MAKING A WATERFALL PALUDARIUM / AQUATERRARIUM FOR MY AXOLOTL || MD FISH TANKS

Grab a hot drink, beer or mixer and chill out to this one guys.
Pancho has been stuck in my plant storage tank for too long. I'm setting up this 100 litre (28.5 gallon) paludarium/aquaterrarium for him as a home over the coming months so we can put some size on him with extra feeding. You are limited to their digestion times as they can take several days to digest their food, but when he has a poo, we can be right on top of it for clean up and re-feeding.
After we set up the 90cm tank for Pancho (collecting resources), this tank will be fully planted with a carpet plant and home to a lucky betta!!!!

Looks absolutely incredible, I would expect nothing less
haha. Thanks
Haha pumpkin and ghost are watching you the whole time loving it
they got front row seats haha
A quick note. When I say power feed, I just mean be right on top of the feeding. Axolotls actually take several days to digest food and you don’t want to feed them until they have made a stool…but as soon as he does, we will see it easy now, be able to clean it and get perfect water and then feed again :D
SHE 😂
@Isaac last time MD said he was starting to think Pancho was a boy again, because of the lump near the tail. I guess we’ll only really know once Pancho is fully grown?
@@BlueLighteningGojo yeah there is a large lump developing at the base of the tail...I think he's a boy after all....that and he is more streamline and girls tend to have more boooooooootty :D
BettaTimeStories oooh.
Love the details of care you give in all your videos! Masterful work as always man:) Dont mind the critics questioning the obvious there will always be people around not seeing whats right in front of them. :3 Any plans for a game fish aquarium??
I love the local sourcing you do. I walk around the streams by me in New Jersey and do the same. Glad you post proof that its normal.
haha. If im out and about anywhere near nature....Im always looking!
It is normal... Isn't it??? 🤔
Mail man- "Whats in this box? Rocks?"
MD- "Yes."
It’s 2 am and I’m making amazing life choices
#commitmentsquad
I live in America so I’m watching this at 2 am
Me too...lol
I’m in Canada, an hour ahead of the earliest USers... too much FishTube 😁
#commitmentsquad
Even in South Korea either!
U usually give us some better end-of-vid scape scenes to the music. I know u probly didn't bc this vid got kind of lengthy, but I always appreciate that part of ur videos. After watching a build, it let's us enjoy the beauty & serenity of the completed scape in the way that u get to enjoy it by being there.
Yeah i will show in future but like you say, the vid was already very long.

MD Fish Tanks every time I watch your videos the first thing I do is like it
@@sullivandunn508 PERFECT!
Don't worry you don't look weird talking to your phone in the rain you just look like a 20 something :P
Hey mate were can I buy the tank from
@@justbaquatics2512 at Aquariums for life mate www.aquariums4life.co.uk/
As always, living the dream vicariously through your creations and yes I do indeed describe you as the ‘guru’ of aquascaping!
Keep it up 👍
Now that's a nice looking tank
Looks stunning
cigarette filters, liquid super glue and a little baking soda = instant cure stability. the filters add material to bond the rocks, liberally apply the glue and then sprinkle on the baking soda to cure to glue in seconds.
Thanks Riley. Will be good with mini landscape but not needed with these rocks. They lock IN!
I am about to start liking a paludarium. It's beautifully done! Thanks for upping this one.
Have you ever considered live streaming doing a scape? I feel like this would be the perfect content for twitch IRL or something and would be great to see everything from start to finish.
this
yeah trying to sort the internet for livestreaming. Waiting for some fibre. Wont be long
This looks so great. Getting serious paludarium envy along with axolotl envy. I need more room. Have 4 tanks and one LARGE Betta bowl in the house so severe lack of space. It's great to see Pancho's new home. Looking forward to updates.
Poncho is a lucky girl, her new home looks stunning !
Awesome been waiting for this for a few days love the waterfall.. it looks good very natural and a lot cleaner than the water they live in the wild.
yeah think their natural habitat has been polluted.
@@MDFishTanks It has I'll have too find some footage of lake diving I have done in Mexico where they are from too, it's pretty bad over run with Asian Carp and one of the lakes it's from has been completely drained.. there are more of them in Captivity than in the wild.
Looks great! Pancho looks happy! 😃 sorry I’m late
Hi MD
Panchos new habitat looks great.
One of my favorites now
We’ve all been eager to see Pancho’s new home! You had quite a vision for it, and carried it through beautifully. The mist over the moss kind of gives it a swamps of Dagobah feel-that eventual lucky betta may have to be named Yoda! Can’t wait to show this video to my husband when he wakes up in the morning, I think I may be able to sway him into the hobby by turning over one of my dozen tanks to an axolotl for him ☺️
haha. If he's a star wars fan then you are sorted :D
Good plan let us know how it goes. Don't know how anyone could pass up the chance to get a cute axolotl. 👍
The mist is an incredible addition.
Cheers mac. So glad I remembered it. Might add it to a few other tanks as well as we progress.
The tank looks amazing. It’s give me idea for my 54g corner tank. I agree on take your time to get the right stuff. Not rush the setups
You can put together anything...but im looking for some rare hardscape.
Good luck with your scape, corner tanks are always interesting to scape. 👍
Your cute goldfish is like, “dude! Quit filming and feed me! I’m right here!” 😂
The finished result is spot on! Great use of mosses, Great job!
I love the way Pancho just let you pick him up lol. Love the mist.
Mature water has nitrates and phosphates and other organics which can help feed the bacteria in the tank which is a good thing, but you need also some mature media that contains the bacteria otherwise it would be pointless.
yeah so the new filter has lots of cycled media added to it :)
Do you do water tests? If so what are you using?
Love the final result. It always blows me away you grab moss from outside. Initially I was like "what?" But any organisms on it probably aren't anything another creature can't handle. I'm going to go hunt for some today. I live in a wet environment so should be easy. Keep up the great work!
In terms of using water from the discus tank I do this aswell. Yes it won't really contain much bacteria but it means your water perimeters will be spot on straight away and that's why I like to do it.
very nice! I love the way it turned out it's perfect! and the mist gives it just the right vibe! a bit spooky and Pancho makes the whole tank have kind of a prehistoric eerie kind of vibe! awesome good job!
One can near how giddy you sound about build. Your exuberance is inspiring!
"hopefully no one sees me because I look like an absolute nutter" proceeds to take moss off the street
Hey! You there! Put that moss back will ya!
🤣
Honestly that's a mood though.
I took some moss growing on the sidewalk when I was out walking my dog...LOL I made a terrarium for it :)
When he said this I thought the same when I was getting moss from my work
Love the "fragile" tape on that box of rocks.
Another great build. Can't wait for the next. Keep it up.
This is by far your best paladarium to date.
The tank looks awesome 😎😎😎 i love it
thanks
With what do you clean the outside of the tanks with?
I used to baby my fish. The acclimation process took half-an-hour by floating them in bags into the new tank and adding water slowly here in there and gently releasing them
In the first like 5 min this is already one of my favorite of your videos
Yes mate !!! very nice top job brilliant video once again very much enjoyed it happy days
that last stick... made the entire thing sing!
Final look is amazing!
cheers Richard.
Man..... That's so B E A U T I F U L!! Love that tank.
Beautiful. Yeah, “I feel more connected to it” does sound a bit weird, but I see what you mean. I can see a paladarium in my future. Meanwhile, I’m setting up my 10 gallon, ten dollar aquarium-on-the- cheap that you inspired me to start. Your neighborhood moss scavenging has inspired me again. Rather than expensive mopani wood, I’m going down to the beach to scavenge some free driftwood. (I’ll clean it and boil it, of course.)
How on earth are you not adding floating plants? Its a basic signature at this point - and will give Pancho some further shade!
Nah, the hand movements ( or as you say, 'and mövements .... good merch idea!) add to it. Don't stop.
Beautiful, I love it, so natural and pleasant to the eye...in America as well, 3:30am, excited to see this video...
Great job scaping! I am a huge fan of the perfect/imperfect approach to emulate nature! This is stunning!
Not only do you not like silicone because you'd have to wait, it would also be harder to rescape the tank. And we all know the tank would only last a few months before being reworked again. Lol. The paludarium looks fantastic, I bet Pancho will love it!
Looking great!
Lovely UK weather...
The mist is dope!
Never stop being yourself MD! your personality is great!!
Your hand wants to be a STAR !!😁
Love the tank . 👍SHe will be so happy . Anyway love your videos keep them coming .
So calming...
The fogger is beyond cool !!
I’m Such a big fan of your work I just can’t believe how beautiful your things look can’t wait to see more of your videos
Yey! Pancho's new home. I bet she loves it, I would if I were her. XD living the better life than I ever would be able to. XD
he again lol. Lump now forming at the base of the tail and staying streamline.
@@MDFishTanks my bad. Just when i got used to calling her a her. XD
Another awesome MD tank, love it, Pancho will be happy there!
Can’t wait to make a paludarium of my own. I’m new to the hobby and taking my time to learn the basics. You have given a great glimpse into what I can do with more experience. Thank you.
That is so so so cool yes open and shape of video game... Lol... Whole new perspective! Awesome!
Could be my favourite
This looks great! Crazy how just a little bit of moss can add so much!
Consistently blown away by your designs and the numerous species highlighted! I’ve been watching your channel for inspiration, but you are making it extremely difficult for me to choose a direction to go in. They all are just spectacular. Bravo, sir!
Stunning! The mist is the perfect touch. I envy Pancho her new home.
yeah thanks
got so excited when i saw this thumbnail
nice. Is it a good thumb or should be closer??
MD Fish Tanks i think it’s perfect right now if it were closer it would look off in my opinion because the angle is super good
Looking good! You create really inspiring videos which stand out from the crowd. Well done!
This is awesome and it was fun to watch.
So happy to see Pancho in a proper tank by himself!! Yay!! I bet he is happy having a home all to himself!! 😊 Kinda sad the rocks weren't siliconed down tho... Also, Axlotls like chilled water. Most people actually use a water cooler.
water needs to be 16-18 degrees....and it's sat at 17 degrees so alll good. I don't like silicone anything down to be honest.
Ok. I was just stating what I had researched about axlotl care. I'm from the US so I'm not sure what you mean by 17 degrees. Celsius?
@@lovebug9386 yeah in C he's from the UK
I have found my fave channel.
Thank you.
You are a huge inspirer! Thank you for being here at You Tube for us!!! Cool!
lovely paludarium mate.... keep up the good work
Love the progress of your channel! First the small budget tanks and now the large projects.
hallo MD Fish Tank.. I am from Indonesia.. thanks for the inspirations..
I honestly envy the talent you have at scaping! Keep up the great work Bro!
come on. It's easy. chuck some rocks in then some green :)
@@MDFishTanks yeah... yeah... yeeeaaah! If only it was that easy! 😂
Hi MD. The small leaved plant you collected with the moss looks like Hairy Bittercress. It will pop its seeds everywhere & become a nuisance as it does in gardens. Love your enthusiasm.
The hand has a mind of its own lol loving the early Sunday morning upload best way to start the day!!
Admirable! It looks so natural and awesome. Good job! I loved it! I've been wanting to say that now Pancho could be Pancha 😆. And she's going to enjoy her new home very very much.
Wow very inspiring, amazing build i love it!
Awesome video in so many ways!
Fantastic ...MD
thank you
0:42 "… Let's get excited, we just can't hide it
I'm about to lose control and I think I like it
I'm so excited and I just can't hide it
Lalala lala lala..... 🤣😍
Love it! Brilliant!
Looks real natural.
We love late night MD builds 😅
haha. 7am in the uk.
MD Fish Tanks it’s not quite 1 AM here in New Mexico! Time zones are always fascinating to me haha
That's a cracking little setup, well impressed!
.....it should be made law that everyone should watch one of your videos as soon as you wake up.your enthusiasm is infectious.you deserve every bit of success with your channel...and i’ll be coming along for the ride 😁
Just magnificent!!!!
Looks amazing.
Dude that looks freaking awesome!!!!!
Very nice
thank you
He's/she's so cute!🥺its smaller but your oxolotl sure loves it!
theres more swim room than the plant tank but obviously less than the 4ft tank. When I do the 90cm (3 ft tank) it will be perfect I think.
@@MDFishTanks i was very perfect!cute and snuggly
Nice set up with the rocks
That mist! Soooo cool. Nice job MD!
That looks amazing!! Especially love the water mister. We have one in our water feature outside and they really enhance the whole look. 👍🏽👍🏽
You could add some Atya gabonensis in your rainbow river. It’s a perfect shrimp for this aquarium
Wow, love it.
This looks so sick! I'd love to see some clumps of emersed buce to set it off! Thanks for all the inspiration, I'm itching to start a new tank
Thanks for the moss tip! Off on trip to the creek tomorrow
So amazing 😍....so cool penthouse....I want one for me...u r really great...u always doing wonderful job...rocks setup is so beautiful... driftwoods give extraordinary effects...mist maker is awesome...u use moss so beautifully...all tank looks fantastic... keep it up sir ... thanks for sharing the details..u r my favorite...
Keep up the good work MD, just brilliant, love the water fall
That tank is great 👍 looks really natural! When Pancho has grown too big for the tank you should get silvertip tetras
Man this tank is nuts! I love it
