This reminds me of the film The Beach, have you considered making up tanks of famous places? Could do an Easter Island with those head statues around it..
@@unusualaquariumecosystems5805 I usually scape my tanks to enter in a contest so I would prefer to keep it with hardscape and plants only. But thanks for the idea! :)
Loved it😍, the music, the tank, your dog, the cinematics, everything seemed so professional and at the same time so emotional. I just found one thing extremely fascinating, the thing you did with your moss, putting them inside a blender and then spreading it on the rocks. Does it really grow that way ?
Thank you for the kind words. I am really happy that you like it! Yes it works with finer species like fissidens fontanus & fox. Also riccardia chamedryfolia seems to work. More coarse moss sp might not work with this method. I also used it on lava rocks in 2 forest scapes I made before
I just can't comprehend how you are able to replicate a MASSIVE environment in a small fish tank with such accuracy. It really looks like a mountain path! I did an alright job on my nano tank aquascapes, but just got a 40 and feel so lost with the scape. I've spent probably 500 dollars on various hardscape materials but just can't make anything I'm happy with! I love that there is a gradient in your tank, and many other advanced aquascapes, it isn't just a flat ground. I am trying to achieve that in my 40, but I am failing!! Going to the LFS for more sticks and rocks tomorrow lol!
More hardscape is always good so you have plenty of choice. This will help to create better hardscapes. I would say never give up and take your time building a solid hardscape. It's like the backbone of your aquascape. Some contest Aquascapers take weeks even months to build a hardscape before flooding it. This will help a lot. Keep tweaking and sometimes let it rest for some hours or days. Pick it up later again with a fresh mind. Good luck!
I really love this aquascape, so amazing, you're very talented. The only gripe I have is the music. Wayy too serious and epic for what is happening. Comes off a bit pretentious, even comical at times (especially when you cut to your dog).
Thanks man. Haha yeah I have been receiving a lot of comments about that. In my opinion it was to enhance the story of a dramatic landscape. Think like GOT and LOTR. I appreciate the input though. What would you rather like to hear? I wouldn't really use this music on something like a classic na style or Dutch.
@@NigelAquascaping To be clear this is a nitpick, but I often see aquascapers equate 'cinematic' with 'epic' and 'serious'. This music is so urgent and important-sounding, even though aquascaping is actually a very fun and calming activity. The soundtrack makes it seem like your forcing importance onto your work, instead of just letting the work speak for itself. I would have done something a bit calmer, with a little joy in it. Maybe Indonesian. If you want some examples, I think foo the flowerhorn does a great job at picking music that matches their tanks perfectly. Or maybe just be be self aware, like that Gardener Ignores The Laws Of Nature video, use overly epic music on purpose as a joke. Anyways, do what makes you happy but these are just some tips. I also love the LOTR soundtrack, partly because of how appropriately it's used in the films. Keep on scaping my dude, looking forward to what you make next
@@888fluffy Thanks for your input man. I really appreciate this kind of input. If viewers don't give feedback. Then it will always be guess work how people experience my videos. And if they feel the same as what I want to show.
Llene el agua muy lentamente con una manguera muy pequeña. Use algo como papel toalla o una entrada del filtro. Todo esto ayudará a llenarlo sin molestar demasiado.
@@NigelAquascaping I subscribe to your channel, your videos are very relaxing PS: I'm using a translator to answer you in case some word is wrong, it's not my fault, it's the translator's XD
REMOVE THE BACKGROUND MUSIC PLEASE. THIS KIND OF VIDEOS NEEDS TO BE PEACEFUL, IT JUST RUINS EVERYTHING. OR MAKE IT ASMR. JUST A SUGGESTION THO, THANKS AND NICE VID (I MUTED YOUR VIDEO)
Hey thanks for your suggestion. I know what you mean. What about a video with only tank footage. It would be hard to add sound effects on that kind of videos. Would be really boring no if there is no sound at all? It's impossible to please everyone with music.
@Fishnetsoh Yeah I agree. In my opinion the music choice fitted this mountain scape to make it more dramatic and give impact. While a more planted scapes with lots of close ups, it would be better to add something like slow relaxing music. Both can work indeed and as I said it is impossible to please all the viewers. I appreciate the discussion and feedback of you guys. This kind of input helps me for future videos. 🙏
With every creator there comes their own unique way of producing videos. I like the cinematic aspect of it and the background music adds to the intensity. Of course you can always resort to moving on to another creator or watching the video on no volume
I'm just a noob with a 2.5g tank looking to upgrade and checking out hardscape ideas and I must say that I'm flabbergasted. I didn't even know such thing was possible. I feel I just entered a rabbithole without noticing haha
It's a beautiful new rabbithole to explore haha! Watch some iaplc contest result videos from ada. I was surprised just like you when I watched it for the first time.
Unbelieveable! I am shocked and amazed that you fit all those details in such a tiny tank! I thought this tank was gonna be huge, by the looks of the pic. Very impressive and amazing!
This is so amazing. I'm just about to do a dry start tank with moss on dragon stone and wanted to know how long you waited to flood after painting on the moss? Do you need to see proper growth or just enough time for it to attach to the rock? Thanks in advance!!
Thanks mate. It's a mix of a lot of things. Experience is handy. Always stay on top of your maintenance. Don't skip water changes. Clean organic waste with tools like a turkey baster during water change. Optimize co2 with ph drop method. Have all nutrients available but don't overdo it like EI imo. Make sure there is enough flow but not too much. Trim plants in time so it doesn't block the flow.
Dear Nigel, this is WONDERFUL. Exactly the type of thing that makes me love aquascaping so much. The only thing I would have like on this video was a set of shots showing the growth of the plants on the mountains. Maybe one day I'll be brave enough to make this. :-D
