hey Mark, it was a very nice weekend, with a lot of fun and really good aquariums. I was very happy that you were our guest and I hope we will see each other again soon.
Great Video! I really like the scape of yours. It was a pleasure to meet you in person. And I vote for number 4, I love the variety of plants and deep impact of small lava rocks and snake wood in the back of your tank.
I liked 2, you can view them as like underwater tree roots or maybe giant elderly trees, and the variety of plants makes it very cool. The rest were awesome and once the plants bloom big, they'll be amazing!
honestly I like yours the best...that wood and the way you placed it reminds me of when I was a kid exploring a small river by my house where I would see tree roots growing in the water along the bank edges.
Hi Marc! Here as a family we had 3 votes for number 1, 1 vote for number 3 and 1 vote for number 4. Thank you for the video, I really liked it! Thank you for sharing your work!
Wow!! Can't pick a favourite. They're all so different. Love seeing the diversity in aquascapers visions. Thank you everyone. You're all so talented!🤩Thank you Mark for sharing this with us
All the tanks look amazing. Can't choose just one. The wood you had available for hard scape is so cool. I don't have anything remotely close to those selections where I am. Same would apply to rocks and stones. All of you looked like you were having a ton of fun. Enjoyed watching. Thanks for sharing the day with us.
This kind of reminds me of those aquascaping competitions. Great work and Im looking forward to more of your creations! People should definitely be interested in your work even if they don't keep fish.
Fun to see you all do such a friendly competition. Tank 2 is my favorite. A style different from what I have seen so far. It feels like there is an atmosphere to it; like an old haunted forest, with trees observing you... I wonder how he managed to add so many plants in the little time he had left?
AMAZING AND SO BEAUTIFUL ! Each of you gets the gold cup🏆🏆🏆🏆 Four guys with picking from the same supplies and all four similar sized tanks are all so incredibly different, The compositions....The textures....The contrast....The choice of species....ALL DIFFERENT MASTERPIECES OF ART !!! I can't wait to see the later "grow in" ... I am just soooo WOWED 😍 😲 😍 Thanks for sharing this great fun event 🙏
All of these tanks are so fantastic! Clearly you all love and have major skills in the craft! I love all of these tanks for various different reasons. Promise you'll show us an update in 3 to 6 months! This was also a nice change of pace from your usual videos. I certainly don't mind when you switch up the formula occasionally. Just keep providing top notch content as you have been.
I love them all, do love the second one with roots looking like they are attached to rocks, but really love the tree trunk 4th one. I mean I love them all, they are all different and gorgeous! Love the color of the wood in # 1, and love the big trunks in #2, but not the center area. I think the ferns you used in yours are gorgeous. Not a fan of the funky tree tops of 2. But love them all, #3 love the rocks, but needs more greenery. Those leaves with the holes like lace in them would look gorgeous, matching the rocks in #3
Impressive work from all, 3 hours is no time at all to complete a scape on this scale 👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻 I’ll be honest, your tank is my favourite, executed so well. You made the best use of the time with good hardscape choices, super detailed wood to add the wow factor without complicated construction. Most of the heavy planting is relatively simple, but high impact to give a more finished result, with time then being available for the more detailed carpet and background which again add extra levels of refinement to the scape. I also really like the forest style scape, but feel your tank has a more complete feel. Credit to each scaper though, all impressive works and with a little more time would have had that super refined look. Another great video too, so well put together holding interest throughout 🙌🏻👊🏻👊🏻 Also, credit to the store owner, it looks like an aquascapers hardscape heaven and the displays are just incredible 👌🏻
I enjoyed this video. It was a nice mix of watching you work and the other scapers too. The tour of all the established tanks in the store was awesome. All of the tanks turned out very nice. Each one was different, but it showcased each person's abilities. I liked your use of the snake wood and the lava rocks. I've learned so much from watching you. I also like tank #2, with the large pieces of wood. What kind of wood was that?
All look great 😁 Nice to see how different they all turned out. But…That’s the amazing thing about this artwork. Never knowing how things turn out in the end. A really funny idea too.
This is great! Sure a high tank can be made to work (as shown here) but having a deeper tank (front to back) opens up so many more possibilities. I'm setting up a 2nd hand Juwel which is higher than deep, and it's a struggle for a noob like me. But I'm sure the result will be somewhat presentable. 😅
All Fantastic, very hard to choose until grown in. This video was super enjoyable, I would have loved it to be longer. Lots of talent on display. Please do an update if possible.
I bet that was lots of fun! I can't imagine just having anything you could possibly want right there. I think I like the way the cork trees look the most, but it's hard to say which one I like the best.
Hi Marc! Here as a family we have 1 vote for number 3, 3 votes for number 1 and 1 vote for number 4. Thank you for the video, I really liked it! Thank you for sharing your work!
All the scapes were fabulous… and each would look amazing and suit housing particular species of fish… but your scape was my favourite with scape 2 coming in very close! I really enjoy your videos and love all your set ups and the fact you scape nano tanks shows us all how a small aquarium can be as equally stunning as larger ones. I’ve just watched your DIY Co2 video. You mentioned that some people say a down side to a DIY system is the Co2 can’t be regulated as there is no valve. Could you not use an airline tubing plastic air regulator valve used to control the air output from an air pump to regulate the Co2 or would that cause a lack of pressure by Co2 escaping? Thanks in advance.
How can we choose a best tank out of these four masterpieces? It is like trying to pick which pile of gold we want when they are all the same value, only stacked differently. I can only be in dazzled envy, and amazement of such beautiful creations!
Well 2 is different never seen that style before does look neat, ideally in a few months when plants have grown in have a update 2 min video on each but for now I’m split 2/4 then 3 and then 1. Oh crazy depth on the aqua soil is that not wasted, I would have filled some bags with some small rocks as filler it’s cheaper too.
My nano tank is mostly pennywort and wisteria, constant pruning problem, so I faver the minimal approach in plants. Some grass, some Java Sword etc. No wood, just big rocks and the plants.
At first I was like, yea MJ has the best tank, but actually they are all nice. I would love to see them in 3 months and 6 months again. Will you do a follow up video?
Faints at sight of hardscape section 😮 That black lava stone looks great and I understand it’s good for surface area for filtration and beneficial bacteria.
Your tank and tank 2 are soooo good. Tank number 3 had a lot of potential but it doesn't feel complete, can't really tell what it is but I guess when the plants will have grown it will look a lot better. And tank 1 feels off because of the way the branches were cut but I guess it can be fixed with some moss or something. Not a big fan of the oase scaperline/highline aquariums tbh I think open top tanks look a lot better. I feel the aluminium edges and the dark blue background doesn't enhance the lushness of the plants and the hardscape. Great video as always, cheers!
#3 is so different to what I normally see so I think I like that the best. They're all pretty damn amazing though. Good to get an update photo when they are fully established and grown in after a few more weeks
Hello Mark, Are the tanks you guys scaped still in the store at this point? I will be visiting Cologne during the first week of April 2024. And I really want to make a detour to Zoobox to see all the scapes and variaties of plants and fish. I'd love to see you guys' tanks in real life. Love the vids!
I would love to see them 1 1/2 or 2 month from now, when the are grown in. They are all amazing, but i think 2 and 4 are the best. I t would be really nice to see them with fish and other inhabitants 😉
Thomas number two (LOL, I mean Thomas Lonnig)'s tank looks almost like mature set up, but quite intimadating indeed. Cant wait to see all set ups in coming weeks/months. [Will it be updated?]

HI Mark!! I love the nature style... your tank fuel my joy haha, is my favorite
Carloses tank no.3
No. 1
hey Mark, it was a very nice weekend, with a lot of fun and really good aquariums. I was very happy that you were our guest and I hope we will see each other again soon.
Thanks for having me!
Hallo zoobox fiele Grüße an Tomas
Ist schön mal wieder ein etwas längeres Video von euch zu sehen beziehungsweise über euch oder mit euch
This collaboration was great❤
I love the thick logs on number 2, it feels really solid
It would be great to see an update of how all these tanks look now after over a month of growth.
Great Video! I really like the scape of yours. It was a pleasure to meet you in person. And I vote for number 4, I love the variety of plants and deep impact of small lava rocks and snake wood in the back of your tank.
I really like the number 2, the wood pieces are just amazing 👍
#2 I love the wood "trees" in Thomas' scape but they are all phenomenal. That wood is gorgeous~!
They all look unique and awesome in their own way...
I liked 2, you can view them as like underwater tree roots or maybe giant elderly trees, and the variety of plants makes it very cool.
The rest were awesome and once the plants bloom big, they'll be amazing!
Tank 1 was by far the nicest and most complete looking tank!
honestly I like yours the best...that wood and the way you placed it reminds me of when I was a kid exploring a small river by my house where I would see tree roots growing in the water along the bank edges.
Hi Marc! Here as a family we had 3 votes for number 1, 1 vote for number 3 and 1 vote for number 4. Thank you for the video, I really liked it! Thank you for sharing your work!
LOVE THIS! PLEASE post an update on all 4!
For initial reaction, #3. For potential, #2. They all look great though!
Wow!! Can't pick a favourite. They're all so different. Love seeing the diversity in aquascapers visions. Thank you everyone. You're all so talented!🤩Thank you Mark for sharing this with us
Mark, I genuinely like yours the best. But, they’re all amazing.
Mark, great video! I’m a big fan of yours but I have to vote for Tank No. 1 in this video. Keep up the great work!
I really like number 3, simple and very open space for fish's
#2 because the thick logs and vertical scape was unusual and very interesting. Like them all though. Great job.
Love your vids...and your voice is very soothing and calming....well done
All the tanks look amazing. Can't choose just one. The wood you had available for hard scape is so cool. I don't have anything remotely close to those selections where I am. Same would apply to rocks and stones. All of you looked like you were having a ton of fun. Enjoyed watching. Thanks for sharing the day with us.
This kind of reminds me of those aquascaping competitions. Great work and Im looking forward to more of your creations! People should definitely be interested in your work even if they don't keep fish.
they all look great!!!! Im loving 2
not a snowballs chance I could ever be a judge, each one is unique, and beautiful!😊
Fun to see you all do such a friendly competition. Tank 2 is my favorite. A style different from what I have seen so far. It feels like there is an atmosphere to it; like an old haunted forest, with trees observing you... I wonder how he managed to add so many plants in the little time he had left?
Great set ups! The best hard scape before planting was easily Carlos!
Some of the best Aquascaping Iv seen!
If I ever come to Netherlands , I would visit your shop . Thats my dream . You inspired me to take up this hobby
AMAZING AND SO BEAUTIFUL ! Each of you gets the gold cup🏆🏆🏆🏆 Four guys with picking from the same supplies and all four similar sized tanks are all so incredibly different, The compositions....The textures....The contrast....The choice of species....ALL DIFFERENT MASTERPIECES OF ART !!! I can't wait to see the later "grow in" ... I am just soooo WOWED 😍 😲 😍 Thanks for sharing this great fun event 🙏
Love Carlos' work.
It is so sensitive, natural and clean.
❤❤
Very cool video Mark! I think it’s between 1-4! Great job mate 👏
Awsome content MJ, I enjoyed a lot. Har to tell which one is the most interesting/beautifull. Maybe #2 due to its originality.
This video was epic bro! thank you! Great content, all for free.💚💚2-4 were my favorites. Hard to decide between the two honestly.
All of these tanks are so fantastic! Clearly you all love and have major skills in the craft! I love all of these tanks for various different reasons. Promise you'll show us an update in 3 to 6 months! This was also a nice change of pace from your usual videos. I certainly don't mind when you switch up the formula occasionally. Just keep providing top notch content as you have been.
I think they all Look great in their own way, good Job guys😊
All scapes were fantastic and some good inspiration for my next scape 🙌
I love them all, do love the second one with roots looking like they are attached to rocks, but really love the tree trunk 4th one. I mean I love them all, they are all different and gorgeous! Love the color of the wood in # 1, and love the big trunks in #2, but not the center area. I think the ferns you used in yours are gorgeous. Not a fan of the funky tree tops of 2.

Most of the heavy planting is relatively simple, but high impact to give a more finished result, with time then being available for the more detailed carpet and background which again add extra levels of refinement to the scape.
I also really like the forest style scape, but feel your tank has a more complete feel.
Credit to each scaper though, all impressive works and with a little more time would have had that super refined look.
Another great video too, so well put together holding interest throughout 🙌🏻👊🏻👊🏻
Also, credit to the store owner, it looks like an aquascapers hardscape heaven and the displays are just incredible 👌🏻
You are too kind Ady!
We really like this video. We had such an amazing scaping day 💪. See you soon
I enjoyed this video. It was a nice mix of watching you work and the other scapers too. The tour of all the established tanks in the store was awesome. All of the tanks turned out very nice.

All Fantastic, very hard to choose until grown in. This video was super enjoyable, I would have loved it to be longer. Lots of talent on display. Please do an update if possible.
You guys are all professionals. Everyone has their own unique style. Great content.
Rápido e lindo! Deve ser muito divertido e prazeroso viver o aquapaisagismo! Parabéns irmão!!
I bet that was lots of fun! I can't imagine just having anything you could possibly want right there. I think I like the way the cork trees look the most, but it's hard to say which one I like the best.
Amazing! I love to see a update after some weeks how it looks like, greetings from Amsterdam, keep up the good work!
Very nice work from all members 🎉
But personaly i like your tank most!
Keep up the good work 😉👍🤟
Hi Marc! Here as a family we have 1 vote for number 3, 3 votes for number 1 and 1 vote for number 4. Thank you for the video, I really liked it! Thank you for sharing your work!
These are all great. I'd love to see a followup video in 3 months
All the scapes were fabulous… and each would look amazing and suit housing particular species of fish… but your scape was my favourite with scape 2 coming in very close!
I really enjoy your videos and love all your set ups and the fact you scape nano tanks shows us all how a small aquarium can be as equally stunning as larger ones.

Thanks in advance.
The're all amazing. If a I had to choose, I couldn't . Great video!
Love the video! All the tanks are really nice and can’t wait to see them grow in! I gotta vote for 1
Amazing scapes guys, I liked number 1 the most 😊
great job!! in my opinion is Carlos number one!
Amazing job! This is My Top#5 favorites for sure!! 👏🏼🔥
All are beautiful…if I have to choose a fav…#2
How can we choose a best tank out of these four masterpieces? It is like trying to pick which pile of gold we want when they are all the same value, only stacked differently. I can only be in dazzled envy, and amazement of such beautiful creations!
#3 as I love the dramatic design and will look superb with a large shoal of fish
Amazing aquarium shop 😍
Great video! I love the format!
Zbiornik nr 3. Przepiękne, wspaniałe wykonanie.😁👍👏
I like all setups, we will need update on this in couple of months, development must be interesting.
Well 2 is different never seen that style before does look neat, ideally in a few months when plants have grown in have a update 2 min video on each but for now I’m split 2/4 then 3 and then 1. Oh crazy depth on the aqua soil is that not wasted, I would have filled some bags with some small rocks as filler it’s cheaper too.
amazing video
Number three, but they all turned out amazing!
My nano tank is mostly pennywort and wisteria, constant pruning problem, so I faver the minimal approach in plants. Some grass, some Java Sword etc. No wood, just big rocks and the plants.
Great episode and amazing results, thanks for sharing!
Not surprising the Dutch guy is on schedule and organized. 😂
Thank you for the store tour, we just don’t have stores like this where I am.
At first I was like, yea MJ has the best tank, but actually they are all nice. I would love to see them in 3 months and 6 months again. Will you do a follow up video?
I liked all tanks, but 2nd more unique for me.
Greetings from Kazakhstan. 🇰🇿👋
Rakhmet🤝
Thanks for the video. It was great. I go with #3
3 and 4 are my favourites but they're all incredible!
Faints at sight of hardscape section 😮 That black lava stone looks great and I understand it’s good for surface area for filtration and beneficial bacteria.
absolutely yours MJ 😍
Two of my favorite UA-camrs in one video. Carlos from pezverde and MJaquascaping.
Loved tank 2! Totally different. Although they were all top dollar really
Your tank and tank 2 are soooo good. Tank number 3 had a lot of potential but it doesn't feel complete, can't really tell what it is but I guess when the plants will have grown it will look a lot better. And tank 1 feels off because of the way the branches were cut but I guess it can be fixed with some moss or something. Not a big fan of the oase scaperline/highline aquariums tbh I think open top tanks look a lot better. I feel the aluminium edges and the dark blue background doesn't enhance the lushness of the plants and the hardscape. Great video as always, cheers!
It was really a great event and of course, I have no favourite …. All of them are great and in a few weeks they are spectacular 😊🤪🤩🥳
great video! Can you also make sure we can see the tanks again in a month or so?
Love all the tanks but I think I have to give it to you Mark❤🎉
#3 is so different to what I normally see so I think I like that the best.
They're all pretty damn amazing though. Good to get an update photo when they are fully established and grown in after a few more weeks
I like them all for different reasons. It’s awesome that they’re all uniquely their own.
This collaboration was nice, I'm picking tank #2.
It's between tank 1 or 2 for me but really they all look amazing.
#2 is my fav. It reminds me of a pine forest. HOW DO DOES HE KEEP CORK ROUNDS FROM FLOATING!!!!!???? We need more details....PLEASE.
I liked them all!
Anyway, #3 and #4 are a little bit more beautiful than the others.
All stunning.But my style is MJ so Well Done.
Greate work, nice video, please make update of this tanks. I love your content.
Hello Mark,
Are the tanks you guys scaped still in the store at this point? I will be visiting Cologne during the first week of April 2024. And I really want to make a detour to Zoobox to see all the scapes and variaties of plants and fish. I'd love to see you guys' tanks in real life.
Love the vids!
Yeah the tanks should be there! We made them for the Interzoo exhibition which will happen in May.
looks like it was a great time.
Be nice to see an update in 2-4 weeks to see how they grew in.
I would love to see them 1 1/2 or 2 month from now, when the are grown in. They are all amazing, but i think 2 and 4 are the best. I t would be really nice to see them with fish and other inhabitants 😉
Wow all looks awsome🎉
Very nice ! What type of filter do you use for big fish tank ?
Will never see a fish store of this quality and amount of aquascaping candy in the US
all as good as each other, good job all.
Thomas number two (LOL, I mean Thomas Lonnig)'s tank looks almost like mature set up, but quite intimadating indeed. Cant wait to see all set ups in coming weeks/months. [Will it be updated?]
Hi from Czechia 👋
Hey everbody, could we please get an update on how the tanks developed? Cheers
N° 3 is looking great!
Honestly, I liked yours the most. But in 3 hours you all did amazing scapes. What was the taller fern like plant you used on top of each island.
That was a massive bolbitis 😊
I first thought bolbitis but decided it couldnt be because of its size. I should of guessed as it is German standard 😆
Oh, and thank you
