MD always comes to the rescue on my overtime Saturday

[@subhsubh3002]

Literally

[@cherylharless281]

I love your full tanks, but this Cichlid tank has a really fresh view with all the clean open space. I like it!

[@frantort9369]

Lots of plants can look great. I prefer Not so many fish and not so many different fish in a tank. Better chilled than restless. But you habe both in the gallery.

[@rrusselljr67]

Man you’ve come so far from your humble beginnings. This is the result of hard work and focus. Trial and tribulations, failures and successes. I’ve learned so much from your channel. And I thank you for all your help with this hobby. ✌🏻

[@Warhawk107]

@MD Fish Tanks Would love to see another shot at the Archer fish, you had them for such a little amount of time before moving to your new studio, we didn't get to see enough of them!

[@galiamotala]

Loved this update! I have to sat that you’ve reignited my passion for keeping fish and aquascaping MD, it really brings me joy! 🖤

[@Raphael.P.]

I really love that you are keeping your aquariums for a long time now. ❤👍

[@SamPonjican]

Enjoyed the studio tour, MD! I did experience some PTSD when you mentioned Cladophora. I really hope it doesn't take over the studio the way it did in my aquariums. I've had to work hard to eradicate it after it spread everywhere!

[@frosteezdude1819]

From your home shed to this, that’s one heck of an achievement. Congratulations to you 🎉

[@amx1820]

The odessa barbs deserve a tank of their own, such a stunning fish. A school of tiger barbs would really look great in Timmy's tank

[@Pocketus]

You shouold try Sailfin Tetras, they are so amazing, one male has gotten really really big now aswell. Have them in a 110L aquarium now for 6 month and really love them. Attitude tough fish thats also very gorgeous and beautiful to look at

[@cottagedweller4369]

Wow, that was the most beautiful ciklid tank I have ever seen! I have never liked ciklids, apart from dwarf ciklids like rams and apistogrammas, and never liked ciklid tanks. This looks like a paradise island in the sea with the sky all around it 🌅☀️. So light and airy, and the fish like sunbeams from gleaming in the sand and sea. Maybe I can like some ciklids now. Would really like to have a tank like this! So beautiful!

[@GenXHeart]

Hey! A whole week and Timmy hasn't remodeled?! I would think that's the biggest compliment yet! Aww Hi Gracie! Cute doggie!! 😊

[@the_duke_of_pants]

Been away from the channel for a while. Had to check out the update with the new shop, and now I remember why I want a tank so much. Your tanks are inspiring, sir.

[@Chompchompyerded]

Wow! Just wow! I don't know what to say other than it's masterwork upon masterwork, one following another. You make living art. You really have a gift for designing truly beautiful looking scapes.

[@TylaH01]

I enjoyed this update so much! Thank you MD! I’ve learnt so much from you already I’m going to help my best friend out with her tank on Tuesday! She’s got issues with algae & fish waste constantly cleaning and doing water changes every week (she doesn’t have any substrate, just pebbles & fake silk plants) but with the help of your videos we will sort it out! I’ve made a list of exactly what we need to help her tank out from binge watching ur videos & I’m very excited! 😆

[@worldchanger123]

I swear everytime I finish a tank I look around my condo and think yep. That was it the last one I needed. The MD drops a video like this and I'm like well there's probably a cool tank on Facebook marketplace for free let me look lol. 😂😂

[@worldchanger123]

Fr tho always loved fish tanks but ur videos has saved a lot of fishy lives and turned it from an eyesore to something my girlfriend thinks is pretty in the house. We even have a turtle now. Ur vids rock man

[@kibawhitefang7176]

That bowl is of the most beautiful things I’ve seen you made on that video. I wonder what kind of paper thing you use for the cover on the background of the fish tanks. Sometimes you use black or white.

[@karlidomingo]

Lol “tune in” 😂 I’ll be there. I’ve been bingeing all your videos, you’re great. Super inspiring scapes😁

[@seancoffey6982]

This is awesome i was actually feeling like asking for a studio update a few videos ago, nice to see how each tank is progressing 👌

[@Whathowwhenforwhomwhatpurpose]

A heater to the struggeling Betta, in his hospital tank? Just bc he's ill? Give it a try, if he likes it he'll be very happy and heal quicker. All your tanks looks smashing, thank you for showing us.

[@fishtroverts]

Thanks for taking the time to show everything! This new space looks amazing!

[@CrazyAquariumGuy]

Awesome. I use plants as cover. Works the same. But we all now you could do a planted scape, so go with rocks! 😊 Malawi rarely get bloat. Never happened for me in 20 years. Lake T! With Tropheus and stuff are super sensitive to bloat. Amazingly that yiu are where you are. So well deserved. Thanks Mate 🍻 !

[@assiahinarkansas]

Love this. Thanks MD. Great tour! Getting all my tanks and ponds ready for me being away for a week for my day job. I know you relate. Again, really appreciated you taking time to talk to me in Dallas.

[@areacode911]

Daughter is adorable!🥰

[@11SWorsham]

Have you ever done a video showing your process for trimming the plants and maintaining the tanks? How much time do you spend on maintenance across your whole studio?

[@sethdaniel9194]

Keep up the once a month tour!! I love this series 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@northerners2828]

Super nice set up, they call it stress reliever if you only watching that aquarium in 30 mins.

[@sethdaniel9194]

The cobalt blues would be a great addition to that tank! Great idea 👍🏼

[@mongguppiesandendlers]

You had me hooked on your videos since the first one i saw about a year ago. I love your style of fish keeping, the way you do your tanks, everything. I have learned so much from your videos and yours are the first ones i look for when i open up youtube!

[@DjCalliber]

I’ve never even successfully kept fish alive in anything.. but this for some reason cures my anxiety 🙏🏻

[@lizzyanthus1]

Shop updates are always a pleasure to watch. Thanks MD, for doing them. There's such a variety of fish, and I wish I could go shopping at your place! LOL

[@yashtapase3821]

12:47 Hey md I found your bristlenose look at your pointed finger! Lol Cleaning you wood pleco things 🤣

[@annie2366]

i love the blackwater tanks! a light colored (gold or white) betta would look awesome in your red tank with your tetras.

[@oztekofficial8150]

I think the tank that your going to break down is the nicest I love the dense forest look it’s stunning

[@Amanda-uc5jq]

😂😂I just finished watching Matt’s video and was about to turn off KZbin then I spotted this 😁

[@MrVovansim]

That's how they get ya ;)

[@Amanda-uc5jq]

@@MrVovansimI know, 🤣 I’ve been watching MD for years and only used to check KZbin to see if had posted a new video, now it’s Matt as well, will probably be Martin next 😂😂

[@Lovely-rm8np]

I can watch Timmy all day 😊

[@goodbyepluto]

Looks awesome MD!

[@aaronroberts3419]

You are the god in our home and love your vids MD. You have inspired us in so many ways. We have 7 Discus tanks 4 are planted and it was all inspired by you 🙏 let the hurt be your hunger for knowledge 👌 you have a big audience here in Australia 🤙

[@Hazel-Hill]

Beautiful tanks. My favorite is that black molly/swordtail tank. So pretty.

[@debdecarlo-akins5385]

So beautiful, M.D.! Your enjoyment of all of your fish friends and Timmy! Is contagious! Thanks for another inspirational update! Love your channel! Mad respect from California! P.s. always love seeing Kate and the kids!

[@MKM070]

Beautiful studio ! I'd love to see some more 60cm tanks

[@dr-k1667]

WOW!! Great work MD!

[@cherellethinks]

Love your tanks! I’m very new to this but I’ve already learned so much from your channel!

[@pfdavidz]

Love all the tanks. Thanks for the video!

[@patriciarangel9915]

Everything looks great! Thank you for sharing♥️😆🙏🏽🥰

[@thenamesfrog85]

Legend MD love the videos helped with my aquascaping skill

[@PlanetPerspective-world]

Been binge watching your videos and have learned a lot. Encouraged me to get back into aquariums after many years. My wife wasn't thrilled but now after seeing some of your vids she is really getting into it also. Good work 😂

[@grumpybackpacker4558]

Loved the female betta tank, so much of everything, so much life and I think this what is about, promote life in the underwater world, thanks for your showcase, just amazing man great job. Thanks.

[@michaelmitchell5909]

Your tanks are absolutely stunning....

[@SwiftKing1]

You are the reason I have Boesemani rainbows. Fav Fish :0 Its time for a shark tank. Red tail black sharks , balas, and barbs would be cool to see you scape!!!

[@tienkwaiho6868]

Hey bro, Amazing & Great job, I love it very much ❤❤❤😊😊😊

[@Itssam89]

It's a Saturday, but feels like a Sunday. The weather crap, MD drops a video. Sorted.

[@o982i]

all these great looking tanks with nice colored fishes 🙂

[@vasomamatsiou1123]

Id love to see you do something with African dwarf frogs they are adorable and very interesting to look at

[@jayzha07]

amazing you got me into getting a tropical fish tank of my own, im currently doing a superfish home 85 build and gonna copy your one you set up.

[@LizPurnell99]

Great looking studio. You've really come a long way, I just can't believe Gracie! I remember when she was a little baby in her high chair 😭

[@jasonmillwood2893]

More is more!!

[@jenningabout247]

Thanks for the update, will be so good to see Discus back in the studio. Question: do you still have your goldfish, haven’t seen them in any of your videos in a while.

[@theaquascapecorner]

I was wondering the same thing!

[@MDFishTanks]

All of the ranchus died. Exactly the same as my last lot. This time, I made sure to feed them blood worms, duckweed and sinking pellets and they all got buoyancy issues and faded away. Not at the same time but over a few months. Never again. There were zero nitrates in the tank or anything else so I know I did everything right. Just one of those fish. I gave it another shot but that's it now.

[@jenningabout247]

@@MDFishTanks sorry to hear that MD. At least you know it’s the way the fish are breed and nothing you did. As is evidence by how healthy your other fish are.

[@MrVovansim]

​@@MDFishTanksoof, that's rough. But thanks for the update. We all know you're very knowledgeable and conscientious about keeping animals, so when a tank or species doesn't work out, it's not for the lack of trying.

[@ezstreet1997]

@@MDFishTanks Would love to see you do a video about this. Shows the reality of fishkeeping isnt always glamorous and that the breeding of certain fish should be thought about differently.

[@billmeyer4773]

Thanks for sharing

[@fishandfloral]

My EBA are 5 inch chunks. I love the setup for yours.

[@patrickmason9631]

Loved the feature of the Stella ❤

[@silentgrove7670]

Love your channel. I wish I had a friend like you

It still amazes me after all these years of watching you how this is achieved without CO2 :D what's in this UK water mate?? Haha

[@charlesnickoafuang799]

love ur content dude

[@yashankit1499]

Beautiful as always 👌👌👌

[@cherylbeswick7327]

Incredible ❤

[@Bahrena]

Love every video 😊 if you sir have a chance, can you review the black ghost knife fish and maybe set up a tank for this fish, because i think it's a very cool fish

[@oscarrolander3217]

As always, great content! And as always, very fun to watch your progress! Wishful thinking about a tank full of aponogeton or barclaya longifolia or giant crypts or large red brazilian swords 😁. Waiting patiently for the next viedo 😊

[@delarue3198]

A little rocky cave system would be cool in new tank!

[@chloemyler]

MD! I’m such a fan! You’ve really inspired a lot of my tank designs and I really enjoy the hobby so much more because of you!! I love all of your shrimp and betta content 😊 how about a barbie themed scape for the new movie! 😂

[@ryanlewis2260]

those are ruby tetras in the bowl there mate, very similar to embers but theyre smaller and have a marking on their tail

[@mike_lowndes]

The cube is simlar to my Dennerle cube and I love the clown killifish I have in it. I have the same fluffy algae problem too though.

[@pieterboersma5518]

Your strong point is the aquariums without Co2 👍

[@Shakodancer16]

Gracie is such a daddy's girl and I love it 🥰

[@pamlacey136]

Great video. I hope the Beta makes a full recovery.😊

[@hfz_3062]

Bruhhhhhh... i got quite the scare when the scene changed and suddenly there was a child standing still at the back holding a stuffed toy... was not expecting that.. there goes my sleep tonight 😂😂

[@nightingale4632]

Nooo I don't wanna say goodbye to the Betta tank. I love seeing all those fish :(

[@camronlyon5726]

You play a pretty big part in why i got my first aquarium and im loving it, however i went with Saltwater and i hope someday to see you give a nano reef tank a try :)

[@AbdulharamGupta]

I got here 40 seconds after upload lol. Hi MD, I love your content, can we get an update on the goldfish?

[@gregmellor3012]

A tank with Ornate Climbing Perch would be cool! If only you know somewhere that’s just got some in….

[@ZENEKM0]

Praise the Lord 😊 MD decided to make a discus tank 😊 looking forward to the video 😊

[@dawnt6791]

MD, I'm totally with you on the simple on/off of a light. I have ZERO interest in apps where you have to fiddle with colors and all of lighting. I just want a light that comes on with natural sunlight spectrum and be done with it. I have all my lights (simple on/off) on Kasa timers and don't have to fiddle with them at all. I've loved the results. BTW, I agree with you about that one type of light making plants look artificial. The green always looks weird to me in that tank, like the plants are that weird shade of green plastic.

[@JhunDumsTVXj]

wow amazing beautiful

[@dh4923]

rainbow peninsula FTW!

[@stuartreed37]

I love how you keep up with these updates, a lot of channels could honestly take notes we want all the news on every tank 😂

[@PredictableEnigma]

Yeah. New tanks are cool and all but I like seeing them mature

[@dezrigby6649]

Love all your content MD but please do a salt water aquarium, scape it with corals maybe, I'm sure it'd look cool and great for these tour videos to see how it evolves 🐟🐠🐙

[@jasoncarty2175]

Hi MD,the baby rainbows will almost definitely be hybrids,not really what you want mate👍

[@De_Klapperkoning]

Md, Rocket killifish also only live for a year or so. in the wild they only live 1 rainy season so in our tanks they can double or tripple that, which is still only a year or so.. my oldest was 1y and 3 months.. a male wih a super long beautiful tail!

[@themarkedman72]

Monthly updates=best idea. Cause I dont want the tanks continually pulled down. I grow attached to the fish and want to see them grow up and get older. keep them coming. I would like to see a monthly video of each of the bigs tanks seprately and all the little ones together, personally. BTW: whens the 6footer coming for your mbuna? That is not going to be a big enough tank imo. GO BIG, Matt!!

[@stevecooper6653]
