The ULTIMATE HARDSCAPE Tutorial | How To Build Better Planted Tank Layouts

May I know the glass thickness of the aquariums that reach 100 gallons with hard scape ?

Why would you fill your aquarium with so many rocks 🤷 only half aquarium for fish ✌️🇨🇦

Many good tips! Especially in creating depth with large pieces in front and smaller or thinner ones at the back

Hi, dark seiryu stones harden water less than normal seiryu?

Witaj. Tylko ten PETRIFIED WOOD STONE nie wpływa na parametry wody? Kamienie kwarcowe chyba też nie powinny? Pozdrawiam

Sand and stones name please ..

Ow does one get rid of the tannins on the driftwood? Ive had tannins for 2 years no and it just won't go away. I've tried Boling it and still no luck

Very informative videos, there much more to learn sir😊

Hey! You guys must hear this all the time, but anyway: great videos! Amazing content! Keep doing it, it brings me so much joy. Thanks

The best aquascaping video for beginners

Ive been trying to get my hardscape to look good for a long time and this guy put together three beautiful scapes in 10 minutes 😭

Very nice. You have a gift.

do you primary use black seiryu rocks in your aquascape ir regular ones?

Thank you so much for your easy tips! I've been struggling a bit about what rocks I can use. Now I've got to find a video about the different kinds of drift wood and what can we use in our freshwater aquariums. TY👍

Very informative Tommy! Now I know what’s wrong with my scape. Thank you! ❤

It would be nice if aquarists used the geological names of the rocks rather than these marketing names. That would actually tell you something about the physical properties of the rock and how it might influence water chemistry. I know it can be figured out but it would save doing density, moh's hardness, and acid base reactions tests on the rock.

I have few question regarding drift wood in nature
I have few woods I bot from nature and cleaned it
some of them gets drown into water but releases yellow tint within 15 days and this is repeated for almost 4 months
some of the wood I bot from nature has very little tint but is floating even after it is in the tank for more than 2 weeks
I am going to setup my new aqua scaping tank (tank size 57" x 18" x 15") and i m having 2 options
1] to search more wood in nature -
pros
- zero cost for wood with more options
- develop connection with nature and a habit which will help me build experience the way most of the legends had done
cons
- not sure of the effect of wood on water conditions
- not sure if the cost saving for wood has adverse effect and instead i need to pay more on other solutions
- need lot of time and effort
2] To buy wood in aquarium shop
-- save lot of time and effort
cons
-- expensive
-- may have to choose from limited stock of woods and shop keeper may not allow that

I have same question with respect to stones

I can find lot of videos and material online for stones and woods internationally but not from India

❤️❤️

It took me roughly a few hours to place 3 large stones in my tank and he does it in 5 mins

I am from India, looking for Wild Rhino Stone.....Please let me know where i can get Wild Rhino Stones

Amazing video

Very good clip. I enjoyed this. Gives Me inspiraționale for fluture builds. You should do more vids Like this. Great Work ! 👏🏻✌🏻

Is there any dos and don'ts with certain stones when it comes to breaking them down into smaller pieces or different shapes?

I learned quite a lot from your teachings Tommy. You inspire me. Got some nice ideas to create a nice scape with my rocks that I was struggling with and with the various woods that I am using now. Busy with my first 1.2m x 50cm x50cm tank. So excited.

Dragon wood? That's just Malaysian driftwood. It comes in many shapes. Long, smooth branches, as seen in the Florestas Submersas layout, the rarer perforated-type seen here dubbed as 'Dragon Wood' & finally, dull-looking, chunky stumps for plecos to chew on.

Cimbora az utolsó akváriumot csináld meg élesben :) nekem is tetszik

Thanks, Tommy) and what can I do with kH+ and gH+ stones? In plant aquarium with osmosis water.

Спасибо!

Watching Sir Tommy do this without even single sweat is a true example of knowledge creates beauty comfortably. cheers to Green Aqua as always!

Hello. I bought elephant skin stone. Could you be able to tell how much rise in pH / GH this stone causes. ? Is it good for freshwater planted high tech tank ?

I would see to see Tommy try to make an iwagumi in a nano cube tank!!

great video, do you have a similar one for plants? different types how fast they grow etc... new to aquascaping and your channel is great

Awesome video, thank you for that. How do you solve issue that a lot of stones increase KH with combination of co2? I have seiryu stones and co2 because of plants and KH is every day one degree higher.

Wow the iron stone!! It's awesome

does anyone have tried crushed limestone? it's awsome

great job

I love this video a lot. Thanks for the detailed explanation and examples.

What should be the TDS of water of planted tanks like yours?

You said you would make a way with sand in the last scape on top of the soil. How do you do that? My sand way would disappear within days, falling down to the front or into the soil since sand is heavier than the soil.

Thank you soooo much 🙌🏻 and have a nice day 💁🏼‍♀️

Thank u

wow...bonus video. tommy always come back with amazing tips for us. perfects hardscape materials. i never use seriya rocks and iron woods , i want to try them this year...

Is Clithon Corona snails the same as Clithon Diadema?

Hmmm if only my parents would let me have more fish tanks🤣

Hello, what is the size of the tank?

Can you guys do an tutorial on how to make like mountains and such for the background of the tank?

Great mashup!

I've boiled my Red Moor in a pot for an hour, that removed most of the tannins, plus it made it accelerated the sinking process by a lot.
