[@graffic13]

I guess I was expecting Matt to live in a proper cottage with a wispy garden 🤣🤣 And garden gnomes🤣 An african dwarf lily on each side in the back would really make this pop.... one planred directly in each corner.😁 I know it's " rare tetra" but 15 or so of those black serpae tetras would really pop in this too .. I think they call them black phantom tertas..tetras... there are some that have been line bred to have darker longer fins and more blue... juatca though..Cheers!

[@LeilaSoleil]

He's right, you know. You are a bit more "planty, scapey" and he is more "fishy." ;) You've both got to be the most brilliant idiots I've ever seen! 🤣

[@millie-mayprice891]

i would absolutely watch an amazon series with you two in it. the bromance is highly entertaining and very wholesome 😊

[@MDFishTanks]

Seriously looking into the booking. It won't be cheap but as a once in a lifetime thing that we can document and share with you guys, I think it will be so worth it. Plus if it's vlogged, we will have it forever!!

[@delarue3198]

@@MDFishTanks Omg yes go in MD!!! That would be amazing! The new area of keeping no hassle fish tanks 😂love the longer vids!

[@julzhunterq]

Would love that hope you guys get to do it.

[@Itssam89]

Make it happen!

[@Skip2MyLouTV]

When I first read your comment I hadn't watched the video yet, and I thought you meant it in a way that Amazon, the company, would pay him to do a video series on building fish tanks and you'd watch it; as would I. Which than I thought they definitely should since the items to build the tanks can be purchased on Amazon. AMAZON ARE YOU LISTENING?!

[@mdotschrody]

This video really has everything- the best bromance in fishkeeping, an adorable baby, gorgeous Dalmatians, Matt holding the aforementioned adorable baby 😍, the possibility of a trip to the Amazon to fish up and the building of an insanely beautiful tank. Thanks for sharing!

[@stevenpavan327]

One of the best MD videos yet, agreed.

[@sharonalexander177]

Loved Matt’s Katie snickering @ them both. Congratulations on bitty baby boy❣️love the scape btw😉

[@Riddlemt]

Did you miss the glorius unit housing liquid dinner replacements to the right?

[@DabToTheFuture]

I’d love to watch you guys do an Amazon series, it could be pricey but you could ship some fish back with you and make a scape similar to where they were found. Might be unrealistic but I think would make great content. Keep it up MD!

[@garethjones7182]

MD has over 750k subscribers, if we all put in a bit they could make it happen...

[@ladydiane6839]

Katie is such a trooper for allowing us all into their home for this build 💕 The vibe was so warm, cozy, inviting, I love your home, the pond, the Dals! Quinn is a mini Matt, adorable 💕 Another awesome build, Bros.... you work so well together, love you all!

[@garblin9805]

I love this scape. It looks amazing with the different types of tetra, and the lack of stems really makes it feel like a river bed you’d find in the amazon. Great video

[@tobyroberts6571]

Matt seems like a really genuine and nice guy. Happy for him starting his family and hope to continue to see more of him ☺️

[@stevenpavan327]

MD & Fish Shop Matt together is KZbin Gold. The two of you together is sitcom worthy comedy and documentary worthy information. Brilliant the two of you together.

[@rachelschildman2327]

I am voting HELL YES to the Amazon series with you two! Love the tank, and the fish are super interesting! Also the Dalmatians were adorable 🥰

[@oretho6406]

Just an idea: what about a weekly, or monthly stream: Pub Talk with Matt and MD, just chatting about the hobby and maybe answering questions? The energy of both of you together is just so entertaining, and I'm learning alot about the hobby. Keep up the good work! ;)

[@gavinstatikgoddard4340]

I love the journey how you guys have gone from customer/seller to bessie mates. The comradeship, the friendship and the bond is real and is such a joy to watch in your videos

[@aquaracer65]

You two working together works really well. The aesthetic feel for design by MD combined with Matt pushing to keep it natural has resulted in three stunning tanks already; the African tank, the Amazon discus tank and now this one. Keep it up guys. One tip: maybe nice to also mention the scientific names of the fish which should be interesting for the more serious fish keeper.

[@anthonycarbone3826]

A name is a name is a name. The name is just made up in the end and that is why many fish have several different names from different parts of the world.

[@faheemashraf9716]

MD would you ever enter a tank in the Iaplc. Your work is amazing 👏. You got me into the hobby almost 2 and a half years ago. Thank you so much for introducing aquascaping to me

[@MDFishTanks]

It's not really my thing buddy. I like more rough and natural look with low tech. That isnt really what the comp seems to be about. Love the scape in the contest, just not something I'd be interested in doing.

[@AquariumAficionado]

@@MDFishTanks truly thanks for the inspiration and encouragement of the natural low tech tank I went in to the the hobby buying the best of the best this and that and you prove that it’s not necessary under most circumstances Slowly but surely making my 55G more and more of an ecosystem rather than a water treatment plant😆🤙

[@naddyn685]

A comical and fun creation between you and Matt! We had it all…a baby, two crazy dogs plus playful banter. Nice work 😃

[@shuanaroden5226]

Would love to watch you both on an adventure. Beautiful baby Matt tanks not too bad either lol

[@stuartball3538]

What a epic video, what a amazing tank,I love the friendship you both have,what a way to bring two amazing fish keeper KZbinrs together

[@theaussiemachine9181]

I would love to see an Amazon vlog. Catching rare plecos and awesome rare species

[@Broderickballs]

So awesome how you guys took the ‘less is more approach’, and it absolutely did this scape justice. An inspiration for us amateurs out there.

[@gibbnasta]

The cinematic of Matt watching the tank was very nice!

[@flaviaacinaces8682]

An Amazon trip to see where some Aquariums get their stock. That would be an epic worth spectating.

[@cococalm]

Full on for the Amazon trip ..... English explorer costumes and all !!!

[@Chuar1]

Loved this skateboard tutorial! Was a bit confused about the aquariums though..

[@powerfool650]

Scapey + planty + fishy is the perfect combination! The chemistry with you two is just fun to watch!

[@joyceoosting]

Hi!!! Watching this episode again, loving it. But how about your Amazon trip????? Would be lovely to see you two wandering through the jungle and find fishies🎉

[@tylerjaax4917]

One of my favorite videos on your channel. Amazing to see the social dynamic between you two and the excitement of Matt putting together his own home tank.

[@SlickNick3]

It’s going to be awesome in a couple years when Matt’s little boy can look in the aquarium and appreciate it with him! It always makes my day when my 2 year old boy is standing at the fish tank just watching them

[@twunderaquatics1770]

Ya'll two together. Crack me up. It's good to have a hobby you can share with a bud.

[@markday5797]

Always entertaining when you get together with your buds.

[@casima]

I think this is my favourite one yet, love the river rocks and no stem plants 😍

[@piacnm]

Amazing!! Love those red spots, remind me a little about Piranhas with those bulldog mouths 😄 so beautiful fish all together 🤩 amount of plants is just right, so beautiful and interesting. Thanks for inviting us inn to your home Matt and Katie ❤️ lovely to see little Quinn also 🥰🥰 Good job you two 👏

[@anthonycarbone3826]

That is one cool tank. I was not sure about it at first but you guys hit the ball out of the park on this one.

[@pattychilds3003]

You both are so entertaining and build astonishing, beautiful tanks. From Ohio.

[@mariamatz4079]

That baby!!

[@sterling8298]

That trip is a must for you guys. You know we all wanna see it?

[@imyh]

For anyone interested, they are Pseudochalceus kyburzi, Nematobrycon lacortei, and Hemigrammus rubrostriatus.

[@omarbakir3423]

Thanks, I was looking for somebody who knows those species. I think I will get those with the red dots for my blackwater Aquarium.

[@narwhal9852]

An Amazon trip would be cool as heck

[@koaung6082]

This is the first video I watch more than 45 min . Love it both friendship and creativity . 😎

[@blakeestes9646]

Everyone would love to see an adventure podcast with you guys!!!!!!

[@AG-wf4mu]

Swimming lessons before the Amazon trip Matt!

[@Haibeovietlienkhongdau]

You know, every time your voice sounds I feel a lot of energy hehe thank you bro

[@philcarlino6942]

I love it, turned out so well! The light is very clever with the plants intertwined. Love the rare tetras. Super cool tank, I'd love to do something like this too. Thanks for taking us along for the creation process. Also, definitely would love to see you guys go on that South American adventure. Wishing you both well. Take care.

[@Mateusnm]

Greetings from Brazil! YES! Come to Amazon and bring some FISH UP t-shirts. Just don't forget to drink some caipirinha. It will make the trip even betta

[@Booseondeloose]

Oh my goodness, an Amazon trip would be AMAZING. It would be so fun to watch you both do something like that, and I know we all would love to watch you do something like that 😊

[@mitchellbakerjr2901]

I've been watching your videos for almost 2yrs now, absolutely LOVE your channel. I struggle with depression, and I can ALWAYS rely on you and Matt to bring me out of whatever funk I'm in.. I think an Amazon vlog trip with you two would be awesome to say the least!

[@rettag2020]

You two, in the Amazon 🥰 I would probably watch you 2 sitting and watching t.v. You guys can make everything entertaining 😁

[@trustjah]

Born and Raised in "Santa Carla" California so appreciate your vampire etiquette.

[@sharongraham8422]

Fish up! Yes, need it on a shirt!

[@joywestbrook6984]

Yes! Amazon trip please! Your dynamics are amazing and entertaining. The new little one might put a kink in things. Thank you both for being dedicated to your arts. It has inspired me to keep my tanks much better than I thought I would when getting into aquariums and aquascaping 7 months ago. Awesome work!

[@sambam3289]

The Amazon trip would definetly elevate the entertainment to a whole new level, it would also give you the chance to educate new hobbyists of show us the origins and environments of different fish.

[@Shakodancer16]

This was awesome. I do wish here in America we spoke with such sophistication especially whenever you say “I reckon” is my favorite

[@MsNoPixel]

I had this on 1.50x speed & the dogs were absolutely ZOOOOOMING!!

[@Grace-er9ep]

I think the MD x Fishkeeper Matt Amazon Tour would cure my depression

[@Df4ct666]

This is a work of art. If I were to decide on another aquarium, I would copy it 100%. Good job guys!

[@paulbryan1094]

Go to the Amazon, talk to Cory I’m sure he’ll give you loads of tips and advice. Would be an amazing film.

[@hamo4558]

I'm intrigued with Matt's Whisky collection !

[@carlphillips4565]

You two are like a comedy duo. Definately go to the amazon it'd be hilarious. Young plecs,lovely, til they get bigger and uproots your plants like my bristlenose has this morning

[@FishShopMatt]

I don't really need to watch this one! Hahahaha 🤣

[@MDFishTanks]

It was a lot of fun watching it back and editing it all. 🤣🤣

[@grahamlawrence6377]

Matt, I found your wood very impressive

[@jakeneidecker3573]

But did you? 😅🤣

[@tomhillier1369]

Trip to Amazon has to happennnn! Should plan an expedition for some of the subscribers to tag along and pay there way? 😅👌 I’m in if so! 👍👍 Love the content guys great duo!

[@cosminlupu87]

Matt..what is the size of the tank?...beautifull natural scape...good job

[@LKonstantina915]

Loved the scape! Matt's house is so nice and cozy too!

[@debramoon6725]

WE are loving to watch you guys woking together on anything. Yall look like yall are having SOOOO much fun while demonstrating tank builds that WE may want to try...

[@IndoorEcosystem]

Man that hardscape looks nice and natural! I wasn't sure how that mega chunk of wood was going to work! Well done!

[@rimmakh7559]

What a perfect fish tank you've created this time! I love how much space is left for the fish to enjoy. And it's just so natural how they swim around the wooden parts. The colours are very beautifully matched. Thank you for this video ! And you've got such a lovely family, Matt! It's great to meet you all, guys :)

[@GreenGaiety]

I m loving when you too agree. Matt's like,,,,,,yeah yeahhhh.

[@andrewjaipeshad3377]

I love the bromance of you and Matty! Amazing build!! Keep the amazing content coming

[@aaroncathbaytiong4779]

This was the time that I was in the shop hoping you guys are in, but missed you by half an hour.

[@LeilaSoleil]

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE this tank. May copy it a bit. Smaller scale. I am definitely not putting stem plants in my next tank. Thinking epiphytes, and a couple of potted swords. Well done, guys.

[@user-xb6vw3jg1k]

Red colour fish added so beautiful

[@Boogerboys1990]

Amazon trip sure. love it. but what i love even more is a buzzed up matt /MD tanks combo tank build. felt like i was more involved i was laughing so hard. ✌❤👊🍻 cheers mate.

[@catothom]

I've said it many times before. You Teo guys really are made to pair up on these tank builds. I honestly enjoy the videos with both of you, than each of it's own. Keep em coming!! You guys are the reason for me getting back in the hobby after 20 years if it 😁😁😁

[@davidadkins8805]

30 minutes later! Matt knocked out of the park!

[@Laurenlozza]

Yes to the Amazon adventure! Sounds like a good watch 😂

[@vitoskoding9478]

I used to keep fish over 20 years ago, I even opened up a shop in my hometown. Unfortunately due to the pressing issues of life I had to give up. Your channel has inspired me to start again! Thank you from North Borneo.

[@Deweycheatemnhowe]

Nice job guys. The red striped tetra is just a beautiful fish.

[@pedrocastel8177]

Check bolivia for your trip!!!! It would be amazing!! Rio Mamoré, rio yacuma... You will see pink dolfins, guaranteed!!

[@patriciacschmidt5982]

Matt, your aquarium will be stunning!!! I have to tell you, however, that when your dals barreled in I started crying. They are absolutely gorgeous. Both “hand painted” for sure. Dals are my favorite dogs. I cried because I never see any around anymore, and mine has been gone for years now. What memories…..my sons named ours Rogue after the super hero with black and white hair. I have had soooo many dogs over the years, Roguie was my favorite. If only they didn’t shed…well they are still worth it. Enjoy them for me, too. They look so well loved. Mine smiled so hugely sometimes people were afraid she was snarling. Ha. She never ever snarled even once. Enjoy that gorgeous tank!!! Best dog ever.

[@pattychilds3003]

I think the fish love their new home

[@scarletdamsel6032]

Definitely love the idea of an Amazon trip series! Many moons ago, I was planning on heading out to the Amazon basin, then my daughter came along, and now she's turned 20...

[@greenwarrior8971]

Amazon- amazing. Love the tank Matt congratulations 🎊 on your new tank and family addition, your beautiful baby boy ❤️

[@rachelnelson2903]

I would love to see you guys go to the Amazon!! 😍 Love when you guys film together, great energy. Matt's baby is so precious ❤️

[@seanu4963]

Two guys and their wood... all joking aside, there's alot of fish info out there. But you both do a fantastic job of informing, entertaining and inspiring. These episodes only keep getting better. Awesome scape and go to the Amazon!

[@madaboutmilitaria3630]

Ok I’ve just paused, not sure if I want to continue watching if I’m going to see Matt’s interesting wood🤣That is one of the nicest tanks I’ve ever seen. Looking forward to the Amazon series👍This bro’mance is really developing🤣

[@GreenGaiety]

Thank you for tanks shots...Matt, Katie, the baby boy and dogs will love that tank! Very well DONE!

I've watched quite a few of your videos. This is by far the best on you have done. I'm glad it is Matt's personal tank.

[@hoediesmiller6306]

i have to say, this is why i love tetra so much, they school easy and they are beautefulll

[@eatmynoobfood7461]

If I had a big tank like that then that's exactly how I would have it ✌️ I think it looks brilliant, great job chaps 👍👍

Nice picks! Love the uncommon types also. Those with the spots are very unique.

[@celsospina8011]

I am from Brazil and I do recommend a Amazon trip and please, don´t forget the explorer´s clothes. It will a crazy Jungle Cruise.

[@NicoleShalan-ue3yw]

I had to pause, to follow. Funny science men. Awesome. ✨🐢🐸🐡🐠Love all fish.

[@rewild6134]

Amazon trip. I demand this happens so I can live vicariously through you. Also, best ideas are formed at the pub.

[@marcins396]

OMG amazon series would be AMAZING !

[@morgzzzzzzzz]

Love seeing you guys together, it’s always such fun and great chemistry! I would love to see an Amazon trip, it would be really cool to be able to see some of the fish from Matt’s shop in their natural habitat! Also off topic but I’m really loving these longer videos. Even when you are messing around and having fun it’s still enjoyable and the hour flys by

[@crustysoap356]

It’s funny you bring up the trip because in the beginning of the video I was wondering why you both haven’t gone fishing for aquarium fish before. Do it! 🎉

[@johnsulit3552]

I always watch it twice one my 2 KZbin channel and i always love every aquarium set up.. John of Canada 🇨🇦
