Recently I've been really interested in making more natural look / realistic environments for nano fish and this is something I'll be doing more of. It started with the neon tetra tank and now we have the ember tetra tank. What other nano fish would you like to see? I already have something cool planned for the blind cave fish (I never took them back to the shop in the end as I liked them too much :) Equipment used in this video (all links affiliate): Tank: amzn.to/3nD5UHm Light: US amzn.to/2Fjn3o8 UK amzn.to/33OpI2D Media Bags: US amzn.to/34Kaf2N UK amzn.to/3lAj3z1 Stainless Lily Pipes: US amzn.to/2FqHpvR UK amzn.to/2RlfrnC Filter: US amzn.to/3iNeVtW UK amzn.to/2Fo774a Hardscape & Plants: www.aquariumgardens.co.uk/ (the round rocks are Yangtse Rock) Plants supplied by: tropica.com/en
I'd love to see a Iwagumi build in that center tank! you have such great complex builds - I'd love to see what you can do with that challenge to keep it minimal! Set to scale with very small fish - like your neons and these Embers, hope to see what you create!
dude you gotta get on to adding some tiger barbs or something for that asian tank man. needs more. and corys in the discus please, sterbai or pandas shall ne approved lol!!! ember tank looks awesome. update on the bonsai, maybe stock it with shrimpies? hope panch is doin ok with that guy. can we get the ranchu crew moved soon? they need some more friends (at least another oranda type to go with ember), we all want to see it, you know it. make it so. oh and dude, can you make use of your south american drwarf cichs (just rams wasnt it?)? they are so beautiful and didnt get much coverage. be ace if you could do something special for them in the new studio. apistos and rams are my fave. be ace to see you make a feature of them in the new place. its lookin dope man.
MD those stones are perfect for the scape I would like to do for my betta! Smooth dark stones! If you found those you should collect and sell then cause I can’t find anything like that! They look great! Great video and scape as always!
I'd love to create a beautiful tank like yours but I am on a budget. Do you think you can do a video where you try to make a beautiful tank but also affordable?
All the stuff in this aquarium is very affordable. Apart from the filter, I use all the cheapest equipment I can source on line from Amazon or ebay (check the links in the description or pinned comment). The filter though has a built in heater and pre filter which I think makes it well worth the extra cost to just a normal canister filter.
Do you think a cheap filter with an inline heater could work? I also want to attempt a shallow pond tank like yours, but I want to divide it between aqua soil and pond soil. So I can put some flowering plants in it too. Do you think that's possible or do you not recommend it?
You are still looking at £5-7 per pot of tropica. They're great, but can get expensive. I buy invitro from K2aqua on ebay. And there are others sellers too. You have to grow the plants out a bit as they're not quite adult, but I had great success with h.pinitafida, l.sessiflora, anubias, l.cardionalis, s.repens and have some mini super red coming. Its become an addiction.... thx md and g farmer.
Great idea about the media bags. I love how creative you are and how you continually explore new things. The tank looks fantastic and the tetras are perfect. Look forward to all your posts especially the longer build ones, makes my day!
Really love how natural this scape looks. This is the lovely thing about having multiple tanks. You can try out different plants and styles without making a mess of one tank!
I also cant watch it, not because the fish could go down the drain, but because of how much force he is flushing them against the net with and not hurrying to put them in a tank. Also - i dont think he should put the fish there. I watched the whole thing and i heard what he said, but that’s not enough.
What was the point in sweeping the tiny bit of aquasoil off the bottom when you're going to put gravel in that area. Your scapes are average & just the same as everybody else's!
I'm so late on this but YES! 🤪🤭😜😂🤣😉 I think Walmart is getting those same wooden pieces this year! LOL 👌👏Good eye catch though! 👁👁 At least one of us got 20/20! 👍🙌
Love your videos! Your are truly an aquarium artist! I love how the ember tetras school together. I was thinking of using endler guppies but now I might have to reconsider!
MD can you make an aqua scape with a plot, for example, blue sea with an island and a tree (driftwood with moss) grows on this island, there is also a cave or a hut there, and a path that leads from the sea to the hut/cave...and fish are like birds in this picture... stuff like this.
Put a small rock on them, add more substrate or just keep placing back in their spots until they root. It usually takes a week or two until they establish roots.
Md tanks is best...u r awesome. Lv to see your videos...this scape is so useful for hobbiest who want qucik setup ...this tank have no beautiful plants
What do you do when you take down an aquascape? Do you try to separate the gravel, decorative sand and fine sand or do you just mix it in with the soil?
Talks about how unrealistic the other tank looks and about how in nature they wouldn't have a bunch of different species. Then went and put several plants and made it look similar to the other tank. 😅
If you add chlorinated water, then add dechlorinator, the water will be full of chemical gunk, even if the chlorine is reduced. If you filter out the chlorine before adding it to the tank, three's no chlorine and no gunk...
I've had my ember tetras over 2 weeks and they hide in the plants mostly. In another tank I have cherry 🍒 barbs that are up front and personal all the time. Xx
Hallo MD....Das sind wirklich mega aquarium...ich kanns kaum glauben..respekt!!😊..wie lange bleiben die aquariums stehen bis sie neu gemacht werden???...lg toto😊
