I just started breeding Blue eyed rainbows, they are amazing little fish. Hopefully when I get a big school I can feature them in one of my videos as well. Cheers MJ

[@cozmin1424]

thanks for putting out the name of what these fish were! so stunning!

[@IMaqua]

@@cozmin1424 Pseudomugil luminatus, amazing little fish.

[@Korys_Aquatics]

MJ you are by far my favorite content creator in the hobby and very much likely the reason I got into the hobby last year. Cant WAIT for the studio reveal man !

[@IndoorEcosystem]

Have to agree with that as well! 🙂

[@stevebell3537]

Agree! Plus we are all awaiting the studio update!!

[@nancywaterhouse3135]

Great video, focus on crypts is an exciting idea. It's looking beautiful. Using slower growing plants means a slower-evolving and maybe longer lasting scape--appeals to me. Excited for the 'studio' unveiling. Thanks for keeping up with videos while you get settled in to your new home :) I love my UNS Delta filter .

[@shlomithardy5734]

Stunning . Looking forward to see the new fish room .

[@Mar_ko63291]

I plan to have a tank for years, unfortunately I can't have it for next +10 years. Fortunately I've found your channel! I admire your work, I learn a lot. You are doing great work. Thank you!

[@BTQ410]

This was timely. I have a 29 gallon that I am getting ready to setup and I was thinking of using just crypts. Like you, I love them. I am thinking of building a cave system under a root with crypts on top of the caves, around the roots, and moss on the branch’s above the caves on one side of the tank for a pair of L394 Tiger Plecos. Still playing with the scape for the rest of the tank. I am still working on the rest of the fish too. I am thinking a Daisy Blue rice fish and then a centerpiece fish of some sort. I have a short list, but still doing some research. I have many of those crypts in another tank. If you have never done the pink flamingo, it really turns the color of a flamingo with the lights. It is stunning. I read it was hard to grow, but so far mine has grown like a weed.

[@squamsh122]

Crypts are my favorite aquarium plant. Wonderful build!

[@Raindrop_17]

👍 love your videos!

[@tracys.6033]

Blue eyed rainbows are such a gorgeous fish. Tank looks great. Thanks for sharing

[@Ankescapes]

Wow, I would never have thought that a tank with only Crypts could look so nice! This is a very beautiful - and coulourful- setup! 😍 I also keep these blue eyes and love them very much. Good choice 👍

[@kafkamatt]

Looking good! Can't wait to see the studio update as well! 💯🌿

[@steffanjansenvanvuuren3257]

I also love cryptocoryne, grew up with them. It was the first plant I had in my first aquarium in the 80's, it was one single centrepiece. I miss having an aquarium.

[@craigquinn8225]

that might be my favourite tank that you've done. love it...

[@nickbovee4372]

I had my doubts about a crypts only tank, but you made me reconsider. As always, we can expect beauty from your skilled scaping 😊. Can't wait for the aquarium studio tour!

[@cozmin1424]

Amazing built as always, MJ! Stunning fish you got there! I started discovering more crypts as time progressed. I definitely have to make an aquarium filled with them!

[@cherylmartin9994]

Loving the way the tank is looking🤩Great choice on the fish too! I'm a big crypt fan so nice to see them get their own tank to shine in.

[@ricardotolosa2671]

Hi MJ, pretty cool aquascape, on of my favourite............kudos mate!

[@k3lit0]

I'm mostly impressed with the moss. It grew so much!

[@Scaper_Girl]

Love this idea, scape looks great!

[@smashingamin]

Cryptocoryne is a really solid plant.and is also really forgiving! Certainly can make any scape look great especially with your skill!

[@MandyJane123700]

It looks great, those fish are beautiful.

[@leventegerhat8123]

Amazing! I would love to see you scape a low-tech aquarium as well.

[@DairyCat]

I did an anubias only scape once but it became an algae bomb. I think if I was to do it again, I would have put some fast growing stem plants in first and then once things stabilised, take them out and set the light to a lower setting. I think crypts grow a little faster than anubias but still slow growing so definitely something to look out for IMO.

[@Arnehooijer]

Cool idea! Well done!

[@MephydeliosMarskiger]

Beautiful as always. For the fish good choice , I got and for happy accident breed pseudomugil gertrudae(yellow blue eye spotted)

[@andrescontrerasvargas5865]

One of my favorite fish! nice tank

[@TheLiddojunior]

I just started watching and love the idea !

[@dutchsmuggler8176]

Hé MJ, great setup as usual. I was wondering, I just got myself a biomaster 250 for a 60p tank, but obviously the flow I a bit to much. What solution should I go for in your opinion? 1. Use the 16mm tubing with an additional valve in the outlet to restrict the flow and use 16mm lily pipes Or 2. And the valve as mentioned above and reduce the tubing to 12mm and use 12mm lily pipes? Or maybe you recommend me something completely different… Thanks in advance Greets from 🇳🇱

[@williamannelli9822]

Very beautiful tank

[@frankvermeulen4621]

Just got a UNS 60U last week! I was going to put it on a bigger Juwel cabinet I have already standing around, but a Lido 120 cabinet would be a better fit. Also ordered almost 80 euros of Crypts as well. Not for the 60U, but still... 🤣 Talk about coïncidence!

[@coolumar335]

I know you didn't want the hardscape to be the focal point for this one, but it turned out amazing! Gotta remember the cotton gluing trick for later!

[@nikolairehr7234]

Hey Mark, amazing aquascape as always!! Love the idea with only crypts! I have done something similar with the Juwel lido 120 cabinet and the Superfish scaper 90 rimless aquarium. But my concern was that the cabinet was bowing in the middle. I was wondering how yours is holding up? And has anyone else had this problem? Cheers

[@namesbinge3073]

I always intrigued by UNS's nano filter. Hope they introduce their nano filter and imported to the EU.

[@PureAndShrimple]

I love those fish! I've not seen them before.

[@Wz6694]

Hello MJ Great aquarium. Really appreciate that you share with us your knowledge and experience. Do diatoms (brown dust algae) appear in your aquariums? In mine usually within the first month (3rd week) they cover everything - plants, gravel etc. After the second month they dissapear but some of they stay on leaves or equipment (like empty shell). I need to remove them manually. Mine aquariums have a lot of lights, co2, external filters and substrate under the gravel or substrate. They also happened to appear on Low Tech aquariums. Do you have any idea how to prevent those brown dust algae to appear?

[@evilone543]

I keep saying I want to do a crypt only tank, but haven’t gotten around to it. Well done!

[@AquascapingAmazing]

You can completely complete it within 1 week with 30 minutes to 1 hour each day to satisfy your passion. Before, when I first started being passionate about this field, I really wanted to make one to play with, but because I was busy, I never did. But after a long time I told myself no, I have to spend at least 30 minutes every day to fulfill this passion. And so after more than a week I got my first tank even though it wasn't as perfect as expected

[@madhatterjones4781]

Such a cool tank. Yewww looks great. Crypt jungle

[@NO-uq5lj]

Such an informative video, as always, thanks for the great content and inspiration.

[@HenrikVillaumeMeyer]

What type of "auto" water filling system is in use @13:07?

[@MJAquascaping]

This is the hose from my RO system ☺️ I’ll show it soon when I reveal the new studio

[@johnnydubbsaquascaping]

Very nice indeed. I do love crypts 😀, you have inspired me to create a Crypt scape of my own, only one problem, I need some crypts :)

[@cr0n557]

blue eyes blue eyes oh i love blue eyes rainbows very easy to breed and fascinating to watch

[@petsmania214]

Crypts are always my favourite plants 😊

[@AHGAQUATICS]

Great video ya agree with rimless tanks do you know if there is a cabinet available for the 70l dennerle scapers tank? I’ve searched online with no luck

[@MJAquascaping]

I used to keep a 70L scapers tank on a slightly reinforced IKEA besta cabinet 😊

[@HdbfbdDbhrhr]

It's funny watching this now because I just did a very similar set up last week 😂 I built a juwel lido 120 stand but mine is grey version, moved the shelf higher too so I could put my biomaster and co2 inside. But I don't have a light for the tank yet. I can't decide between the twinstar EC or SM. I have watched you use both in the past but it's hard to see from video if SM is much better or similar. Is the colour on the SM much better than the EC? Both are more than powerful enough for me, it's mostly between the colour saturation as I like my red plants

[@MJAquascaping]

I would go with the SM 👍

[@Hey-q8i]

Nice fish and i love crypts. Which of the Wio Sands is this please?

[@madhatterjones4781]

Can't wait for the studio teveal

[@youwhenhow]

Thank you so much for sharing it with us. Are you planing putting any shrimps into it?

[@MJAquascaping]

Didn’t show it in the video, but I already have a few amano shrimp and low grade neocaridina shrimp in there!

[@Hey-q8i]

Some of these crypts get very huge :D

[@stephenchow5161]

i always wanted to try this as well

[@AquascapingAmazing]

It will be great every morning when you wake up or after a long day of work to see the tank creating a feeling of relaxation and stress reduction. It's not too difficult to make your own tank, my friend, if you can, do it now 😄

[@rickyabdullah4758]

Nice plant

[@ChrisJones-nf4hf]

In your opening talks, what light is over the tank in the background.

[@phazercoretech6841]

Is the Delta 90 too small for the 60U? I am planning to have a fully stock 60U for 20 neocaridina shrimp and 8 pygmy corydoras, (that I already have in a 60L), and get a group of ember tetras and a group of celestial pearl danios. I am trying to decide between a Delta 120 and the Biomaster 250 thermo. What should I get?

[@MJAquascaping]

Biomaster 👍

[@areacode911]

Cool i bought a UNS 60U not too long ago😊

[@Steve-qn8gn]

I believe the shelf in the stand is actually part of the structure that makes it more stable. By moving it up you may have decreased its stability.

[@MJAquascaping]

Could be! But this stand is designed for a slightly bigger and heavier tank, so I’m sure it’ll be fine 😊

[@RobHoad-lt4jm]

How bright do you have your light for this aquarium?

[@Jenne2Z]

Love your vids

[@ANICETONANOS]

Watching from Saudi Arabia🙏🙏😊

[@iKorvik]

How do you color up your neons? I have a group of 15 and they are very pale. And one more strange thing is that they are always hidden somewhere.

[@MJAquascaping]

They will only show their best colours if they are comfortable. Consider adding some floating plants or another more confident dither fish to help the neons feel more comfortable.

[@lorenmws]

Was hoping you would talk a little bit about crypt melt. Just started a 90p and I'm 2 weeks in. All the stem plants and carpet is growing well but all my crypts are starting to melt.

[@Ray47nl]

What i miss on your channel (and almost all youtubers with very good content), is a video for real beginners with a small budget. I know you have some budget video's but then you have always some wood, or stone or plants from other projects that you use in that scape. (and looking online at prices for wood, stone, snails, shrimps, fish and plants that can add up quickly). What i need as a beginner is a video where in someone has a tank + light and a budget (lets say € 300), then make a plan for the scape and plants and take that plan and budget to a aquarium store and show people what the best buys are for that budget and in what cases it is totaly up to their preference. That doesn't mean that i don't like your content at the moment, but for a starting scaper i can not use a € 2000 budget and make something, for starters i don't have that money laying around, but also as a starter you can make mistakes and even don't like the hobby at all, so then all money is lost. I hope you can help me with this.

[@d3BZify]

What is the name of the moss you used ?

[@MJAquascaping]

Weeping moss!

Hey MJ is that the delta 90? I literally just got one yesterday. How you liking it? You got an honest couple of words about it or you gonna do a review on it? Keep up the good work by the way. Always watch your videos

[@MJAquascaping]

Heya! Yeah Delta 90 😊 It’s a decent filter, not wow but does the job. It was a little noisy for the first few days, but now it’s relatively quiet. In terms of flow I would have preferred a little bit more power for this 20 gallon.

[@samkoz2045]

@@MJAquascaping i also have 20 gallon. Should have gone with the 120 delta. My one is pretty quiet. I think its just air trapped. It started off making noises but i pressed the primer a couple of times and a bunch of air came out and it was quiet from then on. You think the 120 delta would have been overkill for a 20 gallon?

[@samkoz2045]

Im doing a dark start now and that spiderwood i have is covered in that slime hardcore. Also got a bunch of bio film. Using neo soil Pretty much listening to everything you say haha. Wrgb2 light too Anyways just wanted to let you know you doing a great job keep it up.

[@razinmuntasir777]

Can you do a aquascape with only hardscape???

[@fusefoes9000]

Less start-up algae with the ADA additives is my experience as well. So maybe it’s not all coincidence. 🤔

[@Richard-jl8rf]

What’s the stand he uses, can’t quite get the name down.

did you get algae? with crypts growing so slow.
