I like the first one the best.
Tank number #10 is in my opinion the most beautiful. I really love the vast amount of plants in there.
The one at 26:00 is absolutely breathtaking!
Really beautiful tanks! It's so cool that we can see them all in one video. 1, 2, 5, 12 are my favourite.
5:52 wowzers in my trousers that’s a beautiful tank.
4, 7, 12 are my favorites. Amazing what these aquascapers can do!
The third it is for me. The contrast with light and shadow, man. Looks like a beautiful ancient forest

All impressive, 3 and 14 struck me as naturalistic, some were too contrived for my taste - off centre pathways and tank 6 in particular is not my style at all, stylised forest scenes underwater.
These nano scapes were definitely my highlight of Vivarium! The water of the scapes were crystal clear!
I love this 🙌🏼 So much inspiration in one video!
They’re all wonderful!
Just lovely, much better than TV📺
Beautiful nano scapes! The first was the best! Great hardscape!

Thanks MJ, enjoyed this with my morning coffee 🇦🇺❤️
Simply mesmerizing. This video compels me to setup a nano.
Wow! Amazing & such inspirational scapes. Fav's I'll say #08 & #12.
Agree with the comments. This channel made me love this new hobby of mine, and everything is so informative. Thank you sooo much!
Very nice tube of the lovely scapes.❤
So many great tanks but second place was my favourite by a long shot.
Great aquascape collection
Love this video. I will be watching it again soon. There is too much to see in one watch.
Thx for this.
Beautiful! My favourites are 13 and 15, I like the feeling of a ravine in both of them, but with different approaches. Very difficult to achieve in such a small space ;)
Salut, super vidéo qui appaise le corps après une longue journée de travail. Merci pour ton travail super format ^^
Tank #5: wow! Absolutely beautiful Tank #13: very nice. I would lower the water level a bit to create a terrarium with some vampire crabs and tetras.
REALLY like tank 7, nurse log vibe with the grass underneath is stunning

ALL OF THEM ARE SO BEARUTIFUL...I FOR ONE LOVE THEM ALL !!!! . I an working on one right now like this one but a 20 gallon.. Been doing this for over one year right now....
6 and 12 for sure. Best regards!
10 was my favorite and 14 was my second choice!
1 st scape is the best of all for me
#4, great work!
Love them all but for me tank #2 stands out.
Ik vond de eerste echt het mooiste. 😍
All stunning and interesting great video MJ if I had to pick one it would be 3rd place
Super high tech video
Amazing ! When i saw some tanks with so much plants in 3 month ! I suppose they use some personal plants too but i'm jealous (after, no living stock inside so they could put the co2 very hight). Congrats to all.
I gotta get my hands on one of those new Oase HOB filters! Beautiful work as always MJ!

Tank 12 is by favourite by far. Great perspective. But for my sense the left and right side is in competition.
Wow🎉
Beautiful tanks! I hope they got fish at some point!
Amazing creativity. Man playing God.
Tank #4 is by far my favorite. Do you have any more in depth videos on that one?
Top😍😍😍
Love 14, just needed light at the end of the little tunnel.
tank 4 and tank 12 are the best
Magnifique 👍. Mes preferes 1 3 5 6 12

This scape won the tournament
Oohhhh balen!! Heb de beurs gemist. In mijn hoofd was het elk jaar in november. Maar kan er naast zitten na die 2 jaar dat het niet door ging.. Maar wat zijn ze allemaal prachtig!
beautiful tanks, very inspiring. me personally, I miss the fish. for me the hobby is still about keeping healthy, beautiful fish in the first place. sometimes I get the feeling that aquascaping puts all the effort only in rocks, wood and plants.

prob too stressfull indeed, the tanks there were only there for about 2-3 days, when it was 5pm and everyone started leaving the first tanks were already being broken down, only the top 3 of the contest got to keep their sponsored aquascape

Fish provide movement and dynamism, in contrast to the stability and staticity provided by hardscape and plants. unfortunately fish will get stressed if included during the exhibition
Erg mooi om te zien. Goede inspiratie voor mijn eigen scape. Hoeveel liter aquasoil heb ik nodig voor een aquarium van 40x50x50? Beplanting is vooral mossoorten en naaldgras. Eventueel wat hogere planten op de achtergrond. Is 3 liter voldoende?
Saw them in real life at vivarium last saturday! I really liked tank 10. I really wanted an ID on the fern on the left side of the aquarium, on the right side of the "stump". It looks like a bolbitis but with round leaves.

In Tank No. 4, what is the name of the emers plants, Asparagus? Never saw before. Wow.
i've never really been a fan of nano tanks, you do the same maintenance as a larger tank but they are much more delicate and difficult to work on.
😍😍😍👍👍👍
I'd give anything for a tank like #12!
Are those beautiful tank without co2?
The one that won 1st place is my least favourite! First and 5th ones are very cool.
Is that twinstar b-line? I didn’t know it could grow advanced plants? They market it as a fish and shrimp light… I really wanted to buy the 45p kit from Strideway but was out off by the light.

Amazing tanks with healthy plants ! Does anybody has the name of the plants in the foreground in tank 11 ??! I Will order it

3rd place is brilliant like looking through a forest
All very impressive, but some too unnatural for me. Tank 3 and 14 for me joint winners - very subjective business to judge I accept. Tank 12 has a great sense of depth. Without fish I'm not sure I get the total glimpse of nature feel. But great content Mark, thanks for sharing and filming so expertly and adding sympathetic music.
16:27 was genius. He hid all of the equipment inside of the aquarium.

Hello 👋🏼 I have a quick question on your DIY co2 system. what's the biggest size aquarium you'd recommend for the 2 litre bottle measurements?
@MJAquascaping
Жыл бұрын
Depends a little bit on the setup and how much light is on the tank, but if we are talking about intense lighting I would say max 60cm medium light 90cm and low light 120cm

No fish or shrimp? Not even snails? Without animals they feel empty, unfinished.

Yeah I agree! Contest rules unfortunately
I gotta say without any fish, these tanks have a very similar vibe to an uncanny valley kind of feeling. The designs are stunning, but it just doesn't quite sit right with ur psyche. It's like they feel kind of dead or abandoned or something.
