Hi MD I have watched all your videos and you have inspired me to create my own setup after Christmas just to say thank you and a hello to you and fish shop matt
Matt I’d love for you to start doing small 15 minute informative videos on different fish species. Get a small tank, sit on the couch and go over the species. Size, colors, temperament, show clips of natural habitats, tank mates, regions of origin, preferred foods, equipment suggestions etc. MD can do the same with the plants and hardscape.
This is one of my favorite tanks you’ve done! The focus on the reds, and the brownish red of the wood. The way the botanicals make the sand blend in. The angel fish with their pops of red. 10/10 keep up the incredible work!
Same! I cracked up and my husband wanted to know what was so funny, showed him, it went right over his head... Made me laugh more! I did explain it and he chuckled though. 😂
I think a "Western Scape" would be a cool idea for something different. Like use a bunch of red rocks to create ledges and valleys, lots of yellow sand, small sticks for "tumbleweed", and small sprigs of buce, etc. for foliage. Think like you would make a lizard terrarium but underwater!
Really loving this new "woody" build guys! Absolutely love the Red Devil Angels, and Cardinals together, as well. The Red Devil Angels are my favorite type of angel. The cardinals look so good with the whole 'red' setup too. Great job, guys! I also wanted to mention that you guys seem to have struck a great balance together as well. From Matt's days still at Maidenhead, and your first interactions, till now, I see such a great and comfortable blending together, as friends and co workers. I think it makes the channel so much more entertaining (not that it wasn't entertaining before, for sure, because it deffinately was!) But maybe more fun to see the bouncing of ideas, and all, off of each other, and the whole vibe, is wonderful. Anyhow, I hope you know what I am trying to say? You two are just so much fun to watch and listen too, I mean. 🙂
This tank and the one next to it may be my favorite of any tank I’ve seen from you guys. The contrast between them is amazing. The combo looks amazing. Love the talk through of the design philosophy too.
re: nobody caring about ISO / "camera people" say just use Auto i really appreciate MD's constant attention to shot clarity and appeal. it seems to reflect the *visual appeal* that clearly motivates him in the hobby generally. i have a visual arts background with photography experience. i wouldn't say the people suggesting Auto represent "camera people", Auto is a choice to not choose, a compromise between your actual subject/intent and everything else. they are average consumers that think of a camera as producing documents, which works for most people's personal use cases. but its distinct from photography and cinematography intended as subjective craft that relays perspective, not document. professionals generally fall in this category. the professional reason to use Auto might be like, journalists than need to shoot on the fly and can't predict the conditions. even strictly non-art people like forensics guys or action shots like sports photography will be dialing in the right settings for the subject ahead of time usually. if you have control of the shot, take control of the shot. i'm currently not active in the hobby and was only looking into the expense of it, initially seeking info was why i checked out several channels, to get a sense of what's necessary to really do it right. many channels have that info for many styles of tank, i quickly had my answers about hardware cost of a worthwhile system. it was the colours + contrast on this channel approximating the in-person feel, the character of the species, the impact in a room, that locked me in to what i want to do if im ever in a position to. that was a couple months ago i think. while i enjoy info about species & ecosystems broadly, what *keeps* me watching is mostly the flow of the process and the visual appeal of the end result. whether its the dark and light areas of established tanks to be trimmed or the choice of scatter gravel against sand and wood, dialed ISO is crucial to understanding the decision making on-screen. it can be hard to "teach" to people that don't consciously appreciate it. keyword consciously. pretty clear MD's grasp mostly comes from knowing what he likes. visual craft is always enjoyable to watch from people who are personally driven to create what they want to see. i appreciate that MD chases what appeals to him even if truly nobody notices. just wanted to express that i notice!
I really enjoy when you show the final results a few weeks after you set it up. That’s when the fish are confident and comfortable and the water is clear. Good work!! ❤
And look, the Cardinals have discovered the Angel fish won't be eating them... for awhile! This video, the unusual build AND the two of you made an evening of pure entertainment. Thanks!
I stumbled upon your channel a few days ago. I really love it!!! Now I'm inspired to pull out my old fish tanks and have a serious go at live plants. You two were very informative and terribly funny.
Over 30 years ago! I had a 120"x28"x36" 19mm(double Base) display tank and a 108"x20"x24" 10mm reservoir built on site at home by Seabray.... Took about 40 tubes of silicone sealant. I installed a Sanders Helgoland skimmer and a TMC centralised filtration system myself in the next room. I agree that too many people in the wrong place is more of a hindrance, You guys did superbly well.
One of the best tanks that you have made until now, its really good to watch the channel progress, always learning new things with you and matt. Greetings from Portugal 🤝🏽
I love you guys on as a duo!! you guys already sound like life long friends or a married couple the way you guys interact lol and I LOVE IT!!! Thank you for content.
Hi guys, The difference with over watering Monstera in a pot is that plants like Monstera and other Philodendron types adjust their roots. Epipremnum (porthos) Monstera, scindapsus convert their roots to water roots. When they do you can see all the fine hair roots that actually drink the water. In soil these roots are mutch thicker. In soil thy rot away with to mutch water. Becouse they don't have time to convert.
MD, get some Oracal 631 vinyl for the back of the tanks. It's made for temp use, but will last for years in your application, then remove fairly easily. Way easier than paint.
I absolutely love this tank, the plants along the top make it. I hope you have better luck with the red angels than I did. They are the only angels that have ever died on me,
I love the colors! I fully, fully support the addition of cardinals - they are absolutely perfect in the first place, and they're breathtaking here! About the monstera growing in pots and being overwatered vs growing in aquarium water--the difference is the overwatered, potted plant dies when wet soil smothers the roots so that they can't get enough oxygen. In an aquarium, the roots aren't hampered and can get all the oxygen they need. Monstera are epiphytes btw
WOW, this is absolutely fantastic! Thank you so much for shearing this. A science tip, though: plants do not use oxygen from the water during night in a way that it would cause trouble to animals. Plants do need oxygen but they only use small amount of it stored inside their cells after photosynthesis. I actually checked this from the professor of botany at the University of Helsinki :) So in case you have oxygen issues in the tank, look reasons elsewhere than plants.
Yeah that's gorgeous. The variations of red hues are just spot on man. Any chance of a budget video? One where you do a small scape on what's a realistic (to those of us that aren't on a UA-camrs budget haha) budget? Nothing over the top just a nice small tank set up. Keep it up man love the videos
Looking great! Thank you for another wonderful video. PS You and Matt make me laugh, especially the banter about dusty sand, both of you make clouds of dust!
🇦🇺 Full disclosure; i don't own any fish, I'll probably never own any fish, the only tanks i have are terrariums. So why do I watch you two? The way you two banter and feed off each other remind me of my late father and my uncle, his youngest brother. When they got together they were so funny, and you two are the same. The reason plants die from overwatering but are fine in the tank is keeping soil constantly wet depletes the oxygen and the plant suffocates. Clean water, clean roots... hydroponics anyone? I do thoroughly enjoy the knowledge, expertise and artistic creativity you bring. I love watching the tanks come together and they always look stunning
That came out really beautiful with all the wood, and those angels look so amazing in it! I've just ordered a decent number of new fish for my main tank, among which some angels which they call Koi; they're pretty similar to these Red Devils but the gold parts are more, well, gold 😁 I can't wait to see how this tank will develop and how many more plants are going to go into it because you just can't help yourself, MD, and you know it 😂
Looks awesome! My fav so far! Reminds me of the creek where I grew up, there was a log jam that looks a lot like your tank! It was great for fishing , they loved hiding among the roots.
Hello MD and Mat good job but have you thought about some differ fish I think Rummy nose tetras will be good because of the orange of the Red devels and they will get verly large so there will be no problems for a long wile
Nice tank. I like how the color of the cardinal tetras and the red devils go ultra well with the colors of the scape itself. I'm tryin' to do something similar visually with harlequin rasboras and bettas, but I need more practice.
How you and Matt were talking at the end of the video reminds me on how me and my mate use to sit talking around my 1st 2ft tank when we were 13/14 the nights gradually got all longer when we turned 18 and beers got involved 🤣😜
You two make me laugh! 😂 Loving the juxtaposition of the green monstera and then suddenly all that wood and redness, works amazingly Side note I had this issue with the biofilm with one of my little tanks, soon as I sorted a bubbler, it was all good
brilliant tank... I love it. and excellent choice of fish. I was thinking a red lily would be really nice in there. and then you done it 😆. definitely one of your best 👌

Can you please make a crayfish tank please?🙏🙏
Hi MD I have watched all your videos and you have inspired me to create my own setup after Christmas just to say thank you and a hello to you and fish shop matt
Amazing tank, guys, congratulations! You are forgiven! The "black water" tank is back!
Jes it did.I love it but it can use some Rummy nose tetras as some differ fish
"Can't wait to experiment with more big wood"!!!😂😂😂
Great build!!!
Listen, bringing in Fish Shop Matt was the most significant move in the history of UA-cam. Bravo.
Matt I’d love for you to start doing small 15 minute informative videos on different fish species. Get a small tank, sit on the couch and go over the species. Size, colors, temperament, show clips of natural habitats, tank mates, regions of origin, preferred foods, equipment suggestions etc. MD can do the same with the plants and hardscape.
This!!!
Doesn't Matt already do a Fish Files series like this on his own channel?
He does... On his own channel!...
He does I just figured having access to all of the tanks and new fish wall couldn’t hurt.
I'd be bored to death listening to MD talk about hardscape and where it's from 😆
This is one of my favorite tanks you’ve done! The focus on the reds, and the brownish red of the wood. The way the botanicals make the sand blend in. The angel fish with their pops of red. 10/10 keep up the incredible work!
Wow! Gorgeous!
This conversational content is so great. The tank is amazing and I am loving the new experimental dynamics that’s going on now. Just outstanding!! ❤
MD: “… with this monstrosity out the top.” Matt: “no, its monstera.” 🤣🤣🤣 that might be the first time I have laughed that hard.
Timelapse?
You need to get out more
Same that needs to be the shore for this video
Same!
I cracked up and my husband wanted to know what was so funny, showed him, it went right over his head...
Made me laugh more! I did explain it and he chuckled though. 😂
Monsterrarosity would have been perfect
Matt’s laugh at the end “experiment with big wood”, was the perfect way to end this video off lmao. Well done guys, the tank looks amazing
Agreed, still laughing.
The only thing that could make me happier is if you put out more videos. I can't get enough of you guys creating together ❤️
Finally! Sunday wouldn’t be the same without an MD aquascape 👍🤛
You guys should start an podcast where you guys chill and sit in front of a tank and talk about the fish, tank and plants
Yes I loved this
Yes!
OMG those Angel Fish are stunning !!! and I love how they all look a little different, so that you can tell them apart from one-another. 😍🥰😍
I think a "Western Scape" would be a cool idea for something different. Like use a bunch of red rocks to create ledges and valleys, lots of yellow sand, small sticks for "tumbleweed", and small sprigs of buce, etc. for foliage. Think like you would make a lizard terrarium but underwater!
This is such a beautiful tank. The fish really suit the hardscape and the plants. Nice work.
Creating living art is so cool. Great to see you two trouble-shooting experiments!
The humor in this video is stellar
Really loving this new "woody" build guys! Absolutely love the Red Devil Angels, and Cardinals together, as well. The Red Devil Angels are my favorite type of angel. The cardinals look so good with the whole 'red' setup too. Great job, guys! I also wanted to mention that you guys seem to have struck a great balance together as well.

You two are just so much fun to watch and listen too, I mean. 🙂
I really love this tank. Even though it’s full of wood it’s not too much and because there’s less plants in it, it shows the fish off much better. 👍🏼
23:10 is such old married couple bickering energy and i love it
The Angelfish are loving it, exploring all the nooks and crannies. It suits them too, they blend right in.
This tank and the one next to it may be my favorite of any tank I’ve seen from you guys. The contrast between them is amazing. The combo looks amazing. Love the talk through of the design philosophy too.
Wowza!
This aquarium scape with the fish looks absolutely breathtaking, great job guys!!
I love this tank! One of my favourites I think. The colours, the wood, the choice of fish, it all comes together beautifully
re: nobody caring about ISO / "camera people" say just use Auto
i really appreciate MD's constant attention to shot clarity and appeal.
it seems to reflect the *visual appeal* that clearly motivates him in the hobby generally.
i have a visual arts background with photography experience.
i wouldn't say the people suggesting Auto represent "camera people",
Auto is a choice to not choose, a compromise between your actual subject/intent and everything else.
they are average consumers that think of a camera as producing documents, which works for most people's personal use cases.
but its distinct from photography and cinematography intended as subjective craft that relays perspective, not document.
professionals generally fall in this category.
the professional reason to use Auto might be like, journalists than need to shoot on the fly and can't predict the conditions.
even strictly non-art people like forensics guys or action shots like sports photography will be dialing in the right settings for the subject ahead of time usually.
if you have control of the shot, take control of the shot.
i'm currently not active in the hobby and was only looking into the expense of it,
initially seeking info was why i checked out several channels, to get a sense of what's necessary to really do it right.
many channels have that info for many styles of tank, i quickly had my answers about hardware cost of a worthwhile system.
it was the colours + contrast on this channel approximating the in-person feel, the character of the species, the impact in a room,
that locked me in to what i want to do if im ever in a position to.
that was a couple months ago i think.
while i enjoy info about species & ecosystems broadly,
what *keeps* me watching is mostly the flow of the process and the visual appeal of the end result.
whether its the dark and light areas of established tanks to be trimmed or the choice of scatter gravel against sand and wood,
dialed ISO is crucial to understanding the decision making on-screen.
it can be hard to "teach" to people that don't consciously appreciate it. keyword consciously.
pretty clear MD's grasp mostly comes from knowing what he likes.
visual craft is always enjoyable to watch from people who are personally driven to create what they want to see.
i appreciate that MD chases what appeals to him even if truly nobody notices.
just wanted to express that i notice!
Very cool, MD. I hope the water stays clear.
it has. So good!
Lmao reading this sounded like a threat
@@brandonthegrey No threat. lol Wood has a tendency to release tannins, which can make aquarium water turn brown - like tea.
Professor Matt- apedia saves the day!!
Well done fella…
Gorgeous tank! And thanks so much for sharing what happened with the fish and the oxygenating fix!
I love this tank! You did a great job making it look natural and the Angels are fantastic. Fun video, thank you.
I really enjoy when you show the final results a few weeks after you set it up. That’s when the fish are confident and comfortable and the water is clear. Good work!! ❤
MD's the type of boss that would ask why you're leaving at 4.55pm. Matt's the type of boss that doesn't even realise you weren't in all day.
Another gorgeous job well done!! I don't think there is anything you two can't do!!!! Just lovely!!! I love it!!!!😊😊😊
really glad when you added the black background. The entire tank looks phenom but the depth is really added with that dark background.
And look, the Cardinals have discovered the Angel fish won't be eating them... for awhile!
This video, the unusual build AND the two of you made an evening of pure entertainment. Thanks!
i love the attention to detail in the lighting in the videos
I absolutely love all red planted tanks. They look almost alien.
Lovely tank! Thank you for giving all the neons a beautiful home!
I stumbled upon your channel a few days ago. I really love it!!! Now I'm inspired to pull out my old fish tanks and have a serious go at live plants. You two were very informative and terribly funny.
Over 30 years ago!
I had a 120"x28"x36" 19mm(double Base) display tank and a 108"x20"x24" 10mm reservoir built on site at home by Seabray.... Took about 40 tubes of silicone sealant.
I installed a Sanders Helgoland skimmer and a TMC centralised filtration system myself in the next room.
I agree that too many people in the wrong place is more of a hindrance, You guys did superbly well.
You two are so great together! Awesome wood and red tank!! Gina
MD and Matt, this tank is absolutely gorgeous! Definitely my favorite of all 😍
One of the best tanks that you have made until now, its really good to watch the channel progress, always learning new things with you and matt.
Greetings from Portugal 🤝🏽
Love this tank. Works so well with just the two species of fish(ignoring the never-to-be-seen Bristlenoses).
One of your best, it's a very different look
Great. I can't wait to see how it develops.
Greetings from Germany.
I’m jealous of all your awesome pieces of driftwood!
I love you guys on as a duo!! you guys already sound like life long friends or a married couple the way you guys interact lol and I LOVE IT!!! Thank you for content.
Hi guys,
The difference with over watering Monstera in a pot is that plants like Monstera and other Philodendron types adjust their roots. Epipremnum (porthos) Monstera, scindapsus convert their roots to water roots. When they do you can see all the fine hair roots that actually drink the water. In soil these roots are mutch thicker. In soil thy rot away with to mutch water. Becouse they don't have time to convert.
Definitely saving this for later down the line. Love very natural looking scapes like this
Love this tank. I vote for using more loaches 🥰
And show the loaches in the Archer tank. And more Archers spit feeding 😍
MD, get some Oracal 631 vinyl for the back of the tanks. It's made for temp use, but will last for years in your application, then remove fairly easily. Way easier than paint.
I absolutely love this tank, the plants along the top make it.
I hope you have better luck with the red angels than I did. They are the only angels that have ever died on me,
That is a stunning tank!!
45:38 already eggs on the wood behind the angels
This tank is absolutely amazing!
This is definitely my favorite tank on this channel
I love the colors! I fully, fully support the addition of cardinals - they are absolutely perfect in the first place, and they're breathtaking here!
About the monstera growing in pots and being overwatered vs growing in aquarium water--the difference is the overwatered, potted plant dies when wet soil smothers the roots so that they can't get enough oxygen. In an aquarium, the roots aren't hampered and can get all the oxygen they need. Monstera are epiphytes btw

I actually checked this from the professor of botany at the University of Helsinki :) So in case you have oxygen issues in the tank, look reasons elsewhere than plants.
This is an absolute winner of a tank.
Absolutely stunning. Beautiful!
Seeing them in the tank… these are the first angelfish that I actually like! I usually find them rather boring. Great job! 👍
So much better, with the black background! Cool tank build.
I hate running out of sand... it's worse than running out of snacks.
And yes, the finished product looks truly amazing!!! great job boys!!
You are both so talented! The tanks are beautifully done. Fascinating to watch. Regards from New York.
you and your tanks never fail to entertain! keep it up mat!
This aquascape tells a story. It's like a tiny underwater world
Yeah that's gorgeous. The variations of red hues are just spot on man.
Any chance of a budget video? One where you do a small scape on what's a realistic (to those of us that aren't on a UA-camrs budget haha) budget? Nothing over the top just a nice small tank set up.
Keep it up man love the videos
Saw title and sat down with my coffee. Love the Angelfish selection. Keep doing Angelfish content! Ya'll get thumbs up before video even starts!
Looking great! Thank you for another wonderful video. PS You and Matt make me laugh, especially the banter about dusty sand, both of you make clouds of dust!
Beautiful tank guy's , like the use of the big pieces of wood and rock's .
Amazing yet again! So different from anything I've seen before! ❤
🇦🇺 Full disclosure; i don't own any fish, I'll probably never own any fish, the only tanks i have are terrariums. So why do I watch you two? The way you two banter and feed off each other remind me of my late father and my uncle, his youngest brother. When they got together they were so funny, and you two are the same.

Absolutely gorgeous set up guys!!! ❤
Looks awesome! My fav so far! Reminds me of the creek where I grew up, there was a log jam that looks a lot like your tank! It was great for fishing , they loved hiding among the roots.
That "fungus" is biofilm and is completely normal when setting wood up in a tank. It can clear up on its own, or fish can kind of munch on it.
WOW you’ve done it again,, what an amazing build! 🎉❤
Hello MD and Mat good job but have you thought about some differ fish I think Rummy nose tetras will be good because of the orange of the Red devels and they will get verly large so there will be no problems for a long wile
Wow wow wow that tank looks absolutely incredible ❤
Great big wood experiment guys. Love the choices for wood, plants and my favorite fish. You've out done yourselves...
Best build so far, IMO. Really enjoy the pair of you bouncihg ideas off each other.
Nice tank. I like how the color of the cardinal tetras and the red devils go ultra well with the colors of the scape itself. I'm tryin' to do something similar visually with harlequin rasboras and bettas, but I need more practice.
Love this setup! And the video is fantastic and hilarious.
I love this one, so natural ❤
How you and Matt were talking at the end of the video reminds me on how me and my mate use to sit talking around my 1st 2ft tank when we were 13/14 the nights gradually got all longer when we turned 18 and beers got involved 🤣😜
One of my favs so far, at least until the next one lol Job well done!
Absolutely gorgeus! I love this ❤
Another beautiful tank from the md team 💪🏼💪🏼
Absolute favourite build .... Good job guys
We do care about ISO :-) My favorite sand is Caribbean Maine's natural-looking sand and ground up Seriyu stone. Keep up the great work!
Love this one, absolutely stunning.

Stop the video at 0:38 and sees Matt's face brilliant 😂😂 Monstera it is MD

You two make me laugh! 😂
Loving the juxtaposition of the green monstera and then suddenly all that wood and redness, works amazingly
Side note I had this issue with the biofilm with one of my little tanks, soon as I sorted a bubbler, it was all good
brilliant tank... I love it. and excellent choice of fish. I was thinking a red lily would be really nice in there. and then you done it 😆. definitely one of your best 👌
I’m jealous of the hardscape budget on this one! 😂 😯
My wife would kill me spending my paycheck on all that wood 😂
Love the hard scape 😊
Really enjoyed this one guys
And love the channel
