👇👇MD MERCH CLICK HERE👇👇: FULL SHOP: md-fish-tanks.creator-spring.com Finally....FINALLY!! Timmy my musk turtle has his own proper setup, shared with a few fish of course. We went for Odessa barbs as they are chunky and fast and no way he will be able to catch them. I think this turned out great and he should do really well in here. I don't think Timmy will grow any more. He was the runt of the little and that's why I picked him and seems to stay the same size now. But that's fine because he is crazy cute!

Of course you painted some Warhammer minis, of course you did. ^^ I think lots of us in the aquarium hobby are also into miniatures & wargaming. Sort of attract the same crowd, I guess.

Can you do a story time video of how you got into aquariums, what led to you starting KZread and just the behind the scenes of MD Fish Tanks? I think your old and new subscribers will love that. Love your videos so much! 💞💞💞

Timmy is one lucky little turtle! His new creek tank looks amazing! 🐢 🐢🐢 💕🥰💕

Tip for a future background like that, you can use a drill and a wire brush bit to give more detail and roughness to the foam before painting.

For my mud turtle, Vinnie, I use plants (currently java fern) rooted to small pieces of driftwood. He pushes them around without hurting them and often ends up creating a nice hidey spot for himself. Plus I just grab them out of the tank for cleaning so I don't have to work around them. Vinnie was a wild turtle who got run over years ago and is now blind with some minor neurological issues, so he's very messy and skittish. I want to build him an awesome new setup that meets his special needs and your tank is great inspiration! Timmy is adorable!

I love when we go to the shop! Good choice of a companion for Timmy.

Timmy is a lucky little dude! ❤️🐢🌱🐟

Absolutely love the new studio and the amazing builds you've been making! Been watching for years MD, and I'll stick around for years more mate, keep it up!

Turtles are very good climbers, I’d recommend adding a small rim to the back of the tank where the background is, or just a lid, but glass does filter out some uv so be careful.

@cathrynlisa

yep, he'll be able to climb up that foam background with his clawed little tippy toes

Beautiful!! and created with so much love and care for that little Timmy Kid's needs!! beautiful experience to have watched this!! 😊❤❤❤❤❤❤

Always love watching Timmy getting an upgrade 😊 This one looks absolutely amazing! Congratulations Timmy 🥳🥰

I highly recommend adding a slight hang over glass across the back. Like a permanent lid, about 3in wide, to prevent him from climbing out. Don't underestimate him.

@timforest6785

First thought I had. At one point he will climb out.

Never in my years would I have guessed MD to have been a Warhammer fan, heck yeah!!

It’s so good for Tiny Tim to have his own beautiful scape! Well done. He’s a lucky little turtle. ☺️

I love the new Timothy Tank! When my son was a youngster, he and father found a baby snapping turtle. It was as big as a US quarter. He should have been hibernating and would not make it through the winter. They brought him home and set up a tank. We kept him through the winter and let him go in the spring when it was safe. We released him at the same place as he was before.

I kept waiting for MD to take his brush and tell us “beat the devil out of it”

It’s so nice! Thanks for sharing MD. I love it when you make new scapes for TimA.

👇 If you agree Timmy is the GOAT.

FINALLY 🙌🏼 so excited for Timmy. Love the setup, was worth the wait for the video!

Great set up for Timmy! I very much enjoyed watching the process.

This was definitely worth the wait! Looks awesome MD. Swim happy little Timmy 🥰

Timmy and beautifully epic new home you've built. He has lots of new places to explore and new fish friends. I love to watch you shop with Fish shop Matt as well. This is such a fun video. Staying indoors binge watching your youtube channel from Texas USA we are in our 4th week of 100°f / 38°c

This is one of my favorite tanks you’ve done!! Loved the 3D background.

What a beautiful setup to Timmy💚 I love the barbs too it’s so cozy looking in there for him . Great job again 👍🏻

Would recommend putting a little glass/plastic lip by the top back edge of the tank, to prevent timmy from climbing out. Great video and a beautiful practical setup!🤘

i can’t wait to see a Timmy update in a couple weeks to see how he redecorates his tank. i have 2 large slider turtles (separate tanks) and plan to attempt planted tanks for them. seeing MD’s tanks for Timmy have definitely given me some inspiration

What a wonderful environment you built for that sweet little turtle!

What a wonderful upgrade! Congratulations Timmy!

Long MD video on a Tuesday (at work)?? Yes!! Love the setup😍

Gotta say after seeing how you started with the foam I was very worried. But you did a applaudable job for a first time. I think you should have moved the rock work around the base of the 3D background but I hope to see more foam backgrounds from you soon

Stunning, know Timmy and the fish will love it!

Me minding my own business and then this super handsome guy shows up in my recommended. Subscribed.

Doing the Bob Ross....happy little aquarium for Timmy!

I used the same type of foam on my tank & covered it with black sandblasting sand while wet. It looks like black lava rock. Love it.

Oh my gosh! MD, you did a great job scaping Timmy's new home! It looks spectacular! Can't wait to see, in a little bit, how much he loves it too. Nice selection of fish friends you guys selected for him as well. Very pretty. I hope you can get a shot of him basking, though I know it'll be hard, but ya never know, it could happen! 😁 Thanks for sharing this one! Love it!

I've been WAITING for this video! As always, love Timmy and his new home 🐢 so cute to see his little head poke through the plants to check out what you're up to 🥰 my turtle's tank is inspired by you MD, and he absolutely thrives in the naturalist scape. Idk why but crypts really do well with turtles, the ones in my tank have started producing runners! Colby still enjoys watching your vids with me 😅 it must be the accent he likes

Great new build for Timmy!! Boy the beautiful builds this little guy has happily lived in from the beginning. Best build yet for him MD!! 😊👍🏻

Similar to my tank I use a floating feeding ring with suction cup so my turtle nows where the food is and neon tetra which are impossible too catch great contrast against the green plants loving the setup❤

Makes me want a Tiny Turtle so much! Beautiful set up!

I totally knew you were gonna mention Warhammer as soon as you started talking paint. Would love to see you throwing dice!

What a great tank for Timmy! So creative! Thanks MD.

Timmy 's tank looks great! Can't wait for future videos when he is more comfortable and roaming about!

Nice setup, and yeah - for you it IS really different. Really nice to see you shake things up like this. Just a thought, but if you put a GoPro on the tank, you could edit and find when Timmy uses the basking area.

Warhammer D&D used to Paint Those Too When A Kid !!!!👍👍👍

Great idea MD! Put a spy camera on Timmy and give us the highlights of a “Day in the Life” of Timmy.

Increíble canal, ojala en algún momento puedas doblar el idioma a español, gracias por compartirnos todos estos hermosos acuarios

This set up came out well . Neat and lovely 😍

Timmy absolutely loves it! Great work MD!

ティミー、かっこいい水槽を作ってもらってよかったね👏 ティミーが魚たちを見つめる眼差しが美しく愛らしいです。

MALDIVES, my home country glad u mentioned it. Scape looks amazing

Looks great! In the US we have some stuff called drylock and I tint it with concrete stain to achieve the colors I want. You can apply it directly to the foam and forget about the cement step. You may have something comparable across the pond, but I don't know.

Timmy's new home was well worth the wait! It looks absolutely fantastic! You did a great job transforming the back wall, and the basking spot is perfect! Im sure Timmy is feeling right at home 💚🐢

I love you Timmy. Congratulations on your new tank. 🐢🐢

I commented a few days ago about the turtle set up and he delivers 🎉🎉

beautiful tank for Timmy, will be interesting to see it progress

Possibly your best post. Who can't love Timmy !!! (Tanganika Sicklids all day Chiclids) . Loving your channel and posts :)

I just found your channel and I’m loving it!!! 😊

I was feeling blue and tired this evening before watching this video. Thanks for the "too long" (over 30 mins lol) smilefest. I feel much better, as is often the case when I watch your channel. ☺ Timmy's new home is beautiful, thanks for sharing the process, especially the mistakes. We all make them, it matters that you show them with good humour.

What a great build, thank you MD!

Boss, you are Michelangelo of fishtank. Awesome. 👍

Love this tank and Timmy is so cute! He should be very happy in his new tank

Absolutely love Timmy's tank you did an amazing job with the back ground. Would be awesome to see thay back ground in one of the tanks with drift wood and rocks coming out of it. I could sit and watch a 24 hour video of your your amazing to watch. Love from Australia

Thank for inspiration. Lockig forward to se uppdatera.

Always the best part of the week when I see "MD Fish tank..." Pop up on my phone. Beautiful tank as always. My only question is how you're going to get the tank off your work cart and onto it's own stand 🧐

Would love to see your take on a Bioactive reptile terrarium.

I use this technique for my terrariums. I tint the concrete / grout mix in small batches to save the painting step. I’ll also use the spray foam as well as carve insulation foam for a rocky look

YES THAT'S WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT BABY, GO TIMMY!!!

When you said warhammer I think my heart skipped a beat, I love both of this hobby and AoS.

That looks amazing MD. Would love to see you make a wall like that for one of your fish scapes in the future.

I am new with aquarium but I know a lot about ponds. I cannot believe what you can achieve. Very informative video. I got a musk same as Timmy but slightly bigger. Will try to copy your aquarium as much as I can.

Wonderful set up and nice art work! Love this!

Great vid ! Always like to find that the Warhammer hobby people had in there early years come back useful later on in unexpected ways

Love how often I discover new music from the ending b roll on your videos. Also, love the tank and hope Timmy enjoys it

Damn been so excited for this release 😍

I have Odessa barbs and think they are beautiful fish and don't bother my other barbs. Timmy's scape is absolutely gorgeous!! Such a great job MD.🐢🐢

Thank you Bob Ross! Very nice!

Yes finally some Timmy content, TIMMY!!!!

Absolutely amazing tank!! It takes a little (a lot) artistry.

🎉 so excited to see how this turns out!

Nice work on that background! 👍

Am currently laid up with a viral infection and chest infection so watching this has made me feel abit better

Awesome tank! Updates will be awesome to see how it all works

Been watching you for a long time, and you made my little nerd heart happy when you said you used to do Warhammer. You did great and I love how much you care about your charges, and Timmy. Love seeing you do something different too, with this type of tank. Thank you for the vid! Also, one of these days would love to see you collab with @SerpaDesign. Been watching you both and you're kinda similar with the love for everything you do.

LETS GOO TIMMYYY!!

Yep. Total Bob Ross vibes!!! Great job, MD!!! Always giving me inspiration for the next scape. Thank you!!

OH MY GOSH TIMMY LOOKS JUST LIKE MY TURTLE, YURTLE!

You could get a peace of Perspex cut to the size of the inside at the back, and then do it all on the top of that then slide it in the tank when finished

In my opinion as a hobby/warhammer painter , i like painting rocks pretty similar but what i noticed is that pure white dry brush in certain areas really make them pop

Here u go..Great tank md❤
