    i swear, I am your biggest fan for two reasons. The first is that your humility is not natural, and the second is that you share 10 years of experience for free, in my personal belief, you are undisputedly number 1.
  • @jackasscou
    What did I just watch ? Super cool camera shots, clear explanations, complete informations, beautiful tanks, great voice and nice choice of the backing track, edit on point showing all we need to see... Probably the most perfect video for aquascaping beginners. Congrats on this, you can be proud of your work ! 💚
  • Thanks Mark! Ook voor niet beginners weer een duidelijke guide om even op terug te vallen! 😊
  • Great video for all beginners Mark! I wish you and all folks here a very happy, healthy and successful new year full with awesome aquascapes! 🎉
  • @thenudes
    I am new to aquascaping and your videos have given me more clarity, insight, and confidence in next steps, than all the research I did online this past week
  • @treysimmons2179
    Great video Mark. You make content that is fun to watch. I've been aquascaping for years and still enjoyed the video!
  • @kima.8356
    This is best aquarium video I’ve seen! Amazing for literally everyone who is interested in setting up an aquarium.
  • @SunshineSimka
    Amazing video! Just in 20mins you explain so so so much about aquascaping for people like me who wants to get a tank but have no clue what I need and where to start with and even what kind of fish I need to balance the ecosystem! And all of this is for free! I cannot believe it. Thank you very much❤ priceless!
  • The best beginner friendly setup guide from start to finish that I have ever had the pleasure of watching. I was 50/50 about getting back into the hobby in my new home. Had a lot of issues with my old tank due to not having a clue 😊 With this video I now have the confidence to get a 60p and agains thank to YouTubers like you it’s a great fountain of knowledge on tap. ❤ Thank you very much Mark I really appreciate it 😊
  • @kellyhaller1229
    You have inspired me to try a planted tank again. I had one years ago but didn't know what I was doing. I just bought a new tank and am ready to get started. This video was perfect timing for me. Thank you!
  • @MandyJane123700
    Great advice! It took me the longest time to get my lights on a schedule, and I had lots of bba. Once I finally started turning them off after the proper amount of time the bba went away.
  • @k26295
    The floating plants are such great help. Based on your tips, put in some red root floaters and frog bits. Worked charm and didn't face algae. Also I started with a "leached" soil and added ferts incrementally.
  • @barryholland4082
    Probably your best, most straightforward video to date, Mark. Thank you!
  • @snarkysnoo
    You are a landscaping genius! I'm amazed by your work!
  • @cherylmartin9994
    Great video Mark! I've been keeping fish since 2008 but this year I really want to focus on the scaping aspect. Thank you for always being a excellent source of information and inspiration.
  • @DemiDelusion
    First time on this channel, subbing immediately! Great video, about to start my 3rd scape! 😄 Last one went horrible so wish me luck!🤞🏻Groetjessss!
  • @priyankardas2668
    Good to see all the basics being covered in the video. If someone is willing to start proper aquascaping, they should watch it. I have tried low quality stuff, less plants, bad soil and have suffered and learnt the hard way...better to start with good equipment and sound advice...
  • @ShrimpMania
    Tones of useful tips and high level production quality. Good job 👏
  • @deanos1966
    Thanks for this. Learned a lot and gained inspiration to take the leap in Aquascaping.
