Those guramis make bubble nests. So maybe you wanna see if they can get a corner with no flow at the surface and some floating plants. Duckweed works well.

I think both of your dwarf gouramis are male. There is plenty of color variation, but the wild-ish males have red and blue stripes, while females have a silvery blue color all over. But the most noticeable difference that doesn't change with the color is the dorsal (top) fin. Males's fins are long and pointy, while females fins are short and round, usually not even close to the base of the tailfin, while males' reach is longer than the tailfin base. That's a very common difference in labyrinthfish species (gouramis, bettas, paradisefish, etc.).

The male dwarf gourami will build a nest at the surface by spitting out bubbles and combining them with bits of leaves. Adding some floating plants will create a space in which he can do that. If all goes well the female will lay her eggs there and the male will look after them and protect the wrigglers. Good luck!

I had a dream where I was trying to put the one last thing in one of your aquariums to make it perfect. They already are, mate! So cool to see your creations after over 4 decades of aquarium experience myself. It's a whole new hobby now, and you are showing how it's done. Thank you, sir.

MD just in case you havent worked it out yet the little rasbora at 4:15 is an Emerald Dwarf Rasbora, I have 8 in with my betta they are lovely fish colours are less obvious but i love their stripes 💚

Hi MD both pearl gouramis are male the females are duller in colour have a smaller dorsal fin and usually have a plump belly

I love your videos! The best part is that you don’t know the names of all the fish, or how to pronounce the plant names sometimes. It makes your content more relatable than many others. I love how down to earth you are! I look forward to watching all of your videos and you inspire me to rescape my tanks when they are no longer bringing me joy, or no longer properly serving the fish in them. I love your style!

Do be aware that the Rosy Barbs grow up to six inches long. As for the Pearl Gouramis, you can determine their gender by looking at their dorsal fin, females have a more rounded dorsal fin. It's the same for all Trichopodus species.

I hope the dwarf gourami live happy and long. I've genuinely only ever heard horror stories of them, but they've been on your rack for a while. Good job

Hello Md, beautiful tanks. But the left tank isnt a good home for the gouramis. Too much waterflow and not enough plants at the top. You should reduce the waterflow a lot. Otherwise they won‘t live long.

Looking awesome, really getting a thing for aquascaping at the moment.

That's two male Dwarf Gouramis. The females are almost half the size and mostly silver in colour. Also bubble nest breeders. had some success in breeding with dense coverage of jungle val.

I really adore Chunks 🥰 He and Timmy need some extra screen time!

I am very excited to see what you do with the ricefish. I like viewing mine from both the top and the side so it sounds like your plan for yours is right up my alley.

Chunks looks great!

Hi MD, another awesome setups. I'm thinking you can make a long shallow tank setup on one of the layer of your aquarium wall. Maybe a fast flow tank like you made in Maidenhead before or the pond type for the ricefish

5:30 i thought the gouramis do not lay eggs but build a foam nest

With the fin at the back the male pearls have a more extendings hence why it looks like it’s been in a fight also males have vibrant orange chin whereas with the females the fin at the back is more smooth and rounded with less orange in the chin area. I love the vids and have been influenced to start a wild forms angel planted tanks. got multiple red manacapuru pairs and starting on the f1 altums now. Then will start on the Rio nannay.

The 8 ft tank is looking amazing. The colours of the plants are incredible

Is it capable of you to do a tank with an underground access? For the fish to go in and out of

Nothing wrong with a good forest scape 😀😀 I just added Celestial Pearl Danios to mine.

Awesome MD xx look forward to the puffers new palace xxx I just bought some new fish, 3 glass cat fish ( all they had left at my local store), would be lovely to see you do a species tank for them xxx

Love your channel. You have inspired me to set up a natural cube for shrimp. Keep up the good work 👏🏻 from Australia 🇦🇺

what a great collection of aquariums,real nice

Always great when fish are added!! Think you have 2 males dwarf gourami and these are Trigonostigma espei, lambchop rasbora. Like them more than the regular harlequin rasbora

Another awesome tank setup/ setups, 5 band barbs and odessa barbs are also a few you could look into. Love the 8ft cant wait to create one of my own, keep the videos coming always anxious for the next one.

Best job ever be MD fishtanks........ Whole take care of fish.. awesome

You most likely have two male pearl gouramis.

Im confused about the dwarf gourami because of the dorsal fins and coloration, not sure if they’ve been bred for color, but in the states females are mostly silver with a rounded dorsal, again im not sure if these have been enhanced but it looks like two males to me

Great looking tanks

Wie immer wunderschöne Aquarien! 👍

not harlequins, but actually lambchop (trigonostoma espei) rasboras, I have them in my tank along with hengeli rasboras (trigonostoma hengeli)

Killing it as always man

What is going on with the saltwater tank?

Hope you see this MD! We recently came back from holiday to find that our house sitter killed our tank which was rough, we have since dismantled and started begging the process of rebuiilding and found that we were just constatnly referencing information we learnt from yourself so much so we thought it would be really useful if you made a "how to" book on fishkeeping and aquascaping. I highly recommened you look into writing your own book based on your tanks as a guide to fish keeping, planting and overall design. I would definitely be the first customer!

That puffer tank is going to be awesome! cant wait to see it.

Love your stuff

The 8ft is evolving so fast ❤

I reckon you need to get some altum angels for the 8ft tank. Perfect fish.

13:58 how he was touching her by his ventral fins 😂❤

Those are lambchop rasbora not true harlequins, and the extra rasbora is a dwarf emerald rasbora- but they look great!

Gorgeous as always. (I mean the tank obviously 😂)

Look at the growth in those tanks

You are just the best! I love your channel!

I love dwarf gouramis, their such a great fish. Thanks for inspiring me to try out aquascaping, must be something in the water though cause I want to get more tanks.😅

Been waiting for this. 😂❤

Awesome updates, can't wait to see the puffer tank. 😀

Would you consider making an African butterfly fish tank ?

Loving the 3 tanks. I use to have a dwarf gourami with the harlequin rasboras too and they were a great match. That tank is awesome too with the big flat rock in the middle jutting out towards the front. Only thing missing from these 3 tanks is some cory cats! Where are the corys? haha.

Rosy barbs are amazing and underrated fish, they are great algae eaters

Rosy Barbs can be temperamental if the numbers get too low. I started with a group of 5 or 6, and once I lost 1 after a while it all went downhill. They're like African cichlids where if there are enough in number they cant be singly picked on as easy. I only have two left and somehow they tolerate each other. They dont bother my other fish like Angels with their long fins, which is surprising.

The Mbumas need an eight foot tank. They are so beautiful

The single "rasbora" that went in with the harlequins is actually a Danio erythromicron. Can be crossbreed with the celestian pearl danios.

The pearl gouramis are male and female :) You can see it easily on the fins :)

Nice vid!👍👍 Feels illegal to be this early 😅😅

Do you still have your saltwater tank and what camera do you use?

Pond to 8 foot.. Still 100% watch record, LETS GO MD

In Australia, rosy barbs are sold as feeder fish. I think because from my experience, they are not great community fish

You’re gouramis look so healthy. The tendrils on the pearl gourami female are so long!!

Two male gouramis. Need very slow surface water flow and floating plants as they make bubble nests.

If I recall correctly you have kept the albino cherry barb before. Seeing them in the videos is what made me love them as much as I do.

I love his tanks. I just watched a video on rainbow shiner he should try to get them

The dwarf gourami won’t attack other fish, I have some with tetras and betas and they only annoy each other.

Malawi mountain 🤘🤘

03:05 those are not harlequin rasboras, but hengel rasboras. Harlequins are not as golden as hengels. I have the same pairing in my tank. A school of 20 of the hengels and a pair of honey gourami

🤩

MD, you should get a blue rainbow snake head fish. Be cool to see a natural scape with one of those in your collection. 👀💯👍🏾

What kinds of snails do you recommend putting in planted tanks? Just set up my first aquascape with the help of your channel 😊

God i wish i had room for something like this in my apartment!

I love maintenance videos😂

Please please do a large triangular corner tank !!

Wow those malawi cichlids are getting big now arent they!

My cherry barbs are so mean. Mean to each other, mean to snails, mean to the shrimp.

Would love a Malawi rescape. Do that one! 😂

The mystery rasbora is an emerald rasbora. - D erythromycin

Screen in the porch.... Then it's "inside" 😉

Hey MD! Love the video! Though I would like to know what music it is you use for your outro and where I can find a full version, it's a really good bop!

Looking at the dorsal fins the pearl gourami are both boys

I wish we can get these super fish kits here in the U.S

Any tips on getting my stems to stay in the substrate better?

I hope you see this but i have a question about your pest snails, i love them in my tank but their shells always start to go white or dissolve. What are you doing that helps keep them so nice looking? or do you get the same problem? Just wondering if im missing an additive or something?

what is the plant in the middle tank on the middle of the tank? smaller leaves more horizontal growth than vertical.

Definitely not a pair of dwarf gourami. Both male one is just more dominant. Females are a silvery gray or brownish. You usually dint find them in the pet trade. Cause they are dull in color.

hii just wanna ask a question. why don't you build like a montser fish tank? it would be cool I think

Just curious what camera gear you use? Incredible shots!

The black molly and swordtail tank is my favorite and it's gonna go away 😭

I love you MD Tanks u better reply to me

Been trying to find out for awhile. Do you have a link to the hose head you have for filling tanks?

Looking at the T shirt, are discus coming back anytime soon 🤔

The mystery rasbora looks like an Emerald rasbora to me.

6:58 Please tell me what that plant is right in the middle of the tank?

you should try making a saltwater tank

Good luck breeding those gouramis. Both are male.

Don't you find that the roots from the peace lily over take too much of the tank? Mine have over taken the tank after 1,5 years.

Cant wait to see the Malawi Cave Apartments tank build !!!

Pretty sure that different rasbora is a "Brilliant Rasbora"

Gourami blow bubbles on top of the water like fighter fish

What kind of fish is chunks please?

19:54 Pea Puffer forest? 🐡😕
