Here we revisit two of TGM's display aquariums- Come and see them in our planted tank showroom. Sub/Like/Follow us for more updates and videos. Do you like how they have changed over time?
Tank 1 is Altitude
Tank 2 is Escarpment
In Escarpment (the second tank), the stones have been covered in moss making it look much older. Watch our first video for this tank and read our step-by-step article here: ow.ly/pElI309VfLc

I'm right in the middle of aquascaping my new 175L tank with this video running. Your 'scapes have inspired me no end! Thank you.

[@TheGreenMachineLtd]

Glad to hear it- enjoy your aquascaping!

[@mimioaquarium8444]

So beautiful.
I also want to reach this level.

[@cyberkitty172639]

I wish there was more scaping for nano aquariums! I'm thinking about ideas to plant my 6 gallon tank! ^~^ The tank itself has a pentagon sort of shape, so I'm having a bit of a hard time where to put the focal point! And also Great Video! I always learn something new from all of these! Keep up the good work!

The second "scape" is amazingly beautiful.. what plant is that, in the bottom at the foot of the hardscape (the red one)?

[@MrKarim992]

Alternanthera reineckii 'mini' most likely

[@jyorra9278]

beautiful, love you work! but i'm interested in the filtration system you use? in some of you builds you almost can se it. do you think you can make a video? or tell us what you are using? best regards from norway :)

[@morrisfalker2773]

First one, tank with attitude.. i mean altitude, one of my favorites. Great work !

[@simonpieman1653]

piling rocks up to the top seems pointless when you could have used plants of different heights. You cant see the rocks now and those rocks actually cost a fortune like the co2 setup👎

[@GiantCake]

Would you recommend the ADA Aquasky lights? Which model is good? I am planning to do a tank with the dimensions roughly 60x30x36 and is on a rather lower budget. I do understand that the lights are non adjustable and can only fit a specific length. If not, what other options of LED lighting would you recommend?

[@travisera1]

Hey, old people. That resonant frequency that you play for ambiance is loud af.

[@mayaburns321]

On one hand, I want to be original. On the other hand, nothing I ever do could compare.

[@moni_chan8040]

Hey there~ bcs I finally have an aquarium that's big enough in my eyes i want to start aquascaping after it being my hobby for years and always watched TGM vids, i want to know after looking at ur website if u ship to denmark?? there's a lot of things that i need to start my project :)

[@Aeropars]

I'm interested by the perceived lack of flow which is apparent in this video. I've always been told to ensure that the filter has 10x tank volume turnover per hour which on my 180L tank produces gently waving plants. I don't get that in these tanks from the video but the grown quality is miles better than what I get. Would you be able to give an idea of how you set up flow in your aquariums?

[@feliped.6455]

Incredible! I've just met aquascaping and I'm fascinated. Is it possible to make money with this fantastic work? I mean, is there a market for this kind of job? Can you sell this works? Or is it "just" a hobbie?

[@henrikrynauw244]

Wow both tanks are amazing !

[@electronic-t473]

Please could you do an aquascaping video for an African cichlid aquarium, it's really hard as the cichlids constantly move the sand, this leads to extremely boring hard scapes that have no depth or interesting features,I have Mbuna African cichlids which loves rocks and caves so a good aquascape would be really good, please help!

[@no-oneshome3083]

Looks amazing, as all your videos. but how do you stop algae and kep the water and glass so clean? my tropical tank had no end of issues with algae and slime, but it didn't help that I had big pooper fish 😳

[@wrath6647]

This is awesome and I'd say similar videos would be very welcome! I'm setting up a 112G right now which is heavily inspired by Pebbles, one of my favorite planted tanks to date.

[@hhinojosareef1]

How do keep the plants from getting algae? Very nice!

[@Irivei]

Is this Cryptocoryne crispatula in the background?

[@zachmanning3996]

I wish they had more videos I love seeing the work that was put out by James findley

[@skipcharlie]

Is there a updated list of plants used in these aquascapes?

[@skipcharlie]

Also i noticed the driftwood has been removed from escarpment. Any clue as to what influenced that decision?

[@StanTheObserver-lo8rx]

I always dug this as your best tank. I especially liked the gravel high at the ends and lower in the middle.

[@TheTinkili]

They are still looking so good! How much litres does Altitude have? :)

[@mr_aleex1]

OMG O_o please upload more videos!
This channel are the best!

[@kittyoak3231]

I would LOVE to do this as a career!!! Your works are awe-inspiring!

[@pecesyacuariosvenezuela6566]

muy bonito el acuario mi hermano

[@Kratax]

Why the water doesn't get muddy?

[@premnath5385]

James, would be great to see you work on a dutch style aquascape.

[@yoda1651]

would you guys ever consider doing a salt water aquascape?

[@fonsecacorals8572]

Awesome video!!

[@dziegan]
