This is hands down one of the best channels on TH-cam, definitely the best fish/scape channels. The vids always make me smile and inspire me with my own tanks.
I really love this scape MD. The first time around in the hobby 20 years ago I never kept platys. I set my daughter up a 29 gallon and we went to the LFS, they didn't have a big selection of fish, but they did have some (I guess) regular Pilates, they're like kind of gray silver with the black tails.. anyway, I didn't realize how enjoyable these little guys can be!! My daughter and my grandchildren are loving their Aquarium and it's starting to become a jungle ❤️ We've even had babies already!! Now it's got me interested in getting some different kinds of platys and these guys are beautiful that you're showing here! I love when you show us all of your aquariums so we can get ideas!! Something I have been working on is creating depth!!I think you're going to love these fish and they're definitely going to love you! I hope you have a great day my friend! 🙏🌿🐟🌿❤️
The most important thing for making such beautiful scapes is the options of plants for fore, mid and background!!! I am so inspired with MD's videos i started keeping planted tanks and started collecting plants, i have like 8 types so far and its hard to get a beautiful scape...
Your plants ALWAYS look phenomenal. So green and healthy. And your hardscapes always look so cool. I'm always looking forward to seeing them. I do think that it's time for you to do a fish room tour!!! Please, please, please. 😁
It’s a beautiful hobby. Just another form of art, and just like any other hobby, it can get very expensive. Don’t ever skip in getting quality tools, plants, food, and substrate.
It's so satisfying to see a build from start to finish. What a treat on a Saturday! It turned out lovely too. Coincidentally, I want my next tank to be mixed platys.
I purchased six platies exactly like yours for my grandson‘s aquarium, one of the females or two, I’m not sure, had fry and I now have about 40 full-grown platies in my 130 gallon tank. They are and have always been exactly like puppy dogs, when I put my hand in the tank for whatever reason they come up to me because they are always hungry!
I’ve never really paid much attention to Platy’s before but man the are beautiful!!! That tank is GORGEOUS!! Might have to replicate that for sure. ❤️❤️
@@MDFishTanks glad you liked the video MD! Your support means a lot. I’ll look into doing a Platy scape :) P.S: I’m buying some pearlweed online right now... you made it seem almost too good to be true so I had to try it out!
I've got Mollies and the black ones are gorgeous! I must say, they are really fun and entertaining fishes. They love chasing one another and playing. Platies are similar to mollies too. So enjoy your new fishes and great choice with the platies you've picked. They look great in the tank! Watch out for those babies
Platies are my fave! I have a platy sorority lol so we don’t have more babies, then the swordtail had babies lol you are so talented love your tanks , you inspired me during covid and i planted all my tanks, nuttin like yours but not too shabby
MD I started my tank with 6 platys. As livebearers I quite liked the idea of the odd baby fish. I had read that even the parents will eat their young. Four months later I currently have about 7 teenagers & a further 10 new babies. I literally don’t know what to do with them. Am hoping my local fish store (if it ever opens again) will take them off me. I would have been better buying a couple of rabbits ☺️
Hi, I enjoy viewing your videos. I noticed that the first coat of paint was an interesting mottled pattern. It wouldn't hide equipment or cords but it is giving me some ideas for my next aquarium. Thanks!
I loooovvvveeeee platy's they were my 1st fish and they are just lush and full of character and they love chasing a lazer pen 🖊 😄 its class to watch lol! Xx
You give good inspiration for so many scapes which are obtainable for the average aquarium keeper's.would like it if you would do a marine planted tank as you don't see many and you would put it across in a way any one could do. You have a brilliant channel.
ALSO - Would love love love a video on scaping a tank that has a teeny tiny area out the water for a mini red claw crab to enjoy but have fish thrive too. Cheers MD
Hey mate, love your Tanks 👍 Get some swordtails . Not too long ago I added 1 male and 2 female Swordtails to my guppy Tank. The females had about 20+ babies within the 1st 2 days.. they seem so happy 😃 and growing daily ✌️
SO...THE PLATY COLORS ARE ORANGE AND BLACK , THAT IS...GREAT COMBINATION WITH THE BLACK BACKGROUND AND THE REDNESS OF THE LUDWIGIA-SUPER-RED AND THE RED-BROWN WOOD . IN SHORT : BLACK-FINS MACH THE BLACK-BEACKGROUND , ORENG-BODY MACH THE RED PLANT AND RED-BROWN-WOO:D :) AND...ALL THE OTHER FISH AND SHRIMP HAVE SOME COLOR THAT MACH THE COLOR CONCEPT :) AMAZING :) VERY SMART COMBINATION :) THANK YOU FROM ISRAEL :)

MD How is your goldfish? Is it ok? Beautiful tank!

Hey I had platy's before and a mother palty gives 10 to 12 babies in that 6 are grown to an adult
What quartz sand is this? Maidenhead aquatics?
At this point I'm just jealous how every single tank scape looks so good
Cheers mate. Just practice i guess :) like anything really.
@@MDFishTanks hats off dude.....great scape👍
Practice and a massive variety of supplies makes the difference.
Girl same
same here
Every time MD goes to the fish store I think how lucky those fish are to go home to his studio!
thanks glenn :)
MD’s new tanks never look “newly planted” - always immediately mature looking!! 🙂
He allows all his plant's to mature in other grow on tank's!
@@PENFOLD1962 that's it andrew. most of them have been underwater for several weeks.
I love platys - hardy, colourful and breed very easily. Such an underrated fish. Beautiful set up.
yeah looking forward to my first experience with them.
Me to!
Man, those platys were absolutely the right choice for this scape! I actually gasped when you added them, they look so nice 🔥
thanks for saying :)
Man you are just non-stop with these fire scapes!!!🔥
Right
What a nice addition to the fishroom! I have platys myself, and I love that they are always so happy when they see me walk past their tank.
yeah like happy puppy dogs :D
This is hands down one of the best channels on TH-cam, definitely the best fish/scape channels. The vids always make me smile and inspire me with my own tanks.
One of the cheapest and most kept tropical fish and yet I'd say this is one of your very best aquascapes - just beautiful.
I really love this scape MD. The first time around in the hobby 20 years ago I never kept platys. I set my daughter up a 29 gallon and we went to the LFS, they didn't have a big selection of fish, but they did have some (I guess) regular Pilates, they're like kind of gray silver with the black tails.. anyway, I didn't realize how enjoyable these little guys can be!!

Hi mary. Sounds amazing. You cant beat a jungle scape. About time I made a 4ft one....
Platy breed like crazy, just let the parent eat the babies to keep their population down. Its cruel but effective :D
The most important thing for making such beautiful scapes is the options of plants for fore, mid and background!!! I am so inspired with MD's videos i started keeping planted tanks and started collecting plants, i have like 8 types so far and its hard to get a beautiful scape...
Your plants ALWAYS look phenomenal. So green and healthy. And your hardscapes always look so cool. I'm always looking forward to seeing them. I do think that it's time for you to do a fish room tour!!! Please, please, please. 😁
just one word: amazing!
thank you
It’s a beautiful hobby. Just another form of art, and just like any other hobby, it can get very expensive. Don’t ever skip in getting quality tools, plants, food, and substrate.
It’s an addiction
Your videos (and my new hobby) have changed my life during covid. Thank you!
I really like that all your tanks are low tech!
It's so satisfying to see a build from start to finish. What a treat on a Saturday! It turned out lovely too. Coincidentally, I want my next tank to be mixed platys.
I'm repeating myself I know, you are a very talented boy.
cheers Tommy. I pretty much think about this stuff non stop lol.
Yes to Platy fish! Best beginner fish by far
very nice fish :)
Been waiting patiently for the vid to drop 🇿🇦
bit late but is a longer one so tons of work.
I can relate
P.S from south Africa
I think this scape is up in my Top 5 for sure that you have done! Great video MD!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Ayeee I just got some platies so this would be a great scape to steal some inspiration from once they finish their quarantine 😃😃
go for it :)
They DO look like little puppies wagging their tails! 😆 Another beautiful tank.
Wow the fish tanks are incredibly clean
Very glad you made a platy tank. I love platies. I have like 30+ in my 20 gallon because they breed like crazy and are very hardy
I purchased six platies exactly like yours for my grandson‘s aquarium, one of the females or two, I’m not sure, had fry and I now have about 40 full-grown platies in my 130 gallon tank. They are and have always been exactly like puppy dogs, when I put my hand in the tank for whatever reason they come up to me because they are always hungry!
Platies are my passion! They're my favorite fish and underappreciated in the hobby. Thanks for showing them some ❤️
Nice, glad you got platys they are awesome fish to keep in a planted tank. You'll enjoy how active and interactive they are 👍
loving them so far catherine :)
Tank maestro!!! All tanks look amazing! Heaps of talent here.
That drift wood piece is sooo cool. Wonderful scape as usual :)
The Best 😍😍😍 Warm touch of your hands, make the aquarium with hardscape and plants look perfect. Warm greetings from me, (DKI Jakarta - Indonesia)
I’ve never really paid much attention to Platy’s before but man the are beautiful!!! That tank is GORGEOUS!! Might have to replicate that for sure. ❤️❤️
I must comment that aside from the mesmerizing builds, I really enjoy the background music for your VLOGS.
Platies are honestly my favorite fish. Easy to breed as well
Platys were one of the first tropical fish I ever kept. I had the yellow to orange fade ones. Good choice 👍
thanks mate. cant believe i've waited until now!!
My very first tropical fish were sunset platys. Stunning. And MANY fry survived.
I’ve been planning on doing a Platy tank for a while, and this just made me want to do it more!
go for it Toby. Make another banger. I watched your new vid. Those little pots for food are great. My wife would love you!
@@MDFishTanks glad you liked the video MD! Your support means a lot. I’ll look into doing a Platy scape :)
P.S: I’m buying some pearlweed online right now... you made it seem almost too good to be true so I had to try it out!
I have a real soft spot for Platties. One of my favourite fish.
And congratulations on a quarter million subscribers!! 🥳
Woah I’ve been waiting for the Molly & Platy tank! Great scape MD!
Thank you for turning me onto those root tabs. All my tiny plants have doubled or tripled in size over the last month.
Never had platys but they always seemed super pretty
yeah happy little fish
I've got Mollies and the black ones are gorgeous! I must say, they are really fun and entertaining fishes. They love chasing one another and playing. Platies are similar to mollies too. So enjoy your new fishes and great choice with the platies you've picked. They look great in the tank! Watch out for those babies
mollie tank coming for sure!
Love from India bruh😍😍 You deserve more popularity
One word, “Awesome”
Platies are my fave! I have a platy sorority lol so we don’t have more babies, then the swordtail had babies lol you are so talented love your tanks , you inspired me during covid and i planted all my tanks, nuttin like yours but not too shabby
When he pulled out measuring tape 🤣🤣🤣. Coming thru with the conversions because I definitely needed it here in America.
Every thing he makes it looks perfect
Awesome , I love those fish , the tanks is great
thanks christopher
Love this tank🥰
Wow, this tank is stunning!
That ludwigia is my fav plant looks sooooo cool
Hey MD pls try a brackish aquarium with bumblebee gobies

It really would be
😍👍
The Tank looks really good. Best wishes from Germany.
It's a work of art. Fantastic job!
What a gorgeous tank scape! 😍😍🐟🐠
its already looking beatiful🤩🤩
thank you
Aww platys will love this
lets hope so
MD I started my tank with 6 platys. As livebearers I quite liked the idea of the odd baby fish. I had read that even the parents will eat their young.

Am hoping my local fish store (if it ever opens again) will take them off me. I would have been better buying a couple of rabbits ☺️
Always wanted to see you doing a platy scape because I have been keeping them for 6 months,always waited for this video 😂
Great choice, they look amazing...BTW, perfect fish music too, calming...
Hi, I enjoy viewing your videos. I noticed that the first coat of paint was an interesting mottled pattern. It wouldn't hide equipment or cords but it is giving me some ideas for my next aquarium. Thanks!
That looks really great MD!
Plates are fun. And they breed like crazy
I was just there yesterday.. picked up some plants - food ready to set up my tank
Beautiful. Thanks for the step by step demo
I loooovvvveeeee platy's they were my 1st fish and they are just lush and full of character and they love chasing a lazer pen 🖊 😄 its class to watch lol! Xx
congratulations, you have made a simply beautiful aquarium. I'll try to make a similar one, with the plants I find here in Brazil
Really lovely! Loved the relaxing music too.
I wish i could also fill my room like yours. Beautiful 😍
Amazing set up and has inspired me to get a platy tank 🙌
That was an excellent color choice!!
Wow, beautiful tank!
Truly, excellent choice of color . Glad you didn't go for neon & red one.
Stunning tank!
Beautiful! The fish are lovely
You're so skilled!
You give good inspiration for so many scapes which are obtainable for the average aquarium keeper's.would like it if you would do a marine planted tank as you don't see many and you would put it across in a way any one could do. You have a brilliant channel.
Your videos keep getting better and better. 💞 Liked
Such a beautiful aquarium 💚
I think i should recreate this.
You're awesome man, every scape is so fvcking perfect.
ALSO - Would love love love a video on scaping a tank that has a teeny tiny area out the water for a mini red claw crab to enjoy but have fish thrive too. Cheers MD
Another awesome build!
Looks super cool... you won't see those gold lazers alot... I rarely see mine around in my 300l
I'm just jealous of his grow out tanks for plants... even my locl fishstore does not have that many plants
Looks amazing as always
Hey mate, love your Tanks 👍
Get some swordtails . Not too long ago I added 1 male and 2 female Swordtails to my guppy Tank. The females had about 20+ babies within the 1st 2 days.. they seem so happy 😃 and growing daily ✌️
Gorgeous! 🐟
Wow!its beautiful!!!!!
thanks :)

Awesome, looks so beautiful... I learn many this here. Thanks brother 🙏
Always good stuff bro, hailing from Barbados...Hoorah...Stay Safe bro!!
Keep an eye out for the shimmies, your water is on the softer side x looks epic x
You always do an amazing job.
SO...THE PLATY COLORS ARE ORANGE AND BLACK , THAT IS...GREAT COMBINATION WITH THE BLACK BACKGROUND AND THE REDNESS OF THE LUDWIGIA-SUPER-RED AND THE RED-BROWN WOOD .
IN SHORT : BLACK-FINS MACH THE BLACK-BEACKGROUND , ORENG-BODY MACH THE RED PLANT AND RED-BROWN-WOO:D :)
AND...ALL THE OTHER FISH AND SHRIMP HAVE SOME COLOR THAT MACH THE COLOR CONCEPT :)
AMAZING :)
VERY SMART COMBINATION :)
THANK YOU FROM ISRAEL :)
