the tanks look great, but i will never understand this trend towards making scapes look like science experiments by showcasing all that equipment. i had to laugh when he said the tank was designed to be viewed from all angles, and three sides where covered with equipment. i actually did laugh when he said he liked how that ADA bubbler looked great. there is nothing peaceful about looking at ADA logos everywhere and tubes (no matter how glassy and expensive they are) in your tank. i really think it's part of this hipster culture where you want to show off all your expensive "unique" gear. don't get me wrong, your layouts look great - and i'm sure loads of people don't agree with me - but how can you have tanks that are designed to show off what you can do when it's all equipment. part of the challenge is hiding the equipment to hide the fact that you aren't really looking at a slice of nature. i get that you have to make compromises to do that, but that's part of being a professional aquascaper. i think it's a shame that so many people who are new planted tanks only see this part of the hobby - because these seem to be the only people who like making videos.

Agreed. Thats also why in the Netherlands when you enter in a competition, not only does all your gear have to be in the tank and running, you have take steps to hide it as best you can. In fact, placement in the room etc even plays a part in the rating.

Was thinking the same thing. The tank looks nice. But the equipment looks horrible. Why do people on KZitem says things so loosely and expect you to believe. "Designed for 360 viewing " that's a joke. But he tanks look good minus equipment.

Adding a few stones and plants is NOT aquascaping and every tank in this video appears instant to me. There is obvisually no deeper thought behind it.

Not much livestock, but that's not the shops purpose. They order from Seagrest farms if you need fish though. Plus they got a garage filled with hardscape next to the showroom. You'll find something you like...trust me.

I would love to support this business, especially given how most of the aquarium in NYC is kind of 80s... I like their way of going, we definitely need more professional store that carry these aquarium without those ugly black plastic edges, but the plant on sell is too few in number. They need to carry more moss, bucep, some algae eater as well. BTW, anyone used those algae killer thing in some of their show tank? I used one, the original one before it was cool. It "shocks" my shrimps when they are on the disc and acted like a stopper on breeding until I removed it. Does anyone have the same problem?
