    I'm always amazed at your skill to build an amazing natural looking high impact aquascape. The commentary and communication of the building process is second to none! A true master that we all can learn from. My goal is to create an aquascape that communicates nature and that hasn't been created, just formed over time.
    Love all of your work!

    Absolutely love listening to your stories while doing the most mondane of tasks. Amazing how the expanding foam played a role in the stability of that main piece of rock in the end. Didn't think it would be that stable. Wow

    The perspective of this scape is immaculate. I really love the way you shaped the "path" to the vanishing point in the final picture, its so subtle yet intricate. The way the towering rock outscales the flat ones at the end point to create even more depth is just artistic.
    Thanks a lot for this video workshop Steve! Looking forward to your competition scapes this year, all the best!

    Its so great to have all this helpfull information in just one video 🙏thank you for sharing all this information with us. I hope you will have a wonderful weekend! With love from the Netherlands 🇳🇱 Stefan

    Was the rock held together with that landscape foam? The other parts superglue?

    Thanks for sharing your knowledge. For competition tanks, do you prefer to start them in DSM, in a dark start, or in a traditional way from day one?

    Maby a stupid question,but why don't you use a black foil on the outside of the tank and not use black tape in the tank

    • @SteveScapesYT
      @SteveScapesYT  2 місяці тому

      no stupid question! It doesn't do either job of the black tape inside, which is to 1) kill side reflections, turning them into shadows, or 2) provide an anchor spot to attach to.

    Question @SteveScapesYT. How much will the rocks cost for a scape like this? Not everyone will be able to afford soo much stone at one time. What is your advise to someone that loves scaping but has a budget?

    • @SteveScapesYT
      @SteveScapesYT  4 місяці тому +3

      If I was starting off from ground zero, I’d check local quarries/landscape shops, scour local materials- anything I could find a LOT of, no matter how ugly/simplistic, is going to be more useful than a beautiful material that I have too little of.
      In using $$$, quantity > quality in hardscape EVERY time unless adding to an already sufficient collection

    another way is to just frost the sides of the tank when making the tank if thats going to be diy
