NEW MERCH CLICK HERE: teespring.com/en-GB/stores/md-fish-tanks I'm loving the LED Floodlights at the moment and wanted a way to use on nano tanks without touching the aquarium at all. So I came up with this light stand. Really happy with the neat finish it has produced.

Hey there @MDFIshTanks , Just a question is 1700 Lumens 20W enough light for well planted 75L tank? Hoping I can get some light shined onto this matter, no pun intended. 🤙🏽
I love so much the "lazy" way you're living your hobby man ! yes, MC won't thrive as good as if you were using tons of expensive soil additives ... but still ! they will grow eventually :) and that's the whole DNA of your channel. so big up, again for that MD !
This is a great looking tank with a unique stocking. The light stand was absolutely brilliant!!! P.s. if every Monday could be a ‘shirtless’ build day that would be great 👍🏼 💪🏼❤️❤️
Have you ever thought "what happens if there is a fire in the studio and the insurance company wont pay out because of your DIY wiring? I'm all up for doing yourself, but you might want to get your work checked and signed off? We wired an outside socket ourselves, and got an electrician to check it over and gave us a sticker. Just a thought.
Next time can you do a bit more info on the wiring, thinking of doing a similar set up light wise on my big tank, prob like the amazon aquarium. Just need a better under standing on the wiring. Cheers md
The tank looks really nice, but 25 liter is much too small for this fish in my opinion (much too small!!!)... And the killifish doesn`t look healthy and much too skinny. And then you don`t just put one fish in 25 liter
Awesome work on the stand super simple and accessible to people with limited DIY skills 👍 great! But hey MD you should use some heat shrink on the wire extensions. I noticed you done quite a few lately and its a little safer than the tape incase water drips on the cables
I’m so excited to wait your new video, because all your video are amazing and fun to watch to learn about the aquarium and the fish!! Everything are nice and perfect!! Anyway I am from Malaysia and new to aquarium and Aquascape. Cheers!
Instantly inspired by this awesome DIY video. Where I live there is almost nothing in regards to the hobby so I'm going to try and replicate this to some degree. Could you just give me a precision? The 20 W floodlight translates to how many lumens ? Thanks for your answer, your work is amazing
Will be honest, been subscribed for a while but have not been watching recently as I have slightly withdrawn from aquascaping videos atm, saw you were uploading a lot and initially was skeptical but this video made me respect the work you put in, great production, creativity and skill, very impressive. Appreciate your efforts and youve definately got me reinvested into this hobby!
I never bought Optiwhite aquarium, because of the extra cost and reportedly easier to scratch. I'm not as bad nowadays, but to risk it... Third there could be bubbles in the silicon. There are claims with algae growing easier through, but I had really old fishtank and no algae growing into seams.
Hi I love your vids was just wondering for all your planted tanks do you use only white led lighting? And is it better to use white and blue led lighting?
Brilliant video, only thing I'd say is it looked like you disregarded the earth when connecting up the light you should not disregard this as the fitting is metal unless it's double insulated then ignore this
A few questions: Why didnt you paint the whole thing black? Why if the back of the sticky paper is sticky, why the soapy water? I'm a newbie. Thank you for a gentle answer.😁
Hey MD , i'm following u now for a quite long time and saw a lot of ur vids. 👍🏻I love them - u r so relaxed and funny. Ur builds r inspiring and watching them always calms me down. Apart from all that please never do that again - u r a handsome man🥳 with beautiful eyes 🥰but building shirtless made my heart start racing and i wasn't able to follow anything u said or did🤤. Or maybe do it more often 😋.. hope u'll do a lot more vids. Greetings 🤗
for real, youre my favourite youtuber and your videos get me through the week. Big up yourself and the effort you put into your videos, i honestly love every second of your content and cant wait to see what you come up with enxt - thank you!!
"I need to take this home" WAIT you don't have your fish rooms in your house? They're in a separate building? I'm so confused but it makes sense for privacy but I would miss looking at my fish all the time if I had to travel to an apartment away from my home to go see my fish.. So many questions... 🤷🤔🤔🤔🤣🤣 But if that's what works for you 🤣 Imma still watch 😍
@@DomStewartWhite sticklebacks, minnows, perch, ruffe, (individually not all just shoved into a setup) loads of native plants to pick from. Itd be sick
@@ciancopeland5790 if they did saltwater they would have loads of fish, but our rivers don’t really have allot of fish and a lot of garbage, those fish do live in the U.K. but they aren’t really seen that much
@@piercecowley255 depends where you are, my local waterways are flooded with sticklebacks. But some youtuber has already started a UK native saltwater aquarium which is pretty dope
You are absolutely amazing, it's brittains most talked about (yep that's me) Stephen Patpal. I love the music themes in all your videos. I watched every single video you made on you tube. Your tank style keeps getting better and better every time. I am in progress of designing a new blue velvet shrimp tank. of course for myself. you are incredible to watch. you are honestly an idol to watch! for fish tank designing. keep up with the good work. my favourite tank you designed in my opinion is the tank when you used the broken garden terracotta pot, that was amazing, that was superb and it was so eye catching. see you soon I suppose, Stephen Patpal from bristol , all the tanks are amazing but the broken garden terracotta pot tank design just blew it away; just because the fact that I love garden plants in terracotta pots.
