  • Wow! Incredible podcast.

    I am so thankful to have found this podcast. It really helped me answer some questions that I had about lighting. I was struggling to find information that did more than scratch the surface of the topic. I also was helped by the episode on the dry start method. I love that the podcasts take a scientific approach to subjects in a clear and understandable format. There is so much (sometimes too much) opinion based information out there about the hobby, that it is difficult for me to discern what m... more

  • Dry Start Method

    Your Dry Start Method episode from 2015 may have saved me from disaster. I had too much water & too much humidity. Duh. "DRY start" right. Caught it early, I think we might survive. ;-) Thanks! Be well!

  • Just the Podcast I've been Searching for!

    I just discovered the Scape Fu Podcast about a month ago. Since downloading my first episode, I've been binge listening while traveling. I'm absolutely obsessed with the freshwater planted tank and have been on the lookout for something like this. When researching topics and techniques I often have to pour through forums to get contradictory and anecdotal advice. This podcasts addresses almost every issue I have ever wondered about. If you were to just choose one to listen to I highly reccomend ... more

  • Learn best how to grow weeds in a box

    I have recently taken up the planted aquarium hobby. Art and his team were A light in the dark for a new person such as myself to better navigate the plethora of information that is out there. The topics are germane, well presented and an excellent resource for newbies and experienced aquarists alike. The casual conversation between the hosts is easy to listen to on a drive or when i was doing aquarium maintenance.

    Unfortunately, I am writing this when ScapeFu is no longer creating new content... more

  • Look forward to it each time

    Really nice podcast that has nicely matured in format over time. Very good information that is very accessible to every sort of planted tank enthusiast. Have particularly enjoyed their branching into different offshoot approaches, and their attempts to keep enough information in there to be useful without being overwhelming.

  • Inspiring

    While listening to these podcasts, I have said several times to myself "I'll have to try that". It's fascinting stuff for anyone who wants to move beyond the "fish-tank" to a more natural and beautiful living piece of art. Time was when that description woul NOT have enticed me to turn in that direction, but as keepers of these plants and animals, we should strive to do our best. Understanding how to do that is important therefore. ScapeFu helps with that and includes a great range of topics... more
