    I like the look for botanicals in my tanks. I think it looks more natural. Plus I'm a fan of the black water look as well.

    • @thesmallscape

      You like the look? Yay! I think for most, the black water is an acquired taste. But I like it and good to know the little fishies do too!

    Botanicals are one of the coolest and really beautiful aquarium additives that I found since coming back into the hobby. I especially love the different types of pods with their nooks and crannies. What a great little nature box!! This one has some really cool different stuff included 😁 I love the gift basket idea 💚
    Super cool product and tips! I can't wait to see the scape you have coming up! Thank you for sharing Joanna!! I hope you all are having a wonderful weekend and always a blessed day 🙏🌿🐟🌿💚

    Happy TSSS Joanna! 😊 That’s a nice sampler pack! I like the variety they include. Talking about those leaves...I always think back to the old video where you craft punched tiny leaves for an autumn scape out of the bigger leaf. What!!? Mind blown. SO creative! 🍁 And you know it makes an impression when I can remember that far back!!...I don’t remember what I ate for dinner yesterday! 🤔🙄🤪 Enjoy the weekend! 😊 🐠🎄✨

    I really enjoy botanicals for fish that I feel would benefit from them like of course my betta and shrimp. I kind of think my plecos would benefit from them as well. I'm actually breeding ancistrus plecos with cherry shrimp and endlers. I keep Indian almond leaves in the tank. I actually think with all that comes in that kit, it's actually not that bad of a deal even though there is a huge markup for them. I may have to buy a kit or 2. Most of my friends are not in the aquarium hobby, but then again Merry Christmas to me. Lol! I'm looking forward to seeing your new scape.

    Good Morning to our favorite Doctor Johanna!
    Again I was honored to share your 20th anniversary with you, Thank you for being with all of us on your special day! 💕
    One of your very first small scape videos I ever saw was the video with the leaf punch-outs! Very awesome! With the leaves will you be doing that for all holidays like Christmas trees or snowflakes for the holiday winter season? Oh wait!bunnies 🐇bunnies for 🐇 Cadbury Egg Day! This would be a really nice gift for somebody who would utilize a sample box

      May I ask a question? Obviously you know I trust your judgment more than anybody else is when it comes to aquatic plants That's a given. I wouldn't give My honorary doctorate to anyone else 😘 ordinarily I would not ask a question other than if we were in the Wednesday chat. If you had to pick just one economically priced easy to find 💕
      "Wow this can grow really tall really fast!" aquatic plant what would it be? I'm searching right now looking at aquatic plants and I have my 125 gallon,45 gallon hex, and 55 gallon Tanks to attempt a in Horticultural Boom-☘️Boom 🌱🌿🪴 A-GO-GO in the background of my Aquatic Boom Boxes (that's my slang term for fish Tank😄🤭🤓😇 😎😀I have been thinking about using that in Live Stream ,get everyone a -guessing 😀😂 I want to put that term on a bumper sticker)Anyway before I call Webster's dictionary with my new induction 😀😂
      As far as plants go There so many choices but there is no I trust more than you .

      Hi Beth! What a great problem to have ☺️. But seriously, I do understand. My best suggestion is to take your time! Make sure with this opportunity, you choose fish and scapes and best places to put your tanks that will make you most happy. It may be hard to wait but it will be worth it. But those size tanks are awesome for a lot of options like a school of little rasbora’s, or pea puffers!! Or sparking gouramis or small neon size tetras. So many options! Just take your time and enjoy setting each tank up!! ✨🌱🐠✨
