What brand of planting tweezers do you use? 🤔
Hey MJ I have a question. In all your scapes I never see a heater. Is that something that is needed? I see some channels say it is but i've never noticed a heater in your scapes. Unless I'm not noticing it. Just thought I'd ask.
@@F1atman I do run a few tanks without a heater, but it depends on the inhabitants. This tank has the Oase filter with a built in heater
Not sure what to compliment more, the layout, the plants or the fish. Great work, this is a beautiful tank.😊
Thank you so much 😀
@15:40 "Whoops" - The facial expression of the butterfly chichlid was priceless 😂😂
Amazing tank, and it’s crazy how fast the bulb plants grew! Love it. ❤
Very nice hardscape! The Myriophyllum "Guyana" is from South America though! 😉 But the Thomas cichlids took care of that problem their own way! Lol 😋
Weer een super bak geworden, erg mooi, de beste wensen nog, Guyana ligt naast Suriname, Zuid Amerika dus. 😊
I have a 6 foot tank. The first scape I did was really amateur. Your videos inspired me to start from scratch and now it's a masterpiece :)
Absolutely gorgeous. The bulb plants give it a very unique look compared to most scapes you see. I had never heard of either African butterfly cichlids nor the banded barbs before your channel--amazing fish selection!
Using all those bulbs as background plants turned out really beautiful. The whole tank looks great, and the fish are really cool.
This has become my favorite of all your tank vids. One the overall scape and I love that your take the time to list each plant individually with side description and facts.
This is definitely one of my favourite tanks! I live the mixture of the different aponogeton and the Lotus, and the fish are gorgeous. Very well done!!!
Wow! Love the bulb plant development and the addition of the barbs and Congo tetras. Stunner!😮
I just love themed tanks. Not every fish or plant needs to be from the same region, just the majority. This looks great. 👍
Absolutely love this tank and aquascape. Has a bit of a wild natural look to it which I love. Fish selection was outstanding as well. MJ this is definitely one of my favorites! Amazing job!
The colors of the fish really shine against all the green of the plants. Very nice!
got mine aponegetons for 9years!! the boivianus ant they grow BIGG..but dont forget that these plants sometimes will stop growing and go in some kind of sleep mode, after some time you thingk to take them out!..dont do that..let them survive..they have some kind of sleeping periode , they loose leaves and give you the feeling that they die!!..and afther that they will grow again..i love this plant specialy in the big tanks..mine got in the best times leaves about 70cm's !! yes..so big! love this tank..the maanvis in nijmegen is such a good shop! and maarten is a good friend of mine..i will follow this tank..thanks..mike
Man that grew in really, really nicely! Great fish selection as well. Those banded barbs are really pretty fish!
I really like the look of this aquascape! it looks more like something you would see in nature compared to something like an iwagumi or dutch style aquascape, the forest of aponogeton really looks natural. Great job Mark!
I think the issue with the Lilaeopsis is a light issue. They are very light hungry little plants.
As for the layout, absolutely stunning, and a lovely selection of fish on top of it. I adore it.
It's mega isn't it
Those barbs are awesome!
This is definitely one of my absolute favorites aquascapes I’ve ever seen 😍
Same here!
That first frame after "6 weeks later" lands strong!
Really nice! Having watched scaping videos for ages I often find the thumbnails less enticing but the video content always turns out to show how nice the tanks are. It's testament to how strong this scape is that even the thumbnail has punch. Definitely something a bit different. Loving the big greens
Really stunning!
Really beautiful creation! One of your best works 😊
I find this scape quite original and while you were building I could not imagine how awsome it would turn......kudos again! African barbs....how beautifull!
Awesome aquascape its probably my favorite one of your scapes next to the big shallow v2
Beautiful as always! 🎉
This is jaw dropping… absolutely my favorite scape I’ve seen anywhere and now i want an African tank with a similar vibe!!
Those banded barbs really compliment the aquascape! Perfect selection of fish and gorgeous background plants! Simply amazing! You inspire many of us who do aquascaping as a hobby!
Great Africa aquarium
Looks fantastic 😍.
Loving the video already!
Stunning mate 👍👍
Have been looking forward to this one! I love the format of the 90!
What a tank set up .. great work
Recently bought my new 3rd tank and I’m going to give this a go
Keep up the great work 👌
Love your videos! Your setups are always super inspiring 🙌🏼😎
It is just beautiful! Very nice👍
Fantastic! 👍
Great job. Love the fish. Thanks for sharing
Really gorgeous, as all of your setups.
Superb looking set up with a nice big selection of fantastic looking fish.
Unique setup, looks amazing
A very unique scape and very very natural, love this!
great story telling.
Gorgeous
So beautiful brother I love this ❤
Looks beautiful and the finish look amazing
Everything looks amazing nice work!
Love this scape, great work mate and great video 🙌
Very nice, thank you.
Wow! Love it!! Beautiful how the bulbs in back grew out. Love the fish choices too. Another winner!! ☺️
the layout is mmuch beatiful than last one, love it!
Masterpiece aquarium ❤
Beautiful! Can't wait to see how this grows. Those blue eyed congo tetra are the perfect addition 👍
All time favorite aquascaping channel 🙌🏽🙌🏽 every upload is a hit, keep it up 🔥
Thanks for the inspiration Mate 😉👍
Very beautiful Tank !!! Congratz 😊
Love the new layout. Very interesting choice of background plants. I think it came out great! Thanks for the video. I really enjoyed it.
Wow…those bulbs! Very nice!
Beautiful scape
Top marks MJ~! Great concept and execution.
Your tank looks great. Keep up the good work brother I really like it 👍👍
Very beautiful aqua scape as usual! You never seem to disappoint
Awesome 👍
It's really beutiful!
beautiful tank! those bulbs really turned out well!
Really beautiful tank again!
I think it’s by far my favourite one yet!!! Beautiful and inspiring 👍👍👍
This comes right on time as I’m debating with myself if I want to do an all-Africa tank. Thanks!
Gorgeous! Fish selection great also. Bulbs give background a whole different look. Enjoy the tank. Thanks for sharing.
C'est un merveilleux cadeau et en même temps une incroyable leçon de simplicité et de perfection.. BRAVO ET BONNE ANNÉE 🎉❤
Heel mooi resultaat 👍👌
TÜRKÇE ALT YAZI Kullandığın için çok teşekkür ederim . Senin mükemmel bilgilerini arkadaşlarımla paylaşacağım.
Nice tank!
Great work mate👌
I think the whole aquarium with everything in it is also popping because of the light...
Those skylights are still my favourite and absolutely beautiful 😊.
Beautiful tank! I have been thinking about setting up a similar tank and was very happy to see the banded barbs in there at the end. Thanks for sharing.
Nice tank 🙂, finally something easier to maintain 😜
Thank you for sharing both the good and the bad parts of your experience, I think it makes baby aquascapers like me feel better about tanks that don’t always work out :)
Looks amazing. All the plants in the background gives almost forrestry feelings.
Goed bezig MJ.
Super mooi die Jade Stones!
Loving the scape. And the longer cinematic video at the end. Kudos!
Love your choice of fish Congo and butterfly cichlids are so underrated. Don't need to say much about your scape always spot on! 👍🏻
Wow well do a man, really great tank!
This is perfect timing MJ!!!!! I was just trying to do an Iwagumi scape and figuring out how to mesh rocks with aquasoil and sand! This gave me an amazing idea and a good way to separate sand and aquasoil! You’re the best!!! Much love from US Delaware!
Heel mooi gelukt
een heel erg mooi aquarium mooie planten
Awesome
Happy New Year to you. Excellentaquarium. Not much is known about the Non Cichlid African species. Great to see them get some exposure. More like this would be great. Excellent project and awesome outcome.
Hey, late comment but you might want to consider having the basket with sponges in the bottom of the filter. If I remember correctly water flows through prefilter > through heater section > from bottom and up through baskets and then out. So having sponges at the bottom should keep the biomedia and carbon less clogged with bad stuff and leave more space for beneficial bacteria.
Love your channel! This tank looks amazing, lovely fish choice as well
Mooie natuurlijke layout! Leuke vissen ook.
you inspire me to rescape my congo tank!
also just a heads up: guayana is in south america!
love this MJ, the cichlids are a great choice for the tank, they look like a Jack Dempsey breed (you may of said this) I'll have to show you my cichlids. The tetras are lovely, I can never get these when I go looking.
love the layout and the banded barbs!! gorgeous bunch of fish altogether. great execution of the rock barrier. rescaping a uns 45l partly because of the decorative sand mixing. it had some of the same lilies and they did great in the mix of caribsea sand and fluval stratum haha. going to have to comb through past videos for the nano long ideas, the smaller space has been tough to figure out. thanks for the video!!!
this is my favorite tank you've made. non biased opinion from an African
Love you bro Bangladesh 🇧🇩❤
Love it
Hey MJ, I recently got into the hobby and am a huge fan. I would love to see you do an aquascape where all of the plants are trimmings/propagated from other tanks to see how you approach it. I live in Bermuda where it's next to impossible to get new aquarium plants because of regulation and 95% of my plants are trimmings from someone else's tank
Thanks for showing us a very nice scape, love the coloring on the jade stones in combo with the plants and wood. Personally like less population, but each there own ;-)
Awesome! and now tint it with this humin stuff ^^ i guess it looks even cooler with a light brown wather
Inspiring
Love your videos i live in Norway and i am only 12 years old and using my dads you tube aconnt ❤❤❤
