Cheers Michael. :) Thanks for the support!
Oh my gosh, not Merkin😂😂😂😂 this was a once-in-a-lifetime chance to use that word and you did it 😂😂😂😂 only in "The Beautiful World of Aquascaping"
Lov the look of this scape too Balazs. The wood gives it such an ancient forest look. :)
Cheers! :)
One minute I am laughing then I am learning. You are the best!!! Thank You so much.
Sounds good. :)
Thank, William.
That's a beautiful layout Balazs, and some great design tips. Don't let Tommy touch anything!
LOL, I won't :)
Once again a beautiful layout full of details and details.
Every Thursday, the best aquascaping channel in the world is always surprising.
Congratulations Balazs, congratulations Green Aqua.
Too bad Budapest is so far away from Portugal 🇵🇹 .
See you next week. 😉😉😍😍
Looking forward to have you over some day. As promised. :)
I could just spend the whole day at Green Aqua, just to look and get inspiration from all the scapes 👍🏻👍🏻
That's what many people from all over the globe do when they finally get here. We had people from Chile, Japan, the US, Australia, etc.
@@GreenAquaShop well you got one from Malaysia, hopefully, after this lockdown. ❤️
Hope asap. :)
Finding your channel was the best thing that happened to me in a long time, this year each video has been great, they are all great, because each one has their own style and I love that ... greetings
That is very cool, thanks so much for the kind feedback, glad you like our productions. Stay tuned for more. Cheers!
A like for the pug 😃
And the scape...👍🏼
The pug is cool right, has his own insta page. :)
I really like this channel. This guy has too much fun playing with sticks and dirt and leaves.
Thanks to your kind. :)
welcome to the world of beautiful aquascape
#GreenAqua 👍❤️
Thanks for the support!
OMG THE INTRO! GO WITH THE FLOW 😂😂😂
LOL
at the beginning of the video I couldn't see a vision of this aquarium and when you started making a cave and covering everything with soil it all made sense, one of my favorite hardscaps I've seen on this channel. Well done :)
Oh, cool. Cheers!
Hi balazs. Everytime i learn so much if i look at your video's here .thanks for that ,and great work so far.it will be Nice when its planted. Great hard scape already 👍🤛😉
Thanks so much Theo! Cheers!
the joke in the beginning genuinely made my day so much better
Cool! Mission accomplished. :)
You guys should be in the millions of subscribers, I'm telling everyone I know!
Thanks for the support Jerry, you guys push this channel further!
Thank you for sharing the Beautiful World of Aquascaping! I love this style of video. - Little Bobby
Cheers Little Bobby, did not see your comments from some time...
@@GreenAquaShop I'm still here, always! Thank you
Cheers! :)
You guys are the reason I sold my reff tank and have 2 high tech 9op and60u aquascape tanks keep up the good work george poulo
Cool! Good luck with your planted tanks!
Best aquascape video/tutorial/walk through i have seen anywhere to date and it had to be by Green aqua. Inspiration at its finest can't wait for part 2
Cheers! Hope you'll like the new vid too!
Another great aquascaping 🌱🌿🌱
Cheers!
It’s 2:47am in NYC and I enjoyed this episode lol
Wow what a rough way to start a morning.... 😁 Thanks for watching mate 👍
Thank you for all the videos you make. I learned a lot from the guests you had. all the best !
Thank you, we will have more workshops in the future when COVID restrictions will be over and we can live our life in a normal way again
Awesome hardscape,can’t wait for this to be planted
Stay tuned! Cheers!
Imádom a videóitokat! Nagyon sokat lehet tanulni belőlük! 😁😁
Köszi Dániel!
I just love this man. His way of explaining and expressing is great. Love from india ❤️
Thank you 👍
What a great layout! I always love caves in a tank, they create mystery and interest. If you are a perfectionist like me and want to get rid of the calcium stain at the water line, clean the water line with a cloth soaked in white vinegar at every water change. Be careful not to get it in the aquarium water, wipe it dry before refilling. You will never have a water mark (calcium stain) again 😊
Thanks for the suggestion 😃 We're using RO water in all of our tanks. So calcium is less of an issue, but fertilizers still can cause some residue on the glass if we neglect it.
@@GreenAquaShop oh yes, of course, I forgot about the RO water you guys use. I just noticed the water line in this video. The vinegar will take care of it, if you want to remove it 😁
Thanks for the video.Great hard scape & see the planting next week.......waiting 👍👍👍👏
Cheers, stay tuned my friend.
The cave idea is awesome.
Thanks Wilfred. Glad you like the idea.
You always make me laugh! Love Green Aqua 💚❤️💚
Cheers!
This tank is going to be amazingly different. I love this hobby so much
Cheers!
Just wow! Another inspiring scape
Cheers!
Balazs just gets me craking a smile... this days this is getting harder to stay positive... not even my tanks make me feel happy...
Covid and lockdowns are just day to day depression shots... Thanks for the moral boost!!!
Besides this sociological insight, another good info video!!! Stay SAFE out there!!!
Will do, hang tight, liberation army is coming. Cheers!
Beautiful reminder never to rush the hardscape process! Just as/ if not MORE important than the planting. I love the theory behind composition. Thank you!
You're welcome, glad you like the idea.
I love how you always employ the tips and tricks you have experienced from the celebrities/experts during Green Aqua workshops. So far, the hardscape is looking damn good! Well done Balazs!
Thanks Shawn, hope you'll like the end result too... :)
finally, another video where Balazs play with gravity rules
LOL, yeah.
Looks awesome! Can’t wait to see the planting in the next video.
Thanks Ralph.
Stay tuned. ;)
The hardscape is awesome!
Glad you like it, cheers!
This hardscarpe is the most beautiful that I ever seen!
Glad you like it Alessia, hope you'll like the end result too.
Absolutely spectacular! 👍🏻
Thank you so much.
Wow! It's looking splendid so far Balazs! Looking forward to the planting session, and some fish in it?.....Calum, Stirling, Scotland
Yeah! Absolutely. Cheers Calum.
The tank is looking very promising indeed 👍
Hope you'll like the end result.
Craftmanship! 🤩
Hey Marcus, thanks!
Very nice composition 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼😊😊😊
Thanks!
After I’m done with college, I’m going to visit Green Aqua. Thank you for inspiring me
Will be awesome to welcoming you 😉
As always.. one of the awesome scape.. and am back with all stubbornness.. waiting for the plant series..😁 🍀☘️🌿💚
LOL. Come on man, it's not gonna happen sooner, if you ask it always. :) I'm a stubborn person. LOL.
@@GreenAquaShop I learn from ma man Balazs.. so I do learn being stubborn from you.. but am just gonna keep asking until it happens.. maybe it won't happen sooner but Greenaqua will remember their stubborn fan.. I am from India and wish to be there in the gallery to see and meet all you guys😭
Well, well, well, I heard they plan to make "Basic Instinct 3". Balazs, You have a chance to play one of the main roles😉. Thank u for this great episode, especially now, when I plan to rescape one of my tanks. Greetings👍
LOL, I would probably be selected out in the gender pre-selection though.
Very satisfying when Balazs put the biggest wood piece in just right--my eye said, "There! Leave it there!" And he did. Also love how you created caves with the black material. Always learning good techniques here.
Cheers Kris!
As always, a beautiful video, also useful. Every time I look at your videos and yes ... here ... it came down - "I can and can do everything!" you go to embody ... but something goes wrong .... I hope that thanks to your videos, someday I will still learn.
Thanks for the support!
Looks fantastic looking forward to the planting next week seems like you have great fun doing the videos 😁👍
We absolutely do, thanks for watching Paul.
Wow, very nice composition! I really enjoyed the natural way of filming and explaining what you do and why, while you're scaping!
Thanks, glad you like this build!
Beautiful mate. Cant wait for planting.
Thanks James! Cheers!
Loving the pattern of the wood excited to see the final results
Cheers!
I can’t wait for the next week to see the planting video
We will be here for sure 😀
Lovely ☺️. This format is fun and deconstructs well the steps. We have to enjoy the process and no rush. Good job as always.
Thanks - as always!
amazing skill, one learns so much with these videos.. A pleasure to watch..
That's good to hear. Cheers!
Nice video tutorial guys. Really insightful, great tips and knowledge base. I love the hoodie!
Glad you like the work - and the hoodie. :)
Can't wait to see this tank planted and filled, I've never seen a build quite like this one. Great video guys!
Cheers Cody! Glad you like this style.
Jeszcze bez roslin a juz pieknie to wyglada ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hope you'll like the end result too!
You guys are great as always. That's an amazing scape and incredible looking pieces of wood.
The tape and the thought process of how you constructed the golden ratio was very helpful.
Glad you found this useful David. Cheers!
Awesome as always! Thanks for sharing!
You're welcome, cheers!
Really cool !!
Plants always soften the look after planting
But this hardscape has something dark and mysterious that i really appreciate.
I hope some of that is still there after planting 🤘
Exactly, that was my idea. Hope you will say after the next one that it's preserved...
@@GreenAquaShop really cool that thats the plan
You can do this :)
Looking forward to the next video !
Cheers!
Really looks great, can't wait to see the final product!
Stay tuned! Cheers!
I wait for next video about this new hardscape...good job guys!
Thanks Carlo!
OMG this hardscape is from my dreams!!!
Glad you like it! See it planted tomorrow! :) Cheers.
Hi guys... just fantastic! Great!
Thanks!
Looks great already!
Glad you like it! Cheers.
Amazing can't wait to next part
Thanks!
its relly excited to me in this tank to plant monte carlo in the back ground, looking forward to your next video
Cheers.
Hello from New Zealand! I love your content very enjoyable and fulfilling with knowledge. Thanks Green Aqua
Thanks so much for your words. Love to hear you're watching us from such a distance 💚
I just re-scaped my tank and I am very much in love with it! So much Depth and layers 😍😂 took me 8 hours.. Done an all nighter 😬🤣 calling in sick for work today lol
The landscape in New Zealand is very inspirational for Aqua Scaping. and the materials here are one of a kind. native plants, moss, drift wood. to the volcanic rocks and blue Mountain rocks and finely defined spring river rocks. All in our backyard.. It truly is a marvellous place to live
😁✌️
Very rich in minerals and petrified fossils.
Can these materials be harmful to the fish?
Incredible design on the hard scape Balazs! Love the setup! Great job! Thanks for the video!
Thanks for the kind comment, as always. Cheers Mike!
incredible scape
Thanks a lot. :)
Fantastico!! Me encanta. Un abrazete
Cheers!
Another amazing episode! Thank you for encouraging me to make my first C02 set up a few months back!
Gogogo!
Absolutely love this style of video. Between this style and the style that Tommy does showing how he uses Photoshop, you guys are at the top of the UA-cam game for sure! Keep coming up with great videos and we will keep the support coming! Great looking tank btw!
Will do Spencer, thanks for the kind comment.
Thisone looks so awesome !!
Thanks!
You make look so easy to scape a great layout!! Congrats guys!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thanks André.
Wooahh !!! You have a green bush Balazs 😂😂😂
Now you know the secret 😂
Can't wait for the planting episode 😬
See you next week 😀
The Best Chanel 👏👏👏
Thanks for the support!
Love the geotextile! Such a good idea to retain the soil! Might have to try that one out on my next scape! Excited for the planting session!
Yeah, that works well. Cheers!
Great video. Just loved it
Thanks so much 🙏
What an astounding way of describing the process of designing the layout of aquascaping. It is a very informative about using 2 golden ratios in a single layout. Loved the stone work with the wood.🔥
there is nothing like excessive exaggeration - I can see at least 17 golden ratios ^^
Yes!!!
Golden Ratio everywhere. LOL
Balazs...., You are the Best out of the Best. Thank You for shearing important pointers
Cheers! Thanks!
@@GreenAquaShop Welcome Sir
I was in the process of planning the layout for my upcoming 120p tank. This amazing video has shown me that I should be focusing on finding big and high impact hardscape pieces instead and just "go with the flow" :) Thanks for this great video, can't wait for the planting !
Same here preparing some scotch
LOL.
Loved this layout and always the way you break it down and show us an easy step by step visual way to create some of the most incredible aquascapes!
I know Tommy is loving this 😂😂😂😂
Cheers to your wonderful and beautiful director 👋 You have the best point about having so many things to discover when you look into your aquariums!! This design is one of the coolest layouts...Wow!! You guys at Green Aqua know how to open up the door of possibilities!!Just when I think I'm thinking outside of the box there's another box 😂
Thanks for figuring out a way to bring back the "basic instinct" I might have even laughed harder seeing it again😂😂 you about my green tea come out my nose 😂
The best way to start my day is waking up the Green Aqua way!!! Much love you guys and have a very blessed day!!!🙏❤️👋🌿🐟🌿👍
Thanks Mary. LOL, try to teach and entertain at the same time. :)
I love the heavy use of hardscape, can’t wait to see what’s planned for the rest of the layout 🌿
Yeah again this is something completely different thing what we usually do to help you all think outside of the box. Thanks for watching Pete and see you next week on the planting 😀 👍
sensacional trabajo cada dia me asombrais mas,espero ansioso el plantado
Stay tuned. Cheers!
This looks sick!!!!
Cheers, glad you like it!
Balaz is on his way to the "Revenge of the fallen part 2"... Awesome stunning layout bro... cheers!!!
