I’m disabled and want a small tank in my large bedside table. This is stunning and I saved it for inspiration.

Who else binge watched all of md’s vids? I can not stop watching them 👍

My wife gets so mad because I freak out whenever I see a new md fishtanks video drop lmao

Love the scapes without wood for inspiration. Basically because I can’t bring myself to spend £20+ on a bit of wood 😂

Please put in the plant names in description , that would be really helpful

I just wanna say thank you for doing this. You are the one that inspired me to actually do research and try to give fish the best life they could have! Tomorrow im setting up a tank for a betta fish that should arrive in about 2 weeks, you really are the one that inspired me to try out this new hobby and again, thank you!! 🥹🫶🫶

You’re such a great teacher! Appreciate you taking the time to explain design elements and why some things may not look right and how to fix it. Enjoy these low tech builds.

This was a comprehensive yet simple explanation of what's involved for a successful, no-filter set up.

Living in a tropical country, biggest challenge of having a no tech tank will be keeping water temperature below 30C

Perfect timing in posting this video because I am starting my first nano tank and making it self sustainable with tons of plant and shrimp

This is amazing and love the idea of no cleaning and no filter. Thank you going over it so well and the step by step process. It’s now inspired me to create a similar project which me and my 4 year old can do together. She’s very excited

What a beauty lil tank. The orange/ red plants look so stunning with that male fish.

You have inspired me to install a tank in my home. I’m loving it and it working so well!

That Molly and swordtail tank looked totally stunning!

Those emerald green rasboras are my favorite. Their coloration is so vibrant, their bars even seem to flicker like an octopus.

I truly enjoy these weekend builds! I watch, then get busy on my own tanks!

Fantastic. But, I love seeing a few minutes video of your completed tanks at the end, as you have done on other scapes. Would you please keep doing this?

Never get tired of any beautiful freshwater tropical fish! There's no such thing as "oh no, not more endlers"! Haha

My best tank to date is a heavily planted 6x6x12 (inches) dirted tank. Helped me learn so much.

Keep up the hard work MD. Still love watching your content! Can’t wait to see all the things you create in the new studio!😄🐠🐡

I am so happy I have found your channel! I used to have two 50's, a 30 and some smaller baby raising tanks, 10's.... but its such a shock to see someone who does the fresh water fish instead of the complications of the salt water tanks. I love fresh water fish, there is so much variety in them and they are so easy to care for -- but I'm in an apartment now and didn't think I wanted to hassle with tiny tanks, they take more cleaning than a big tank! But you have proven me wrong, this is a great way to do a nano tank, no hassle, no worry, it cleans itself this way. Now I know that I should concentrate more on the plants and do snail and shrimps for cleaning, and that I don't have to have the heaters and pumps and tank hoods and undergravel filter systems.... and I could have my cardinals or neons or other tiny fish, I miss them sooo much...! and those flame endlers are stunning! umm.... even if I don't do a tank for a year or so, now I have your channel -- a place to get so many ideas for tiny tanks in the meantime!! I'm gong to be watching your current and your past videos, thanks for so much great information!!

Ive got 5 gallon tank I’ve been waiting to scape. This is perfect! I will use this for inspiration ❤

Amazing how certain principles of design are used in real life. The use of negative space, repetition, & balance was carefully thought out 🙏

Great presentation! Thanks so much for the tips about floating plants, adding the shrimp first, conditioning the water, packing plants in, etc. so much useful info in here. Great job and beautiful, too. Youre an artist.

so good to see you back on the nano build, takes me back to your garden shed builds 👍👍👍👍👍

Thank you so much for making this video! I’ve been wanting a no filter nano tank setup for my desk at home.

"It's just water in there"😄 Love the way you make it look so simple. Thank you md

No filter nano videos are by far my favorite ❤

This is amazing

Went to Fish street at my city. It is famous for having all sorts of tanks,plants and fish . Bought some filter and came home. Was thinking abt setting up a small tank sometime soon and here i see MD pull up a new video

I am loving all the new builds and love seeing you so happy filling out that beautiful new studio! Incredible tank per usual, even on the small scale compared to all the big builds recently!

Could you please do a follow up video to show how this tank is doing now, I am trying to replicate your setup and thinking of buying only one gender species to avoid over breeding. Thanks

Beautiful. Great details about striking the symbiotic balance.

Watch like 3-10 of you all Videos and I realized I have to go watch literally all of them . What a amazing well set up channel

Look at all those empty tanks at the end. Looks like many more projects. Can't wait.

Another nice tank! And nothing wrong with another Endler tank! I've got 5 tanks ranging from 10g - 75g, and right now my favorite is my 10g office tank with just Endlers of all sizes, snails, and some yellow shrimp. I've been fishkeeping 45 years, since I was about 10. Started with elementary school guppies we got to bring home, then moved on to tetras, cichlids, and what not, and it wasn't until the past year I rediscovered livebearers Your channel helped get me back into them.

This video is exactly what ive been searching for over the last 4 months! Thank you!

I do a medium thickness substrate layer too. With the right plants, it's quite effective. The way I see it, if it works, then it works.

Awesome job MD! It’s bloody gorgeous!

I enjoy your videos, I've learned a lot from you. I have a 55 gallon tank, and since I been watching your videos, my fish tank is boss. ✌🏾

MD! Brilliant as always. Cant wait for the emerald danio tank!!!

Endlers are awesome, but I love love love chili rasboras for nanos. And shrimp, of course! Just a note about the snails...don't put too many in at once in a small tank! I crashed my cycle in one ten gallon by tossing a man's handful of ramshorns...just plop and even with a good filter I got an ammonia spike.

im never gonna get mad if u get another variation of endlers love those fish. getting ready to set up a tank for them myself soon

I’ve been suggesting lobelia for ages ! Such a lovely plant

That really turned out nice. I would love to get a few nano tanks so I can practice aquascaping (and get more nano fish, I love little fish).

This is the most beautiful detailed video I have seen on KZfaq I had been searching for a good video and this one is sooo chefs kiss!!!

Love small builds! It something ppl with small homes (like me lol) can do!

Beautiful tank! I admit, I didn't care for the look of these rocks, when you first put them in, but after the plants went in, I absolutely love them! Totally changed the look, it did! Shame on me for having doubts, MD! :) I have a regular 5 gallon tank that I didn't know what to do with, as far as decorating that is. Now I know I will be able to do it, and it'll come out beautiful! Thanks for doing this one! Do you happen to have a link to that light you put on it, to demonstrate the build, by any chance?

I thank you so much because you give us the info and web-pages below to see which item is best for us. I've been searching what size stone to buy for my cube tank and here it is, Landen tonwa stones for small tanks. Thank you.

My brother sets up little nano saltwater tanks with bits of coral growing in them, plus little snails and starfish crawling around.

I’m thinking about making a nano for my classroom! This is perfect!

Great now im obsessed with watching you build these beautiful tanks. Let me binge watch 5 more 😻

When i clean out my nano tanks, i out your video in the background while cleaning up mine.

About a month ago now I did a little tank like this. I wish I had some floating plants like you have. The only thing I have was duckweed .😢 it is definitely growing good now

Best way to wake up on Saturday! MD DROP!

Looks great. The only thing I would change for a proper LOW-COST TANK is a desk cheapo lamp. Cheers from Poland U all.

Awesome video! You are the reason I have this new hobby and I thank you for this 😊 I was on holidays in UK near Wellington so I had to stop at Maidenhead Aquatics to see the shop and the fish tanks you made there. Plus, I'm bring back in France some of your red root floaters 😂😁

Another beautiful set up as always.

Sure no cap that intro “wassup beautiful people made my day” 💯

I had to go shopping a couple of days ago because…. I got 6 Bosemani Rainbowfish, 6 Blue Tuxedo Platies and a couple of Black Neon Tetras. I’m looking forward to seeing them grow and get their colours. I could never have an aquarium on my desk. I’d never get anything done.

Love. Thank you for doing what you do!

I enjoy your videos, I've learned a lot from you. I have a 55 gallon tank, and since I been watching your videos, my fish tank is boss.

Yes, snails are wonderful!

The owl tank is just incredible

This nano looks phenominal! The pop of colour from those red plants is really beautiful. I want to get some of the Rotala H'ra myself but I've read it needs CO2 to really thrive and bring out the colours like you have here. Did it do well in this low tech setup?

I would always have a filter and heater even the smallest possible sizes available. I like the lighting apparatus too though it looks a bit short in length!

It's one o'clock and i have to get up sooooo early tomorrow but i can't stop marvelling about your beautiful nano tank and falling deeply in love with it and the fishnerds in the shop 🥰

thanks so much for sharing! this small set up is exactly what i was looking for

looks beautiful, I want to learn about keeping fish and Im glad I found your channel.

Do you have any videos (or recommend any) explaining the benefits of floating plants? I want to try this no filter set up

Those owl rocks are so cute.

Hola amigo, te veo feliz como siempre, eso es por que tu corazón está en la acuariofilia; tu empeño es grande y agradecido para muchos que nos hace feliz ese don que tienes en los peces, woow Dios te bendice en tus proyectos 🙏

Tried something similar, got huge biofilm at surface. Added a filter in the end

Great video, I'd love to see a tank with Dwarf Emeralds or Celestial Pearl Danios. In fact it would be amazing to see one of your new big tanks have a huge shoal of them, instead of 10 or so in a Nano tank. Throw in some Badis and you could have a Myanmar lake shore biotype in the making!

Another great little set up mate 👍🏻

Md is so good even his rocks are pearling

I love it! If only I had small bits of the right substrate, and an amazing inventory of wood or rocks. The light appears to be perfect! The Endlers are to die for. Ya did good! It was fun watching it come together. Thanks!

Love it brilliant video MD you get better and better…👍🏻

life might be hard but at least theres a new md fish tanks video

LOVE watching your videos. I would like to begin with a tank like this! Thank You!!

Best aquarium channel on KZfaq

I love matt's neon sweatshirt.!!!

Love the narrative! ❤😂

I am so glad I found your channel. I have a ten gallon with a beta and filter. That’s gonna change for sure. I love this nano tank idea and will be setting up my own as well. I can’t wait. I was taking notes for sure. This tank is gorgeous. I do have a question. I live near a huge lake. Can I use the driftwood from the lake? If so how should I prepare it before use?

Thank you!! This made so much sense!

Very nice and awesome little nano tank. Well done and congratulations.

In my youth I had a 20 gallon long tank and completely over stocked it with 30 or 40 fish of all kinds; barbs, angels, different kinds of tetras, betta, Gouramis, swordtails, Kuhli Loachs, catfish, lots of guppies and tons of plants. I had a heater with an under gravel filter and a side mount filter. No fancy equipment and no fancy sand just a 3 to 4 inch coarse gravel sand. Worked just fine. I know I some more fish that I can't remember like bumble bee fish and others.

Because of your videos I have given the nano aqua scape a try. It is a very similar set up to what you did here. Do you ever have oxygen issues in a small tank with no water movement?

I want my next life as a guppy in that tank

Thanks again for a great little scape.

Omg I know this is just a tank video but I learned so much😂😂😂 really good word and keep making videos😊

TIMMY NEEDS HIS DONE!!! IM SO EXCITED FOR HIS!!

I only use water and a plain paper towel to clean my tank glass . . Cleans it right up/off, and I'd be afraid I might kill my fish with any "cleaner" . What are you confident enough in to use on your tanks? (in other words, What did you use?)

wow u make it look so easy.... ill keep this in mind thank u

how does this man maintain all the aquariums, must be tiring but surely rewarding.

Do you do water changes on these tanks at all? Also what type of water do you use

That is a great-looking little tank

me watching this vids knowing my mom will never allow it

Fantastic, Just loved it❤❤
