Hey MD, are these owls still available at IKEA or did you pick them up a while ago? I absolutely love them and also because I used to have a barn owl called Titch but he passed away many years ago now but I like getting owl related things in memory of him. ✌️💙

I really like how this build turned out. The owls remind me of the heads from Easter Island in an interesting way. I feel like multi color shrimp were a wonderful edition to this build as well.
I'm SO GLAD someone on the internet has documented using epoxy to coat their aquarium decor!! I was researching a few weeks ago about coating the painted decor in my axolotl tank, and could barely find any information on it. I ended up winging it and painting on some food-safe epoxy, which has worked so well. Brilliant job!

Makes so much sense
Those owls remind me of totem poles. They actually look better with the epoxy coating. I've always wondered what your local water parameters are because all your plants are thriving. You always do a great job with your aquarium setups.

Here in California reverse osmosis is the best bet for water some water stores have it buy it in the gallons
Great video. You and Fish Shop Matt NEED to do a weekly podcast. You could do it from a restaurant/pub and call the podcast "Fish & Chips." You could answer viewer emails and comments and talk about all the latest in the fish keeping world.
Did anyone think Easter Island? Maybe Owlster Isle is appropriate for this one. Thanks for the great videos and tips!
I got my first planted tank started yesterday. I'm literally on the way to the fish store right now to buy more plants. I'm going to get some of the API water clarifier because my water still just a little cloudy. All my readings are good. Hopefully I'll go back later today to get my first batch of fish and shrimp. Thank you so much m d for giving me the courage to start a planted tank. I've been watching aquascaping for three years and felt like it was out of my reach. But you showing me I could do low-tech tanks and showing that even you make mistakes and you can just redo it. Game changer!!! My birthday is March 11th, but my fiance bought me this tank is an early birthday present and said, just do it. Thank you so much MD for sharing. 🤗🙂😃☺️
Can't wait for the new Buddha statue aquarium. That was amazing
Shrimpies are so cute! I love that you do theme tanks around them. In my honest opinion, they are the only pet you can keep in a small tank at a desk job and still enjoy them 😊
They look like little Easter Island heads - love it!
Easter island with owls and shrimp... that a hoot..lol.
That's an awesome idea with the owls - a very minimalistic little setup so you can easily watch the shrimp👍😊
You know, sometimes you really can never get enough of seeing a good shrimp tank
I actually like the owls darker. Sealing them was brilliant. 👍❤️👍
I really like the look of the shrimp tank. I think it's the first time I've seen you use decor that isnt wood and rocks. But the stone statue look is cool. All those gorgeous colorful shrimp! Love seeing your family at your studio. Your kids are adorable!

I’d be excited to see themed (small) tanks that Gracie and/or the other kids each design!! Wouldn’t quite be the same vibe as MDs tanks but maybe a bit of fun and possibly something to go on some of the lower shelves of the racks too!!

Design and help make! Probably would contain some pirate ships or ‘gimmicky’ decorations but a lot of fun I think :) also a Kate tank would be cool and fun to see if/when she ever wants to
Love the owls and how the shrimp give that pop of colour
I love the simplicity of this design but the sort of wildness of the planting. Tempting me to set up a tank again after falling out of love with the hobby 🙂
The owls now look like they’re carved out of soapstone - beautiful!
The build looks great, but it was really sweet to see the family. It's nice when they can go to work with Dad and see what he does all day. 👍❤️👍
I love you did something like this. My Mrs "made me" do a tank with a sunken boat thing and some treasure chests - hardly an aquascape - but I went with it and did the best job I could and it turned out quite cool
Reminds me of easter island heads, but more creative. sweet!
Reminds me of the Easter island heads. Sharp intake of breath from the shrimp purists 😂
Stunning! Also, I think the owls look better shiny and darker like that and I can't wait to see it with a full green carpet!
Oh, now I need to go to Ikea and try to find those little owls for myself too. :D
MD - my first post - I've been watching your videos NON-STOP for a couple months now! I've gotten the fish-bug pretty hard because of you!! Thanks for that. LOL And well done on the new studio - you have made quite career of this!!! How envious many people must be that you are prosperous doing what you love! I know I am! LOL... I've created 2 solid small (5 and 10gallon) eco/aqua-scapes based on what I learned from you. They are doing GREAT. I have 4 more tanks and will be doing the same in those. One of them will be a shrimp tank. I bought some dragon-stone, as per one of your videos. It's really cool looking and can't wait to build that out! My actual question is about shrimp and is simple... well, the question is simple, but the answer might not be!! I see that you put all kinds of colorful shrimp together and I'm wondering how you choose which genus to mix, or if you even care. I've started research about how to choose, and would prefer not to end up with all brown/gray boring shrimp babies! I saw you had juveniles that seemed true to color. Any guidance would be deeply appreciated. Thank you and keep up the great work. Can't wait to see where you branch off to in the future.
Look like the Moai heads on Easter Island !! 👍
This tank is sooo cute the owls and shrimp and beautiful! So cute to see the whole fam in the shop working
Always excited to see your video notification pop up. Keep up the good work MD! , cheers from NZ
Your family is adorable ❣Betta tank looks amazing and I like the new owl shrimp tank too 🦐
at 0:29 the little yell in the background music made me think dalla dalla was playing lol
MD, the best part of this build are your children. I think you should do a build with all 3 of them helping you. Thank you from NYC
I really love the simplicity of this build. Very nice work!
I immediately thought about this ikea stuff to change the water parameters and I'm glad you addressed that. Another thing: Is your studio now finished? I'm waiting for part 5 building the studio :D
This gives a Easter island vibe...
Another great Scape...... And great to see that you've overcome the ph issue..... And showed us how to do it as well..... Your studio is awesome and I look forward to much more content as always
Ok ok... now this tank is now my favorite..... anything with owls will immediately go to the top of the list! This looks so so awesome in its simplicity.
Those owls remind me of the Moai statues on Easter Island. tfs
Absolutely amazing as always MD!

Just started this video and I already love it! I really like a mix of nature and some simple artificial decor. I love your work, such an inspiration!
It's like an owl easter island shrimp tank.
Ahhh!! I love it!! I just set up an invertebrate tank for a pair of Bamboo/ wood shrimp, asst neo cardinia and a mystery 🐌. I'm so jealous now!! I'll have to get another tank now!! Also, the owls are reminiscent of Easter Island. Very cool!!! ✌️
Very Easter Island vibes
I like the way you are showing the API products in your new studio, really lovely.
I watch all these videos! The beta tank is probably my favorite, but I love the little owl setup. I've thought some like, psuedo- Aztec statues would be neat. Like a flooded ruins. I want that water treatment for the tap water that I use for myself haha
Thanks you are a true inspiration for people who love aquatic life
Cutest family ever!
Old skool MD more of this please
That looks super! Seriously love the owls.
Nice! Great inspiration for my upcoming office shrimp tank! From the start I am getting Easter island vibes!!!
Those KIDS!! 🥰 Absolute Rock stars!! And so well behaved! Great work parents!! Oh and very cool tank, I hope IKEA USA has those!
So simple but looks sooooo nice! Makes me want to change my shrimp tank up 🤩
Your knowledge is truly appreciated!
Very different from the normal setup, but I love it. Looks great. I love the shrimp. Keep'em coming MD.
Love this tank and loving the new studio
Swedish Owls in your fish tank! :) Me like! Greetings from Sweden! :)
Love the shrimp tank. The owls are awesome and knowing how to seal them was so smart this is why I love your channel I learn so much thank you. I even have a plant friend wanting you she has a indoor pond but wanted to do fish bowls she has 2 now. Waiting for the next one.
love those statues… I was really dreading them going in so dark once you put the resin on, but this tank turned out incredible
I'm not a fan of these manmade objects in the aquarium but I always want to support MD, maybe next time he'll do something I prefer
Love that you were showing ph and what to do to solve the problem! I’ve been having a lot of trouble with my ph dropping since setting up my tank and can’t figure out why! My tap water is a perfect 7 too!
Ooooo I’m early… I love your videos they’ve helped me out a ton with styles of tanks etc… keep up the great work and keep making content I love to watch your videos throughout the day
Ive been binge watching your videos for weeks😂 im so happy im caught up but now i have to wait for uploads. Your videos are what got me into planted tanks! i have a bunch of plants coming in for my new 30 gallon tank rn

Just a heads up, the owls do "slightly" break down over time. Just a bit though. No harm to the fish or water after 6+months
It is funny, when you first placed the owls in, I thought to myself, "no they should be the other way." Then you changed your mind and placed them the other way. I am a graphic designer and I feel they look better this way. Had the tank been on the right side of the rack, they would look better the other way. Looks good! MZ

Gives stone henge vibes . Love this tank
That’s really cool! I‘m soon gonna remake the tank my parents have and I think using these Ikea owls (or similar decorative statues) is a pretty cool idea that I could incorporate in that. Altough I‘m probably gonna include some mosses or plants that grow on the statues to give it more of a „forgotten jungle temple“-vibe.
i was about to search for shrimp tank ideas. i want to start a 5g shrimp tank. i love your videos so much
I love the owls it reminds me of Stonehenge or Easter island wich is Fascinating to me I love old and ancient artifacts
This was a great video! Keep up the good work.
Great tank, the owls now look more like soap stone carvings rather then concrete. Very nice!
Love it. Am getting bored of my current Betta set up so may try something similar
I like this one a lot. Very Cool
