Live workshop at Aquarium Gardens - kzread.infoUk3BoJzmucI?feature=share OASE CrystalSkim video - kzread.info/dash/bejne/eWtppJVpiq3KYbw.html

Super relaxing to watch someone else do maintenance on a beautiful tank!

I am over 30 years away from the hobby and you have certainly inspired me to get back into it. My mother had an aquatic shop back in the early 80's which I practically ran for 4 or 5 years and had the pick of everything, I was aquascaping to a degree back then without realising it. I should be back up and running in the next couple of months.

Look at father fish...on yt

I watched it until the end ! I like your honesty about scratching the glass with your algae scraper, not many people would admit to that. 👍

Watched to the end as always. Actually I binge watched George Farmer vids all day. Thanks as always for all the info.

Best video for ages, reassuring me that I am doing everything correctly

I actually prefer your long videos like this one. I made it all the way at the end 😊

Of course, we all watch till the end! Lovey stuff.

Made it to the end on this one. Really felt inspired by how beautiful the tank looks with such relatively easy plants. Just a good reminder you can make something simple beautiful.

Watch your videos on my break at work. Always enjoyed them ❤

Watched to the end and even did a couple rewinds to look at that anubias minicoin! Great video once again!

I kept having a heat attack thinking on of your fish were going to get sucked up in the tube while you were cleaning. great tank

I love doing the maintenance. It is when I really connect to my tanks and it is something I look forward to each week. The only thing I don't really like is trimming moss as find it so difficult to stop little bits landing in random places and starting to grow everywhere.

Great content, thank you! Loved the photos of the fish at the end!

Where was the keep on scraping at the end…. Love this scape, it’s inspired me to rescape my 300… Thankyou. And I really enjoyed the workshop yesterday….

How can you not watch it to the end😍 hats off to you george. Great video and a beautiful tank.

Only just seen this vid for some reason George? But really love this aquascape and how it's evolved. My own is very similar from the aspect that I really like the combination of cryps and Amazon swords in the background. Very jealous of how clean and algae free your anubias is! Never managed that one as yet.

Beautiful scape George I could sit hours there watching the beautiful fish darting around and the plants swaying in the flow

Watched all the way. Got some great tips from this will for sure be using those. Thanks! Keep on scaping!

I definitely made it to the end! Today is my tank maintainance day, great way to start it!!!

Hi George, great video, thanks for your tips and recommendations. Watched until the end and enjoyed all the content!

watched till the end ! one of your best ones mate cheers

Made it all the way to the end. Thanks for showing us your stunning aquarium and how easy it is to maintain it. We have kept fish on and off for about 40 years or more tropical, marine and more recently coldwater. My son had a few goldfish as a youngster (he's 38 soon) and the last of the shoal died the back end of last year. Broke my heart over that fish. Anyhow we have just dismantled his tank and are looking at setting up another tropical or maybe temperate. How things have changed in the hobby, what with skimmers and CO2 etc. Feeling a little overwhelmed but at least we now have loads of help from your good self. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

Watched to the end😉 Would like to see more bucephalndra in there, my favourite small plant!

This tank is looking absolutely bloody beautiful!

Thanks mate 😃

Watched to the end. Lovely tank

Great video, love the scape and those Amazon swords are magnificent

Hi, if you want to use a save alge magnet , i recommend the tunze care magnet!!! i use him for my malawi tank, wich had a lot of sand. And i will never use other ;) you can buye it with care booster and blade. Or just use it without blade.

Can’t but help watch your videos till the end,super insightful George! Thank you

No problem watching until the end since I was looking forward to the images of the fish. Lovely aquarium!

Wow! So beautiful! Very inspiring!

Thank you George for sharing with us your passion! My favorite scape became even more mature and stunning.

I am really glad You are bringing back your awesome photography. Really beautiful stills you captures as well. Always a treat.

Thank you for all of your inspiration!

I always watch to the end, love your calm presentation style! Love all the anubias you have there and those lampeyes are great!

Made it till the end! Beautiful content. Thank you for posting!

Fantastic good informative video! Watched it all the way to the end.

Fun fact George, there were studies done on chlorine and nitirifying bacteria, takes around an hour of exposure for it to have actualy harm and kill off bacteria! I still prefer to use my aquarium water when washing substrate as its less of a waste. I remember prime time aquatics on youtube did a video about it

Great video George, and extremely timely as I’ve just got back into the hobby after many years away.

Awesome video as always! Always pick up a tip or two watching your maintenance videos! I have always said, the connection is my thought on maintenance. Out of all the aquariums I have had, when I started my First aquascape, I never had a connection like I have with my aquascape. The process in doing the maintenance also is very therapeutic for me and I really enjoy doing it and the results are satisfying even though the scape to me is always changing. Thank you George for all that you do for this beautiful and amazing hobby!

I love this version of the tank best!

Enhorabuena,me encanta este tipo de videos y me encanta ese montaje, cuando lo vi la primera vez dije wuuuuaaaaa es perfecto.

Got back into the hobby last year after a 20 year hiatus. Not wanting to run before I could walk, I set up a 360 litre community tank with a biomaster 600 to filter it based on your reviews. I don't like clutter in my tanks and the internal heater with prefilter set the Oase apart. It's been running for nearly 6 months now and my maintenance schedule is almost identical to yours, except I clean my prefilter every 2-3 weeks and water change every 10 days (33%). So far my water readings have been bang on, so the filter is able to cope with the bioload. I have lighter stock than you, 40 fish, 2 angels, 1 bristlenose, 27 small tetras and 10 corys but went the silk plant route as my interest is more in the fish than underwater gardening. With your heavily planted tank I would have thought 2 800 filters would have been overkill but you are the expert. Nice aquascape and you are definitely pushing me in the natural plant direction...

That scape may very well be my favorite I’ve ever seen (and that’s saying a lot given how many wonderful scapes are out there by you and others) Truly stunning!

Your aquarium looks nice. You can see that the work you put in is paying off. I really like the colors in the swords. Thank you for sharing.

You have taught me how to enjoy maintaining my aquarium I’ve learnt so much from your content and of course watched to the end ❤

Beautiful video - loved the close ups of each fish at the end! So relaxing to see those gorgeous fish, plants, and scape, and especially seeing someone else doing tank maintenance! 😂 Great tips on plant grooming - now I know why my swords always looked so raggy. In future, I will pluck those icky leaves. Thank you!

You are always inspiring, and helpful, I have been scaping for 30 years but you always manage to get me to shift gears. George love your passion and keep on scaping, please 👍

This aquarium is stunning! Classic style...simple and perfect equilibrium between healthy plants and hardscape elements. Regards

Watched all the way to the end haha. Thanks for sharing the maintenance details, they're really more useful to see in a practical sense as opposed to vague written guidelines.

Well, thank you for that video. I do like all the plants... the colour of the Echinodorus are amazing beautifull. The fish: the blue eyes, the Poropanchax, I had some but they jumped. It's better to have a top on your aquarium to keep them.

Got into this hobby about a year ago. Love your stuff and I'm buying your book!!! Keep up the great work your an inspiration to so many of us.

Great timing for the Video George. It's maintenace sunday but I wans't that motivated to do it today, after watching you do it I really am now. Thank you!

Great looking tank and awesome video. Thanks for all the information.

A nice relaxing and educational video, awesome looking aquascaped tank too great job

Hey hey mate blessings to you and your family thanks for all the info 🙌🏾🙏🏾💜

I like your video, I just subscribed. I have a 95 gallon Aquantantis fresh water setup. I also use a temperature controller for both my heaters to prevent overheating or mechanical failure.

Hi George, thanks for sharing these useful tips! Could you tell me how you siphon into your garden from a very long hose?

Your Oase Biomaster filters work well with the supplied media because you have two of them. You could actually get away with just one on that tank but you would need to upgrade the bio-media.

Great video, tank looks fantastic ❤

Hi George, hope you are well. I got the ❤on my Twinstar comment a couple of weeks ago. I opted for the Twinstar EA600 for my Oase styleline 125 (completely at my on risk) . I’m saving for hardscape and plants atm but when I get the tank wet I’ll let you know how I get on. Thanks , Mark

Another winner!

Brilliant video!

Back into fish keeping this week after hand surgery. I do like your natural approach and enthusiasm for the plants. Anubias nana petite is my favourite. I just need patience with rogue snails!

Really appreciate the back 2 back videos George and I am saving yesterday's Aquarium Gardens live stream for the wknd , just like to start with a few additional points for algae magnets and I am not positive about both of them but it is worth mentioning that I noticed my Mag-Float had a sharp piece of metal on the interior scrubber that is visible with a magnifying glass. Never thought about doing anything to determine if the manufacturer quality or the choice of materials is the reason for the problem which I will add that the scratches on my glass are noticeable if you are close enough but not so deep the algae makes it easier to find like I have seen on some other aquariums !!! Kind of a irony of the painful variety and I think it is deserving for me to put in a little time to see if there is anything similar that someone else has written about. Now I have a brand new 75 g ( 280 liters ) that I am not willing to use anything but Magic erasers and the paper towels thanks to Juris for the Pro Tip . Last thing is ever since the first time I saw you using a DENNERLE CLEANATOR I have been looking forward to getting a few for the last few years and now having a new aquarium is a great time to get some, especially dealing with the diatom situation!!! Had 2 add I always watch until the end regardless of the length and same for the many times. I will watch it again!!!

There’s no words to describe how much I love this tank

Love is a great choice and I think it is a masterpiece for its size and the plant selection ♡

Beautiful aquarium ❤

Thanks for share all your knowledge

amazing aquarium.

Timely! My first canister filter is in transit now. Oase bio therm 600. It’ll compliment another first for me a rimless tank. I’ve had a ton of hang-on filters but this will be my ‘show tank’ Yes indeed, I watched the entire episode 🎉

very good video, thanks

Your hatchet fishes are beautiful - overall gorgeous tank George

Nice video mate!

Fantastic videos! ❤

Thank you!

Amazing tank 👍🐟🐠👋

great video! Your videos have been an inspiration from the beginning of my aquascaping journey and your advice is always helpful. Every little trick seems to make maintaining and improving my setup much more enjoyable. Keep up the good work! I'm interested in what you use to inject CO2, I have an inline JBL connected to my filter's outflow pipe, would you rate these as an efficient option? I do wonder how much gets infused before it goes into the tank.

To the end :-) Thank you for your content!

Always till the end George, nice video :)

Nice tanks. I love bolbitis❤

Wonderfull Aqaurium ❤

Hi I am relatively new to fish keeping and I was wondering where the water is coming from to refill your tank. I would imagine it is not coming straight from the tap???? Beautiful aquarium, Algae green with envy.😉 😉😉

Love the set up❤😅

I really like the red swords in the back. What variety are they?

That broke my train journey up, I'm on setting up an ADA 60f with Chihiros wrgb2, ADA es600 and looking at co2 but not sure how to dose. I'm undecided whether to do a walkthrough talk through for other beginners, but I'll think bout it. I'm currently welding the stand together with the inbuilt log store.

Good luck, sounds like a great project 👍

Beautiful tank George!!! I enjoy the maintenance but things got way out of balance somehow and am struggling to remediate my tank. Any tips on turning things around when more is required than just trimming off and scraping away algae covered plants and hardscape? (BBA, hair algae and cyanobacteria 😬.)

Great video! Could you please give me the name of the red background plants? Thanks a lot!

I remember this tank from when you got it! It’s looking it’s best now mate! It seems to be running on autopilot! If I ever get a big enough tank I want those blueberry tetras, although I’ve never seen them in Chicago! #madeittotheend

Are you refilling from the hot and cold taps? Is there a copper issue using water straight from the hot tap?

What are those fish that are swimming back/forth? They look stunning

Hey George, what is this for a big amazon sword in the middle of the aquarium? Tanks you 😊

When filling up, how do you ensure the water is dechlorinated?

How is the water getting sucked up? Do you have a pump?

How do u get Amazon swords to get that red please tell me I Have a decent light. Wat else Co2 Or wat looks Epic I want that look also in my tank George

maybe the sound of the magnetic scraper is just sand crystals scratching your grass George jejejejejejee

Hi George, amazing video, very useful, what kid of black film do you use for the back side of your acquarium?

Great video - thank you George. Just a question concerning the rear Twinstar 900S - How did you mounted this light bar, as I can't see any left or right connection?

It’s just sandwiched between the rim and the glass brace. Fits snugly and securely with no issues. Lucky!

I wonder how the Saulosi tank is doing George 😁

Thanks for the share. The small snail. I don't like it at all. But I have it. And if I fees the fish correctly the snails grow... Any top tip to control these pandemic? kindly Regards

Question! What are the risks of scratching an acrylic tank using a razor scraper?
