FULL SHOP: md-fish-tanks.creator-spring.com
@FishShopMatt and myself set up another tank at the shop. A full on guppy tank. This is an all in one kit aquarium (120L) and is a perfect starter set in my opinion. We went for an island composition using dragon stone with an explosion of plants coming from the top. I hope you like it and give it a go yourself :)

MD you should do the snow white females with the purple queens in a tank so we can see what the babies look like!!! Black corydora trio would be nice in the bottom of this guppy tank.
Yall guppies are so cute
They so awesome and beautiful
Hey I know I'd be really interested in a follow up video I'd like to see the plants and potentially new fish idk if you ended up adding any bottom dwellers/ tank cleaners
Ah a gubby tank, love them, my dad loved these himself, he passed away yesterday morning so this is so relieving to watch, bring memories back and makes me happy 😊
Sorry for your loss
sorry for your loss Joshua and glad I could bring you some happiness
Condolences Joshua. How lovely that these great MD tank videos remind you of your dad. I lost my mom in March, so I know it’s tough. Be well, and take your time to grieve your way…❤️
Sending you love Joshua. ❤️
my condolences brother
I took a long break from fish keeping mainly because of my level of experience and I was quite young and had loads of school work. But now I’m 21 and finished school quite a few years ago your videos are really helping me make great decisions on what style of tank and setup I really want. I’m definitely going full in with a heavy planted tank and lots of small/ medium tropical fish, while taking all your advice throughout your videos my knowledge for fish keeping has skyrocketed.
Cool
I can feel you bro college work killin
Same! I’ve been watching him for 2 years now and honestly I’m enjoying takin my time setting up my tanks because I wanna do it the MD way, the right way 😂 I’ve literally got a shelf full of filters, media, hard scape aqua soil and substrate, last bit I need is the plants, having a hard time trusting ppl online sellin plants and the pet shops here are big chain=trash lol but I wanted to do this quickly but I’m enjoying getting all the pieces set up first. He makes it make so much sense! Big ups to him!
@@QweenKaii Hey there, just got my plants for the latest set up from Buce Plants in LA- arrived in three days, well packed and reasonable prices- good luck!
@@QweenKaii there are a lot of decent online plant outlets, I was sceptical about ordering plants online but I've ordered a lot now from various vendors and they've all turned up perfectly fine
Matt and MD have the best energy together, I wish I had someone I worked and played with so well in this hobby! 🙌🙌
Nothing better than friends being silly together. I always love these videos.
It’s a good day when MD and Matt collab in a video, wonderful scape!
Ive learned that stem plants establish better together. It seems like the roots work together in the soil. Just a small piece of advice for anyone who reads it
You guys should do an episode in Matt's shop when you actually 'purchase' everything. Buy a tank & everything you need to scape it start to finish. Then, actually 'check out' at the cash register to give a general idea of what a fully aquascaped tank costs if you were to buy everything in 1 trip to a shop. Or maybe a 'build off' where each of you get a matching tank & get a set amount of money (maybe $100 or something) to build each of your own tanks.
That is a brilliant idea. 👍🏻💡
Anyone else loving matts hair (this was before it was mentioned 😂)
The two of you are pure comedy! I love when you film together, the hair bit was absolutely hilarious 🤣 😂 This was such a great build. I loved how you could see what was happening in the reflection from the back of the tank, it looked EPIC! Guppies are so pure and wholesome, I love that you kept the tank classy!
My hair looks fabulous!!!
Steady on Matt, you will be getting a Head & Shoulders sponsor soon enough
Not my proudest FAP but I finished
Just come back from visiting Maidenhead absolutely brilliant
I chuckled at Matt’s fluffy hair 😂
Man, I wish my local aquarium supply store was that amazing. Sooooo much to choose from there!!
🤣 I cannot cope with you two, I do genuinely enjoy your videos but its the banter between you guys that nails it
This is in my opinion one of the best looking tanks, the black frames the island and it looks like a photo. Absolutely stunning.
I think this is one of the better ones that you and Matt have done together.
Ya that tank came out amazing, love the exploding out from the back look. Guaranteed to get a lot of customers considering an aquascaped set up instead of plastic decor.
You cannot go wrong with guppies, perfect choice and a colour explosion - wonderful!
I love how you build your fish tank with the rocks and plants and gravel
Thank you MD and thank you Matt for the video! You both make these videos so entertaining and fun. Thx MD for your work and keep it up!
Love guppies so much. They are so colourful and active, as well as being fairly easy to keep and breed one day when I can set up a tank of my own they are definitely what I'll be starting with. Totally going to be using the tips and tricks you've shown on your channel to do it too.
That tank looks incredible. Simple, contrasting, showcasing the fish and the way they swim. Just stunning. Would love to build one like this with you.
Been a fan of the channels for years. You’re very lucky to have such a quality shop to work with. Guppies are my favorite too, my current 20gallon is on the 5th generation.
MD and Matt just to say I love your videos! So much fun to watch. I don’t have any aquariums at home and not planning to do so, but your channel is absolutely my favorite!! Thanks!
Looking forward to seeing the updates on this tank growing out!
Absolutely enjoyable, loved the interaction between you both, the mood, the very instructive comments and advices. It starts with an empty tank and the result is absolutely brilliant!! Mery Xmas to you both and all the staff in Matt's shop 🌲🌟
Love these videos with Mat...so much good energy and so relaxing at the same time. Thank you guys
Love watching you guys calibrate, just purchased a 40g and I am about to start a 32.5 that has been sitting in the box in my basement for 2yrs. Your vids are motivating me again
Those guppies look amazing in the tank. Love the energy between you two. It was also nice to see a net and flow working hard. grin.
2:50 you both look great i like the hair
I love your videos! More collaborations with Matt, please. You two work well together and have a very entertaining banter! Not to mention that your relative expertises are very complementary.
Красивый аквариум +++
so many cool scapes have been created. excited to see all the future ones
Fish shop Matt like a boss
I wish getting to Taunton wasn't a 4 hour journey for me, I'd love to visit the shop and see all these tanks in person and maybe pick up some scaping materials too since all my local stores are fairly lowly stocked in that regard!
Matt has great hair, maybe the best hair. A lot of people are saying it, not me, but I've heard it from a lot of people. Also, his hands are a totally normal size.
Love the tank setup! And guppies are one of my favorite fish. Thank you for doing this, hope to see more like this. It would have been satisfying to se you added 2 small plecos as cleaning crew! Hope for part 2 and lots of follow up’s! 💥🌟
Matts boyband flop is hilarious 😂 I empathise my hair goes fluffy too. The scape is cool, looks clean but with still lots a interest and detail
nice to see you both before Christmas, have a great one guys. Lovely scape again 😍
I do love this tank! It is a real nice mix of guppies. Dragon stone is pretty awesome in a scape, and the wood touches it off nicely. All in all, I really do love this build. Thanks guys, another nice collab! You guys have gotten to work together so well, and yes we do care about the hair discussions! Thanks for the laughs you give us! Merry Christmas you guys!
Wow those guppies and endlers are amazing! In my area you just find your standard guppies and endlers. Matt's shop is truly amazing.
These scapes have changed the aquarium hobby for the better!
I have been binged watching your videos for the last couple weeks and everytime it's an amazing experience. I wish any suppliers near my house were as great as your store. Every store near me is run down, smells bad and has a tendency to have dead fish. You two have such an amazing chemistry wish I had a fun fish friend lol.
Your videos and aquascape techniques I find very relaxing and therapeutic. Great job 👏!
These are cute and pretty guppies. The guppies in the display case look like well-raised healthy and pretty guppy angels. I also like the collaboration between the two. Happy new year 🧖♀️🎄
aaa I love your collabs! I think its very cool anyone near by can go to the store and see the scape by themselves. thanks for the video!!
This is a nice set up. Amazing how much guppies has changed since I got my first tank 54 years ago😊
I am really suprised how beautiful this setup looks like
That is my guppy tank,well almost. Love it. Glad I'm getter better with my aquascaping. Thanks to you MD.
I haven’t even gotten through the whole video and I’m laughing at you making fun of Matt’s hair. Poor Matt!
Looks great 👍 It was awesome to meet you guys when you were filming this 🤩 Go for the 150 Guppies!
Looks so great! (The fishtank, not the hair)🤣
Another gorgeous tank!!!! I absolutely love it!
Every job has a Cheryl
Another great video! Love seeing MD and Matt bantering
You guys make "FISH HEAVENS" 🥰
WOW! This is a really beautiful aquarium. I was looking for inspiration and this is where I found it. Guys, good job!🥰👏👏👏
Guppies are the snoops of the fish world. Gossiping Guppies. They snoop in every little pocket and expanse, checking out corners, then get distracted because two fish are having a spat so they have to go check that out. Its like they greet each fish as they pass and then say, "that's a good corner over there, go check it out..." And then they push out babies and eat them if the little fry swims in front of them. Moms they are not. 😀 I love LOVE tanks with small fish, its so much more colorful and busy than some huge fish where you can only have 3-4 fish for the entire set up! You are killing me with the fish you keep picking, my 50 gallon tank had tons of neons, danos, rasboras, and yes, lots of guppies gossiping.
Such a pretty tank! I had no idea how many beautiful varieties of guppies there are. I would be delighted to have this tank in my home. But, I’m in the US. I’ve been to a few nice fish stores, but yours is the most beautiful I’ve seen. It’s the setup, your rocks, wood and the live plants. I’ve not seen aqua scape aquariums like yours and they’re way above and beyond the tanks with plastic.
I honestly think the Mopani was a great choice. It's always my first choice of wood because it's what's most available and it's very easy to just plop and make it look amazing from every angle.
Another beautiful build, it almost looks like a tentacled monster with its tendrils sort expanding out from the center. I like it!
In my experience as a kid, and meeting other kids with guppy tanks, is also that they are quite fun for the fact that they'll often end up with fry regularly.
Love this videos and all the knowledge you help others learn. I think it would be really cool to do a tank review series, where subscribers send in pictures of their scapes. You can review them, give advice and interact more with your subscribers. Id love to hear your reaction to my tanks!
I have been looking for one good scape to do out of dragon stones along with drift wood and here it is. These guys saved my ass by this wonderful scape .😊❤
very fun, beautiful tank, and gorgeous guppies!
This totally inspired me to do a guppy/tetra 100 litre nano tank! Stunning! Also I’ve never kept guppies before so quite comforting to know they’re too dwellers mainly (I alway worry about oxygen when my fish swim at the top!)
Beautiful tank guys! Love the guppies!
As always a pleasure to watch . Merry Christmas MD and family and allsonthe bearded one matt and his famalams and not forgetting flow if she's in xx
Hi MD, just received one of your hoodies for Christmas. It is now one of my favourites, so soft and comfy just perfect. Keep up the good work ☺️😃
Another great video. Always love to collaboration with Matt. Thanks
Man I just love this work. I love the co2 results, just not sure my wife would love the price of it
Guppies have always been my favorite fish.
API Accu Clear is great stuff. I use it and it works really well. Watching the two of you guys has helped me with my planted aquariums a lot. I’ve had some live plants in the past but I usually had fish that were large and the plants didn’t survive. I love the scaping and trimming. Happy Holidays gents.
I wish we had a store like that here in Oklahoma City. Thanks for a great show. I really think you would enjoy some Synodontis lucipinnis. They are a schooling catfish with a very shark like profile.
I love this tank. I wish I had it in my home. I absolutely love guppies!!
This Guy inspired me to rework my fishtank from the ground up again. :) Not that I’m complaining. I learned so much from him explaining aquarium setup compared to other creators I watched 2 years ago. :)
Matt looks fabulous. Air drying hair is more Eco friendly too.
i watch these for Matt :), what a nice dude! Great chemistry guys
Beautiful fish tanks!
Such a beautiful guppy haven!
Between you and Matt and keeping fish simple, you guys have helped me learn so much of accurate and invaluable info. In total I’ve lost 5 or 6 fish during my first year of fish keeping. I’m glad it’s not higher but I still feel guilty to this day. It’s not like owning a cat or a bird or a dog. They’re whole being is hinged on you taking care of things properly and swiftly. Water parameters, co2, fertilizers and so on all contribute to beautiful tanks but can also kill your fish. So it’s important to try and inhale all the knowledge you can get before starting. Even if you are like me and did research for a few months you’ll still have some issues. Once you get everything dialed in and running itself it feels so rewarding. Sadly I got influenza a 3 days ago and my glofish died. So did one of my new blue shrimps. Idk how the glofish died, she was young, my glofish had babies 6 months ago and that was the offspring. Only thing off was that her fins were nipped and no other fish was that way. So my assumption is that she got bullied by a dwarf puffer. Since I’ve been stuck in my room I’ve been watching the tank closely and haven’t seen any abnormal behavior. So I’m not sure what happened. The water was tested 4 days ago with 0-0-0 on everything.
I loved the look of the tank, so cool!
I was also thinking matt's hair looks lush on this episode 😅😁 absolutely loving all these tank builds. I am only a newbie , been binge watching everyday while home from surgery. Best duo on KZhead
Merry Christmas everyone, just received a Timmy hoodie from my daughter and now I feel ready to take on any aquascaping challenge.
My dream is, when I’m not able to travel any more in my little camper, is to have a large natural tank with plants and guppies.
This tank looks freaking awesome!
i love you guys. always know it will be a happy time with you.
no way, you just released a video doing exactly what I'm doing at home.
Absolutely stunning!!!
Great video. Lovely simple setup.
this tank is beautiful, definitely need a guppy tank now..
I enjoyed this video about ginger beard lightning.
Love it!! I think this is my favourite so far!
This set up is beautiful!!
The two of you are hilarious, keep up the great videos!
In the USA Matt would have the basics of a great style. He'd go to a barber and get a classic cut and beard trim. Great hair color and handsome man.
he already has great style lol. Was just a particularly fluffy day 🤣
Fun video, lol I started my day off watching and smiling. Thank you.😂
Tank came out great!
Another great job MD.
Love all videos... its Guppy heaven 😍
