I really don’t know how you keep making changes and this tank gets better and better. I love the new fish and those lotus are beautiful! It’s just stunning, one of my absolute favorite tanks ever!❤
It's amazing how long you kept this scape. I remember rescaping mine to echinodorus heavy inpired by your Red Diamond echinodorus. Early this year I rescaped again and yet you're still the same. Every plant looks healthy and lush.
Thank you. It’s been tempting to replace the tank with the HighLine 600 but I realised it’s just another example of being victim to the consumerism culture and hedonistic treadmill. So it stays.. 🙏
@@GeorgeFarmerStudios I agree 100%. I know its about the journey but we have to enjoy this perfect ecosystem and let it do its gorgeous thing. It will let you know in time when it needs a makeover...🙏🫶
@George, great update! Can you please make a video on plant families, what experiences you had with them, maybe a short tutorial on how to pick and combine them for an easier maintenance?
I fully agree with you about fish in their natural colours. The tank is quite lovely. What more is there to say, other than I wish my scapes were this beautiful?
Stunning tank. And the combination of fish that you have works so well together. Of course I could be biased because blue is my favorite color. And I've been on the hunt for some of the blueberry tetras for a while. I will find some. I just think their shimmering colors are so striking that I could watch them for hours. Thanks for sharing your bit of heaven with us. ☺️
Hey George! Hope all is well. This layout is spectacular. I love the fish selection. Never saw angels like yours. Love that you are taking advantage of the lid with the hatchetfish. Inspires me. I haven’t kept community tank in so long. maybe its time?
Cheers mate! Community tanks provide a different vibe that’s more relaxed and suitable for long term enjoyment and fun, in my experience. Larger tanks obviously offer so many combination options too!
When I upgrade to a bigger tank and CO2, this tank might be my inspiration for its style and fish selection. I already loved the bigger tetras, especially the blueberries, but the angels and embers really kinda put the whole thing on another level. Thank you, George, for your always sharing your thoughts on maintenance and mental health--helps me every day!
Beautiful tank. Love all the different fish, didn't think you could put angels with ember tetra, my embers are with badis and neon gobies. I found them really shy with anything else. Lovely to see them darting about and not hiding
Love this tank George! Crypts are my favorite plant right now, but I’m finding it a bit awkward trying to incorporate them into my scapes. Do you have a video of you scaping this tank?
There’s a playlist dedicated to this tank but unfortunately to build of this actual scape as it’s kinda evolved since day one from the same hardscape as the discus layout.
I get what you did with the discus- big fish in an aquarium are much harder to keep alive when left for holidays etc compared to more smaller fish in my experience anyway...
Could you tell me which plants you have used in that bush on the left side behind the root (at about min 6:22). I love the look and def will try to redo that in my scape.
@@user-qt5tj4lh7l We will have to agree to disagree. In a high energy system with so much nutrient demand from high light and CO2 injection I’ve found the plants suffer considerably without sufficient exogenous nutrients. I agree that low tech systems can thrive without, however. 😊
