my fishes home.
@GreenAquaShop2 жыл бұрын
Yeah, not all styles are for every scaper. I do understand your concerns, however, some fish are used to swimming in open spaces, in fact, they prefer open spaces. That is not a source of stress for them - like bad water quality would, for example.
