Tx for this great content MD! Ive learned so much from your videos and im loving all the natural set ups and no filter videos! I have a question, id like to learn more about anearobic bacteria and how they could be important in your aquarium. The thing is that im not sure how kmportant they really are and how much i have to do to create anearobic bacteria. I always thinking variation is key, but how much? Can you do a video about it maby, sharing your knowledge about the subject? I think its an very underrated subject

My man, you offer the best tank build content on KZread. Thanks for giving ways to save money and ways to accomplish complex looking tanks in a step by step process. Thanks so much.

Oh MD. Another GORGEOUS tank. You are soooo inspiring. Your enthusiasm is contagious, yet your voice and presence is so soothing. I actually save your videos for when I really need them the most. Therapeutic, really. I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for what you give to all of us. I have been feeling some tank burnout, and you truly help me. In your next tank, the wee one, I would love to see something kind of minimalist perhaps. Not your usual style, I know. Maybe with epiphytes?

You are the Bob Ross of tank creation. I feel like I'm watching his paint show and seeing art come to life.

I actually cannot put into words how incredible this tank is.. You continue to out do yourself, thanks for the continued inspiration

I don’t know why, but pearling aquarium plants are one of the most beautifully satisfying sights I’ve seen. I love it!

Reds are my favorite... and this tank turned out absolutely delightful! It's perfect for that gorgeous white betta!

Just got home from work and now I get to unwind to a new MD video. Love the builds you do. Such an inspiration!

I vote for another Betta for the empty tank!

I love my little tank, heavily planted and both fish and plants doing well. 🙂

This turned out amazingly beautiful! Well done! It's really inspiring. As for a new build for the old tank, I think you should ask Matt to choose a fish, and you make a scape inspired off that.

Your energy is something I always look forward when I click your videos and your content definitely one of the best on the platform. One day I hope to make a giant ecosystem tank like yours! Keep it up MD!

MD, I have to say that this is my favorite tank you’ve done. The initial video when you put in the betta, stunning. And the reds bring out the reddish pink of the fish. Well done 👍

Love this tank. I gotta say man I’ve been following for about 2 years now and this has to be one of my favorite builds you have created. All the reds and pinks to browns and greens. Very nice contrasts. Keep up the great content!

This is my favorite setup you’ve done so far, no question. Might be the best build I’ve ever seen, period.

I’m so glad you’ve been experimenting with the different soils. I used compost trying to do a walstead inspired set up and couldn’t figure out why my plants were rotting at the root until you figured it out for me. Thank you! Love your content

I have used the api products for years and years. I absolutely love them.

You are my FAVORITE KZread channel and Fish Shop Matt is my second favorite. I went back and watched every single video you’ve ever posted from your first short videos; where you didn’t even talk. Did you fix your living room aquarium?

The most beautiful build! Gorgeous red forest, you out did yourself MD!

Thanks for sharing your craft. I've been out getting mud, soil, sand samples to start a dirted tank. Spent all afternoon getting aquatic plants from local ponds to try my first micro ecosystem tank.

Perfect fish for that scape. Normally I hate scapes with floating plants, but in this case they match the Autumnal feel perfectly, and because of the wood you've used, look like low-hanging leaves. Don't know if you intended it to look like that, but it certainly gives it more of a diorama feel than just another tank with stuff in it. Well done :)

This is one of my favorite builds you’ve done MD 😍

Hey, I just wanted to say thank you, MD! I really enjoy your videos. I have watched sooo many videos about scaping, aquariums in general and was always feeling not good enough or not knowing enough (even though my betta and shrimp do great :)). And I always felt like I had to chase after so many things: A better light, a better filter, better soil, plants, do I need co2?... You name it. But your content just really makes me happy. It's so relaxing and inspiring. And it makes me think about what I can change in my tanks without having to spend tons of money. I really feel how I get creative and into my own projects. This weekend I will finally start rearranging my betta cube. I bet he'll thank you, too :) Greetings from Germany!

Yet another STUNNING creation. You do good work! Thanks for sharing!

I've been feeling really overwhelmed while trying to figure out how to set up a tank in my room and this really helped me. Thank you so much.

Bravo, MDFishTanks! As usual, you've elevated aquarium aquascaping to the level of art, composition, and sculpture. Your tanks always look AMAZING! :)

I'm waiting for a pygmy cory build. A few panda cory's at the bottom and a school of pygmys makes for a surprisingly fun to watch tank!

Tank Suggestion:- Baron, cliff like canyon. Think wild west.. Tall earth coloured rocks, pathways.. the odd bit of foliage dotted around. A native american landscape submerged with small fish inhabiting a forgotten land. ✌

My jaw is dropped!! The most beautiful aquarium and absolutely love this... Speechless mate

You tank really looks beautiful. The buc with the red plants, red wood and the green front plants really does it. Well done MD. I love it.👍👌🤗🥰

I absolutely love this tank. Gorgeous! One of your best builds!

You've outdone yourself with this build! By far my favourite one.

They keep sponsoring you because your the reason I buy API products for all my fish needs, and I’ve recommended it to all my friends who are just getting into the hobby. Every time I watch one of your vids with them, it reminds me to check if I need to buy more 😂

A wonderful looking tank as always! Working on a 70 Gal Rainbow tank myself... i would say for the rework, a mini jungle tank! With an imposing focal point such as a chonky root coming right out the tank. Plenty of mosses and some unique dwarf air plants planted on/around the root would look killer! Then to top it off, some dwarf white frogs or other type of frog would be really neat! would bring that vibe together nicely. Keep On Swimming from Canada!

MD, I’ve been following you for a while now and this is by far your best scape. Well done man. You’ve inspired me to scape a 3.5 gal bowl, 10 gal, and I’m waiting on plants to start my new 60 gal! I wanted to try something like this too, super red!

its like he was watching u make it and saw u coming to grab him and got excited

Wow! Absolutely brilliant, the wood looks amazing. Thank you

The reds are so pretty! My favourite build to date!!!

One of the most beautiful aquariums I've ever seen.

This is one of my favorite builds you have done. When I see MD made a new video I know it will be a great video! Keep it up!

I love dirted tanks. All my tanks are dirted tanks, even the high tech ones. Recently I've had a lot of success mixing organic potting soil with the laterite red soil from where I live and a teeny tiny bit of crushed coral.

Hi MD just wanted to thanks you for all of your great video. Im from france and everytime i watch one of ur video i want to do an aquarium so much ! Keep Going

youve convinced me after watching for two years to finally do videos of my favorite things, AquaScaping I'm starting with my trusty S9+ as you did years ago hope to get to your level one day

Wow!!! This tank is stunning!! I think it's my absolute favorite!! 😍

Looks so good with the white betta against the dark background and red plants. I'm sure that wood is going to release tons of tannins. A small mesh bag of charcoal hidden in the back can help pull them out reducing the need for multiple water changes during the first few weeks. Or letting it go completely black water might look cool too! For the small tank how about something you haven't done in awhile like a small paludarium? Maybe mixed with a minimalist mountain scape jutting out of the water in the corner very rock heavy with small plants carpeting? I can't wait to see what you come up with!

Hi MD Wow. Straight up the most beautiful tank you've ever done. Nice.

Wow amazing! Tank looks deep with the different colours- great work MD x

Love the tanks! Thanks to your vids I got the courage to completely overhaul my two tanks, so thankyou! :)

Would be cool to see you take on a Walstad method tank combined with the dutch styled tank. No hardscape, just lots of stems. Never seen a dutch-style setup without CO2 and filter! Great work!

Another amazing build... You've inspired alor of my builds and can't believe how sweet it looks when done...thank you so much MD...more shrimp tanks please

Looks amazing!!! The Illusion of depth it just awesome!!!

My female dumbo betta has, what I call, “lacey wings” too! Lol. Your betta is beautiful and your tanks are always amazing 💯 Keep up the great work, it's very appreciated 💜

This is fantastic! It really looks like a submerged tree. The color is amazing.

Thank you so much for the educational videos, and I am here planning on how to make a super natural looking tank before I even get my fish ❤

You have a knack for making the tanks look so natural

Watching again…gorgeous, humans tank fir your betta…just beautiful.!

Wasn't expecting an MD video today. What a great surprise!:)

You are an artist. Beautiful creations.

Great setup! You are becoming my aquarium youtube hero!

Very informative. Wanted to do a planted aquarium but was intimidated. After watching your video psyched to start. Thank you

The wood is a really lovely colour. Compliments the red fauna nicely.

I want to start doing this when I get a house. Its so peaceful and educational

Wow this has to be one of my favorite builds so far, thanks for the inspiration

Think this is one of my favourite tanks well done

I’m a great fan of API products. I also use the one with rooting hormone.

Beautiful tank, love those bright pink stems! For the old tank I'd love to see you do a new betta setup but this time using tiger lotus plants and showcasing a single female betta! I know the males are stunning, but I recently learnt that a huge % of females get culled as part of the betta breeding process because they're less in demand than the males. I think that's such a shame, as often the girls can also be super colourful and have great little personalities too. I know you've previously done a sorority tank and that was awesome, but perhaps if you used this old tank to do a new aquascape showing off a single female, it might inspire others to also consider giving a home to a girlie betta rather than just automatically going straight for the boys :-)

You’re other betta video made me want a white dumbo so bad when I’ve tried so hard to resist the temptation for new fish. This just made life even harder 😂

These are some brilliant reds! Absolutely beautiful. It's a great contrast for the betta. This almost looks like an enchanted forest with a little fishy unicorn inside lol. With the spare tank I would really like to see some emerse growth in there. I absolutely love the look of plants growing out at the top of scapes and it's often done in bigger tanks. So I think it would be cool to have something like this on a smaller scale, because I suppose many of us have tanks on this smaller side :)

API has really helped me out as well.

Loads of planaria at 13:25 But as always een beautyfull scape , love it.

Aside from the Amazon tank ( we need an update!!!) this is my favorite tank. Sooo beautiful. Nice job MD!!!

Wow!! Just wow!!! Beautiful tank. My half moon Betta is getting a new tank now.

Learned a lot of making my aquascapeing much better, especially on substrate and wood staying down instead of floating.
