Move the last 2 mollys with the rest ... put your sword tails in the 8 foot ... and redo the carpet tank in pygmy corycats emerald eye rasporas, and honey gouramis. You should get electric blue jack dempseys!!....
morning just started watching you was gonna get a saltwater tank but now thinking of getting aquascaper could you recommand a tank and also can you mix the fish up ive notice you only keep the same breed in a tank and its best to use co2 thank you
Thank you for the knowledge. I’ve been out of the hobby for about 15yrs but just bought a 300 gallon acrylic tank (I totally blame you😂). We spent about 4 hours sanding and buffing out any scratches. It’s reef ready but we’re staying with freshwater and I’d like it to look like your 8’ tank. I really appreciate all the advice.
I’ve been watching you for years and have been checking in now and again. Last month I caved and finally bought a tank. I now have 2 tanks and I’m working on my third. I used to have 2 tanks when I was about 14 but it didn’t go very well. Probably because your channel didn’t exist yet :) I had no real direction back then and felt quite defeated so thank you for reigniting my passion and teaching me the many things I wish I knew when I was 14. I’m 21 now and I think this really is a lifelong hobby
A good tip when they have babies is to leave them with the parents, but make sure there is always a little light on around the tank, also at night. i usually have my light set to 1-2% brightness on at night (blue light only) This means that the parents can see their own young at all times, so you avoid them eating them themselves. and that they can defend them from other fish. when they have reached a good size, you can turn off the light again at night. that way, I always get a lot of babies out of it when my fish have babies.
Aquafleur gets the best advertising for free. If MD was greedy, he'd make these plant farms fight for the opportunity to sponsor his videos. Stay humble! Beautiful scape🙏
@@MDFishTanks How to know suitable light for my planted aquarium. and we can use a flat LED light for planted aquarium. We can use that light to how to use how kind of light use. Please make a video sir ❤❤❤❤❤
Love this "planted contemporary" look - going to be aiming for something similar in a 500L when it arrives in a few weeks. Got some massive feature driftwood that's going to look amazing with a bit of anubias on it and a few lava rocks.
Absolutely stunning MD I can remember watching you when you was in the garden shed it really is unbelievable how far you have come you should be really proud.❤❤
@@Only1Sosa.another good one for breeding vids is marks aquatics, a chap from Wales tho he doesn’t post much anymore, pretty sure I’ve even heard keeping fish simple talking about his breeding vids b4
He 👏has 👏 a 👏 plan 👏 I love bingewatching your vids! Thanks for working so hard to provide awesome content! Fav channel to help me relax and spark my inspiration and creativity!
Love this simple way of scaping a tank. I'd like to see you do a nano-tank in the same way as a 'starter' video. It'd be great to be able to share it with beginners,
You are so lucky to catch those two like that 😂 I put in a net and they disappear completely. They literally dig themselves into the substrate to hide.
I’ve also bred a few batches and kept what I thought was the best . And my new stud of a male one is an absolute beast and electric blue from mouth to tail. Gorgeous.
7:00 you did great. I used to be obsessed with fine finishes on things I built (I worked in joinery for years), but these days I think the best thing you can do is just build. You did it, and a lot of people didn't. That's a huge success in and of itself. Even better though, you did a nice job. I always tell people: you won't get good at projects like this without trying first. I'm sure you had some ideas that wouldn't work, or have tried building stuff that didn't work. That's what it's all about. Wood working TH-cam might convince some of us otherwise, but it's a total mess. You do a great job of showing people you can do things without being pretentious or over-the-top about it. I mean, some of your scapes are crazy, but you keep it real for most of us a lot of the time. You might not realize it, but showing people a cabinet you built might be even better inspiration, and more realistic inspiration at that, than a ton of builders on TH-cam. 9:35 what kind of stones are these? Did I miss it? I can't seem to find you mentioning what they are. They look great. 10:11 Soak it with glue? In this economy?
(This, lol, i need to do this type of scape. Glue n go. It works.) I always tell myself, I'll just watch one and then go to sleep. Sigh. LOL! Lies. Though I do have a meeting tomorrow, so I need to just watch this and catch up on the newest with coffee in the morning. ☕️
I’d love to see what you do with a tank that has a smaller footprint but more vertical space. I think it could make for some interesting scape and species choices.
22:45 plecos are not just chewing on algae but in fact on wood!! it seems not essential but it wouldnt hurt either. just place it under/behind rocks where only the plecos can access it and you cant see it (to keep the rocks only scape)
I have a big male Bristlenose that is a pervert! He just won’t stop! He tears up my tank constantly. I’ve had to tear the tank down almost completely several times to get the babies out. I can send him to you if you want. I’ll put him in bubble wrap so he doesn’t break on the flight over.
I've constantly got albino bn babies and 2 of my beautiful angels have paired up i have 40 plus 2 week old fry in a tank and she has spawned again so they have wrigglers now it's constant
5:34 haha him sucking on the tube unlocked a memory of when I was little and we had a couple fish tanks. Drank my share of aquarium water, doing water changes. 😂
The hand pump on my siphon broke ages ago and I’ve procrastinated getting a new one. It’s so long I’ve never come close to getting water in my mouth. Till Saturday… 🤦🏼♀️ Kid distracted me right when I was getting it started and sure enough I was choking on fish water a second later.
I bet if you put your aquasoil/root tabs in a mesh bag so the acara can’t disturb the nutrients even if they excavate the sand on top it won’t be a huge problem. Could put s line of mesh bags in the back for stems and then just rely on epiphytes in the front and pothos to fo the heavy lifting for nutrient export.
4:20: I was thinking to myself ... " Why would MD want to pull that tank apart ? it looks great ... " And then I remembered ... " Oh yeah, the Acara's like to dig ..." lol 🤣🤤🤣
Great concept to be able to pull out and replace the hardscape easily for cleaning the tank! Looks really nice. Would floating plants be appropriate in there for a bit more cover and help with keeping the water clean?
I agree it´s a nice cabinet. I´ve got my Superfish 90 sitting on a Juwel Lido cabinet. The cabinet´s surface is a little wider (1 cm) but they're easy to put together and do the job. And is actually cheaper here than a Superfish cabinet.
In the wild they lay their eggs on large Catawba or Almond leaves digging is a last resort for them it also allows them to move their eggs around easily.
Also curious about this. As a kid I found an awesome piece of driftwood along Lake Ontario and with all the jovial ignorance of being a teen just tossed it into water and it worked fine lol. Now I'd be very interested in learning more about how to test stones for fish safety as I've found a lot of pretty stuff hiking that would be neat, but knowing how badly it can all go and not wanting to harm my fish or inverts or plants, I can't just chuck it in lol.
I’ve been seeing 15 gallon tall tanks on the internet lately, they seem like a challenge to scape. Want to try your hand? It would be interesting to see what you come up with and how you stock it.
Cichlid's are funny in that if they are happy, they *will* breed. It's not a question of if they will breed, but when. If they feel safe and are well fed, fry will be the result.
Nice video! My Electric Blue Acara is doing great. I am still waiting for my Electric Blue Acara t-shirt from your merchandise website. I am not sure of the problem.

Is there enough swim space for them dude? Seems a little cramped. Maybe more sand as mentioned above. I’m a rookie so 🤷🏼♂️. Stunning build though I must say.
I was planning on stripping my 5 ft tank down this weekend moving it and changin scape but nope my angels decided to spawn again a load of wigglers in the tank and another fry tsnk with 2 week old angel fry they gave me before. Wish i could snip the anubias leaf off with wigglers still on and put them in fry tank but im not sure if tiny 2 week old angel fry would eat the new fry when there free swimming?
My ivanacara bimaculata keep breeding, and I've been able to catch two of the fry before they get eaten. I need to find a way to catch the fry next time without destroying the tank
These big stones you use. What do you call them? Whenever i google to try find them i can only get large pebbles nowhere near size of these. I want to change from dragon stone to these
if i were you i wld do guppies. come in alot of variety great community fish in my opinion so fits a begineer who maybe would want to try getting new fish after awhile

YAY!! Acara updates inc!!:)
Time for a tutorial on how to make a stand!
In the wild they lay their eggs on large Catawba or Almond leaves digging is a last resort for them it also allows them to move their eggs around easily.
Have you ever or have any advice on collecting hardscape from nature like wood or rocks from the beach ??
Also curious about this. As a kid I found an awesome piece of driftwood along Lake Ontario and with all the jovial ignorance of being a teen just tossed it into water and it worked fine lol. Now I'd be very interested in learning more about how to test stones for fish safety as I've found a lot of pretty stuff hiking that would be neat, but knowing how badly it can all go and not wanting to harm my fish or inverts or plants, I can't just chuck it in lol.
I’ve been seeing 15 gallon tall tanks on the internet lately, they seem like a challenge to scape. Want to try your hand? It would be interesting to see what you come up with and how you stock it.
floating plants must be always present in breeding tank in order to give them a sort of close environment
Great stuff....keep it coming
11:51 " Living Ornaments " 79 or 80 !
1 million babies and one million subs !!!
Just have to start the tank with a plan for fish!
Only MD’s “grime” algae looks like intentional carpet plant spreading.
they dig up the sand to put the babies in the hole when they come. plus they put some sand on the eggs
Will you ever do a brackish tank?
Cichlid's are funny in that if they are happy, they *will* breed. It's not a question of if they will breed, but when. If they feel safe and are well fed, fry will be the result.
A little off topic, have you tried Heteranthera Zosterifolia? Stargrass as a carpet plant?
It would look interesting
I like the inlet/oulet set up!! What system is this or is it your own set up?
I reckon if you just adjusted your normal nutrient base to capping layer ratio you could have still had a proper planted scape
Dont you need a sponge on that inlet? Might suck some fry up.
Nice video! My Electric Blue Acara is doing great. I am still waiting for my Electric Blue Acara t-shirt from your merchandise website. I am not sure of the problem.
I'm excited for the breeding ark of md fish tanks
What pool filter sand do you use? We're looking at capping our aquasoil with it but not sure what grade or brand to go with.
Bristlenose need wood not for food but for digestion, I believe...
MD where did you get the round rocks from I’ve been looking in my local Maidenhead aquatics but no sign on them 🙄
Where do you get your filter pickup and outlet from mate I can't seam too find them in any aquatics centers .
I really love the unique scape of chunks' tank. Maybe don't take everything out, just redo some part while keeping the scape same.
How to know suitable light for my planted aquarium.
and we can use a flat LED light for planted aquarium. We can use that light to how to use how kind of light use. Please make a video sir ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Excited
MD,
Loving this tank (of course!). Question: That thingamajig valve and elbow you use to fill up the tank, did you buy that somewhere (if so, where, what's the name of it) or is that one of your creations?
What size tank is the breeding tank?
It came out beautiful.
Is there enough swim space for them dude? Seems a little cramped. Maybe more sand as mentioned above. I’m a rookie so 🤷🏼♂️. Stunning build though I must say.
Diggin up the sand is a courting behavior.
I was planning on stripping my 5 ft tank down this weekend moving it and changin scape but nope my angels decided to spawn again a load of wigglers in the tank and another fry tsnk with 2 week old angel fry they gave me before. Wish i could snip the anubias leaf off with wigglers still on and put them in fry tank but im not sure if tiny 2 week old angel fry would eat the new fry when there free swimming?
Bristle needs wood because they eat it. Not only biofil, but also tiny bits of wood
My ivanacara bimaculata keep breeding, and I've been able to catch two of the fry before they get eaten. I need to find a way to catch the fry next time without destroying the tank
I want to see your tiger barb tank 🙏🏼
they are so easy to breed
i thought bristlenose need driftwood since they rasp on the wood for digestion, rather than just for food?
Taking bets on how many fish Chunks will swallow
Heh hopefully none, but his mouth is pretty big vs those tetra.
Or why not bag the nutrients for the diggers tanks?
These big stones you use. What do you call them? Whenever i google to try find them i can only get large pebbles nowhere near size of these. I want to change from dragon stone to these
❤
How do you tell the difference between male and female?
im helping a friend set up her first tank soon! what kind of fish and aquascape style should we go for? :D might also look into shrimp and snails!!
Swordtails are a great easy starter fish! I love black ruby barbs too. Very hardy and beautiful
@@Ranger-sl3qq black ruby barbs are super pretty! thats a really good choice i think she would really like those! :) thankyou
