Is it fine to leave co2 systems on overnight or should they be turned off?
@@guessingwsly6018 depends on the system. Pressurised co2 need to be shut of with a timed solenoid valve. yeast systems apparently don't produce enough to cause problems so I've heard they can be left on overnight. To be honest, it all depends on how much you are dissolving in the water.
@@MDFishTanks Ahh ok ok, that makes sense when you put it that way. Thank you for the information. Much appreciated
Archer tank needs GIANT DANIOS!😂
goes together like peanut butter and jelly.
Beautiful.Father fish just gave you a shout out in his latest video saying you are an artist and he loves your work.High praise richly deserved.
Oh that's very nice of him. I'll check it out.
Would love to see an 8ft Father Fish tank
@@DashDrones yeah I just commented on his video. We pretty much do the same thing, lots of nutrients capped by sand which has been happening in the hobby for many many decades. I just don't pull it to the front of the tank as I feel it ruins the aesthetic and creates a better under water view illusion, but that's just my take.
@@MDFishTankshi md I love 💕 all your vids I have learnt a lot from you. I have 2 large fully planted tanks I have a 220 litre tank with 2 fantails male and female 2 weather loaches females and 8 peppered corys 4 Male 4 female. And my other tank is 150 litre with 3 bristle nose plecos 2 long fin females 1 is albino and 1 is black with white markings and 1 Male black and white and 1 dwarf sailfin fire pleco and around 40/45 long fin bristle nose pleco babies.and both my tanks have live plants I have vallis javafern amazon sword elodea crytocoryn and other plants which I can’t remember the name of my tanks have been running for 3 years now and in the beginning I had fake plants and artificial decorations and didn’t know anything about fish or aquascaping but I have learnt a lot and now I don’t use anything artificial in my tanks and I can see my fish are happier and that makes me happy. I love my animals and thankyou to your vids I have learnt a lot and I have watched all of your vids. Love 💖 from London uk 🇬🇧🐡🐠🐟🦐❤👍🏻🌿🌱🐚🎍🚿
Great work, MD! And it's absolutely wonderful to watch your dreams come to life. ...can't wait to see the fish in it.
One thing...won't you wipe those annoying bubbles off the front glass? Please!? LOL
PS, some good stretches of your back, hips and legs before you start this work may help both joints and muscles!
Serpa Design, MD Aquariums, AND DR. Plants all dropping exactly at the same time! Today is a good day!😍
3 of the best.
Who is DR? Thanks.
@@Candy-ji1sr The Master!
Is that Father Fish! @@IndoorEcosystem
Yup and George Farmer
Hands down consistently the best fish content on UA-cam. Your incredible work ethic combined with your skill and enthusiasm is inspirational. As someone who's currently trying to build a business doing what I love in a completely different field to this, you're genuinely an inspiration on many levels. Keep being you, mate.
In a tank, eight feet of green, / A sight so lush, rarely seen. / Aquatic love, spread so wide, / In glass walls, it does reside. / A verdant dream, serene, serene.
That's beautiful!
Agree! Don’t fill in all the gaps.
The little caves and roots are gorgeous.
Another masterpiece. Well done. I'm a marine aquarist, but I never miss a never episode. Time to start again with a freshwater tank. Have you ever thought about a brakish Mudskipper and Mangrove tank?
"Non-Perfecty" "Too takey over" ... LoL Someone who speaks my language! Great set up! Love your videos!
If you only knew your impact on my hobby! I started with 0 tanks when I started watching your videos. I now have 13 HEAVILY planted tanks from 5 gallons to 95! I appreciate your work more than you would ever know 🎉
Haha. That's awesome. 🤙
I watched this episode on my big screen TV! My husband and I enjoyed it so much!
awesome Carole. You both into tanks then?
He had a tank when we met, when I got into the hobby he helped me since he had more experience with the mechanics than me. We are celebrating our 35th anniversary this weekend!
Beautiful 🎉@@carolebraswell982
Awesome, as always, MD! You may wanna do some stretching before the next segment 😉 loving this build 🥰
😂 i think it was more of the constant impact of jumping down rather than stepping off lol.
@@MDFishTanksI was wondering if you were always stretching down to plant on the same side - that would hurt one side and not the other.
Leaving the roots exposed was pretty cool, way to go.
Shoutout from South Africa. Glad I got here early on this one!
Been watching you for a few years now MD and you inspired me so much I am on my third tank. All planted up and doing so well with all your sound advice xx keep up the great content xxx
Really glad you are taking the time to show so much of this massive tank set-up. Cant wait to see finished product
Tank looks amazing. When you told to put plants under the open spots in the wood. I was like nooooo that’s perfect for fish. 1 second later, i don’t put plants there it’s perfect for fish 😅
Really love this channel.
Oh my God! It looks so good! Thank you for bringing us along on your journey and sharing your dream with us
I love the scape! Beautiful symmetry between the islands and great use of live plants (as always). You knocked it out of the park again MD😃
Great video and love the tank. I bet you can’t wait to go fish shopping for it. Not sure if you are in similar area however have you ever visited Lynwood Aquatics in Chessington?
Such an old school aquarium shop and he opened it in 1970’s but I think with the internet it’s tough. It’s like a treasure trove of aquarium stuff!
I reckon an episode from MD and interviewing the owner would make a great video as he has so much knowledge. His motto is the fish come first and the customers second 😂 😁
Looks so awesome MD. Loving the skills. I can see you are so excited to finally have this tank.
It looks fantastic MD! I can’t wait to see what fish you put in. Great video! Thank you.
amazing planting! great work taking form already, so beautiful!!! can’t wait to see you adding fish
That is a life-size jungle!! It's beautiful, which I knew it would be. I hope you recover from the workout soon. Thank you for sharing your passion for aquascaping with us.
Looks amazing! One day I too will have a go at an 8ft tank...just need to convince the missus and buy a bigger house ;)
Ive been watching you for a few years now. I have my 55litre heavily planted tank. I did have a 4ft 330litre tank but i sold it unfortunately because it was too big for my livingroom and had no where else to put it. Im loving my tank a little slice of nature in my home. Ive been looking forward to this video 🌿🪴🍁
MD...."An Aquatic MASTERPIECE"
That is so gorgeous. I desperately wish I could afford to do things like this.
I love your excitement for setting up your dream tank! This tank is amazing!! So excited to watch the tank mature!
This is your EPIC BUILD MD!! Absolutely beautiful so far. What a show piece for your studio! 👍😊
It’s looking beautiful MD. Congrats!
These videos are so calming I love them
Just got to love ❤️ a huge tank build video and very much appreciate the time this project has took mate .. but it’s looking amazing
thanks mate
Looks fantastic so far MD. I'm looking forward to the next instalment.
The tank looks terrific!
Gorgeous tank, MD! You keep outdoing yourself!
Finally got my aquarium filters and all that and nearly suffered disaster today, so I’m glad to see some peaceful and competent aquarium stuff from MD! My aquarium journey will have to wait til I have a stronger stand, haha
Sounds scary. Take your time and "measure twice before the cut". Sturdy stand was half the planning for my large tank. Originally I thought about wooden stand, then I went with classic steel box design, 30x30 mm profiles with 3mm width, wood cover and thick planks underneath to distribute the weight over larger area of the floor.
Looking good! You’ve given me the motivation I needed for my own tank maintenance today so thank you!
This tank will be perfect ! 😍😍😍 I have this same dream. Greting from Poland ! 👋
Another great video. Love your frog shirt. Your kiddos must feel so special having their art featured ❤️
Big Fan MD... There are few who promise so many things and then they get change the plans without execution!!! U Sir, U are a Visionary!!
Its beautiful man. Well done!
This has to be one or if not the best tank you have ever done 👌 great work
Looking amazing as usual.
Thank you, MD.
Feels Awesome when these Guys Do their stuff in Such a Magical Way...
❤❤❤
Wow! Looks great! Thank you for sharing.
Looks incredible MD, bravo I am now eagerly waiting for the next ep 🤛
Loving it... Definitely not a one day build and fish in . Lifting the tank into place was a job on it's own. Landscaping and "Fishing - Up" is obviously a multitude of complications, which you're working through extremely well (or so it perceives lol) . :) Thumbs Up
I'm so glad this channel exist! You fish tanks are a amazing.
Seen you from the start and you have become such a great inspiration like George Farmer. Carry on!
Really been looking forward to this build!! Absolutely stunning scape.. this will definitely be my inspiration for my 4 or 5 foot build I am planning later this year… 😊
Really beautiful piece you have there❤❤❤
Even without the fish, the tank looks so beautiful with all the plants 🥹
It’s looking soooo amazing! Can’t wait to see it grow in and with fish added 😍
It's really looking nice the way it's coming together great job.
Looking good, stay healthy and keep up the good work 💪🏻
Next level, looks great already. Dense planting is the best way 🌱 🌱 👏 👏
Really nice as always MD. I look forward to see what fish gets added and also what contrast of fish colours you go for too. 😊
Newbie question but it would be cool to see a video explaining which plants you can plant directly on the hardscape like the ferns and which types require to be planted directly in the substrate.
That a great looking aquarium. Like the planting a lot.
Stunning so far!!! ❤❤ Looking forward to fishes!!!
Incredible, I say that a lot with your scapes but it’s just so true! You are a genius!
looks beautiful.
Ahh MD you have done it again 😀 you make it look so easy. This is looking amazing at such an early stage so its going to be insane once things grow in. You have the knack good sir.
Wow that looks amazing,taking shape now mate.roll on the next episode 💪💪💪
I enjoyed it so much!
Beautiful man and your tank canopy is super nice 👌💯🤘⚡️👍
My Saturday can start now..... ❤
Loving the videos md, always looking forward to watching them. Keen to see more saltwater too 😁
Another amazing masterpiece from MD
nice to see you getting back to the good videos
Eight foot of awesomeness! looking forward to you adding the fish.
Looking good MD
I never missed your videos. I like your tanks, they are all beautiful. I'm eagerly waiting for this giant tank to be finished up. Now its done, nicely done and great achievement. Wish i had one. I hope to see your new works soon.
some mammoth tasks here. worth the wait. as always great build, and a nice centre piece to the gallery :)
Awesome! It looks amazing! I just wish the video was longer.
Looks epic Md well done mate
You are the god of scapes bro!!
Love from Denmark!🤗🤗
Looking awesome!!!❤❤❤
Super excited for EP3
Looks stunning
Father Fish would be proud of this nutriment system!
I think its a lot less (in terms of depth) and more simple than his method but it's what I've done for a long time and works very well.
@@MDFishTanks Indeed your creations are amazing!
Right on time!
Looks so amazing 🤩
Love this series MD absolute dream for me
So gorgeous 👍🏻
Absolut amazing! A dream...👍
The red only tank with the Silvertips looks amazing!
