I like the sticky note idea. Your tanks are the most beautiful I’ve ever seen.
You ever been interested in making a native tank? Like collecting fish from streams or creeks or bodies of water that are native to your area? I love doing that up here in Ohio, USA
Tricky in the UK as you're not legally allowed to to remove wild fish.
Not really that great a variety of fish suitable for such a venture here in the UK, at least non that would be of nice colours.
All the fish in gb are extremely uncommon, big, edible, boring or mutated in the Thames
Yeah that's not something I think I'm allowed to do...and especially showing myself doing it on youtube. Nice idea though.
@@MDFishTanks you should look up a native tank for here in Ohio, you’d be surprised by the fish we have in our streams! Especially the Darters!
But yes that sucks you cannot do that though. Still love the content! Bless!
11:54 probably the best "unintentional" comedy I've seen on this channel 🤣
Haha ... I thought the same!
Timmy looks very excited to see you MD ❤
He’s going wild!
😂
Recently got a new tank after requesting for 2 years not giving up does work, just needs to be set up and I can't wait to do it
Love the 8ft and rainbow tanks!
Pufferfish: “a pug without inbreeding” 🤣👌🏼
Your shell dwellers tank looks great, can tell the fish are really happy.
Question about the notes for your dad: do you have written down somewhere what you feed each tank or do you do it all by feel?
You can do this by feeling when you have experience taking care of hundreds of species for so many years, then it becomes as simple as eating rice.
Glad you had a good holiday! You’ve come a long way from your little shed at home! Can’t believe how fast the time goes. So I cured my first case of dropsy in my panda goldfish tank.! yay!
It's great to see your excitement over upcoming projects. I hope you don't burn out. Take those vacations, days off, etc...whatever it takes to keep that enthusiasm. Glad that your family enjoyed a trip away🙂
The right nutrients do really help with plant growth, I agree! The past few weeks I've been dry starting a Superfish Scaper 90, put in Nutri base first, then aquasoil because I want a carpet and then let all sorts of carpeting plants grow in. The other night I filled up the tank, put CO2 injection on it and the Superfish light on top (it comes with the kit of course) and everything is pearling!
Remember to get a nice quality macro nutrient plant fertilizer like easy green or nilocg thrive, use it after water changes and trims for max plant health : ) the aquasoil will provide enough for a few weeks but you'll want to start fertilizing after if using co2
@@elune43749 I use Planted Box all in one lean fertiliser.
API is not available here.
Hopefully you aren't using those seeds
@@JiyuuNK why do you need to ask that question?
I love how your enthusiasm has never waned and, indeed, seems stronger than ever. It's one of the factors that makes your content so enjoyable. Thanks MD!
Wish my shop was open so you could have stopped by and checked my tanks, hopefully next year
I'm hooked and happy I'm back into fish keeping but also into aquascaping, I love the plants in my tanks and I'm learning so much. I'm figuring out the types of plants I really like and how the plants are doing in my 1st venture into aquascaping I'm now confident enough to break down my first try and do much better reconfiguring my tank to fix my beginner efforts lol. You give me plenty of confidence that I can and am learning but that I can also break it down and do better. Your builds are always so beautiful.
You seem rejuvenated, happy for you:) Fwiw, I agree about the pearl gouramis - I've had two different sets where they've each picked off a single female. I was surprised because they have a reputation for being peaceable. This last group of 6 had only one male and the females chased away another female every time she got in too close to the group.
I have one tank out of 7 that seems effortlessly balanced and I've been doing this for years! It took years to balance it too, with flood lights no less. We have higher ph here and I get so much algae with a fertile substrate. Even so, I think I've got nothing to lose by trying it more your way, adding root tabs and more frequent water changes and additional ferts. I have what I would consider lots of plants, but I'll replant all the new ones I get, too. Wish me luck!
We use tablet dispensers I.e monday to Friday pop ya dose in, for when we go on holiday. Brilliant load it up easy for your fish career to feed. Loving your work and I'm proud of my 4ft community tank built up from watching your videos over the last few years. Keep it up MD 👊
I'm so grateful for you plant tips. I've initially thought lights were the problem and poured lots of money into high end lights. I wish i watched your videos before i did that.
All your tanks look great, but the 8ft is my favorite. It has a great assortment of plants and the way the wood pops through . Awesome .
Hey man it’s the guy with the big truck from the show! It was great meeting you!
Just wish some of your tanks have more negative spaces so they dont all look the same.
I was so worried when I saw the title but where was the disaster?
I think you should put Chunks in the 8 foot with a partner along with the Blue Acara and give those beauties some room to swim. Maybe some red cherry shrimp and discus to make the colors pop.
Love your channel, mate.
Thanks for the update on the Odessa's, I was one of the people asking! The males are stunning, especially the two with darker scales which is a lovely contrast against the red stripe. Mine are nowhere near as colourful unfortunately - I may only have females (8). They are still young so hopefully their colour will improve with age.
This big tank is so bloody gorgeous, MD! Wow, wow, wow! Love the blues reproducing! So cool! Glad you and yours got away!
CIchlids being cichlids :D Half a tank isn't unusual. Also the 8feet keeps looking great (most the tanks do)!
Any plants to rescape some tanks at the fish shop? I miss those videos. I'd love to see you do a long river take again.
Timmy's shield is perfectly algae free since the Odessa barbs are with him!
Just stunning 😀😀@MDFishTanks do you have any tanks with CPD's in them ? they are such a beautiful fish and it would be great to see them in their own scape ? maybe put it on the list :) I have just added a heap of juveniles to my indonesian forest style scape so they are not coloured up yet but when they do it will hopefully look beast 😀
The rainbow fish aquarium would look even more awesome with more rainbow fish
GLAD YOU'RE BACK AT THE STUDIO
I love the idea of the Puffer Island for that puffer tank!
omg its sooo beautiful
Do an old school video where you find moss outside and superglue it to a branch. I liked that sort of stuff
Off Topic Question. - What glue should I look for to secure the wood down.? Can I buy it off the shelf from the local DIY Store.?
If you lightly mist the front of the glass with water the magnet cleaner moves very freely and easily 👍
Then you're cleaning water marks off 😅
Love your channel MD! The two remaining pearl gouramis are both males, only the males get the orange beard.
I think in the 8 foot you sho idk only do stripy angles just my personal preference but I love all, you tank set ups especially the new acra set up lovely:))))))))
E
The two remaining pearl gourami are boys. The one that died was female. That is quiet a small tank for three, the males can get very aggressive with the girls when they want to breed.
Glad your vacation was inspirational. Do the wigglers get sucked into the filter?
The part you said about the substrate being way more important then the light is spot on my plants kept dying I got a light they stopped dying but would not grow why because my substrate was corse quarts gravle the substrate had no nutriants and the fish poop would not catch inside and would be at the very bottom of it so the plants could'nt absorb the stuff if you can't find a nutrient substrait make shure you make it fine sand with small gravle 3 to 4 mm of corse level and if you can get some clay put some of that in as well it's better then nothing
Hey MD, I’m curious if you have a night cycle for your lights at night? Half the month blue lights for the moon at night and half the month no moon light? Wondering for the life of the plants and the growing and nurturing of them and the creatures.
Both of those pearl gouramis look like males to me. The third one that died I thought was a female. The ladies don’t really get any orange. The two males together in that small tank is going to result in a lot of stress on the smaller male- I suggest splitting them up and maybe trying to find a few females.
You are lucky mate,I wish my wife would be more interested in my 300 gallon acro tank. 😂
The drama of pearl gourami lovers plotting the murder of their tank mate. 😅
Hey MD, don't think you'll see this but I've also kept Pearl Gourami and had the same issue. It seems like both of your remaining ones ae male and likely killed the other one, you might need to separate the remaining two
I seen you in background of Paul cuffaro video when he bumped into Chris
That was a fast holiday
I think that 8 ft tank is the most beautiful freshwater tank I’ve ever seen!!❤❤
Surely you will also be inspired to make such a freshwater tank after watching this video :)))
Another great video. Looking forward to the new puffer tank.
went away for a week with my newly cycled tank. Only shrimp no fish, but the water dropped from the plants absorbing so much and the filter broke due to the low water and came back to an algae infested tank with nearly all my shrimp dead 🙃 A month later we are all good but I wanted to cry and give up cos it looked so bad
Hey MD your dad who is a great carpenter cannot go wrong with those measurements
At first I thought you said; “he’s guarding his wiglets…”. ☠️
Looks like you truly enjoy your Job/Hobbie. 👏👏
Great update video. Always enjoy your videos. I’ve got some electric blue Acara too, and it does seem like they’re just breeding machines. I ended up pulling the eggs with the mom into another tank and they’re doing well and growing quite a few little babies but now the dad has gone and started an affair with another female in the main tank and we have another set of eggs!
Will you just let nature take its course this time with the Acara or will you try and move the babies into a new tank?
When I go away and have somebody else doing the feeding I use pill dispensers and put the right amount of food in each one for each tank whilst I am away you can get them from them chemist .. then it’s on me if anything happens and not the person feeding them
Will you ever return to Discus?
Did you visit "Florestas Submersas" while you were in Portugal?
Takashi Amano's masterpiece
what kind of cichlid is chunks?
my betta i pulling out all my plants and its driving me mental lol
Nice
Any issues with my inbreeding fish was such a large number hatched? I was wondered I never really thought about it… Do you have the answers?
do you have a problem with mould or do you have good dehumidifiers?
what type of fish is chunks
Very beautiful pair of mosaic gurammies.
Hey MD, where did you get your hose attachment for filling your tanks?
I’d like to see you do more with the saltwater tanks. You got 2 and built one . Then just kinda lost interest it seems. And as a guy that has both fresh and salt I think saltwater keeping is a much more rewarding aspect of the hobby. Still love the videos though ❤
Auch wenn man in der Aquaristik von Zeit zu Zeit auf scheinbar unlösbare Probleme stößt, ist Aufgeben nie eine Option, dafür ist "die Aquaristik ja das schönste Hobby der Welt"! 😉
There is something to this. With some experience, sometimes it's good to just neglect the tank for a few weeks or month and let it work out its own problems.
I absolutely love your eight foot tank!
What are the red plants in the 8ft I really want some for my tank but I can’t find them
Is removing chunks a good idea , becaude if he gets territorial he will definetly kill the male acara
Please dose fertilizer for every 3 days, dont dose for a week, you can get algae issues, thanks.
hey @MD Fish Tanks just out of curiosity what gallon is the 8ft tank?
also keep doing you, your smashing it.
at least it didnt turn into a giant ball of string algae like what happened to mine lol im still dreading going home thursday and seeing what my tank looks like after another almost 2 months gone
I have 2.6 gallon aquarium that I want to stock with shrimp and snails. Though some people have told that a snails bio load would be too high. Also are there any other stocking options and if I can put snails in there what type?
Small snails would be okay, ramshorns are pretty cute with their spiral shells and come in various colors. 2.6 gal is definitely too small for some larger snails like mystery, i wouldn't go below 5gal for one of those
Does ur dad have any fish tanks? Where did your love for aquascaping stem?
What part of Portugal did u do your holidays ? and did u like it ?
Hi. Do you get whip tail plecos? I'm building a 3ft planted tank for the first time and I've been told whip tails are better in planted tanks than Bristol nose ones.
he loves his job its so nice to see. I am soooo jealous
Good stuff right there.
What kind of fish is Chunks? Beautiful!
Royal Acara Cichlid
@@elune43749 Thank you!
What species of cichlid is CHUNK?
As title exaggerations go, this one is up there.
you should keep snakehead
My dream tank is to get the biggest damn tank feasible and just make an Amazon river tank with hundreds of ciclids and just breath while i watch them forever but i will never be able to afford that so a 2000gal tank sounds more fesable and just as fun
What are your red fish in Timmy tank?
Where are the hoplos from the original acara's tank? No love for catfishes?
Id be happy to take this off ur hands but im from RSA😂
Make a tank for pearl guramis !
love your vids so much. you inspire me on building a beautiful and healthy tank even with my low budget hahaha (hope you notice)
If you treat your beard with CO2 to rapidly grow it out 6” you could then introduce a honey bee colony and be the first TH-camr who keeps bees and little fishes. 🤔
Chunks is showing the early stages of HITH. It's the reason why I don't keep Central American Cichlids anymore. So hard to keep HITH at bay in larger fish I've found.
I went back and looked again, but i can’t really see any signs.
@@andreakarlsson7927 1:38
What signs are you seeing from this video? Chunks appears to have nice color and is moving about the tank okay. I don’t know much about the illness/disease myself. At minute 1:39 it does look like maybe there are some white looking spots that could be signs of it? Hopefully it’s just his color and he’s not getting sick. What a cool fish!
@@7Makowski7 Pitting. It's why large central american fish need massive filtration.
What kind of fish is Chunk?
what species is Chunks?
I believe in my heart that how you raise your animals is optimal you give them the best quality of life, the most natural life that you can possibly provide, and that being said nature will always take its course. There’s nothing we can do to prevent that that’s God’s will, and the circle of life that he created.!
Please do not sync that you have to change how you house your animals and don’t take it personal that she may no longer be with us. Know that if it was possible for them to speak to you our language they would thank you for the life you provided for them there’s so many creatures that are being with humans that are so cruel and I’m sure they wish for death , so I want to thank you as an animal lover for the love that you provide all your creatures on the farm❤
You ever had issues with stems growing thinner and thinner? And if yes, what fixed it? :)
md got gunz 😍
I'm 10 years untouched
the videos that have been posted for the last couple of months have been so short. except the one he posted that was just a bunch of videos he already posted into one video.
