- BOWL AQUARIUM: Desk Lamp & No Filter | MD FISH TANKS
Here is a 2 month update of the bowl aquarium everyone. It is doing insanely well. In this video, we keep on top of the trimming to retain a bit more of a controlled look and also add some of the first livestock.

Would love to see boraras brigettae in it. !! 😃
Now this is something I need together er my hands on . Remodeled my aquarium today . I think I was going to when you were editing this video . Anyway good one I will try to do it . Get some scarlet badis for your ecosystem aquarium .
This set up is so impressive😁👍
Yur red 🔴 betta fish looks wow in that tank... Guess you should add a female betta in that tank
I wish I could have some of your limnophila sessiflora I'm so jealous. I'm in USA and I can't get this plant. Love watching you do your tanks for months. They are so beautiful, I would tell you come over here and do mine :) You have made me want to go back into having things. I have 10gal, a bowl because of you and some small 2.5 gal or 1.5 gal going. I also wish you were on Facebook. I try to learn things all the time with how your doing your scaping. Thanks.
This bowl is, hands down, my favorite aquarium there ❤️🌹!!! Love this video! Thanks MD
These small "ponds" are my absolute favorite aquariums! Thanks to you, Mr. MD, I have 3 that have done very well - one for almost a year. They are quite suitable for filling in spaces and for small apartments. Thank you! Peace and Blessings from Texas USA ♡♡♡
Hey MD,
first of all, thanks for the update. I was really happy to see the bowl going well.
Please keep us updated on it, now that there are shrimps inside i hope they continue to do well.
OMG , two years you have been tanking. The results are amazing and so are you”handsome”. Thnx 4 uploading.
Whenever I see your show , I fee stress free. Thank you a lot.
looking much better MD well done love it
All of your creations are gorgeous!
So amazing bowl...plants are fabulous and beautiful... Shrimps give extra beauty to bowl
I love the tank and the fact that you “looked back” to when you started it. I love shrimp tanks!!
If you're new, don't worry about having an expensive light. Plants in my 30 Gallon tank are gowning like crazy from a $15 US led shop light I got from Home Depot. I also use an $10 led desk lamp from Wal Mart on my terrarium. Both are working great and I couldn't be happier.
Wow! My brain is blown out! It looks cool! I am amazed at how much the plants grow and look so healthy in that little bowl :-)
Yeah it's amazing what you can do cheaply in this hobby. I've had thick hairgrass carpets with a £10 LED light from amazon.
Also can you grow a Madagascar lace plant in a scape? I think that plant looks so cool.
Bowl is looking really good. Nice one getting that UG to grow so well in that kind of setup, it's a tricky plant, it almost looks like riccia from how it's distorted in the view from the bowl, looks really sweet and the foreground in this bowl is top notch. I've got shrimp in my planted bowl same size as this one as well, and 4 ember tetras that love it in there and just go round in circles together.
Thanks for the update. I usually really wonder, what happens to the setups, and this is one is close to the nano I set up recently myself. So: Thanks for that.
used to keep 2-3 liter jars filled with plants/moss, no co2, no filter...no water changes, they were perfect for raising fry, a lot of micro-organisms, no maintenance but they didn't look so fancy as yours :)) Good job!
Totally Awesome!! I tried UG so so many times and failed. I'm gonna try your way! Thanks for sharing!
1. How’s it already been two months & 2. the UG survived and thrived, job well done mate 👍🌱
Excellent video! I loved the tour at the end. Thanks soooooo much for waiting a bit longer to take apart the river tank! 🕊❤🌱❤🕊
I absolutely love all your videos and you have made me get into the fish hobby
Wow MD.. it has been a lot of fun to watch you set up all your aquariums and be able to enjoy them grow everyday!! I love that you always keep us updated and explain all the processes on how you achieve all these fabulous styles of aquariums. 👍😁♥️🐟🌱🌿
Thanks for another great vid and a update on the bowl!
You are really Expert in Aquascaping
Обожаю, Ваши видео! Вы лучший! Аква мастер! 😊
Looks awesome, love the update and love the shrimp
MD great vid, you should incorporate your plaque into an aquascape. Just an idea i don't know if u are willing to
I'm really really impressed with this bowl tank, sir! I love it!!! Great work. If I were a turtle/shrimp/fish/snail I'd want to be in one of your tanks for sure it looks like a bunch of little universes of heaven you've created there!
Awesome aquascape tanks you got there! I have to say, you've inspired me to start a aquascape tank.
I need to tell u this , that ur every single tanks are amazing..!! Awesome 😊😀
I thought bowls are for kids till I watched yours. It's mega cool. Got me thinking... ;-)
love your videos! your tank shed is a very cool idea. thanks for the great content! i am soon remodeling my 5 gallon after your 3 stones no filter scape, and i cant wait until i get all of the supplies to do it. keep up the good work!
I watched this about 2 months ago... you had inspired me to set up one. 🙏🏽
Looks great! What a great idea just using a desk lamp! Unfortunately for me, all my planted tanks get an algae problem. 🤷🏼♀️ love the shrimp! ☺️
love your vids you always upload so awesome love it and your videos are long congrats you should have over 1 million subs your so good.
Yay!!! I was hoping for a part two!!! =)
Thank you. Ive been trying to find some information on how to properly clean a filter free tank and get any floaty pieces out. Its surprising how hard it is to find that answer!
Think sumdin else needs a trim.... Ha love the hard work.... Always great to learn something new
always impressed Sir!!!;SUPER JELLY- I hate how easy this is for you. those of us with out "lucky water" envy you. Seriously there is no way i could get away with just that small of a water change on ANY of my nano tanks, never mind a bowl.
Nice bowl aquascape
Loved the vid 👍
Awesome looking. Who the hell needs ada
Hey MD, love your no filter tanks. You inspired me to build one myself. One question: how much do you feed the shrimps in these tanks?
Alright! That's it, I'm gonna set up a bowl too!!!
Long time listener... first time caller! Love your content! If you invested in some smart plugs then Alexa could turn the tank lights on or off for you... No more glare!
Low level of light but for longer time periods. I took that with me, will see how it goes in my tank.
Can't decide what scapes are better, your tanks or your beard (seriously jealous). Thanks for sharing your hard work.
The Ram tank is on point
Newbie here! How do I refresh my water if I don’t have a big set up like yours i can borrow from. I KNOW it can’t be straight from a tap...so where/how then?...I just love the whole underwater garden/ water ecosystem thing. It’s just amazing
Nicely done! ✅
Pebbles be lookin cool like you mate
That is spot on MD.....awsome
I'm going to do one of these small aquariums, but I'm going to use a heater. Otherwise I'll have to worry about the whole room being at a temperate right for the plants to grow.
This is an awesome bowl! How often do you do water refreshes?
im new here and i gota say that's a fine collection you have there, pretty cool! feel like getting a bowl set up like the one you have here as my 1st tank
This is really cool and gives a great perspective of what maybe someone could do as a beginner betta bowl opposed to a cup that petco would sell you 😂
You shouldn’t keep bettas in bowls, you’d need something bigger for a betta 😁
I think that a Betta or some Neon tetra would look awesome in that tank. The tank does look awesome 👏
This is way to small for a betta! But maybe 1 or 2 neons would be okay 😁
I have almost the same betta! Great videos love the content keep up the great work
Aww look at Mike and his MASSIVE moss bed.
Looking too good Sir.
I've a same empty bowl.
I will follow your way but here is confusion to collect underwater plant on this lockdown time.
Oh wow
Love your bowl :-D
The globe has always been my favorite MD tank. When I first saw it, I started pulling together items to make my own. FYI your links for Amazon U.S. glass globe not viable. For those in US looking for big glass bowl, I can suggest Events Warehouse. They have a big bowl of the same size...(shipping insane $$$ and crazily you have to buy two) beautiful crystal clear. They also have a ten gallon one that I have been eyeing. Also:the MD link to light on Amazon U.S.:that light is too short for the globe fat least for the one I got). I have been using clip on lights from Amazon 18 inch tall (Extractme LED Lamp Clip Light, 10w...). It's only pluggable by USB. Its.been good for plant growth, although have to find something to clip to. Using the same light for three planted projects.
Always love the content
great timing! the video of you making this was the first video i ever watched from you, then i saw there was an update... yesterday? great! oof ummm
i would love if you did for the cleaning and faster bits, if you took out the music and turned up the volume of like snipping the stuff. (sorry for bad english)
Wonderful and outstanding work
Hello md love the vids I just think they are so creative 😍
Awesome video bud!
Nice video mate, think I might have to get some shrimp soon they look fun :)
You should add Thai micro crabs. Those little dudes are so cool.
Incredible! Algae is a nightmare for me at the moment!
I had a similar problem about 6 months ago. Opted to put six nerite snails and a dozen cherry shrimp and within six weeks most of it was gone. I’ve since upgraded all my tanks and they’ve resolved all my algae issues. I wish I’d known about them years ago!
WAZZA MD MY MAN!!!
@MD Fish Tanks, wow you have managed utricularia to grow and to develop. It's amazing!!! Many professionals have a BIG PROBLEM with this plant.
Would highly recommend u make a video of the reef tank if you still have it if not you should totally make a series or a single vid of setting one up I know your a freshwater guy but awhile ago you had a reef tank vid and it looked gorgeous plz bring it back
And soft Water helps to!
I have a similar bowl with grass snails and scuds. Thinking of adding nano fish.
Hello, I really want to build one, but I'm not too sure how to maintain it, and do I still need to feed the fish. I'm very new to all this and would like some help or possibly a video on how to do this.
Do you fertilize with liquid fertilizer? Thank you:)
Also. I LOVE "Snaous" as well. I got some blue Avatar "Horn" Snails, dont know how you call them.
Beautiful 👍🐠🍀🌿
LOVELY! But with no algae will you need to feed the shrimp?
Are there any concerns about there being no water movement?
How do you keep the water temperature to an ideal in the bowl without a heater?
I'm literally about to walk down to a neighbors to see if they'd sell me this biorb aquarium that's been sitting in their garden for a couple of months to build something like this, wish me luck 🤞
Can fish survive in the bowl ??? If so how long ?? And how often do u have to change the water if fish are in it ??
Do you add any liquid ferts or excel
Looking great! I'm looking forward to start a bowl soon. Any fertilizer used other than the dirt?
Loved it... Subscribed
hello!! great video, for how long do you have the lights on?
Awesome job, nice update video I was wondering when you where going to add livestock too that tank.
Love this bowl! Is a heater necessary? Or does the lamp provide enough heat?
what kind of fish do you recommend you can put in it?
MD great video. What food you use for shrimp? And can you do a video about shrimp keeping. Thank you
Could you put shrimp in that bowl? Also, what do they eat?
Do we need to cover the no filter tanks?? Please ans
Very good 👍
This is so cool
I want to learn more about planted aquariums, more about plant types, lighting, plant food
MD, nice video
I think a major part in the sucess with this style of tank and isnt mentioned enough is the quality of local water.
What sort of light bulb do you use in the bowl?
