I've had the Angelfish Aquarium planned for a while but wanted to wait until the Ecosystem Aquarium was a year old. It's proved it's success, I've learnt tons and it's now time to move on :)...So here come the Angels!!! A more simplistic sccape this time to ensure that the fish are very visible and the stars of the show. I love how it turned out and I hope you like it too 😊

20 more cardinals would be even better
I bet those kuhli loaches helped prevent old tank syndrome in the previous setup by regularly stirring up your substrate.
One of the Rummy Nose seemed to float and bang off the side glass behind your head, might be good to check the back right corner if you possibly did have one casualty. 34:10
Can you do a budget setup and plot it's progress over a year. Like £100 - £200 to get everything you need. Start with a few plants that you can take cuttings from to grow into a full planted tank. A 25L tank would be a good size.
I must say, minutes with Matt explaining history, breed, care instructions and sizes full grown, about fish is becoming one of my favorite parts on your amazing scapes
This truly came out stunningly well. Very nice setup, MD. Those blue angels are in my top 3, I love the blues, and they shimmer like diamonds like you said. Can't wait to see them grow up. Take care
Indeed these are 2/ 3 of my top 3 fish I didn't know you could get away with putting angels and tetras together but it makes sence if you get em small together they can't eat em this is so beautiful
This build turned out spectacular, and there's something soothing about this tank... I could watch it for hours.
So glad you like it carole
We had a bunch of huge tanks at one point. Even a small pond in the living room! Now, we’re just down to two, tiny little ones. One square with a few snails and some aquatic grass. Another moss tank. I miss it. Watching this, I live vicariously through you!
Ohhh the cinematic part....37:00 - 38:00... so beautiful it could make me cry. Beautiful tank M.D. Really.
This is one of my favorite tanks. I love how open and clean it looks. As the plants fill in, it’s going to look even better. Sometimes, simple and light actually looks better. Especially when you have busy quick moving fish.
MD this is stunning. It's a very contemporary designed tank which looks amazing for the Angels to swim in and grow. Your selection of tank mates for the Angels is great and the end result is another winner.
Yessss can't wait for these guys to get big and breed!!
Fish bangin yeah!!!!
Love ur stuff man, been watching for a while now and have learnt so much now. I was getting out of fish and the whole under water world but when ur video popped up in my feed u brought it all back for me bc u showed me a different way of fish keeping and how to do different things
So keep up the great work and can't wait for where u go into the future 👍🏿
Huu
This definitely shows off the fish more than the natural scape. This tank is more featuring the fish which I love
Angels have never been my favorite but your scape and enthusiasm really made a difference. They are beautiful. Good job.
This tank is amazing!! And thank you for ALL your videos. I used to be just a gravel and plastic decor kind of guy but, because of all the gorgeous tank you have put together. I’ve learned a ton of info and found that live plants and beautiful hard scales are not difficult at all. You have definitely kept my interest and advanced my skill in my aquariums. Thank You. And again, this tank is gorgeous.
Aw man! I loved that ecosystem tank. New build looks amazing as always though :)
Perfect music for that beautiful ending. I could watch this tank all day and feel my blood pressure coming down. So relaxing 😌
Beautiful tank, love the Angels. Your tanks are so realistic, the fish are living the good life.
40 minutes of intense excitement! Thoroughly enjoyed every minute. Thank you.
I watched it at .75x so I got even more than 40 minutos out of it, pro tip
OMG that cinematic at the end was gorgeous, easily the best you have done so far, love it.
Yea not to brag too much, just enough to give my ego a bubble bath, but I did ALL editing on this one.
14:48 that itself looks so nice & minimalist vibe ✨️
A modern Natural! That’s the word you were looking for! It’s beautiful!
Absolutely love it. There’s nothing like the classic fishkeeping Trinity! Can’t wait to see these guys grow up and the tank grows in.
Youre the reason i actually did my first scape this month. Love your content and passion. Truly beautiful work
I watch all your videos, they are so therapeutic and incredible I even went back and watched from your first video ever loaded up and worked my way forward.
BY FAR THE BEST AQUARIUM/AQUATIC RUclipsR OUT!!!!!💯💯😁
Great build. I really enjoy the negative space in this one.
Love your scapes. The Frosted backgrounds that you do convinced me to do one. I just did a 40 breeder with a frosted background and LOVE it. Thank you!
Every tank you do always blows my mind away. You get a vision and you nail it every time! Your videos have come along way MD! Can’t wait to see your next build
amazing scape as always, a small school of geophagus tapajos (orange head earth eaters) would go awesome in there with the angles and tetra a propper classic yet some how modern looking aquairum
I do love them but I think I want to do a tank for them on their own one day in the future.
The plants are so beautiful. They make everything better. Plus the branch twirling❤❤❤
My morning is complete! Getting my video on before hitting up my lfs
This is my next project. Dad had an aquarium growing up, and the upkeep was such a hassle. But, a balanced ecosystem is a stunner.
I'm stoked for the angels again😍😍😍
Beautiful setup! Can't wait to see the angels grow.
I’ve got a blue that we think is a mix because he doesn’t have those distinctive stripes, only above his eye, and he’s BEAUTIFUL! I love him so much. ☺️
MD i think it would be really cool if you invited Matt to your studio and gave him a tour!!
I look forward to seeing this in a couple years to really see those angels in all their glory.
Wow!
From my point of view, this is the most gorgeous scape you’ve made up and until now🐟🔥
Thank you from across the pond. I love Angles and Tetras. With this video I'm planning my first aquarium in 26 years! I'll start small, with a 20 gallon tank.
its adorable watching him try to keep it together in front of you xD adorable
im invested now
You've Never Ceased To Amaze Me. Awesomeness Always. Stay Safe And Stay Blessed. Hi Doodle 😉
Great, classic tank. So nicely done!
The only thing that takes away from the fish and the beautiful scape is the background. I find that the blurred ones does that as well. It makes it look slightly dull and takes away from the depth and natural "Mystic" of the tank. Love the job you are doing and have been following you almost from the start! Keep up the amazing work!🌱🪸🐠🌿🪷🦐🐚🌿
Beautiful scape.. Loving this one. Looking forward to watching them grow xx
just when I don't think it can get any better you prove me wrong!!! you are on fire 🔥 😊😂❤
You definitely have an artist's eye. I really like the arrangements you make.
Awesome build and am so glad you resisted planting anything in that center area!! It’s a perfect open area for showcasing the beautiful Angels! And other fish swimming through that area. Love this build!!! ♥️
Amazing.utterly awesome
I love the naturalistic look and the empty space
Good work mate
Awesome set up MD as always...i think a black background would show off those angels even more
I am going to miss the og ecosystem tank, but definitely excited to see how this tank develops over time!
Amazing video as always. Loved that relaxing end with the music
That is one of my favorite tanks you have done! Great job! Thank You!
What a thoroughly enjoyable and informative video. Thank you..I'm in the process of setting up my aquarium and will definitely take some of your ideas. I wanted to go down the route of angelfish... decision confirmed. Brilliant
I really love this scape I have watched your previous videos and I love the media bag idea especially with how clean and fresh this look to prevent the aqua soil from coming thru but yeah I love this nice one MD
Nice! Thank you so much for taking me with when you went to the fish store! I haven't been in such a long time I'm growing a lil weary!! 🐠
Cichlids are awesome. So many to choose from, love this build and fish choice.
looks amazing, love the composition of your hardscape
It's amazing the plants know where the water is sending out feeler roots even if it's completely detached ,amazing
I’m so glad you got angelfish again! They are so beautiful!
All of MD Tank are amazing!!!!! Just relaxing an heavenly,
Can’t wait to see this tank mature in an take flight 💯
Love seeing these large builds with larger fish now!
Beautiful tank and done with taste 😍 Great job MD as always. Keep inspiring 🙂
MD u need to try this plant for your shrimp and any other tanks you want to. its called susswassertang and is not that common. love watching your vids. you've inspired me to breed shrimp.
Great looking tank, MD. Yesterday I was revisiting you Fallen Tree tank from the shed. I liked it, again. It is great to see you make great tanks with Matt. But you are still and also great on build like this, slow and education. Keep doing them both. 😊
Fantastic video. Beautiful creation. Love the rocks wood plants and sand. Visit to shop was great as well. Beautiful fish 👍👍
Beautiful scape! And those baby rays are adorable!
I'm officially jealous :\
But good work. The tank looks absolutely fantastic!
You've got good aquascaping skills.
Loving that one MD. Always good to see a smiling no mask Matt too😁😁
Absolutely lovely tank man, cant wait to make my own large aquarium some day!
always happy for an md vid
I’m so stoked you decided on cardinals and rummy’s!!! I am currently stocking my 75 with the same tetras, which will soon be home to some angels too!
This and the blue acara set up are my favourites too date! Nice work man
MD next tank idea, a pea puffer tank! Really want those fish myself so would be interesting what ideas you could come up with for a scape for them and also the merch would be super cute and we'd all buy some 🤣
I been looking ideas for angelfish tank ideas. So this helps a lot thank you so much
I love having a big display tank: more plants, more fish. But you're right about tidying up as you go when resetting it. Otherwise, you end up with a big mess and stuff everywhere. It can even be a little risky; I once twisted my ankle because I got so much water on the floor.
I love that little pic of you in the corner of every thumbnail😂
It's kind of a logo I use to let people know it's my video.
I think this calls for Angel fish merch🐠. Absoloutly love the scape
Beautiful scape! I think a banjo catfish would be a really interesting inhabitant for this setup. They burrow in sand and I think having 1-3 of those popping up occasionally would be quite neat.
Really lovely tanks and I really appreciate the explanations around the design theory and tradeoffs. Thank you. Now i will see how to do this without an infinite budget :)
Been watching you for 2 years already and I remember the old angelfish tank
Me too and the old angelfish tank is still my favourite of MD‘s tanks
Just wanted to say, I started watching your videos about 6 weeks ago, I've went back and watched tons of them now.
I'd never had an aquarium before, but now I have a 60ltr, 22ltr nano and 2 no filter shrimp tanks. This is your fault MD 😄 🤣
Keep up the awesome work dude!!
I can't believe you took that tank apart 😭😭😭😭 a full year just.. gone
I wouldn't have been able to take that one apart, I'd have done a new one lol
I have no words to say to youre scapes....love it
Love this scape so vibrant probably my 2nd favourite behind the rare eco
this looks so great. I love the front to back depth on this tank. It's the big thing I hate about my 29g tank. it lacks that space for scaping.
I enjoyed this vid so much I am going to watch it again. I think I will have to just do that with all your vids. (Pretty sure I have already seen them all). Love your channel & content. TY.
Looks absolutely amazing. I thought about putting seiryu stone in my tanks for my angel fish, but I was too afraid of it raising ph and dealing with that. In the future though I definitely will think about getting a bigger tank and put some seiryu in.
This, this is truly beautiful! Good Work MD
Finally Angelfish 😍🔥👌🏻
Not the first time, actually 😉
I really wanted an angelfish vid,
lo and behold, i got it
AWESOME BUILD, ONE AGAIN!!
I love the ecosystem tanks
It’s amazing you took on my angelfish idea. I also have the blue zebra pinoys. They are amazing. Great video and thanks so much
Matt the fish guy is super nice and I am sure he must know a good barber to trim up that beard and give it some shape. Do it brother!!
Looks awesome man that long rock on the right at the bottom covered in sand is definitely a "Rockodile" (crocodile head). Use it later in an aqua sculpt. Just an idea...
So excited for this! My 4ft is also stocked with blue pinoy angels, plus a school of x-ray tetras and some emerald corydoras. My pride and joy of all my tanks.
Awesome aquascape
I love Angel fish. Great tank MD 😘🥰
Oh wow didn’t realize we had the same local maidenhead ! I’m right between dorch and Wellington
Wait for it,
Wait for it,
Wait for it,
Annnnnnnd floating plants!
ITS PERFECT NOW! 🤣
37:26
Tbh i am little confused since fully grown angelfish require taller tanks. I have 6 adults, 50cm of water depth and i consider it a bare minimum. You obviously have massive amount of fishkeeping experience so won't argue with your decision thou. Good luck and looking forward for updates!
The plan is too whittle down the stocking as they grow and pair off. We a long way off that yet though.
I'd say a 29g high is perfect for a pair or even two pairs, any more angels I would consider a 40 breeder.
Just imagine what the drivers think when they see MD every second day next to the driveway, gathering gravel... :D
Crazy fish guy loves gravel...
It’s pretty cool too think that in a year you will do “1 year update” and everything will be fully grown.
History repeats itself. In 1 year's time, it will probably get torn down for something else.
@@rodneywalat8956 I often wonder if he’s ever gana love a setup/fish enough to where he can’t get himself to tear it down. 😅
@Robert Johnston Yeah, I do too. Won't that be a shocker.
@@rodneywalat8956 I mean he did do a 1 year update on the same tank but the ecosystem and he has done it on some other tanks aswell but who knows, maybe it will be too boring hahaha
