Here is a nice little update on some of the aquariums in the studio. A lot of them are doing well. Not all perfect but I'm happy with 80% of them. A lot of you were asking about the different tanks so in this video we will take a look at some of them. I'll update you on the rest in the next vlog video 👍

Pinned your own comment and lovehearted your own comment......Noice mate
@@muddymaker3721 it's just such a great comment...
@@muddymaker3721 dont be mean 😂
@@MDFishTanks it is!
Your comments listing the music you have playing, links to resources, etc, have always been great!!!!
Much appreciated 😁
man, you should be watching for that filter inlet that will suck a lot of baby guppies!!! your fish room it is awesome!
Me: makes an over the top video about how good Sprung Scissors are!
MD: keeps one of his fingernails long just for trimming plants! Such dedication! 😂
😂😂 The problem with tools....never where you left them. Well...I guess they are where you left them, I just can't remember where that is lol. 🤣
@@MDFishTanks Ha. You just need a smaller fishroom again MD. Can't lose anything in my basement....
@@MDFishTanks my fish shelf system is 84" x 84" x 26"
I have all my tools stored and organized under the bottom shelf...
I still use my fingernail to pinch/prune plants because my nails are already in the tank when I see what needs trimming.😁
@@MDFishTanks the same with me 🤣
I was at the pet store today and they had a little Timmy in there and I thought mmm, I need him in my aquarium until I saw the price tag, $2,500.00. Little Timmy is still at the pet store.
that shoudlnt be right
You probably read it wrong. Musk turtles are 250.00 at my store.
little Timmy cost wayy too much so little Timmy stay at pet store lol
That price isn’t right
In the U.S they’re pretty cheap
Can't wait to see Timmy's new set up. I have a turtle and always struggle with any plants outside duckweed that will survive. She usually likes to pull plants up and wear them like a scarf
One of my favorite things about your videos is your talking and how you don’t over-use music. Your videos have been entertaining, inspiring and relaxing for me for several weeks now. Thank you so much for your channel!
My grandad and great uncle had a special way of clipping and sharpening there thumbnails for pinching cuttings from plant shows and botanical gardens after the war when they where re making the gardens after the wives had to grow veg while they where at war ! Just had some great memories 👍
Great video! If you make another paludarium consider adding some springtails and isopods! It'll make the tank bioactive and bring it to life. The springtails and isopods will eat mold and fungus and decaying stuff. If you try it, I would recommend white springtails and some beautiful isopod like the clown, zebra, high yellow etc.
Morning MD! 🎉 that’s how my plant looks with co2 and the flood lights you recommended. Love the tank since Adding the lights
Your Guppy tank really caught my eye. I like how you only used males. It makes the fish stand out more, I think. The plants turned out fantastic. Keep up the great work. Much love and respect
Love these update videos, I always learn so much from them actually!
I love your videos, they put me in such a good mood when the notification comes up, the rare fish aquarium is absolutely buzzing! And your Betta fish is beautiful, good video 👍
Love the updates. Besides, it gives us another chance to look at all your lovely tanks and fish! I never tire of looking at all of them. Would love to be able to sit in your fish room and watch for hours! Thanks for sharing, today. Enjoyed it, as usual.
Be nice if he showed them every now and then instead of his shiny HR face
You are such a delight to watch! I love to learn new stuff, and I do every time I watch your VLOG. Thanks‼️
We got our aquarium from a friend that didn't want his anymore. He had shrimp and snails. After adding some fish, I must say, that I get more entertained by the shrimp. it's quiet nice to look at them doing their own thing.
Tanks are looking great MD! Keep it up!
Yay Timmy!!
Yay new Timmy tank!!
Can not wait!!!!
I love this video. Sorry about the "thumbs down" click, that was an accident and I've undone it. I really enjoy your channel and learn a lot from what you do. So glad that you're doing this work!
this is the best aquascape youtuber. keep making videos. love it. ❤
PIMP NAIL!! Love it! true dedication
Md please do more of these updates videos more often
My favorite tank of yours is the rare fish ecosystem. Beautiful work.
Neocaridina are still my favorite shrimp. I love the algae covered rocks and the grassy area for the bitty babies seems to be working really well.
👍💖👍
Good to see you have good success with your shrimp MD! Akadama is good for simple caridina like crystal or tiger shrimp for instance but it's not so great for high-end caridina because its pH is higher than 6. That's why not many breeders use it.
ok cool thanks mate. So it's good for the crystals? I'll just be happy with a boat load of those 😂
@@MDFishTanks Akadama is fine for breeding high end shrimp 👍
@@MDFishTanks Yes I had a very good result to breed crystal reds on Akadama before! It's Mark's favorite soil and he even uses it for breeding high end caridina.
Thanks for the Timmy update. Looking forward to seeing he’s new set up
Happy to see a new video! 😊
(And you said hello beautiful people ❤)
MD, pimping them plants! Your pimp thumb is strong 😂 sorry couldn’t help it! That cracked me up! Everything’s looking great!
MD, if you keep the different colors of shrimp in the same tank they will begin to breed back to the wild coloration of brown, Tiger type pattern on the tails. I learned this on my first shrimp tank a few years back, just an FYI.
Fish are amazing to watch, but there is something magical about a shrimp tank. Great update, MD.
Great video as always! Hello from Southern Alberta Canada!
nice, simple and clean!
I put five varieties of shrimps into a "Skittles tank" (as you called yours) just to see what would happen. The Crystal Reds and the Crystal blacks made babies that looked just like the adults, but one or two of my other shrimps (Red cherry, blue dream, and golden yellowback) produced a bunch of babies I would refer to as ghost shrimps. I am not even a little unhappy, but I am a bit surprised to see such pretty shrimps revert to their more natural state of coloration so quickly. I think they are pretty too. Though they are still small, I can see some are developing small spots and patterns. I wonder what they will look like in another couple of generations.
Speaking from personal experience you can definitely keep betta fish in big tanks. I've currently got a tri-colour dumbo betta in my 3 foot, 260 litre community tank and he's absolutely thriving. He swims around the whole tank and I couldn't imagine keeping him in a smaller one. It's planted and contains bogwood so plenty of resting places if needed.
I'm currently thinking about moving one of my bettas into my next 40B/166L tank I'm planning to move out the corydoras that were only supposed to be in his tank temporarily. Something I saw recently, it may have been on this channel, is those decorative betta leaves all the way up one side of the tank so that a betta can rest wherever in the big tank they had it in.
Big tanks are great if they are heavily planted, shouldn’t be a big open space.
Everyone in Japan uses Akadama for their outdoor medaka pot biotopes (myself included). It works great.
Excited at the idea of a new build for Tim, nothing wrong with his new one but sounds like fun haha 🙂
Looks so beautiful so eyes pleasing
Hi MD. It would be interesting to see you use the Father Fish recipe for a deep subatrate tank and how your experience with this concept would shape up
Awsome vid!I would love to see the tanks in your house and a turtle update
love the guppies & shrimp Wonderful video. :)
I just recently came across your channel and have been sucked in big time! I've had a fish tank for years and never had success with plants (my own lack of knowledge and not the right stuff) I am now going to make a few new smaller tanks and make a full ecosystem because of the quality of your videos so thank you for sharing your knowledge with the world! I am curious what size the male guppy tank is? It would be awesome if you talked a bit about the size of the tanks you are showing or put it in the description. I am definitely a subscriber, your joy for this hobby shows with the way you talk about it!
My tanks are the opposite! I can rarely grow stems and floaters but everything else grow well. Love your tanks as always though. I just got a new 227L/60gal tank I'm going to scape and definitely looking for inspiration from your vids :)
Enjoy the quick updates like this! 😀
Nice job!
MD revolutionized plant trimming. ADA bouta go out of business
ALWAYS a pleasure
Hey man. 👋 How are you?
Thank you for your inspiration, motivation and straightforward manner.
My geophagus red horseface just died yesterday and it sux, but I feel better now I am watching this vid. Thanks.
All the best,
Melbourne, Australia
I recommend GlasGarten Bacter AE and Mineral Junkie along with Brightwell SHRIMP NEO TIGER KH+/GH+
For your shrimp feed bacter ae AND shrimp baby and shrimpfit. These 3 things have made my shrimp tanks go crazy Constant babies. And I only fee them these 1 a week each a day apart. And it's amazing the shrimp really really do love these. I feed it in all 4 of my tanks.
Some ferns do die off seasonally, especially those collected in nature from local (northern) woodlands. Tropical ferns may slow their growth seasonally but they don’t go completely dormant. All it takes to start moss is a couple miniscule spores and... TAA DAAA moss!
You should feed your shrimp canned green beans. It's a cheap food and extremely beneficial for them
And that shrimp tank is doing really good. I have 8 berried shrimp and just had 3 others give birth with in the last few days.
Just subbed your channel and love it thinking about redoing my tank and getting some ideas from your vids
How are your neocaridina shrimp offspring maintaining color in the mixed tank? I was told that mixing colors usually ends up with brown or grays.
mixing colours at first comes with wild random colors. But eventually down the line as they keep breeding they'll become brown or see through. At least based on my internet searches
This is TRUE!
I love your videos and I have some video ideas you could do you could do some top 10 videos like top 10 aquarium plants or you could do top 10 aqua scaping tips
Good updates
We need to know it all!
Lights are super bright
😊 Nice 😊👍🙂
Hi MD!
Amazing video. Could you tell us which light are you using on the first aquarium you show?
Thank you!
@MD, go and have a look to my s repens into neutral soil (one of my last 2 vids) and tell me what you think 😉
Thanks for the update, nice. Rgrds
Everything is looking great!, wondering what brand scraper do you use?
Great video! Do you have a link for the mid range light which was producing great results? Thanks
what about a tank or some semi-aquatic crabs at some point? that'd be cool
Md Fishtanks are always A1
😎 cool
I love that he thinks breeding neo caridinia shrimp requires skill, talent, and attention to detail as with grinding the flakes. He'll eventually be over run with shrimp, especially if feeding everyday. Anyway, good production quality as ever.
waiting for the Walstad update :)
Hey Md,
I really really like your'e video's. about the Indian thank. Is the water surface exchange good? I had that problem before that there is not a good amount of air exchanging.
Hi there in some of your videos you used topsoil or normal garden gravel how do you tell if things are OK to go in your tank I'm planning a tank makeover later in the year thanks
I may have not seen it but have you made a video on takin plants out, especially bulb plants
Nice
love the videos, can I ask what gh, kh, and ph your neo tank is?
LOL the first fish was like "Film me! Not the plants!" 🤣
I love the drift wood sticking out of the first tank! I realized that i had a problem recently in one of my tanks with drift wood sticking out of the water like this. It is actually starting to rot right in the area above the water where the wood is still moist but not in the water itself. I also have another problem with the driftwood sticking out for the lack of lids I can place on the tank to prevent fish from jumping out. Its to late for the rot since it has started but any solution to the prevent wood from rotting in the first place as well as any ideas for lids?
MD does a saltwater tank next. That would be great. Perhaps Sea horses and shrimp tank with sea grass and macro algae? What do ya say MD?
Can you make an ecosphere, closed but not strictly, for shrimp. that's a challenge!
Nice video again! Indeed a great shrimp tank!!
I am planning to make a DIY shrimp tank this week with IKEA glass and start shaping it soon after. I will have an extra canister filter but I plan to also use another internal filter filled with 'dirty' filter floss from my other canister filter so speed up the cycling. Does that make sence?
Yes the dirty cycled filter will work, or you can set up a new clean filter, then squeeze out the dirty filter water into the new tank and let it spread into the new tank and work it’s way into the new filter as well.
The rare fish eco system look beautiful. What light do you have on it?
cool
@MD Hi, how did you deal with hair algae ? How did it turn white. I have a lot in my tank.
wow those bright red fish in the 4ft at the start! What are those?
How is the german blue ram tank ? I really enjoy that tank set up
Would really like to know your lighting times. How long and at what intensity.
Really Nice vidéo. I always enjoy seeing your aquariums.
Can someone tells me what are the full red fishs in the first aquarium. I like them so much.
Thanks.
Long fin cherry barbs
OMG video out 2 seconds ago. MD can we have a house tank tour. Where’s pancho?
Pancho is dead...
Pancho was sick he went to a person that has experience with axolotls and i never heard of him again
Really? When was this?
Lewis what r u on??
@@DoorsToHideBehind156 it’s not funny
hi is it just the high lighting that make the rocks in the neocaridina tank green?
My water is way too hard and it is hard to get it softer with standard practices so shrimp tanks in Minnesota is not that common. I wish they were because they are so cool.
You should start up an Axolotl tank my man! Looking great!
Those things are weird looking.
What would you say is the next light up from this one and will you be testing it out?
MD bring back the Peninsula fast flow river tanks!!!!
What settings are you running for this light? More red or more blue? Or on “all” settings perhaps?
Just started watching the video & wow that light is awesome! First tank in the video. What is it?🇦🇺❤️
Da-Fish-ency!
I also find ferns seem to die off and regrow in the fall. No idea why!
MD, we’re getting our first aquascape currently, and I haven’t been able to find how long, or how to create beneficial bacteria. We have a tank and plants so far. Want to do shrimp, pea puffer, and snails. TIA!!
You can buy it, API and fluval both sell beneficial bacteria. The pea puffers should enjoy the shrimp and snails as a tasty snack in a few minutes 😁
With Timmy new tank make him a island to rest on
What filter are you using? Does it suck up shrimp?
Limnophila sessiflora does not cope well with strong flow, which is what I think is happening in the Indian tank.
Took me the longest time to work out why mine kept dying in a high tech tank.
How did you het rid of the hair algae? For.some reason one of my tanks it's appeared and I can't get rid of it lol
TIMMY!
I’m about to try a self-care / ecosystem small bowl project! What are some good starter plants you like for that?
Given all the bio matter created by Timmy, do you think you could ever manage to make a no water change ecosystem tank for him?
