I got to meet you today at Aquashella, and you know how they say, "never meet your heroes"? Well, you disproved that adage. You were so friendly and personable. You took the time to have genuine conversations with people & everyone left happy. I came to Aquashella for my birthday with my 2 kids and had said to myself I'd get the VIP package if you were going to be there, but you aren't on the list! But that didn't matter, I still got to meet you, you gave me some advice on my new shell-dweller tank, and I got to shake your hand. Thank you for making a great trip even better.
@@cooliipiethat’s because large fish require extremely large aquariums and he doesn’t want to either fill half his studio with a big tank or not give enough room
I didn't see anyone commenting about this, so: houseplants! The one in the shellfish tank looks like a china doll plant (Radermachera sinica). I had one years ago, but it could not withstand direct sunlight, and I had no better spot for it at the time, so it died. Happy to see yours growing so well :) And the leaf you thought might be a monstera among the pothos is indeed a monstera. Monstera leaves are not always split; a young specimen or one growing under low light will only grow smaller, intact leaves. Also I 100% get what you mean with fish socializing together. The absolute best part of caring for an aquarium for me is seeing my cories interact with each other
I first saw the idea of using terrestrial plants at the top of the tank here and it has transformed my aquarium. The fish love swimming among the roots and it really help improve the balance of the aquarium - water is crystal clear. Thanks so much.
Seeing as you have three aquariums lined up, it would interesting to see South American fishes in the lefthand tank, African fishes in the middle, and Asian fishes in the right and have a 'East to West' representation of tropical fishes.
One of my friends lost her goldfish recently and is thinking of doing a planted tank with fish, so immediately sent her a link to yours and Matt’s channels to see what you both do!
Tbh. not surprised that the left tank had the most algae - it's right next to the door and window and receives more natural light than the other two. Just my 2 cents... ☺☺☺
I have a similar occurrence in my tank that's placed opposite a window. I prefer to keep snails and plecs to graze on the algae. It's good food for them and I don't need to clear the glass much. Maybe better than blacking out the side?
So nice that you showed the process of your Tanks with the algae and what to do in those situaiton sice its normal for new tanks but sometimes people dont know how to deal with it!
I was struggling with that horrible brown stringy algae in a new tank I set up. I would remove most of it when I did a water change and it would have covered the tank in a few days. It slowly grew back less and less each time and I got a group of amanos which completely got on top of it in less than a week. They completely transformed the tank which I was on the verge of tearing down and starting again.
I've always thought that the best way to get on top of algae is the biological method. Algae eating animals such as Amano. In my new setup I am working on, I currently have ten cherry shrimp (added a little over a week ago) and three small Ancistrus catfish (added yesterday). It's a 350L tank (Rio 350 specifically), so it'll take a while for them to deal with the algae, but they will deal with it, particularly as the cherry shrimp start to reproduce and the catfish start to grow. Fast growing plants also help, of course, and the stems in the tank have started to accelerate their growth.
Very nice 😀love the concept of the three tanks linked together with hardscape. Can not wait to see what fish stock you put in each tank. I would love to see some colombian tetras in one :)
You can also do hostas in the tops of the tanks as well. I have one in a floating basket in my stock tank pond that has tripled in size since i put it in a month ago. They are good for sucking out nitrates too.
My experience with hostas is they have species-specific requirements most easily replicated in outdoor situations. There are a few miniature varieties but even they tend to fill out horizontally and grow rather large fairly quickly. I would be interested in knowing how they do in an indoor paludarium type set-up.
You may want to investigate a mini waterlily in the “Leopardus” family. The leaves are greenish-bronze with dark red spots and stems. I once grew them in a shallow, terrace pond/fountain then moved them indoors to a 50 gal tank to over-winter. Because you mentioned “red” plants you may like it. Allow the pads to break the surface and they throw out small, bright, sky-blue, (fragrant) waterlilies. The blooms are held aloft several inches above the water’s surface. A hint with all waterlilies; they absolutely love bonemeal. If you can’t get tablets I made my own mixing equal parts regular, gardener’s bonemeal and high-clay content soil in a little cheesecloth package I’d zip-tie closed. Waterford Gardens greenhouses taught me this fertilization technique and my lilies thrived and bloomed profusely as a result.
You should stock the tanks with fish that inhabit major amazonian rivers. Each tank being a seperate location, i.e Xingu, Tapajos, Negro.. or any of the others... Have fun at Aquashella btw!!
Hey there! Your tank scaping skills are truly incredible; I'm always blown away by how you design your aquariums. It's evident that you have a real talent for this art form. I noticed your friend recently left working with you, and it got me thinking. If you're ever in need of someone to lend a hand at your new store, I'd be thrilled to be considered. With 14 years of experience in the hobby, I'm passionate about what I do and would love the opportunity to work alongside you. Thanks for sharing your passion with the world! Sending warm regards from Kosovo."
Long time viewer, but unrelated topic: I love the song playedt 0:45! Tellsonic - Bust a move! I had to shazaam it, thanks for introducing this song! Not sure if I've heard it in your other videos but I love it!
MD you should spend a bit of time looking into getting different kinds of pothos. There is a huge variety of pothos. Lots of colors and there are some with huge leaves and some with very small leaves. Colors from very dark green to silver to neon charteuse to half green and half white. You could really get more out of your filtering plants. You play so much with color and structure with your aquatic plants but you use the same three houseplants over and over, which is fine! But there are multiple varieties of those three houseplants and I am sad that you are missing out.
Absolutely! I never knew there were so many types of pothos! Unfortunately many nurseries (in the US especially) only stock the two or three most common varieties. One often needs to go to specialty mail-order nurseries which sometimes only list them by name. A certain amount of research in advance may be necessary to get the desired plants.
@@The_Crucible714 I have found that family run nurseries and general plant nurseries that have a house plant area will sometimes have more interesting ones. At the big hardware stores like Home depot and Lowes I have only seen green, neon (rarely), golden varigated, and white and green, again rarely. I have had much better luck at nurseries.
Ottos for me are just decoration, they never get to work. Best cleaner is common pleco, every few months i take him back to the store to get smaller one, they clean every type of algae very fast. But currently i have amano shrimp and bristlenose pleco. Combined they are pretty good, not as good as a common pleco, but they dont get huge.
fabulous. I did wonder as you were doing red and green if the third would be blue, I think there are bluish plants? - you know, RGB. What are your thoughts on tank bridges? 3 more stunning builds.
Would be cool to see each tank done using 3 different methods. Thinks like canister vs sponge vs hang on back filters. Expensive light vs cheap light vs diy. Compost vs aqua soil vs sand. Things along those lines.
Would love to see 3 types of cichlid you’ve got had before, something a little more advanced and have these as breeding projects? Would be cool to see something a little bigger and more exotic rather than just more barbs, gouramis etc :)
You make cleaning the lily roots look so easy! It took me forever and I had a real mess! How do you deal with the roots converti g and shedding the slimy outer layer in your tanks? Do ottos eat it or do you strip the slime by hand?
Good job Mal. Nice light, keep us updated. Oh yeah! You should invest in a pair of cheaters. At 58 I probably have 6 or 7 pairs around the house, work and truck 😂. Invaluable 👓👈😑
i was waiting for another update on those tanks so much and now that I m watching I dont want it to end, cant wait to see the next one and also like a little idea wouldn t be nice to put some red root floaters from the other red tanks, I would love if you d consider that
I do note that the tank nearest to the door had most algae, coincidence? One of the first channels I geeked out on to research! Best tip I learned is the breaking of root tabs at startup 👌
Totally. I’ve tried to watch Matt’s channel but getting his entire family involved often dilutes the content. If you watch a YT channel for aquarium scaping you don’t necessarily want to see “home movies”of his family, his kids, the dogs, etc, etc.. I think unless he stays on topic the YT algorithm will begin to bury him.
I have a small back tank filter aquarium for my son (it’s by glowfish I think). Can you put the plants in the back part or will that risk the plants reaching into the water pump at the bottom?
I've watched a bunch of your videos but haven't heard you talking about surface scum. Do you get surface scum on your tanks that have minimal surface agitation? If so, what do you do?
When youre trimming your plants, how come your bottom sections dont deteriorate? Mine all get algae covered and dont look lush anymore before the cut line.
Hey MD, love you vids. Just wondering, you said you were gone a week, is there no one there when you are gone? What do you for feeding / water top offs and such when you are not there? Cheers

Video 29 of asking for a tank with some freshwater dolphinfish please.
???
It's a big fish or rather can grows big.
you're asking to the wrong person, as MD is a small/nano fish keepers
😶😑
How about some bleeding heart tetras?
I feel there should be a short bit of Timmy in every video. He brings so much joy. :)

You don’t have fish tanks you have plant tanks, but sometimes fish live in them. 😅
And I’m here for it 😂
Hahaha. So true

Your red only tank has to be one of the MVPs of the fish room
Ive been too busy to watch anything for a week. Im so glad to have a MD video to watch now that i have a chance to sit down 🎉
One of my friends lost her goldfish recently and is thinking of doing a planted tank with fish, so immediately sent her a link to yours and Matt’s channels to see what you both do!
Can't wait to see the fish go in! Loving the videos, but I do miss your trips to the Fish Shop.
Yes, me too. I really miss the trips to the fish store.
I will third that. A lot of the fun was at the fish store
Time for @FishShopMatt and MD to visit each other's channels!
You should get those aqua bridges and connect all of the tanks together.
Wow, I've always kept monstera and pothos in my aquariums. But I want to go get a peace lily right now and put it in! That looks great!
3 живописных аквариума, как модульная картина живописи.

Привет из России!
Tbh. not surprised that the left tank had the most algae - it's right next to the door and window and receives more natural light than the other two. Just my 2 cents... ☺☺☺
Yeah 100% I think in going to black out the sides whilst it's settling in. Will be fine once balanced. It's doing perfect now
I have a similar occurrence in my tank that's placed opposite a window. I prefer to keep snails and plecs to graze on the algae. It's good food for them and I don't need to clear the glass much. Maybe better than blacking out the side?
My very first proper tank - got a tank with a lid. Works out well as I smoke - and stay up very late!
aww Timmy loves the mrs., so cute
So nice that you showed the process of your Tanks with the algae and what to do in those situaiton sice its normal for new tanks but sometimes people dont know how to deal with it!

I actually like the oranges more than the reds.
They just blend together nicely & create a more peaceful-looking tank. 😎
Im a simple man. I see MD fish tanks and i click.❤
I love you MD, I have a lot of fish tanks too and it's all your inspiration!
That plant in your shell tank next to the peace lily is a China doll
The tanks are so gorgeous! Just fabulous looking. Your skill continues to wow me. Thanks for the video.

Is this different species from Nymphaea zenkeri?

this is an incredible setup...... congrats .....
Another beautiful triple tank - trifecta! Gobsmacking Bloody Gorgeous, MD!
4:50: ... It has to be said ...
" Anything from the trolley dear ...? "
You’ll have to get really into the terrestrial plant propagation too!
I love how you just wheel your trolley everywhere haha
That bronze Milfoil is pretty common in Australia, It gets a really nice colour with co2 and high light.

Dude sprinkles snails into his tanks as if he was seasoning soup 😂. Amazing!
you should try some Kuhli loaches again!! love your work as well beautiful tanks
ありがとうございます作って見たいと思います🐠🦞🦀
Love it! I would love to see a fish room tour!
Would be cool to see each tank done using 3 different methods. Thinks like canister vs sponge vs hang on back filters. Expensive light vs cheap light vs diy. Compost vs aqua soil vs sand. Things along those lines.
@MJAquascaping has done experiments like that. I'm still hoping that one day MD and MJ will do a project together!
Would love to see 3 types of cichlid you’ve got had before, something a little more advanced and have these as breeding projects? Would be cool to see something a little bigger and more exotic rather than just more barbs, gouramis etc :)
Yes MD I've been waiting for this video great stuff as always
I love those algae tanks because they keep my clean up crew fed for longer & the problem sorts itself out within a month anyway.
Watching each episode of this triple aquarium is even more exciting than Dynasty
You make cleaning the lily roots look so easy! It took me forever and I had a real mess! How do you deal with the roots converti g and shedding the slimy outer layer in your tanks? Do ottos eat it or do you strip the slime by hand?
Can you make a video on things you can’t live without? I always wondered what you use to propagate your pathos,etc
Good job Mal. Nice light, keep us updated.
Oh yeah! You should invest in a pair of cheaters. At 58 I probably have 6 or 7 pairs around the house, work and truck 😂. Invaluable
👓👈😑
that little song you sung made me giggle
The end tank looked 100x better without the steams but that’s just my personal preference
I'm thinking of trying some house plants in 4 foot tank
Do freshwater pea puffers for the third tank!
Nice setup MD as always. Have you tried using mangroves in your tank? They work well in both Salt and Fresh water.
i was waiting for another update on those tanks so much and now that I m watching I dont want it to end, cant wait to see the next one and also like a little idea wouldn t be nice to put some red root floaters from the other red tanks, I would love if you d consider that
What are the lovely red fish in with timmy please?
I do note that the tank nearest to the door had most algae, coincidence?
One of the first channels I geeked out on to research! Best tip I learned is the breaking of root tabs at startup 👌
Been waiting for this. ❤❤ ur efforts deserve a million sub milestone!
love it so much, hope ur tanks do well
GREAT VIDEO
Get drapefin barbs. Not many videos of them around but really lovely fish
Yoh. Bro I've been waiting for this one! :)
I like high flo... She's more fun 🤣😂🤣 miss you and Matt's energy together 😉
Totally. I’ve tried to watch Matt’s channel but getting his entire family involved often dilutes the content. If you watch a YT channel for aquarium scaping you don’t necessarily want to see “home movies”of his family, his kids, the dogs, etc, etc.. I think unless he stays on topic the YT algorithm will begin to bury him.
@@The_Crucible714 Have you tried recently? His videos have improved massively!
The pothos looking flat leaf is a Colocasia or elefantear
Hopefully they aren't all full of nano fish 😊 something a bit special/different would be great. Brilliant set up BTW 😊
You should try anthurium in your tanks, similar to peace lily
Curious - why did you not put in snails, shrimp and alge feeder fish in those tanks before going away? Love your channel - just curious?
I have a small back tank filter aquarium for my son (it’s by glowfish I think). Can you put the plants in the back part or will that risk the plants reaching into the water pump at the bottom?
Do you still have the discus tank ?
Fantastic! Can I vacation to the UK just to hang out with you for a week? You can put me to work :)
Do you find the 'house plants' take up too many nutrients from the water? D
Hello. You have in one of these tanks(the third one !) a variety of Cryptocoryne Cordata ? if so, where you find it ? Thanks 👍👍
I've watched a bunch of your videos but haven't heard you talking about surface scum. Do you get surface scum on your tanks that have minimal surface agitation? If so, what do you do?
When youre trimming your plants, how come your bottom sections dont deteriorate? Mine all get algae covered and dont look lush anymore before the cut line.
Maybe too much lighting?
Angling for a new channel sponsor, MD? I'm sure the folks at Jaguar will be reaching out soon ;)
MD ive got string algae on my two new 10l betta tanks. What CUC do you suggest for such a small tank mate to combat it?
awesome vid
Your 8ft is amazing...but i think you need some colourful fish in there.
That plant that is crawling all over the Buce in the middle of the middle tank... What is it called?
Hey MD, love you vids. Just wondering, you said you were gone a week, is there no one there when you are gone? What do you for feeding / water top offs and such when you are not there? Cheers
“Nobody ever said, you got too much plants!”, quote from some internet stranger. Get them new plants!
Oh! Travel vids coming soon? 😎
What is the yellow/orange plant any help will be appreciated
Hi MD,
Have you cleaned the tank prior shooting the video? I never see a single fish poop on any on your videos, what’s your secret recipe?

Love your stuff MD, huge fan! Would love to chat someday!
Great video as usual. Why do you wear a hoodie when you have your arms in and out of the tank I'd be soaked within 5min.😂
I think it would be cool to do each tank as a separate regional tank. I.e., Asian, African, and South American fish.
