Do you think you could attempt a Oscar Cichilid tank in the future???
No cleanup crew? 😮
Qqlall
this white Boss can already be seen that he will be very aggressive. Whenever he sees the weakest player, he will insult him.
This is what I love to see MD build videos on 3ft plus aquarium's
The work involved in breaking down and re-creating a new aqua scape is so underappreciated in these videos. I have 6 aquascaped tanks, and just catching platies out that were breeding like rabbits, OMG! Everything out, fish out, then re-scape in a black cloud of water, bloody hell man. Meanwhile separating the other corys and plecos. MD deserves every subscription and a million more.
I have 1 i have to breakdown soon really soon. Its my guppy, endler, swordtail breeder tank i started more than a year ago. Over 200 babies and 2 inches of floating plants. Lol this will take days
@@aronro1291 I made the mistake of moving the babies to their own holding tank, then they started having babies. Now every platy is in their own 125 gallon tub. More invasive than duck weed, I'm praying I got all the babies. Best of luck.
I broke down a tank for someone today who was gifting me their setup, catching the fish was a task and a half. I have holding tanks ready but knowing how hard these fish were to catch (Colombian tetras) I've decided to just keep them in a tub until the new tank is ready again.
I am so glad you are doing Angelfish again :) and absolutely smashin' tank and planting! Great aquascape ❤
I have never had an aquarium, but I love anglefish. ❤
angelfish need a way bigger aquarium
You create the most beautiful planted tanks. Your fish selection in this one seems to be just about perfect as well. You are so fortunate to have so many tanks and have the talent to create such amazing aquascapes.
the 2 pieces of wood at 10:24 were waiting their whole lives for this moment. they were perfect
Just a Shame you never see them again
@@dzonz4274 lol true
This form of living aquatic art isn’t viable for me but it’s simply gorgeous to behold. Thank you for sharing your passion with us. More, please!❤
Those Tetras are just stunning. As is the tank aquascape. great job.
@23;23 ... MY FAVOURITE time on every show... "Let's go and see Matt" ...
I just love those angels, with the black background we can't see the black angel, is harder to focus. A thumbs-up to you for this scape.
This one is really special and that's not easy to say considering how many beautiful tanks you regularly make MD. Thanks for sharing.
One of the nicest tanks You've made MD! You're my true inspiration
Liking this one a lot . Anything with wood branching out and then having plants blending around it . Great job
MD sure has talent in setting up aquariums.
I love this tank. The way you put everything together is super pleasing to the eye.
Love the purple tetras. The tank looks great. I like how you threw in the info for keeping angel fish together. Thats vital info for someone who is not familiar with them and how they can fight with each other over time, keep up the great work. Wish you the best
Ive had aquariums since 1960. To me, Angelfish will always be the Kings of the aquarium hobby.
As a gardener and Koi pond owner, I must say this is one of your more beautiful builds. And those Angels are gorgeous! I wish I could put Angels in with my Kois.
Thanks for including a little more on immediate after care 😊👍
THANK YOU! Please show this tank a LOT!
So I have a 200 ltr set up and have ended up with 1 big marbled angelfish, she's a beauty! But quite dominant. After seeing this video, Matt has convinced me that adding some new ones would help to create a shoal would actually help to calm her down, so-to-speak. I have recently purchased some golden angelfish x4. I was worried that she would be aggressive towards them, but quite the opposite has happened. It's almost like she has adopted them (I know she hasn't), they swim together, but know there place - so far so good. Cheers for the advice.
the last couple aquascapes you have done have been some of my favourite, keep it up!
Can’t believe I missed this a few weeks ago. Love emperor tetras. Beautiful work.
Emperor Tetras need to be utilized more. Their stunning purple color is awesome.
Those are some really striking emperors indeed! My local fish/pet shop had some full black ones, but I like these superblues even more. And of course, those angels are stunning! It's amazing how many varieties you see of them nowadays as compared to when I first started in the hobby as a teenager a good thirty years ago, hee. Hopefully you'll keep this tank up long enough for them to grow out and form pairs! 😃
Set up my first planted tank a little 5 gallon one for my desk. Best decision I have ever made, love watching the endlers checking out the plants, rarely see the shrimp but they pop up every now and then just to let me know they are still in there
Great video MD, would love to see you do something like this but for an 8ft tank. would be cool to see and having it on your long table as soon as you walk it would be insane
Love it! Just did something similar with my 40gallon by going above the rim with some immersed plants. Something new I tried: I used screen from the hardware store (like whats used on patio doors) to fully cap down the nutrient layer before adding the top visible substrate/sand. That way my corys wont dig and mix them all together!
Magic, just pure magic. I love this creation so much.
I love, love the Angelfish, and the variety of them is fabulous! Great tank, but the wood seems a bit lost. Thanks for sharing your time and talents.
Really love the look of this tank and it's the perfect fish collection. I always live cycle my tanks. Like you mentioned, as long as you're testing your water and doing water changes you can minimize the negative effects while the tank cycle starts.
I stopped trying to figure out a favorite tank. Caused to many headaches. Now I just admit that I admire them ALL. My head hurts much less. Love the channel. Always look forward to the next one. Best wishes from Iowa in the U.S.
this is one of my favorite tanks. Angels and Tetras look amazing and the aquascaping looks natural and gorgeous at the same time. I always preferred scapes with full hairgrass carpet and moss on woods but this tank looks so good it's making me change my mind
Hi MD
Great video as always. Looks really good.
Just bought my first aquarium and I can thank you and Matt for falling into this incredible hobby. Thanks for the inspiration and keep doing what you're doing.
Gorgeous aquascape! Tetra emperors are my fav tetra species! Glad you pick them up for this tank
Can we just appreciate at 32:55 when the rainbow tank becomes and actual rainbow tank :)
After watching easily 20 of your builds, I'm just planting a 20H for my Betta and small school of glowlight tetras. Thanks for all the advice and entertainment, and good to see Matt is on board with you.
Fish must love living in these beautiful more natural homes. ❤
Lovely tank. The blue tetras are new to me, quite handsome.
You bombarded this tank with plants. I love it
И а квариум и качество сьемки на высоте, десять лайков!!!
Hey @MDFishTanks
I think I have not seen you do like a mangrove style scape ! It would be really awesome I think! Imagine loads of loads of wood standing up like roots with no rock but just sand, and maybe on top out of water make it look like actual mangrove like tree with plants.
It would be so sick!!!!
Love your videos man! Keep up the hard work 💪
My favourite aquascapist guy lol I love how you always clearly cover almost everything in your designthrough.
I would have totally opted for the natural looking emperors in this setting, but these look so cool when they're shown closer up amidst vegetation. They just reminded my of smurfs in a forest lol
Awesome, those angels will look gorgeous, and emperor tetras are great , try feeding them a fly, and they chase each other for it.
This is one of my favorites! I'm about to do Angel tank and I so wish I had access to the beautiful fish and plants you have in your area of the world!
Oh wow, I loved watching this. You've inspired me to work on my tanks more. I now have alot to do tomorrow. Very educational. Exactly what I needed to learn. THANK YOU!
Beautiful tank. Love the fish choices. Maybe a light background would show off the tetras more.
the way the world works... ive watched your videos for 2 years now. I have had 4 Angelfish for all of those 2 years and JUST yesterday, I lost all 4 of my Angelfish within 36 hours... I have ZERO reason as to why... but now you bless me with a new Angelfish video... thank you for brightening a sad day.
So sorry you lost your Angelfish 😢
@@pamlacey136 been a sad week. Not sure what to do with my 4ft tank now 😔
Gorgeous tank and fish! Glad you finally got to do your angel tank!
The empress do look like swimming penguins. 😂❤ love them even more.
Beautiful tank. My hands don't work well, so I can't keep fish, but I always vicariously enjoy yours. Thank you. 🙂
Love you and Matt. I have learned so much. I have a 55 gallon long. I used the plant holders so that the roots are in the tank. (Peace plant) Everything was ok for about a week. Then my ph went down yo 6.0. So took them out and used api (of course!l) to get ph up.
One day i hope one day to do something like you do.
Keep those videos coming.. i still have lots to learn!!
One of the most beautiful tanks you have ever done!
MD finally reading the back labels and not just dumping a few caps and an extra one for good luck haha
Stunning!! So beautiful!!❤
Beautiful tank full of happy fish!
Beautiful scape as always. I think some Kuhli loaches would be a great addition as part of your cleanup crew.
Your channel I think is the best for low tech that works so well.
This hardscape was perfectttt i could literally feel it when u put the right thing in its so satisfying
That looks amazing great job , love the choice of plant's and fish.
I love that setup, absolutely beautiful!
I love your aquarium! You are such a inspiration. The Angel fish you chose and the plants are beautiful! Great job! I love Angel fish
And l used to have a large tank with them. But l lost my fish.
I hope to get more in the future. Thank you for sharing your video!
Again another absolute stunner. I love it all the best ❤❤❤
You are immensely talented! Your tanks are so beautiful and look amazing! A true slice of nature!
It is an aquarium. Just another word for it.
In all the years MD I've been watching this is it mate absolutely amazing tank and those tetra are the perfect fish for it
Beautiful looking tank! Cheers 🍻
Love your aquascapes. So inspiring.
Beautiful tank ❤ I have 8 almost full grown angel fish I've had for a little over a year and they are all so stunning
Really enjoyed this one. It really does look so natural
Awesome fish selection.
Absolutely stunning display. 😍
This has to be part of some of the best tanks you’ve made.
One of your best scapes MD. Love it
The thing about emperor tetras is that their colours never show through as well in photos and on camera as well as they look in life. If you think that emperor tetras are dull looking, it's because you've never seen them in real life. They are simply stunning and show stopping in person.
love your work MD :), I have tried an aquaterrarium after seeing your work. Keep it up from Australia
As always your setup’s are first class.
Another triumph! I love the light on this tank. What I don’t understand is why you say that the crushed root tabs will result in a slow release of nutrients. Surely the slow release comes from the active ingredients being in a tablet form - by crushing the tabs the nutrients will dissolve and break down sooner. Would it be better to perhaps crush only a few of them, break some into quarters, some into halves and keep some whole? This way you might achieve a slower release of the nutrients, over a longer period of time, but still have an initial ‘hit’ of nutrients when you first set up a tank. Just a thought. Loving API products by the way - CO2 Booster has really helped me to get on top of BBA.
Absolutely love the music at the end.
Hey md just a suggestion:
At last when you do close up shots of fishes all are great but we also want shots of each plant how its placed , popping its colour and wiggling in flow ❤
Finally tank with my favorite fishes. I cant wait for updates from this tank❤
The plants in this build are amazing, also I was unfamiliar with that species of tetra... they are gorgeous!
absolutly stunning , amazing , looks so great 😊😊
Stunning tank, just gorgeous. Keep up the great work. Luv the vids👍🏻👍🏻
Magnificent aquarium!
Another inspiration thank you
The song at 4:20 has been “A wolf in VR” theme song for a couple years now. Not complaining just funny how 2 RUclipsrs that make videos on completely different things use the same song. Lol
That's a nice looking schtump!
I love it. Another great aquarium
Angelfish are classic beauties of the fish hobby. Your creation of this scape to showcase them is really impressive. I especially enjoy the time you have at the end of the video just focussing on the fish. I could watch hours of similar footage, it's so soothing., yet interesting. Are you not concerned the tetras may nip the fins of the angels?
Amazing tank!! I find I love every tank you put together. Gina
The tank looks great!
Fantastic tank. Oh how I’d love such a large tank. I only have room for a 10 gallon and it doesn’t hold many fish!
Love these emperor tetras
Tank does look awesome and it’s initial set up. It’s a shame that that beautiful Hardscape will be obscured by those fast growing stems that you placed in the middle ground will cover up all that hard scape in a month. I probably would’ve chosen, low, growing slow, growing plants, so that you can really see the impact and the hard scape.
Holy planting Batman! Love it
MD, I dig your aquascapes a lot! Your artistic integration of hardscape, plants and fish is amazing. Yet watching another build today, and after you commented that the plants will grow “in a natural way”, it occurred to me that if there was a single, constant aspect of your work, it’s the “natural” look. But then I wondered why? Clearly, it’s an aquarium, which is, by definition, artificial. Have you considered celebrating this aspect of your work? Sort of MD meets modern art. Is there an artistic aquascape that expresses the build and “artificial” nature that confronts us with ALL aquariums? Maybe there’s some inspiration to be found from artists like Picasso, Dali, Pollock, etc….. just a thought. Cheers, Dale
MD never disappoints.
Well done much love ❤
Wiederum ein super schön gestaltetes Becken, das allerdings für die Skalare auf Dauer etwas zu klein sein wird...😉
You always do a fantastic job and that light wow
