    How to keep an aquascape low maintenance? It all comes down to four things.
    Dennerle sells two identical tanks with different packaging. Both tanks are below:

      Apparently, before you post a UA-cam video you're supposed to poll everyone as to how they prefer you speak into the microphone, otherwise risk offending many of them. The Internet sure attracts a lot of people who feel the constant need to take a dump on someone else's doorstep. Very nicely produced video.

    Love the scape with the petrified wood and of course enhanced by the Espe's! I have the same Dennerle (I'm in Canada) system and agree wholeheartedly with your assessment and recommendation...an excellent tank to scape with that footprint and the light is excellent. I replace the internal filter for a HOB but other than that without CO2, no problems. Thanks again for sharing and keep up the great vids.

    I was all about all fancy and populated aquariums, but from some time I started to appreciate the beauty of these nano aquascapes! I also like the paludariums. Started building some "ecospheres" with local materials, but I feel like I want to step up my game now. I'll be watching your videos and gathering ideas!

    Thanks for this. I’ve been obsessively researching before I set up my first proper scape (I’ve kept fish for 30 years but not been a plant enthusiast until recently), and I couldn’t understand why folk use CO2 indefinitely instead of just at the start. Now you’ve shown me that it’s possible, and for me at least, beneficial, to just start it off with CO2 and then wean it. Now I can experiment =)👍

    I appreciated seeing the post-competition tank and how you have kept it thriving. I always wonder how (or if) they hold up in the long run. Most any tank can look fantastic for a few days, but most of us need to create something that will stand the test of time. You know what they say..."Pretty is as pretty does." And this is scape truly "does"!! Also, please ignore the nay-sayers and change nothing regarding your tone and style of commentary. It's so refreshing, allowing the brain to clearly process the information.
