AQUAPROS white cloud minnows

[@lotusaniansson3320]

Betta and sherry shrimps

[@mrmas2535]

I got some nano sized moss balls and used a needle w/fishing line and threaded a loop through them. I have them hanging like xmas ornaments on some manzanita.

[@katherinevo5065]

AQUAPROS I was inspired by you too setup my own nano tank

[@damon3714]

Pls put a betta it would be cool

[@_Luis__]

I'd do blue dream shrimp. They go well with the light substrate, but don't pop too much. They can graze on the algae and the shrimplets like to hide in the holes of the dragon stone. Another option would be some scarlet badis(Dario dario). They are small, not too colourful and will swim more in the bottom, so they will actually use the pathways you built. One apistogramma male would also be possible, but it's too small for a pair.

[@yannikmerten4619]

I think some Dario dario would look incredible. Even some Tanichthys albonubes could do the job.

[@tortoisefan826]

9:45 wtf 😂😂Best actor in the world

[@austenwhitcher1]

You should do a video updating/showing all the tanks you've already set up. I'm curious to see what happened with the 90g and the puffer tank

[@withthesehands5799]

I like it alot. I have been interested lately in planted tanks but I dont have the time or resources to set up and maintain one, so I wondered if I could escape the whole tank with just moss! Your video gave me the green light to go ahead and give it a try. Thanks a lot. I have two goldfish, a plastic bonsai tree and white stone gravel, so the new moss scape adds perfectly to the feel I have going on. 😁

[@octaviozermeno524]

"if you need to get your hands on some, wood" 😂😂

[@mrek2068]

Love the style of the aquarium, as it has so many viewpoints, and brilliant use of the moss balls.

[@corieledford3642]

Super cool idea! Low maintenance, looks great!

[@DannysAquariums]

Great video again Mike! Happy New Year! The Scape looks great!! It looks so natural! I like planted tanks! Can't wait to see it a few months later! I always enjoy your videos! This year is going to be great for you! Keep up the good work and thumbs up as always!

[@ianchristopher367]

Imcredibly beautiful, and Aquapro wasn't even expecting!

[@damionmarkham9835]

Right on , cool idea looks neat

[@frankvolz7021]

As long as it takes Marino moss balls to form, I really don't like ripping it apart. In nature Marino moss is beautiful, it grows in layers in the bottom of clear lakes in Japan and Iceland as beautiful balls. I would have liked this scape much better with java moss glued to the dragon stone and the Marimo moss balls layered on the bottom as found in nature. But that just me. The balls are very slow growing.

[@feogoaj9128]

I just got one two days ago and I love it! It’s so cute lol

[@jincha5183]

Pink African Dwarf Frogs would be a great addition to an Aquarium :)

[@chrissyofoldstones3210]

wow it looks so good! I would move the pea puffers in there.

[@taleandclawrock2606]

Love it, beautiful scape.

[@shaikmubasheer8222]

Will love to see the growth

[@Nighthawk9955]

Love you man keep the videos coming

[@Irish_guard]

It will be exciting to see those balls grow! That will make or break the tank, the hardscape is spot on.

[@amcgeckos]

Looks great I think and great views on both sides

[@katherinevo5065]

White cloud minnows would be cool

[@justinsanders8430]

Katherine Vo Agreed

[@MakeilasAqua]

I saw Glass Aqua do this and I've wanted to try it ever since, yours looks awesome!

[@d.j.6937]

I loved your idea of two tanks.Beautiful,Love to see red or Blue shrimp 🦐

[@scottmitchell8600]

Using this moss idea as inspiration for my new 40 gallon

[@Gwyndl]

Just bought 6 large moss balls,great ideas you have there.

[@cherylmcdougall3806]

Happy New year!!!! Great take it looks good both ways! I'm very jealous

[@edwardstables3247]

Side view, I think I will try this myself it’s an interesting concept. Great video.

[@RallyReviews]

Thank you for showing everything and describing with links the whole process.

[@jamesdockery7806]

I love the look and simplicity

[@noelvelasquez1234]

It looks good👍🏻👍🏻

[@fishead4464]

This is a super cool scape man. I have a moss ball in one my tanks that I squished and stretched out. I stuck it in a piece of wood and it looks pretty cool. I want to flatten one out and lay it out flat on the substrate as a kinda carpet. I think a small group of albino long fin danios would look good in this tank. It would add some simple elegance to a static scape.

[@fredlovegrove4312]

Love the aquascape

[@sobieskilinda]

Love it!

[@TheWaterBox]

I love the scape! The front does look better than from the side.

[@cyclone3999]

Great video man! I've been looking for a way to make my moss balls look more like natural plant growth I love moss balls. there is so much cool stuff that you can do with them. And they're really the only plants I have ever used. I've just never been able to dedicate the time to other plants. I love moss balls just cause they are so low maintenance and yet you get the health benefits of a planted aquarium.

[@mysterio505]

This has to be one of your more interesting builds. I’ve wondered if moss balls could be made into different shapes and be successful. Thank you for this video.

[@mariosaquarienwelt5125]

Nice Video and Nice Tank👍👍👍👍👍

[@timsaquatics661]

I think that tank looks amazing Cardinal tetras would look pretty cool (:

[@varanidguy]

A variety of colors of cherry shrimp. It would be cool to see red, green, yellow, and blue running around there and maybe an oto cat or two.

[@nickjohnson8495]

Is your 125 still up and running? Haven’t seen that thing in awhile.

[@angelheady1187]

Great vid

[@itsethan8484]

I think some glowlight tetras would look amazing, and I like both views too.

[@molshki]

I definitely think a dull coloured fish would look better in this case. Rice fish might be an interesting fish to try, I know Cory loves them

[@SachinShekhar]

Man, you nailed it..

[@barbedwirekitty]

A pea puffer might have fun exploring the terrain in there, and you could add/remove pieces to keep them interested. I'm not sure about bettas + dragon stone, although a plakat type might work? Some form of tiger shrimp might look cool. A little group of nannostomus anduzei would catch some attention with their silvery bodies but wouldn't take away from the scape. Or, and I don't know much about these so I'd check their suitability, pom pom crabs.

[@timcope7196]

looks good

[@tedlieberman4283]

A lot of dwarf chain loaches with dwarf neon rainbows would b sick

[@philliptorres2696]

BETTA put a betta in it!

[@tiana2786]

ugh id love to see a betta in there too! the temperature might be slightly off tho cuz moss balls thrive in 60 and bettas thrive in water closer to 80 degrees, so if he wants to see alot of growth in the moss balls a betta might be a bad choice.

[@Person-gc3jk]

That tank is amazing! Tell me your secrets!!!

[@sotero5674]

Laughing at your bullet proof moss ball reference 😂 thanks for the entertainment & info

[@jarretdietzler7750]

Neon tetras and cherry shrimp. Great vid!

[@sofia.w]

You should do a tour of all your tanks!

[@hrothschild5668]

I think you should add the same livestock as the old avatar tank. Orange Mexican Dwarf Crayfish, and a variety of shrimp types. Maybe even add a school of White Cloud Mountain Minnie’s seeing that they thrive in smaller tanks

[@joshuaeasterly7273]

This is the best channel

[@del_gato]

Tanichthys micagemmae, or vietnamese white clouds would be super cool! Plus, you wouldn't need to put a heater! :D

[@CorvusOscen]

Moss bowls!! Yessssssd!

[@MizzRivera86]

I rly like this tank

[@persephone_luna]

The side looks awesome and BETTA

[@libertybellcichlids3984]

Nice 👍 video bro

[@wisenose]

Microdevario kubotai - Green Rasbora would look awesome here.

[@briggsc4]

Moss balls rock, great addition to any tank. Side view looks more intricate IMO, especially when, if, you add fish.

[@ImprovisedSurvival]

Great videos, Liked and Subscribed from Chicago. If I may give you a little tip for adhesion. Aquarium silicon works really well for rocks and wood for three reasons. First it is easily removed or separated with a gentle tug if you want to remove or reposition it later. Second, it is flexible, which allows you to slightly reposition without the need to glue again. Notice I said slightly. Third, you now have the extra benefit to adhere things to the glass for a vertical dimension, and of course being able to remove it later if need be. The residue comes off glass with a razor blade. Actually number four is that it doesn't drip at all, and stays in place while you get into position. The only down side is the dry time is quite long in comparison.

[@violentcat345]

I'd love to see what CPDs and espei rasbora or brigitte rasbora but I don't know how well the CPDs would do on their own I think they need a dither fish to bring them out more otherwise they'll hide a fair bit. Or something a little different like some endlers, they have some beautiful colour variations and they're nice and small! Really liked the setup I always enjoy your scapes, you're always doing something that a little different from everybody else and I really appreciate that.

[@AdrianLopez-ts9pw]

The tank looks awesome I really like it right now I’m trying to explain to my mom that a tank isn’t super hard to take care of and she’s slowly thinking more about it. I worked over the summer and made a little over a grand part for a tank and the rest to save for a car this may anyways happy new year and keep making awesome vids

[@glenpope4955]

Adrian Lopez get a car and another job then get the tank. That's what I would do

[@buggyloustudiotv7134]

Happy New Year. Interesting.

[@jiki1356]

Something blue would look really good in there.

[@Jaywil07]

Boss status!

[@bluebowser3121]

Blue Dream shrimps and a betta. ^_^ If you wanted an extra species you could also add a pair of bamboo shrimp.

[@LaylaLuxe]

Cute tank

[@Sage-ec7gf]

I like it! Very unique look! I definitely think the marimo looks better than any more common moss would. I like how dense it is. My first thought for stocking was a betta, but I do think that would distract from the scape. If it were mine, I'd make it a shrimp tank! (To be fair though, I make all of my tanks shrimp tanks lmao.)

[@ckookla]

Looks fantastic!I'm heading down to tear up my moss balls now!

[@yannikmerten4619]

Wow! Love this idea, super cool! As a suggestion, maybe some dario dario would give the tank color.

[@nielswehrens8180]

Endler livebearers and amano shrimp. The shrimp are a natural colour, and will blend in quite nice. The female endlers are basically brown-ish as well, so don't pop. The smaller males do look insanely nice, and really make a nice centerpiece colour, that adds to the aquasqape. Either that or some ricefish, which are also livebearers that look really good.

[@xdsmastermia]

cool project. im experimenting with moth balls myself. very creative setup. I like the front and side equally

[@MissCandyTattoo]

It would be cool to use the filter this tank case with in another set up. Killi Fish would be a cool fish to see in this set up.

[@spectre7446]

9:45 is this video sponsored by Bob? Lol

[@lane008761]

Spectre #FreePlug

[@Xn7000]

I had a moss ball fall apart a few months back and basically did the same thing with the remaining parts. I just sort of tucked them in here and there where I thought they made sense.

[@BenM-nv6mu]

Aquascape looks great! I think a good shoal of CDP's would look awesome and not distract from the scape too much! Looking forward to see ohow tis turns out. Respect and peace, Ben

[@goldfishd1237]

Magnificent waterrrr

[@andysangels1970]

Don’t forget! If you’re trying to get your hands on some wood he’s got you with the discount code 😂😂😂

[@PrairieJournals]

White mountain cloud minnows. All sides are pretty.

[@gracie554]

I think a betta would look really cool in that tank.

[@CJBlack265]

Love this idea - I see a school of the nano green tetras darting along the pathways and thru the wood, with a colorful shrimp colony, black or blue maybe -

[@mazzosmark8985]

Just some super colorful shrimp would be awesome

[@baydenhellyer4772]

Awesome tank loving the scape I like the front the best You should do neon tetras with shrimp

[@lauraheaney8298]

I like both sides, but the side view is my favourite 😍

[@BRado]

i cant tell if thats a perfect location for that tank or a perfect tank for that location....

[@AquaApprentice]

I definitely like the front better. How about some guppies

[@joshm3360]

I just bought around 8 moss balls what a coincidence that this video was made

[@morciego]

That looks really good. You should make that into an Asian tank because the scape looks like Asian pillar mountains. Maybe a betta along with panda loach or bumblebee goby or peacock gudgeons. Where do you get the back wallpapers by the way?

[@SheWritesSeaofStars]

Awesome video! (Also, does anyone else think his voice sounds like Chris Pratt?)

[@grunclepossum6967]

I like the hardscape layout, but I think the marimo would look a lot nicer if it wasn't so evenly dotted across everything. An asymmetric arrangement would look a lot more natural. As for stocking, shrimp would be my choice. Those little guys love moss balls.

[@patche736]

I like the ideal, i used to have a moss ball but it just set in my tank off to the side

[@jerryebner7582]

The front view looks best. Betta fish combo setup

[@ariadraws3163]

Cool.

[@xeronox1241]

Love the corner view best actually this it looks swert on that angle

[@thathikingfamily6310]

My first and only "plant" in my tank was 2 moss balls. I love them!!! But I am starting to feel braver to try a new plant.

[@dominicmountford9631]

Ughhh girl the angles tho! Yall better work on that! ❤️

[@TheJestermint]

pygmy rasboras and dwarf shrimp! I like the side view better because of the sort of swooping line of the peaks.

[@Bodangers]

add a black betta fish! He would be the black dragon guarding the moutains
