- Aquascape Tutorial: CRYSTAL RED SHRIMP Nano Cube (How To: Planted Aquarium Step By Step)
Originally I was just going to keep the aquascape simple with a few bunched plants in the aquarium and some soil for the Crystal Red Shrimp to graze on....but who wants to do things simple 😁...aquascape ON!!!

Yes water fleas are good
HI, I'M A BIG FAN OF YOURS FROM INDIA. YOU HAVE A PRETTY HUGE FAN FOLLOWING HERE. I WANTED TO KNOW WHEN YOU WOULD COME HERE AND TAKE SOME EXOTIC FISH FROM HERE! WE ALL HOPE YOUR ANIMALS STAY SAFE.🙏
I HOPE YOU GET THIS MESSAGE.
A suggestion MD, though the soil or water or other stuff are cycled earlier....adding fresh soil will leach ammonia and shrimps can't handle that. Give them time in the old water and add after sometime. It's just my experience regarding this. Happy Aquascaping!❤️
@@HavishVS thanks. This soil doesnt release ammonia
Who else wants to see an update about Timmy the turtle?
This guy be getting me through Lockdown!
Yes, I live for his videos!
Legit
@@taylahandrews2333 same his made lock down easier
I’m not in lockdown (live in Taiwan) but this guy is getting me through life!
Literally lol
MD: "This is my other studio if havent showed you already."
Me on my 100th MD video: Beautiful

Now imagine every single one of the nano cubes on the shelf being aquascaped 0-o
I'm waiting for the day when he decides to do a 'floating rock' tank, because that'll be *awesome.*

I'm going to have a betta tank with some shrimp and snails for Christmas. Possibly will be my best Christmas yet
Nice, though bettas often eat shrimp so be careful. Good luck 😊
I have a lot of cherry shrimps with my betta but the tank (10 gallons)is very heavenly planted and yea at the beginning he was very interested in them (not aggressive) but now he doesn’t care. Careful with ghost shrimps as I had some with my betta and they loved to fight with him for food. They would nip at the tail
@@SpiritAquatics YO SPIRIT IT'S YOU
Just a suggestion, if you could set it up and add the shrimp and snails first then a couple weeks later add the betta, they're less likely to bully the tank makes that are already settled in
@@BoozHiro sup
I've kept my nasty aqua soil with some water inside a bucket and it has a tone of fleas.... .•. Fleas means no fish and don't worry Md they'll be good just add some guppies.👍👍
I have too in my tank mate they don't hurt the shrimps but its just ugly
Just wanted to say that I've been a huge fan of your channel for a matter of weeks now, and my terrible sleep schedule means that I usually watch your videos as soon as they come out. I really love the work you do! Love from Melbourne (and stay safe!)

Bro I found your channel like 2 days ago and ive watched too many of your videos. It’s almost become an unhealthy habit. Please don’t stop
I know nothing about fish or plants but your videos are just so oddly satisfying! It calms down my anxiety! Literally love your channel.
So you should watch videos of FooTheFlowerhorn. They are really calming too.
Until very recently, I didn’t even know that you can plant real plants in an aquarium. Now that I do I want an aquarium more than ever because of the possibilities.
You get one😂?
why did you think you couldn't?
Enlightened
I also read an article a few months back saying that water fleas (cyclops) thrive when the water quality is great. And they're part of the cleaning crew as they eat decaying organic material, detritus, most algae, bacteria and yeast. But their presence also indicates that you have an excess amount of food. I have them in my shrimp tank too.
Well done for creating this piece btw!
I'm so jealous of how much more affordable aquascaping is in the UK and how much easier it is to get access to quality materials. The aquascaping hobby in the US is pretty much monopolized by like, 3 brands which makes everything incredibly expensive.
🤦♀️ £1 per gallon sale
In Canada it’s even worse 👍
Please give me the link to the nutrition capsule. Thank you very much 😍😍😍
Looking to get into the hobby. Do these tanks need a regulated temp? I don’t see any heaters in them.
Handy dandy Turkey Baster. I couldn't do my aqua scaping without one! 😁
Im telling yall. He is living the life i want in the future. Im very jalous of him
I shouldn't be watching your videos. Going to make me spend more money. Wife is not going to be happy.
Hi MD crs are caridina shrimp and they prefer lower ph water. the crushed lava rock actually increases the ph thus lava rock is mainly used for keeping Sulawesi shrimp or neocaridina shrimp in the hobby. But if you check the ph and it doesn’t increase too much I think that wouldn’t cause too much of a problem. Hope this helps :)
Me last Wednesday: "Just one aquarium is enough"
I now have two and plans for two more since I've been subbed.
Bro, try the same aquascape battle Herry rasio

Hey md,
Sponge filter, filters water by the flow created by the air bubbles coming up, so more the flow more efficient the filtration. But as u kept it hanging in top there won't be good filtration.
Yeah. Even I was wondering the same. He will surely figure it out.
I'm here researching my first shrimp tank, and you've used a lot of materials that I know my local supplier carries, so thank you! My supplier has a massive batch of shrimp coming for sale this weekend and I'm dying to get my first tank up and ready to handle that day!
They’re my children, I can’t have a favorite...... but I do!
Man your so lucky, love all you have, multiple rooms now, not just tanks :). Been watching since you only had a few subscribers. Slow mo sand etc. Would be pretty cool if you did a full aquarium/palludarium tour in a future video. Spend a minute or so describing/explaining each tank. Good Job Man. Love the Rooms.
That Water fleas is cyclops, it is only bad for fish fry and daphnia/moina.
Hi MD. Don't change what your doing and how your doing it! Your vids are so good. I have always wanted to use a sponge filter for some reason but wondered what you can get away with regarding plants and Bio Co2 / water Flow. Interested to see how this grows out! Love it mate.
I remember a time when MD Fish Tanks used to interact with his followers in the comment section.
if i did this nowadays, id be forever commenting and you wouldn't be able to get anywhere near as many videos 🤣
The mans busy! And has a wife and kids he hardly sees because he's making clips for us lot!
hello i can know what fertilizer i use advice for caridina, neocaridina and Amano shrimp
How are you regulating temperature? Just heating the room?
Heaters in each tank probably
I was compelled to subscribe to your channel after hearing you whisper to me then I realised I already was a subscriber lol love your videos and I’m going to try and set up a shrimp tank with my foster child once their room has been redecorated.
I would like to see him use dwarf hair grass from seeds
I read about the water flees being a sign of good water too. I have them in my planted shrimps tank too as theirs no fish in them either. I find they looked awful on moss balls so I don’t use them anymore but if not I suck them up when it’s too much when I do a water change
Tetep nonton walau gatau bahasanya:)
What water do you use in your tanks?
I’m to set up a shrimp only tank in a 100L aquarium. Any tips?
Did he cycle his tank? Wont the substrates seep ammonia? It could post potential danger to CRS
He used the same already cycled filter and most of the same water so the beneficial bacteria in the water and in the filter will still remain there so it should be good
@@miafrewin6438 he did opened a new packet of substrates if you realise. The new substrates needs cycling too as usually they will seep ammonia. Correct me if I am wrong
@@ShirtPapa it depends whether the soil is ammonia rich i guess. But I guess it's nothing a few more water changes and testing the water frequently won't solve. Plus I think the bacteria from the layer underneath might quickly spread to the top layer of soil if it was ammonia rich so then more bacterial colonies would develop ? Not sure though
@@miafrewin6438 hmm this is my personal opinion and my way of Doing things. Not forcing upon anybody. My rule of thumb is always to cycle your tank when new substrates are used due to the nature of ammonia seeps. Even if there is existing Beneficial colony when using used water etc, that doesn’t change the fact that ammonia is present and it posts a threat to the CRS in the tank. The only thing that change using existing setup with new substrates would mean shorter tank cycling.
That’s why I am quite shock when he introduced CRS immediately into a tank where new substrates are present..
@@ShirtPapa Okay fair enough, if that works for you, then go ahead :) I'm sure he probably did something to counteract the ammonia seeping somehow. He seems to know his stuff.
What a remarkable coincidence! I was getting ready to redo my 3 gallon shrimp tank. I needed your tips on how to safely break it down and save the water while I re-scape it. I was thrilled to see your video this morning! You're the best!!!
Filter has to run in the bucket with tank water to save the beneficial bacteria.
Hello, Congrats for your great contribute for the hobby. It requirers effort and dedication. Thanks.
Ik wil in voormatie hoe right je een aquarium voor een Kempvis in
Why don't you cycle the tank ??
I'm becoming a shrimp addict. My cherries are producing like crazy and I just got my first shrimplets from my blue dreams! Now I want to start a 3rd tank for pumpkin shrimp 😁
Sunday Morning. Lockdown so no football practice. Coffee.... mince pie and a new MD video. Lockdown isn't so bad.

I have read the same about the water fleas and also seed shrimp because in my 75liter tank I've only got shrimp and 2 gourami in there and there are loads of seed shrimp in there as well which the gouramis do enjoy
The shrimp ‘undercarriage’ comment and your own reaction to what you said. Haha so good. ‘Betty the beast’
Dude this is sooo awesome and you have the voice and accent to narrate anything. I wish I could talk like that.
You use tap water or ro water? What's was you're parameters for this shrimp tank after setup from ph to kh
Thanks
Legend has it that if MD pronounced the correct scientific name of a plant, it would be the end of the world 😂
beautiful hair grass, thanks for tutorial
hablas mas que trabajas
I love how he hearts his own comments
Nice vid , what about the scape with the big driftwood pieces?waiting for that .
Greetings from the states......Ah what a relief, we have voted out our BIG PROBLEM.....anywho, now that i can finally breath a sigh of pleasure I am finally going to get back in to fishkeeping. Just found your channel today and I have been having a hard time keeping up with my work because of your amazing works of art! You have great talent and are so GOOD! May i ask.....where do you get your beautiful rimless tanks/cubes? Here in the states people want to over design the shit out of things. In my opinion,when it comes to aquariums, minimalism is mucho BEAUTIFUL. CHEERS and PLUR!
Always blown away by your tanks. Appreciate your approach to the hobby. Some aquascape people can be pretentious keep up the good work!! Love these videos !
love the rack and new rack with several small tanks i almost kind of want to do that, instead of big tanks u can have many different fish...
i love your videos. i sit and wait for them all the time 😂
Hey my Brother! I learned a WHOLE LOT FROM YOU! 🤔🧐🤓✌🏿... Your tanks are AWESOME 🤩🏆💯💥✌🏿
You are my absolute favorite in the hobby. Everything I build is inspired by your tanks I only have 4 tanks but I've gotten a lot better and now my wife likes my tanks (she definitely did not while I was learning)
If you’d looking for some shrimp then you can mail order from Horizon Aquatics, they have blue bolts etc, check out their website, also George Farmer just produced a video shop tour of their place, you’d like it, a lot lol
Hello. You input shrimps immediately into new set tank. But I read, that only after 6-8 weeks shrimps can inhabit the aquarium

How many shrimp should I keep in a 10 gallon? I'm not looking to breed I really just want them as pets but if they breed there's nothing I could do.
I open RUclips at this time mostly to check whether you uploaded a new one. Your videos feels good !
can you give me information on how to make very clear water in an aquarium, like yours, and what type of filter did you use at 15.00 minutes, bro?
The thing you’re saying about water fleas, in a survival situation, if you came across two ponds of water, one completely clear with nothing swimming in it, and one slightly dirty, full of things swimming around in it, you’d want to collect your water from the dirty one. If nothing is growing in the water, it’s a sign there is something wrong with it. So yeah, you’re right. 🤙🏻
Hi I have been watching alot of videos of fish tanks set ups as I want a tank nothing big but easy to keep then I saw SHRIMP omg I fell in love please can you help I have watched alot of videos on shrimp keeping but yours are the best im in Scotland UK and really I know nothing of what I need and I am on quite a small budget I would do a video and mention you and your channel on my first ever set up I can give you my email if you could help me I know you are probably busy but I really only like your videos xx
You should sell these set ups tank with everything and shrimp. I would buy one just to get the cycled filter
hi...can i ask you question...why my red shrimp always died?can you suggest a tip to take care of my shrimp with well?
I've watched almost all your videos and u taught me almost all I know about aquariums. But does your aqua soil ever make the water black when first filling a tank. Or do u wash it or what?
A healthy amount of water fleas is a sign of a well-balanced aquarium with many food sources. An extreme amount of water fleas, as exhibited in your aquarium, can be a sign of poor water quality. This does not hold true for all aquariums. I have an eastern newt tank with a similar amount of water fleas, yet my water quality is perfectly fine.
I love the like hornwort u added in the discus aquarium!! It looks really cool!!
Also, could u do a vid on how u syphon your tanks without messing up/sucking up the sand and aquascape? That would be helpful
Lymnophila not hornwort
Do you prefer cuba hc? Some people saying it may over grow and their root cause issue. Wondering if the hair grass has similar problem?
Lovely little set up.. Keep an eye on the tds it will go up fast in a small tank.
Think you need to do a female beta sorority tabk with courful females would be sick like 10 females
You did not cycle the tank this is q bad example. This way you kill shrimps.
Hi please share how to avoid nematode white & red worm from shrimp tank 😫😫😫 I need ur help. Please respond
Are you using a tiny plastic dish for snail food to avoid ammonia and gross stuff getting into the substrate? That's genius!
In your videos you always say that you hate throwing away plants. Maybe you can make a website or something to sell them.
They're called copepods, and yeah, if they're there it means the water quality is good
When it comes to separating the hairgrass, due you keep them in bunches by putting rubber bands??
The nutrition pilla are the worst idea ever if you’re keeping caridina shrimp…
Hi, great job, how do you doing clear surface? THX
Aren't these CR Shrimps need RO water and gh+ chemicals?
Do you vacuum gravel in planted shrimp tanks?
In your fish bowl video you say you can’t use so much substrate? Why so much in this one ?
Just wondering how to keep the water temperature stable in summer and winter? Please help.
I have 2 ideas for shimp tanks im makeing and i think i need someone whos like big time into the hobby to make sure things are okay in my plans
Hello, your aquarium is good, greetings from Indonesia
What’s the sizes of the aquarium? The red crystal shrimp
Could you be a lil less creepy? Don't want to sound impolite.
What about a heater? Does the lighting provide enough heat for the shrimp?
Salut,
T'es vidéo sont super,je sais que tu explique en détail mais pourrais tu mettre les sous-titres en FR ....😉
Thank you....
I love crystal red shrimp, they look like little candy canes!
Can you do a bonsai aqua system with a Turtle and some fish and shrimp
does hair grass need co2? thanks
a fan from Philippines
how can you start on youtube when you doesn't have any visibility on your video ?
How many days did you wait before put the shrimp in the tank?
Is the amazing asian aquarium actually without co2? I see a tropica co2 system in.
Hi from Italy.
Well, if I had a healthy tank and no small fish, there would be some cyclops water flea.
Thanks for supporting all the fish.
Bow, oh wait this isn't antscanada..
