So nice you came here and pay tribute to Filipe. He was a very good man and a wonderful aquascaper. Thank you!

Welcome to portugal. Portuguese long time viewer here.

The angel fish and the discus were sooo cute! ❤ They are my favorite fish, have always been. The aquariums are extremely beautiful. So many inspirations! Thank you for showing us these shops.

Soluções aquáticas is the shop I go to most of the times! Ivo and Patricia are really amazing 👍

What a space that must have been, wow! I close my eyes and can imagine the sounds and feel of the room with all those tanks around. Those are some hella lucky fish 🤙

Wow amazing! I'm a frequent customer of that last store. Great and helpful people!

Its always so nice to watch your scape tours from different shops, as it always gives me inspiration to improve my own tanks.

Quite unusual -- but very beautiful -- aquascapes compared to what I usually see on KZfaq. Certainly provide food for thought.

I really like the straight dive into the part we want to see the most! The tanks! It was really nostalgic to see Filipe's tanks..theres very little footage of those works honestly... Thank you for sharing the detailed stuff like the lights, diffusers, filtration etc... Great work!

Thanks again Mark, I appreciate that you always get straight to the point without further ado. What a calm and relaxing presentation combined with appropriate underlying music. Also, a big thanks for reminding us on Filipe and displaying his extraordinary layouts at original locations. I may add Tanichthys albonubes, the cardinal fish which escaped your mind.

the video deserved to be longer! Tks for the tours! Greetings from Portugal.

These tours are leveling up

It’s “my Shop” since the beginning of its existence! ❤

Great tour, thank you.

Portugal is a small country with amazing aquarium shops. One of the main reasons is due to our dear friend FILIPE OLIVEIRA Aka FAAO who has inspired so many thousands hobbiests all these years. Great video, btw, congratulations! :)

beautiful aquascape + your commentary = win

You sound so humble... Full of kind humility... Love your take on these scapes.. best wishes.. keep going

Those are great stores! I really wish there was a store near me like that. Thanks for showing their scaped tanks.

🙏 Such lovingly care for fishes & water plants for sale in this shop! Thank You So Much for their Love & Professionalism in their work & service! 🌷🌿🌎💜🐠

those were some really beautiful scapes, thanks for sharing!

Thank you so much. Very interesting. Nice scapes.

your folgs are insane stunning - thx for sharing!

Love those videos thanks !

Nice shops overthere. The new twinstar EA4 series is really nice.

Very nice! 😁🌿🍁🐟

Thanks for the tours mate! Wish I had just one shop like this in my city haha beautiful scapes! Felipe is truly missed! He was always kind to me and answered all my questions when I started scaping! Still waiting on your move to the states Mark 😉 I hope all is well with you!

What a treat 🐠💓🪴

i like your content man! keep it up.

❤❤gorgeous shops

Amazing shop. That running "tap" was great.

Excellent video!!! I'm glad you enjoyed the aquarium shops in Portugal, more specifically here in Lisbon. The "casa dos discus" is my shop of choice. It's where I practically buy everything. Very good people.

a great video it's always a pleasure to watch your videos, a big like brazil...

Thanks for sharing this all beauty

Masterpiece aquarium shop ❤.

I went to Aquaeden yesterday, first time, and it was stunning. Thans for the tour.

Eerste bak, een van de Hoplo catfish familie, Kwikwi in het Surinaams, wordt daar veel gegeten. Leuke tour!

조명이랑 레이아웃 스타일이 완전 제 취향🥰🥰🥰🥰

Hope you enjoyed your Stay . Greetings from Portugal!

Video very very nice 😍😍😍👍👍👍

So jealous you get to see this in person!! 💯❤️🤙🏼

Nice trip mark, please go on ... 👋

You were so close to my home. i'm from lisbon and these stores are my choice for gear and fish. I hope you enjoyed Portugal 😊✌

Thanks!

Wat een pareltjes! Elke tank was super op zijn eigen manier... Wow!

Nice video!

Nice video!!!

Wellcome to Portugal! Aquaeden is top. Hope you enjoy Portugal 😉

Nice aquarium shops

Good aquascaping shops... there are also some nice reef aquarium shops in Portugal

Hi Mark, so glad you got to meet Aquaeden and A Casa dos Discus :) they're actually the 2 stores where I get most of my aquascaping stuff. Hope you enjoyed my country!! Oh and btw: my two setups are now a year and a half old and still going strong! Really happy with them. Filipe was a big inspiration and it's so sad that he is no longer with us...I'm sure he is still scaping on the other side. Keep up the great work! :)

I use to watch your vedio when i was in nepal than dubai than malta and last watching from portugal shop in portugal 😊😊

Thanks for the tour, how I wish for something like this nearby. Would love to have seen the sales tanks and see what prices plants bring around the world, but I guess you can't have it all 😁 amazing display tanks 👌

Please do longer videos on every aquascapes.....really wanted to see close ups of a lot of scapes, especially the 180cm scape in the first store..

Nice video

a few years back i hit lisbon for the amano exhibit and went to this store as well! i wish i would have gone to felipe's store but didnt have time on my trip!

Your shop tours are always very cool…. Thanks for the tour. Hopefully you didn’t have to pay extra baggage weight charge 😉

One of the scapes reminded me a bit of Morla from The Never Ending Story 👌

Hey handsome!! You need to make a Bumblebee Goby nano tank!! You’d love them! They are adorable!! And have tons of funny personality!! Look them up and purchase some! I would love to see you do a bumblebee Goby setup

Super video......mj TOP😊

💚💚💚

I dont like angel fish, but that tank is stunning and id gladly have that entire set up in my house.

Interesting to see that they are fighting with red algea in nearly all tanks. That shows that no matter how perfect you work and look onto nutritions it can still happen

God bless Filipe

Really curious about the humidity level in the store with this beautiful emersed growth!

Living in an aquarium industry desert is not easy but the challenge is interesting. It would be too easy to just walk down the street and purchase everything I need (and don’t need).

de tank en die " open stand" met het hout in de hoeken en metaal in het midden is ook van Amtra btw .... prijzig gevalletje

👍

Like the scapes but some weird fish choices. Rasboras for example would be nicer fo4 the diorama style tank jnstead of the cardinals

Aquaeden, near my home, and the best on in portugal

Bravo from Romania Dracula land ❤

👍👍👍👋

😍😍😍😍😍👌👌👌👌👌

Hi MJ, my tank is a 85L, medium planted, highly stocked, CO2 injected. Half of the tank is covered with red plants (various Ludwigia, nymphaea lotus red and echinodorus sword red flame) as light I have Chihiros WRGB II Slim60 (the tank is 80cm long). The light gives to me around 27lm x litres. Do you think that a stronger light (like WRGB2 Pro60 or the WRGB2 Pro80) are better? Honestly i can't decide between the mentioned by me, can you help me? Thanks

1:07 what are the plants with the big leaves (growing out of the water) in the background called? He mentions a name at 1:50 but I'm not sure if he's talking about the same plant or how to spell that 😅

😍👌

apart from the great scapes and videos, your biceps are coming along nicely as well buddy ;)

I think that was a haplo catfish

How long does your substrate last usually in a aqua scape? Can you just (in theory) keep the same substrate in a fully planted aquarium and make it last a very long time?

Why does the first place have all their diffusers so high up? Almost seems like they wouldn’t be doing much

Not only aquarium i asure you😂

Здравствуйте! Пиннатифида у вас красная. Скажите пожалуйста, как вы добиваетесь такого цвета!? Спасибо!

I need to know what kind of catfish that was.

I have some aquarium designs. Can we connect?

Te recomiendo pasar algún día por la tienda PZES en Madrid , España. Te va a encantar . Un saludo

🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹

Portuguese fish shops are on the next level. So what are we doing living somewhere else?

🫶👍👋🇫🇷

Jaqen h’ghar

Like i said viva portugal😈

WELCOME TO BRAZIL

Portuguese aquarium intagramm content is another kind of next level, but the bad one.. I still think there should be a report button for animal cruelty on social media

Man, recently i visit exactly that 3 stores, and yes, they are excelent and shows beautifull tanks. Portuguese level of Aquascaping is very High ! . I recorded material and when have a time , will edit a video, literally a copy of your video 🤣 Regards from Chile 😉
