NEW MERCH CLICK HERE: teespring.com/en-GB/stores/md-fish-tanks In this video I challange myself to a rock only aquascape. But more than that, I wanted to create a mountain style aquarium that keeps a sense of scale and perspective. Not easy to do at all but I think the finished look is pleasing.

Great video again, 😊👍x Are the rocks you use in your tanks any special kind? It's just I am making up a new tank for a baby musk turtle and have some little plant parcels made up and I wanted to place some rocks within the tank to pop them in, and wondered if there were any specific kinds I should buy, 😊x Thanks
Watching for over a year now quietly but this tank is too good to not comment. This style should be the replacement for the Cichlid tank. It's incredible! Best tank yet
Wow, I seriously love this scape Dunno what it is about the tanks with a pathway, but whenever I get the chance to make a planted aquarium I’ll deffo replicate this look And the fish go hand in hand with all the contrasts
Wow!!! This tank is incredible!! At first, I was like uh oh, I don't know if I'm gonna like this, but the more you added the more gorgeous it got and I saw it come to life!!! Amazing work! I think this is your best scape so far! Kuddos!!😊
You can actually put moss and glue in a mixer and paint the stones with that mixture. The moss will still grow (if you dont mix to long) and looks amazing when grown to full size... Saw it one RU-vid-Video, but I can't remember the name... 😅
I'm a newbie, you don't know how helpful this video has been as I'm totally clueless about what plants to get and even how to put them in the tank. Thank you x
I mean for babies most people would just do a grow out tank with a bare bottom and lots of plants Edit: some people wouldn't even do a growing tank and just put the babies in a plastic box in the tank, or some people just lea e jem and let them in the tank
LOVE this Aquascape design you have created!!! This is just STUNNING!!! Yes, Platys are just as prolific as Guppies!!! Great selection for this tank!!!
I got into mostly breeding very soo after getting involved with aquariums...that involved basically a bare bottomed tank...now that içve scaled back to less tanks i'm interested in a more aeshetic look of planted tanks...i've watched quite a few youtubers dealing with a q uascaping...that led me to subscribing...i've much to learn and i appreciate your down to earth approach..
It's like you've listened to me, I've been thinking on making such an aquascape for my new 160l aquarium and I'm sure your video is gonna be a great inspiration.
Good effort. Nice to see you try a diorama, you should do more like this. I'd like to see you make an IAPLC scape and film the journey of the whole build and entry to the 2022 contest.
I absolutely love this! My husband bought me a tank for Christmas but I'm a little scared to start it, been looking for inspiration & this tank is my favorite by far! 😊
Wow!! I’ve watched pretty much all your videos and am always excited when you release a new video with a new scape, but I have to say this is probably my favourite one yet!!! You’re so talented!
This will be my main inspiration on my next rescape. Thank you for sharing how to build this. I hope you'll have a video soon that have your subscriber's build (that's inspired with your build) and leave comments and suggestions!
Uuummm quit a lot of people on here seem to think 🤔 this is your best tank build so far,and I must agree 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻especially with the orange/red platys against the grey rock 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Never seen your videos before. I thought the aquascape looked suuuuper dope then you came in with that foggy film. Added a real nice effect to the “mysterious pathway” you were talking about.
I really like that you are expanding your range a bit more with scapes like these. They are quite a bit different than your usual tanks and I think that's a good thing both for your own growth but also for us as (long time) viewers
So I've watched all your videos numerous times, this Platy mountain tho is by far the one I've watched most! I just love it so much. It's seriously just so awesome, really feels as if I am looking at actual mountains and that valley path way is just perfect!
The only thing I would question is that rimless tanks should have foam mats under them and that the stand needs to be level. Also, the tank full with water and huge heavy rocks...woo hoo!!!! very heavy. Nothing I would greatly disagree on with anyone. I just enjoy watching aquarium people on youtube enjoy their water boxes as I do.
Looks great! I like that you did something different. The rocks make the Platy fish really stand out! I also love the curiosity of your Discus fish! They seemed to always be watching you!! ❤️
