If my shirtless appearances due to the heat offends you I apologise. I never want to offend anyone. 💚❤️ I want to also say what lovely clients Shiraz and Pam were. I have made friends for life and I’m deeply grateful. 🙏 And also thanks to my wonderful friend, Tai Strietman. Such a pleasure to work and have fun with. ❤ If you enjoy this video please share the love. 💚✨

[@taylorhickman84]

I prefer to do tank maintenance in my undies, but lack the personality and abs for youtube, so you wont be seeing that anytime soon.

[@hellooomarc2750]

I wear next to nothing doing maintenance. Servicing 8 tanks can work up a sweat. Probably don't look as fit as you doing it though. Looking good George!

Supreme Genetics 💪

[@josvan10hoven45]

Normally my wife doesn’t find videos about aquariums interesting but this video she liked, I just don't understand why?🧐😇🤣

[@nasigoreng5193]

Cuz George is shirtless ma bro lol

[@oakmaiden2133]

Cuz it started with shopping :)

[@MissChelle]

Um, same reason I love it more then usual lol🇦🇺❤️

[@karkoor]

😂😂😂😂

[@philcarlino6942]

Really great scape, I can't wait to see it once it's mature. My favorite scapes of yours was your apisto blackwater tank; it got me into that side of the hobby, the most recent large scape at Aquarium Gardens I consider a masterpiece, and the last iteration of your aquascaper tank before switching it out for the Oase (with the pearl gouramis, also got me into those fish). Every George tank is special, those just have a special place in my heart. Also as a personal aside, I know many people have complicated feelings about the monarchy, and I know you fought in the war so perhaps your feelings are even more complicated, but I do extend my most heartfelt condolences to you, George, and to all those in mourning following the passing of the Queen. I do hope that England can come together in unity and love. Take care.

[@mikeinca3762]

Wow! What a setup! The aquarium is HUGE! Love the design and the hardscape! I have to say it is definitely up there with one of your best and bar far the biggest! Lots of work went into this and I can not wait to see it in a moth or two! The roof top view was awesome and the Garden walk was absolutely beautiful! THANK YOU George for the video and again, great work by you, Tai and your friend!

[@GeorgeFarmerStudios]

Cheers mate

[@AquascapingLiverpool]

Definitely one of the best scapes you’ve done 👌🏼 a lot of impact from the wood and the plants grown in are going to look next level! Can’t wait for the future update! 🙌🏼

[@lakeshiamills1454]

I came for the aquascape and stayed for the abs 😅. Note to self, bigger rocks= abs and pecs like George Farmer's! I think I'm doing the aquascape thing entirely wrong since I still have a spare tire in the front and busted biscuits on the sides. All jokes aside this video makes me want a giant tank so I can do some giant aquascapes

[@ultimatefishkeeping]

Hi George. How are you Sir? That is undoubtedly the biggest and bestest scape you have done so far. It is absolutely incredible. When the plants have all grown in, there will be a good nesting ground for fry. That indoor garden is amazing. Like 725 is now up. Thankyou very much for sharing. Take care Sir. 👍🙂❤

[@taylorhickman84]

Beautiful! I wish driftwood for aquariums wasn't so expensive, that's probably >$600 worth at my LFS.

[@IsaacDS123]

i just go to a local river with a handsaw and a bathing suit. so much good stuff out there thats waiting to be taken, check local laws about doing that tho

[@darrylmoore5847]

This is not only one of your most beautiful scapes, but it is one of the most beautiful scapes that I have ever seen.

[@MichalCicheckiAqua]

Wow man. After all, this is a pool with plants and roots. I hope the ceiling will endure. In addition, brilliant dimensions and fantastic arrangement. It was a mega challenge so that the aquarium did not seem empty. It worked. It's amazing

[@Evil_Genius_888]

Impressive! And here I was thinking my new 75g project is a little bit intimidating. Personally I’d think about putting in a large school of tetra of some kind. The movement back and forth in such a large tank would be beautiful.

[@Anthony69420]

"Thank you for the tshirt" *instantly removes it* Love it lol amazing scape Foam fix looks neat

[@courtneykeeps]

Really great job with this one! I love the shapes the wood takes and on, and with pearl gouramis that'll look awesome. A big group of corydoras would look nice too, considering the intricacies of the scape.

[@GeorgeFarmerStudios]

Cheers mate! How’s 🇮🇹 😄

[@courtneykeeps]

@@GeorgeFarmerStudios I'm back now but lush, very lush!

[@bonwrentaylor2743]

All that drift wood will be requiring some serious purigen use to keep the water clear and the tank bright ! A big shoal of congo tetras, with their larger size, would look great in a tank of this size.

[@Fab84NL]

Watching this great video as I want to start with scaping. First Thought; Next time, Maybe use a laser pointer to locate the mounting holes! Keep up the great work and nice video’s

[@cyndifalk]

Really enjoyed this one and especially liked watching the progression - Electric Blue Acara would look amazing in this scape! They are gentler than most cichlids and generally friendly with each other - so cool!

[@sydneysangels]

Absolutely love it George! Really hoping to see you at Aquashella in Chicago!

[@dnbiotopes]

Beautiful scape, but my favorite one is definitely the one drom the cover of your book. I really love that one!!

[@karljoseph4766]

One of the best scape you have done George bravo 👏

[@JemuzuDatsWho]

Honestly I adore tetras and a huge school of neon tetras would look absolutely stunning in this setting!

[@marienixon148]

Tai has another cat! Wow, what a tank! And there's me, daunted by the prospect of filling my first 200L. Would love to see some Khuli Loaches in there. Can't wait for an update!

[@FLOMALS63]

Очень ждём продолжения когда аквариум будет заселён жителями. Получилось просто супер 👏

[@brianrogan4515]

Wow, absolutely stunning, great job! Looking forward to seeing a follow up video in a few weeks time when the fish are in.

[@michaelschmitz500]

My ideas for the new inhabitants: 1. ) Westafrica Tank with Kongo Tetras and Synodontis catfish or 2. Rainbowfish... or 3. Asia with Barbs ...great job, wonderful tank ! best wishes from Germany, Michael

[@olliety]

It looks amazing! I would swap harlequins for Espei though, because the colour stays much more pronounced orange. And a shoal of chocolate gouramis would cohabit well with pearl gouramis and rasboras!

[@jan123258]

Wow, epic tank. Hope the floor is reinforced 😄

[@vampgaia]

He's got a great view! And a gorgeous scape! I mourn with Great Britain. Queen Elizabeth was dignity, grace, and duty. The world is the lesser with her passing. The Queen is dead, Long live the King.

[@adammajor123]

Rummy nose or harlequin rasbora would look very nice!

[@_thesoulsjourney]

Great job George. The tank is going to look epic when grown out.

[@aquariumplantman]

That’s a huge scape, I think it’ll be epic when grown in George. Love it.

[@chelmsford6774]

Speechless, I've said Epic twice this week George both times on your videos. Very nice scape well done.

[@norbertthoens3561]

Sehr schön gestaltetes Aquarium! 👍Bin sehr gespannt auf das nächste Video von diesem Becken...😉

[@DylanRenke]

Lovely scape. It would be awesome to see hundreds of nano fish in such a large aquarium.

[@snerg64]

I was about to upgrade to 400l but now I think it is not enough. G well done for filing all that space and making the tank look busy yet composed. I am sure future updates will look epic.

[@hhk1557]

Denisoni barbs and congo tetras....and green or black neons..all in shoals.... would be nice here....

[@aquahobby1982]

Great Video As usual George .... but we definitely need follow up videos to see how plants r thriving and entire ecosystem is built. Earlier for few of ur scape we didnt get to see final outcome ( which is understandable as it is nit always feasible to get that ) . But i am eggar to see how this one shapes up

[@cinnamonoa]

Imagine if someone had a tank this big for a shrimp only tank lol, just filled with sulawesi shrimp and rabbit snails. Or bamboo, amano and crystal shrimp

[@subhankarbhattacharya2940]

George, this is very nice.. It would have been great, if you could have spent some time on the filtration and Co2 ?

[@timberry4709]

I would think that jammed into the corner like that would seriously hamper maintenance, especially in the rear, right corner.

[@jkgcank9]

You’re heading to Toronto! I heard through the grapevine that you were going to be at a certain shop in Oakville that I go to. I’m not sure if it’s allowed but I’d love to be there to meet you. I live pretty close by. I buy my plants and supplies there.

[@Paul-li9hq]

A big shoal of mature Pearl Gouramis..? That will be epic. They might appreciate a little more plant cover higher up to really bring them out at their best?

[@WillsAquarist]

Awesome George! Its a high bar but definitely one of your best. Really helped me with my current project - lots of wood and I've done not scaped like this before so thank you for your wisdom!

[@assiahinarkansas]

Absolutely love this video. Beautiful scape George!

[@AquascapingLiverpool]

Great vid mate 👌🏼 love this style of content from you 👊🏼

[@1Venger]

What are the tank dimensions of this 2000L and how the hell does an apartment floor hold up this weight? I'd love a bigger tank even my 600L 200Lx60Hx50D looks small compared to this.... Ace!

[@IsaacDS123]

modern apartments are basically all reinfocrced steel. thing could hold a swimming pool on top no problem

[@inomorethanu3244]

You have schnauzers !!!!!!!!!! Fantastic . oh and an aquascape :)

[@sherwintomas4458]

Amazing! I think its going to look so good when its grown out. Well done!

[@GilsTV]

it hasn't been seen filled with fish, boss, so it's more perfect to see ha ha ha ...

[@MissChelle]

What’s the difference between seiryu stone & millenium stone? Great job George & friends!🇦🇺❤️

[@TheNanoAquariumGuy]

Great video and another great scape!

[@hamedrummer1017]

That was an epic, epic scape! I wonder how rooted plants grow in an inert substrate?

[@Huipie81]

If you properly fertilize them they will grow just fine

[@MrSementis]

Amazing!!!

[@srihariananthakrishna1744]

This looks amazing!

[@mickshaw555]

0:10 Are they a miniature and standard scnautzers?

[@GeorgeFarmerStudios]

mini 😃

[@Snoochie-Booch]

Absolutely awesome!

[@chromakin]

extremely beautiful scape George! love the shirtless vids 😛

[@legionaquatics]

George I gotta say your in really good shape! How many days a week do you workout?

[@Rizalrdn]

Nice setup ✨

[@andrewstrathdee6154]

George shreds farmer

[@jasebrushett3705]

Looks amazing , your tempting me out of marine !!!!

[@Boogerboys1990]

glass is made on flat liquid tin kilns sometimes miles long. and water is flat and level. u can setup fish tanks from japan to america. perfectly plumb and level. but i digress. NASA

[@johnmknox]

11:31 So this is why they are out of stock on loads of different plants I wanted to buy! 😂

[@MrOneWho]

Do you have his number still ? any chance of a revisit ?

[@joshdean2376]

What's this Chippendale aquascaping?!! 😜

[@alisonphilp7497]

Amazing well done George great job mate

[@emberframe6994]

amazing scape

[@vijukomusic4235]

Amazing work really inspired (today kerala's festival "onam"

[@xentornotv1760]

Whats the estimated cost of this netire thing? tnk plants and filter and what not. Any idea?

[@matouskristek]

Absolute gem !! Great work George! :)

[@fenixangelzamo]

Amazing video we want an update :)

[@cwillox4253]

What about all that weight in the apartment? Does that have an effect?

[@GeorgeFarmerStudios]

The client had a structural engineer to ensure safety

[@SamuraiRokerolle]

but have you made sure that the floor holds up because the finished aquarium will weigh 700/900kg....

[@allahuakbarquran742]

It's all fine but you will need to wipe this deep glass regularly to waive off algae

[@girishthakur2355]

I am more eager to see this tank post 6 months

[@engdog2]

George farmers 6 pack abs on display. 😃

[@1markymark1]

Epic my friend 😁

[@BwizzleAquatics]

Nice

[@mtgtomescourer]

When will England get a cold front so George can finally put a shirt on? 😅

[@GeorgeFarmerStudios]

😛

[@TheSunIsMyDestroyer]

bro ripped like bruce lee

[@Wanfish70]

Hi..from indonesia👍✌️

[@IsaacDS123]

if you put pearl gouramis in a 2000 liter tank i feel like your completely wasting an opportunity...... I would 100000000000 percent stock it with Altums, preferably the atabapo maybe 6 of them, and then load it with unique corys with oranges, and add a school of diamonds or colombian tetras. I know the taps hard, but if you can find captive bred youll be good

[@IsaacDS123]

or even something like roseline barbs or lots of congo tetras and watch them fly around the tank idk gouramis are cool but kinda a lame 2000 liter tank fish

[@lucagalli4679]

fit bro! ahaha

[@MissChelle]

Interested to know the cost of the build, whatever it is I’m positive it’s worth it!❤️🇦🇺

[@antonlindgren1958]

How come you moved the tank? feels like the access at the back will be troublesome. Otherwise amazing video and tank 👍🏻

[@andycarter4581]

Superb.

[@subhrojyoti8000]

First

[@magwarblood]

No offence but this looks a mess 😅

[@GeorgeFarmerStudios]

The only offence here is your lack of command of the English language. No offence.

[@magwarblood]

Its all personal opinion at the end of the day I guess isn't it

[@longschlong5341]

won't the inert substrate cause a problem for the rooters and stems

[@GeorgeFarmerStudios]

No, they can get enough nutrients from liquid fertiliser.

[@longschlong5341]

@@GeorgeFarmerStudios I doubt the tank will do well, an update on the growth would be great 👍
