Aquascape Tutorial: 💚 3ft TURTLE Aqua Terrarium | Paludarium | Aquarium (How To: Planted Tank Guide) 

NEW MERCH CLICK HERE: teespring.com/en-GB/stores/md-fish-tanks Timmy (TIIIIMMMMMAAAAYYYYYYY) has gotten to big for his shallow tank so we have upgraded him to a 3ft aquarium / aqua terrarium / paludarium. He shares his tank with fish as well. Golden White Cloud Mountain Minnows. I wanted for a simple planted aquascape in this one to allow easy aquarium maintenance later down the road. Timmy really seems to love it and it makes a great feature of the Studio 😊 Equipment (all links affiliate): GOOD BUDGET LIGHT:: US amzn.to/2MDfjk1 UK amzn.to/3iYlfQQ SMALL HANG ON BACK FILTER: US amzn.to/2Mw63OO UK amzn.to/39rx3b5 NANO INTERNAL FILTER: US amzn.to/3oxGBWm UK LED FLOODLIGHTS: US amzn.to/3t6HOHD UK amzn.to/3orIdRv CANISTER FILTER: US amzn.to/3iNeVtW UK amzn.to/2Fo774a GOOSENECK CLIP ON LAMP: (similar as product is now discontinued) US amzn.to/2IlwLVA UK amzn.to/2LNat13 MINI WATER PUMP: US amzn.to/2oAmf5y UK amzn.to/2mjHDez TANKS: US amzn.to/2SOocHG UK amzn.to/2SPA24i STRIP LED LIGHT: US (similar) amzn.to/2SNgbm7 UK amzn.to/2Fn9aW1 ASTA LED LIGHT: US amzn.to/3k9EmpY UK amzn.to/3p5XUPY AQUARIUM RACKING: Shelving: US amzn.to/2SrYZ5k UK amzn.to/2GFWKJ2 AIRPUMP (FILTER SYSTEM): US amzn.to/31z8FA9 UK amzn.to/37GIoUa FILTER SPONGES: US amzn.to/3dQLUfM UK amzn.to/3dS2k7K MEDIA BAGS: US amzn.to/34Kaf2N UK amzn.to/3lAj3z1 STAINLESS LILY PIPES: US amzn.to/2FqHpvR UK amzn.to/2RlfrnC BOWL AQUARIUMS: US amzn.to/2M4FwFO Amazo UK: amzn.to/2Vx73CL HARDSCAPE AND PLANTS: www.aquariumgardens.co.uk/ AWESOME MEMBERSHIP COMMUNITY ru-vid.com/show-UC3uQXzXSPspf2LoGdtYGiHwjoin FOLLOW MY INSTAGRAM: instagram.com/md_fishtanks/ FOR BUSINESS ENQUIRIES: admin@mdfishtanks.com #plantedtank #aquascape #mdfishtanks PATREON: if you want to support future builds or possible help fund a bigger studio to make more videos, then you can here: www.patreon.com/mdfishtanks

really enjoyed the ending, just getting to watch him swim around for a bit enjoying the setup.

You’ve made me obsessed with aquarium building ahhhhh 😂

Here's a tip for turtle keepers: Try takin out your turtles in a separate container when it's feeding time. My RESs used to poop only when eating and removing them from the tank helped in keeping the tank clean for a longer period of time. Don't know if it's the same with other turtles.

me: “that looks great!” MD: “don’t worry, it always looks rubbish at this stage.”

You're making me want to get rid of my angels and get a musk turtle again... glad to see more of Timmy on the channel! You've nailed this one, it looks amazing.

You should do a aqua/rock scape for some sort of crayfish like the mexican dwarf or cambarellus alleni

I don’t know that I would want to keep turtles, but this is by far, my favorite setup you’ve done thus far, MD. I will have to build one inspired by this one when I have the room for it. Awesome work!

Timmy isnt lazy hes like me, conserving energy :P

If I was a turtle I'd want to be Timmy. What a home he's got! 👍

Absolutely stunning Scape. You never fail to get your scapes looking amazing. definitely one of the best aqua-scapers on RU-vid!

24:05 to see Timmy's shocked face when he gets picked up 😂😂

HAAHA TIMMY with that scream face MD picks him up.. just too cute and hilarious X))

This is simply superb. ABSOLUTELY LOVED it! From idea to execution, from editing to the music chosen this vBlog was incredibly satisfying and just made my day. Also, needless to say, I am so happy for Timmy! This is like a mini paradise...

Came to leave a like, I will watch it after work😂

Timmy is either the luckiest or unlikiest turtle in the world depending if he likes moving house or not 😂 i think hes had more scapes than any other turtle in the world. Great build as usual

I have a Timmy.🥰 He will get up at least a few times a week for a few hours to bask. Surprises me when he does.

Personally, I think this is the best "Timmmaaaaayyyy" scape yet !!! (Does he actually "Lalalala laaa" when he walks ? 😂🤣

how do these builds not get destroyed by timmy? i have 2 musk turtles that will absolutely obliterate any plants i put in there and move all the hardscape around until i eventually give up and just let them have it like they want it 😂

I didnt know about that aquasoil and magnet trick! I siphon them and waste some sand in the process. thanks for this!

Ahh let's go! Had a rough day and made my day! Love the tank MD. It's looking amazing

You blew my mind with the magnet and aqua soil :O

Thanks for the extra TIMMEH! footage at the end. So enjoyable to watch him just doing his thing. Love that little guy :)

That magnet trick for aqua soil just blew my mind. Big brain move 🤣

Beautiful. This has inspired me to finally set up a Musk turtle tank like that. It's been 41 years since I had a turtle. It's time. Thanks MD for another excellent video. ✌🏽🇨🇦

Not to be dramatic, but I would die for Timmy

Yay! Timmy. Star of the show. So much room. Looks so great. He's so teeny- love him. ❤️

Something so aesthetic about it , wood, stone, 3 types of plants, simple but gorgeous 👍

That’s honestly the best aquascaping I’ve ever seen for a home aquarium! Amazing job Timmy looks so happy! 😊

Timmy is so cute! So fun to see them enjoying their new tank

Love mountain minnows, always exploring and swimming together.

I love the great footage of him enjoying his new digs at the end

Perfect Aquaterra for the sweet Stinkpot. Its an inspiration for my boy.

Beautiful! And, so much fun watching Timmy explore his new digs.

Now, I am thinking 🤔 Why I don't have a turtle 🐢 , I like him so much. ☺️

TIMMAYYY!!!

Love it! Timmy seems happy! He does appear to be almost fully grown now.

This inspired me to try to make a tank like this for my turtle, he was recently given to us from a relative who can’t keep him anymore. While I was already gonna get a bigger tank for him I want to make something similar to this now

Timmy looks very happy ❤

The music in the final 2 minutes.. amazing!! Great tank once again MD. Well done.

I actually giggled when you did the lalala thing.

I absolutely love this tank, inspired to try and recreate it! Lovely to watch Timmy enjoying it 😊

These videos are so relaxing!!

13:35 this blew my mind

Beautiful!!! Love the new tank setup!!! The end was the absolute best… we need Timmy TV!!! TIMMY!!!!! ❤️ 🐢

Really cool. I'm thinking of getting a turtle but for now I'm just watching people build nice enclosures for them. Love it!

To keep the emersed plants beautiful, you could spray them every day with rainwater in the morning and before the night. Nice tank again 👌

Wow, this is beautiful and a wonderful new home for Timmy.

Timmy now has a beautiful Amazing Mansion he is the happiest and luckiest Turtle anywhere I love this you are amazing you build the best and most beautiful tanks ever. When I an down feeling bad depressed I just start watching you build tanks like today my blood presser is high but it want be for long thank you so much for sharing your tank building with us .

Timmy! Thanks for the chill time at the end.

I absolutely love that song at 28:83... wow.

I love how you played the music and just watching the serenity of the tank.. Don't get me wrong love hearing your voice as always but this portion made me miss my parents sooo much

Ive watched and rewatched all your turtle aquariums/mini ponds/paludariums as i am preparing for my turtle, your vids inspire me and I’ve got great ideas!

thats the coolest turtle tank i have ever seen

Both my turtle died yesterday. It was bcs of the feeder fish that i bought i think. They had black spots on them. I really miss them both. This is very soothing for me. Thank you

These vids are so therapeutic for me.

Estos vídeos son de los que después de un día pesado te lo arreglan ,❤️🐠

Im getting a turtle soon, and the moment I saw one of your thumbnails I was hooked, I have watch many of your turtle tank aquascapes and I’ve gotta so many details that will inspire my tank! Thanks so much!

The ending clips and the music is always 🔥 love your content

One of my favourite tanks you've ever done MD :) Less is more

You nailed this one. Beautiful setup.

Timmy is just travelling the world

Timmy!!! I love Timmy. He loves his new home 🏡 ❤ ❤❤🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢

I’d heard of that magnet soil trick but never tried it, glad to see it works! May actually try sand now…

I really liked the end part, good music, good slice of life part of the tank :)

Timmys got a great new home! Tons of swimming space, hiding places and room to grow!! I wish I was Timmy :-)

best Timmy tank yet!! looks great MD

Those ferns are lovly

I enjoyed this build video so much. Best Timmy tank so far!!! Great music and footage at the end.

Loved the build and Timmys new home. Mindful tunes at the end ,brilliant video

Love it. I would also put the platy in there and put a veil/long fins fish in the new mountain scape aquarium

Your tanks plants fish always look excellent! Love the vids bud! 🤟🏼🤙🏼

I love those fish so much I have a pair, and they are very underrated

This video changed my entire mood thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️ waiting for tons of video like this..never stop this buddy ❤️

I've got 2 large yellow bellied sliders, had them since hatchlings. I wish I could create a setup like this, but they eat everything, live plants, fake plants. They eat and chew on everything. The tank is so bland and this is the sort of set up I'd love to have for them. Great work man, looks amazing!

Congrats! You nailed it once again! Everything turned awesome. Thanks.

Amazing video! Next we will get to see Timmy sitting on the wood! Cannot wait to see more! Great Job!

MD, you're helping a lot of folks. I mimicked your substrate methods. I could turn of my filter and be just fine. Thank you for all of your knowledge and the way you deliver it. Keep up the good work. I wish I could get one of your shirts or something... Sumfink* Cheers!

i’d raise the water to the top, or at least 3/4. a lot of people think they are bad swimmers but ive also got a musk and he does very well in deep water. just gradually raise it over time to build muscle. he is 2 years old too so he’s able to handle deeper water. just make sure you’ve got rocks/plants heading to the surface like you’ve got going right now!! but i love the tank

It’s looking awesome no need for any changes 👍

Absolutley amazing scape!

Nice scape Absolutely sure Timmy liked his new home 👍

Timmmmmmmmy! What a stunning tank Great Job MD. Musk turtle tank is definitely in my future after seeing this setup.

Now this is a Timmy Tank great work 👏 👍 🙌

I honestly love watching the animals go about their day and explore etc. you could do some videos just of the lovely critters haha. Especially Timmy 😛

thats absolutely beautiful

I just installed one of them lights on my tank fish are all completely different now showing the real personalities! Funny enough I get my fish the same place you get yours 😉 would love to bump into you one day :)

Awesome set-up, really enjoyed this one👍👍 2 thumbs for TIMMY!!!

I think of all the tanks you have shown this is my all time Favorite A masterpiece !! I beg of you sir, please never tear this one down Please? 😍

I love this tank! Great job, as always. Timmy is just so freakin cute

Love all your videos! The way you talk combining with your videos are so informative and also thereuputic to watch. Keep it up !

Great scape, looks awesome! Go Timmy!

Great track at the end

Beautiful tank for Timmmmmmmmayyyyy!

Dude......I LOVE that song at the end. I was sitting here with your video in the background and all of a sudden I get chills and pay attention. Lol Great song for a video like this.

That magnet trick blew my mind haha never thought to try that! And the tank turned out amazing, as expected! 😁

Great build as usual. Thanks a lot for letting us know how to build a turtle tank so beautiful. It sure is my next project. Cheers!
