Me too but I had to go to work. Now it's break and the video is even better because it comes with pizza!

5:21 those are marsilea. basically underwater clover. they are more like hydrocotyl. you can grow them as a carpet or as a bush. they send out rhizomes everywhere and will cover the bottom tank like carpeting plants but you do need to do more trimming to keep individual leaves the same-ish height to make it look like a carpeting plant. i like these because even when they grow into a dense carpet, there is still a lot of swimming space for baby fish/shrimp to swim around underneath the umbrella leaves. that makes marsileas ideal for keeping semi-aggressive fish with smaller fish/shrimp or their fries.

There's an outdoor restaurant in my dad's hometown where they put the dining tables in the river bank. The river is so clean that you can see all the first swimming around your feet. The outdoor setting looks much better than the overstocked, modern-looking cafe in that picture.

The first tank is such a wonder that genuinely has me freaking out. To hand craft that and make it suitable for a fish tank is a huge task and I wish we had more businesses making pieces even half way as decent instead of giant corporations pushing out sharp, potentially poisonous, unsafe decorations. I WANT A SAFE AESTHETIC SUNKEN CITY FOR MY FISH DANG IT

That first tank…wow. I had to give up aquariums but I’m in the terrarium circle, and that sort of look is just how I like my terrariums. Usually plastic decor is a no go but when they look like that. Perfection. I really want to have at least one tank with some shrimp.

Don't worry, Chris. Daddy wasn't eating the eggs! He was taking them to put in his bubble nest that he probably built in the floaters but we couldn't quite see it in the video.

Those are sparkling gourami breeding, they're bubble nesters, just like bettas, and they make a purring sound at each other! I love them

2:27 looked up L128 pleco, the blue phantom...georgeous 6:05 I think the livebearers are in the smaller overflow tank outside the main goldfish/ angelfish tank

Once I was at an eco event at school and we each had a stall to show off our school’s work to help the environment, but one of the schools, the one with a live chicken, also had a little jar with a betta fish and pink gravel. No filter, no heater. When I commented about it, someone from the school said : well you can put it in a bowl. I said : just because u can doesn’t mean you have to! They then walked away. What really made me mad was that it was at an ECO event. 😢

All of my fish stuff for my college tank finally came today. I am so excited to get it all done and ready. And… I know I know.. we all know this. But this channel is literally the best fishy channel ever. Rock on! 🎉

That big fountain tank is a really cool concept but it's so sterile and boring inside, like there's no plants or sand or snails or anything so the fish are just swimming around in really clean water with some rocks. Like you could do anything with that and they went with the single most 'nothing' décor possible.

The Sparkling Gourami (7:20) takes the eggs up to a bubble nest like bettas! I’ve seen mine do it before lol, super cool behavior

Love the tank with the village built in. Very unique!

My Petco betta had tiny fins and after just 2 months blues exploded all over his fins while his body is still orange. Fins are huge since he is a double tail. So satisfying.

One of my female Bettas has one eye. Her name is Cy. She is with another female named Franny in an Endler tank. My other Endler tank has a short spined female Betta who I can't think of a name for. She is translucent so her deformity is visible. She did get stuck in the in-take pre-filter of the hand-on-back, but got herself out when I turned off the filter.

That was the most beautiful Old world China houses is the most beautiful meticulously crafted masterpiece I've ever seen. They made that just to get a feature on your show 👏 👏

i literally learned the diiference between a bristlenose and my common a few years ago on your channel. by then it was too late and i already bought both. i moved my common pleco to a bigger tank and am saving up to get my male bristlenose a better life too. altho he seems pretty content these past years.

Chris you always manage to make my day! I love your content so much I binge stream every fish tank review while waiting for the new upload,because if you I have started and love aquascaping,thank you Chris ❤

The first tank has taken the number one spot for tank goals! I NEED a tank like that!

My partner and I look forward to watching your videos, especially to start our weeks right on Monday mornings ☀️. We had an idea that we wanted to share that we thought would be great for the channel : an advice section to your videos. We’ve been in the hobby for years but still run into questions. Maybe you could incorporate peoples questions on care into your fish tank reviews? We felt they were similarity related topics. It could even be it’s own regular content feature, ask Chris! Advice columns are great and you’ve gathered a great community for this 😇 Just an idea to further the content on the channel. We have been fans for a long time! Keep up the great work, Chris 🐟💓

About a year ago, I saw a video which showed the construction of THIS tank. It was amazing!

I look forward to mondays because of this series!

Oh man, that first tank reminds me of what I've been wanting to do for years. Basically the same type of thing, but with something like a huge 40 gallon long, and a "abandoned city" feeling, with a full city scape like New York, or San Francisco, the buildings broken down and being overtaken by flora and fauna, obvious lake or sea coming up at the bottom to "flood" the city, and then if I could do it properly to account for the husbandry, I wanted to make the top land half able to house a northern alligator lizard. That Is my bucket list dream paludarium and terrarium

Sup Chris thanks for the review . All my gourami are grown except for the three spot shes got a bit left to do . All are fine with each other , sometimes the two male opalnies fight but that's about it . They need a girl each . The angels are the most chill I have ever had I think I just got lucky there lol . The tank is 7 years old , my fire eel was in there since he was a baby and grew up with all the small fish, he never ate any ! He only liked bloodworms and frozen shrimp 😅 I did try other foods bit that's all he would take . I even had Odessa barbs breeding like crazy in there with eel at one point . I miss my eel but 1000ltr is much better for him . HELL YEAH 5/5 my day has been made !!! Thank you .

The village aquascape reminds me of minibricks' dioramas. They do alot of stuff like this, but its always artificial with clear resin instead of water. To see something similar as an aquascape just blows my mind. 10/10.

Finally a current video!😁😁😁♥️♥️♥️♥️thank you!

Great FTR! And for the "pets for a 5 gallon tank", a lot of where I look says that African dwarf frogs only need 3 gallons...so sad, I have 3 of my own happily in a 10 gallon, they move around a lot and need so much more space than a 5 gallon provides. Also, I didn't know that some gourami's can get that big till i read they can reach 1.5 ft! I think I will stick to honey gourami haha!

There was a time I was absolutely convinced I vacuumed my neon tetra up in the middle of the night while I was doing a water change (I think it may have been an emergency water change) and the water was really dark, I remember sifting through the water meticulously before dumping it but it literally disappeared 😮‍💨

7:01 considering thats a gourami, i think its bringing the eggs to the bubble nest like bettas do. But im not sure, i havent googled yet.

Hey Chris, big fan of your vids, I recently just cleaned out my tank and I’m rescaping it right now, only thing is the gravel is rainbow barf mixture, but it still has all of the nutrients in it, what can I do to make it more natural but still keep all of that nutrients

New shipment of ultra rare species (some endangered too) of fish comin into our city! Really excited.. wish us luck, i hope the fish didnt die in transit.

You’re so freaking right 😮that 🐠 tank was amazing 🤩😻! It is phenomenal! 5 out of 5 for me too…..👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

That aquarium diorama belongs in a museum like exhibit.

QOTW: My favourite candy is one I haven't seen in 50 years. When I was a kid our corner store had these square candies that came 2 in a package and they were similar in tast and texture to what Canadians call Rockets and Americans call Smarties, but they weren't exactly the same. I don't even remember the name.

Another banger of an ep, always makes my Tuesdays better, because I live in the future also known as Australia. QOTW: rhubarb and custard lollies. they're a hard candy that have the most delightful flavour combo, not easy to find but that only makes them more special when I can find them. hope you're having an awesome week fish fam!

Dang dude, that looks amazeballs!!!👽🤠 The 1st one

I remember that medaka rice fish have been brought onto the ISS as well.

That tropical tank with goldfish and livebearers in it had all sorts of things wrong with it and all of them had to do with it not being in my house! Betta fish rehab seemed a little "fishy" to me. Recovery from spinal deformity? Not sure about all that. Favorite candy - Sweetarts or Sour Patch Kids.

You can most certainly put a hermit crab in a "5 gallon tank". OP did NOT specify that the tank was an aquarium, which implies that it will be filled with water. You can tell people to "Google it"...it's on them to Google it correctly

I just started accidentally getting into the fish hobby and figuring out through trial and error on natural aquascape, everything’s been great water good fish healthy and lively even able to hunt naturally only problem iv had is keeping my plants from floating up now and then so going to redo it in a few months and just keep moving the floating ones back to hold down areas for now

Smarties (our Canadian version, not American version) and Skittles. I recently tried Haw Flakes, and they are pretty close to joining my ranks of favourites too. 😋

I know they already got medaka to breed in space/there is currently a tank of them on the ISS. So more fish in space seems to be on par. I love my space cadet rice fish.

Hi Chris I love your content and I have a single betta fish in a planted 5 gallon aquarium

watching this while sobbing cuz some1 ik died but istg this makes me feel sm better thank u 💗

That really blows my mind. I love the Asian village!

My favorite candy changes weekly. My 4 year old neon tetra died last week I thought you would be proud considering everyone told me they only live 2 years- anyway off I go to do water changes

Watching his videos always make my day great❤

I've ended up with shrimp in the draining tube XD Just lifted the other end up and flushed his lil butt back into the tank. Totally unconcerned, he just went back to munching things the instant he landed, had me panicking.. then laughing >.>

Hey, I'm interested in getting my first tank and wanted to know if adding a little bit of water from my dad's outdoor pond would be a good way to start cycling The pond has been going strong for like 20 years and has koi in it (in a separate part of the pond are water lice, snails, and plants that the water travels through first since the koi would just eat all of that)

I LOVE Mounds bars The dark chocolate and coconut mix 👌pure perfection

Pretty specific candy for me: it's a form of Easter Egg. Chocolate coated marzipan with a nougat core

I second your statement on the unwanted bettas at the pet stores. After having bad luck with some of the healthier looking ones I’ve been trying to get ones that appear to have damaged fins or birth defects. Even if they end up not living super long in my care due to the conditions they came from before arriving at the store, at least they had a cozy 5g tank with lots of plants, hiding spots, and tannins (driftwood my beloved) for the last bit of their lives instead of living in a cup. Qotw: I’d say anything with chocolate (esp dark chocolate) is what I tend to go for most. Sometimes I’ll try weird and crazy chocolates just for fun too!

So far my current one with a birth defect is doing well! He had a lot of new fin growth that still appears to be growing(?). I can’t tell if he struggles with swimming since his dorsal fin clearly isn’t ever gonna grow in, but it might also be his nerite roommate bullying him. Recently the tank was making a lot of noise and it was because the nerite was on the outtake for water circulation. Since the water flow was messed up he seemed to be struggling a bit :(

Imo the goldfish tank is quite beautiful, lots of aeration and rounded rocks, their colors look vibrant and healthy... ...I'm still worried about the angelfish though

I really like ur videos. They are ameizing, keep up the good work

Oh my god, that first one is life goals. I'd love to be able to reach that level of craftsmanship and skill.

Diorama tank was amazing!

Saw a 25m river scape tank with a real shopping trolly in it.

Absolutely incredible 🤯

Japanese hard soda or peach flavored candies are my favorite

Sparkling gouramis are bubblenest builders. They carry the fertilized eggs to the nest in their mouth like that.

Bro, skittles are crazy good. The blue ones are so hard to find, but they’re so gooood

When I test the water I have all them chemicals in a sink with gloves on and make sure I wash everything after. I’m so paranoid about it and then there’s someone with it on their BED!!!

Honest question. Is my tank overstocked? Have a 22 gallon long boy. 2 comets I won at the carnival. Both are 3 inches currently. (Honestly thought they would die within a week, won them so they could at least live well for their last days. They were skinny, pale orange and not very active. Now they are bright, growing and getting calico colors and very active). 5 blue velvet shrimp. Paradise fish African dwarf frog 4 guppy pairs. Have a filter with ammonia fluval media. A sponge filter, as well as just planted some carpet grass.

Cherry on top of my day, first my new filter arrives and then a new ftr🙌

My first thought was a pump for artificial rain, but lights would look super cool too
