Planted Tanks and INCREDIBLE Aquascapes - Arcy Aquariums with
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 10 ก.พ. 2024
- In this FULL store tour we are joined by @AdriansFishroom to take a look around the wonderful Arcy Aquariums on the Gold Coast, Australia! Ross is an INCREDIBLY talented aquascaper, and can grow many rare/hard to grow plants. He also builds many of his tanks and cabinets.
Ross previously bred discus but at the moment he is into shrimp, and has the largest variety of shrimp I've ever seen in an aquarium store. Ross does all of this himself with the help of one staff member named Peta - Peta also breeds fish, including Tanganyikan cichlids. A big thank you to Peta's partner, Nathan, for helping us film this!

You weren't lying - this shop does indeed look like a fish room. Thank you for the video - great stuff. 🖤❤🧡
These are some of the most beautiful scapes I have ever seen.
oh man this shop looks incredible. thanks for showing us around
It's seriously so amazing! I'm glad you enjoyed it 😊
What an amazing shop, people on the Gold Coast are so lucky.
These are unbelievable tanks best I've seen. Thanks for taking us on that tour it was great.
Ross scape is amZING
Perhaps the prettiest and healthiest fish and aquariums ever! Wish all fish keepers, breeders and sellers were as conscientious and this is how ALL fish stores should be! Amazing and gorgeous! Love it! If I lived in Australia I’d be there daily! True inspiration!!
It is certainly incredible!! Ross and Peta have done an amazing job 😊
@@Kaityscichlids ❤️
This is my favourite aquarium shop. Great setup, great fish, great staff
Some channels bring us quantity but you kaity bring us quality, everytime without fail ! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
(Best of luck to AB in new endeavour aswell)
Thank you for sharing such an amazing fish store.
It's my pleasure!!
This is one of the most impressive fish stores I've ever seen. The creativity is amazing. Ross is truly an artist. I'm blown away. Thank you for taking your time and going through the whole store!
Now you found yet another one that needs their own channel! This place is amazing! 🎉
This whole video is pure inspiration, thanks!
A very nicely done video of Ross' fish room/store Kaity! I have also enjoyed your videos of Adrians fish room and it was nice hearing you and Adrian talk about the various fish and plant species here at Ross'. It is always inspiring to see Adrians fish room, and now Ross'. Thank you for the link to Adrian's fish room and thank you for sharing!
Adren is a encyclopedia. Lol full of knowledge
Hahaha, he sure is 🤣
I could spend hours in a shop like that. It's great to see someone display their passion like that in a shop.
Some of the scapes I saw in this video are world class. The lace plant centered on a driftwood island over Buce with the sand substrate is incredible.
Ein Wahnsinns Shop! So viele wunderschöne Aquarien! 😍👍
Hi Katy, plants definitely make a tank look astonishing. Certainly, Arcy Aquariums has come up with such an innovative idea to display their tanks, I haven't seen it before in any TH-cam video or store here in Peru so I'd definitely buy it. Thanks for showing us another great tour. Greetings and blessings from Peru🙌✌!!!
Wow that's 1 impressive fish store/ room 🎉❤
Beautiful store!
This is the best looking store that has been presented online; some unique and beautifully maintained displays with a realistic natural look, plants everywhere, inhabitants are breeding, organized, tidy, and all tanks are kept as comfortable homes for their inhabitants, even if temporary. I'm with Ross on the philosophy that every tank needs a natural aesthetic. The only improvement I can see, is to ditch the potted plants, especially those in plastic cups or replace with containers that have a more chaotic, natural feel: hand made pottery in irregular shapes, slate, stone anything but a round, man-made pot. Even without this change, I'd say this store trumps Ocean Aquarium in San Francisco, which I thought was the coolest fish store on the planet in that it is significantly more organized, tidier and inviting. A very inspiring store; makes me want to quit my day job and live the dream!
Thanks for the feedback on the pots and the kind words about my store. The potted plants are for sale so have to be kept at a price point that work for the customer unfortunately otherwise I’d have them in natural made with timber hollows etc
@@arcyaquariums6393 Makes sense. Not a lot of room for improvement. Well done!
Wow truly amazing 💚🌿💚
Kaity thanks for the video was very interesting 😊👍
Ross is a legend.
Peta is the L397 of fish breeders
amazing ❤, so unbelievable
That Chonky pug haha
Wait till that lace plant flowers and they are beautiful.
Amazing tanks
WOW, what an awesome store. I’ve never seen anything like that in the US. I would certainly be a frequent flyer there. Thanks for sharing.
Was in there last week.
I was blown away, so much so I’m going back for another look.
Very nice gentleman also.
You can see the care in all the details. Another great look.🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟
This place is so mesmerising I could easily spend a day in there just browsing and admiring every single tank being a work of art! Pity this shop wasn’t in Sydney.
I'm lucky enough to be a local to this lfs & visited the other day for the first time in a couple of years. I have to say the work that Ross has put in to make it what it is today is incredible. I've seen a fair few shops around the country in the last 10 years & this tops the list by far
Great store tour! I loved all of this!! Amazing!
Hi kaity.. i am also a aquascaper and i like your hobby so much..🥰👌🏻
Awesome
Amazing
The store and the aquariums look absolutely amazing! Thanks for sharing.
Love Arcy’s ❤
Hi Kaity thank you for sharing this amazing video😊
What an amazing, aquarium gallery. I'd pay just to spend time looking about. Thank you for doing this tours, they are quite enjoyable.
Thankyou thankyou thankyou for this video i am just gobsmacked with every tank absolutely amazingly beautiful. the plants are the healthiest i have ever seen the fish look such great condition and each individual tank are just unique details are just picture perfect. The shrimp varieties, colours are mind blowing.this fish store in my opinion is a gold medal winner the best in Australia. Thankyou again Ross for your amazing shop thankyou Kaity for the video thankyou Adrian for your knowledge
Great tour. It's a fantastic shop. I'm 2hrs south so don't get there as much as I'd like, but I was there the day after you filmed this. Got some co2 equipment and some gold laser crystal. Buy the way Kaity, your the reason I got back into fish. Thank you .
So exciting 😊
😊😊😊
enjoy full video Kaity
thanks!
Each time I attend the store I swear Ross gets a bit better looking - He is such a handsome man.
Love you too Pete! Miss your soft tones!
Amazing! How he can keep tanks that pristine while moving stock I’d love to know!
Love the fish 🐟🐠🐟🐟 I want to try my first planted tank. Watching these videos helps me learn all the different kinds of nano fish. Love the forktail Blue eyes.
Another amazing Video. Thanks for sharing Katie.
Great video. Thanks for sharing beautiful place
Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it 😊🙏🏼
@@Kaityscichlids subscribed to your channel
@@josepolanco1228 thank you so much!! 🙏🏼
More than the Great Barrier Reef, Uluru, Sydney Opera House, Bondi, and Tasmania, it's these fish spots and their curators that I'd visit first if I ever made it to Oz. You're all so magical! Thanks & love from Liverpool.
Hahaha, that is awesome! And so true 🤣 When I went to New York I visited an aquarium and pet store before I visited Central Park (that was just for leftover time lol)
Hi Kaity, I hope you're well? I really enjoyed this episode thank you!!!
The fact that I walked in on you filming this with Ross made my day, wish I could've said hi but you were busy :)
That is so cool!! Definitely say hi next time, I'm never too busy :)
@@Kaityscichlids so happy you replied! Can't believe you got to meet the King of DIY, hope to show you photos of my tanks one day :)
Love your African Cichlids, keep making fun videos so that more people join the hobby 💜
@@AlphonzohTheDove thank you SO much 😊❤️❤️ You will definitely have to show me! I've certainly been very lucky that other content creators like Joey have been so generous and encouraging
@@Kaityscichlids I've watched him for almost 7 years and he's to blame for my obsession with flowerhorns and Oscars. I watched him succeed from being a much smaller creator and I'm so confident that it won't be long before I get to watch you reach a million!
Keep creating, need a collab with MD fish tanks some day please!! 🙏😊
Pathos is great, I have tons of it going crazy here. My newest plant is Monstera, you should try it! There are lots of house plants that do well in tanks. When I do a water change, I put the old water in my garden.
Oooo I do love Monsteras! They are gorgeous
Great video Kaity‼️ You always manage to tour the coolest LFS 🐟🐠😎❗️It really does seem like a giant fish room and has many similarities to Adrian’s place
You said crazy he said oh my God. Oh my god that's the craziest fish store i've ever seen .imaculate
Wow, that place looks amazing. I love plants and that place looks so beautiful. I would feel like just sitting in there and have a picnic or something.
Awesome video!!! This store is so unique !! It gives like a home fish room vibe. I love it. Soooo… when I come to Australia…. You taking me here?! 😂. Awesome video Kaity!!!
Espectacular 😊
very cool fishstore tours love your videos nice job kaity
Wow look how clean every tank is. Amazing from Charlotte NC USA! I only have a 125 and its a daily battle to keep nice. Great job for this store and a warm thanks for sharing.
What a wonderful tour and so many amazing tanks! Did you have a particular favourite?
Just mind boggling 🎉🎉🎉🎉
So many beauty so little time to see
So very true!!
inspired
I was wondering just last night if those flamingo plants are supposed to stay tiny and then I see he has a huge one. Mine must be super slow growing or possibly the shrinking kind.
👍🏻👍🏻
Nice video tour as usual 👌
Thank you Bill 😊🙏🏼
❤😘
Nice
The tank starting at 4:12 is absolutely incredible. The Rainbow fish look amazing. I’ve never actually seen them before. Do you happy to have any information on them? Like, where are they from? I’m not sure I’ve ever seen them in the US. Of course, all of the tanks were a work of art. Thank you so much Kaity for the tour.
I'm so glad you enjoyed it!! And that tank is my absolute favourite too. They are called Boesemani rainbow fish, but these ones are particularly large ones. I think he has had them for quite a while
awesome store...wish we had one here like that in usa :(
The prices I see there are pretty expensive, compared to Germany. I am sure, its because Australia is so seperated and a small market et all.
Australia is a very expensive country to live in unfortunately. Many fish prices are expensive because we cannot import many species of fish and can only rely on what’s bred here in our country, fish that can be imported have to be quarantined 2 weeks in country of origin and 1 week on arrival in our country which drives the end cost up unfortunately
@@arcyaquariums6393 yes, I thought so.
@@arcyaquariums6393 when I remember it right, the Endler Guppy Japan Blue Was about 15$ there?
Here in Germany about 5€, what would be 8,25 Australian Dollar.
@@arcyaquariums6393 but your shop really looks fantastic. Keep up the good work.
Thankyou. It’s growing well. Exchange rates are not really an accurate way to measure though. The cost of power, water, rents l, wages and taxes would have to all be taken account as well. Australia will never be an exporter due to the costs to exist in this country
nice
❤❤❤
I'm in usa kaity I have to say you have some really cool Fish stores in Australia
Witam serdecznie dziękuję za pokazanie pozdrawiam z Polski miłego dnia życzę
Greetings from Australia!! Thank you, I hope you have a lovely day too 😊🙏🏼
Bucephalandra akvaryumumda bakmak istediğim bitki türlerinden biri. Bitkiler ve gelişimleri çok güzel.
It's so beautiful! 🌿
Can you name of all the fishes except bosmani rainbows ?
Hey mate, just wondering where you got your tanks from? Cheers
Hi Jeff,
All sales tanks in store were built in store. 😊
$280 and $400 for baby Bichers is crazy expensive. In the states they are $15
We are not in the states..
Noticed that a lot of his displays are AIO. I also noticed he had matten filter foam in an empty waterbox AIO for sale? I'd love to know how they run/modify those AIO's. I imagine the matten foam keeps the nano fish and shrimp out of the filter compartment.
Hi Mark,
What do you mean by modifying them? I run matten filter in what would be close to 90% of my aquariums
Hi @@arcyaquariums6393 , at 21 minutes into the video there's a waterbox with what looks like a matten in the back? And the lace plant cube looks like it has one in an AIO config as well. Was just curious if you did anything special there. Thx.
Nothing special, it’s just a stock standard tank that’s made in store to sell. The lace plant tank is setup so customers can see one that’s running
Is seachem matrix biological media good?
Looking for my 400ltr arowana tank.
Quality natural looking set-ups.
They are gorgeous!!
What light are they on the bowls please ??????
They’re bioscape 5w led clip on lights
@@arcyaquariums6393 thank you
👀😬❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️☮️
Hey Kaity. One dumb question.How tall are you?
I'm 5'7 😊
@@Kaityscichlids you cann tell m and cm. I am german :) But thanks.
@@AquaOne1 omg 🤣 I'm using to converting to the US system for people. I'm 169cm
kaity you are pretty 🙃🙃
any one from dubbo😂😂😂
Is he running CO2? Amazing buce growth if he isn't. It's realatively inexpensive here now (about 3 good size pots for around a tenner).
I can remember when it first came into the hobby and it cost you that for one tiny plant.
Yes I believe he's running CO2 on a lot of his tanks!
Buce cost a fair bit here in Australia but the Lace plant very expensive.
Just kupchak market fish eat market fish beautiful tall biggest outside to people love Anymon trees foods would have what they Luther heard relying updates life your large people penalty beat just ho my God natural ka ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
