Building a RIVERBANK in my aquarium!

Half a year ago I bought a 6ft Waterbox fish tank. I always wanted to take advantage of the peninsula style by creating a cliff face/river bank scape at the base of the tank. However, after many attempts, I still couldn't quite get it right!

A couple of months ago, my friend Nick introduced me to Jason Sulda on a rainbow fish catching trip. Jason has his own channel Australian Biotopes where he documents and creates biotopes of native environments. I was lucky enough to have Jason offer to create the scape I had always wanted for this tank and he did an INCREDIBLE job. In this video I show you exactly how he did it so you can enjoy watching the process and maybe learn a thing or two about aquascaping!
