You smashed this build!👏 quick tip: If you put springtails in the emersed section, they’ll breed & become a natural food source for the fish, they’ll also help fertilise the substrate & keep mold away:)
That turned out amazing! I've actually been gathering supplies to make my first paludarium, but it will be smaller. My friend gave me an old 5 gallon tank (I need to get the hard water stains off it). Since I live in Florida, I am going to use plants like moss, ferns, and air plants that I find in the yard all the time. I hadn't considered a cork background, but that looks really nice and natural. I love that soil you used, so cool that you can mold it to fit wherever you need it!
@@CGLFishing Oh, that's interesting! I have caught lots of fry along the edges of the river, but they're always tilapia. I'll have to get into the weeds next time. I want to go out searching for aquatic plants in the spring, that would be a good time to look.
Sorry but the Bumblee Rocks DO affect Water Parameters and not by a small number. I have purchased several Items from WIO for about 350€ and my Water changed to " rockhard" in 3 Days with running a CO2 Injection Scape. Customer Support was also really bad, I had to fill a Paypal Claim and Im still waiting for my retouring label. Sending the Items back ( not my fault when advertised wrong on homepage) is very costly and im really upset right now.
Absolutely love it! I am very into the idea of a pallidarium as you can keep jumping fish such as clown killifish without worrying about the uglyness of having a lid on a traditional aquarium/ or losing the dimension of seeing the water from above.
"At first, I thought that combination of stones wouldn't work. But the angular ones become more part of the background, and the round ones part of the foreground. Super nicely done!"
Honestly I’ve enjoyed watching mj a lot more compared to md tanks as of lately, not sure if other people have been feeling this way but md’s videos just don’t feel authentic anymore and it seems as though he is being bought out by big brands like api or super fish making his whole video as almost a sponsored video where as mj subtly includes the promo and doesn’t make the whole video about it
@1:13 My blackwater tank looked like that for a month & then a month later, it completely cleared up. It was a stubborn, nasty bastard until it became my snail & shrimp tank. ^^; My other tank looks nothing like that & yet I can't keep the nitrates/ites in check despite 2x weekly, 50% changes & the other parameters being perfect... 🤬 The tank personality struggle is real!
Could you please tell me what lights these are? I know you mentioned them but I am struggling to find them and may be incorrectly pronouncing them. Thank you!
hello there i have a question, so im having a co2 diy system, yeast and sugar, so basically im running an air stone with the co2 24/7 day and night, is that fine? or is it bad? can someone help me with this i really need some knowledge and help from yall, also hello Mark big fan of your aquascapes great paludarium
Looks fantastic MJ. I love all the ferns. Hope it brings you much enjoyment. Hmmmmmm, I wonder if I could get away with buying another aquarium by telling my husband " oh no dear, its not another aquarium, its my first paludarium!"😂
Dat ziet er mooi uit. Die grote stenen zijn die echt. Binnenkort ook maar eens wat drijfplanten in 1 van mijn aquariums doen want het licht is te sterk van de Juwell
I want to do something similar to this but want to use all the tank for water still but try and extend above alot more.... a little like the big shallow
I love the ferns on the cork background....great video ... will be excited to see its development. Thank you for the care you put into all your videos. This one was my companion for my morning coffee on a sunny early fall morning in Vermont :)
Thats a mind blowing paludarium build. I could keep looking at it all day long. The underwater section can have some more livestock as well! Wio decor is so good... I was also observing some nice Echinodorus in your other tank 😅 cool!
Hi Mark, Greetings from Scotland. Love your paludarium which looks absolutely fabulous. As always, it's a pleasure watching your videos. Keep up the good work. 😊
i have a question i want to make a palladium with a water fall or stream but i have a co2 system connected to my canister filter. i want to use my canister outlet as the waterfall would that waste my co2? or do i need to but a water pump for the waterfall? thank you in advance for any advice.
I came into aquascaping by way of terrarriums and paludariums so its really cool to see one of my fav youtubers trying it out! it looks amazing and Im so glad youre enjoying it.
It’s a very attractive setup, esp. the combinations of colors and shadings is very nice. After searching on the WIO homepage I didn’t find the cork parts you’ve used in your setup, are they NL only? Thx for an answer and greetings from Austria.
Oh wow looks incredible MJ 👏🏼🥰 Now you’re hooked can you explore your country side areas with streams where you can collect up some ingredients, add to one of your nano tanks and see what happens? Day trip with the your partner 💞 Explore
The site says to preserve your sticky soil when you use it, cover it in moss. Otherwise the soil will dry out. Crazy stuff I want to try it. Wish this company delivered or better was in the states.
Hey Mark , A few days ago I recommended your video from June 25 from your visit to Portugal!! I have been anticipating my First Paludarium style for a few years , and after seeing that 1st shop you visited 😲it has been running through my mind !!! Everything about the way they were setup to me is so perfect . I think it's the time to allow it to get established and making little improvements along the way & now I'm thinking about what you created with the huge display bowl 🏆 As always I have commented before I have started the video which is a hell of a way to start my morning!!!!
Wow, mooi geworden zeg, vroeger ook zo iets gemaakt van kokosplaten als achtergrond, daar kon je ook mooi van alles tegen laten groeien en turfblokken als landgedeelte voor pijlgifkikkers, erg goede video weer, ga zo door!

Looks amazing my friend! Now I have to see if WIO ships to the USA!

Old comment I know but bring in Florida you should also look for some pygmy sunfish for that tank!
@@CGLFishing I've never seen any in the rivers around here. I think you might have to go further south, maybe.
@@MandyJane123700 they are all throughout Florida and you would find them in heavy weeds in smaller bodies of water.
@@CGLFishing Oh, that's interesting! I have caught lots of fry along the edges of the river, but they're always tilapia. I'll have to get into the weeds next time. I want to go out searching for aquatic plants in the spring, that would be a good time to look.
@@MandyJane123700 nice! I'm going to try looking for some this week while visiting!
Awesome paludarium tutorial 👍🏻
You just keep killing it love your scapes
@MJAquascaping what kind of filter system are you using in this build if you dont mind me asking?
Thanks
I was using an external canister! Oase filtosmart 300.
How are you growing the floating plants mine never work
stupid question: how do the plants on the sticky soil get water? Just from the humidity accumulation? Thanks, and great job! :)
Humidity and I try to spray them once a day :)
thanks!@@MJAquascaping
Mooi!
isnt this a riparium?
Technically, there is no land area. This is considered a riparium at best. The ratio of land to water determines the type of vivarium you have.
Sorry but the Bumblee Rocks DO affect Water Parameters and not by a small number.
I have purchased several Items from WIO for about 350€ and my Water changed to " rockhard" in 3 Days with running a CO2 Injection Scape.

Such a beautiful paludarium aquascape
Thanks MJ
Bro please try BETTA HENDRA please try it ,I am from INDIA🇮🇳♥️✌🏻
Honestly I’ve enjoyed watching mj a lot more compared to md tanks as of lately, not sure if other people have been feeling this way but md’s videos just don’t feel authentic anymore and it seems as though he is being bought out by big brands like api or super fish making his whole video as almost a sponsored video where as mj subtly includes the promo and doesn’t make the whole video about it
agreed
I also feel that MJ's voice is more calming.
@@Shardy369 cuz hes just being regular. md is trying to hard to be a yt personality, he plays 'stupid' a lot thinking its funny
@@handrewmillan4293 No offense but MD's acting is sucks. I would enjoy his content better if he is just doing what he was doing before
@@Shardy369 yea im agreeing with you
How did you pump the filter with the water level so low? I'm building a paludarium too and I have problems with it
I basically made the outflow longer by using some spare parts that came with the canister filter (Oase filtosmart 300)
Your scapes always got me 😭 ❤
Big ❤️ from India 🇮🇳 brother

My other tank looks nothing like that & yet I can't keep the nitrates/ites in check despite 2x weekly, 50% changes & the other parameters being perfect... 🤬
The tank personality struggle is real!
Just WOW. 😮 Those Wio River kits are something else! Very nice! 👍
I've setup several aquariums since the pandemic but no paludarium/riparium yet. Time for a new project!
Could you please tell me what lights these are? I know you mentioned them but I am struggling to find them and may be incorrectly pronouncing them. Thank you!
Amazing I'm just starting to do my first 60 litres for shrimp just not sure what filter I should use I don't like sponge ones what you will recommend?
hello there i have a question, so im having a co2 diy system, yeast and sugar, so basically im running an air stone with the co2 24/7 day and night, is that fine? or is it bad? can someone help me with this i really need some knowledge and help from yall, also hello Mark big fan of your aquascapes great paludarium
Small note: you can make your own "sticky soil" using pure bentonite clay cat litter mixed with aquasoil and coco coir.
Bet, you use the kitchen equipment for the Terrarium and for cooking - Aqua Scap way of life
I generally prefer aquariums not paludariums, but your scapes are always gorgeous
Anyone can buy off the shelf. I am looking for original art and function.
Looks fantastic MJ. I love all the ferns. Hope it brings you much enjoyment. Hmmmmmm, I wonder if I could get away with buying another aquarium by telling my husband " oh no dear, its not another aquarium, its my first paludarium!"😂
Dat ziet er mooi uit. Die grote stenen zijn die echt. Binnenkort ook maar eens wat drijfplanten in 1 van mijn aquariums doen want het licht is te sterk van de Juwell
Please tell the folks at Wio we are desperate for them in the United States! Argh! So frustrating!
I want to do something similar to this but want to use all the tank for water still but try and extend above alot more.... a little like the big shallow
why did you cull the fish? couldn't you have given them away or sold them?
I wish they would ship to US or we had similar here. You guys are spoiled with options 😊.
vous vous adressez seulement aux hommes ou c'est la traduction qui est mauvaise ?
ben een kleine UNS 5e aan het bouwen, kom jij weer met je top tips ! ;)
The “v” shape of the cork looked so good, like a log cracking apart and collapsing into the water - so cool. This whole tank is gorgeous
At first i thought you said "culled all the fish".
😁
I love the ferns on the cork background....great video ... will be excited to see its development. Thank you for the care you put into all your videos. This one was my companion for my morning coffee on a sunny early fall morning in Vermont :)
Sounds great 😌 enjoy the rest of your weekend!
Nice! What floating plants did you use?
Thats a mind blowing paludarium build. I could keep looking at it all day long. The underwater section can have some more livestock as well! Wio decor is so good...
I was also observing some nice Echinodorus in your other tank 😅 cool!
Elk fern is an epiphyte ! it doesnt require substrate.
I’ve used Wio for a few tanks now. Excellent stuff.
Hi Mark, Greetings from Scotland. Love your paludarium which looks absolutely fabulous. As always, it's a pleasure watching your videos. Keep up the good work. 😊
that would be poifect for vampire crabs
Why do you think you didn’t have any algae issues?
i have a question i want to make a palladium with a water fall or stream but i have a co2 system connected to my canister filter. i want to use my canister outlet as the waterfall would that waste my co2? or do i need to but a water pump for the waterfall? thank you in advance for any advice.
Yeah that would waste the CO2
WOW! What a great setup! I enjoyed a lot this video! keep us posted on its evolution! Cheers!
Wow!wio products are amazing 🤯
I used WIO products couple of times and I love them. Cheers MJ
The most interesting thing is; What kind of filter did you use?
The most discussed theme.
Oase filtosmart 300 😊👍🏻
One if the best tanks you have made, i must say! :)
I like your build makes me want to try one too
American don't have access to Wio
U don’t use any pump for them?
Did he say culled all the fish ?
Only if they shipped to the USA 😭
I came into aquascaping by way of terrarriums and paludariums so its really cool to see one of my fav youtubers trying it out! it looks amazing and Im so glad youre enjoying it.
Does wio ship to the USA?
Is the cork background a new product? I couldn’t find any backgrounds or cork products on their website.
Yeah the cork should be on the website in the next few days
Here we go! www.wio.eco/decor/hardscape/cork
love your cadence's soothe
A couple more months and this thing is going to look even better! ❤🔥
Awesome shirt!! LMAO
It’s a very attractive setup, esp. the combinations of colors and shadings is very nice. After searching on the WIO homepage I didn’t find the cork parts you’ve used in your setup, are they NL only? Thx for an answer and greetings from Austria.
The sticky soil is really cool, I have to try it sometimes soon! Very nice layout, I love it!
@aBunchahNuns thanks for the tipp!!!
Choose a different shirt.
Oh wow looks incredible MJ 👏🏼🥰
Now you’re hooked can you explore your country side areas with streams where you can collect up some ingredients, add to one of your nano tanks and see what happens?
Day trip with the your partner 💞
Explore
Very poignant ending ❤
How do you feed the fish when you are on vacation?
You dont...easy😉
What do you do with the fish from previous set ups?
I think he said he culled all the fish , I'm dismayed as well. Hopefully that's not what he said
The site says to preserve your sticky soil when you use it, cover it in moss. Otherwise the soil will dry out. Crazy stuff I want to try it. Wish this company delivered or better was in the states.
So rewarding!!
Love this guy
Hi MJ, pretty cool paludarium.........congrats. Let´s know how maintenance goes on to keep it looking so nice.
I love how your narration overlayed the video of everyday life living with and caring for fish. Wonderful!
stickysoil is same thing with aquariumsoil- crush aquarium soil mix with a little bit water making like a paste..
Great build MJ, love all the specs you've included CHEERS!
One of the best videos I've watched in a while and best use of products. Truly amazing
Magnifique
Absolutely beautiful. Thanks for sharing 🙏✌️👍💗💯🔥
Wow 🤩 ❤ this
famtastic!
So pretty
Love it.

Great work, I just did one vivarium for my wild Betta, liking the overhanging terrestrial plants.
👍👍👍👍👍👍
Fantastic! I love how you started and I sure wish in the US we had a company like the one you have all the fantastic products from . Incredible !
My fish thank you, watching your uploads inspires me to get creative, well done.
Wow! That’s beautiful. Thank you!
11 th
Really cool paludarium! I will try something like that in the future 😅
Pretty cool paludarium build Mark, nice.
I’ve been seeing all the gear combining out of wio & hope it becomes available in Australia,
Wonderful! That's great! Very emotional!
Love all your scapes mate your a true artist. Think you should get musk turtle in there
If Wio was available here in the states i would be broke 😂
Build looks great!
with a set up like this you should add something that can go in the water and in land not sure what but that would be a cool idea
