The sparkling gourami aquarium is now 2.5 weeks old. It's time to up the fish load and what better fish than the endlers I was growing out in the jar aquarium 😁

Hi MD.....Absolutely love ALL your videos...
By the way, just reminding you about the "Java Tank" (java fern,java moss,java rice fish)
Really sorry if its gotten annoying...lol
Lots of love from India
I say I have real green thumbs but how did I kill duck weed
Can you breed brisle nose plecos do it for your fam and can i get an shout out if you do
@@shiyadh7355 that's rough my guy!
@@shiyadh7355 😂
My mom didn’t loved the idea of me getting an aquarium, so I had to put it away in a room where almost no one sees it. Now I have it for about 4years, she has seen how much work, time and money I’ve spent on it. And she really fell in love with my Betta. She now bought a cabinet to have my tank on it in the living-room 😂
10:34 yo thats an asparagus fern! If you want to propagate it you need to dig it out and split the rhizome like you would for java ferns or bolbitus
I was feeling a bit low today and then this video popped up and perked me up a bit, thank you MD
That's awesome. Glad to be of service :)
You just know your going to enjoy the video what ever he's upto 👌
@@MDFishTanks you have helped more people than you know.
Remember to take time for yourself, too.
Don't miss out on your kids growing.
MD has this effect on me too. its awesome. hope you have a good day.
The joy i had when you started singing Lion King
The way you imitated us saying “algae” 😂😂😂
😂😂
This guy speaks with pure joy in voice
I’m from the US and I’ve been saying “algae” the same way as you when nerding out about my tanks to my partner and daughter for about a year or more now 😅
Your humor is so infectious. Just makes my day when there’s a new video posted by you. I literally just laughed out loud when you went into that quick Lion King tune ..perfect!! 😂 Love that Amazon tank look now! 👍🏻
MD!! Please never get rid of your sparklers!! I love them so much, they're my favorite fish! I'm currently raising 8 juveniles that hatched during lockdown, & I'm going to selectively breed them. Your tank is so inspirational for the design im doing for my females :) Keep up the great build videos & updates. The blue endler is so pretty!
Houseplant enthusiast here. If you trim the asparagus fern, you can train it to look the way you like. 😂 As with trimming any plants, you get more off shooting growth!
Can I make it look like a middle finger and if so how ?
3:50 well am a kid and am happy cause im alowd to make any type of aquarium i want so lucky me but i can feel the pain of people that cant
What I like about this channel is that there is no product reviews, its all about how to get your aquariums very beautiful the cheap way... thanks MD
I have a scaped 50L shrimp tank and a little 20L betta tank in my office/study.
Quite often I'll find myself just watching the shrimp when i should be listening to clients 🤣
Catching up on MD's videos. Yes, we are proud of you!
The Rio Negro tank turned out AMAZING! I'm so impressed, and I would love to have a tank like that in my living room :) I think you're an inspiration to a lot of people, me included!
4:19 ottos really be derpy like that, mine stay on leaves just vibing
The algae pronunciation got me when you mimicked us yankees 🤣
i'm so amazed by the crystal clarity and detail from your filming, thank you it's as close to real life i have seen in ages on TH-cam, missed having tanks since my return to the UK from NZ
Personally I love the way you say algae it just is more fun (I’m am American). Keep up the great work MD!
Man that American "Algae"moment caught me off guard 😂😂😂
The simba voice over was on point😂
Both tanks are looking fantastic! Thanks for showing us how they are doing - that gourami tank *chef’s kiss*
Hey MD, could u possibly do a video on n how u make the pump that u use to get the water out of the tank and fill it up again? Can’t seem to find one as good online
Thanks
Yes!!!
I made one out of an old power head/pond pump. Just attach a tube to the outlet and you’re good to go. I wrapped my power head in an old charcoal mesh bag for canister filters to stop fish being sucked in
Agreed! I am super interested in that pump.
I don't think you can propagate asparagus ferns, but you can rotate it to promote growth to the areas that are further away from the light right now. If you turn it 25% every week you should end up with a ballancet looking plant. :)
i've watched youtube for a couple years but i've never seen such a positive person like this.
The last shot of that tank, looked so good
I’m American and I remember the first time I heard you say algae and then I got over it and at this point I’m used to it and now I say algae the way you do.
I love the look of your natural aquascapes you have definitely gave me great ideas on some of my tanks.
When removing floating plants is a comb! It works a treat.
Compliments to The Small Scape 😉
just realized when he says "fred algae" he could honestly be saying "thread algae" but his bri'ish ways make him say "fred"
Great video always happy to see you!
Got back into fish tank and planted tanks after 6 months. Happy to see the videos are still amazing! :D
Also plant amateur here!
It looks super happy and healthy just keep doing what you're doing and nothing extra 😊
Great looking tank and setup as always. The sparkling gourami definitely has some personality. Your videos are also getting more and more polished as is your presentation!
Sparkling gourami looked a bit similar to croaking gourami. Absolutely nice for your beautiful aquarium setup
I believe that it’s the same. They sure do look “croaking” to me. My guess would be the Trichopsis pumila.
It looks absolutely stunning.
Love the new "beatiful people" into. Tanks are amazing too.
I love panda corydoras too. But pygmies are my favorite since they will lay on plant leaves when they cuddle puddle and not just the bottom... something about 3 on one anubia leaf and 3 on the next leaf. ... always makes me happy when they are bunk bedding
Your asparagus fern is doing well due to the humidity been near tanks. You'll find a lot of plants will do well in your studio provided you water when needed Purley because of the high humidity in there.
I love the audio production on your videos so much!
Your tanks always blow me away. They look so nice.
Does anyone else want to see MD and Kaylee Ellen collab? Yes please!
Never missed a single upload from this channel since I subsribed more than a year ago. Keep it up MD!
The amazon aquarium v2 looks amazing MD, very jealous indeed!
Love your uploads I never miss one
I really enjoy the way you talk and of course your amazing voice. It's kinda addictive
Absolutely amazing 🌷🌷
To us it looks beautiful, well said MD
The new scape look almost exactly like the old scape.
Well it is the same theme as the last one so that's kinda the point.
"Simba from pride rock" never heard that before lol
I would love to see you incorporate a Pothos or Philodendron into a tank like you do with the Monstera and Peace Lilies.
For the house plant you can trim it. It does kinda grow like aquarium plants I was a horticulturist for a long time. If you trim it cut the part you want rite by the node you can get a rooting hormone to put on the cut end and plant in soil, keep humidity kinda high on plant maybe with a plastic container over it or spray regularly. Plant wont have roots to take in water so it will through the leaves any questions let me know. I'd love to help keep up your amazing content.
Different types of Corydora do mix, I have 4 types that swim together and a breeding pair of panda and Trilineatus. I only have one trilineatus, that may be why they mixed BUT I find they kinda prefer their own types over another and sometimes group themselves that way
Looks amazing!
I love panda cory"s as well. Seen them on your channel a long time ago. Haven't had any in a while so ill have to get some. keep up the good work with the plant. and don't water down your accent for anyone. I absolutely love it. it's part of the enjoyment for me. very good work on the trimming...oh wait i should probably go trim mine to lol.
I love these gouramis they are super cool
Can you start an educational series about plants, substrates, fish and stuff that would be cool
Beautiful!
A day is always incomplete until you watch a MD video 🤣
MD! I heart your videos! You need a sticker!!!! I have a sticker collection of all of my favorite fishtubers, but it kills me that I do not have an MD Fish Tanks one.
Fish are looking sharp! Nice tank :)
I would love a merchant shirt that had the ember, discus, and Timmy design printed small just across the chest in a cute little line! I wanna rep all the cuties at the same time lol
I must say this setup is my favourite I'd love to see what's going on under the wood shelf more (with no technical skills a little led glow under there somehow???) this setup allows the fish to feature in front of the dark wood and not get lost.
To US, that tank a Beautiful! 😃
the way you said the American “algae” absolutely killed me LMaoooo
I from California in the usa and I say it the way you do md
I love you man! love the simplicity and honesty too.
What do you do for a living to sustain this hobby… i can barely make ends meet with 2 low tech tank.
You cracked me up with the Simba reference, but I absolutely love the tank!
So nice. Keep up the good work 👍
How come none of your fish ever have great big long strings of poo? Even my baby Endlers look like fancy kites! 😂
I seriously don't understand how you don't have a million subs yet.😷🇿🇦🐟🐠🐌🌿
Keep saying algae your way MD cuz when you say it our way it sounds hilarious lol 😂 your videos are always so fun and entertaining thank you!
My asparagus fern grows whenever she wants and however 😂😂 ive seen a lot of people make them climb! If you want get a trellis if not I’d just let it do it’s thing! ( I do not believe you can take stem cuttings only dividing the plant)
As an experience fish keeper, using your hands first is mandatory and the net is a last resort😂😂😂
Amazon Tank 2.0 DA BOMB🙌💕
Its nice to watch someone say algae the correct way 😂
You could train your Monstera on a moss pole. That would look amazing!
MD u r the best
Hi md love your tanks
Asparagus fern: to balance the growth you’ll want light(s) over all of it. Notice the new growth is heading toward the lights on the two tanks? And like others have said, you propagate it by splitting the root ball.
NOTE: asparagus FERN is NOT the same plant as edible asparagus. They are the same genus, but different species. The only edible member of the genus is asparagus officinalis.
It's ok, "al-gee" doesn't bother me as much as "gla-see-er" or "yer-I-nul" 😂
Magnifique
Amazing 😍
Nice tanks you have
It's ok MD I also talk to my fish so your not the only one
In the future just make sure you check the floating plants for babies. I removed a bunch of floaters and it turns out there were babies hiding in the roots. Hands would have been the better choice for me.
nice jungle aquarium bro...
Yay
Being American, I say al-G, but you say al-gee so much I've gotten used to it and I barely notice it anymore
Yup panda cory's are the best. Cheap and under rated
Have you ever had a problem with hydra or ostracods? What do you do to control them? Great video! I love your tanks, they continuously inspire me.
Sparkling gouramies wiill take care of the hydra. Most gourmaies will. Endlers, too. Pufffers will decimate the ostracods.
Try getting some azzola its a type of floating plants :D
I am doing a 20 gallon planted tank. I am having a breeding pair of peacock gudgeons, 6 glowlight tetras, 6 sterba corys, 4 otis, and 2 nerites. Food recommendation?
Most of the fish can be alimented with granulated food, if it reaches the bottom of the tank, the corys will eat it.
I you want to feed your corys they have like little pills that get into the bottom quickly, and they start eating them
Peacock gudgeons like protein foods, and ottos are herbivores, so I would go some type of guppy/betta food for the gudgeons and tetras, and some sinking mini algae wafers to keep everyone else happy 👍🏼 doesn’t hurt also to throw in some frozen foods once in a while to keep them healthy
Uhm i would do a mix of flakes granulates or realy small pellets and variety of frozen foods a bit of the right save live foods (bloodworms and cyclops maybe waterflees) and an feedin wafer orso maybe algea wafer
For your bottom dwellers, I would recommend Hikari algae wafers. My nerites love it. The otos will definitely eat the wafers, the corys will too, but they also will eat any leftover food from the other fish.
@@d.b9743 my ottos and any of the ottos i know eat algea wafers so just breed some algea for them
I guess I should count myself lucky that my partners favorite tanks are our naturalistic blackwater tanks
cool man'
Thanks for the great video MD! why do you always have so much pearling in your tank? its look great ! please share :)
It would be great to have you talk about water parameters for each tank. I noticed you have caridinia and neo,s. Do you adjust your water differently to each species needs? Love the gorgeous work, more nerdy details would be brilliant.
Is that giant plant underwater a amazon sword?
Hey MD I was wondering how you have your electrical system set up because I am thinking of doing a fish room. Thanks.
