I've had the Angelfish Aquarium planned for a while but wanted to wait until the Ecosystem Aquarium was a year old. It's proved it's success, I've learnt tons and it's now time to move on :)...So here come the Angels!!! A more simplistic sccape this time to ensure that the fish are very visible and the stars of the show. I love how it turned out and I hope you like it too 😊

[@graffic13]

20 more cardinals would be even better

[@SelfDescribed]

I bet those kuhli loaches helped prevent old tank syndrome in the previous setup by regularly stirring up your substrate.

[@milesnapue]

One of the Rummy Nose seemed to float and bang off the side glass behind your head, might be good to check the back right corner if you possibly did have one casualty. 34:10

[@mattphilip4595]

Can you do a budget setup and plot it's progress over a year. Like £100 - £200 to get everything you need. Start with a few plants that you can take cuttings from to grow into a full planted tank. A 25L tank would be a good size.

[@_KingQuinn_]

I must say, minutes with Matt explaining history, breed, care instructions and sizes full grown, about fish is becoming one of my favorite parts on your amazing scapes

[@philcarlino6942]

This truly came out stunningly well. Very nice setup, MD. Those blue angels are in my top 3, I love the blues, and they shimmer like diamonds like you said. Can't wait to see them grow up. Take care

[@feathereddoggo7891]

Indeed these are 2/ 3 of my top 3 fish I didn't know you could get away with putting angels and tetras together but it makes sence if you get em small together they can't eat em this is so beautiful

[@DylanFH15]

Yessss can't wait for these guys to get big and breed!!

[@PULAG]

Fish bangin yeah!!!!

[@carolebraswell982]

This build turned out spectacular, and there's something soothing about this tank... I could watch it for hours.

[@MDFishTanks]

So glad you like it carole

[@dr-k1667]

MD this is stunning. It's a very contemporary designed tank which looks amazing for the Angels to swim in and grow. Your selection of tank mates for the Angels is great and the end result is another winner.

[@shawna3457]

This is one of my favorite tanks. I love how open and clean it looks. As the plants fill in, it’s going to look even better. Sometimes, simple and light actually looks better. Especially when you have busy quick moving fish.

[@firestick4991]

We had a bunch of huge tanks at one point. Even a small pond in the living room! Now, we’re just down to two, tiny little ones. One square with a few snails and some aquatic grass. Another moss tank. I miss it. Watching this, I live vicariously through you!

[@oscarwright5042]

Love ur stuff man, been watching for a while now and have learnt so much now. I was getting out of fish and the whole under water world but when ur video popped up in my feed u brought it all back for me bc u showed me a different way of fish keeping and how to do different things So keep up the great work and can't wait for where u go into the future 👍🏿

[@rudijamalludin658]

Huu

[@SierraJenson4]

This definitely shows off the fish more than the natural scape. This tank is more featuring the fish which I love

[@patriciacrumrine5890]

Angels have never been my favorite but your scape and enthusiasm really made a difference. They are beautiful. Good job.

[@prodbyhydrax]

Aw man! I loved that ecosystem tank. New build looks amazing as always though :)

[@nancypatterson374]

Beautiful tank, love the Angels. Your tanks are so realistic, the fish are living the good life.

[@LeilaSoleil]

Ohhh the cinematic part....37:00 - 38:00... so beautiful it could make me cry. Beautiful tank M.D. Really.

[@JK-tz8de]

This tank is amazing!! And thank you for ALL your videos. I used to be just a gravel and plastic decor kind of guy but, because of all the gorgeous tank you have put together. I’ve learned a ton of info and found that live plants and beautiful hard scales are not difficult at all. You have definitely kept my interest and advanced my skill in my aquariums. Thank You. And again, this tank is gorgeous.

[@haitch04]

40 minutes of intense excitement! Thoroughly enjoyed every minute. Thank you.

[@PULAG]

I watched it at .75x so I got even more than 40 minutos out of it, pro tip

[@feefifofum04]

Great build. I really enjoy the negative space in this one.

[@elizabethgiles2158]

I'm stoked for the angels again😍😍😍

[@Acljd2326]

Youre the reason i actually did my first scape this month. Love your content and passion. Truly beautiful work

[@geekreap9587]

Beautiful setup! Can't wait to see the angels grow.

[@andreagalda28]

Perfect music for that beautiful ending. I could watch this tank all day and feel my blood pressure coming down. So relaxing 😌

[@SamPonjican]

Absolutely love it. There’s nothing like the classic fishkeeping Trinity! Can’t wait to see these guys grow up and the tank grows in.

[@JcRosas86]

Every tank you do always blows my mind away. You get a vision and you nail it every time! Your videos have come along way MD! Can’t wait to see your next build

[@awanna3203]

Beautiful scape.. Loving this one. Looking forward to watching them grow xx

[@fjkhamdan]

Beautiful tank and done with taste 😍 Great job MD as always. Keep inspiring 🙂

[@leespencer6922]

OMG that cinematic at the end was gorgeous, easily the best you have done so far, love it.

[@PULAG]

Yea not to brag too much, just enough to give my ego a bubble bath, but I did ALL editing on this one.

[@wendihamlett105]

Love your scapes. The Frosted backgrounds that you do convinced me to do one. I just did a 40 breeder with a frosted background and LOVE it. Thank you!

[@shaunjones3507]

MD i think it would be really cool if you invited Matt to your studio and gave him a tour!!

[@jackokeefe3501]

I watch all your videos, they are so therapeutic and incredible I even went back and watched from your first video ever loaded up and worked my way forward. BY FAR THE BEST AQUARIUM/AQUATIC KZbinR OUT!!!!!💯💯😁

[@mitchfollis3939]

My morning is complete! Getting my video on before hitting up my lfs

[@pokerusfreak8194]

looks amazing, love the composition of your hardscape

[@bradenguilinger9509]

That is one of my favorite tanks you have done! Great job! Thank You!

[@casparwelting9740]

Wow! From my point of view, this is the most gorgeous scape you’ve made up and until now🐟🔥

[@s_u_b_z_e_r_0896]

All of MD Tank are amazing!!!!! Just relaxing an heavenly, Can’t wait to see this tank mature in an take flight 💯

[@maureenk-farmhousecharms903]

Awesome build and am so glad you resisted planting anything in that center area!! It’s a perfect open area for showcasing the beautiful Angels! And other fish swimming through that area. Love this build!!! ♥️

[@twunderaquatics1770]

just when I don't think it can get any better you prove me wrong!!! you are on fire 🔥 😊😂❤

[@Pedofifty1]

Amazing video as always. Loved that relaxing end with the music

[@chaddavid1528]

You've Never Ceased To Amaze Me. Awesomeness Always. Stay Safe And Stay Blessed. Hi Doodle 😉

[@apss5736]

always happy for an md vid

[@diablorojas6713]

I really love this scape I have watched your previous videos and I love the media bag idea especially with how clean and fresh this look to prevent the aqua soil from coming thru but yeah I love this nice one MD

[@leeshareddy4062]

Amazing.utterly awesome I love the naturalistic look and the empty space Good work mate

[@rickjack78]

This is my next project. Dad had an aquarium growing up, and the upkeep was such a hassle. But, a balanced ecosystem is a stunner.

[@ayeshanajam773]

The plants are so beautiful. They make everything better. Plus the branch twirling❤❤❤

[@alanaballoon5661]

been waiting for this!

[@njanja8100]

You definitely have an artist's eye. I really like the arrangements you make.

[@stoneysscapes7544]

Thank you MD , Another really incredible scape !! My absolute favorite of them all , so natural w/ just enough flow where your plants are concerned & the Angels can glide around their new home . This is all about showcasing the fish and great job on how you placed your stones , it looks amazing and IMO one of the hardest part to get right & you nailed it. Good to have a few Angels around to liven up the Studio & the great mini schools of Tetras is as good as it gets !!! A tank that Takashi would have in his home no doubt about it 💙💚

[@jillphelps8683]

I’m so glad you got angelfish again! They are so beautiful!

[@grantsh0e]

Love seeing these large builds with larger fish now!

[@WildWarriorPlays]

Let's gooo just what I needed

[@LassoKid7777]

It's amazing the plants know where the water is sending out feeler roots even if it's completely detached ,amazing

[@unitss4140]

AWESOME BUILD, ONE AGAIN!!

[@noah_mennell4046]

This, this is truly beautiful! Good Work MD

[@diablorojas6713]

Love this scape so vibrant probably my 2nd favourite behind the rare eco

[@amandabyrd9349]

Beautiful scape! And those baby rays are adorable!

[@faraamset9656]

Absolutely lovely tank man, cant wait to make my own large aquarium some day!

[@sunmoon-84]

Cichlids are awesome. So many to choose from, love this build and fish choice.

[@butler-devers3301]

Thank you from across the pond. I love Angles and Tetras. With this video I'm planning my first aquarium in 26 years! I'll start small, with a 20 gallon tank.

[@SomersetUpNorth]

amazing scape as always, a small school of geophagus tapajos (orange head earth eaters) would go awesome in there with the angles and tetra a propper classic yet some how modern looking aquairum

[@MDFishTanks]

I do love them but I think I want to do a tank for them on their own one day in the future.

[@cheesehead4670]

I’ve got a blue that we think is a mix because he doesn’t have those distinctive stripes, only above his eye, and he’s BEAUTIFUL! I love him so much. ☺️

[@davidseverum]

Love the clean setup, one of my favorite tanks

[@KentAJDK]

Great looking tank, MD. Yesterday I was revisiting you Fallen Tree tank from the shed. I liked it, again. It is great to see you make great tanks with Matt. But you are still and also great on build like this, slow and education. Keep doing them both. 😊

[@itsMalma]

its adorable watching him try to keep it together in front of you xD adorable im invested now

[@johnpatterson9219]

This is absolutely stunning!

[@tinasweeney4392]

Nice! Thank you so much for taking me with when you went to the fish store! I haven't been in such a long time I'm growing a lil weary!! 🐠

[@andywrollo2915]

Fantastic video. Beautiful creation. Love the rocks wood plants and sand. Visit to shop was great as well. Beautiful fish 👍👍

[@fredgandolfi2356]

[@adammajor123]

Very nice looking tank!

[@victoriagilarranz6804]

So excited for this! My 4ft is also stocked with blue pinoy angels, plus a school of x-ray tetras and some emerald corydoras. My pride and joy of all my tanks.

[@ManyfacedGod94]

So informative and soul soothing ❤️

[@Mwhbmnabjms]

Very very strong start!

[@abdulazizbokhari6695]

Finally Angelfish 😍🔥👌🏻

[@Ted038]

Not the first time, actually 😉

[@vesawuoristo4162]

Marvelous

[@mexicalifishkeeper]

This video is going to be my inspiration to setup the 150 gallon tank I'm working on.

[@tetraguytx1705]

I love having a big display tank: more plants, more fish. But you're right about tidying up as you go when resetting it. Otherwise, you end up with a big mess and stuff everywhere. It can even be a little risky; I once twisted my ankle because I got so much water on the floor.
