👇👇MD MERCH CLICK HERE👇👇: FULL SHOP: md-fish-tanks.creator-spring.com This tank turned out amazing!!!! Thanks a lot to @FishShopMatt for helping me out and having so much fun over the days we did it. You can't beat a big group of Tera fish in a good sized tank. A planted aquarium like this will only get better and better as it matures as well.

You know its gonna be insane when you see Matt in the thumbnail

i love when you and matt are in videos together, i have a video idea for your shrimp rack, you should set a budget and both do a shrimp tank and see how different they come out, side by side, the choices would be great to see from both of you!!

Everyone needs a friend like Matt 😊 Tank is looking really great with the livestock 😮

You two have some serious aquascaping skills. Almost to max level at this point I bet!

I can't talk for anyone else, but I enjoy when you talk through the next steps instead of just doing a bunch of cuts. Gives each build its own identity as its being built.

Hi MD, Hi Matt! The tank is beautiful and will always be very active! I would like to thank you for giving us the longer viewing time at the end of the video! I love 💕 watching the fish interact with the new environment you just created for them! Someone commented a suggestion for a video for you and Matt and I absolutely loved the idea! It was for you to come up with a budget and do a side by side build off! See which one comes out better! Maybe the viewers can vote! Any way, great job, warmest regards to your wife and family! 😊. Fran

Comment of the video "Yeah, Cockatoo's, we hold them under the water until they evolve" 😂😂😂😂

You two are pure entertainment gold! Thanks for making food chopping and clothes folding so much more pleasant!

I do love when you guys get together and set up tanks. Very entertaining, especially after lunch..just kidding, guys. LOL! This tank came out so beautifully, with all the gorgeous plants, and choice of fish 🐠 🐠. Just loving it! Thank you MD and Matt, for doing another awesome video together! I love all your videos MD. You set up exactly the kind of tanks I would love to have. Thank you again, MD, and thank you Matt, for joining in for another one. Have a great day guys, or night, whichever.

I was asked at work the other day “if you could travel anywhere in the world where would you go?” .. I immediately replied, wherever it is that MD fish and Fish Shop Matt live so I can visit their store and studio …Lol

I love the red root floaters in this tank, gives a nice contrast to the green in the tank. Beautiful!

sometimes you're like an old married couple and it's adorable

Love love LOVE this set up! I absolutely am obsessed with the tried & true tetras you got as well as the more exotic tetras! I cannot wait to see them grow & thrive under your care. So many favorites in that tank. Enjoy!

I like the way the red stems look through all the green. It's like a secret garden.

matt: what tetras do you want? MD: yes

I enjoy it when you and Matt work together because it seems like you both have fun building a beautiful aquascape.

The final part where MD shows his tanks is ambiently presentable.... Just makes my mind so calm ❤

the letter from mitch was so cute (i would’ve cried too 😅)

one hour video of MD fish with Matt. a dream came true. thank you for this amazing moment ! i love the journey and the result ! i love to see your channel evolution ! and i love seeing you staying true to who you are ! great guys, great channel, great video !

I absolutely LOVE the interactions between you and Matt. Y’all make me laugh indefinitely while simultaneously creating beautiful, inspiring tanks. Been subscribed for the past year now and currently cannot WAIT for new uploads. Cheers Mate 🤙🏼

Love love LOVE when you guys come together and scape a tank.

Your new studio is so gorgeous. When we get these nice wide shots of it, I am always just floored how beautiful a place it is.

Amazing video as always MD. I find it so calming watching these videos as well as entertaining with your banter. I would love to see some videos with very specific type builds like a river bank with a big wall of rock and plants growing out or like an arch of wood or things like that

They look at each other so lovingly! It's so cute! 🥰

Such an amazing build. The scape and all those tetras are eye/brain candy. Loving all the "bts", feels like we're hanging out with you boys. At least this time you could walk after lunch! Cheers!

'We need a rock... DWAYNE'😂😂, love the vids with you two together. Beautiful build ❤ A great watch.

Such an awesome tank! Amazing set up and hope to see more videos with you and matt together 🙏

MD & Matt + 1 hour! Yes!!! KZfaq Gold!

Very cool scape, love the density of fish. That scape by George is incredible

Another great video! Always great when Matt is helping!

I just discovered this channel today and I've watched quite a few videos. Matt is just awesome. The dynamic between you two is fun to watch. He should be involved in every video.

Bruh love when you guys build a tank together always looks amazing can't wait to see what you build next

Great job MD, An all tetra tank is what I always love 💚🙌

I love it when you open boxes of plants. You don't know how good you have it. Here in USA you get about 1/2 that amount in each bunch and half of them look like crap so end up throwing away another 1/4 in dead stems and leaves

Now that tank is a LOOKER! Matt did a superb job selecting the fish.

I wasn't going to watch this because I've never been a huge fan of tetras. But I really enjoyed seeing all the different types you added and they all look great together. One of my favourite tank builds.

You two together are a blast, incredible tank.

Another amazing tank, I enjoy seeing the fish swimming though the red root floaters, I am glad you kept them in. I wish I was a fish I would happily live in that tank.

Love the video. Really love have you keep it all real with what you do. You keep all the good stuff in the videos, like if you say something wrong, or drop something, or whatever, you just keep it going and laugh about it. I absolutely love it, because it's real and not totally edited. Matt always is a pleasure to see in the videos with you as well, so much fun when you two are together. Genuine videos are the best ones. Keep them coming and always look forward to the next one!

I had a cichlid in a 55 gallon tank who passed after about 10 years. This video is great inspiration to a planted tank, which I am starting with the plants fist. Eventually hope to have some tetras, nostalgic for the ones I had as a kid. RIP Ahnold the cichlid

Prongy, upright, and sort of leaning out 😅 Another beautiful build, my man!! Wonderful stuff 👏

Another beautiful tank, MD! You make it look so easy! Maybe some time you can make a video about how you care for these tanks? How often do you feed and do tank maintenance? I love how heavily you can stock these tanks because they’re so heavily planted!

Gorgeous set up! And always fun when you and Matt get together 😂😂😂

Loved the extra long cinematic! Thank you for that!

Absolutely gorgeous. I love when you and Matt are in videos together and I loveeee the long videos. You keep it interesting the entire video!

When I see how good Matts shop is it genuinely causes me pain. My local Maidenhead is quite good but this is like next level and I'm so jealous of having that standard of shop on your doorstep.

I love Golden Tetras! I got a group of them five years ago, and a few of them are still around, mixing with others. Mine are still a little shy, even after all the time, so I think a big group (or other companions) is important. They are "second glance" fish: not prominent at first, but very beautiful the longer you look at them.

A really beauty of a showtank. Great video as well - love the long running time. So much to enjoy. A real nice riverbank look with a grown in jungle behind. Nice fish selection too. Understated and beautiful.

I so wish we had you guys here! I LOVE everything you guys do, and you get fish I've never seen before!

Love the MD and Matt vids. Love tetras too. I've got neons, glowlights, and black phantoms. Whenever one of your videos is 1hr+ I'm extra happy 😊

Great video as usual. Keep doing these low tech setups as it's such an inspiration. Also, including little graphics of the plant names really helps too.

Another incredible scape. Your absolutely putting this new studio to some amazing use. Everything in it so far has been outstanding.

Yes yes yes another brilliant MD and fishshop Matt build video you love to see it

I am so entertained watching you two!; laughing at your antics while gaining knowledge. Keep doing what you do!!!

My favorite fish tank! Permanently! All that is missing is a pair of German Rams (native variant)... I wanted to see this in Matt's home aquarium... Well, he did it here, thank you Matt! Now, let it marinate!

Absolutely love the natural style

Great job MD 😍 I'm waiting for you to make an archerfish paludarium😊 Your studio needs this Paludarium ❤

What an enjoyable video! Honestly, I didn't realize it was an hour long until after I finished watching it. It was so much fun. Terrific mix of tetras, and the scape is really outstanding. This has given me some excellent ideas for rescaping one of my tanks. I love that you've subbed to that little kid's channel who left fan mail for you at Matt's shop. I will have to follow suit and sub them as well.

Great video! I couldn't visualize your plan, then when it was done... it was amazing as usual!

This tank is dope! You have sick talent MD!

You guys are making me want to totally re-scape my 55g (currently Tanganyika / shell-dwellers) into a tetra / nano jungle ... trying to resist the impulse by building a handful of tiny tanks instead Thanks for sharing what you do!

This tank is so beautiful!

Absolutely brilliant, was captivated for the full hour!

I fell in love with tetras recently and I kid you not I had the same idea to do a tank with many different kinds of tetras. I was so happy to see this video for that reason. I can’t actually get another tank for a few years so I am just vicariously living through this video. Amazing. (Of course, I would have had some embers in my dream tank because they’re my favorite, but I understand that they’re pretty small, so not suitable with the angels, not judging, I think it’s amazing still).

Love this tank!! It's up there with the blackwater discus one y'all did in Matt's shop

Wow 🎉 love your work guys!

Love tetras. Love this tank. You have done so many wonderful tanks but this is at the top of the list right below the Red tank. This makes me want a bigger tank. I’m hoping you will put together a long cinematic transitioning from tank to tank showing each species of fish about its business in its environment, giving enough time to really observe the fish in their habitat. I had no idea red eyes schooled at the surface like that or maybe they were comfortable under the floating plants.

This is what I think of when I think of a planted tank. So good

As usual, awesome aqua scape. Thanks for the video!

just so you know I love you explaining what you are about to do and then watching how you do it. so please don't stop that. (:

For the record, your videos are amazing! Keep it up!

Yes, I love it when you get fish you haven't gotten before

I always enjoy all the tank setups keep up the great work ❤❤❤❤❤

Absolutely loving this channel

I'm so jealous of the quality of plants u guys overseas can get. Aquafleur, ADA, Dennerle or Tropica, there's literally nowhere in America where u can purchase aquatic plants of that quality. Everything here from BucePlants to APF deliver pathetically spindly, spotted, brown & half holey leafed plants to ur door that take weeks to recover... if u have the experience to recover them. I wish so much that one of the European Co's would start a warehouse over here to ship to American buyers. They could double their business overnight.

Very nice scape & fish choice 👌🏼

Beauty -- cant wait for an update video!

Looks amazing, love you guys. ❤️

I love your chanel, amazing work. BUT. what I prefer in this video is definitely the complicity you got with your mate, you seem to have lots of fun joking around while sharing your passion !it's heart warming :D

"Fern bouquet" love it 😅 Looks amazing 💚

These videos are a therapy for my depression. Ty

1:00:29 I was startled, I had the volume on max :) btw. beautiful aquarium

Stunning tank! I’d sit & watch that all day!

Those Slate Corys are absolutely gorgeous!

Love this one such a selection of pretty fish

Love the new studio and tanks you are doing. Really should use 4or 5ft tank and bring back the electric blue acaras and Columbia tetras. Was my favourite tank from old studio. Also with some rams and try the keep All the plants South American to if possible would be interesting

The behavior of the red eyes is so beautyfull to watch :)

Hey MD & Matt - absolutely love this tank! I started keeping fish myself about a year ago, learning from your videos, I'm only in an apartment so it's all Nano tanks but I love seeing yours. I have a planted tank with some Crypts that have gone wild, the leaves are almost popping out the top and its 2ft high. Would love to see you do a tank that focuses on the leopard spotted Danios - always thought they'd be beautiful in a big group.

Love the banter, bois!

“I find the fine stuff grips plants better” “Yeah, they’ve got better hands” LOL

I like the different mixed fish aquarium setups

Beautiful tank, I'm inspired.

Fun to see you select and set it up. It would also be cool to just to leave the camera running close to tank while they acclimate to see how they interact with one another and adjust to their new digs. IMO that part's even more fascinating than seeing it built. Well done :)

Yaaay!! You picked one of my favourite fish! Gold tetras

Simply amazing great build

I know this is probably said all of the time but I love you and fishshopmatt's friendship so much!

Stunning

Oooo, idea a beginner budget aquascape challenge let your members vote on a budget and you build the best tank you can including tank, plants and stocking. And give matt the same budget and do a little comp between you both and you guys decide what the winner wins

Great tank again.. Beautiful
