What are the things you shed when you set up an aquarium?
I asked in another video but how much time and money would be required to do accomplish this? I'm talking about maintenance cost, time and the learning I have to do.

Also the flying foxes are not adverse to scavenging on dead fish, the bones, mostly calcium, will dissolve in the acidic water, and be absorbed by the plants. Just like in nature.
That being said, you just need to keep in mind that the deeper the aquarium, the more wattage you're going to need for plants with high light requirements.
fabulous

Thanks
Magnifique!!!!
Falta emoção, amor, paixão e alegria na parada heeheheheh
Not exactly the same, but very similar!!
Awesome!!!
If you use the phrase 'pushing boundaries' etc too often James will have to do his next scape blindfolded in zero gravity! There are no end of 'boundary pushers' in the international comps for example. Just search ADA 2014 Aquascape competition.....
I say this with admiration for the niche you guys have plugged in the UK market. Maybe some more basic skills videos would be good. Some of these more immense scapes can leave the 60cm tank guys bemused.
Overall a great scape! Less back slapping, more tech info please.
It is true that the red hues play tricks on the eyes and the effect is unusual to say the least. But the sheer idea / audacity of creating a desert scape under water and the effort of seeing it through deserves real credit :)
As for recreating true nature, I think you should look into the biotope camp. It doesn't get more natural than that.
I am very much looking forward to seeing how this scape develops further and I'm confident in predicting that, with time, Arizona will show itself to be a slow-revealing masterpiece too.
luv ur work
I would love some more Plant profile/tutorial videos myself.
It might be, but why is he then not saying 'i did this' or 'i did that'. Would sound a lot more trustworthy and be a lot better for the viewer i think.
