Probably the overly pretentious narration annoyed a few. It did me. Not enough for me to dislike as its a pretty nice scape but, please... someone else write the narration script. If you have to explain it to death - then did you really pull it off?
Craig, I personally think its a very good video with very good explanations. I could do what he did anytime without watching the video twice. Its a very clear video and the result is great.
Andrei Oskar I KNOW you do Andrei. You started your comment very clearly that you didn't understand why someone might dislike this. I gave you a suggestion as to why some might. That's all!
This is the first aquascaping/aquarium video i watched on youtube years ago just as a recommended video. im so glad i clicked it because now 4 years later i am the manager for an aquarium store, their aquascaper, and i maintain an aquarium plant farm. So much has happened since i watched this video and TGM has inspired me to be the aquascaper and hobbiest i am today.
@@Mekhami for the plant farm i used a semi-coarse sand, but for most people an aquasoil works best, i used the sand because its MUCH cheaper and i had 3 6’x2’ runs. Use co2, and use lots of potassium, more than you think you need. Other than that just basic plant husbandry.
Well thanks, Green Machine. I've been gorging on these videos for HOURS now. However, I think I've found my favourite of James' works with this piece, and with that, I think I'll call it a night. If I ever find myself in the UK, I'll be visiting the showroom. These tanks are fantastic, and have definitely given me some inspiration. I may attempt a recreation of Crimson Sky in my own living room.
Makes me want to get rid of my two tanks and start aquascaping.. this is truly breath taking and so peaceful to just stare at. Thank you for this video you got yourself a subscriber.
Beautiful, very relaxing in my hard times, and some fantastic inspiration. I am going for my first planted aquascaped aquarium soon. I really appreciate your work and documentation, you’re really doing a service for us all o7
James did not invent the use of land moss, but it does look brilliant. I've actually been growing it for years underwater in jars! And so have other people. Keep making these amazing aquascapes! They look brilliant.
This is a true art form. Everything he talked about reminded me of when I took photography classes. With how the eye moves through any art piece. And how rules are restricting. Aquascaping is going to be my next adventure.
I'm brand new to this kinda stuff and I've been watching a lot of SerpaDesign before this. It's really interesting to see how none of this is glued down in comparison to Serpa's stuff, who basically glues anything larger than rocks down to the bottom or back of the tank.
Good luck on your new adventure! Remember that patience is key and that we have loads of free resources on our website to help you on your way... www.thegreenmachineonline.com
I love these videos.I don't know how this video became recommended for me. Thank you TH-cam. I guess TH-cam knew I was overwhelmed with the coronavirus and the market falling and everyone 401k is in the toilet.
It takes the meaning of a fish tank to a whole new level. Simply beautiful!! I can watch these tank all day, so calming and piece full feeling. Have you thought of making video screen savers that run for a few hours. I’ve been watching some aerial HD videos of airports, mountains, lakes.
When the narrator said 19:22 "This is extremely simple layout" My brain just explode! if its that simple, my ass won't be sitting in front of the computer watching someone success within just 10 freaking weeks!
My hobbies are modding cars, computers and guns. Never cared much for landscaping..nature etc... Stumbled upon this "Landscape" type of aquarium and my creative side really wants to see what I can come up with. Great Video thanks for some inspiration!
Amazing piece! I would like to try one with directional light coming from the bottom, so the moving water rays would be reflected onto the roof of the room it's in a be super relaxing! May even get shadows of the fish swimming around on your roof!
Рыбка микрорасбора Галактика намного лучше бы смотрелась в вашем шедевральном аквариуме, аквариум действительно получился как картина на холсте и рисовал ее отличный художник! С нетерпением ждем новых шедевров с подробным описанием материалов которые используются в ваших шедеврах в плоть до названия камней. Спасибо!
That is so amazing at frost is looks like your adding spices to cook something to eat. Lol. Also me art of work. I am waiting for a 12 gallon edge tank to set something up and getting ideas for it. Thanks for the best video Bill. In San Diego
Hi James. Love your videos as they bring great inspiration and want to do my own Iwagumi tank. To be fully prepared my only issue is maintenance, which I'm not sure what must be done. Could you please make a quick video on how you maintain the tanks weekly?
To prevent moulding or fungus killing off the mosses, add some springtails to each rock with moss. They will also ad free live food for your fish should any of them fall into the water. They are small enough for nano fish to easily eat.
Thanks you very much! you are a great inspiration! I want to start my project soon. I have a question, when you use living plants on a aquarium dont you need a CO2 tank suply for them? Thanks
Juan Carlos Fondeur YOU SURE DO. to have successful plant growth requires a balance of light,nutrients,trace elements, and co2! . happy fish keepingggg
i enjoyed every minute of your video.. i always wanted to have this kind of tank, but since i was working here in Arabia, this kind of plants and other materials isn't available in the local pet store.. i need your suggestion please. thank you :)
I just loved this aquarium. Explendid word. just got tired of the british gentleman narration as the work was being develooed then I Mute the video, so I could enjoy the beauty of this work of art and the sound of silence. Jeff from Brazil :-)
hey guys u guys r awesome , I live in newzealand n sadly I cant get any of those white powder which you put first or even the proper substrate , what we get is only laterite gravel kind of thing which is pretty average :( wish I could get those stuff which actual aquascapers like u get it ,, huh may b one day
I went through a solid ten years of working with terrestrial habitats. Even though these tanks are sensational, they are too elegant for me to experiment with. I would love a nice collection of fish but more wilder varieties including aquatic frogs etc. With these exquisite systems the fish variety is critical, narrowed and sensitive.
Even after 10 years , it’s still one of the best aquascapes in my opinion 👏👏
What happened to the green machine fellas?
@@sidharthsoman851 I am also wondering...
@@w.d.c.6657 He wrote he want to use his time with his family, now he got old :)
The sense of scale helps to create a sense of scale, which is critical to achieving a sense of scale.
This comment made me lol
XD
Who else feels extremely relaxed when watching this guy mess with a fish tank
yeah and the music and everything is soo relaxing :)
indeed
+Sohan Meegahage I actually play this to fall asleep at night...
Have a couple drinks and its even better.
yes, just lay down and watched, and thinking how could look my new aquarium
Why would anyone 'unlike' this???
It is beautiful! Congratulations to the creator.

Overly pretentious narration? Didnt seem so to me.
Andrei Oskar Which probably explains why you couldn't understand the dislikes. (amongst other things) :)

any tips on growing your own aquarium plants? they're so expensive @.@

Thats the most beautiful Aquarium i have ever seen in my life

TRULY BREATHTAKING! I'm developing great interest in the ART of aquascaping. I'd give this standing ovation !!
Mr.James Findley.. the ultimate aqua scape architecture I have ever seen... great Salute!!!!!!
Man...I really wish I could afford to just aquascape all day and be known for it! Fantastic tank!
have been watching many of your tutorial videos these last days, but this aquascape is by far the most stunning imo.
Thanks! :)
Makes me want to get rid of my two tanks and start aquascaping.. this is truly breath taking and so peaceful to just stare at. Thank you for this video you got yourself a subscriber.
I can't tell you how many times I've watched this video. So meditative (and informative). Eagerly awaiting more videos
James is the best aquascaper I've seen
I have no idea how I got to this video. With that being said this was oddly satisfying, and relaxing to watch.
This channel convinced me to start a planted tank ! Those scapes are amazing!
Sweet! You look like you're enjoying yourself as much as I am observing you work. Awesome stuff. Thanks for uploading this vid.
My new desktop wallpaper. One of the most beautiful aquariums I've seen.
In my opinion, the best aquascape from James Findley to date. Congratulations for the stunning work!
Once again I watch this video, and am still amazed at the beauty of this work. Thanks you!
These videos are absolutely fantastic. I cant express how lucky I am to have a professional source of aquascaping to spawn ideas from. Cheers
This is one of the most beautifully designed tanks I've ever seen. Touche.
This is a splendid work of art....not just a fish tank!!!
Breathtaking. That's probably the greatest more beautiful aquascape i have ever seen. Well done.
This one is by far my favorite. The diagonal element coming out of the water is beautiful.
Beautiful, very relaxing in my hard times, and some fantastic inspiration. I am going for my first planted aquascaped aquarium soon. I really appreciate your work and documentation, you’re really doing a service for us all o7
this is far the best instructional video i have ever seen
6:47 You know this is dedication & quality when he removes the brush!! Amazing!
I just watch this videos because I like the whole process of making an aquascape and the end result, also the narrator's voice it's an added bonus
My favorite piece. Beautiful. I'd love to try a shallow tank like this.
Amazing piece of living art. The cardinal tetra swimming all the way across the tank to get some food at the very end was great
This is how I would love my aquarium to look . It looks so amazing I can look at it all day .
James did not invent the use of land moss, but it does look brilliant. I've actually been growing it for years underwater in jars! And so have other people. Keep making these amazing aquascapes! They look brilliant.
Thank you, and thanks to everyone for watching, and for all the comments.
I wish there was a shop like this close to where I live. These guys make some of the coolest style aquariums.
Great job Mr Findley - It was breathtaking.
Greetings from Poland
Yes we do sell it... we have literally tons of it and it is one of James' favourite hardscape materials for obvious reasons. Find it on our website.
This is the best ever aquascape I have ever seen. Wish to have one.! Great work 👏
This is truly an amazing Tank. The layout and design is exactly identical to what i want to create! When i'm ready i can't wait to begin my project!
I love watching these videos before I go to sleep.
Indeed, the fish are acting normally, unlike in so many ADA tanks set up by "the master". bravo!
Thank you TGM for all of the videos you have posted. Simply Amazing to see it from start to finish!
You have Inspired me
Also the grey in the green is a very good contrast and a bright dark contrast are seen , too - just miss a little warm cold contrast and its perfect^^
This is a true art form. Everything he talked about reminded me of when I took photography classes. With how the eye moves through any art piece. And how rules are restricting. Aquascaping is going to be my next adventure.
this is the video that inspired me to start my biotope aquarium journey
I love your videos. Thanks to you I have thought about starting aquascaping myself! Great channel!

The amount of money that goes into each of these Aquascapes has got to be mindboggling..
Absolutely stunning. Ive just atarted aquascaping and I would love an aquarium like this one day
This is absolutely breathtaking.
Love all your aquascapes - a real source of inspiration.
When the narrator said 19:22 "This is extremely simple layout" My brain just explode! if its that simple, my ass won't be sitting in front of the computer watching someone success within just 10 freaking weeks!
I took a shot every time they said layout haha
My hobbies are modding cars, computers and guns. Never cared much for landscaping..nature etc...
Stumbled upon this "Landscape" type of aquarium and my creative side really wants to see what I can come up with. Great Video thanks for some inspiration!
Looks amazing, like a pice from a small stream in a rainforest.
Gonna start aquascaping in like two days! Wish me luck!!
so how did it go
+Ironiic zero he failed miserably and smashed his tank
Cichlid Maximus 😂😂😂😂
how did it turn out
Neill Jansen van Vuuren not good.
Thank you for teaching, best regards from Ukraine
Amazing piece! I would like to try one with directional light coming from the bottom, so the moving water rays would be reflected onto the roof of the room it's in a be super relaxing! May even get shadows of the fish swimming around on your roof!

Wow truely amazing aquascape setting that I have ever seen....
Mind blowing work of art.

Absolutely beautiful James.
Lovely aquarium!! Beautifully planted and aquascaped! :)
This is gorgeous! I wish I had the space and resources to design tanks like this. I'm limited to my 20 gallon aquarium right now.
That is so amazing at frost is looks like your adding spices to cook something to eat. Lol. Also me art of work. I am waiting for a 12 gallon edge tank to set something up and getting ideas for it. Thanks for the best video
Bill. In San Diego
i almost cried watching this video...never seen anything so beautiful in my life before!! WOW...i want a tank like that to put my goldfishes...haha
That setup was the most prettiest I have ever seen in my life...
goldfish require more liters
Hi James. Love your videos as they bring great inspiration and want to do my own Iwagumi tank. To be fully prepared my only issue is maintenance, which I'm not sure what must be done. Could you please make a quick video on how you maintain the tanks weekly?
this video was inspiring me, to create aquascape
JAMES! YOU ARE GENIUS!!!!
Saw it on the webbshop, looks super!
To bad the shipping cost makes it impossible...
James really appreciate himself...
Stunning love it so much!!! Very rich ideas!!!
James Findley = Legend
To prevent moulding or fungus killing off the mosses, add some springtails to each rock with moss. They will also ad free live food for your fish should any of them fall into the water. They are small enough for nano fish to easily eat.
Some ppl are so brilliant on this!!! =)) thanks for uplaoding!!
I let James work while I fall sleep.
Thanks you very much! you are a great inspiration! I want to start my project soon.
I have a question, when you use living plants on a aquarium dont you need a CO2 tank suply for them? Thanks
Juan Carlos Fondeur YOU SURE DO. to have successful plant growth requires a balance of light,nutrients,trace elements, and co2! . happy fish keepingggg
do you have a follow up video for this, so i can know how to maintain that awesome tank? great design
i enjoyed every minute of your video.. i always wanted to have this kind of tank, but since i was working here in Arabia, this kind of plants and other materials isn't available in the local pet store.. i need your suggestion please. thank you :)
great stuff here, informative, and skillfully done
hermoso, este es uno de los acuarios mas bellos que vi por años
AWESOME!!!
I Love this stuff!!!
Definitely 'simply stunning'
Trés belle vidéo et trés beau travaille... Bravo!!!
I just loved this aquarium. Explendid word. just got tired of the british gentleman narration as the work was being develooed then I Mute the video, so I could enjoy the beauty of this work of art and the sound of silence. Jeff from Brazil :-)
never been done before?! Use of terrestrial mosses in this style has been done in the paludarium hobby for ages....
Yep
hey guys u guys r awesome , I live in newzealand n sadly I cant get any of those white powder which you put first or even the proper substrate , what we get is only laterite gravel kind of thing which is pretty average :( wish I could get those stuff which actual aquascapers like u get it ,, huh may b one day
Such a badass aquascape.
Very cool aquascape!
one of the best I've seen.
What if you put in turtles?
not recommend, turtle or tortoise create a lot of dirt ammonia that could harm fish in the tank
Very cool ! Nice job.
I went through a solid ten years of working with terrestrial habitats. Even though these tanks are sensational, they are too elegant for me to experiment with. I would love a nice collection of fish but more wilder varieties including aquatic frogs etc. With these exquisite systems the fish variety is critical, narrowed and sensitive.
this one seems to be a fan favourite
