---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the last video of this tank, we prepared to add more fish by raising the water level and the rocks that stop Pancho from going behind....
After that, I got very busy with other projects...but now is the time to add those fish... and I got a LOT of fish!!
Customary appearance from my boys as well :)

Thank you all for your concern expressed in some of the below comments. Regarding the gills....they are exactly as they have been since i first got Pancho...nothing has changed with or without the addition of these fish. Regarding the light, Pancho has a lot of places she can hide in caves etc and still does not which would indicate to me she is happy with the lighting, plus the light looks brighter on camera. Regarding developing a fungus and becoming sick....it's been basically a month since this video was published and she is looking better than ever! Thank you very much for commenting and watching my videos :)
MD Fish Tanks He’s going to get sick and he’s going to die. He’s going to be exposed to fish borne illness because he is in a contained environment with fish which is a no-no. I don’t know why you’re being so stupid and stubborn just to prove a point and kill an animal
Hi... I sal al Your videos. You see a good man and actively one. Can you make a campaign to safe the axololt in wild habitat. I saw a video of a local guy saying that they have a plan... if you want I can send you a link here
@@robertpress2661 thats incorrect my friend he was exposed to much ore aggressive fish int the wild im sure md fish tanks only got tame fish to put with her and im sure he has enough common cence to get fish that wont get pancho sick and theres no need to be rude to him
I have a Male axolotl same morph and hes about 3 time the size definitely older then yours by a little its beautiful to watch him grow with as many plants as I have I don't have to do as many water changes either the light isn't a issue hes by a window he has a natural day and night cycle and he eats any fish I put in my tank the more I put the quicker they go lol but bottom feeders like ghost shrimp and snails help with the purity of my water as well I think you are amazing and every axolotl deserves a more biological setup such as your. Keep up your amazingness lol
And Robert press to you sir unless you are a major in aquatic sciences and or a axolotl breeder or expert worry about your own fish tank. If you don't like how he keeps his aquatic life then just don't watch his video they are schooling fish with small bones so they can't hurt his axolotl and if the axolotl eats them there is no impaction when he/she poops and if MD got these fish from a proper pet store there shouldn't be and illness that little axolotl can get. So don't judge unless you know all your facts and the tank is big enough with enough places to hide the axolotl and fish can remove them selves quite easily

Hsjxksksoskkssk nice
@@ConfusedSalmon erhfshifsibhsihbfibhsdibhffibhsf thanks :D
I’m hyped that u mentioned getting turtle but idk about a musk turtle cause they are literally musky. But idk any other turtles that stay a decent size?! Have fun with it tho!!
Oh and they make this thing called the turtle penthouse it goes on top of the tank u might like it!
You should do a darter fish aquascape
please make a mudskipper tank!
Early next year :)
MD Fish Tanks yess!
Hey MD, love the tank but as a axoltol and reptile enthusiast some things could make it better.
Add some hides in for your axoltol to be able to feel safe more often and hide it's gills away from those other fish.
Your set inspired me to get a planted tank for mine. Keep it up man love your work
Mate.. I couldn’t help but laugh when you told the kids about exploiting their reactions for us 😂 love the Danio army man, great choice of fish!
haha. Keep it real lol
The axolotl literally caught a fish at 15:06
This guy is offically an idiot.
He was fast but defenetly got one!
He missed
@@mrkrabs5729 this time
@@mrkrabs5729 ya if u go in slow mode he missed
Good to see others who transport their fish this way 😉👍
Im thinking about getting them their own child seat :D
@@MDFishTanks Thats not a bad idea 😉
Haha, I usually have my fiancée hold them, and frequently ask him if they are doing alright, to which I get THAT look lol
When he called his son baby 😢❤️ soooo cuuuuuuttteeee
I feed my lotls Minnows 4x a month. I noticed it really helps with their senses when it comes to finding food by letting them hunt as they do in the wild.
HAHAHA "lovin the gloves, bit kinky!" i died of laughter! Loving the new fish for this setup! Thanks for posting mate always loving the videos!
Thanks spencer
15:07 Pancho definitely caught a fish
Stunning tank! I'm assuming Pancho has passed away as we haven't seen him in 3 years- While I love the tank, for any Axolotl keepers, please remember they prefer dark and still water. Sacrificing their comfort for a beautiful tank is cruel & there are numerous parts of this tank that would stress Pancho out severely and lead to developing disease or infection.. It's much more important to create the best living conditions for the animal first and foremost, & design the best you can from there without sacrificing their comfort. I'm still a big fan of MD and his designs, but it's obvious the animals are second to the scape.
I love your tank setup and all the plants for the axolotl and great choice for substrate! Though, If you plan to keep the light on your tank I would recommend getting a water safe reptile cave so it can escape the light when it needs to. Also, it is safe to keep cloud minnows with axolotls if supervised but other fish will nip at their gills and have spines that can hurt the axolotl if it eats one. There is also a risk of choking if it tries to eat the snail. A good rule with axolotls is to just keep it an axolotl only tank.
thanks for the comments. There is a full cave structure in the tank in the shaded area. Danios and WCMM do not nip at my axolotls gills. I have observed for months and zero issues. This is Pancho's tank...she's the BOSS!!
Great job mate! Particular love the interaction with the boys. Make the most of it - Give them 10 years and they’ll be far too embarrassed to appear on your vids! 😊😂
morning, george!
haha. Loving the fact that you think I'll still be vloging in 10 years....fingers crossed because i love this! Just off out to buy a new camera...I think it's time lol.
If you think an axolotl won't eat those tiny things you're in for a shock my friend
Well the axolotl is quite little and it’ll get used to it later.
Even if she does, if he got female and male fish, they will produce more so it shouldn't be an issue with having them in there..unless you don't want them to get eaten at all then yeah you would need to separate..because there is always the chance it will eat them.
So cute how your kids put their hands on the aquarium while watching you put the fish
I loved that you called your son baby. My son is 14 and I still call him that and he answers haha.
Love seeing you include your boys in your hobby, it lets them know they are valued and an important, I wish more parents would share their hobbies with kids and join in their kids hobbies, it's the best thing ever (my son is a gamer so he kicks my ass on multiplayer games but I love spending that time with him).
looks like a meal for that sweet lotl
I'm confused. I was considering a getting an axolotl to do a 'dragon in the mountain' theme but I decided against it since I read that they can't be kept with fish. They try and succeed with eating fish. If the fish has a lot of sharp fins they can choke the axie and kill it. Good luck to you but I would advise being on high alert especially when the axie gets bigger.
You got some awesome fishes . The tank is looking even better now.
The danios look great. I love Pancho and his tank. It's one of my favorites. 👍🤗🍄
15:07 Pancho definitely got one of the fish...
It's possible but looked more like plants to me. I know what he she is like
No she missed her bite
Definitely didn’t miss. She suck that right up lol. Rip little fish. It happens
@@evankaiser3992 Valentin Poullaouec is right. It was a near miss. Turn the resolution up to 720 or 1080 (that gives you get 60 frames per second), and turn the playback speed down to 0.25. The fish escapes (barely) and swims away to Pancho's left. Pancho won't always miss, though.
I had mudskippers when I was in like 5th grade, I’m a junior in college now. I loved them so much, one of my favorite fish for sure. So much personality! And you can hand feed them.
So beautiful the shoaling fishes...and the way you work it with the boys, you're a fun dad and quite amusing for me too, actually, you crack me up and your method and slo mo makes it easy to learn...thanks
Amazing beautiful. Your so talented.
Thank you for the advice it's so much easier just using the tap instead of constantly boiling the kettle over an over.
X
Fantastic video! Great watching your boys enjoy your setups!! 👍🏼👍🏼
A friend of me who keeps two grown Axolotl's eated all the fish in the tank! Nice video dude :)
The mudskippers are just sooo cute! I know they grow to be quite the size so just imagine them waddling about in a tank!! :D
do they? is that not fully grown...more research needed!
@@MDFishTanks Think there are different sub-spicies of them, the periophthalmus graciis only grows to like 6 cm, but the more common one periophthalmus barbarus grows to be 25 cm :) I only did the research because I got curious when I saw them on your video.
Aww the weather loaches!! I love those guys. Have 3 of them myself, and oh my gosh, are they the life and soul of my tank. They feed from your hand and "kiss" you as they feed. No good in a planted tank though, they uproot everything, but I wouldn't change them for the world
In my humble opinion, your videos are of the highest quality and quite enjoyable to watch. And yes, my shrimps and fish were seatbelts too :-)
haha. Thanks very much. Id say they are ok for vlog style vids :)
I have no doubt as your axie grows it'll find the fish irresistable. I have a fully grown axie and occasionally I treat him to a handful (6-8) rosies and at first he struggled to catch them but now they rarely last more than a day.
Really cool to see how far MD has come.
I love that this has all the moving water from the little spouts behind the rocks. Have you considered doing an aquaterrarium with a visible waterfall?
yes i will do this soon
That is seriously one heck of a fish shed!!!
So awesome
Hey
I myself have kept axolotls for the last 7 years and you have to be carefull with the Fish u add because most fish nipp an the gills of axolotls !
Also the „axolotl Community“ here in Germany has the consent that wood should not Go their tank because it makes them very prone to diseases (a lot of bactiria on it) so maybe just if she gets sick have look at that maybe
have a great day
Haven’t watched yet, but I know this is going to be awesome!!! 💚
It's awful...dont bother haha
Md fish tanks, Im just new to your channel but to me your aquariums are the best natural looking scapes I've ever seen.
Nice MD . iv set up my first proper dirted planted tank yesterday . I'm going back the pet shop today to get more plants YOU/ LRB /AND FATHER FISH . have inspired me to do them thanks for the video 👍 ✌ 🙏
awesome. Good luck :)
@@MDFishTanks 👍
You have the best fish tanks i can't imagine the amount of work you must put in to maintain those tanks
thank you for teaching me to use teezers to help clean sand.
Omg your boys are soo adorable! Cant wait to see the tank they make one day!!!!
Santa OMG 😲......🤣😂😄 he looked quite deflated. Outstanding viewing again. Your boys are really cute. Im glad they didn't see Santa in that sorry state.Thank you for sharing.❤
Apparently it was because of high wind....surely santa is not effected by high wind??
@@MDFishTanks Too many prunes in his diet maybe.🤔 Oh a different kind of wind. ...atmospheric.👍🏼
Your work is so beautiful..so is your family. It's nice to see them in your videos. It makes you part of ours. Thank you. I'm soooooo stuck on my 240 g. I'm blank. It sits empty. I could go outside and pluck up those ferns and more from the yard and pond(1/4acre) I'll thinking about removing a cypress tree and planting in the tank!! and go from there. Ugh. Will share pics if I do. Thank you for sharing your passion and talent. Such an inspiration. Ps. Love the music as well
I think that some ficus pumila in the plant section of the tank would look really cool (or maybe some other vine)
nice, I'll take a look.
Dude! Right after you feed the fish Pancho totally grabs one and eat it in the background LOL 🤣 you need to go back and see it! It’s soon after the boys leave. That wasn’t a plant she was eating. Right at 15:07 into the video
I love Pancho, she’s my favourite 🥰
Brilliant tank and yes, I belt up my fish and corals in the car :)
Stunning aquascape design on that tank. Brilliant.
thank you. Its basically a pile of rocks and ferns lol
@@MDFishTanks So is this planet. The trick is how you put it all together.
I've commented before about you possibly joining an axolotl group on Facebook because I feel like you could gain knowledge from it. To me, the gills or "fluffs" on your axolotl do not look good and this is probably due to all of the fish in there. It is also possible that if it gets too stressed by the fish it will develop fungus which is potentially life threatening
I'm a member of many fb axolotl groups and there's great info to be found there for sure! But honestly the gills don't look that bad to me. Some axolotls just have lighter gills. When you see the ones that are actually sick there is literally nothing there but a stump. I have one axolotl that has gorgeous floofy gills and one whos gills are fully intact and have many filaments, but they are thin and always have been. I do think he's pushing it with some of the things he has in the tank with them though.
Great job mate looks stunning 👌
Oh so happy to see the kids in the studio
Yeah they dont come in there much as not much space...but in the new studio :D
Those monster fish were gorgeous.
yep
And thanks for my t-shirt. Great quality...... 👍🏻😁
"Perform for me !" ahaha
haha :D
What is the name of that amphibian?
@@josephrivera386 Pancho (Axolotl)
I love Danios! I had zebra Danios when I first started out with my Tropical tank! I'm more of a guppy girl now tho! And betta ofc! 👍🏻 Great video! Your boys are adorable!!! 👍🏻
thank you.
Thanks for answering! Rummy nose are pretty awesome fish :)
no probs :P
Good looking boys you got there...
Great video mate, really enjoyed this one thank you
i got hyped by your intro, mate. love it!
🙋♂️ I also seatbelt the fish ... missus sits in the back 😂
Wow! I had to go back and stop the vid so i could take a better look.. Looks like it already has the potential to be your best scape to date, Marc! Literally cannot wait for the vid! 👀👌❤
haha. Confused what you meant then. The Fallen tree yeah. Yeah should be a good one.
@@MDFishTanks looking fabulous already :D
@@martisl9652 will be a bit different this one...
@@MDFishTanks i can already tell ..loving the textures/details and layering of it. Achieving this look without piling on the substrate in the back isnt all that easy to achieve
@@martisl9652 a strong wind and its all coming down :D
So amazing and beautiful fishes....I also have zabra danios fishes in my planted tank...so beautiful fishes...
They swimming so amazing..great choice sir ..now tank looks pretty good...u r awesome... keep it up
MD: “we can get 20 to 30 more!”
Wallet: “oh CRAP”
All your tanks are just awesome!!! You have a magical touch!!! And I love your family too!!! Your boys are too cute and smart!!! Does the baby like the fishes too???
thanks. She stares at the discus tank
love your videos man. great content a lot of ideas. about to start a small planted vase with ponds snails more so for my work desk where I might not have the time to take care of it. but excellent channel. makes me want to start a 55 long axolotl tank.
do it!
Man your kids are so funny, a big Hugh for them from Argentina 🇦🇷
Love your Videos, best regards from Germany and i Wish all of you merry x mas
The paladuraim is just stunning
Hey love your videos,And I love fish,
Nice that you still have cinematic endings since UA-cam told you some people switch off. I appreciate having a closer look 👌🏻
Dad was being more excited than the kids 😝😆
He definitely got one of those fish 🙈😂
lol. I would agree, but i know how often she bites plants even when im dangling bloodworm cubes in her face haha
@@MDFishTanks its completely understandable thou as they feed mostly on movement dont they.
I know I saw
I'm sure she got one
That’s sad. That fish didn’t have to die that way. He could have prevented it. If you can see it’s eaten a fish then should’ve removed it straight away!
The screwdriver was so cute !!!!
Nice terrarium
6:08 seeing the steering wheel on the other side of the car cracks me up.. lol.. nice set up by the way i was planing on doing something like this for an African clawed frog
Future Aquarium lover's 👍Absolutely adorable the boys are . It amazing how interested they are with the fish .
That beats the videos and games on TV.
Real life experience with their father . How cool is that !
Looking forward to them creating future tanks.👍
Yeah but really, it because they love UA-cam and want to be on the tv haha
@@MDFishTanks 😆Then " Future UA-cam Stars " it is. 👍
That was such a cute thing to ask! 🤣 a screw driver! 👌 gotta love kid's 😉
I know this video is over 2 years old now, but I don't see where anyone commented about him actually catching a fish! Go to 15:06, and slow the playback to 0.25 speed. Watch the lower left corner, and he snaps at a fish which darts away into the glass. It then goes to it's left into the corner, and then turns back around. Pancho snatches it as it tries to go back by, and the tip of it's fin is what is sticking out of his mouth in the closeup. It is clearest right as you pull away.
That looks really good!
cheers Charlie :)
Another great video mate looking forward to your next projects mud skippers or shell dwellers or whatever it will be great
thanks Sean...new project release on Sunday hopefully.
@@MDFishTanks lol that's even better i only have Sunday off for the rest of the month
Hello Mark! What a great video and the fish looking amazing my friend keep it from me Mikael!! And Merry Christmas to you my friend!
thanks Mikael
Yippee! Pancho now has many new friends 😃 Get a flowerhorn...
flowerhorn would be great!!!
OK I didn't realise you lived so close to me as that's my local fish shop. Grate guys
Hey love your videos,And I love fish
You are spoiling your Axolotl,😁. Mine even caught Denio and Mino didn't have a chance. I bet you got it by now... Some type of fish pick gills an tale of Axolotl actually.
I just started my own channel because I got inspired by u
Your tanks are amazing
Wathching you from Montreal!🇨🇦
With the button ; at 15.06 we see him eating a fish and at 15.55 we see a piece of fin sticking out of his mouth x) But he is a magnificent paludarium
It's hilarious that at that moment he's talking about how the axolotl NeVeR gOeS aFtEr ThE fIsH. The tank is amazing though. Just not good for an axolotl.
I mean isn't it funny how you can see the fish "dissapear" at 15:05 while the axelotl was eating a 'plant' 5 seconds later, which didn't look like a fin at all. Great content tho and it's not hate. it's nature. The axelotl wouldn't be able to eat all the fish since they would be way to quick when they get used to the tank.
This will be my hobby some day
You mean there are folks who don't buckle their fish and shrimp up for the ride from the store to the house? 😂
👍💕👍
Amazing tanks👌
You should quarantine the fish before adding them up.
:>
I only have 5 danios (2 long fin zebra, 1 zebra, 2 leopard) living with another 11 rosy barbs, they are so agile and fun to watch. I especially like leopard danio’s pattern, they look like mini trouts or something, so cute.
Mine very much ate the minnows in his tank. Seeing these danios, I may try them next.
Love'n the Danios Mate 🍃👌 definately think pancho munched on one there too 😳😂
i would agree but she always bites plants even when a bloodworm is right in her face lol.
@@MDFishTanks ha ha ,, definately saw a tail sticking out of her gob 😜🤭 i have 10 axolotl's i know that (i got a fish in my mouth face .lol
Just watch the axolotl's gills as sometime little fish can nip at them & get stuck , if you ever need to know anything im happy to help, here or over on insta 🍃✌
Seriously love this tank 😁
Anoyher great video. the boys are so cute and the reactions amazing.. my children also love seeing that... greetings
Thank you
