A lot of my favourite fish died whilst I was away in Texas. It was a fluke accident that has never happened whilst I have been in the studio...or any studio for that matter for the past 4 years! My wife was in charge but didn't know what to look out for and over the phone, I couldn't work out the problem.

Alga Lee :D:D
How unlucky can you get a fish die's and blocks the intake which cause's more deaths, don't be too hard on yourself MD.
What a fun episode, seeing you and Matt being normal people. Lol
always a terrible feeling even worse if you have no idea why. instead of having a filter you could just have a powerhead moving water so its still a no filter tank
CAN U LET ME KNOW WHAT ALL SPECIES OF FISH YOU HAVE IN YOUR RAINBOW TANK? (THE TANK WHERE U LOST YOUR FISH?) I SAW SOME BLUE SHIMMERY TETRA SIZE FISH IN THERE. THANK YOU!
''We don't need any more tanks'' - said no fish keeper ever.
I was thinking no more fish tanks when I had two ten gallon tanks now I have about ten tanks raging from ten gallon all the way up to twenty-nine gallon
That sounds like a t-shirt.
I have unboxed tanks in the garage I'm too scared to bring in the house...
I know right. Why can I never just be satisfied with what I've got. As soon as I get a new aquascape idea in my head, I have to start it.
No one ever says it seriously. I know I’ve said it many a times, but we keep making space and adding new tanks to our little apartment. 😂
Sorry about the losses you suffered MD. People would be surprised how attached on can become to their fish, but it does hurt when you loose them. I'm glad you posted so we can all learn from this. You'll come back stronger and now wiser.
I lost my first betta i owned as an adult due to a design flaw in his filter. I cried for a week off and on. Its crazy even to me how attached we get to them.
Luckily my gf is very understanding about my love for this hobby. 😅
Your Rainbow tank issue is common and is exactly why I run very coarse sponge pre filters on all of my intakes. I also always run an airstone somewhere in the tank. Placed discreetly of course. Sorry for your loss.
You could also easily drill a hole into the intake tube to prevent a vacuum
The oxygen thing happened to me too while I was away. Luckily no fish died but they were stressed. I quickly installed a sponge filter I got while I was away and problem solved. So sorry for your loss
I am so sorry for your losses. It is one of my biggest fears when I leave for 10 days every year. I now have a list of things I will be discussing with my mom(the one who takes care of my tanks when I'm gone.) Thanks for sharing all of this with us. Great learning experience for us all.
My sympathies for your fish loss. I've lost my male betta this week. Had him for 4 years😢 nice to see Matt and can't wait to see what you do next!
My male Betta passed a couple weeks ago. I had him for over two years. Have not been able to bring myself to go get a new one.
Sorry to hear about your rainbows. Just FYI, there’s an easy way to prevent losing your fish like this in the future. Just hook up an “old school” air pump with an air-stone as a backup when you go on a trip, they keep working even when the filter get clogged. (I have some vague recollection of a filter getting clogged when I went on vacation 30 or so years ago, and I’ve never trusted them to keep running when I was away since then.)
P.S. I made my fist visit to ADG here in Houston yesterday thanks to your videos! For some reason they weren’t showing up in my online searches for aquarium/fish stores here locally and your video helped me (but not my wallet) out tremendously!
I lost five neon tetras, two panda gara's and a betta during that hot week, I've been guessing the same thing - lack of oxygen, I added an air pump and air stone but that was after the fact. Sad week, but hopefully I've learned from it, my water tested fine too, I was pulling my hair out trying to figure things out.
betta don't die from oxygen deprivation in water column. they have labyrinth organ (allow them to breathe air) .They live in oxygen deprived water in the wild. there must be something else in play as well or just the time has come for him.
You have to leave the AC running in summer. That's what I do.
15:18 Are you crazy? Boring content??? ABBsolutely NOT! Love it!! The lovely old pair, shopping together, yapping about if stuff will fith in the car... It's PRIME content. (Sorry about your Rainbow-loss, looking forward to you getting them a new setup with proper swimming space and preferably you getting a few replacements)
I always have an air stone in my tanks. Even the ones that have expensive canister filters. The surface agitation is excellent and it’s a great backup in case the filter loses flow.
Suggest putting a strainer/cage on the inlet pipe of the filter, this will allow the filter to operate even with a dead fish stuck to it.
might just be me but audio seams alot cleaner and high def than normal. great video as always and sorry for your loss's
thanks. I removed the echo digitally. Not perfect but better in my opinion.
For your larger tanks, the inlet of the filter is a single point of failure.. maybe you can split the inlet into 2.. so that even if one is clogged, the other would keep things running
Hope you had a great time in Texas dude!
that was a WILD music choice in that first little bit. like reading the words "my fish are dead" to such a funky bop was a whole experience, not gonna lie
I feel for you. I have had similar things happen to a couple of my tanks, and each time it happened while I was out of town. It hurts, but we can't beat ourselves up over it. We mourn, we learn from it, we make "cautionary tale" videos about it to help others, and we move forward. That's what I appreciate about your channel. You share both your triumphs and your setbacks. Blessings to you.
Ty MD for being so transparent and showing the good and bad in the hobby, warts an all xxxx
I’m really sorry about your fish, that’s a bummer. I love a Fish Shop Matt cameo, he’s so cute. The footage of you two driving was hilarious. I loved the Houston videos but I’m glad you’re back home so we can see your stuff again. Great video, thank you!
Hiya. Sorry to hear about your fish loss. Lessons learned unfortunately. Luv watching your videos and how brilliantly your aquascaping is. Your so talented. Also chuckle when you and Matt get together, both like 2 schoolboys having fun. Lol.
I'm so sorry! It's nerve-wracking to go on vacation sometimes because I worry about these things happening. I always do substantial trimming before I leave and put in air stones with back-up pumps because I'm so paranoid.
It's the right approach - learn from what happened and move on - you are clearly a owner who cares about their fish and it's not neglect or mistreatment. It is a lesson in not overplanting (because filters break and got wonky even without dead fish blocking them). One other thought is maybe when travelling for a good length of time doing a good trim back on all the tanks - need it or not - so no over oxygenation and, more important, Kate can clearly see and describe potential issues throughout the tank when you check-in (like fish clogging intake). Cheers! Good Luck On New Build/Variation.
Beautiful tanks!! The greenery just pulls me in! Thank you for the inspiration
Thanks for the words of encouragement about moving forward. My Betta actually passed this morning due to Droopsy, and I was unsure how to move on with the tank. I'll keep pushing on, and learn from what happened.
I found over the years that a lot of shops believe that they do not have to deworm or quarantine fish when they get them from main suppliers because they believe that they do it..
And I found over the years that main suppliers do not deworm or use illness preparation because they believe that the shops use producrs to deworm them, quarantine them and use other products to treat any health issues....
I lost so many over the years that i quarantined.A biology friend professor friend looked into the ones who passed away in a short time period in quarantine and he did say that the stage of the disease the fishes had indicated 'months' of having been infected...
MD your emersed plants were blocking majority of the light to your submersed plants. The oxygen being produced was just diffusing straight into the air. The fish, plants, inverts and bacteria are constantly respiring, using up more oxygen in the water. If the rate of photosynthesis was less than the rate of oxygen consumption for too long, plus no surface agitation to increase gas exchange they sadly would definitely have suffocated.
Dude, that sucks. I had a similar issue many years ago. Now, in my larger or heavily planted tanks, I usually put a powerhead that comes on at night. It's set on a reverse timer to the CO2 system, pointed up at the surface. Works.
I do the same, but with an airpump coming on at night on a timer. Also heavily planted and not a lot of flow and the fish showed some signs of oxygen deprivation at night especially in warmer temps. Might be pretty easy to run an airpomp on a timer on the largest planted tanks in the studio when you are away MD, just as insurance for when a filter gets clogged.
Good morning sir thank you so much for your upload. I also want to thank you for showing the real stuff that goes on when you have fish tanks. Just think yours are so good it over-grew everything.
Appreciate this video! Coincidentally just a few days after seeing this my 10 gallon had the same thing happen (filter impeller jammed after power outage blip) I didn’t notice for a day or two but thanks to your video knew exactly what was going on when I saw all my fish gasping for air the next morning. (Its also densely planted) I was luckily able to get everything back on track without any losses; thank you so much for sharing some of the harder parts of fish keeping and staying real and vulnerable :)
Sad to hear that MD. I lost a beautiful Congo tetra a couple of weeks ago, he managed to somehow jump into my skimmer and get stuck down the pipe into the filter. Unfortunately I realised too late where he was and he died. Fully grown and beautiful colour. I was proper gutted. After 35 years of keeping fish, it still hurt badly...such a freak accident. Nothing worse than losing a nice healthy fish through sheer bad luck. I know how you feel. Onwards and upwards. These things are sent to test us. 👍
Very sad for the loss but as you say there is something that can always be learnt. My take is that the inlet to the filter seems to be more good looking than functional; thinking about the standard Oase one, it's big with a lot of surface to absorb water and probably would have been able to sustain an efficient water flow even if partially blocked.
Always nice to see Matt!
Sorry for your loss. I loved that tank. I’ve had that happen where a fish blocked the intake. Not sure if it got caught and died or if it died and got sucked in. I would cover the intake with a prefilter since the plants seem to hide it.
Sorry for your loss.
iv had a few of my fish pass on me and its NEVER easy. they are my babies. you have my condolences and I hope you get new rainbows that make you happy and remind you of good memories of your past ones.
Sorry for your loss, great attitude about it. You do have to learn from it.
Enjoyed your vids from HTown, my hometown, they were really great. Thanks sharing our city to your audience…❤❤❤
Oh man. That's my nightmare. That's partly why i run sponge filters in all my tanks as filter backups. 😭
That's heavy. I'm very sorry. Just today I've lost 5 harlequin rasboras (the entire school) and 4 neon tetras in two separate starter tanks very suddenly. I have no clue why. Everything thrived for a few solid days and the test numbers were OK even as the fish were dying off. One theory is "PetSmart" syndrome. No mum and pop stores in my area.
I love the look in these tanks. The rockwork is quite different, and it looks amazing 👏🏻
You have way too many tanks to properly maintain on your own especially if you're away for a week. Even if those fish didn't die the swimming space was woefully inadequate.
I’m sorry, that sucks 💚
Recently I lost all six of the Congo tetras I had in my 30 gallon tank and was devastated. The day prior I had done a water change and I'm pretty sure the problem was just something with the filter, though I couldn't be entirely sure. I was absolutely devastated, I love them like my other pets, and felt so guilty. Truly it unfortuntely sometimes happens and there's no use beating ourselves up for it considering there's nothing that can be done after the fact rather than learn and do better in the future. Now have a thriving 75 gallon community tank without any (knock on wood) losses over the past couple of months since it started. I'm sorry for your loss, please don't let it destroy you and know you're not alone!
So sorry for your loss :( It's always hard to see fishes we care so much for pass away.
I lost my beloved plakat betta a few weeks ago. He was my favourite fish and I understand how you feel as I feel the same. Mine got constipated out of the blue, even though he eats high quality pellets and frozen foods. I put him in a hospital tank and got him frozen daphnia. He hate a bit of it, then I fasted him for a few days. Unfortunately on day 4 he started to pinecone and become lethargic. He passed away the next day. I think I know why since I keep finding baby bladder snails. I knew I had some as I would pick the adults and eggs whenever I found them, but I never found babies. With the betta gone, after a week the tank had lots of babies. Which makes me think he was eating them and had some kind of blockage. I got a few assassins snails (15 gallons) to help me keep on top of things. His harlequin rasboras buddies were fine and still are. They are the oldest fishes that I have. I since got another betta (half-moon) and as beautiful as he is, it's not the same. My plakat was super active, swimming all day in his tank and was very inquisitive. The new guy is very shy and laid back, he enjoys lunging in the plants all day. I'm sure that in time, he will learn to recognize and trust me. I wish I had been able to save m plakat :(
To brighten things a little big, my otocinclus had babies in two different tanks. That's quite the achievement!
Shame of your fish! You have some very cool tanks, would love one like that!
Nice car, glad you are back. We missed the studio and you and Matt together.
im v new and lost some fish recently and it is really disheartening! all the checks were fine so, im not sure what happened but. thanks for sharing the hard parts of the hobby too
Always nice to see Matt!. I’m sorry, that sucks .
A real bummer to hear that MD. :( 2 or 3 months ago my cats managed to turn off my surge protector & I woke up to a bunch of dead fish because my air stones were off and my surface plants were able to block the entire surface. Just like you and what I have read from a few comments, it was my biggest fish that died with the exception of my weather loach. If I would have been gone a week, my whole tank would have been dead!
Hi MD! I had the exact same thing happen to my community tank with the Oxygen. My filter failed and at night the oxygen got too low and I lost a tetra and everyone else was up top trying to get air.
I've since added an airstone that's on a timer to run at night just in case. If you want a backup for any future oxygen failures this could help you.
So sorry for your rainbow fish loss, and I had a similar thing happen while I was away with one of my tanks, no flow and top covered with floating plants.
Oh, tut mir leid mit deinen Regenbogenfischen. Bevor man in Urlaub fährt, sollte man immer seine Pflanzen kürzen und die Gerätschaften kontrollieren, Filter, CO2, etc. Des Weiteren brauchen Regenbogenfische ausreichend Schwimmraum, daher solltest du in diesem Aquarium öfter mal einen Pflanzenschnitt durchführen! 😉
I too am a rainbow fish nerd MD. See if Matt can order you some Kali Tawa Rainbows. Mine are gorgeous and by far my favourites!
Boesemani rainbows are my favourite darlings as well, I'm gutted for your loss. I lost a couple earlier as well.
I suggest you to get some friends for that lone Boesemani rainbow. He needs atleast 2-3 more to feel happy again..
Maybe rescape a bigger tank for them later on...
I’m going to the Keystone Klash next weekend (fish convention) and now I’m all nervous about leaving my fish. My Dad is old and doesn’t see well , so I don’t have him do anything . It’s only a few days so they can go without food . Sorry about your Rainbows . They’re my favorites too . Been planning on setting one up for the past year . Fingers crossed ! .
@@awilderireland thats what I did ! Airstones all the way !! Tanks aren’t that big so don’t need power head .
I have an air pump with battery backup and an air stone in all of my tanks. I don't particularly like bubbles in my tanks but it is a fish lifesaver.
I've had it happen, always have a type of filter over the intake. Im sorry for you, they were my favourite fish of your also.
All you need for the no filter - acara tank is a powerhead for flow and surface agitation! For sure no filter needed!
Microphone is been dead since 😂 you came across the pond!
And visit Tanner Serpa next time, Sir! Darn it! 😎🙏🏽
I love Matt
MD: do you think I need another fish tank?
guy who sells the fish tanks: no... buuuuuut...
btw MD, if you're looking for more tank ideas have you ever seen any of the non-splendens species of Bettas? they havent been bred to be "Fighting Fish" so they still have the personalities of a small Indonesian Gourami. Dan's Fish posted an Oddballs tour the other day that had a tank of Betta Simorum and they are gorgeous!
sorry for ur fish loss bro, the audio was a bit awkward especially when matt joined, but aside from that, sad but awesome video as usual... cheers mate
Great content as always MD! The audio has seemed off the last two vids! Almost like you’re dubbing it! The studio looks amazing and always love the Matt collabs!
yeah the audio totally sounds strange, i was just searching the comments to see someone else mention it. it sounds like there’s a voice filter on it
the last few have been like that, wondering if he has a new mic setup. the tone of it is weird, thought it was just me
@@3fiddy777 yeah, hope he fixes it cause it’s distracting haha I’d still watch though!
@@darrenderousse4804 same! i love the content so i will always watch but for some reason the new audio tone bothers my ears lol
I thought the driver was filming! I was freaking out but then I remembered... British 😅
So sad to hear about the rainbow fish, they had quite fun chasing you around. With that in mind, maybe you can build a scape with swimming room for the new ones. Your builds have some interesting 'tracks' for them to swim around in. Looking forward to that video!
MD Fish Tanks. You have the best looking aquariums I have ever seen, its why I subbed and watch you. I am also pro, but I watch for looks, not so much for advice :)
3:14 we want an update on angelfish fish breeding pair in 200 tetra tank 😁
I’ve never seen anything match their name better than Timmy
Sorry to see that your beloved fish have passed, always sad to see. I am glad that your back in GB though. This style of videos just resonates better with me. I love your enthusiasm and those Americans are just bleh…
I get scared if I leave and come back with fish dead in my tanks. But my live plants come in handy at times. But do big water changes and pray for the best when i come back.
Ugh. So sorry! I just lost one of my original fairy cichlids (not sure if it was the male or female now that I don't have them both to compare the tails) and an Indian mudskipper. My air pump had shorted out in the mudskipper tank but I have no idea what happened with the fairy. The rest of the colony is just fine, parameters on point. I was sick for a bit and just popping in to feed everyone so now I feel bad because I should have been paying more attention. It's crazy how quickly things can go sideways.
Sorry for your loss md. I feel you I just lost my betta due to water parameters
We're not breaking the speed limit.... no just hitting the weeeeee limit lol😂🎉
you should get a large group of Red rainbows, they start off mostly silver and grow to quite a size with deep reds. stunning fish.
Gutted for you mate, sorry for your losses, I guess try and focus on the positive, could easily have been a total loss if it weren't for all those plants dealing with the ammonia so you still have some gorgeous rainbows in there
🤗
MD, been watching for ages. As a audio engineer, noticing that your audio is.... odd as of late. Not sure if it's the lapel mics? I noticed it when you were in the US and as a sound engineer, your not supposed to "notice" sound. Just my 2¢. Love your stuff
yeah, I was watching the last couple videos and i've noticed the same thing. It either feels a little out of sync, or over processed? For example the conversation between MD and Matt when he first showed up in the video almost seemed dubbed.
I've figured it out. All the room tone is gone. Its almost like its so compressed and EQed that it doesnt feel natural.
I said the same thing! Seems dubbed!
Make a metallic net cage (preferably a cubic one) around the intake and mount it every time you need to getaway. So your wife won't need to bother herself with that, she has a house to manage until her half comes back.
Airstones are your friend! Really no reason not to have one in every tank. They can easily be hidden out of sight 99% of the time. On a side note, my brain freaked out seeing you drive on the wrong side of the road😂 nice whip tho!
Ngl, that title and that music combo was unintentionally hilarious.
Sorry that you lost some of your fish. I love you as a UA-camr because you are always telling us what has happened even if it is bad news
I think we all learned something here, thank you for making this vid
Feel your pain. Had a 120 gallon leak on a Sunday night at 11:30. Wasn't prepared and lost about five South American Cichlids I'd had for about five years.
Wow 😮, that sucks. Sorry bud
😢
It makes sense that the biggest fish were the ones who died because they needed the most oxygen. The smaller fish could survive the lower oxygen environment. I had the same thing happen in one of my tanks recently and had no idea what happened until I saw this video. Thanks for the video!
love the vids keep them up
Great for you to shoe the ups and downs. Plenty of rescapes ahead. Bring on the great content!
Sorry for your loss.
What are the rainbow fish with the red edged fins? They are stunning
Made my Day seeing you in Primark in Taunton the other day dude, sorry to hear about your fish.
I have a sponge before my intake...its covered behind plants so the reason " doenst look good" isnt there
Sorry for your loss of the fish i had similar happen to me due to the heat etc Sorry abit off topic but i have one of those cheap internal filters and i havent cleaned it in 5 months should i clean it or just take out the sponge inside and rinse etc or should i just leave it? Thanks md great video
What sort of light are you using for your fish bowl?
The Cameo template had me laughing 😂
I think i can speak for everybody that we love when Matt is in your videos , doing whatever , keep them coming. One of my favorites is the rainbow tank gutted already want to get rid of it. That scape is beautiful sorry about the fish ☹
That's sad to hear that you lost the rainbows ;( I can feel with you. I have just room for some nano cubes and with this size of aquarium i have a lot of fish losts. Mostly if i have to go away for one week.
Please do more videos with matt i love those types you both definitely vibe of each other
agree , their chemistry is awesome
Ever tried those Bob-Filters? They combine two Sponges with a small pump, so if one side gets blocked you still have the other. Seems to be a good thing.
That's sadly the risk when you want the planted tank to look fully stocked and grown from day one.
Maybe a video of a tank with sparse planting, like most of us have to do because of cost, and we can watch it grow over time?
I was expecting to just post a "Sad -Face" emoji, but you got the new car, are setting up to set up new tanks and overhaul other tanks... C'est la vie, and all that - life... Fish life, goes on ✌💪😁
I'm sorry about your fish. Your tanks are always beautiful...
So sad...those ur rainbow tank is my favourite in the studio. I went and got my own rainbows a year ago after watching one of ur vids. I would be gutted if I lost some
That's devastating, MD 😔
Hey md just a suggestion
You done something with noise canceling.
I dont like noise cancelation because the voice of matt looks like lipsync or something like done with AI voiceover. Actually that looks fake
We can manage echo if your studio has that but it gives naturally kind of vibe.
We appreciate this one 18:47 a natural one
Please dont do that noise canceling thing. It can spoiled the video Request 🙏
Hope you read !
The wood and plants in the rainbow tank would work well with a hardscape only underwater scape if that makes sense
