I am a new subscriber and I have to say you have some beautiful tank setups! Great video. A new fan from the USA. 😊
Have you ever considered having open days? I, for one, would love to have a look round your studio, for a fee if necessary.
Really recommend a group of Pearl Gouramis.
As not only are the a pretty and decent sized fish but in my experience at least once mature are better at encouraging smaller fish to shoal better.
As the mature males become a little bit more secretive, still coming out but also spend a significant amount of time hidden in the plants especially around the territory they make. And will chase off (not seriously attack just give a chase) to other males that get too close to their territory.
Having a 5inch fish come darting out of the plants suddenly is pretty good at mildly spooking small fish. Not making them panic, avoid food etc just ball up a bit better and feel more comfortable staying in tighter groups than roaming around mindlessly.
I've found they're some of the better fish for encouraging this behaviour as while big enough and willing to chase enough to trigger this their mouths aren't big enough to eat small fish.
19:04 right bottom corner !!! Neon fish with a damaged tail - I hope it's just a bite and not thrush or some disease...
They look tiny in that tank!
"This tank is almost fully stocked now" Next week on MD Fish tanks, the 16FT aquarium gets delivered! 😁 Phenomenal, beautiful piece of work on this MD. Congrats 👏
I was thinking more like, he buys a house, rips out the insides, waterproofs the whole thing, and uses that as an aquarium, of course planting every square inch in the most beautiful and amazing way. You can see the fish as you walk or drive by simply by looking through the windows. No garden front or back. Just a house turned into a massive fish tank with some truly stunning hardscape and plants. Poor Kate would have to put on diving gear to scrape down the windows.
@@ChompchompyerdedI like it. Sounds like a collab with Colin Furze's name all over it 😂 Pitch it to Colin, MD, bet he'd be well up for that project haha
You don't understand how happy I would be if I had a tank like this. I mean imagine waking up, rubbing your eyes walking towards the living room and watching this tank in all its glorious amazingness.
I don't understand why people would complain about putting a lot of plants in at the start. It's far better to go hard on the plants early on and go extremely slow on adding fish than the other way around. It's perfectly fine to save up for the fish afterwards if you are low on budget.
plus he does this to ensure quicker video production and less algae, more plants just makes sense all around if you can afford it. maybe they're just jealous.
Well I understand. One pot costs between €4 -8 in my local fish shop. There is a solution though, propagate your own aquarium plants in tubs with soil and some led lights. Like on the excellent UA-cam channel Aquarium plant lab. It takes some time and patience but it produces a lot of healthy plants without breaking the bank.
Why would a person complain about another man's money is beyond me. He can do what he wants with his money.
I personally don't like the jungle look. I prefer the contemporary look.
I recently did my first fully planted tank, and I took MD's advice on planting heavy to start and it worked like a charm
Well that was a perfectly timed update - literally just sat down for lunch and now I get top quality content to enjoy while I eat :) I love this tank…
Why do people get annoyed at the amount of plants that you start with? You're a content creator who is trying to share what your vision for the tanks should be. Makes sense for you to overload the plants to make it look as close to final as possible. I actually quite love it!
The biggest mistake most people do when starting off a planted aquarium is NOT planting heavily to start! It helps with balancing and getting everything dialed in right away asap. It's the best thing someone can do to when starting off! The people that complain about it are delulu lmao
@@sableknight8061 I totally agree. I work in a pet store. I don't know how many times I've said "Buy more live plants" last month 😅 So many people buy fish, just one or maybe two plants, get a lot of issues and try to buy different types of things to put in the aquarium to get rid of all their problem. But all those things are often some kind of liquid in a bottle that they don't really need. Or they want to buy a pleco. And there I go saying that they should buy something completely different, but the customers do come back again and again and again, so I guess they like what I'm doing.
‘Keep it tamed” we’ll see!! Lol the 8ft aquarium look grand!!
I've always had planted tanks in my bedroom on set timers for the lighting. I love waking up to my tanks and going to bed watching my tanks. I always had a peaceful sleep and always woke up with a fresh good morning.
This has been by far one of the coolest aquariums I've seen you set up. With the addition of the angels it just makes the amazon biotope feeling. Truly amazing!
That’s a thing of beauty. I’d have a couch right in front to watch all the time. You were right about the angels being stunning in the environment. Looks great!
That tank is a showpiece for sure. Also, the mix of fish is excellent. That is exactly how I would do this. Great plan and work.
That Java fern is going to go berserk. I had some in a c02 tank on top of drift wood like that before and it took over half my tank on accident. The problem is that you cant just trim it like a stem plant or other easy plants to propagate when it turns into a bush like that. You have to find the longer leaves manually and clip those
Beautifully planted and beautifully stocked! You've spoiled us again MD😄
Hey MD, I use the FX6/FX4 filters on aquariums and a very easy mess free way to disconnect them from the hoses is to leave the power on shut the intake hose valve off then fully disconnect the hose. Once that is done then let it bubble for a few seconds then close the outlet valve but DO NOT disconnect this hose until you unplug the power supply. If you follow these steps there will be enough of an air pocket in the top of the canister to allow the lid to be removed mess free. Thanks for another great video you aquarium looks great
Beautiful! You have done an amazing job with all your tanks not just the 8ft. Thank you for sharing your ups and downs and not just the good things.
Looking all Ants Canada in that thumbnail. "Welcome to these lands my Angel Queens..." 😊
Had to look that up because I didn't know what it was. What an awesome channel. Didn't even know I would be interested in ants 😂😂
@@MDFishTanks it's a great laugh. He's very good at what he does, knows how to build a following and use suspense to keep people coming back.
I thought exactly the same thing! 😂
Wow! Your tank gets more beautiful each time you showcase it. Thanks for sharing.
Close the inlet and run the FX6 for 5 sec and then unplug and close off the out quickly and you drain some out of the main holding to make cleaning a bit easier, instead of the little drain at the bottom which can be delicate.
To your point about stock, I've experienced the same thing. People love to see tons of colors and activity in tanks. That's what makes your builds stand out. Purist keepers might flinch a bit, but the fish and plants are healthy, and people love the tanks overall - and that's what's most important!
Love watching plecos feeding on the front of the tanks, we call them out gremlins. I think their underside is more interesting than looking at them from the top
Just when I think it's perfect you make it better. Awesome!!
Wow! So beautiful! You’re such an artist. Great plants and awesome fish picks. Well done!!
😮 Bootiful, for me Angels are the poster fish of the hobby, awesome job mate 👏
You have taught me so much. Way more than anyone else on You Tube. Just got back into the hobby after 15 years. So much has changed. THANKS AGAIN!! OH!! Really cool tank! (the best) CHEERS!
The tank looks amazing! I love the Angels in there. Your aquariums are very inspiring. Thank you.
That is an amazing fish tank. I love what you are doing in your studio. Thanks to you I restarted my own small 38l tank. And I’m happy with it like never before. Thank you!
Got that AntsCanada thumbnail... Really nice tank MD!
BTW sterbai corys would be beautiful in here
"Wary" = on guard, watchful. "Weary" = tired.
Absolutely gorgeous and fascinating to watch!
The angels look super amazing in that tank!!!
I have been waiting for this day! The tank is looking super awesome. You are an amazing artist. Thank you!
This is probably my favorite tank that you have ever done. I've dreamed of doing a large planted tank with loads of tiny fish. I love enjoying the hobby vicariously through you! Looking forward to watching this tank mature with you.
Just an unbelievable tank. Fantastic work, MD.
absolutely gorgeous! loved all those nice beauty shots at the end, I’d def love a standalone video with some pretty shots and music as a companion to this tank. great work!
This tank has just exceeded my expectations. It’s breathtakingly beautiful. So so well done. It’s just perfect. ❤
Really nice. That must be very calming to watch.
Absolute masterpiece, MD! So beautiful and balanced. Can't wait to watch this one grow and settle further in. Cheers on another success
I’ve been watching you from the beginning and you’ve come a very long way! Your 8’ is absolutely stunning. Great job! Take care!
Absolutely stunning, MD!!!
The perfect thumbnail for this video too! 🔥
thanks, I thought it would make a change from just the net going into the water.
@@MDFishTanks Very cinematic!
Ein echt wunderschön bepflanzter Riesenpott! 👍Die Skalare sind nun auch endlich in dieses große Aquarium umgezogen! 😀
What an absolutely gorgeous tank. Well done!
Wow MD this looks phenomenal. Love it ❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks MD, I learned so much and owe much of my success with my tanks to you!
I absolutely agree, plants are so beneficial so I always heavily plant when starting a new aquarium. I know from personal experience my heavily planted 29 gal never had an issue consuming any ammonia and nitrite at lightening speed (unlike my 10 gal with a few slow growing plants). When the plants settled in my 29 I never had an issue with ammonia/nitrite spiking. It makes life so much easier, also the plants are beautiful and watching them grow brings me so much joy (the fish feel safer too so everyone wins!)
This tank looks amazing! Such good use of all that volume, and so much more captivating than chucking some big arowana or something like that in there!
Its bloody epic mate ! Best one yet, looking forward to see it grow in and them angels get grown. Keep up the awesome content, got me hooked !
Absolutely amazing looking 👌🏻 😍 well done MD..
Yep scape first then plants then fish ( perfect)! Thanks again MD 🐠🙌😉Karen from Oz 🇦🇺🐨🦘
The tank is absolutely gorgeous 😍😍
Absolutely stunning set up mate, well done 👏
Interesting community tank with a complete jungle in it, normally I would say too much plant, but tank is huge and the size balanced out the plant ammount to okay level as it seems. Nice job. ❤
Love it, looks so beautiful!
This tank is amazing. Thanks for making such s beautiful ecosystem
WOW. What a stunning tank. Congrats
Congrats MD👍 Did a great job in this aquarium👌👌. It looks Fantastic. You are the real inspiration for me and you are the reason i have five tank in my home..
Such an awesome tank! Thank you for sharing it with us!
Absolutely beautiful.😃
Amazing tank; best one yet!
This is my dream tank. I'll never be able to put one this big in my house. This turned out so good. Looking forward to updates. Need to do a video of just music and this tank. ❤
So epic! Masterpiece. I reckon the tank deserves a few really nice Discus. Would look good with like 4 big discus
Such an amazing tank wow blows me away
Wow, tank looks amazing.
Looks amazing the best tank you have done to date
Looks fabulous.
That tank makes a statement of WOW. It looks beautiful.
That size tank is my dream!! I love the variety and quantity of fish in there. Watching your videos made me get back into the hobby a year or so ago, I love the idea of a tank that can look after itself. One of my all-time favourite fish is the Black Ghost Knife Fish, I would love to see you do something for one of those.
Lovely video i watched for higher quality on and see this video ❤❤
Absolutely beautiful ❤
Wow looks amazing, the angels were the perfect choice❤
Looks incredible. I'm massively jealous.
You should get a few freshwater crabs. I just got one with bright red claws. Its fun watching him scuttle around.
Beautiful scape mate. Thanks for sharing. 😎👊👍🇦🇺
Beautiful MD! You should do a video on water parameters for planted tanks. It's not very clear in the aquarium world, and I think a video from the master would help!
Well done sir 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 you are truly an inspiration !🐠
Beautiful job!
I’d love like 10 minute video just looking at the tank, it’s so serene
I like the aquarium just the way it is! beautiful..
Amazing. keep up the good job!
what a showpiece MD, really highlights how good an aquarium can look with plants most people can grow without Co2 (obviously that helps 😆). this freshwater tank definitely showcases well against home marine setups.
Love love love this tank!! So awesome. Gina
Awesome update, can't wait for Cory's 🙂Going to pop any snails in? The amano's and pleco's did amazing! Such a lovely big tank.
Very impressive 😀 great to see the knowledge you have gained over the years has stood you in good stead for setting up the 8 foot aquarium. What a thing of beauty. I also noticed some Michael Jordan vibes in the thumbnail :)
Gorgeous!
Very nice. A real dream.
Beautiful as ever ❤
Been watching on and off since 200k subs, keep up the great work!😮👍
Absolutely beautiful seriously jealous lol thanks MD for the inspiration
Looks great!
I jsut really hope MD u re gonna keep up on the maintenance. this tank looks so GOOD !
Perfect break time entertainment 👌
Looking AWESOME MAN!!!!!!
It would be incredibly cool to see one of your three foot tanks planted up and stocked with multiple types of glass fish. Just a bunch of see through fish in different shapes and sizes.
That tank is looking fabulous. You're such an artist with your scaping
Seize does matter.
Very beautifull 😍
Those angels look so amazing in there, I'll be curious to see how much bigger they'll get with that amount of space, and if they possibly pair off with all the territories they can claim in there. Wouldn't that be awesome!
Got my frog! t-shirt today, and I love the little fella!
Great stuff. That 8 foot is very cool. Maybe a tip for catching out fish. I have a couple of different sizes kitchen cutting boards and use a cutting board to divide the aquarium. Make sure the fish are at the front and catch em out with a net.
Fantastic tank
Stunning. ❤❤❤
Yes, cory's really like to dig. I've added my bandits about a month ago and they shift some sand around for sure. Btw, they've left some eggs in the quarantine tank! Counted four babies in total! They are growing up so fast!
Tank looks amazing fella. If I had the room I would love an 8 footer.
