This is truly another masterclass of high end aquascaping! Enjoyed every single minute, highly inspiring and very educational. Thank you very much Philip for granting spectacular insights behind the scenes and for sharing your thoughts and concepts behind this layout. And if course, thanks Jurijs for sharing this!
I see that a lot of people don't appreciate diorama style. I'm new to aquascaping so I don't fully understand why people don't like this setup. I think it looks really beautiful and something I would try to replicate or have in my house tank. Also what a beautiful store, I wish I had aquascaping stores like this where I live. Truly am jealous
Sooo educational. Love the detailed explanations of maintenance, initial setup for lighting / water changes, dosing regimen and parameters. I’m battling algae in my setup so this super helpful!
Great video, awesome and very detailed tank. Really enjoyed having Philip talk at great length about his diorama aquascape as it was very interesting and he gave some great tips. Beautiful shop, definitely hope to visit one day
i'm really thinking of doing my first diorama tank. This video was inspiring and overwhelming at the same time. I am going to start most likely with a nano tank. Thanks for the knowledge and will be following your videos to learn more!
Stunning scape, I have a whole new appreciation for diorama design. I Learbed a lot about drift wood scales. Love the suggestion to let wood aquarium cycle a couple weeks implanted with filtration and no lights.
Hi Jurijs, great informative video. Philip is a real artist,great sense of depth and scale. Not a massive fan of dioramas, but this one does have something that appeals to me. Philip’s explanation of the set up process and maintenance was very good and clearly explained. I wish them all good luck with the new store. All the best,Martin
Jurijs wow. Thanks for sharing these awesome scapers with us. Extremely insperational although diaramas is something I will never try myself. I'm just too impatient to wait for the scape to evolve and grow into what it was intended to look like.
This was a very beneficial 'Pro Tip' packed video. Thank you both Jurijs & a special thank you to Philip. I look forward to your next visit to Liquid Nature/Philip :)
Great video. I am doing a very challenging high-tech aquascape at the moment. I have a mountain made of seiryu stone in a 1ft by 3ft tank and I too am looking at the same challenges when it comes to creating multiple perspective points that create a great dioramma. The advice he gave in the interview was quite outstanding, and I enjoyed the video. Mosses that do not attach, moving rocks, and the use of larger foreground planting, brown shrimp and avoiding slime - were all excellent points and great tips. I was surprised to see how the background lighting was achieved.
@@JurijsJutjajevs my pleasure! And I'm trying to adapt the art of aquascaping to a kind of aquas-poor-scaping😁: woods and stones collected in the wild, homemade CO2, substrate with a inert layer; and buying just the plants.
Ein wirklich tolles Aquarium. Ich finde es immer wieder bewundernswert wie es gelingt diese Tiefenwirkung zu erzeugen, trotz dieser winzigen Tiefe von nur 40cm. Ich glaube in ein paar Jahren, wenn meine kleinen Zwerge nicht mehr ständig mitgestalten wollen, wage ich mich auch mal an ein Diorama heran [und sofern ich noch ein weiteres Aquarium aufstellen darf] ;)
Nature Aquarium is the winner for me, but I appreciate the skill and clever techniques to create the enhanced sense of scale and depth that many people use in this style and this is something to be emulated in the Nature Aquarium style.
I had this crazy idea to start my new aquarium with no lights and plants and now i am hearing it from an expert. In fact I contemplate on how to proceed with the scaping and this guy is like speaking loud my ideas. I am so happy i am not crazy and the solutions i came up with in my mind for creating a successful aquarium worked for someone else, especially when we talk about competitional level.
This is remarkable. Stunning scape. Love all the petite plants on the ground . It's like looking into a deep Forrest. I'm not a big fan of using so much moss on the branches though. I like seeing the wood.
Leave it to the Austrians and Germans to synthesize all of this art and science and come up with these beautiful aquariums. I was fortunate to be able to visit Vienna and I was overwhelmed. Even these neighborhoods where this shop exists are very nice. Keep up the good work Liquid Nature. Ausgezeichnet und vielen dank.
I love the left side of the tank. Looks natural and wild. It's a bit of a clash of styles happening in the middle right that looks confused and out of place with the large open space and mountain style colliding with the forest style. Also, that line of uprights branches on the right looks a bit too formulaic and a thing we have seen too much of. It sounds like I'm critical but it's a very well executed scape. Clearly a talented and dedicated young man.
Once I took a glance at this wonderful scape in one of your previous videos, I immediately wished for more information. Thanks a lot for doing so much for the community, as a newbie I really appreciate what you are doing. This is a beautyful tank and a true inspiration!
Wow guys, that's a really nice scape. Philip did a great job. You are both stunning artists. :) I have a question for you Jurij. Maybe you can help me. For a week now I have had a drystart with a hardwood root i found. And i have a solid mold form on this. I'm already scraping off and spraying with cinnamon water. But it keeps coming back. What would you do? I'm already thinking of glueing my mosses and buces and just flooding the tank. But actually I wanted to sit it out for a few weeks. I would appreciate an idea.
Jurijs....can you please make a video on lean dosing techniques...there seems to be so many parameters to consider in this type of dosing....unlike the Estimative index style...
If you take the time for 3 weeks setting up the hardscape, what is about the soil and substrates in it?Do you have to get it wet or smthg or do you leave it alone in an open aquarium with no water or something else?
Philip Schwarz said he used superglue and "secret filter"(?) To create a strong bond when gluing wood pieces together. Can anyone elaborate? What is this "secret filter"? (If that is what he's saying). Anyway, a pretty rare detailed insight into the procedure and thought behind a great scape. Much appreciated.
He is actually saying "sigaret filter" so no real secret there. You can buy big bags of (unused) sigaret filters really cheap. If you break open a filter you get a sort of dense floss, put that inbetween the two pieces of hardscape you want to glue together and drip on some super glue, the filter will act as a filler for the glue. and makes a really strong connection between two randomly shapep pieces. You can even add a sprinkling of baking soda before you add the glue to get an expanding effect and really fill the gaps!
@@JurijsJutjajevs : Cheers mate....really enjoying your contents lately....you've really been keeping things very interesting. I am sure it must be extremely hectic....considering your very active lifestyle...😊 Love your pro tips series... If i may....would you consider making a "Plant Species" series? Meaning your tips on how to grow a particular species of plant....how to place it in a way that it would look amazing in an aquascape, the plants growth needs as per your experience etc...? I am sure there are many who would love to hear it from you
Anyone have any comments regarding what he said about only having filter sponges for biological media because solid media consumes ferts? It's the first i've heard anything like that.
you have people who use massive biological filter media and dose more, and you have other people who almost remove filter media, or only use mechanical filtration inside the canister filter because as for biological filtration water changes and biomass inside your aquarium can do the job if the aquarium is stocked and dosed with nutrients accordingly. both works ;)
Please do more videos with this guy. He is so smart and knowledgeable.

Это лучший мастер-класс, который я видел за последние несколько месяцев! Браво!
Wow Jurijs, Philip is a true artist! Most beautiful dioramas I've ever seen. Thanks for sharing👍👍👍
WOW! Philip's aquascape is amazing! Stunning! Beautiful!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ need more from Phillip, he actually knows what he’s talking about!
I really like his style of aquascaping. awesome.
This guy is on another level! I just want to build an aquascape that looks decent. This guy is an artist.
Wow Phillip really knows his stuff ! Beautiful scape and covered everything
That scape is breathtaking and love how he all explained it! 😍
great video juris... more like this. i love the pro tips from aquascapers. especially for contests!

Beautiful diorama!!! Thank you for the interview - very informative!
Videoslike this are the best, never to old to learn
Very detailed aquascapes, and he seems passionate about his work and the hobby.
Despite of all your awesome aquascaping skills, you seem to be a jolly good fellow! You've got a fan in Brazil🇧🇷👍🏾
Sooo educational. Love the detailed explanations of maintenance, initial setup for lighting / water changes, dosing regimen and parameters.
I’m battling algae in my setup so this super helpful!
Thank you Philip, that is so beautiful, I am inspired.
Thank you Jurijs for sharing Philp's tips. Bunny hugs to your bunnies. 🐇🐇🐇

Very detailed tips and advice given to us, thank you!! Jurijs please do a nice tour of the other scapes there!! thanks a lot.
This guy needs his own channel! Great video Jurijs!
Great presentation Jurijs and Philip. Will visit the shop as soon as I am in Vienna.
Stunning scape, I have a whole new appreciation for diorama design. I Learbed a lot about drift wood scales. Love the suggestion to let wood aquarium cycle a couple weeks implanted with filtration and no lights.
I love this scape. The bottom detail is very good.

Fantastic video, he is very gifted. I would love a full shop tour.
wow really smart guy this was a very good video fantastic thank you keep up the good work
Fantastic work. Thanks for sharing this.

Wow what a beautiful aquarium and good tips for beginners like me. The most important one for me, taking time to build up the hard scape.
Yes you are right, I have put the wrong words into the sentence. Meant to say good tips for me as a beginner.
Thank you for video. This is next level.
He is an artist such a genius I love it
Iaplc world ranking #1
Subbed to Liquid Nature.
Clever fela, nice scape and I like natural materials he used, e.g. lava, lot of wood.
Thanks for putting this out.
This was a very beneficial 'Pro Tip' packed video. Thank you both Jurijs & a special thank you to Philip. I look forward to your next visit to Liquid Nature/Philip :)
I definitely have to visit them again!

Great job, love from India.

Beuttifull aquascape.

Luckily, NA style is back in the top 27 of iaplc since 2,3 years.
Wow 😀😀😀😀😀
Beautiful and priceless content! Thanks so much guys!
The scapes look like under water forests 💚
HOw does Phillip recommend attaching moss to hard scrape? His method looked so natural!!
I super love all this but seems like you need to be a genius to learn all of it
Would appreciate a captioned version, I cannot hear Philip over the music.
Does he have instageam him self? I love that nano scape...
Do you have any "pro-tip" for planted aquariuns with sump? Soon my 120x50x50 (300Liters) gonna be ready and I´m planning to use a sump!
If you take the time for 3 weeks setting up the hardscape, what is about the soil and substrates in it?Do you have to get it wet or smthg or do you leave it alone in an open aquarium with no water or something else?
how do you prevent moses to spread around the setup when you trim it?
👍
💕👍💕
How long can you maintain such an detailed aquascape before it really starts to lose its shape?
😎👍👍👍

(If that is what he's saying). Anyway, a pretty rare detailed insight into the procedure and thought behind a great scape. Much appreciated.

Like the style but how do you avoid dead spots in valleys and what not
Multiple filters help create flow in every corner of the layout. If necessary one can use additional flow pumps
What test kits does he use?
And how often does he check his KH & GH ?

this guy is a f***ing genus it is shame that we don't see him moor on youtube and specially in English
