- Опубліковано 7 лис 2024
- The Brazilian-style aquascape is ready. The advanced-style aquascape is heavily planted, ready for the first contest photograph - only after 3 weeks. Hopefully, this will be a good inspiration for all aquascapers preparing for IAPLC 2021. Good luck to all!

I was just about to go to bed, then BAM! Green Aqua drops a video.
Enjoy! :)
I wasn’t awake :(
An hour ago was 6 for me and I stayed up until 3
😁🤜🤛💚
😍
I was asleep and woke up, time for some quick intermission 👂
We Brazilians are very happy to see our master Luca Galarraga being prestigious at Green Aqua. He deserves!
Yes, he does 👍
Proud to see Brazil in the loop of world aquascapers! Congrats Lucas for being such important Brazilian reference and an inspiration worldwide.
😊🙏
Luca Galarraga, you are inspiration for us brazilians.....Luca, suas mãos tinham que ser eternizadas na calçada da fama. Muito obrigado em poder contemplar suas obras inspiradoras!
Awesome guys, and nice to see proper mention about the main style reference….the Brazilian community appreciate this channel a lot (as the whole aquarium community do appreciate).
Thank you for your support, we are big fans of Brazilian style of aquascaping💚
They are not just hands, they are eyes is instinct and above all contemplation of nature and of course master Amano inspiring.
Não são apenas mãos, são olhos é instinto e sobre tudo contemplaçao da natureza e claro mestre Amano inspirando.
Muito bom !
Exactly! I can't agree more!
This is one of your finest works of art to date. In a word; spectacular. You should be very proud.
Glad to read you enjoyed the result 🙏😊
Spectacular for sure 👍💚
😃🙏💚
One of your best yet guys! Congrats to Balazs for making it, my thoughts and prayers for the maintenance guys XD
Thanks mate. Yup i think scissors will be used quite often here 😃👍
My passion for aquascaping began visiting André and Luca atelier, back in Brazil. This occurs 10 years ago and now, in a new land, I still loving and trying to grow up in the hobby.
Great work guy!!!
Yeah, these are really great scapers! THanks for the comment! Cheers!
Brasileiro sendo homenageado aí sim em parabéns Lucas realmente tem obras inspiradoras 👏🏾🇧🇷🍃.
👍🇧🇷💚
Brasileiros (as) voces sabem como colocar fotos do meu aquascape aqui nesse canal da Green Aqua?
Incredible😍.. The path that leads you to the back and the small rocks appear far away in the distance is really cool!!! I love the inspiration you took from Luca's aquascape!!
All the beautiful layers and 104(😂) pots of plants 💪♥️🌿
The perspective and depth that you created is just simply amazing!!
WOW my friend!!
I'm so excited that I got to see the build of this scape. It will definitely be a favorite at Green Aqua and for all of us who watch the channel!!
Balazs well done!!
You, Tommy and everyone at Green Aqua have given me the opportunity to witness greatness every time I get to watch your videos!! Thank you!!! I hope you guys have a truly blessed day 💚🙏🌿🐟🌿💚
Hey Mary thanks for your support. You're our fav fan at Green Aqua 😍
@@GreenAquaShop ♥️🙏🌿🐟🌿💚
Great work and thanks 🙏 for showing the work of Luca, our master in Brasil 🇧🇷. Really important for us. Thanks guys. 👊
Luca is one of the best these days. We're a huge fan of his artwork 👍
Impressive first Brazilian-style scape!
Luca Galarraga is an inspiration and a very good guy. Big Master!
Love that white cloud minnows were added
😃👍🐟
Love the different textures of the plants and how the are all merging together amongst the rocks
Thanks Mandy💚
O Luca é uma pessoa impar, um ser inspirador e detentor de um espirito angelical! Conheci pessoalmente essa personalidade do Aqua Paisagismo... foi um prazer!
He is amazing for sure 👍
Ficou SENSACIONAL!!! Vc nós inspira a cada publicação.
Obrigado. 🇧🇷
😊🙏🇧🇷💚
2-25-21, Balazs you are my inspiration. That is a perfect and gorgeous tank. The hours you spent produced a master piece. I learn so much from you and Green Aqua. Thank You so much. William
Thanks William 🤗 cheers.
Best tank ever by Balazs ❤❤❤❤❤❤. Love this Brazilian style.
Glad you like it 💚
You sure did a great job stepping out of your comfort zone in scaping Brazilian style, very proud of your work, turned out looking stunning wherever I look.
Thanks Lola 🤗Cheers
Yea! Beautiful work Balazs, and thanks for the reference to our master Luca Galarraga, he is unique and the best Brazilian Aquascaper, the way he employs the Nature Aquarium concept inspires us a lot, you should have his aquarium set up in your gallery. And look! he passes this knowledge and this vision on his AQUABASE WORKSHOP, I recommend you to participate one day!
He is an amazing passionate friend. If the covid is over we definitely try to invite him at some point.
It is amazing to see luca galarraga works inpiring others along the world 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Yes, he is very inspiring 🤗
Gyönyörű lett!Gratulálok!Profik vagytok srácok!!
Köszi 😃🙏
Glad to see you embracing more stems. It's a beautiful scape. I love Brazilian most of all. Always so colourful and dynamic.
Not an easy style. Need a lot of attempts to master it. Luca and the Aquabase team lifted this style to another level. 👍
😍 Hardscape perfection. It looks even better planted.
Thank you very much. :)
ゲルゴー？？Translates to Gergo.
What's that? 😅
It's a Hungarian name, so probably the guy's name who the tattoo is on!
That's right. 🤗
That's a Hungarian name 🤗
Love the sand path and details at the foreground
Glad you like it. 👍😁
This is absolutely gorgeous! I love your tank and I love the inspiration tank! It is just so lovely, like a perfect tiny snapshot of nature… If I hadn’t watched your videos I would have no idea the amount of time and effort that went into making this beautiful tank. And thank you so much for doing such an amazing job of explaining as you go along.
Left side is very beautiful, with many crevices fill with such befitting plants combination. Plus all the stone layout combine, the left side really brings out the natural feeling to me. The right side however....16:44 I'm not sure about that "ahem" brown weird old teacup way up front (pretending not to notice the water hose). As much as I love tea... but that cup..gives me this "Jealousy vibe, like someone accidentally drop his granny's cup there to sabotage you.." (not looking at Tommy whatsoever!) then a sight a relief to know that the final contest picture is all good 😀👍 though I must say, the left one really hit home run for me compare to the right one at the end. Despite at first before planting the right side blew me away. I wish you the best of luck for the contest! And thank you for uploading this incredible work!
I like the left side better, I agree! Cheers!
Always very excited to see Mr. Balazs in action. 🌿💚
🤗 Thanks
Very naturally planted. Great work as always.
Thanks, Hussain 👍 It will probably look even better when the plants naturally blends into the scape
Gongratulations!!!
Very good job Green Aqua!!
Very beautiful!!!
Thanks so much 👍😃
Beautiful layout. So many details and plants...
Thank you very much. :)
Assisti o vídeo todo pensando no scape do Galarra e no fim, era sua inspiração! Bom demais! Amo esse estilo aqui do Brasil🇧🇷
😃👍💚🇧🇷
one of the best setup, so nice
This is probably the best tank ever made by you guys
Love to hear you like it 👍
100 pots of plants!! I could only imagine planting them in a single aquascape!!😵 But sure it’s worth the wait and efforts!! It’s beautiful and impactful!!😍🤩
If you have plenty of time to grow plants you can do with half of it, but as a showroom, it needs to look good from day 1. dense planting helps a lot on the trouble-free start btw
Balazs.... This is a piece of art......!!!👏👏👏
Thank you Antonis 👍
Love the design, best of luck in the contest.
Thank you 🙏
Amazing. What a beautiful scape. Well done Mr. B.
It took many hours of dedication to achieve this outcome but, boy o boy it was worth every second.
A sure winner scape for sure.
Stay safe and well everyone at GreenAqua.
Greetings from Cumbria in the U.K.
Thanks Trevor 👍 Cheers
Love this tank just as I imagined the tank looks amazing had a image of the tank with plants and looks exactly the same . Beautiful tank
Glad to hear you enjoyed the content 👍 Thanks for watching
Nice aquascape
😃👍
This is up there with what I’d consider the best and most beautiful planted tanks. It’s inspiring me to add more detail to my own humble 10gal!
Thanks for your words. It means a lot. Glad it helped in some ways
I was waiting to see how this would turn out. As usual Green Aqua never ceases to amaze me. Keep up the great content I'm learning so much.
We still have a lot of limitation when we do these scapes for UA-cam, mostly time, but glad to hear you like the result :
True that😁👍✌️
💚👍
Tough but pleasuring task, I'm sure. Am I right, Mr. Balazs?
Great scape again! Congratulations!
Yes, it was tough but worth it 👍
Dream tank right there! Phenomenal job! 😌
Thanks Armando🤗
Hi from Czech. Very, very good Mr. Balazs! Your progress is very and again very good!!! I Love this tank with plants.
Thank you Petr 😊🙏
Very nice! The contest shoot at the end was amazing too. 👍
Thank you Sergio 💚
Wow Im speechless. This is one of the best scapes I've ever seen
You're very kind.
Thank you very much. :)
This is immediately beautifull, imagine in a few months. Great job Balazs, now Tommy can get to work( extra) since you are done with planting. Great inspiration ,wonderfull result
Tommy' going to deal with it 🤗 Thanks Ed 🤣💚
Absolutely stunning scape Balaz, and your attention to detail is brilliant. I have learnt a lot from these 2 part videos.
Thank you Paul, means a lot 👍
When we wil see Luca Galarraga here on Green Aqua channel?
It looks beautiful. Best of luck in the competition 👍
Thank you Mathew 🤗💚
Love from Mumbai (INDIA) Godddd you make such fantastic scapes that inspire us alot and this is some of the extra ordinary scapes I've ever seen ❤️
Thanks for watching from India 💚🙏
Suitable word for it- " Fabulous".Great job man.Always I enjoy green aqua' s videos.And it was awesome
Glad you like the end result!
Gorgeous!
Really stunningly beautiful!
Thanks Marcie. :)
You make this look so easy
Done my hard scape, plants arrived, spent an hour cleaning plants laying them out on trays, planted then added water and all my scaping wood floated to the top lol
Had to start again at 10 at night 😆
We learned these lessons as well in the past. Next time you will be more careful I guess 😃👍
I’m started getting in love with this hobby during this difficult time it’s really depressing being alone at my house. A good friend of mine offered his 3 gallon fish tank even I’m not into it cause I don’t know if I can take care the fish but surprisingly got my first fish which are black skirt tetras and the next day I bought guppies I’m liking it and decided to upgrade to 10 gallon hoping to get more I have my 45 gallon fish tank now I’m planning to get cichlids soon
So glad you found the hobby♥️especially in these difficult times!!🙏 Plus getting to know others,making friends and sharing has been a blessing for me as well!!! It sounds like you're off to a wonderful start and especially watching Green Aqua!! They bring us so much positivity and so much inspiration it's really cool 💯💪🌿🐟🌿💚
@@marypaigeflynn4512 indeed I just arrived home from PetSmart I just got my 3 types of cichlids yaaay I just put them in quaratine and will release soon with their new home 😍🐠🐟
This is the beginning of what Balaz calls "MTS" or "Multiple tank syndrome," welcome to the club lol
@@AldwinsBlog Wonderful 🙏👍🤗
@@adrianvelasco1265 😆💪🌿🐟🌿
Hey Balaz, how do you deal with the Seiryu stones making the water too hard for the plants? or is that a not an issue? An incredible scape nonetheless!
It's not an issue if you do the weekly water changes with RO water. TDS goes up to about 180-190 but being reset to 120 with water changes.
All the energy and time invested, it worth it. Beautiful layout. Thanks for this. I hope to see you soon. Cheers Green Aqua
Thanks so much! Luis ✌
Looks absolutely amazing 👍👍
Thank you Andrew🙏
Very beautiful result!
Happy to see that you like the video. 👍
It looks great.welldone green aqua
Thanks a lot.
Amazing Tank!!!
Glad you like the video. 👍😁
This hard scape is so beautiful😎🤘 beginner aquadcaper here. Just started watching you're stuff🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thanks for joining in Victoria 💚
This is a masterpiece! Best work!
Thanks a lot. :)
jaw dropping this scape. very very beautiful.
Your new nickname is “The Professor” . .. Every time I watch your Green Aqua videos I totally get SCHOOLED!
W0W, JAW DROPPING. SPEECHLESS. TAKE A BOW SIR.
Nice work with the plant selection Balazs, especially the Calicostella prabaktiana. I feel like it's a moss that has been mentioned enough in the hobby. Now the whole world will know about it. I've just started using it. Eagerly waiting for the results.😊
Holy crap Balazs. Some might say you could open a small aquascaping shop with what went into that tank 😳😉🤣
I was really looking forward to this episode. Watching 1 m away from the 49" 4K TV I use as my primary work monitor and taking in every pixel. Best stress relief therapy. You guys do not disappoint! Respect. Köszi!👍
Glad you liked this video 🤗 1 m is not too close?🤣
@@GreenAquaShop My peripheral vision still encompasses the whole screen. I wouldn't watch a movie from that distance, but for work I wouldn't want anything less.
💚👍
$1500 worth of plants in the states. That’s why y’all are the best!
🙃 Thanks Richard 👍
I love this type of aquarium .
Yup somewhere between the minimal and the dutch stemmy tanks
wow this is a fine job and very beautiful 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Appreciate it 👍
Absolutely stunning! Thank you for sharing Balanzs! Cannot wait to see this in a few more weeks! Very inspiring!
Thanks for watching. Will keep you updated 😃👍
It was such a beautiful hardscape, was... As plants destroyed masterpiece.
Well, we have different taste 🤗But your point of view is welcomed 👍
@@GreenAquaShop Certainly we have different tastes/views. Let's wait and see how it will develop. 😉
👍
So, this is your best scape... looks totaly perfect. I must come and see this on my own eyes. When it will be possible, of course. Keep on scaping.😉🤘
Please, you 're welcome to our gallery 🤗
Planted my first ever aquascape three days ago!! I hope what I've learnt works. Personally I'm really happy with it as my first ever time doing one :)
Hey congratulation for your first tank 🤗
Just fantastic!!!
Great!!!
Thanks a lot. :)
You're always the top, sooner or later I can visit you at the store, say hello from the Italian guys
Would be awesome to welcoming you
Thank you......
Very professional tank setup🙏🌹
Thank you, glad you like it 🤗
Maravilloso trabajo... Cada día mejoras con tus proyectos. Son una gran inspiración para esta comunidad.
🙏💚
Love Brazilian style, love your work Balazs 🌿
Thanks Pete💚
LOVE IT...LOVE IT...LOVE IT!!!
Thanks Ruud. :)
Animal!!! Like we say in Brazil!! Great job guys 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 I also have been inspired by Luca’s tank last year and since I follow you guys and others friends of this channel I decided to give it a shot!! Thanks a lot you’d guys brought me a beautiful hobby and I am in love!! Of course I don’t have 100kg of hard scape and not even 7 species of plants on my tank!! Everything is so expensive here in Australia but hopefully I can get my tank to the IAPLC 2021!!
Fingers crossed André, you don't need these many species for a good ranking, I'm sure! Good luck!
Amazed by the quality and details of this scape! Congrats and cheers from Brazil! ♥
(Feeling also happy for being one of the comments to bring up Galarraga on the previous video, haha)
💚 Yep you were right 👍

Amazing looking scape. I truly need to take my aqua scapes to a new level. Thank your or the inspiration.
Happy to see that you like the video. 👍
Wonderful scaping! Keep it up and also please give more ideas about small aquarium scaping such as 40 liters or so. Thank you once again for bringing these beautiful videos to us. Love and respect from India.
Noted! Thanks for the support!
Oh boy! I love when the creator recognize the inspiration and the influence of the work of other people in his scape.
Maybe some cheater spanish guy should learn about this!
Luca is amazing. We've been inspired by their teamwork, spirit, creativity, and passion for many years now.
White cloud minnows, awesome choice, I just added my long fin white clouds. Beautiful aquascape, I made my aquarium very similar but on a smaller scale lol. Love your videos can’t wait for the next. Cheers!
Wowww!!! Great job Balazs..
From Philippines
Thank you 💚
What a beautiful tank! But maintaining will be such a hell of the ride :D
Yeah maintenance is not always fun, but the end result will worth it 😃👍
