My gosh!!!! I didn’t know aquascaping had so much science behind it too. Awesome

[RyoWatanabee]

My thing with planted aquascapes. I'm a nature style person by the way. Don't over think hardscape. The more you tinker around, add or glue stuff, over think the golden ratio, then your aquascape becomes more unnatural looking.
Just do what makes you happy :)

[aleksanderkowalewski]

Aquaristics is an encounter between a free man and a free nature. I personally divide the styles of aquariums into two. Compositions that create nature with the help of art. The second is when we create art with the help of nature

It's amazing, wish everyone who sees this comment good health and happiness

Hey green aqua I have been watching your videos for a couple of years and want to say thanks for putting up such high quality videos. They have helped me a ton with setting up my first aqua scape which is almost complete just need to buy some more plants and some fish. I was wondering what are some of your favorite epiphyte plants thanks!

[mofish]

I have watched so many videos on how to compose an aquascape and this has so many unique subjects. Thank you for taking us inside your brain!

[ZeldaChan]

Wow! 30min of pure GOLD! Thank you so much Balazs! Your wisdom is like nectar for the thirsty!

[theletterswalk]

Wow great guide 1. I agree! The rock would be a bad idea with the contrasting styles being joined. 2 absolute fountain of knowledge can’t wait to mess with my tank and find my composition. 3. I’m going to try and find a course. (Hopefully one ran by you)I would love to learn more as I’m starting what feels like the beginning of a very Long journey! Great content though! You mentioned it briefly a tank with 360 viewing and how that composition is different. I ask because I have a 110 gallon tub fitted on a large table so the view is like a 45 degree angle from almost all sides! It seems like I dove straight into the deep end on difficulty! Like you said some people are just more natural and I realized I ain’t one of em.

Very instructive video! I learned that, while I might have started with island composition tanks, they are my least favorite of the composition styles. I'm excited to get back into the aquarium hobby with all this information!

Спасибо ребята! Ваши видео вдохновляют и успокаивают в эти непростые времена

[wilsonyip]

Thank you Balaz, awesome video. I love your effort in explaining with real examples. Great tutorial.

[GrowingInterest]

I found so much here, who was familiar, things I learned from design university. Very good explanaiton! <3

[Cherrysams]

Please make a video about plants Positioning and placing.., with deep details and perspective

[davidhunternyc]

I absolutely love this video, Balazs! The aquascapes are stunningly beautiful! ...almost as beautiful as you! Question: Will an Iwagumi aquascape ever, ever, win a IAPLC again? Unfortunately, I don't think so. Everyone wants fireworks. No one wants zen.

[seanmasterson]

Great video! Excellent insights. I work a lot with cinematographers and I love the idea about how any emotional response to an image is greatly influenced by the negative space, perhaps even more so than the positive. Even more so in aquascapes, I think...

[PetrPospechApofis]

Thank you for inspiration for my next tank :-) These are amazing compositions.

[RWAquariumPages]

great video and i love this channel, watching and rewatching all the episodes. love the explanation and it's inspired me to start up a new aquascape! thanks for this!

[SifiFan]

Wanted to build a aquascape cave using black natural slate. After working with the slate for a couple days outside the tank, discovered my idea will not work. Lost my vision. I wanted height with shadows. The many examples you shared are sure to get me back on track...

[markusengel]

Moin, Thank's for this tutorial! I feel sorry for Dave Chow, but I like the two sides disconected without the stone.
