Im re-doing my neon tetra blackwater aquarium. I love having a blackwater tank next to the discus, but I feel I can do much better than the previous setup. Hope you enjoy 😊

What kind of tree were your twigs from? And what kinds of food do you feed your shrimp?🦐
I like the tanto
What kind of setup do you use for your water changes if I may ask?
Where can I get the python attachment? I hate kicking up my plants every Sunday
MD, in this video u used your old version of filling & draining the tank. Can you link me to the video in which you explained where you got it / how to make one? Would like to give one to my husband for Christmas.
Thank you!
watching this with morning coffee after finishing my last university finals of my last semester feeling like 😌😌😌😌
Congrats
Adventures are just beginning! Well done for finishing!
Congratulations 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Congrats on making it through all that stress!!
Congratulations!
I don't know why but the discs always crack me up 🤣 them side eyeing everything dad does is just 😙👌✨
Every time I watch his video I can feel that he really cares for his fish not just the look of the tanks! He always treats them with caution even when moving buckets with fish in them! 😊👍
This tank is so calming to me I absolutely adore it. It’s like all the neons settled down as soon as they were placed in 🥰
Even if I wasn't interested in aquariums I'd still have to watch your videos. You always bring a smile to my face.
You really have a natural talent for scapes. I can't never get enough of scapes. Thanks
Absolutely in love with the wood structure you made here. You never fail to impress me
This tank is so calming to me I absolutely adore it. It’s like all the neons settled down instantly when they were put in🥰
Been keeping fish for over 35 years I had COVID bad last year and lost some interest in my own aquarium watching your videos has made me set up my 450L display tank again planted with some tetras and other small community fish, plants and fish doing well👍
I’d love to see a short of just that tank with the rest of the room dark. No lights except this tank’s light. 😎
Komposisi kayu dimataku bagus.
Terimakasih sudah membagikan pengalaman membuat Blackwater untuk tetra.
Insanely nice! You are a scaping freak, so good! Love your commentary, very entertaining and informative. You are inspiring! I think I may give a black water tank a try. Thanks for sharing and keep them coming.
Back in the 80s, when a kid, I used to have a few tanks and actually was doing aquascapes, without realizing it by collecting rocks and sunk wood that I'd find in the rivers of Brazil, where I live. I started watching these videos as I want to setup an aquarium for my daughter and so much have changed since then, I'm fascinated with it. Really inspiring.
You should get a plant growing up top so it's root system grows throughout the wood, that would be awesome. Even a potato sprout would work well and be a bit of extra help with the nitrates.
Yes! That or some floaters of some kind. I love floaters on blackwater tanks. Idk if it’s like that in nature
Water lettuce/cabbage: it sucks out nitrites from the tank. Got mine from local nursery/hardware store. Bonus - keeps down algae. - Careful those with covers to their tanks - doesn't like its leaves with humidity. Turbulence from filter (and air stone) should keep its growth in check. More hiding places for small fish; fry and green roughage.
I always liked neon tetras, but how they look in a blackwater aquarium is AMAZING!!!
No plants!? Thought I was never gonna see that in your studios:))
Blackwater is like a dead decaying part of the river, that's why there non. I wish one day I can make my own blackwater aquarium 🥴
Yes he have a tank with plants
@@ThePanda013 gotta have a couple floater plants and some moss or "weedy" looking plants to really sell the still, organic river look 😉
I love, love, love what you did here and your enthusiasm is infectious really, you make me want to go out and buy up all this aquarium stuff and get to creating, you do awesome work, dude. Love it!😊
Your videos are so underrated and just breathtaking.
Really
@Little Kingdom, who's underrating my buddy's videos? I'll slap 'em right upside their thick skulls.
@@Leib33 underrated means good.😂
How come 'underrated'? MD's got 285K followers.
I absolutely adore your videos. I've never had a fish tank in my life, but it's a topic that really interests me, and you make it so accessible and fun :)

MD wasn't lying when he said "little sieve" 😂
Just a stunning and atmospheric aquascape..keep them coming please, I copy them all the time, thanks MD
The ultimate 3D background. Nice one!
It looks just magic ! You're absolutely right, if you got it, you just know where to place the stuff in order to create a special effect. Greetings from Germany
Love the peace your videos bring
This is the perfect example of a snapshot of nature!! It’s just so perfect!!❤️❤️
Hlo
I just love blackwater. Absolutely beautiful tank.
I loooooove it!!! I love how you’re using more height in your scapes!
Oh man I love neon-tetras! I want to have some of my own some day.
Finished my Finals last night. Now it’s 7 am, I am making coffee and breakfast 🍳 while watching this video. Will be heading to the pet store later today to purchase my fish for my 40 gallon. So excited. Love your content, it always gives me a great start to my day.
Amazing content! Keep doing you. ❤️😊
You are so patient so calm
What a wonderful person
Growing up in the amazon, this tank really takes me back down memory lane .. thank you sir.
Wow that is stunning. Breathtaking. You are inspiring and the passion you put into your creations is amazing and contagious! 🙏
Admiration is a feeling furthest away from understanding.
best tank i’ve literally ever seen :O so amazing!! every time you top urself!
All I can say is WOW, my fave so far, especially 'the release'...you got dis MD, well played...!!!
easily one of my favorites you’ve done!!
When I first started watching your videos I did not like them. Idk why I can’t explain it. Now however, I really enjoy them. Outstanding job capturing the natural look of their environment. Beautiful scape
Probably the best tank I've seen you do thus far. And yes, I have seen practically every video you posted.
Simply beautiful! The whole tank setup, video and music is very well done. It is very inspiring!
Owh YES!! This scape got absolutley awesome!!
Great build! Where I live in Tasmania the river water is the colour of tea from the button grass and peat bogs in the high country. If I wanted to achieve this effect, I would definately go to my local creek!
спасибо большое за красоту и за твое умение в оформлении аквариумов.
another gorgeous tank MD - well done! Stunning!
Imperfect perfection - that's what nature is all about. Yet another great video mate!
I love Blackwater tank because it look natural :)))))
Awesome dude. When it comes to aqua scraping, You rock dude.
Now that’s a proper blackwater. Excellent work!
I love the background full of wood, it's impressive. Great job 👏
love re-watching this episode
Really inspirational. This looks very much like the tetras’ natural habitat. If you haven’t talked about this, I’d love to hear how you maintain a natural “cluttered” tank like this over the long haul, especially how you vacuum the substrate around all the leaf litter and sticks.
late reply, but he has said he doesn't gravel vac any of his tanks
Leaves can be removed and replaced monthly or you can let them break down. If taking them out, just vac before you put more in
I have no words for you man you are outstanding I mean watching this tank it makes me spellbound.
I’ve watched literally all your videos !!
I love dramatic scapes this is soo cool.
Love it, natural, beautiful....and I think I'd like the filter on the right side😆
I really enjoy that hardscape! Great job!!
That looks absolutely stunning. Was still quite unsure about black water tanks, as I really like the lush green tanks, but tbh this scape and fish combo has changed my mind hahaha
When the first time i see the video is look like something else . And then when i play it wow. Its look amazing . I love your design about tank fish. Reallly naturely
Your fish tank build guides are your best videos!!!
I love how curious the discus are. always in the background watching :D
I think I need to do another black water tank! Maybe one day my scapes will look this good!
Hiiii
Huge fan bro
Love your Channel and your Videos!!!
I love the scape! The neon tetras look awesome especially with that amount of tannins.
Love to see glowlight tetras in there . The orange would pop!
He alrady has a black water tank with glowlight tetras. He post it a few weeks ago😁👍
new thing for me to try as a new aquascape user. thanks for the video, very motivating. greetings from Indonesia 🇮🇩
Great stuff MD, love the black water tanks you create. 👍🌱🐟
wonderful love the color with the tetras
I love your densely planted tanks but have to say this is fantastic.
Love that you are putting links!!!
Them discus look amazing
Looks amazing! Nicely done! Those little guys look well at home
This looks awesome I'm about to start a new 20 gallon and something like this would be a fantastic display tank
i'm so jealous of that kinda mountainous looking bogwood scape, so beautiful
This reminds me of home. We have natural blackwater with white savanah sand substrates. Our people think it has healing power because of the various leafs that cause the blackwater. We have various fish that thrive in these waters and Tetras are one of those species
Amazing scape and so low tech. Neons are popular for a reason; they look good and active.
Much better md. looks more natural. Skills are coming along nicely. I’m more into biotopes too
This is spectacular, well done!
Looking swoll man nice gains🤟🏻 love the videos inspired me to make my first planted tank a while back you’ve got and exquisite imagination for this art and I love your passion🤟🏻
I think this is your best layout so fare md. Great work
I love the look of this.
Wow, the first tank I haven't seen you put live plants in!! 🤯
really nice
Thanks for taking the time to make the video and share it
Looks awesome! I can't help but laugh at how the discus just follow him around.
All I can is that I'm such a big fan of you and your channel!
This is an art and you are an artist i think.
Magnifique, bravo. Congratulations from France.
Wow it’s beautiful
I'm so happy to see the video, I hope I can also make an aquascape like this
The simplicity of this tank is stunningly beautiful
Keep it up with these naturalistic tanks! So much better than any “aquascaped” tank!
A PIECE OF ART MD
Yessss, again, just when I need some joy your video pops up 😂
Hello.
You are creating very nice aquariums. Your every project is amazing. In front of your every tank can sit down and hours by hours watching them getting full relax. I like it.
Really worked out well. Pleasantly surprised the neons "pop" as well as they do in the blackwater.
Nice video. Brillant tank !
Love it 😍 looking absolutely beautiful
Could've added some black neon tetras as well. Video quality is amazing!
I just got some a couple of weeks ago as tank mates for my male betta. I never noticed them before, but they are adorable! I have neons with my female sorority.
@@augustbrown9711 That's great!
Your videos bring joy to my day, super job
Dude i love your scaping, ive not even got a tank but im just mesmorized by yours 👍🐟👌
"... the finner sticks..." love it xD great scape :)
