Thank you again for coming to my fish room George and showcasing my tanks to your subscribers. I hope everyone enjoys the video and we can do something else together again soon...and remember...."welcome to the beauti.." oh wrong channel..."keep on scaping" ;)
I subbed to you big homie looking forward to seeing your videos
@@ikkyplays4500 Thanks very much. Lots and lots to come everyone from myself and George :)
MD Fish Tanks that's great I love watching fish videos but run out of them 😂 I changed from marines back to planted again so your channel is really good for me really impressed the way you done things..
You're the sexiest and most talented scaper, Marc. Thanks to George for the tour.
Oh and the Aquasphere is a beauty
So this dude has all these tanks, children, a wife, a tidy looking house and garden, a successful youtube channel, looks buff and probably a job to finance this. Awesome time-management!!
When you love what you do, you find a way 😊
@@MDFishTanks These are incredible! I've just discovered aquascaping as of a few days ago and feel inspired to start my own tank. I have no concept of what kind of maintenance is required for one of these, how much time would I expect to spend on say a 22 gallon tank?
@@mar504 youre going to spend the first month worrying about it everyday
mar504 probably 1 - 1,5 hours per week roughly.
And now I'm really surprised. I've been watching MD's channel for a few months now but never went as far back as this. What a progress he's made in only three years! And I'm not even talking about the 688K subscribers or his brand new studio. An absolute chapeau bas!
How does this guy find the time to work full time, be a dad, keep a dozen amazing tanks, keep a youtube channel, push mad weight at the gym? This guy is like the Dwayne Johnson of the aquascaping world. Great interview George!!
I'm sure, it's not always easy, and he's not doing it all alone
This guy is going to be a UA-cam Legend. Mark my words.
That's amazing that you were his inspiration and now look at him. I can imagine how nervous and excited he was to meet you, the person that started it all for him.
I love this lad, so genuine, means well and truly appreciates the hobby.
One year on - MD now joining the big boys!! 150k + subscribers
Thanks for the tour George. My two favorite scapers in one place lol. I cant believe Mark's only been on the tube for 8 months. Seems like I've been watching him for years.
🌺Thank you for sharing this video. Wow, I can't believe Marc Davis have only been aquascaping for only 1 1/2 years. Very impressive!!!🌱🐠
George so glad you did a tour of MD Fish Tanks! If been watching his channel for a while. What a treat for you to feature him and his talent! 🙏🏻🙌🏻
Wow, minutes after posting, nearly 1100 views! Your and Mark s fans are truly enjoying watching this bromance develop.. ..you guys are the best!! :D
totally, love the bromance haha. so cool you guys can hang out.
@@chesian ;D I dont know how mark was able to keep his composure, tho.. id probably faint if george farmer showed up at my door lool
@@martisl9652 haha. I probably wouldn't faint but would probably geek out. And then ask them to redo my 120 😂
What a great youtube collaboration! MD always has some really cool stuff going on. Also really like how it's a longer video. Really inspirational and informative as always!
Thoroughly enjoyed that cheers lads! Seriously inspiring. Soft spot for the paludarium/terrarium style, always wanted to try, love the caves you’ve created with them so interesting and natural looking. Keep up the great work mate
absolutely in love with marcs methods and how well he executes these tanks. Some of the most gorgeous and perfectly done tanks I've seen.
Awesome video. Love Mark's work, he's a real inspiration to people like me who are operating on a budget.
I’m loving the low tech tank videos! I’m just getting started in the hobby, so it’s nice to see you can be successful without spending a crazy amount ❤️
This was really nice listening to you two just talk about Marc's tanks and seeing them all together in one video. I've been following Marc already since last year sometime, I think. Enjoyed this a lot. Thank you.
So funny seeing MD being serious and going at George's pace, two different styles and approaches to scaping and yet both get amazing results.
That living room tank is absolutely gorgeous!
Such na awesome man cave, George thank you for introducing us to Marc. I dig this.
What a natural! I did very well setting up tanks right off the bat but this blows me away! Fantastic! I love the low maintenance! Fantastic showcase George!
Been subscribed to MD for a while now and I get excited every time I see he uploads and drop what I’m doing to watch. His low tech tanks took away those feelings of overwhelm that I had from researching the hobby. Glad to see him on this channel.
Marc's style is so cool and a nice contrast but also pairing with what you do George. I think with all the concerns we face with climate change focusing more on low tech could be a way for us to have less impact on energy usage and consumption. Also his use of cooler water fish and ones that are relatively easy to breed just seems like a sweet way to go. (Of course with the exception of his display tank but he has some nice looking discuss and rummy nose). His aquariums in general have a really natural feel to them. Furthermore, Marc has a great knack for saving money, for example his DIY and discount lights. I have done both low and high tech and enjoy both, but Marc has really inspired me to see if I can get into some even more aesthetically pleasing low tech when I change layouts and equipment in the future. Both of you should keep up some collaboration and friendly competition as this all goes towards community building and is in my opinion one of the nicest things about our hobby. Great video George and good work in reaching out to Marc. Both of you are doing lovely stuff.
Thank you George for visiting with Marc. I think it's great what he does! See the inspiration you put out? I too really started with the plant side of the hobby because of you. So cool. I love his first paludarium. Which fish for the new scape is always difficult for me😏 Thanks again George for all the inspiration and keeping us all scaping 👍👍👍
I'm actually inspired by both of you to start off my fish room. Thanks. Huge fan of both yours and Mark's.
Amazing shed! Really cool setup! Thanks for the tour George! Love the setups with plants in and out of water! He has done an amazing job!
Love his channel, so glad you guys did a collab!!
Thanks George. Love both of your show. Enjoy watching and learn from you both
I had subscribed to Mark's channel after you set up your bowl and i've learnt so much from his experiments that i set up a windowsill bowl as an experiment of my own with some wild shrimps and guppies.
Finally glad to hear his voice and have an insight behind the scenes.
Awesome to see such an influence that is being shared in this community!
This is so cool! George, thank you so much for showing us another amazing aquascaper!! MD, you have a new subscriber! 😁👍⛲🌱🐟
Marc - you are very talented. Thanks for sharing this George.
Cheers Tim :)
Hi George, great video today, I have been really impressed with Mark's approach to scaping and tank set ups. I'm sure he will inspire many people , both newcomers and regular fish keepers. The smaller tanks are really beautiful too , and his videos are made in a relaxing style. Good of you to help expand his site, bravo George.👏👏👏
Thanks for a wonderful video, George. I've been following Mark's channel for a while, and it's great to see you discover it, and connect with him. You are two of my favorite UA-camrs in the hobby.
It's a wonderful contrast to have Mark's DIY, low-tech approach, vs your more traditional high-tech style.
Wow! Thanks for the Amazon floodlight tip. 20W of 6500 light are now only $14.95 each !
My two favourite youtubers collaborating on an awesome aquascaping tour video!! Great content guys! Looking forward to seeing the bromance develop in the future.😊👍
So jealous of the fish room/office!
Really enjoyed this video, and I've just completed my own little vase aquascape inspired by MD's jars 😍
Fantastic video, as always, George! And shoutout/thanks to MD Fish Tanks as well! Pardon the lengthiness of this comment but...
Wow. I've just, just gotten into the hobby; no scapes of my own yet. However, I've been subscribed to both of you for a short while now and binging all your videos in my free time. This video upload was perfectly timed for me! So great to see you two together. I know spreading the knowledge and inspiring others is important to you both, and I can certainly say that I have been lucky enough to receive that from your content.
One of the things that stood out to me was what you mentioned @ 20:00 . I, of course, was inspired by Mark's style of no CO2 (and other low-tech choices), but the water in my area is very hard. I'm glad I heard this before trying it with a ton of expensive plants in one of my early projects!
Also, 20:36 discussion about the betta fight was hilarious! Haha, "......moving on."
Perfect.
How do I enter to win a free, complete DOOA aquascape from you, George? Did I miss how you plan to decide that? If I'm in the states, am I still eligible? :D
P.S. My favorite scape of Mark's is the bigger non co2, no filter, no fert tank. I don't know how he does it, but it looks amazing. Goals.
2021, as a man who has recently fallen in love with aquascaping working on my first 2 scales at the same time, this video brings me great joy. Both of you are my two biggest influences. I hate that y'all are across the pond. Im glad this video was made. To watch Mark stumble to George that he was his influence was amazing. I got goosebumps for sure. I love the both of you. Thank you.
I think it's really wonderful that you are so supportive of each other! Need more collaborations! 😊
Thank you, George, for the visit to Marc's fish room. I have been following him for some time so it was great to meet the man and see all the tanks. I was very interested in the discussion on the water parameters. I have medium-hard water here in Hinckley and no problems. I have always expected crypts to melt but they never have yet. I really like Marc's low tech approach. I have 2 low tech tanks and one high tech and it is the high tech that gives the most anxiety.
I love this video! My favorite scape is the one that he is about to do. I just subscribed to him! Thank you for sharing this tour George. I was so sad when it was over. I have several large vases around that I have been experimenting with and he is giving me so much inspiration! Thank you again! Cheeri-O! - Little Bobby
As someone who is new to this, I think they are amazing! I first had a tropical tank about 40 years ago as a young teen. It was all about the fish, ornaments and air stones. How times have changed. The aquascapes and even the fish have evolved in the hobby. So beautiful, and very inspiring
brilliant! tanks look great- was surprised by such a long photoperiod but seems to be working. great work Marc
Whoah, this is awesome! I need to find a vase and set up a little scape now. finally figured out what to do with trimmings and extra soil! totally inspired!
Thanks for the tour. That was awesome to watch. Such talent
That’s amazing he’s only being doing it for a year and a half gives everyone hope and I hope you realise how inspirational you are from this George you’ve sparked this guys love for aquascaping and he’s only one of the 97k subscribed keep it up 👌
wonderful tanks but more than that a wonderful sense of camaraderie between you both. Thank you both.
If anyone’s wondering, the terrapin tank Mark bought is actually called a “Ciano Tartarium”. I know because I just bought one last week for my own scape lol 😄
What an inspirational guy. Subscribed straight away.
Great video. Love Mark's channel and yours. Mark's videos make it feel feasible for anyone to set up a planted tank.
Fantastic vid George! I started watching this dude's vids recently and he has quickly shot up there as one of my favourites. Love the style and his videoing skills are fabulous-such beautifully high quality vids to look at
Thank you George for putting this up I'm a new subscriber to you... I recently caught the scaping bug and Marc just really inspired me to delv deeper into the diy style aqua scaping with the results he getting from his low tech diy style this is truly awesome... Thanks again boys from USA!
Thanks Brian!
Truly Inspired Mark you're awesome.. Thanks for the video George.. some day I'll send you guys the result of your vids in my talks.. Stay amazing as always. :)
ought to do a revisit when he gets all his tanks moved over to his new space.
Goes to show you should never underestimate what an Englishman can do with his shed. Amazing tanks mate, I struggle keeping just 1 from going bad! :)
Love this collaboration. Love both your guys content. It’s funny seeing md before he was super comfortable on camera
Fav Channel right now
Applause!!! Such a great vid! Thanks george!
He has an amazingly artistic eye! And your red sieve would look great in that black room...;) Thank you both!
Wow!!! Awesome setup of setups, very inspiring and shows what you can do without all the fancy gear.
Thanks for keeping the camera on the tanks - it was a wonderful video. I really enjoy Marc's channel. ee
Have subscribed to Mark's channel. The tanks look amazing. Cool video guys, love it
Amazing contents
It just goes to show that it's not all about the "bucks" you pore into the hobby, but the LOVE you give it...
A brilliant idea backed with a few £ can go such a long way...
That river hedge tank is SO IMPRESSIVE!
Beta tank row-model for ME, coming soon to my house... GOT INSPIRED!
Thank YOU George and Mark
Stay safe, have fun! Thks for sharing
Best regards from Portugal
Very impressive work by MD fish 💓💓💓
Thanks for beautiful video 💓💓💓
George , started watching your videos about a year and half now , started with my 55 gallon and now I’ve got 6 tanks along with 3 bowls. You’ve inspired me to start aqua scaping as well 👍🏻
Bowls are massively underrated
Phenominal! Totally inspiring! What a legend.
18 months and amazing art displays like that with no C02 or fert??? Wow, impressive.
Love his stuff. Really inspirational!
Will be subscribing what stunning tanks and made to look so easy, freat video george thanks.
thank you for sharing sir. md fish tank is my favorite scaper 😁 very inspiring
his got some really good looking cardinals. good size and healthy
I loved the behind the scene view..Tanks look amazing!!
So nice to see MD (and learn his proper name!) 3 years ago now with the perspective of where he is at today. 🐠🪸🪷🌿
Awsome work! I have two Jebo tanks that I am starting to work on. Going to follow the same principles.
Hi George and Mark! I follow both of your channels! Both pretty awesome to watch! And i started the Aquascaping hobby about 6 months ago! And just wachten your guys channels help so much!
Keep on cracken on boys! Good on ya!
Refreshing to see his simple designs.
Awesome, great looking tanks. He has some good stuff on his channel as well. Thanks for making this video George. For the stock I'd suggest the nannostomus mortenthaleri. Beautiful looking fish.
love all his tanks puts mine to same i have been keeping fish for over 25 years but only started using plants in the last few year
Thanks to following you George I wound up being suggested md, and his work is great too, I had to subscribe. His betta tank looks lovely.
Great to hear. Marc is producing some great content!
Nice work MD love the basic tanks but quality tanks 👍
Nice tour George, so detail question in Marc Tanks
An amazing video! Have been following MD for about a month now ever since I got my nano tank which has just fish now. And I got inspired by MD and his low tech ways. Planning on my first aquascape, fingers crossed. Spent most of my evening today trying to find the best filter for my aquascape tank. Internal filters are said to have quite a flow and hang ons are more recommended. However, now am inspired and convinced and I want to experiment like MD :) and go low tech. No filter. No CO2. Just some basic fert. Planting soil. And plants, java fern. Lets see how it goes :) wish me luck :)
Two of my faves!
George, 4 tanks? Gotta pump those numbers up
Thanks George, and Marc, for the insight and inspiration! I wonder how many viewers, like myself, have a spare nano laying around and are going to whip it out and give MD's method a go!
Wow! Love this collaboration
Wow,amazing,and only been fishkeeping for a year,great skill,looks like soft water is the magic bullet, might have to get my ro gear left over from my reef days,back in action,have subscribed to Marc's channel
MD is one of the most humble youtuber I have ever come acrossQ
wow MD fish this is one of my favorite aquascaping channel
No co2 no ferts no heater no push ups, lol. You tube showed me MD after watching one of your vids George, so I took a peak and subbed right away( few weeks ago), cool to see someone so enthousiastic and successful. This is something we can all try sometime , an ADA setup is harder to achieve ( costs). When you have a tank it's nice to experiment with MD s setups. I like DIY but it's gotta look neat and tidy, nicely finished like Marc s. Great vid
Very good and interesting video. Gorgeous Aquascape.
He has a fantastic imagination. Great ideas from these tanks.
I’m a bit late on this one, as I’ve only been into aquascaping for a couple of months, but great to see 2 of my favourite content makers together in 1 vid… Really interesting to see behind the scenes on Marks setup (as was then)… Big love from Staffordshire 💙
Awesome. Thx for sharing George
Very good video. Gorgeous aquascape.
From 23k to half a million in 2 years. Amazing to see where he started.
Hello im à french fan Of George and also à french fan Of md tank. So great t to see you Together. Amazing aquascape. Sorry for my bad english.
Even stealing your question George!😂 Marks shed is sweet though! Really cool seeing such beautiful tanks being put together like that on a budget👍🏻🌱
Excellent job! More low-tech stuff, George. Please! :-)
