You guys are the perfect Aquascape duo! Love seeing you guys working together!

[jle]

Fish Shop Matt is a perfect cohost. His knowledge of fishes is so complementary to aquascape

[andrew-hffl]

Is this a channel about aquascaping? Yes. Is it a channel about family, and friendship, and the search for joy in this life? Also yes haha

This has got to be one of the best looking malawi tanks I've seen. Most malawi tanks are just 2-3 rocks in the middle of the tank and just open swimming space. But this actually looks like something I would want for myself. Great job!

“I’m excited to see what they going to do actually, probably swim”😂😂 MD just can’t resist having plants. I can tell by your voice tone you’re genuinely happy about having few greens in there. It’s different tank from your usual style, greet job and nice to hear FSM details about the fish.

Hey MD, Charles here... the "MORE is MORE" Guy from Aquashella 😅 and Barry... The Dallas Aquascaping Guys. Thank you so much for the shout out and the compliment. Made my day! Love this new build and love the fish colors. That blinking light will be so fun for a in studio FISH RAVE PARTY. I want an invite LOL. Tell Kate and Matt Howdy from Dallas Texas, USA.

[MandyJane]

I love it when you guys do a build together. So fun to watch, and still learn a lot.

[rayzoarage]

The dynamic duo are at it again with a dynamic set up. Nice choice of fishes too. Great job guys!

[joshs]

I'm so glad Matt said what we were all thinking about the work table :) Hopefully, you won't miss the workspace. Thanks for all of the great content.

The bromance is real between Matt and MD, and I love everything I see. Thank you for the awesome videos!

Your soft water mimics the water where most of the plants we grow come from. I've lived in places with hard water and had tons of algae despite my best efforts and lived in places with soft water where the plants almost always out competed the algae. I now have hard water and the same problems with slower plant growth then my last place with soft water. Your tanks are a living testimony to that fact.

Anthracite is a type of coal (used to be heavily mined in the eastern part of Pennsylvania USA)

Lovely tank, Mbuna are awesome fish! I always had lids on my tanks, and I worry they could jump out quite easily. When you're not making video, I'd definitely drop the water level a bit.

[JessicaMotion]

I'd love to see how Kate would scape and tank and what fish she would choose to go in it!

[PlayfullyPainting]

Been following MD Fishtanks for a long time and loved so many of the setups but this cyiclid tank and scape is my absolute favorite of them all. This video with you and Matt and little of peeks of your wife and daughter was so much fun. This tank though wow its really beautiful.

[amx]

The old African cichlid tank in your previous studio was also great, it's just that you don't enjoy it as much. But this one is absolutely beautiful, with or without the plants, I'm glad you added the buce

[vasacermak]

It's nice to see you try out something a bit different

[pamr.]

Lovely tank and lovely fish! For the palludarium waterfall, look at Serpa designs. Tanner is great at it.

I moved from planted community to a Malawi hardscape only tank and dont regret it at all, the fish been bigger and semi aggressive just make them much more intresting than say a neons and guppies etc just been bigger fish makes them seem more personable, and the colours in the fish are so bright, i just have house plants in pots coming out the top to aid filtration and also it looks cool
