Thank you so much MD your videos were the reason I managed to get my family to let me keep my first ever aquascape 🙏
I've had my cichlids for a year now. They reproduce like crazy! But I've always had anubias, java fern, and crypts in their tank. They've never eaten any of them. They may have rearranged the smaller ones a bit, but that's no big deal. I just upgraded their tank a few days ago and added a LOT of different anubias, java fern, and crypts. They seem to love their new, bigger environment! Don't let anyone tell you you can't have any plants in a cichlid tank. Stem plants wouldn't do well, but the ones I've listed are great. Couple those with frogbit and it keeps a more stable space for them. ❤
EBAs are great fish! They’re like puppies. They follow you around and look like they’re smiling. Mine use leaf litter for spawning, so if you put some large leaves in you’ll see them carrying them around in their mouth. The male will pick up a leaf, show the female, and do a little shimmy shake dance. However they also seem to destroy red plants, maybe for the same reason. Love all your tanks!
MD, I LOVE your 'scapes and fish selections. Showing us all of the different things that can be done and how interesting it can be. But I swear, you and Matt together are the best comedic power. I'm literally crying tears at the "Stay around for the release." that smile on Matt, and your reaction. 🤣🤣🤣 I love y'all, respectfully.
Matt looked like you woke him up 😂 Great video! Those Blue Accra are stunning!
You, your family and Matt feels like family. I'm alone a lot and I don't even have an aquarium, but I just love your videos. Very calming. So thank you. And Hi from Denmark.
I had a Mbuna cichlid tank running for over a year. It was fully planted with a ton of anubius and they never once ate any of the plants! In my other tank at the moment I have about 25 blue Acaras as they decided to breed about 4 month ago. The mum fish is an electric blue Acara and the father is a blue Acara. The babies took after their father but they have a lovely sheen of electric blue in them. Hands down my favourite fish I’ve kept so far!
MD, you made me grow fond of the Blue Acaras, I love them. I was thinking to build a tank with them. Then you built the mbuna tank and that completely ruined everything because now I want a mbuna tank. Today you showed the blue acara AGAIN and I want to have BOTH... LOL.... Great video as always. OH btw, tell the Cichlids Police that George Farmer has about 10 mbunas on a planted (full of Anubias) 45 Gal for over 2 years and they are not only thriving as they are breading as well - and that only happened after he added the plants. 😆
Acara is one of my favourite fish, these are gorgeous! Also, you need to give your fishies voices more often, I love the commentaries
Matts shop really does get some awesome looking fish 👍
I love your channel.the tanks are beautiful and you are just so positive in these negative times. Thank you😊

Right?! I think MD is like the Bob Ross of aquascaping. He is just so up-beat and relaxing at the same time.

Ignore the people that say mbuna and plants don’t mix. Yeah it’s not there natural habitat but it can and does work. I kept a VERY heavily stocked mbuna tank with Java ferns and anubias for years.

This is great to see popping up in comments, especially since it's coming from multiple people who've had success. I think the mbuna species are GORGEOUS, but I don't like hardscape-only tanks, MUST have plants, so I had written off ever having them. I love Anubias, though, and knowing they can be successfully kept with mbunas has me rethinking my decision to never have these pretty cichlids.
MD doing fish voices is one of the reasons I watch his videos keep it up
This tank has got to be one of my favorites so far, the stocking is just superb too!
That tank looks like it was set up a year ago. You do absolutely amazing work and I wish I could visit your studio some day. Incredible. Great video work as well.
-Stay around for the release! -Agh (Laughter) Had me rollin 😂
Matt looks so tired! You both work so hard, thank you MD and Matt for teaching us everything you have, giving us insight to your lives and giving us all inspiration for our own aquariums, terrariums, and paludariums. Yous are amazing!
MD do you read comments? I just wanted to let you know that I have 15 no filter no water change ecosystem tanks because of you!!!! It's so insane once they're settled! All i do is top off the water and feed the fish!!! EASY
I love the Royals! The Acaras too of course. Great additions. The Mbuna tank is looking great. Thanks MD.
I liked seeing Kate in the background when Matt was explaining! I hope she goes into a deep fishkeeping arc.
Those Royals are beautiful. I can't wait to see them develop. I do like fish you have to look at to appreciate them. I've got a river tank with pearl danio. They look pretty bland at first glance but when you watch them you see some beautiful iridescent colours.
"Different shades of gray and brown" made me laugh! So true! Beautiful aquarium
Beautiful tank! Also, the Mbuna tank looks Amazing!! 😃🎉
“Stay around for the release” Hilarious lol Hello from California
The Mbuna tank is off the scale 👏🏻 I’ve always preferred more hardscape as opposed to plants 👌🏻
I'll be honest, I really love the yellowy tint that tannins give a tank! It feels so much more natural to me.
my nana used to have a column tank that was an octagon, its what really got me into fish, i bet you could do something crazy with something like that!
In my experience talking with people who've kept both Malawi and Tanganyikan cichlids, both Anubias and Javafern work well with them, as both plants are very though and do well in the harder water both types of fish enjoy. Also, both the Acara species look lovely.
That fish guys begin to appreciate fish differently over time is similar to floral designers. All of us seem to begin to really admire green flowers over time!
Perfect electric blue acara release video while I'm sporting the Md EB acara T-shirt :)
I absolutely love watching these videos but also hate them haha, I always look at my tanks and have a crazy cleaning spree afterwards 😂 keep pumping out the quality mate loving the look of the studio 👍
Love the cichlid choice for the tank! I have yet to keep acara but there are a few types that interest me. They are furs sure on my list of must have fish! I'm definitely looking for those kribensis like cichlids next those were so cool!
Cant go wrong with the Electric blues 👌🏻 maybe one day they will come up With a fire 🔥 red acara ?
Further MD - Since you have a studio, why not have a centralized filtration that you could tie all your tanks in if you like? Would require some plumbing, but you could use a central big fluidized filter or trash bins full of media.
I definitely love your work even tho i'm not commenting to much around. Keep up the great work you inspire us! About what you said at 5:20 i think is the opposite. The plant usually when a leaf is in poar shape or a bit older will extract the resources from that and use it for the new growing ones. Some kind of "canibalism" if you wish. But you are doing a great job by trimming those old leafs off to prevent them to rot and polute water. Having that much of patience is amazing, good job mate! I learn alot from your videos as an aquascaper and a content creator!
Wowzers that scape is awesome. Stunning,,
Your scapes look great! I hope to one day achieve that look in my 400G community aquarium. Great video.
Lovin the more frequent vids MD! Genuinely makes my day better. Cheers mate
I literally just gasped when you cut to the Mbuna tank! Stunning! And oh how I love Electric Blue Acaras! I must set up a tank and get me some!
Hilarious way to wrap up the video, love the tank!
Those lamp eye are absolutely stunning they really pop on the green
The BEST / EPIC Aquarium setup videos on YOU TUBE!!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Sorry MD but the thumbnail looks like you have a crazy ponytail and I can’t unsee it 😂😂
Next time...Tropheus ( lake tanganyika). Try no plants. Curious how you would set it up. Coop with Matt!
Awesome video mate, i absolutely love the natural look to this tank. The different colours in the plants is absolutely stunning!. Gotta love electric blue Acaras , i have tonnes of acara fry its insane 😊
Just got a royal acara last month. At first it was shy in quarantine then it was a total terror in my 55g community. I moved it to my SA 75g and it seems to be holding its own and not bothering anyone yet. Kind of wishing I didn't get it now.
I'm happy to see the bigger fish making a comeback. The ones I aspire toward keeping. The little ones and Bettas that I can do.
So beautiful! Love the colors! And it looks really natural…like a snapshot of a piece of very healthy river.
The eventual gravitation towards brown/grey understated fish is so true! 😂
Wonderful esthetics, great video quality, plus you and Matt have such fun rapport. Those are some of the reasons why this is my favorite fish/aquascaping channel. Fanks!
Loved the curious blue acara went behind the royal and then they were like 2 gangs bonding. Always happy to see different fish interactions. I think the big royal would be good as a centrepiece for the cichlid tank MD
From Việt Nam with love 🇻🇳🇻🇳🇻🇳❤❤❤
My Electric Blues are my fav fish so far! Great choices
So happy to see blue Accra back in the studio wooh love them
Love your new chiclid fish tank.
Wow! Now I want some Electric Blue Acara! They really are spectacular.
So fun You changed a lot of water
You should put it down to the setup..and having the little fish in first who are clearly loving it has to help.
Dwarf gourami are my favourite. Neons and red flame
Loving how you're a accidently making amazing black water tanks without even thinking about it
I loved you other electric blue acaras ... so glad you've got some more ❤❤❤
I was so excited to see the golden harlequins - we have some and I love them! Fabulous tank 🤩
this was lowkey the funniest vlog youve uploaded in a while
I love your videos so much! Thanks, MD! ❤️🐠🌱🐌🐟
I got a pair of electric blue acara about a month ago and they are just water puppies! I swear, when I come to the tank with some food, they literally push half way out of the water to meet me and get food.
beautiful i love it the first setup !
Loved the new fish you added. 🐠🐟🐠🐟🐠 Gina
i kept water lettuce with yellow labs and demasoni for a while with no issues. the fry used it to hide
Love that you got the blues back again! I’m wondering, would they be ok in a 2 foot tank? Or is that too small?

Too small.
it would be super cool to see some blue gularis killifish on this channel
I would love to see some budget challenges for example nano tank from scratch with a 100€ budget and start a series que f different budgets
I wish Electric Blue Acaras were easier to find around here in Brazil.
Excellent Work Dud....
Love the new fish !!! I just had a new batch of eba's born in my 125 community tank ❤
Yay the EBAs are back! (Well new ones )
I’m excited for the bowl video I have wanted to do one for ages.
Electric blues!!! Yeayyy!!!
I've missed the electric blue acaras! They are so personable! I love your scapes
demn first time to see Royal Accara stunning
I wish my planted tank could look as good as yours
Everything looks great. I have plants in with my manual.
Excellent video ❤
Gorgeous
im a fan from Philippines. I always watch your videos while im editing wedding photos.
Happy to see the Electic Blue's back!
Lovely tank 👌
🎉!Ya! I was rooting for the blue Acaras🥰
Man you are really making me want to get my fish tanks back and start keep cichlids again
you and matt are like the martha stewart and steve irwin (respectively) of this hobby!
Only found ur channel recently and im hooked watching the past setups being made. Do u ever do aquascapes with more tropical scenery like coral?
You should get a electric blue jack dempsey... if you feed them pellets and start them out with large tetras you can probably keep them from being murderous. I had one that was amazingly gentle... although he was in with a jaguar cichlid that was super aggressive with him before I took them.... so he was relieved to be away from Karen ...yes she was Karen he was jack😅
You made my day better MD fishtank❤❤💫
I tuned in excited about your new Hare Krishna haircut from the thumbnail and was disappointed. Another amazing aquarium saved the day! Thanks for all the great videos!!
Hey MD, have a great day!
love the content md
New video!!!! Typing before i watch, cant wait to see the new fish lol
Dang, MD you have to enter the IAPLC sometime or ill go crazy
Best tank!
