Quedo excelente trabajo ,en si vienen a Perú y conocer el amazonas hay paisajes muy bonitos y serian una experiencia inolvidable….
any link for the other one in the sence of @36:22 ?
Hello,
As usual, the video is amazing 😊
Does the Glossostigma need to be trimmed?
I’m afraid of losing that nice mixed and textured effect when trimming it together with the other carpeting plants.
Thank you in advance for your reply 🙂
I see, when put on contrast with other aqua scape i can feels the difference, the "vibrant" feels that homma-san talk about i can see it more clearly,
the plants fight each other for growth space and vie for survival, the first glance i get its like overgrown aquatic grass but the more i saw it the more i get the "alive" feels on that aquarium that really fit the theme and natural beauty it want to show, the flows maybe need sometimes to see more but the layout already can be seen,
the choice of fish too are planned with that massive quantity of fish would balance the "overgrown" weeds as that fish mostly eat plants, i see now to make aqua scape suikei need to plan the type of fish, the choice of quantity, the plants type and arrangement, and mostly the engineering of all element of foundation, truly a great video to see,
I learn so much in single frame. Thank you for the precious footage ❤
😂😂😂
日本の言葉で「WABISABI」という言葉があるけど、現代でそれを意識したり感じる人はすごい少ないから面白いね
mind blowing this video and beautifully edited as well
日本の誇るべき文化の一つ、それがADA

Guy sitting on the left
Is that the MJ Aquascaping dude ?
2:15 if anyone’s wondering what war he’s referring to, he more specifically meant the huge rice shortage between end of ww2 and 1960s that the Japanese government was desperately trying to resolve, hence the rapid-fire rice planting that destroyed the lagoons.
4:21 Click❤
What was the first layer of substrate used that all the fertilizers were put on? Just gravel? If the substrate stays nutritious for 3 years, does one take apart the aquarium and start all over?
What kind of moss is on the tree?
The scaping classes are the best, learn so much from watching and taking it all in, great job Green Aqua as always, and thanks Tommy for the update on the tank.
so green aqua came back and i wasn't even here for it
outstanding video
Sources on the internet say to place hardscape first and then aqua soil around it because it gets crushed but I always see pros adding soil first and put stones and driftwood on top, does it really not matter?
Question if you don’t glue the wood, how do you keep the wood from floating?
Towards the end of the video the tank on the right hand side that has the maiden hair fern. How did you get that maiden hair fern in there?Is it in a basket?How is it planted in that tank?I would really like to grow some out of mine.And i'm curious how you've what you've done there. Beautiful
с их возможностями там больше понтов
Чудо
Wow wow wow 🤩
😍😍😍
Incredible! Thank you!
I don’t know if other’s have noticed it, the glass aquarium is slightly larger than the cabinet below, is it okay for the aquarium? It wont break due to uneven pressure ? @GreenAquaShop at 25:35 mins
Your outro music choice is always out of this world.
MJ aquascaping is also there🎉🎉
The Dry Rub on the base layer is crazy stuff 😂
How r they understand him when he is speaking japanese. But the knowledge is unmissable
love this video tne tank is beautiful
🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴
The description of the Power Sand advance says it contains Bactar100 and Clear Super but they've added it here separately, is this nessasary or just a good addition?
Great editing work, very inspiring video 🙏
❤
Work of art , I started aquascaping because of your channel great content
Perfect!! Hello from Turkey
Thanks for putting such a great video. Let’s love and respect nature.
I'm really grateful that I got to participate in this workshop, the atmosphere was fantastic – one of my top favorite jobs ever as an interpreter 😉
I love the footage from the photoshoot in the woods, but not only that, the whole video is superb! Congrats to your whole team!
I m srilankan. Actually I also the lovers of aquatic plants. I have a beautiful childhood in my village. We lived beautiful green environment. Therefore aquatic planting become a my hobby and today it becomes a my business. I have big collection of photographs about environment. Thank you all because you also lovers of environment.
Wow vraiment joli ❤
I have two questions.
I'm crazy about aquariums living in Seoul, Korea. ^^
If you stack the floor tiles higher and set them up
It's always flat after a month or two.
Is there any way?
Another question I'm having trouble with moss every time, I play CO2 all day, and I get too much moss even though I only do about 6 hours of light a day.
The location of the fish tank is out of the sun. The PH is also maintained at 7.0.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Very bad choice, real pain to read and watch, nothing learned. Plenty of talented aquascapers all over the world speaking english and skills to share 😢
BouuuBouuuu green aqua 😅
