I was slightly shocked around 17:00 when you added the branches coming forward, it made it pop and look so gorgeous. Well done on this one MD! Can't wait to see this planted in the next one!!!!
I loved how MD was casually (and literally) throwing rounded rocks around, in a glass aquarium ... that didn't cause my bottom to clench at aaaaallllllllllllllllll =DDDDDDD
I personally preferred the scape without all the detail sticks. I often have similar critiques during previous builds, then when it comes to the end result, I think, I was so wrong. Hopefully I am again on this occasion. Enjoying the series so far.
Learnt something new. Macroalgae in a coral reef tank can’t grow properly because they grow better under freshwater light and with moderate amounts of phosphate and nitrate. Hope that helps MD
@@Ryuga_dx it is. Everything eucaryotic that uses photosynthesis is a plant (what do you think that vascular plants evolved from). You've guessed it algae like organisms that used plastids from cyanobacteria.
That is the general shape tank I'm looking for, square but not as high as it is side to side. I've a LOT of ''lucky bamboo'' I want to use in a tank but most are far too high [they'd be under water, not good] and trying to find one that is shallower isn't easy. I'm in Ireland so popping into Maidenhead Aquatics isn't an option unfortunately. Can't wait to see this when it's finished. It's going to be fabulous.
Looks awesome and what a tank. Are you doing anything with that left hand piece of wood. The piece going into the sand at the front isn’t hidden by the rock and it looks odd.
How do you know how much weight can be safely supported by the glass? I know it's a double layer of glass, but that looks like a huge amount of weight in there?? 🤔😧
Is it just me thinking I can’t believe your in that tank on the substrate in your dirty shoes you have been walking round in? 4:56 what if you have dog shit on them and you didn’t know

Ahhh, back to pinned comments. Video 64 of asking for a tank with some freshwater dolphinfish please.
I was slightly shocked around 17:00 when you added the branches coming forward, it made it pop and look so gorgeous. Well done on this one MD! Can't wait to see this planted in the next one!!!!

I love how MD is casually training the next youtube fish shop martin 😝
Just got home from the shop and that tank is going to be awesome
Great job Martin and MD
Such an exciting build! Love seeing this tank coming together, and kudos to Martin for all of his planning!
I love this channel so so much!! This is also a great collaboration!
You are back to bigger and grander things. I love these projects, MD.
Уже заметно насколько будет красиво!!
Can’t wait for plants and fish! The tank looks amazing so far!
Hi MD!
Could we get an update on the saltwater aquarium soon? I would love to know how it's settling in these days
Greetings from the Netherlands!
What a treat .. EPISODE 2 so quickly. 😊
good content as usuall, looking foreward to the end result!
The set up for the thumbnail 😂 love that. The Scape looks great.
Really cool build. Especially because of the shape of the tank. Really interesting to see how this build turns out.
so hyped for plants fish and everything will be amazing ....
Love the fish selection!!! AWESOME
Very exciting to have such a large space to work with. It will take those fish about a month to realise they are actually in a tank!
I like the comparison to Bob Ross. You keep to your methods and it always turns out different and it is relaxing yet interesting to watch.
it honestly makes my day when I come on TH-cam and see that you have posted the second part of making this fish tank. ❤
Freue mich schon auf den nächsten Teil! 😀
Had a few good chuckles😂, classic of a MD video
this build is going to be awesome
Excited to see this progress!
This is going to be awsome!!! ❤❤ Can't wait!!!
Looking great! Good progress already!
I've always thought that MD looks just like Bob Ross. It's an alarming likeness.
That scatter gravel will all disappear after a month once the fish start turning over the sand..😂😂 the Fish selection is going to really pop..❤
When you climbed into it I did a double take. But then how else do you scape a tank of "absolute unit status" like this without doing so?
This tank needs an army of corydara's
All different kinds too
200+
Love the bts at the end
I personally preferred the scape without all the detail sticks. I often have similar critiques during previous builds, then when it comes to the end result, I think, I was so wrong. Hopefully I am again on this occasion. Enjoying the series so far.
Amazing looking tank
Just wonderful.❤
That guy from the shop is a real livewire.
Great use of the Metal Gear alert sound effect!
Looks awesome guys…
Paint the back of the tank black! Love the content!
I think the rocks, pebbles and gravel are 3 totally unmatching shapes and sizes. Plus, I would have swapped the 2 trunks.
Learnt something new. Macroalgae in a coral reef tank can’t grow properly because they grow better under freshwater light and with moderate amounts of phosphate and nitrate. Hope that helps MD
Well duh, as plants need to photosynthesize to survive.
@ ‘well duh’ macroalgae isn’t a plant. Smart guy
@@Ryuga_dx it is. Everything eucaryotic that uses photosynthesis is a plant (what do you think that vascular plants evolved from). You've guessed it algae like organisms that used plastids from cyanobacteria.
How’s Martin’s EZ-pond doing? Been waiting so long for an update!!
That is the general shape tank I'm looking for, square but not as high as it is side to side.

let’s go!! keep up the content
"Sorry Martin"... continues to get it on the floor... 🤣
What are those shoes? They look cool but I can't see well enough to tell what they are
Keep em videos cominggggg
what happened to Rockpool series?
Is this guy the New Fish shop Mat? Haha
15:06 Doggo has no time for your shenanigans
why would you block the foreground stick under the front of the stump its a focal piont
Looks awesome and what a tank. Are you doing anything with that left hand piece of wood. The piece going into the sand at the front isn’t hidden by the rock and it looks odd.
Is standing inside the tank and packing that sand down gonna cause an issue?
How do you know how much weight can be safely supported by the glass? I know it's a double layer of glass, but that looks like a huge amount of weight in there?? 🤔😧
Awesome!
That scatter gravel will all disappear after a month once the fish start turning over the sand..😂😂
Damn that Tank is almost a Pond 😂
What is the crate on the back right side being used for?
It is being used to cover openings for the filtration system.
Does mat still work there
No, he is a full time TH-camr now with his own channel.
You missed an amazing opportunity to show off your crocs and socks in this video 😂
Oh my gosh, what about all the germs all over the bottom of your feet?
Hy MD thit you whype youre feet fore entering tha tank 😂😂😂😂
What happened to whatsisname? The puffer? Is he going back in?
im pretty sure the puff died.. i also somehow managed to forget his name.. if you asked me 30 seconds ago i would have known but oh well
Buster unfortunately passed away a while back and I believe the stingers were re homed
@@martinsadler427 tyvm
RIP Buster
the tools for the big pice of wood would be a chainsaw and if needed a motorised plane.
immm tooo extitedddddddddddddddddd gve me eeee the full build
We’re as the puffer and flat fish gone
The puffer passed away so the Reys went to another place don't know where
I think the puffer died from old age, he was 11 (apologies if I'm wrong)
Under an hour club
I cringed so hard when you tossed those rocks 😬
Is it just me thinking I can’t believe your in that tank on the substrate in your dirty shoes you have been walking round in? 4:56 what if you have dog shit on them and you didn’t know
😂 A slight trace of dog poo in 2.500 liters of water? Have anyone ever told you what fish does to the water?
I'd like to think I don't walk around with dog shit on my shoes 😂
@MDFishTanks No you're a civilized man you step in dog poo with bare feet! 🤣🤣
👍👏🤝
2nd comment🎉❤
1st!
Can you pleasy aquascape a small tank with everything you hate? Fake plants, bright colored pebles,... And explain why you don't like it 😂
That's a waste of money for something he's never gonna put fish in.
I dropped my phone in a bucket of top off water while watching this 🥲
