GREEN AQUA BEGINNER'S GUIDE TO BUILDING BEAUTIFUL PLANTED TANKS
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 4 ส.ค. 2024
- We tried to make the ultimate beginner's aquascaping tutorial video. A starting place for all, who want to do a beautiful planted tank, and start this hobby with no frustrations. Balazs might have gone a little too deep into the philosophy, with too many questionable analogies at the beginning. Well, we hope he's at least funny, you'll have to skip otherwise to six and a half minutes to skip the waffle. You have been warned. ;)

I learned almost everything about from this channel.
That is very cool, you must know a lot, we have lots of info out there already! Good luck with your tanks!
@@GreenAquaShop do you guys ship to the USA
@@stephann165 We only ship to the EU.
@@GreenAquaShop Aw bummer I can't wait to fill my Room with Green Aqua supplies. I'll just have to be patient & keep watching all your wonderful..! content
Me too :)
Today's culture: I want it and I want it now. Patience is also a virtue.
Exactly. We're in the age of instant gratification. A model that's being pushed on you from literally everywhere.
Fortunately this does not work with aquariums:) You just can't make plants grow as fast as you want. Nature ignores any type of culture :)
Yepp, hence the T-shirt that is considered offensive by many who do not understand the message: Mother FCKN Nature! :D Haha.
That's very true.. i been impatient result i wasted so much of money but thanks to my friend he's expert guide me through the whole process, it took me 6 months to finally complete the process, patient always grants you the best result..
Balazs, No one can talk too much when whats coming out of their mouth is helpful,sensible and delivered with the right intent.
Thanks Ed, I was afraid for the long verbose things, some have accused me to talk too much, but I guess can't make everyone happy. The drawback of reading all the comments... :)
@@GreenAquaShop you guys at GA,along with the likes of George,Jurijs and others are doing so much to help people of all levels especially beginners like me,people always gonna hate mate, fk them says more about them than you.
That is a smart thing Ed, you're right, thanks for the support!
This channel is main reason why i started aquascaping and why i started my TH-cam channel. Thanks for being an inspiration and please continue to do so.
PS I got all my equipment from Green Aqua...thanks for express delivery in these hard times....
I always look forward to every episode of yours. I can learn from you not only about aquaristics but also about running the you tube channel.These are my first successes, my 9,000 subscriptions are a small percentage of what you have.But I am also happy, I cordially greet the Green Aqua team. 👍😎👨🌾
Thanks for the kind words, and congratulations with the very cool milestone. We had a third of that when we started to produce more serious content. Wish you good luck - let's promote this hobby! Cheers
Patience is one of the most important things beginners should really internalize. In our fast modern world, we are just a click away from whatever we want to have. But you cant just buy a beautiful Aquarium. It comes with alot of preparation, effort and experience - and first of all Patience. All good things take time :) Cheers.
Yepp, instant gratification. Everything pushes you towards that. I mean everything.
Well apparently you cannot have a beautiful tank UNLESS you can buy it! CO2 systems, RO systems for those us in hardwater areas, expensive high tech plant lights, two types of soil that isn't cheap... Seems like aquascaping is only for people with deep pockets, and patience won't do a damn thing to help a hobbyist like me.
I love your videos, they are very informative. What makes it more appealing is your sense of humour and how you simplify things and explain them.
Thanks so much for the kind feedback, trying my best not to make this hobby a scientific one.
This is such an amazing channel, Balazs thank you so much for another video that makes sense to me. I don't know if it's your calming voice or the way you never complicate things, keep it simple so someone like me who is new to aquascaping never feels overwhelmed after watching one of your tutorials. 😊❤ Thanks again!
Thanks Lisa, you are most kind! Will try my best, I really wish to not overcomplicate things and not loose many people - especially ladies - to this hobby by them thinking this is a tech thing.
Hi im always learning, it takes time to know what your water will allow, which plants go where, what scapes suits the aquarium you have, yes it can get technical but along the way you make mistakes,
learn about which fish goes where ect. Ive watched and learnt from my father when i was young keeping aquariums in the 1970s till now.... i love this hobby it changes all the time. Thank you for all the info that you and George Farmer and Takashi Amano to name but a few from an Aquascapers here in the Uk :) KEEP SCAPING AND HAVE FUN
You're welcome, this hobby has changed a lot in the past years, I also used to have tanks (many) in my childhood, that was something completely different.
Keeping terrariums (and ant farms) is the exact same way. It's such a slow hobby and you definitely can't run! It takes a certain maturity and mindset to do it right.
Yepp, I guess this has to do more with the way Mother Nature functions. We have distanced ourselves quite a bit, think we can rush everything. Turns out not. :D
Love your videos!
OMG! Your channel really helpful for me! I just know aquascape and really really confuse about everything. These videos help me more confident to create my own tanks.
YES! Just YES! 🙏 Thank you so much Balazs! This is exactly what I needed. For the last 3 weeks I've been going berserk on gaining info and ideas on youtube, just to give my son's betta a better beautiful home. Was thinking of getting a Fluval Flex 34L..but bought a 2nd hand Fluval 87L tank because I thought the simpel 20L tank that we already had was not good enough. The cause was that I'd only seen big beautiful aquascapes like the ones on your channel and many others. So bigger was better i thought. *buzzer* WRONG! Seen a lot pf your vids, but THIS one ..is the Aquarium Bible for any beginner!I've got a notebook full of your teachings from previous vids and this one. Looked up local cost and did a budget. Even did sketches for possible hardscapes that I can apply to my simpel clean little 20L tank. The wife was getting on my case for not having started one already these past weeks. 😆 Like you said, I didn't want to rush into impulse buying on wrong equipment, only to be left with regret and more work, time and money to correct my mistakes. Anyways, this is becoming a novel 🤣 just wanted to say thanks for guiding me/us into the world of aquascaping. Green Aqua's vids are a joy to watch. Cheers! From an enlightened Dutchman from Down Under ✌
Cheers, so glad you like what we do, and even better, you can use what we talk about it here, mission accomplished, thanks for the kind novel, haha. And good luck with the small tank, good choice for starters!
This channel inspired me to create the best tank that I’ve ever created. It’s on day 1 right now. I hope I can share the image of my tank here.
I would really like To see it ^^
Thanks for the kind comment, glad we inspire. We don't have the time or capacity to check tanks, sorry about that. :( Only answering these comments takes days every week. Wife is killing me. Haha.
Im on day 5
How’s it doing
"Welcome to the beautiful world of aquascaping"
Indeed! Cheers.
I'm always an ultimate beginner in aquascaping, but thanks to this channel, the learning has been so much fun!
Thank you Green Aqua :)))))))
You will not be for long, if you are already not passed the beginner's level. You learned a lot from our videos already.
I can’t believe it’s taken me 6 months to find this channel! It’s exactly what I need/want. And I can listen to all the videos while I am doing my housework ... a win/win situation.
Happy to see that you like the video. 👍
Wait for the tree to produce fruit, and you will savor the sweetness of it. Patience is everything in aquascaping.
LOL, too bad I'm not patient, I will need to learn that.
Notification Squad🔔
Quick as usual. :) Enjoy!
@@GreenAquaShop was waiting 😉
Good job. :D
I think it's the first time I heard a intelligent and sense summary for being a aquascaper/aquarist. Just for that, thank's a lot :-)
By the way, I learn a lot from your videos, even if I'am a "old" aquarist.
Merci beaucoup and wish you all the best.
Cool, glad you enjoyed this regardless of your experience! :)
Thanks for the video.All the videos give me a great lessons.Thanks for the correct guidelines about the scaping ,some improvement are seen in the tank.👍🙏👏
Cool, good luck with your tank, cheers.
Can you please make a long shallow tank with a slope for shrimp
Noted, thanks for the idea!
Step 1: spend a lot of money
Did I say that?
@@GreenAquaShop dude dont pretend we dont need to spend a lot of money, CO2 systems, good filter media, liquid ferts, aquasoil, a shit load of plants and so on, dont even think about it being cheap
What balaz is saying is ,if you want the dream tank you need to spend money. Its true. But if you compare ut any other hobby is cheap. You can have budget low light tank. But is that the dream? I just invest in 300 liter optiwhite tank. CO2. Twinstar s lights. And mimic a Old amano tank. And i am so happy. The living rom in the house now got the thing i lostet over for 5 years now
What is a lot of money? Like my first tank cost me less than a skiing trip to Austria. Please don't upset me, we are different cultures, different social and financial background people. Some of us like to fight, work, wait for any time possible to get stuff we really want, others like to whine and want instant gratification. Here you go.
@@GreenAquaShop 'Expensive' is obviously relative, but for example 500 euro's will not get you really far in aquarium's, but it is a pretty chunk of money, especially if you dont earn that much. The obvious counter argument is 'what is 500 or 1000 euro for something you will enjoy for years', but people dont know if this will really be their thing when they start. So they want to throw something together for as cheap as possible and if they like it then buy better stuff later, but then the result is not what they want and they get disheartened and the upgrades never come.
Beautiful scapes. And great advice. Thank you for sharing! - Little Bobby
Cheers Bobby. :)
Thanks for the watching.
Thanks again for a very helpful video. Appreciate your knowledge of the subject. Your tanks are amazing and I can see your meticulous nature when viewing your work and the work of your team.
Yeah, very meticulous indeed, haha.
There are many things to learn from your videos as a beginner...You inspired me so much to plan for a planted aquarium...Thanks again..
You're welcome :)
Bro, whether its low tech, high tech or whatever subject you tackle, its always entertaining to watch and listen to you. thanks for sharing the knowledge!
Cheers brother, trying my best, and you always support me!
Another awesome video. You're right on most accounts about what beginners have to deal with and how they think. I've been fish keeping since I was very young, I'm almost 50 now. However, I never thought about planted tanks, I always focused on keeping fish with ornaments and plastic plants. However, despite all my efforts, algae would grow on them. I finally thought about adding real plants to fight the algae. I added a few plants to my 120cm tank and viola, the algae was gone and the plants made the tank look great. I started to plan the tank slowly and added more plants. Within a few months, my tank looked amazing! I couldn't believe how good it began to look and my plants were also doing well. That success got me hooked on planted tanks and then I found your channel. OMG!!! I was in heaven!
Yeah, it's all about a good ecosystem. Glad you found the balance in your tank, it's always so good to read stories like that! Thanks for the feedback. Cheers.
I loved the candid opening remark about experienced aquascapers not going to learn anything new, but that honest intro made my stay, watch throughout, like, and leave this comment :)
Cheers, good to hear. It was a vid for beginners indeed, wanted to do an entry vid for them.
Hello my friends Green Aqua!!!
Very intresting video!!
Very good informations!!!
Thank you very much!!!
Love from Greece😃💕
Cheers my Greek friend! Thanks again!
I really love all the videos, thank you for bringing us quality material
You're welcome, glad you like what we do. Cheers Alexander!
Hello. Oh man I adore your docks. and your comments. And your education to all who love aquariums. And the assistants who are with you are the most beautiful group, I hope you will succeed more than that. We agree with you to build basins that rise to the level of vision with which God has endowed us. Accept my greetings and thanks for your efforts. Your follower is from Iraq, specifically from Baghdad.
Este canal virou uma forma de terapia contra esta quarentena! Obrigado.
You are welcome! So glad you enjoy our videos! Cheers!
Thanks i now know that being patient and buying the right good things in this hobby is the right thing to do last year i made i couple of mistakes and the store owner didn't help me in having a good planted tank and didn't advice me in one but now after a year i'm well educated and well aware of planted tanks and one of the causes is your teachings thank you
Not to point fingers, but there are a lot of shops who go for the profit only, and - while they appreciate the hobby - they appreciate the income more. That's bad for the hobby, bad for the hobbyist and bad for us, because it will frustrate people who will come back to me and tell me I do this mainly for money, and then Dory will ask me: "why do you answer comment at all, honey?" Haha.
Big respect for your maintainers, all scapes are in so unbelievable conditions!
Thumbs up for the maintainer crew 👍 and also for Balazs 😅👍
Cheers, thanks for the kind comment, yeah, maintenance is key! Our team is very good in that (too).
Great Video, love the tanks. I tried planted tanks a couple of times and did exactly what you explained, made impulsive buys without a budget. Great advice. Now to start saving for a great planted tank and watching more videos from this channel.
You got very smart, haha. Really. Respect Ruben! :)
"Patience is the key", OMG Green Aqua, u guys are really amazing, I learned a lot from u guys!!! 👍
Cheers, so glad you liked this vid, thanks for the kind feedback.
I have to agree ! When I first started I wanted an amazing scape with everything high tech ! But soon realized it’s all about patience you tend to make smart choices when you are patient ! Great clip guys
Cheers David, glad you agree with us!
Free advice, don’t ever apologise, you are providing free and very useful information.
Green aqua is the best TH-cam channel.👌👍
Thanks for the support! Cheers!
im a beginer, so i glad to receive all the support from your channel. Thank so much.
Cheers, glad you like what we do, and thanks for the kind comment!
Totally agreed! I started with all the cheap equipment thinking I will save a bit of money to start with. I was completely wrong. I think for us beginner to start this hobby, we should save up a little bit more to get a decent system (good tank, filter, light and co2. No need to go all ADA). That way, we start off well and won’t be disappointed with bad result. Of course a little research on planting technique will help. Thank you Green Aqua. Cheers from Indonesia 🇮🇩
Wow wow wow. I left the hobby over 10 years ago and recently stumbled onto this channel and my life has changed forever. Thank you to Green Aqua and Balazs for the best highest quality and most informative videos on aquascaping. I have been binging on every single video. I have found a local supplier here in South Africa that supplies ADA equipment and I'm ready to get started. Green Aqua has now become my Meca and I cant wait to visit your store and see in real life what has inspired me so much. Thanks again.
I know that supplier, those guys are great! Good luck with your tank(s) and thanks for watching us, and for the kind words too. Cheers.
I really like this video, discussing in detail step by step how to build a beautiful aquascape for beginners, so remember the first time building aquascape, which is in the head is only how to make a good theme, but everything is destroyed after a few weeks for ignoring the importance of filtration, co2, fertilizing and light. this really really helped me learn even better. Greetings to the Aqua Green crew from me, a beginner from Indonesia
Greetings, glad you back up what we say, this is an important feedback for us. Thanks! You are great.
Good video. Thinking about the basics is always good for all levels. Love your humour. Hi to all the team. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Cheers, thanks for the kind comment! As usual. :)
Keep up the good work love the videos, big fan of your work!
Thanks, will do!
I love this guy! He explains things so well.
Thanks Tina!
I have watched all your videos and eventually I am addicted to aqua scrapping. Before watching your videos even I don't know about existence of planted aquarium. I have artificial tank searching for nice filters for my aquarium. Luckly I gone through your channel and driving me towards planted tanks. I took one week to cover all your videos. I am the nature lover and love your videos and channel.
That is awesome! Good luck with your future tanks, I'm sure you'll enjoy this hobby a lot!
Great video. Thanks for the great info and inspiration.
You are welcome. :)
Wow, that was such an amazing video. Thanks so much for posting this. You are amazing dude! You have inspired me to get into aquascaping and start youtubing too! Thanks guys!
Glad to hear it! Thanks for the feedback, glad to inspire! Cheers.
Thanks a lot guys for all you do, don't stop, you're great! I always follow you
Will do, thanks for the support Luca.
Thanks a lot for another encouragement . Your videos soothes the soul and make me understand the nitty gritty of Aquascaping.
That is cool to hear, glad you liked the video. Cheers.
@@GreenAquaShop 🙏
hola green aqua excelente explicacion , pedazo de video explicativo ,saludos y seguir asi sois los numeros uno
Cheers, you are great for supporting us!
Very well put. Great content as always
Thanks Logan, do you like the editing? :)
I am so pleased that you have addressed the concerns and doubts of the beginners. In addition, with this vlog, you had taken the wind out of the sail of those always complaining about costs. Patience is the greatest virtue of an aquarist. Planning is immensely important, even Takayuki Fukada and Felipe Oliveira mentioned that. With this tutorial, you have given me more confidence. I am not ashamed anymore about how long does it take to get as close to my scape idea as I can. And yes, as a disabled person, I will stay in the beautiful world of aquascaping.
You are always very smart and kind at the same time Mary - in your comments. I really appreciate the support you give us!
@@GreenAquaShop Well, I remember the days before GA. (I still have that Crypt Vik gave me, and that was roughly 12 years ago.) I'm am immensely proud of what You, Ati, and Vik had achieved.
You are really the best. I admire your work and I love the way you share your knowledge with a lot of effort and humor. I'm still a beginner and your videos help a lot. Thank you very much ! :)
Glad to hear that, this is our mission really! Cheers.
Being a Nature Guy, Its just relaxing to have such Beautiful tank at Home!!!
Thanks for All the Info!
You are welcome, thanks for watching.
I love your videos and explanations. I have been watching your videos and planning my tank for a few months, and now i have built my hardscape, with a nice height at the back, a good slope, i was really surprised at the depth i have achieved. And mostly its due to patience and planning of my layout, copying ideas from your videos. I did not do that with my first tank a few years ago and the difference is night and day. Thanks !
You are welcome, glad to hear that!
Thanks for all the great tips from Costa Rica!!
Glad you like them! Cheers, and thx for watching.
The best aquarium channel forever! The big fan from Taiwan 🇹🇼
Cheers, thanks so much, it means a lot to us to read comments like this!
I spent 8 months planning a 57 litre tank. Thinking, deciding, pondering. I nailed it. Nice advise
Cool! Thanks for that feedback.
Perfect timing for me... Just researching about this topic. Thank you green aqua family.
You're welcome, you might want to watch the tutorial videos linked in the description for more detailed info before you jump in. Cheers.
I'll watch them because I haven't got enough budget. I will stay at researching state for 1 or 2 years. I think after 2 years I would have enough budget to jump in. For this 2 years I will watch Green Aqua videos. Stay with beautiful aquascapes for this 2 years. :D
I'm sure you'll be more than prepared by the time you're ready. I wish I was like you when I started.
Another direct hit! This is video is reminder to think things through. (Now, I don't do that as much as I should or might. I'm on my first tank, combating algae. I was off on the wrong foot, depending too long on the fertilization of the soil before I started adding more liquid and solid ferts.) But the inspiration here gets me over the discouragements.
Yeah, we all make rushed decisions or do not think things over, but the key is that we realize that and correct our mistakes. I am the same. :)
Thank you so much Green Aqua. Valuable content.
You are welcome, thanks for watching.
Jó lett a videó mint mindig nagyon tanulságos remélem hamarosan kinyitok😃😃😃😃😃😃
Nyitva vagyunk már, hétköznap 10-15 között. Köszi Isti.
great video, people especially when they are starting they try to find easy/cheap solutions, and often times this will lead to frustration and eventually quitting the hobby.
I think the main advice for beginners should be: "Manage your expectations and be prepared to fail" because everyone here had to fail to learn. thankfully we have Green Aqua to tell us that failing is an option every tank has algae and in the end, if we persist we will succeed.
My thoughts exactly! Thanks for the support, you are great!
Always so much great info! Thanks so much
Cheers, you're welcome. Glad you liked this.
Keeping the tank small for beginners is good advice. Keeps the costs down and less work. Allows beginners to make mistakes or change their mind without a huge loss. Fully agreed on not compromising on all the essentials.
Thanks for backing up what I had to say. You are great! Cheers.
Very informative especially for me whos gonna start aquascaping. Thx man!
Cheers, you're welcome!
This is great video, i'm learning alot from this channel. Thank you, i'm a begginer too and this video make me sure and try to improve the aquarium that I built. Please more video for begginer please 👍🙏🙏
Will do. Cheers.
Patience, and keep on trying. Nice video, Green Aqua!
Thanks, glad you agree! Cheers.
you explaing in a terific way, Hungary you really rock , i ve been in Budapest many years ago, KÖSSÖNÖM
Cheers Diana, thanks so much for the kind feedback. Trying my best here. :)
Wow, so beautiful AQUA tanks
Glad you like them, check out our other videos for more! Cheers.
Loved the date analogy 😅! Allways good to stay and enjoy a nice video even if not a beginner
Glad you enjoyed this Pedro. :) Thanks for the feedback again.
All your videos are very informative as iam more interested in planted aquariums and iam planning for one as a beginner...Thanks so much for all the videos...
You are welcome, glad you liked this video. Cheers.
I like all the beautiful shots in the video! Filmed well but I think it’s to general and basic. It seemed like a response to your advanced video from last week. I appreciate the need for this video and speaking out to beginners making sure they know what they are getting into and the proper thought process around it, yet most of all encouraging them that they are capable. I just hope you continue the advanced series because last weeks video was one of my favorite yet!
Well, actually this is a table-of-contents video! As I mentioned at the beginning. You can dive deep into the 8 topics I superficially touched by going to the video description and looking up the linked tutorials there. This is a starting point only.
Green Aqua Ahhh..ok I missed that and for once skipped the description, knowing I had already seen all your previous videos. Want you to know how much I appreciate how thorough, organized, and complete your videos and channel is! Your production quality is A1, seriously the best on this platform. It is rare and so incredible how you take the time to provide such a finished product with each video! Everything from providing links to all products and related or referenced videos to taking the time out of your day to respond to the majority of your viewers. The latter really shows how much you care and the effort you are willing to give to the community; like it’s actually beautiful, whether your just returning the love with a thanks or out here offering free support and help to fellow scapers. Truly the Superman of aquascaping...a superscaper if you will xD
great work as always thanak you...
I'm Portuguese and I'm saving money to visit you store and meet you, love your job! Thank you.
Yeah! Looking forward to have you over once the craziness is over. :)
So glad I discovered this channel. I almost put together my first tank using all fake decor. Was really close to filling it with water too, then I saw this channel and rescaped it.
Very satisfied with the way it came out, especially compared to what I almost put together. Think I got lucky on the hardscape maybe lol
That is so good to read, we won another great hobbyist!
Great video, thanks for the information.
You are welcome.
This is one fine video that every aquascape enthusiast needs to watch.
Thanks so much! Glad you liked it. Cheers.
Love to learn from this Channel.
You always inspired me and other learners like me.
Love from India ❣️
Thanks for the support!
Amazing video! definitely what I would have loved to have seen when I was a beginner, I had so much trouble finding good vids to watch and help me, that's when I stumbled upon you guys and I was hooked XD. side note: I did enjoy the tank b-roll footage! Thankyou so much for advertising the discord server! I was thinking today that we should get more members to actively talk to! alright, ill go check out what's going on, on the server. See you around and as always, from Australia, have a great week and see you next Thursday!
Cheers, having a server is your merit, thanks for that! Good that people will discover that and hope to have a friendly discussion there.
Thank you for your good tips. I'm lucky to find your channel in youtube.
Good to have you here, cheers!
Very helpful video. Thanks 😊😃
You are welcome, glad you found this useful.
Best aquascaping channel on YT.
Cheers, thanks for the kind feedback.
Great beginners video! Explains the challenges for beginners. Best TH-cam channel.... period! Keep up the good work.
Let's have some more advanced workshops for the more experienced, Aquascapers.
Seems to be very focused on beginners lately.
Thanks for the support! Cheers Neil!
I learn allot from you. I wish I'd seen this video many months ago; life is for learning.
Cheers, glad you know more by now!
Thanks thanks for the info.. Your are the best 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👌🏻🍀👍🏻
Thanks for watching 😊
Balazs, you're the best teacher ever!!
Thanks so much! Really glad you could pick up what I wanted to say. Cheers.
Great comprehensive!
Yeah! Thanks!!! Cheers.
I must say that I’m still a beginner. But, whoever started their first tank as a low tech tank (no co2, low light, little plant, etc.), they still can keep the tank. All they need to do is upgrade slowly. Mistakes is the best teacher. That’s the journey we can enjoy, good and bad, they are still enjoyable journey. Thanks for today’s quality content guys. Very much love it! 🙏🏼
Yes, that is true, but we lost so many people to this hobby by being frustrated because of the poor looks of the tank, and the plants etc, that we really want to inspire everybody to do something they will be sure to enjoy in the long run. A careful financial start is very understandable on the other hand.
Green Aqua Yes. Let’s hope that they’re still up to go with this therapeutic and beautiful hobby. 💚
Absolutely.
I agree with you, I remember for the first time build an aquascapes my seller didn't tell me about how to do it properly, I used silika sand , hang on filter, buy a ton of plants and cheap lighting with only 6 watt for my 60p tank 😂 and dreaming its become dense like a jungle. Something I've learned to succeed is not only to like it but to love it.
You just described my nightmare. :) Haha, but yeah, you can start there and still do a good tank with time.

This was amazing!! You're one of most wonderful teachers I've ever seen. I just wrote a really long comment and I don't know what happened to it. But the main thing I wanted to express is how thankful I am to live in a day that I can learn from the best and apply what I've learned to what I can do!! Thank you, thank you,thank you!!! Somehow, someday... I'm going to walk into those green aqua doors!!! A girl can fantasize can't she??🤔😂😂😂 I hope you have an amazing day!!(oh yeah, I found my original comment it's underneath the comment above..)
Thanks so much for the kindness, for the feedback and support. You are great - but I think I've said that. Looking forward to have you over one day, we have (had before this crazyness) many visitors from all over the world. Once this ends, game on. :)
I am following exactly these footsteps for my hobby. I got a good regulator and now its time to get good light and RO unit after that.
Yeah! Cool! Gogogo!
