Endler Guppies are one of my favourite fish. Let's give them an awesome breeding tank. The snakeskin is my favourite so I'm hoping to get some babies out of this project :)

[@jamesoddy1064]

love the vid as usual. Just wanted to know if you could let me know where you got the smaller tank under your amazon tank, the one holding the plants, thanks 👍🏼

[@NXAlpha]

Dear MD, i must say that the tank is great, theyre innefficient as a breeding tank since breeding setups are just bare tank with a filter and floating plants, i think your endler isnt necessarily endler, theyre endler crosses, since endlers doesnt come with that pattern, and snakeskin endlers are more guppy than endler, anyways... gotta love that editing

[@Newtonturtle95]

Md please contact me, my local fish shop has a zebra pleco that you’ve always been after I believe I live fairly close to you as well Guys please help me get md to respond we all wanna see him do a beautiful tank for it

[@joostvandenhoek9409]

Hey MD, just wanted to let you know (in case you didn’t already) that those cherries and blue shrimp could crossbreed into a brownish colour. Assuming both are neocaridina species of course. That’s all, amazing tank again, love the work!

[@myraian]

Hi the brown colour sand is what sand?

[@freddiehill28]

When I saw the thumbnail I thought this was a 20 gallon scape. It's a credit to you that you can make something so small look so full of life.

[@thegreglin332]

I would like this comment but the likes are perfect (Haha 69 funny number I have no humour), so instead ill just reply a like. A like.

[@jennyagirsdotter9871]

The one thing I Most apreciate about your scapes/tank set ups (apart from the Good looks of course) is the low Tech aspect - it gives the feeling this hobby is for everyone and not Only for the Ones that can afford the high end, high cost products. You are my favourite and no 1 inspiration working with my own tanks :-D Thanks!

[@JimBeef67]

Guess you’re making use of the family not going on holiday for the past year 😂 never seen someone make so many tanks over a few months

Always posting when I'm about to sleep! Ah well, I'll watch it in the morning. Looking at the thumbnail tho the tank looks great!

This has to be my favourite scape. Open and airy, delicate views. Top notch!!

[@claudiaceleste777]

Okay, montecarlo tied to rock - game changer for me!

[@proxactual]

Protip for MC planting: pick yourself up some bamboo cocktail skewers that have the decorative knot on the top. Insert them into the soil, so that the knot holds down the small bunches of MC. They can then be removed once the MC roots take hold; pushed deeper into the soil later on; or left in place so that the MC grows over it

[@888fluffy]

great job on the tank the drift wood that you pick out work out very well it gave the right color to it like a Orange red to orange brown tint color with the green , Anyway keep living the dream M.D

The hardscape is spot on. Beautiful!!! Liked.

Yes MD....you read my mind...i am thinking endler and red cherry in a simple scape in the future....great minds think alike. I've not had guppies for ages, miss having them

I LOVE this tank! Might be one of my top 3 MDFishtanks! Do you still say sonewhere what the music is MD?

[@naddyn685]

I am seriously hooked on these videos! Just purchased some aquatic plants late evening after work. An amazing hobby and learnt a lot on your channel. Only thing that stumps me is hoovering substrate in tricky areas…small plastic tubing has too much suction power compared to a manufacturable gravel cleaner… rips shreds through my leaves or uproots plants! A learning curve :)

[@pedrocastel8177]

Really inspiring !! One of my favourite Chanel! Thx from Bolivia

[@ros7754]

Amazing hardscape! Really liking this one

[@zeropointenergy1574]

Possibly your best scape yet.

[@bluethebetta392]

Awesome! Another endlers scape. epic, my own endlers just love swimming about and hiding in plants lol

[@AllanCox7]

This might honestly be my favourite scape yet of yours. Very inspiring!

Wow! Now I need to create that endlers tank I’ve been dreaming about. I just keep collecting tanks and creating more scapes. It’s so much fun and totally addictive!

I am planning on putting together an aquascaped 20 gallon with some guppies and shrimp! Gotta include some pearlweed!

That’s such a nice tank and in this video I like that you showed information about the materials you used and gave some tips through out the scape. 👍

Loved this one, nice and chilled bud, Just added some endler guppy hybrids to my 25L tank with some cherry shrimp, hopefully all goes well 👍

great video, really relaxing to watch, just what i needed today. Tank looks amazing as well!

I think that you should do more tutorial videos, in the sense of new hobbyists. Like me who are budgeted and are limited to resources, or limited to places they can shop, keep up the good work though I have learned so much just from watching you and learning.

[@VictoriaLeeCreates]

[@thegunnerjax]

Lovely scape as always 💪. Just a tip, maybe move the slightly taller 40cm tank on the rack to the center so it's symmetrical just a thought tho

[@csharpe5787]

No, more weight at the bottom is best.

[@michelegardner3173]

My thought too gunnerjax, that slight height discrepancy on the end would drive me nuts!
