I ordered two shirts about a month ago and they still say they are " in production" So bummed because I was planning on wearing to aquashella Daytona. Customer service is 0 help. Oh well, maybe they'll be Christmas presents😅😅
Im curious what is chunks, with his size id think youd he worried about him turning thw tetras and smaller tankmates into snacks, but he seems to leave them all alone. Like you said big gentle giant.
I had no idea that so many plants could be used in fish tanks until i found your channel a year or so ago. You definitely helped my son with his first tank.
Is it possible for anyone to watch your channel and not want to start keeping tanks. I don’t think it is. I kept marine fish decades ago and thought that ‘regular fish’ were too boring but you’ve certainly changed my mind about that. I’m so tempted to buy a 4ft tank and start over ❤
well done you graduated to 8 ft, now its time for 12 ft classes to begin - before the 16 ft graduation talks! In honesty tho, its looking cool, ( I still think you overloaded with wood and stones and stems tho - but like the restraint youve shown! ) I wonder though if youd ever wanted to do a super deep tank, always my dream, like a five foot deep x 8 foot long - so the extra long plants can grow really tall, like Crinums and lillies and those echono's - - a super long stand of them would be so nice to see and heavilu banked up on one side for shorties to contrast, with much larger open areas inbetween with discus and angels and severums milling about in and a million tetras etc. - you decide !
I was watching this video and thought I herd Chunks say something. So I rewound and played it again and sure enough he did say something. Chunks said he was hoping for a red shouldered severum friend to hand out with. By the way, I am watching from Canada and love your channel, it's my peaceful quiet time, especially if I need to de stress. I picked up 3 free tanks to get back into the hobby. Thank you.
Awesome tank man!!!! REALLY REALLY AWESOME!!!!!🐟 Congratulations!!! I love amazon based planted aquariums!!!!! Just a concern, since I love tetras, isn't this beast 1:32:28 gonna eat them?!
Hey MD, love your work. Though I think it’d be cool to see you work with a tank that is an unusual shape. Maybe narrower but with a bit of height. I’d be curious to see what you’d do with it.
Love your builds MD would love to see how you would build a 46ltr flaval edge with dragon stone & wood I have one & want to create depth they are awkward to build but beautiful when done, I know you would make it awesome You create living art ❤
I notice you keep a lot of fish in small tanks sometimes. I have 15 neon tetras, 4 snails, 2 corys, 1 small angel, 2 bristlenose plecos, and 6 ottos in a 30 gallon, with lots of plants, nutrients, an air stone, and 2 filters with a lid light. The water quality is perfect and I use RO water to replace water changes. I have a lot of algae and fish keep dying. I've never had a problem with fish dying like this before in all my aquariums. What could be killing my fish?
the gravel, is a special for aquariums or a normal one ? I am interesting in a cheaper way of landscaping products. Ive seen some people using stuff from the nature without any kind of treatments before put into the aquarium and i dont know if it will affect the animals inside later on.
Hey MD, I've got a question and I'd really love if u give me an answer. What's the longest you've see one of those Asta 120 lights last? Reason why I asked is because I bought 2 and they both went out in 6 months. On Amazon they have so many bad reviews too. However while they lasted, they grow plants really well.
It is such a shame we can't use your website to order plants. You could act as the reseller and they could probably dispatch direct from source. Good way of earning commission

Epic! Thank you!
love those albino plecos. well, any pleco if i'm honest 🙂
Just need a rope fish now 😅😅

Gorgeous. Your channel is part of why I’m back in this hobby, and happier because of it.
Kate went into mom mode over Chunks. And he definitely looks at her differently than he looks at you. It's quite adorable. He's 100% her fish.
He might need to migrate to the home aquarium when he builds one lol!
@Kakk_ Yes!
I had no idea that so many plants could be used in fish tanks until i found your channel a year or so ago. You definitely helped my son with his first tank.
Your channel is the best. You have helped all of my tanks and I even got to make my own clownfish tank. IM ONLY 11!! Thank you soooo much.
Is it possible for anyone to watch your channel and not want to start keeping tanks. I don’t think it is.
I kept marine fish decades ago and thought that ‘regular fish’ were too boring but you’ve certainly changed my mind about that. I’m so tempted to buy a 4ft tank and start over ❤
Loved it time love this time to COOL double thumbs up love how much Katt cares about Chunks ❤
Great idea to make one huge video of the whole story. Love the updates at the end too :)
Came out great . Nice with a lot of fish in there . Can watch that all day
You’ve got some impressive wood MD
💀
Beautiful. I'm excited for next week. I noticed the ivy on the fish wall. It looks great Katie.
Cool you do really good living art from tanks to these on ya
Discus would look awsome in there
update on the salt water please
Yes!
😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Kate is so adorably beautiful and sweet. You’re very blessed to have her.

Nature scapes are your comfort zone, come out of a comfort zone and do a dutch scape😅. Love the videos, really wanna see a dutch scape by you.
I was watching this video and thought I herd Chunks say something. So I rewound and played it again and sure enough he did say something. Chunks said he was hoping for a red shouldered severum friend to hand out with.
By the way, I am watching from Canada and love your channel, it's my peaceful quiet time, especially if I need to de stress.
I picked up 3 free tanks to get back into the hobby.
Thank you.
Chunks deser s a mate‼💯💯
Your work is amazing - I could not keep up with all of that - have one tank/aquarium - no fish yet!
Big Hug from Portugal!
Seni Türkiye den takip ediyorum ne dedigini anlamıyorum ama olsun seviliyorsun şuan takip edeli 3 sene olmuş 😊
Bonitas palabras, have to say it
MD thanks for your advice on using carbon in filter to remove the brackish water. It worked great!! Water is crystal clear
Fabulozzo. Love the fish, the plants, the lights and the shimmer. Awesome. Dreams of an 8ft tank 😊
I love the long format!
Such a relaxing video
I think 1 thing you could to improve the 8 foot with the angles fish Mabey just do stripy angles ? Just a suggestion but it’s amazing
Absolutely amazing can't wait for next months update it can only get better 😊
i just love this kind of videos, Keep doing magic man, i see you !!!!!
stunning! inspo for my future 6' tank.
Amazónia thats the right way to say it ❤😂
I marked my IN and OUT Fluval hoses with a sharpie. You'll never make a mistake that way
Un grand merci pour la vidéo!
A frog! 😮 🐸
This was awesome! You have me so many good ideas 😊
Omg I love these long videos!!!
Ain’t no way youtube really recommended me this after 4 whole min when it’s uploaded smh
ok
You are complaining?
They should have recommended it earlier. I'm subbed and I wasn't even recommended this.
@@seanyoung7713it’s a joke
@@leo.aquaticsjoke 😮
I would love a video of this length of just the result. I would love to stream that on my t.v. like i had such a tank!
I am in love with chunk 😍
Beatiful fish tank
Awesome tank man!!!! REALLY REALLY AWESOME!!!!!🐟 Congratulations!!! I love amazon based planted aquariums!!!!!
Just a concern, since I love tetras, isn't this beast 1:32:28 gonna eat them?!
I really love the complete version videos 💕 Thank you for all the work 🎥💻️📹️🎧️📷️🐟️🐢🐠
Hi from Ohio! love your channel so much literally sit here at work and watch them all day hahaha. What species is chunks?
Chunks is a Royal Acara I believe.
Hey MD, love your work. Though I think it’d be cool to see you work with a tank that is an unusual shape. Maybe narrower but with a bit of height. I’d be curious to see what you’d do with it.
Love your builds MD would love to see how you would build a 46ltr flaval edge with dragon stone & wood I have one & want to create depth they are awkward to build but beautiful when done, I know you would make it awesome
You create living art ❤
Plants,Plants and more Plants ‼️💯💯
Great work. 😮
So entertaining MD 🎉
LOVE IT!

Did you use Hakkai rock for the bigger rock ?
I'd love you to do a tank you can see from all sides please! xxx
Serious question. When you have large aquariums loke this, what happens if sickness happens like ick? Whats the process of care?
NICE NICE NICE CONTENT!
How many liters is it?? And keep up the good work😊🎉
1000 liters
Get a "safety step" or so they're called in Australia 😂 way better than a step ladder
What sort of clean up crew is in here? Just a couple bristlenose and siamese algae eaters?
Hello ! @8:35 what kind of plant do we see in the tank ? It's look like monstera, is it really it ?
I'm inspired by the no filter videos and want to start one, but will the tank have any odor?
What an epic disaster ! The tank looked fantastic before and it is now turned into something ...
You put the sick tetra in 😱 (did you forget?)
❤ I love this tank
Amazing!!!! ❤
Why not black water deep roots aquarium set up ?
How much food do you use for one feeding of fish? I have never fed so many fish.
Great tank, what kind of fish is Chunk?
the gravel, is a special for aquariums or a normal one ? I am interesting in a cheaper way of landscaping products. Ive seen some people using stuff from the nature without any kind of treatments before put into the aquarium and i dont know if it will affect the animals inside later on.
You should try discus in this
Is that valisenaria in the angel tank? It's huge
Tank looked better before tbh
what do you do for driftwood tanning? it's been a year and my driftwood tannes the whole tank in 4 to 5 days after water change
Hey MD, I've got a question and I'd really love if u give me an answer.
What's the longest you've see one of those Asta 120 lights last?
Reason why I asked is because I bought 2 and they both went out in 6 months. On Amazon they have so many bad reviews too. However while they lasted, they grow plants really well.
Good size maşaallah
Waiting for big island aquascape from you❤. ( If you can afford use qurtz crystals in aquascape )

It is such a shame we can't use your website to order plants. You could act as the reseller and they could probably dispatch direct from source.
Good way of earning commission
Any plans on some females for Chunks? 😅
