Excellent simple aquascape. Also, I love how fish always flee in terror from a net, but then when you put the net in the water to release them, they're all, like, "No! I want to stay in this nice safe cozy net."

This is one my favorite SerpaDesign scapes! I wouldn't change a thing.

This is a perfect set-up for a Betta! She'll be happy in her home for many years. Thanks for the tutorial.

me when i ruined a tank: Nooooooooooo!!! My life is destroyed! Tanner when he ruined a tank: Yeeeeeeeees!!! Now i can build an amazing new tank! really beautiful build btw

I would put this in my home any day. The stocking choices are awesome.

As someone who works at a pet store that sells them in little cups to people who buy the cheapest things possible for their bettas this makes me happy. Every single animal in captivity deserves the best natural environment for them and every single pet I have I go full Serpa on it because this man knows how to raise animals. Good fucking job! Thank you for treating these animals with the care they deserve.

I loved watching this. And that betta is really cute..

One of the most beautiful scape I've ever seen. And also it looks so much more lively like a real habitat. Keep up the good work man. Love your videos

Totally love this scape!! That wood is amazing, and the whole thing is a beautiful cohesive environment! Wish I could do something like that. 🥰

Love the plant variety and aquascaping choice. The layout brings a new scene of theme and beauty in what looks like a real natural environment.

This is a very elegant design. Simple, but with depth and with a lot of room to mature. Love it.

It looks great! I feel that pygmy corydoras would go really well in this scape with the botanicals. also, what if you scaped a tank for serpae tetras and called it the "serpaesquad" :)

My dad, he was the treasurer for the Royal Aquarists Society in Leicester back in the 1970s. And now there is me. Currently have a small 10 gallon, though I am looking to upgrade to a Fluval Flex 123l. Your tanks are amazing, just wish I had the money for one. :)

You make it look so easy! I’ve tried 4 aquariums, 2 vivariums, and a paludarium, and I got nowhere NEAR how good yours looks!

amazing, I just picked up some driftwood and was stuck on what to do with some pieces, thanks for the inspiration. Also I am so glad there are other people out there that understand beta don't need to live in jars

Simple and sleek, the stump really binds the tank really well in my opinion. I'm a huge advocate for 'less is more'. Great job Tantor.

Been waiting on this all day

I think your work is really great for all aquariums. Greetings from Poland.

That's beautiful. I love how natural it looks. Love the botanicals, the betta, and the shrimp.

This is what I call a truly useful video. Thank you so much!

I love the scape, looks great. How ever you've set up the filter incorrectly, theres no flow to where the media (lavarock) is. The segments between the segments should be staggered, so on the second section of corrigated plastic the plastic partition should start at the bottom not the top. The way its set just now, the water in the lavarock chamber will remain stagnant. Anyways Love the videos, Your scapes always look great, I would really enjoy seeing and getting to know the planning process of how you concieve the scapes. Watching you build them is amazing, but how can I go about building something so great. Just watchjing you build and maintain scapes is good, but after the 200th video....

I'm so happy that you realized how special the female betta is and decided to keep her alone. So many people do betta sororities, which is just a disaster. People never give individual females the chance to show that they are just as personable as the males.
