The week 4 teaser 😫!! Oh well, the journey’s the best part, right? I love the textures in this scape - wood, stone, plants, botanicals! Amazing! Keep up the great work!
I love blackwater aquariums and you have created a beautiful one. I know how long this takes to film and edit, great work and your efforts paid off. Will you be doing species from south america, africa, or asia for this blackwater? I could see any of the three working out well. Looking forward to seeing this tank mature, take care.
Thanks Phil. The stocking will be decided by what is available to me at the moment. But definitely a small school of tetras or something similar, maybe an apistogramma, some type of gourami and some corydoras on the bottom. As I said all depends on the availability of the fish.
Hey if your open to suggestions, I think you should add small African fish to this tank and make it an African biotope. If you need species names I gladly tell
As I mentioned in a previous comment I will probably go with some dwarf cichlid, appistograma, corydoras and school of tetras or something. Its the easiest fish to get and I don't need to wait for months. But tell me what you had in mind, future will bring many more tanks and I need some stocking ideas.
Some of the fish I know, some I dont. But just by looking at the names I would wait months to get them. They will all go on my shortlist for future builds.

The pieces of wood are amazing 😍.
I took me days to combine them. But I am very happy with the result.
Just found your channel. Keep up the great videos.
Thanks Tuan.
The week 4 teaser 😫!! Oh well, the journey’s the best part, right?
I love the textures in this scape - wood, stone, plants, botanicals! Amazing!
Keep up the great work!
Its all about the journey.
Wow! Very beautiful tank 😍 Can’t wait to see what fish will live here!
Surprise fish.
Blackwater tanks are some of my favorites to aquascape and observe overtime. I definitely recommend a school of lampeye rasbora or cardinal tetras
Thanks Toby. Stocking will be decided on what is available at the moment. I am planning to do more blackwater aquariums in the future .
Samo jako ;) bravo!
💪💪💪
Again, another beautiful tank and very well made video. Can't wait to see the updates for this. 👍
Thanks Chris. Update is coming soon.
evereythings all perfect
All is good :)
This is great! I love it 👏👍
This video is 10/10
Hvala Vladimire. Will be even better with time and especially when I add fish.

Well maybe next time
Barbus fasciatus ( African based barb)
Pareutropis buffei ( African three-stripe catfish)
Phractura lindica ( African lizard whiptail catfish)
Ladigesia roloffi (Jellybean tetra)
And lastly my favorite fish
Microsyndontis batsii (Dwarf syndontis)
Some of the fish I know, some I dont. But just by looking at the names I would wait months to get them. They will all go on my shortlist for future builds.
Appreciate it dude
Wait, what species do you know?
