The time has come to make a change in the Rainbowfish aquarium...which should actually be known more accurately as "the moss tank" 🤣. What is it going to look like with all the moss stripped back...am I going to keep it more to the point...

#plantedtank #aquascape #mdfishtanks
your work has really inspired me. i'm upgrading from a 55 gal to a 75 gal, and i'll be using all your tricks and tips in the aquascape.
the best planted tank channel on YT, without any doubt. no pretensions, no geek speak, no "you must..." it's so encouraging to see this kind of wonderful plant growth without CO2 and hi tech gadgetry... brilliant
I do like SerpaDesign too...l reckon they'd be great friends along with Matt...😁
Nothing better than seeing an MD upload when down in the dumps. Cheers me right up :)
Hoping you'll feel better soon ♥️
Hope things turn around for you soon, this too will pass ❤️
Troooooooo 💓💓💓
What ever it is I hope you turn things around soon mate.
Agree.
imagine a moss-only scape, with super thin branches so the moss can’t get as large and just an entire background of flowing moss. could make it a high flow setup to help combat the detritus getting stuck in the moss
Yes like a hanging wall of moss and Shrimps!
Yeah I want to do a tank setup with riccia moss as the background instead of using paint for the back of the glass
This man is so underrated on UA-cam MD your a legend and thanks to you my tanks are just like yours clean simple but amazing keep up the brilliant work with your tanks
Great update. I think that rainbowfish scape idea with the multiple islands for them to swim through/around is a stellar idea. Not a very common scape, so I'm interested in how you will do that. When I build the motivation to rescape my 75 gallon I'll definitely use your deep substrate method. I think it just helps everything from the plants to the fish. Appreciate all that I learn from you, MD. Take care.
I love the moss but yeah it was the right call, it was taking over the tank.
MD's attack on the Monster Moss was a long time coming. I knew you would not be able to resist doing the tank over. The Rainbows look amazing and I am sure they will thrive in the new setup. You have so many plants you won't need to buy any and the colors and shapes you have give you plenty to choose from.
I'm looking forward to both builds as your Beta is stunning.
What's the name of the moss growing on the wood? Thank you
Really glad to hear that we’re going to get to see these Rainbows grow and mature for a while longer. The best is yet to come for them!
I think I would actually like to see you cut back an over grown tank and show the process of bringing one back to life without ripping everything out and trimming it up.
Agreed. Would be interesting to see you try to turn that scape around without a complete tear down.
The thing is with this one is that the structure is what's taking most of the space. The wood covers all areas and that's what needs sorting. To do that, it's a case of starting again by the time you have taken out all the hardscape.
It doesn’t have to be this tank specifically can be any other it’s just another idea that a lot of us new/ hobbie tank guys would like to see what’s involved in that aspect of owning a tank.
So many good tanks on the way. I know there are a lot of viewers who are wishing you'd leave your tanks up but I love the fact that you break them down after 6 months or so. It gives you tons of experience, content, and endless ideas for different setups. Can't wait to see...
As always, cheers MD.
Wow, all your tanks look great and that too without CO2, amazing how your plants look colourful without it. How do you manage...love your videos.
I'm 42 years old and after watching your channel I've decided gonna build myself an aquarium for the first time. Keep up good work you do !!
If you get the time, could we get a Timelapse of a tank growing? Like the plants growing in a Timelapse as it’s own video?
Love that you gave the fidh more room. Yes the moss was beautiful..now you got lovely acclimatised moss to use in other tanks...what about a mossy hanging wall tank for your shrimp?
Glad you got rid of the moss, started to look way too crowded. Looking forward to seeing the new setup.
Cheers🥃🇦🇺
You are such a legend! I have learnt so much from you. I picked up 3 otocinclus today to put in one of my tanks, I wouldn't have known what they were if I didn't watch your vids....Clean up crew is a must in all tanks. Thankyou and keep them coming
As always, another great video.
As you surmised, the tipburn on your Spathiphyllum probably has a lot to do with the light, but it also wouldn’t be my first choice to grow in water like that. If Colocasias are available where you live, try them out. I think you’ll find they’re super easy, low maintenance plants that thrive in that kind of setup, plus they look really cool. I grow a variety called ‘Mojito’ that’s stunning. Look it up and you’ll see what I mean.
Anyway, keep it up!
well done on the moss growth regardless of whats happened to it. do you put it down to good lighting, good water and leaf zone?
Was just looking for a video to watch while scaping my new tank, and there you were MD!👍🏻😁🐟🌱
baby guppies stay at the surface for a few days/weeks when first born ... I provide floating plants for them to hide in ... eventually they will hide in the lower plants.
A beautiful, natural looking aquarium. Please let me know if this cleaner is safe and effective, i.e. does it not cause scratches in the aquarium?
TWO build videos coming up???
Oh you spoil us MD 😂
Loved the video as I do with all of your stuff, still hoping you will update on the tank you tried pond soil as a substrate.
the way the fish went. Oh it's go time! as soon as the filter was turned on!
Hi MD, do the rainbowfish eat more then the regular fish because they 'waste' so much energy on the high flow?
Everything’s looking amazing MD! You ever thought of doing a celestial pearl danios scape!? Keep up the awesome content! 👍
Which camera do you use . means seriously the clarity and colours 😱😱😱😱
Off topic but do you do any kind of maintenance on your plant storage tanks? Possible video on how you got them up and running?
What type of moss was this? Looked beautiful.
I'm trying to build a tank on a budget and today got se moss growing near a stream.i will hopefully use it in my tank.
I loved the way that moss was out of control 🤣
What I would like to see is someone copy exactly one of the tanks, but in a hard water area. That way we can see the difference between hard and soft water.
I found it nigh on impossible without a lot of intensive water changes, blending tap and rain water, testing heavily etc. Much easier just to lightly dose CO2!
The internal filters you use. What watts are they? I kno you have links posted by they just take you to the page. Then it gives you options of different ones. Also I'm from Canada, can't get same ones as you. Think I found one very similar and it comes in 3.5w, 5w, 7w, and 10w.
Was finna comment how good the electric blue acara tank looks, but after you showed a couple other tanks during the video, I thought damn all of your tanks look so cool, so many different elements in the tank for the fishes to enjoy. You're so good at it!
make the new rainbow tank like your old river tank with the island in the middle so it can flow in a circle around the tank that old river island tank was my favorite
Do something different this time for the Beta Aquarium! I love your videos but me and maybe some followers would like to see some different setup, maybe a "desert" theme, reds, yellows, white or red sand, black or red rocks, i dont know! I just think it would look cool :D Once again, thank you for your videos i really find your voice and your videos relaxing :D Keep up with the good work.
I think it's the 5th time I comment 🤣 where is Timmy!?
Learning loads. My thanks at home is so much healthier💪🎉thank you!
What did you make the hook you use to fill aquariums so the water pressure doesn’t shoot down into the substrate?
Hi MD, could you please put some cheery chrimp with the beta, I think it would be a nice detail.
Thanks
They would probably be eaten by the betta 🦐🍽😕
The green bowl made me laugh out loud XD
Excellent stress reliever
That tank at the shop came out amazing wow! That’s a perfect scape of what I would love to have myself , I may do that as well thank you! 😄
Absolutely love this build! You inspired me to make a beautiful planted tank and it’s given me infinite joy ever since! Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us MD!!!!!!!!!!!! 😎
Its going to take me a few days to get over the trauma. I loved that moss.
I want to buy this amazing moss, but I do not know it's name.
@@karocicaoo
@@ALEX-dm6su ??
@@karocica Its weeping moss
Where do you get those things that hold your lights higher above your tank? What exactly are they called?
Looking forward to the next set up
Please get some newts or some special of amphibian. Love your stuff keep up the great work.
you had to do it for the space and it makes sense but still rip beautiful moss
agree fpr tear down. she done! excited to see more suited rainbow tank. was beautiful to start tho
Great video ~ Really, really LOVE the white dumbo betta !!!
❤
MD when are we getting a killifish setup! 😬😬😬 cant stop thinking about that australes!
I saw this tank when you first planted it. What are you doing to get that moss growing so well?
Where can I get one of the attachments you use to fill your tanks? Thanks!
New build! New build!
Great update video! I can't wait to see the new builds for the rainbow fish and betta!
Stirling moss !
I literally just bought some JavaMoss the other day because I wanted the look you had lol.
I did a dry start with chopped fissidens moss on my lava rock and its impossible to get rid of now. I love the look of it but It completely covered the rock and I miss the brown color of the rick to offset some of the green
I literally took one of the rocks out and threw it in the oven for an hour and it still grew back in a couple weeks…
Would love to see like a 6ftx2ft or like and 8x2 done by you for rainbows and just have a huge school in there playing in the flow
how many power outlets does he have to run so many tanks
I was worried what the tank would look like when you cut that moss back but I actually much prefer it now. It looks fantastic
How do you deal with that algae weird stuff on a driftwood piece
He’s literally Answered like 10 times
Depends what u mean by algae stuff 🤔
It goes away
You deserve a million subs. Your Aquarium’s look amazing!!
When someone mentions pearl weed first thing that pops in my mind is MD 🤣
How often should I be feeding my mini school of neon tetras? I have about 20
In Australia one golf ball portion of Java moss is $20
This Video is good for me, Thanks for sharing.
You make another shrimp tank using all that moss. Use it to make a moss wall across the back of the tank.
Yo man, been a fan for a long time of how you set up your tanks. BUT, I would love to see you do one high tech tank with CO2 just to see how it goes using your same substrate system strategies, fertilizing, etc. Cheers!
You can't be a very good fan because he has done all that just not all on one tank because he can't keep up with the growth now so why would he make it be daily trims?
@@sih3725 pretty rude of you first off. Second I said one tank to experiment with.
I knew once you cut that moss out...Time for a new scape.
👍❤👍
So excited to see you do your new Ideas for your tanks keep up the awesome work
Wow .... what a transformation .... love the new scape
The betta is a platinum dumbo HMPK (halfmoon plakat) ;)
On your next tank over 80 liters you could possibly do a betta sorority that would be very interesting for me and many other ppl
Moss so healthy 😍
How much for you to ship moss? Man it looks so good I’d buy it lol. The fish seem to like it out
I really hope you do a altolamprologus black calvus tank!
I really love the rainbows though, probably my favourite of all aquarium hobby fish.
man... i love your work, but i hate that you take down takes after a couple of months. the longer a tank is set up, the more stable it becomes. your water is so good, i would back off on the light a bit to reduce growth and therefore less trimming. you build beautiful tanks.
I appreciate where you are coming from. But it's been up for 5 months and if it was a display in a home....for sure it's something you would keep going. But my tanks are my studio remember. They are my canvas. When the painting is complete, you don't keep wiping away the paint and re-applying, you start another piece of your art. Hope you understand 😊
@@MDFishTanks yeah. i get it. totally different application. just breaks my heart to see such lovely works of art get dismantled. though, i totally agree with the lessons learned. no more pearl weed! lol. and yeah. moss got out of hand in the rainbow tank.
MD, it is true that the viewers come to see how to set up tanks and watch you create, but (I’m sure you have noticed) they also like to see updates on the progression of the tanks. Since most of us are not redoing our tanks after a few months, we would like to see long term and how the tank transforms over time. That itself is also rewarding for all involved. Just one to watch for the long haul might make everyone/most happy. By the way, how’s Timmy?
I am so interested to know what species of moss is that because I want some for my tank.
The moss looks like the boar god from Princess Mononoke 🤓
Iwagumi style next for the rainbow fish?
What kind of miss was that you removed?
If you ever see upper Katherine rainbows buy some instantly, stunning fish.
omg I want that THICK moss blob!!
Been looking forward to seeing that moss trimmed but the time lapse?! 😩
Hey MD what's that light on the beta fish tank? It looks real nice
You never stopped entertaining us ❤️
Looking forward to your next non simple tank with a million plants!!! Btw it is totally your fault I’m currently cramming a fourth tank into my one bedroom apartment
Hi MD what type of moss is this please ??
White Betta swimming through a forrest of red plants 👀
I would love to see you try something different! Be interesting to see you try an iwagumi or diorama style aqua scape
hes done it
Dude if my moss became like yours i will never trim it hahahahaa
Its so beautiful like that
Me: its been 3 months, Why aren't my plants growing?!
MD: Hold my moss😅
very beautiful alvaria
May I know what moss species is that MD?
Don’t just throw it away I actually beg. That is so glorious. I would purchase it.
You could do a dutch style scape on this
those colombians are basically bigger than the neons! no way they can get picked off now 😂
