    About 2 weeks ago, @Fish Shop Matt messaged me saying "pea puffer aquarium?" and I instantly replied "YES!"...Now, I did think he meant a little nano with a couple of fish or something like that. But it quickly evolved into a 330L tank with 100 Pea Puffers haha. We went for something very different on this one, trying to create a cool perspective effect with the bog wood. I think it turned out pretty cool and the pea's seem to love the structure.

      Matt is probably the first person i've met in real life that has been into fishtanks (local of course). This was all because he stopped me when I left the shop one day and just started chatting. I didn't realise he knew the channel until we had been talking for ages so that's when we started talking about doing filming together and we just went from there. We are also both massive geeks as well so it's inevitable that we get along.

      Very true! One thing I’ve noticed (even years before covid) most of the interesting pet shops/aquarium shops began closing en masse around NYC where I live! I’ve been told it’s because the economy has tanked and the exotic pet/fish keeping hobby is the first thing to suffer. When I was younger there were many large shops each catering to very specific interests; fresh water, marine aquaria, reptiles, exotic bird shops, etc., etc.. During the past 10 yrs all that remain in town here are the “big box” US shops (“PetCo, PetSmart, etc) with 80-90% of their product being dog/cat related. Their fish department is pretty sad compared to years gone by. I was wondering if the same is true outside NYC/outside the US in general(?)

    I recently set up a 40 breeder in my office at home. It was my first time really trying on an aquascape. My kid told me it looks like one of the tanks on youtube that I watch. It was such a great compliment, and in my mind he means it looks like MD's tank, lol.

    As a pea puffer nerd, i totally agree with their association with glowlight danios. Perfect combo. Too fast to be fins nipped, so active they stop intra-puffer agressions, and not too much eager to eat so puffer still have food to dance around.
    Tried many associations with pea puffers. Glowlight danios are the best.

    Hey I was looking to see what set up you guys used, but the product link takes me a tank that is the size of a man’s chest. What kit did you guys use?

    Amazing video! I don't like the drilled bottom. I am sure the in- and outlets are safe, but i had some leaking filters in the past therefore I prefer traditional U-shaped outlet with a small hole just a few cm below the water level so air can enter and interrupt the siphon... The difference between 20 and 300 litres is significant if its on your floor!

    I’ve been using the fluval 307, a step smaller than the one you’re using, and if I ever put up my other 55g again I’m using that filter for it too. It’s been running my community for around 2 years and I hardly have to even clean it. Never had any problems and if the power flickers it just starts right back up.

    I want to move there just for Matt's shop! I miss specialty pet stores. I'm really disappointed that after covid all we have left is chain stores in my town.

      Matts shop is a chain store. There are like 140 of them in the country

      Oops I'm a dullard then, what would be an online site for them where I could read more into their stores.

    I had a similar experience with some fluorite sand I put in for roots. It was basically chocolate milk for an immensely long amount of time before I rinsed most of it out. Even then I had to run a filter overnight with nothing but floss in it.

    great idea (re)using cheap gravel inside baggies, i will totally do that with my current redesign, to rise the bed and get more pronounced elevation at the center of comp.

    12:30 "you used to be cool". Don't worry fish shop matt, I have that bumper sticker on the back of my mini van. It's a very cool van. I swear.
