New Luxury Planted Tank for my 3 Years Old Betta - Aquascape Tutorial

[@fahn777]

Just to clear things up, tannins are not toxic to fish. Bettas, tetras, discus, angels, and shrimp thrive in acidic, tannic water.

[@TheCineScaper]

Yes I know that tannins are good. I don't know exactly what comes out of this wood, but the smell wasn't very good either. I find alder cones and catappa leaf much safer.

[@emihayashi7725]

Are backyard pinecones safe? How often do you re- landscape the terrarium? Annually? Biannually? Triannually? My beta lived 4 yrs (after purchase) in a filled 5 gal tank, is it sufficient? Your 10 gal tank appears to contain less than half capacity of water.

[@austinpoland4141]

@@emihayashi7725 no because they have sapp in them most likely, pine of anything isnt good for aquariums. Alder cones are different then pinecones

[@emihayashi7725]

@@austinpoland4141 Thank you 🐠

[@oftheHowl]

Shrimp do not prefer acidic water, they do best in higher pH with more minerals than tannins in the water.

[@sriscm]

The moment you bring up the plants for planting, heart fills with expectation & joy

[@serefine927]

Some info: the brown water leaking from the wood are the same tannin as from the catappa leaves. It is completely safe and the smell you mentioned in another comment is just the normal smell of the wood, not pleasant but not toxic at all. Next time you can do like 3 water changes to keep the tannin and to remove the wood smell or as you mentioned just boil it. Amazing scape otherwise !

[@TheCineScaper]

Thanks!

[@carlahicks5653]

Soo true. Took a little time for my water to reach it's normal color again from the wood tannin. "But, learning it was safe, was "definitely a 😌 relief.

[@fishrewd-aquariumsmadesimp1277]

no offense but that rama twist root is just something from an obsolete planet it stinks whatever you do [no matter how much you soak it boil it........ughhh....

[@rustinpeace770]

Actually tannins are good for fish

[@rustinpeace770]

Never boil the wood!

[@moreolivia]

This is absolutely gorgeous and your editing skills are top notch!!! I had a betta years ago and now I am really wanting to get one again and give it a proper home like you have. I hate seeing them put in little glasses and vases and being used for flippant display. They are beautiful fish that deserve proper aquarium setups!

[@francouzskapalacinka1862]

I love that you don’t focus only on aesthetic side in this video, but you truly consider and recreate all the conditions it has in it’s natural evironment, which are needed to keep the fishes healthy and happy, great work 👏

[@TheCineScaper]

Thank you!

[@ogunk5929]

when you love everything about nature......this is jus a work of art!.....wow! amazing!

[@deepstonecostco]

For anyone who sees the moss ball and wants to get one: make sure you either get them from a reputable seller or *thoroughly* check yours for zebra mussels, an extremely invasive and damaging species that have been spotting in moss balls a lot lately.

[@TheCineScaper]

Never heard of it, but thanks for the information!

[@aylaktavsan]

I've even heard of them being banned in some states in USA as they can contain zebra mussels which are awful.

[@AJVD2123]

@@aylaktavsan they were banned from the entire country if I remember correctly, and I think it may be limited to one exporting country I don’t quite remember. My store had a couple come in with them, we took the salinity up to over 15ppt. You could taste the salt in the air.

[@mallorysss]

I've wanted one for 3 years now, but they're not sold anywhere in Ontario rn :( I'll just keep waiting sighh

[@AJVD2123]

@@mallorysss I’m not sure about Canada’s status on them because of the Zebra muscles, but they’ll likely be widely unavailable until the Russia Ukraine conflict is solved and Ukraine is able to resume its exportation of them. They were the major exporter of the plant. Japan has classified them as a protected species, thus limiting or even banning exporting them on a wide scale. From what I hear a lot of their’s sold in LFS’s are imported from Ukraine. I hope we get them back soon, they’re such a great plant.

[@rebel1980warrior]

the orange background looks like a game changer. amazing as always!

[@washingtonlass]

Absolutely beautiful! I love how many plants that are but that is so open as well! I think I definitely have some inspiration on how to set up my second tank today!

[@TheCineScaper]

Good luck for your next tank!

[@naturedecor25]

Yes sir

[@andresgil1449]

I don't know what impresses me more about thecinescaper his aquascaping skills or the editing/filming. This guy B-roll is Hollywood stuff!

[@TheCineScaper]

Thank you! :)

[@Ceretrea]

This was the one inspiration I needed today. Never even thought of gluing the wood near the rim for the houseplants. Great solution for nano ripariums!

[@bariton3779]

The maidenhair fern looks absolutely spot on for a set like this, and the maidenhair will love the water! Absolutely stunning work.

[@valentindegen]

Design & production are NEXT level! Thx for the content 🙏🏻

[@janemarple37]

nice to see a healthy 3 year old betta, mine is 3 years young as well...and i hope for some more years ;o)

[@EwaSara]

Wow, beautiful! The betta is very lucky to have such a beautiful home.

[@carlahicks5653]

"Wow!" What an amazing looking Aquarium. I know the Betta and his buddies are enjoying it.😄

[@dark_side9]

The cinematography deserves an excellent award. It's brilliant.

[@Mir.Hammal.Baluch]

This is not just another fish video, it is literally a therapy. infact all your videos.

[@BigYi313]

that's a really good Feng-shui tank my friend.

[@mariewintzer2245]

[@mama-ve4xr]

[@cameronmiller168]

Man, I've had my tank for about 1-2 years (20 gallon), and just had to get a new Betta. This is REALLY making me want to get a bigger setup for my guy. Wonderful job!

[@Frankje01]

Another amazing, though simple, tank. Just really like your style and I think even the biggest aquarium critics must admit that this makes for a fine addition to a living/office space.

[@TheCineScaper]

Thanks mate, I love when an aquarium is a real addition to a space!

[@finaljudgment8891]

Though simple…funny twat

[@rvisser2538]

[@nielsverhaar6005]

I really enjoyed this video. I particularly enjoyed that it was a real experience of tanin leaching and wood slime most people don't show this and treat it a s a failure. I loved how your showed how to work with it. Your cinematography is stunning.

[@TheCineScaper]

Thank you so much, I try to make my videos more authentic

[@IsleOfDuke]

Your style is so elegant and your aesthetic is excellent and inspiring.

[@peaches1220]

I recently got a betta after being out of the aquarium hobby for several years and after doing research on bettas ive also learned that bettas prefer the murky type water. I love the setup, hopefully as the months go on mine will be just a pretty and natural looking 😊

[@lisasaxon7828]

Always nice to see your gorgeous face. I admire your artistic scaping so much. I really find you to be one of the unique designers no matter the layout. I still love the wood scape that hangs over edge into tank and doesn’t even touch the substrate…easy to lift if needed but nothing contaminating the gravel/substrate. Leaves all that underneath area to view the fish you had…that’s my fave scape…..well until today maybe..lol Love from Perth, West Australia…Lisa

[@TheCineScaper]

Thanks 😍

I had a big experience with woods when I first time set my forest style aqua tank. I added water and waited for about two weeks with three or four times of water changing before I started to plant. I'm a little bit surprise to see you plant right after setting up.

I too have a small (45l) tank like that, but it's super old now (started in august 2017). But hey, my harlequin rasboras are still alive and active, those little beasts lol However, they're slowly getting cataract. I guess this is what it's like to get old. Your betta will live many years because it has a decent owner!

I really do love the tank, looks amazing; only thing I would say is that corydoras do prefer a fine sand due to them sifting through it to find food, as a result some can cut themselves on gravel and that obviously leaves them open to infection. It is a smooth gravel so not the worst thing, but I just wanted to let you know
