Lols I would love to see some biotope tanks!! It's not like Matt can't source you area specific plants and livestock. 😁 maybe some different catfish or nano fish. Do you watch Rachel o'leary's channel?! Check out her channel maybe you can find some new fish to keep.
Has anyone else noticed that whenever MD says he and Matt are off to the pub for lunch and when they get back they’ll do such and such, and then it cuts to MD saying “Right, so it’s the next day”? 😂😂😂 . Another awesome tank, can’t wait to see the new studio full of finished aquariums.
I always laugh when MD and Matt say "Flo is here". In Canada when you say that or " Aunt Flo is visiting next week" it's code for your period. So it always sounds like the boys are discussing their cycles syncing up lol
This is probably the best Workshop aquascaping youtube channel we have. every video is a new lesson on how you can make it yourself and explore this really vast hobby. Incredible
Hey gents. I live in the Northern Territory and we have rainbow fish everywhere in the wild around here. From billabongs to streams and creeks. The structure is very similar to what the rainbow fish (and others) congrate around in the wild. Well done
I am Australian! Rainbowfish actually live in creeks mostly, and they hang around the roots in the banks- usually with gudgeons (they are good friends). One area they are from locally has tons of vallisneria. I don't think I've ever seen them in lakes, we don't rlly have that many to begin with. Definitely creek/river fish. Beautiful tank, beautiful fish!
We do have a lot of lakes in Australia though they are home to mostly smaller fish due to them seasonally drying out, nothing else can survive in such small amounts of water.
Australian here, Australian Rainbows are predominantly in creeks in my experience and the creeks I’ve caught them in had limited aquatic predators. So they were out in the open, but when skittish they did hide near the banks and root systems. Scape looks great as always guys!!
was legit about to reply with something similar. They do travel up stream occasionally into really shallow creeks. I've seen them in slow flowing creeks way above really shallow pools. The whole creek does dry up from time to time, so thats my only explanation. But yes, they love the open and they hide when a shadow hits the water!
You don’t understand how much I love this build and your scapes in general. This is by far one of my favourite builds you have done. Great job to both Fish Shop Matt and you 🎉
As a Rainbow fish psycho, this was fun to watch. Keep in mind, rainbows are actually QUITE fast swimmers, many of the species come from creeks and river systems, especially the Australian ones. One thing I will highly caution you on is the final small twiggy branches that were added. Rainbows aren't super smart, and when the spare and court, they pay zero attention to their surroundings, so those twiggy branches can be a recipe for injuries. Just a heads up! Otherwise love the overall design!
Absolutely loved the whole video! I really like the chemistry between you two as you go along putting the scape together. The end result is incredible!
The 2 of you working together makes everything that much better. The drama in this scape is stunning. Definitely has that wow factor. Hoping for more collabs soon guys
It's always such a huge pleasure to watch your builds, MD. Double pleasure when you're accompanied by Matt. The tank came out beautiful! I do love the cinamatic at the end too. So soothing to watch. Thank you guys, for another awesome build. The studio is coming along so well!
"Loads of you switch off when I stop talking..." What?! It's lovely to see the fish enjoying the finished scapes, not to mention how beautiful and calming it is. The perfect way to end the videos. I love this channel.
I've been part of several fish clubs and I've never met a friend with the same interests that would come over and enjoy helping me scape a tank. You are a very lucky person to have such a friend in Matt.
I gasped so loud with excitement when I got the notification, my collage teacher asked why I was excited about a bibliography (the work we were doing)😂
Perfectly handy worktable beside the tank and you still put everything on the floor… bending over and over… lol. Guess even though you both acknowledged its existence you both still forgot about it… lol. But the tank looks awesome !! Good job!
Because of you, I’m finally doing my first Planted Tank Build. Seriyu Stone, Ghost Wood, Flourite/Sand. Java Miss glued to the stone and two Anubias Lanceolata Mother Plants from Buce. Not sure what I’m going to stock it with. 42g Rimless with a Twinstar E, Sump Filtration loaded with Ceramic, Filter Floss Pads, Plastic Filtration Pads and a Sicce Syncro 1.5
Turned out great! Wasn't sure in the first place about the big lump of wood in it. After the plants did come in it looked fabulous. Really like the adding of the leaves, really makes everything come together.
Honestly, if you had stopped on the hardscape it would be already one of your best builds so far. The plants added a nice touch, but I honestly LOVED the hardscape by itself. It remembers so much the rivers on Banff (Canada - Alberta).
You guys hit it out of the park, congrats! This is my favorite for 2023. I liked your river scape when you were in your shed at home, but this is amazing with the colours and structure, oh and the fish stand out wonderfully. I truly think you and Matt are soul brothers. 🥰
What an awesome tank! I started keeping aquariums in like 1970/71, at the age of 10 or 11, and after a huge break of decades I'm getting back into the hobby. I'm going to be setting up a nano reef tank, but I can already see that I'm probably also going to have a planted, freshwater tank addiction happening, too. What a fantastic channel.
As an Aussie this tank looks amazing I must say it’s my favourite but I might be a bit biased but I do love all your tanks you have inspired me to get back into the hobby after a long absence thank you.
I absolutely love it, the rainbowfish look gorgeous in there! 😍 I love the collaborations with you and Matt, they're so much fun to watch. I also loved the "very dinosaur-eggy" comment 🤣
I love that you guys stand around and fantasize about what wood does when it falls off and lands in running water. Reminds me of this story about my Uncle Manny...
Boesmani will breed in the mop. Leave it in for a week then take it out. Should result in lots of eggs. Fry are tiny though so its infusoria for some days until they take micro worm / artemia. I have done that with micro dried food, but i suspect live foods would result in better survival rate. After the first week or two they are easy.
I got to be honest; when it was only rocks in the tank I was like “nah…that’s not good at all”. But after the wood went in, I was like; “this is why I watch EVERY video from MD Fish Tanks! Man, you ROCK! 🤘🤘
You may already have this elsewhere, perhaps for patrons, but I would totally vibe to hours' long videos of your various fish tanks. With the post-covid increase of people working from home I have to imagine there's loads of people who have a monitor dedicated to background viewing whilst working, and I would watch hours of just your fish tanks. If you're like me and you take needlessly excessive video of your fish you could put that footage to good use! Love the content.
You and Matt are hilarious, such giggling school girls but we love you. We are ADHD so we totally get you. FOCUS! Wish we could visit your shop. We are in Colorado. Maybe someday. Your scapes are bold and creative. I am taking notes. You have reinforced what I already knew, women (your wife) are better at organizing. LOL. Best to you on your new show room. BTW why not try a few terrariums in the mix…..
Rainbows are literally one of the best aquarium fish! I just found your channel and I'm totally addicted! I only have 2 yellow belly turtles now and I really miss my tropical fish tanks. I am subscribed and loving your work.
Such a beautiful scape. I'm looking forward to watching this one develop over time. I really like the bundle of plants plunked on top of the wood, because as Matt said, that's how they would grow in the wild. In my personal opinion, the more "wild" an aquascape looks, the better it is. Like, I love artistic scapes, especially ones based on landscapes from fantasy films, but the natural looking ones that you do will always be my favorite.
I recently have had to sell my salt water reef tank because my fiancé and myself are downsizing and moving into a 5th wheel camper full time, I believe I could be a great candidate and would love to do something amazing with that little reef tank in our camper! ❤
It is good to see both of you enjoying what you can do and going bigger and better, but please don't forget to do a smaller thing from time to time for those of us who don't have the same resources :-)
I've watched your channel for 2 years but this is my first time to comment just to say "WOOOOWWWW!!!" to your hardscape. That is the best hardscape yet for me.
Another stunning tank watching has started me buying little bits here and there so I can get into plants, I have never had much luck before but the knowledge and advice you and fish shop matt give is amazing 👏 keep it up
I can honestly watch you do this all day... it's so mesmerizing. I absolutely adore how you and Matt get on. When he pops up I know the tank is about to blow me away. Excellent job guys!!!!
Achievement unlocked! New Studio looking epic!! Spectacular build today!! Just an idea - have you thought about maybe putting a UV film on the windows for the algae? Not too tinted. Also, I know its because it's still a bit empty, but some floor mats and foam pads on the ceilings will kill all that left over reverb.
saw FishShopMatt in his natural environment a few days ago, he was busy with customers and they were super happy! Love seeing you both doing the scapes Keep up the great work guys love it!
It's so stunning, really beautiful! The fish seem to really enjoy it as well. I love that you can still see the 'triceratops skull' 😃 Would also love to watch a video about Timmy the turtle when you move his tank!
Beautiful scape! I love how you guys poke fun and keep the video entertaining while still introducing moments for education. Great scape as usual! Studio has really come together.
That is so beautiful! The fish look really happy, too. I did notice you said you were only putting in one otocinclus (SP?) and I just wanted to mention they actually prefer to live in groups- not tight schools, but they’re kind of like Cory cats in that way. He’d probably really appreciate having five or six buddies, and you will see them hang out near each other, and be visible more. I watch nearly all of your videos and this is one of your best! Love the betta tank, too, and seeing how the new studio is coming along. Thank you for sharing your process. It has been so inspiring.
Think that’s one of the best builds you guys have done together. Love these and watching you guys has inspired me to get back into the hobby. Thanks so much to the pair of you.
I find a bit of humor that your Jungle Val Rainbow tank is the inspiration that I’m using for my newest tank and you have completely rescaped it. 😂 Another beautiful tank! I love y’all’s colabs. The betta sorority is looking amazing! ♥️
Bravo! You and Matt have outdone yourselves. This may be my favorite scape yet. So inspiring. I really want to try something like this. Absolutely stunning. Well done!
I nailed it when i said this new studio is going to be epic... That was an epic build. Gorgeous tank MD and Matt. Can't wait for the next setup. Thanks MD.
What a great job MD and Matt. I do watch to the end because I love to here you both talk about the build plants and the fish and how everything works so good together. You always have the proper amount of color in the fish you pick plus the right ones. Thank you both keep up the amazing work.
In the continuing saga of Matt and MD’s epic bromance. 😆 seriously, you guys accomplish such awesome projects together! Which is especially impressive since you both turn into grade school kids the second you hang out.

Very nice Triceratops build! The top plants will help so much and also look good.
Any links for the superfish big LED lights :) great video really enjoyed it
Yes, another movie release for Crazy Zack!

We couldn't walk 🤣
Yeah but who goes to the pub and return and do the work?
That’s what happens when you get to the bar/pub with your good friend and you get into deep conversation over some drinks 😂😂😂
@@MDFishTanks That's what happens when you drink like a fish 🍻
I did notice that 😂😂😂
Your collaborations with Matt have honestly taken your scapes to a new level.

I came looking for this comment after they asked the crowd. 👍
We do have a lot of lakes in Australia though they are home to mostly smaller fish due to them seasonally drying out, nothing else can survive in such small amounts of water.
Have to agree. I've never found one in a lake and have only ever found them in creeks.

cheers Bentley. The twigs are so bendy. There's no strength in them at all so should be ok.
@@MDFishTanks Remember, it's all fun and games, until someone loses an eye...

Best thing about Mondays is an MD video drop! Beautiful setup🤩
I have to say I think you have outdone yourself with this scape. Simply stunning
MD: It doesn't have to be perfect...we can just pile them up.
Also MD: Matt, move that a centimeter to the right, will you?
😂😂
All 3 sides of the scape are so unique in its own. Love it MD and Matt!
"Loads of you switch off when I stop talking..." What?! It's lovely to see the fish enjoying the finished scapes, not to mention how beautiful and calming it is. The perfect way to end the videos. I love this channel.
the synergy of these two is crazy

This tank will age like a fine wine. Great video, MD. Thanks for sharing.
I really love the longer videos, more in depth or getting to know the thought process this way. Can't wait for the next aquarium to be build.
Безумно красиво!!!! Наслаждение для глаз 👀и ❤сердца!!!
Ребята! Вы очень талантливые акваскейперы!!!!
I gasped so loud with excitement when I got the notification, my collage teacher asked why I was excited about a bibliography (the work we were doing)😂
Perfectly handy worktable beside the tank and you still put everything on the floor… bending over and over… lol. Guess even though you both acknowledged its existence you both still forgot about it… lol. But the tank looks awesome !! Good job!
Because of you, I’m finally doing my first Planted Tank Build. Seriyu Stone, Ghost Wood, Flourite/Sand. Java Miss glued to the stone and two Anubias Lanceolata Mother Plants from Buce. Not sure what I’m going to stock it with. 42g Rimless with a Twinstar E, Sump Filtration loaded with Ceramic, Filter Floss Pads, Plastic Filtration Pads and a Sicce Syncro 1.5
Turned out great! Wasn't sure in the first place about the big lump of wood in it. After the plants did come in it looked fabulous. Really like the adding of the leaves, really makes everything come together.
MD and Matt are friendship goals. I don't have friends that nerd out quite as hard to the stuff I nerd out about.
Honestly, if you had stopped on the hardscape it would be already one of your best builds so far. The plants added a nice touch, but I honestly LOVED the hardscape by itself. It remembers so much the rivers on Banff (Canada - Alberta).

I love that Matt is a part of these builds. Enjoyed seeing him when he was in the shop, seems like a nice guy.
Beautiful and natural aquascape! The fish seem so happy with all the different places to explore and hide. Love this!
You two have energies play out of one another, and it works so beautifully, I enjoy it when both of you are together
You guys are the most entertaining team in the tank building videos!
What an awesome tank!
I started keeping aquariums in like 1970/71, at the age of 10 or 11, and after a huge break of decades I'm getting back into the hobby. I'm going to be setting up a nano reef tank, but I can already see that I'm probably also going to have a planted, freshwater tank addiction happening, too.

This is my favourite set up by far. Flow and stillness love it.
I absolutely love it, the rainbowfish look gorgeous in there! 😍 I love the collaborations with you and Matt, they're so much fun to watch. I also loved the "very dinosaur-eggy" comment 🤣
You guys are AMAZING together! Love the ideas y'all come up with ❤️ This river/ lake tank is beautiful 😍
Ooh new MD Studio videos. He is a carpenter. A electrician. Aquascape plant, Fisn Guy!!!! LOVE ❤ it!!!!! Chicago, illinois.
Soon to get a Fluval Flex 123 and do my first planted tank. Thanks for all the pointers and wish me luck. Cheers.
I love that you guys stand around and fantasize about what wood does when it falls off and lands in running water. Reminds me of this story about my Uncle Manny...
21:11 after years of MD asking Gorilla Glue to sponsor, Superfish jumps in for the win! Good for you Superfish! 😎
Boesmani will breed in the mop. Leave it in for a week then take it out. Should result in lots of eggs. Fry are tiny though so its infusoria for some days until they take micro worm / artemia.

I just can't unsee the triceratops, I love it so much. What a beautiful tank!
The two of you working together is just proper awesome! Beautiful build. Love you guys.
Every video with Matt and MD is pure gold. Gorgeous tank, I lost when when you started with the Jurassic Park theme. Very fun vid, thanks guys!
I got to be honest; when it was only rocks in the tank I was like “nah…that’s not good at all”. But after the wood went in, I was like; “this is why I watch EVERY video from MD Fish Tanks! Man, you ROCK! 🤘🤘
No thanks scammer. You’re not even good at mimicking MD’s channel. 🤣🤣

Thought the tank looked great with just the hard scape. With the plants and botanicals…. Wow! Absolutely breathtaking.
Achievement unlocked! New Studio looking epic!! Spectacular build today!! Just an idea - have you thought about maybe putting a UV film on the windows for the algae? Not too tinted.
Also, I know its because it's still a bit empty, but some floor mats and foam pads on the ceilings will kill all that left over reverb.
Who’d a thought that the piss break from Bath to Plymouth is the most important aquascape spot on Earth. Guys, you’re Gods!!! DON’T EVER STOP!!!
You have naild it mate very similar to Rainbow fish habitat in Australia
saw FishShopMatt in his natural environment a few days ago, he was busy with customers and they were super happy! Love seeing you both doing the scapes Keep up the great work guys love it!
LOVE the hard scape in this one! the colour of the leaves you added made a nice impact too.
guys both of those tanks are out of this world
It's so stunning, really beautiful! The fish seem to really enjoy it as well. I love that you can still see the 'triceratops skull' 😃 Would also love to watch a video about Timmy the turtle when you move his tank!
Your builds are always amazing but this has got to be my Favorite ❤
Beautiful scape! I love how you guys poke fun and keep the video entertaining while still introducing moments for education. Great scape as usual! Studio has really come together.
That is so beautiful! The fish look really happy, too. I did notice you said you were only putting in one otocinclus (SP?) and I just wanted to mention they actually prefer to live in groups- not tight schools, but they’re kind of like Cory cats in that way. He’d probably really appreciate having five or six buddies, and you will see them hang out near each other, and be visible more. I watch nearly all of your videos and this is one of your best! Love the betta tank, too, and seeing how the new studio is coming along. Thank you for sharing your process. It has been so inspiring.
There are about 8 otos. He meant one was in with the cories. The others were in the first jug with the bristlenose
@@MDFishTanks Oh, I see. I should have known you guys had it all under control. :-). Looking forward to your next video!
I've watched them all.. this is the best tank you've done
Outstanding build and end result. The rugged beauty is perfect. I could look at the hardscape and plant detail as much as I enjoy watching the fish.
Think that’s one of the best builds you guys have done together. Love these and watching you guys has inspired me to get back into the hobby. Thanks so much to the pair of you.
I’m a new fish parent and I’m always in love with all your videos. Now I got addicted to this expensive hobby! Lol
I find a bit of humor that your Jungle Val Rainbow tank is the inspiration that I’m using for my newest tank and you have completely rescaped it. 😂 Another beautiful tank! I love y’all’s colabs. The betta sorority is looking amazing! ♥️
Awesome build MD. You're really growing as a creator and this build with Matt showcases that.
Thank you for doing a tank that can be viewed from each side, very inspirational.
This is the most wholesome bromance on RUclips.
Thank you for your videos! You are an inspiration to me! Love your builds!
I love it so much when you two do video 🥰
Another gorgeous tank. I love it! Your new studio is awesome! I can't wait to see what you come up with next.
Was legitimately staying up late hoping for this!
MD and fishshop Matt killed it again with another banging build keep smashing it both of you much love ❤️
Bravo! You and Matt have outdone yourselves. This may be my favorite scape yet. So inspiring. I really want to try something like this. Absolutely stunning. Well done!
Peninsula tanks are so cool! The scape and fish look amazing every fish in there are huge!
I nailed it when i said this new studio is going to be epic... That was an epic build. Gorgeous tank MD and Matt. Can't wait for the next setup. Thanks MD.
Please consider posting long videos of your tanks with ambient music. I would watch one of the big tanks for hours. Beautiful.
the new tank looks great!! But that 60 Betta tank with the red is really speaking to me!
Matt and you are a SUPERDUO
What a great job MD and Matt. I do watch to the end because I love to here you both talk about the build plants and the fish and how everything works so good together. You always have the proper amount of color in the fish you pick plus the right ones. Thank you both keep up the amazing work.
In the continuing saga of Matt and MD’s epic bromance. 😆 seriously, you guys accomplish such awesome projects together! Which is especially impressive since you both turn into grade school kids the second you hang out.
So enjoyable to watch 2 lovely guys playing with sticks and rocks and at the end creating something absolutely beautiful ❤
