    This tank turned out amazing!!!! Thanks a lot to @FishShopMatt for helping me out and having so much fun over the days we did it. You can't beat a big group of Tera fish in a good sized tank. A planted aquarium like this will only get better and better as it matures as well.

      Love your design! I'm guessing you're aware, but for almost nothing but the cost of the tank, you could do a similar build, and have a self-filtering ecosystem that requires little to no maintenance. Very cool either way.

I love 💕 watching the fish interact with the new environment you just created for them! Someone commented a suggestion for a video for you and Matt and I absolutely loved the idea! It was for you to come up with a budget and do a side by side build off! See which one comes out better! Maybe the viewers can vote! Any way, great job, warmest regards to your wife and family! 😊.

    Love tetras. Love this tank. You have done so many wonderful tanks but this is at the top of the list right below the Red tank. This makes me want a bigger tank. I’m hoping you will put together a long cinematic transitioning from tank to tank showing each species of fish about its business in its environment, giving enough time to really observe the fish in their habitat. I had no idea red eyes schooled at the surface like that or maybe they were comfortable under the floating plants.

    I love Golden Tetras! I got a group of them five years ago, and a few of them are still around, mixing with others. Mine are still a little shy, even after all the time, so I think a big group (or other companions) is important. They are "second glance" fish: not prominent at first, but very beautiful the longer you look at them.

    I fell in love with tetras recently and I kid you not I had the same idea to do a tank with many different kinds of tetras. I was so happy to see this video for that reason. I can’t actually get another tank for a few years so I am just vicariously living through this video. Amazing. (Of course, I would have had some embers in my dream tank because they’re my favorite, but I understand that they’re pretty small, so not suitable with the angels, not judging, I think it’s amazing still).
