Thanks for another great video, it was a lot of fun to watch both of you have such a great time doing what you love. I was wondering why you haven't used clown pleco in the clean up crew? They stay nice and small.
Just wanted to tell you that I was “this close” to quitting the hobby, I just had no inspiration but I watched a few (more like a lot) of your vids and now I have bought a new tank and back in full in the hobby. Just a big thank you from me. 😊
You Guys Make Me Happy To See Your Friendship. Wishing For The Entire World To Live Learn And Laugh Like This. Thanks for being here Matt. The Scape Rocks. Stay Safe And Stay Blessed 😎
Y'all are having so much fun 😂😂 you should generate a QR code to link to the build video and post it by the tank for customers to see the walk through!
MD , you ABSOLUTELY need a Go pro & we ABSOLUTELY need underwater footage from every tank! This would be a great idea for shorts & some weekly underwater treats for your viewers!!
This was really fun. I definitely want updates on this tank. You and Matt had a bit of a laugh throughout, which was fun to see. Thanks MD. Great Saturday morning content.
First time ever commenting on the page. I gotta say it’s so nice to have a different perspective the actual scaping. Usually we see from your POV. Must say it’s so exhilarating to see you so excited running around like a child in a candy store! Kudos to Matt as the cameraman as well. Best video yet! Lotsa of love from Singapore 🇸🇬🤙🏽🤙🏽
Gotta say MD, this is probably one of my favorite videos you have made. I really loved the GoPro idea and will be looking forward to that perspective on your future videos. I’m hoping they have you aquascape another 10 tanks in their shop. Greetings from San Diego, California.
There's no question MD, a GoPro is definitely the next step up for your channel! Omg I just lost it when I saw the underwater footage from Matt.. WOW. Just when you think you've seen it all in this channel, MD surprises you again. CANNOT get enough of this content!
If you got an underwater go pro, it would be amazing to have a 24h live dedicated to it as the old 'screen saver' type video. I would watch it forever and love it! I'd be mesmerized by all the fish in the tank, no matter which one you set up. And it would give a new depth to everything you do. Thank you for sharing these videos and the love you have for this art with us, and thank you to Matt and everyone else at Maidenhead Aquatics for doing the same as well as teaching us at the same time. May this find you all well.
Did you guys have an itemized sheet for this build? I think it would be helpful to know a list of what all went into the tank, what was purchasable in the store vs what wasn't, and what the total cost was. I think it helps set expectations for potential hobbyists when they see a tank like this and can know what all goes into it and approximate cost. Whenever I visit local fish stores and look at display tanks I always wonder what it costs to set something like that up but I've never seen anyone with a detailed sheet to their tank. Even if you don't have that info here on this video, having a sheet in the store would be cool for the customers to read.
The problem with cost videos is that some dont translate worldwide especially when you think of MD's audience and the video ages very fast due to price fluctuations and new stuff coming onto the market. Keep watching the video and get the views up 🙃🙃😊
Wouldn't get much change from £2000 the tank is £750, filter £350, light £230, plants aquascape etc easy £200... Fish another £250 (prices depends on the individual store)
@@kevinlock3179 you have a good point about prices, that makes sense. I think the bigger point for me is the itemized list. I like to view aquarium builds kind of like custom desktop PC tower builds. So for example if you were creating a custom PC (aquarium) on like newegg you'd have a componentized list with things like: case (tank) cpu (filter) memory (heater) harddisk (light) graphics (substrate) power supply (hardscape) motherboard (plants) etc. Anyway analogy aside, I am always interested in seeing the specifications of a display tank but I haven't been to a store that has one. I think it would be very informative and educational if builds like this had a spec sheet accompanying it. It may only interest a niche audience though, and if so that is fine, I can understand leaving it out. However I'd always be interested in seeing a spec sheet (and preferably with prices, but we already discussed that). Kind of a different point, but I also think it would be cool if there was a website that helped you plan your new aquarium. Kind of like newegg's custom PC builder, but for aquariums. Probably a combination of sites like ScapeIt, AqAdvisor, and a newegg equivalent for aquariums. (EDIT: also may be worth mentioning CustomAquariums, they have a Configurator that is probably the closest thing I've seen to newegg's custom PC builder)
Shout out to Matt for being a good friend and allowing you to showcase your talents!! This is one of my dreams honestly, to create (e)scapes for other people. Alot of inspiration from this one. Good job my guy 💪
MDFishTanks, I have got to write to thank you and @Fish Shop Matt. It’s been a rough year with medical school (well, the politics of it, not the school part) and I recently stumbled on your channels. I have learned SO MUCH from you both and you guys have such a wonderful friendship. If I hadn’t seen some of your earlier videos I’d have sworn you were friends for decades. Having worked as a ‘frontline’ healthcare worker through the pandemic and sacrificed the last two years of my life in medical school it’s been really easy to forget what life is actually about. The joy you guys are clearly experiencing doing what you love and do with such consummate skill is reaffirming for me. The tanks you build are absolutely BREATHTAKING, the most aesthetically pleasing I’ve ever seen (so much so that my strong itch to try saltwater when I move for my clinical rotations may actually be overtaken by trying to mimic one of your tanks). I’ve prided myself on my aquarium for the past four years; having seen your videos I can’t help but laugh at how mine looks in comparison. Next time I venture to your side of the Atlantic I would LOVE to come see the shop and the studio. I love your passion for this hobby and your eagerness to share your incredible knowledge with people. I’ve sent my mother some of your videos and now she wants to restart her 45-gallon. As ridiculous as I am sure this reads: your fish videos are actually helping me through a tough time. Well done building you careers out of something you love-that is SUCCESS. Best Wishes to you both and sincerest thanks for making such entertaining and educational videos. -MD student (who only has one fish tank... for now Lol)
Fun fact! The two live plants on the outside of the tank, are two samples of Cissus Rhombifolia 'Ellen Danica', my great grandfather was the one to first create the hybrid, naming it after my great grandma Ellen, and his country Denmark, thereof it being called Ellen Danica. I still have one of the original specimens he kept, as a centerpiece in my living room❤
This was one of my favorite videos! You guys interact well with each other, really makes the video entertaining lol. The gopro shot in the tank was AWESOME!! Really want to try this as well in our tanks! You are 100% correct, it really gives you a good look at the environment. Great video MD!
Easy my favourite channel on UA-cam, can’t believe how much you’ve grown. I’ve been watching for a good few years now and it’s great to see how well you’re doing
Found this channel a week ago. These two are nicest people on UA-cam. Hopefully they will continue to make collaboration videos even though they've gone separate ways
I absolutely luv this tank! Watching the school traverse the entire length of the aquascape is beautiful 🤩. The underwater video was awesome! Yes get a GoPro for your studio tanks! How about Matt mounts a monitor over the tank with your video playing on a constant loop! Frances
This is easily one of the best videos yet. Somehow you've managed to make a fantastic tank while having so much fun. Would love to see you two build more tanks
I am so happy I've found your channel. I'm a German woman. Herzliche Grüße 😉 Not only do I like the British English very much and mostly second your style to do aquaristic, I also feel entertained and informated. Last but not least, I like you guys very much. Fangirling here wooohooo. You've got a friend here 😁
Popped into the store this morning, and fair to say the tank looks incredible. The shop had only been open 10 mins and all the fish were hiding, bar a few panda Cory's! Didn't realise there were apistos in there as hadn't watched this video yet! Good reason to go in and stare at it some more 😍
This was very fun to watch and I vote for the go pro addition... This tank will be a big responsibility! When it goes through some of those weird early phases, you will have to be on top of it... One thing is to have it in your studio, a totally different thing is to have is as a showcase at the store! Keep us updated!
Love the choice of corys, pandas are always cute and fun to watch. The green neons are also beautiful and I love a big , natural shoal . Great to see you both work together and share advices.
Awesome job as always, MD. Love the giant shoals of single species of fish. The gopro sounds like a great idea, I like how it looked underwater. Keep up the great work. Take care.
This is the video that the hobby needed and no one knew it! My favorite videos are when the creators have fun, and the fun here is contagious. Thank you, so much!
The tank looks spectacular. Definitely grab a GoPro for inside shots! It'll be cool to see a montage of shots throughout the tanks at your studio. You guys are a barrel of laughs. You can tell there is genuine good feeling when you guys hang out. More fish! Cheers MD & Matt.
If I was back home in Somerset then I'd definitely be visiting this aquatics centre. The quality and care they put into this shop is wonderful. Thanks for all your inspiring videos!
One of your most fun videos to watch to tuis date, and im a follower from the backyard shack days before 50k subscribers, so thats saying something. Keep it up MD
Absolutely brilliant! I'm a big fan of the island scapes, and I like that Matt decided to go with wild type fish (also my personal preference). Also love the longer video with the shenanigans. Can't wait for Matt's next video! And why does it feel like "The Jacket" is quickly becoming his trademark? 😂 Love it! Cheers from Texas!
This video was by far one of the best! Laughed right along with you guys. I loved the one that Matt came to visit your studios but this was primo! I love the camaraderie & friendship between you and Matt! It’s such a pleasure watching you both totally enjoying this hobby. A beautiful scape and I’d love to have a fish shop like this in NH USA. Can’t wait to see how this tank looks in a month after plants fill in. A great welcoming piece to anyone entering into Maidenhead Aquatics! Keep up the great content MD and so glad you have good friends like Matt to share the hobby with. You guys are great! Thanks for entertaining us & yet always also informative content!
Love Matt's sense of humor with the fish jacket 🤣 The tank and selection of fish came out stunning! MD has reached another level as he progresses at such a quick rate. This was a great video, always really nice seeing you guys getting together to make these videos.
nice to see you taking the time to do a scape for the store you shop from, your getting a name now but nice to see that you remember the people that clearly support you👍
I fell in love with the green neon after taking in 5 from a friend. A month later I went and got 15 more . They really stand out in the early morning / evening when lights are coming on / turning off
Just a thought. If Matt (or even you with one of your tanks) could work out a way to have a 24hr channel simply showing the fish in the tank via the GoPro, it is absolutely amazing and it would be always changing. The sort of channel you could leave on when you're out for your cat/dog to watch, or to put on in your child's room at night as a sort of backdrop to help them sleep, or even in your room. Very peaceful and relaxing and ideal to watch last thing at night, especially for insomniacs or anyone who has trouble sleeping (thinking elderly, disabled, ill etc). Would love to subscribe if he can, would definitely have it showing on my laptop all day, just so relaxing to watch them.
I wish I had this solid oak tank at home 😂 I loved this build bc I adore green neons, cardinal neons as well. Pretty much all the slim body neon tetras, lol.

Wow nice shop😍
What was the volume of the tank displayed in this video?
Video 15 of asking for a tank with some freshwater dolphinfish please.
Just wanted to tell you that I was “this close” to quitting the hobby, I just had no inspiration but I watched a few (more like a lot) of your vids and now I have bought a new tank and back in full in the hobby. Just a big thank you from me. 😊
😂 nice 🎶
Watching these grown men giggle their way through a project is pure joy. 😁
I like how much longer this is than a normal build video due to all the shenanigans 🤪 it’s great : )
THIS was sooo much fun to watch!! smilled all the way till the end. MAKE MORE OF THESE !!!
I totally agree this video made me smile there was just something so genuine about this video
Second this
You Guys Make Me Happy To See Your Friendship. Wishing For The Entire World To Live Learn And Laugh Like This. Thanks for being here Matt. The Scape Rocks. Stay Safe And Stay Blessed 😎
This tank is unreal. MD you should really look into becoming someone who builds tanks for customers
Y'all are having so much fun 😂😂 you should generate a QR code to link to the build video and post it by the tank for customers to see the walk through!
I love the set up and the fish look stunning. Large groups of school fish are my favorite. 🐟❤️🐠
MD , you ABSOLUTELY need a Go pro & we ABSOLUTELY need underwater footage from every tank!
This would be a great idea for shorts & some weekly underwater treats for your viewers!!
I can't believe Matt doesn't carry super glue in his shop. Great scape!
This was just so much fun to watch! And the end result is amazing! Love the big shoal of green neons!
Argghhhh I'm working and it's busy, I'll have to watch it later!!! Lots of people loving it in the shop!
awesome mate. Watch it with the wife and some popcorn. Had such good fun over the 2 days. Thank for having me :D
This is fish tank building gold. I love it. The setup is brilliant. As well as the back and forth with matt was mega fun to watch.

I just love this collaboration and the set up. You two are the Abbott and Costello of the world of aquatics 😂
You and Matt make a wonderful pair the way you work together am seriously enjoying watching this. Love Matt's jacket

MDFishTanks, I have got to write to thank you and @Fish Shop Matt. It’s been a rough year with medical school (well, the politics of it, not the school part) and I recently stumbled on your channels. I have learned SO MUCH from you both and you guys have such a wonderful friendship. If I hadn’t seen some of your earlier videos I’d have sworn you were friends for decades. Having worked as a ‘frontline’ healthcare worker through the pandemic and sacrificed the last two years of my life in medical school it’s been really easy to forget what life is actually about. The joy you guys are clearly experiencing doing what you love and do with such consummate skill is reaffirming for me.
The tanks you build are absolutely BREATHTAKING, the most aesthetically pleasing I’ve ever seen (so much so that my strong itch to try saltwater when I move for my clinical rotations may actually be overtaken by trying to mimic one of your tanks). I’ve prided myself on my aquarium for the past four years; having seen your videos I can’t help but laugh at how mine looks in comparison. Next time I venture to your side of the Atlantic I would LOVE to come see the shop and the studio.
I love your passion for this hobby and your eagerness to share your incredible knowledge with people. I’ve sent my mother some of your videos and now she wants to restart her 45-gallon. As ridiculous as I am sure this reads: your fish videos are actually helping me through a tough time.
Well done building you careers out of something you love-that is SUCCESS.
Best Wishes to you both and sincerest thanks for making such entertaining and educational videos.
-MD student (who only has one fish tank... for now Lol)
Fun fact! The two live plants on the outside of the tank, are two samples of Cissus Rhombifolia 'Ellen Danica', my great grandfather was the one to first create the hybrid, naming it after my great grandma Ellen, and his country Denmark, thereof it being called Ellen Danica. I still have one of the original specimens he kept, as a centerpiece in my living room❤

Look at you in your element/happy place ... total kid in a candy store energy! Beautiful scape, design, planting and Shoal!
The GoPro inside the tank was actually really cool
I wish I had a fish store like this where I live
17:45 - 18:05 was absolutely hilarious “Gluuuee” 😂 what a great duo you guys make. I watched this clip like 10 times
Watching you guys from Australia 🇦🇺 I watched the videos twice fascinated
I like when matt was filming. He's a good camera man and commentary
You two have amazing chemistry together! I love your videos MD, you should do more videos with Matt too 🥰😊
This is easily one of the best videos yet.
Somehow you've managed to make a fantastic tank while having so much fun. Would love to see you two build more tanks
You guys bring a smile to my face every time! Love the build and choice of fish! 💕
I am so happy I've found your channel. I'm a German woman. Herzliche Grüße 😉 Not only do I like the British English very much and mostly second your style to do aquaristic, I also feel entertained and informated. Last but not least, I like you guys very much. Fangirling here wooohooo. You've got a friend here 😁
hearing these two laugh with each other fills my heart with joy
Popped into the store this morning, and fair to say the tank looks incredible. The shop had only been open 10 mins and all the fish were hiding, bar a few panda Cory's! Didn't realise there were apistos in there as hadn't watched this video yet! Good reason to go in and stare at it some more 😍

One of your better tanks. Not all over planted like you tend to do. Green neon tetras are one of my favorite fish, I have some myself. Great job!! 🙃 💕
Watched this one twice and laughed just as much the second time. Great pairing of people, fish, plants and hard scape. The tank looks great.
Love the choice of corys, pandas are always cute and fun to watch.
The green neons are also beautiful and I love a big , natural shoal . Great to see you both work together and share advices.
Thanks for all the great content MD!
maybe put a little qr code on the side so guests can scan it and watch this video and learn more about setting up scapes :)
15 seconds in and “the jacket” has already made an appearance, it’s gonna be a great one haha!
Awesome job as always, MD. Love the giant shoals of single species of fish. The gopro sounds like a great idea, I like how it looked underwater. Keep up the great work. Take care.
You two are a blast to watch! Do more together.
Definitely going to need Go Pro shots from all of your tanks now!
Matt's a great addition to your content, your humor bounces back and forth so well. Damn fine video.
So fun to build a tank right in the shop with matt! Looked like lots of fun
This is the video that the hobby needed and no one knew it!
My favorite videos are when the creators have fun, and the fun here is contagious.
Thank you, so much!
Ah yes comedy and aquascaping. Beautifully done 👌
Every aquascapers dream right here! Unlimited access to your favorite fish store. 👍
More and more I like the look of the all clear aquarium with no wood borders
The tank looks spectacular. Definitely grab a GoPro for inside shots! It'll be cool to see a montage of shots throughout the tanks at your studio.
You guys are a barrel of laughs. You can tell there is genuine good feeling when you guys hang out.
More fish!
Cheers MD & Matt.
If I was back home in Somerset then I'd definitely be visiting this aquatics centre.
The quality and care they put into this shop is wonderful.
Thanks for all your inspiring videos!
One of your most fun videos to watch to tuis date, and im a follower from the backyard shack days before 50k subscribers, so thats saying something. Keep it up MD
You have come a long way brother! So proud to be a part of your Journey!!!!
A little moss on the big branch might’ve looked nice but this is a brilliant scape!
How do you come up with such great ideas? I love this aquascape. Always love you MD Fish Tanks. You’re one wonderful guy. 💚💚
There is nothing more fun than setting up new tanks and watching MD do it as well.
Absolutely brilliant! I'm a big fan of the island scapes, and I like that Matt decided to go with wild type fish (also my personal preference). Also love the longer video with the shenanigans. Can't wait for Matt's next video! And why does it feel like "The Jacket" is quickly becoming his trademark? 😂 Love it! Cheers from Texas!
This was great to watch. A few of these more casual, one-day videos are fun to watch every now and then.
I admit - your bromance is super fun to watch!
Wow, spectacular as always. Two peas in a pod. You are great company.
17:30 is so funny. Are they brothers? Great video. It was so fun to watch.
This video was by far one of the best! Laughed right along with you guys. I loved the one that Matt came to visit your studios but this was primo! I love the camaraderie & friendship between you and Matt! It’s such a pleasure watching you both totally enjoying this hobby. A beautiful scape and I’d love to have a fish shop like this in NH USA. Can’t wait to see how this tank looks in a month after plants fill in. A great welcoming piece to anyone entering into Maidenhead Aquatics! Keep up the great content MD and so glad you have good friends like Matt to share the hobby with. You guys are great! Thanks for entertaining us & yet always also informative content!
This was a really fun video lol I like the "less professional" style of filming. Great work!
Love Matt's sense of humor with the fish jacket 🤣 The tank and selection of fish came out stunning! MD has reached another level as he progresses at such a quick rate. This was a great video, always really nice seeing you guys getting together to make these videos.
Really beautiful! Can be done on a tighter budget and for a smaller abode!! Love it!!
I love the professional production on this
Out of the videos you've done, this one is a recent favorite of mine.
Keep up the great work. The fun you guys had comes through brilliantly!
Just got to take a moment to shout out Matt for drinking the sneak! And brilliant build
So cool that MD did a scape for the store! Will def help sales when people see how nice their tanks can look
nice to see you taking the time to do a scape for the store you shop from, your getting a name now but nice to see that you remember the people that clearly support you👍
The interior shot was awesome, so are the green neons.
Should do more with Matt lmao I smiled the whole time lol
These two guys together is a lot of fun and the result is great !!!
the bettas in the nice proper sized tanks rather than plastic cups 😭 makes my heart glad!!!
Fun video. You and the shop owner should take your act on the road. LOL
Im from Philippines and i always watch your videos but this the most beautiful and my most favorite haha… so much fun to watch
This is like carry on aquascapeing, funny but very enjoyable. Loved It.
I fell in love with the green neon after taking in 5 from a friend. A month later I went and got 15 more . They really stand out in the early morning / evening when lights are coming on / turning off
the lights on even their shop tanks are amazing wow
Just a thought. If Matt (or even you with one of your tanks) could work out a way to have a 24hr channel simply showing the fish in the tank via the GoPro, it is absolutely amazing and it would be always changing. The sort of channel you could leave on when you're out for your cat/dog to watch, or to put on in your child's room at night as a sort of backdrop to help them sleep, or even in your room. Very peaceful and relaxing and ideal to watch last thing at night, especially for insomniacs or anyone who has trouble sleeping (thinking elderly, disabled, ill etc). Would love to subscribe if he can, would definitely have it showing on my laptop all day, just so relaxing to watch them.
Fantatic video! Loved how you included a local business in your video too.
I wish I had this solid oak tank at home 😂 I loved this build bc I adore green neons, cardinal neons as well. Pretty much all the slim body neon tetras, lol.
Matt just makes these vids 1000% better
Defo more go pro footage in the tank is a must really well done
It's amazing, wish everyone who sees this comment good health and happiness
I just absolutely loved this video!!!❤ You and Matt are awesome! Thanks for doing this! The scape is amazing and looks attainable for beginners!
Fun to watch you and matt just bounce off of each other Xx
Can I just say I remember posting in the comments a month or two ago suggestioning to do a build in the shop... And look where we are 😂😍
That gopro footage is gorgeous ❤❤❤
Love the go pro views of the inside of the tank!
You two giggels like small girls when you are together. It's like "Ahhh they are so sweet."😊 Awesome scape and teamwork. 👍
This is coolest tank ever because I feel like I can fairly easily emulate it in my next go at a tank.
