The DRAMA between me and @MDFishTanks (Letting myself into the studio)

Is MD’s real name top secret? It’s on public record. I swear I saw a pic of him installing a heat pump on the bbc news website. 😂

You guys are both very kind people, and I can see the love between you two. Only people who love you will want to see you succeed too.

The fight started because MD couldn't beat Matt's time on Gran Turismo. This is where it all got heated... LOL

Ha ha, gold!

Two video requests!

1: "My First Fresh Water Ecosystem" A step-by-step beginner tank with plant/animal/rock links and details. Can I walk outside and grab a rock off the ground to use or do you have to use specific rocks that have low iron content (idk, just an example)?

2: "My First Salt Water Ecosystem" A step-by-step beginner tank with plant/animal/rock links and details. I heard salt water tanks are REALLY hard to get started and have been shied away from it. What basic combo do you suggest for someone's very first salt water tank?

Just watched the aquarium specialist slagging u off.. who still believes you have co2 on all your tanks and an army of staff 😂😂😂😂😂😂 he's just made a video on it...I left a comment accordingly 👌🤣🤭🇬🇧🫡

❤❤❤

MD literally is living the dream. I envy both of you and I wish you all the success Matt. I used to love it when MD went down to to the shop and you both scaped a huge tank 👍 I’ve subbed to your channel Matt and looking forward to future vids please keep em coming!

@MDFishtanks a lot of people including me didnt believe that plants can grow this good and fast without co2 or good light but i stand here today in solidarity with you, i have seen wonders in my non co2 tanks, plants growing fast like they are on steroids in just a week from setup, i thought you had some tricks up your sleaves for algae etc but nooo water parameters do play a huge role.I am in S Africa with no test kit at all but just seachem safe and my non co2 tanks are doing wonders. ONE thing i noticed though and this will be different with everyone is that aquasoil is not so good for lowtech tanks, good old dirt is quite the way to go. I have never had a need to add fertz in all my dirted tanks like i had to do with the aquasoil which keeps me on my toes with liquid fertz and root tabs.
My dirted tanks have left me with a lot of excess plants that i dont know what to do with from a full year with a co2 tank with proper aquasoil but failing to get healthy plants.

As of now only difference for me is color. MY non co2 tanks have failed to give me the red colors but the greens are to die for.

Cage match!!!

Save me watching was it md's guy liner or the amount of time he spends in front of his reflection

This feels like some kind of weird break up where it's mutual, you still love each other but need some space! 😂

I love this video from America! I love both of you and I love your friendship! I learn so much from both of you, different things. You each teach me in different ways, and I’m a “father fish” guy!! I watch MD for scaping and you for your knowledge of each fish breed. I have had total success with you guys, father fish, and “Phillips Fish Works “ scuds and micro macro fauna. I have dirted, sand capped, heavy planted, tannins, etc tanks (9). I never test my well/river water and I’m one year into this and have never lost a fish, shrimp, etc. You 4 guys are the best!!! I also love “Tiny Menagerie “ her voice and videos are awesome!! Just wish she wouldn’t go so long between videos ❤️❤️

131k 🤦🤦🤦🤦 sad world and very bored people !!!

Sorry guys, love you both, but there is something so suspect about the whole 'reasoning' you're giving. Doesn't seem genuine at all, more like it just didn't work than anything else.

Real shame it didn't work out but all the best to you both! 🙏

click bait.

It’s funny my electric blue I named Buster. He’s the funniest little guy, I’ll be sitting in my shop and feel like someone is watching me so I look over and sure enough it’s Buster laying there watching me. He follows me everywhere….as far as the tank goes anyway!

Awww. Nobody thought you were hiding anything. Thanks for the "expose"

Omg 😂 I actually believed you for a second until he came in

Beautiful tanks there at MD

If they’re going to this length to deny it, surely there has to be something! 😁

Kept ignoring this video bc I couldn’t bare witnessing another break up lol and how’s the jelly fish 😊

Diplomacy is everything. Nothing wrong when multitasking. It's a blessing in the art of raising fish and sharing knowledge. Great job gents . .

Paradoxically new to aquariums and following both of you, so this was actually a good intro to who you both are, seem like my type of people

I just left @MDFISHTANKS A COMMENT ABOUT you not being in in the video any more I'm glad to see it was really about time an family now I get it your mates an friends but family an your growth of your own channel is time consuming thank for clearing the air I look for to see you an MD collaborations an watching both of your channels your chemistry together is for nominal

you two are my favourite fish keeping channels, definitely got me into fish keeping 😊 I have a 10gal with a female betta and a little school of pygmy cory cats, a shrimp bowl planned, and a 4ft tank I bought that I'm waiting to fill til I'm somewhere a bit more permanent than a rental 😅 it's an incredibly rewarding hobby for me, and I love my fish so much! thank you both for making fish keeping so accessible ☺️

Two of my favorite Tubers, this was great, thanks!!!

Team of cleaners? You mean Amano shrimp?

Lol i had one empty tank...now it has 2 turtles and a few small fish and i got my second one today 😂...

Its wrkn all the way over here in the USA keep filming

Love these fella's, so much knowledge and enjoyment from watching your video's. Matt when is part 2 of your Pond revamp going to be Posted? Can't wait to see the finish product.. 👋👋👋👋👋

i usually skip this bit

You owe MD fish tanks everything.

You should open a brewery. Free co2 and sales on beer🙌

Nice bait title :)

It’s be nice to see a monthly show where you go though with each other what you’ve been up to, what’s changed, new stuff. Podcast type thing but mini tours

My theory is that MD was too much of a control freak to work with and got FSM to do all the donkey work. The lack of videos since this one is a dead giveaway that the split was acrimonious.

I miss this 😢

People talk shit just ignore them they have nothing better to do..
Love to see you two do a build tho 😊

Organic Celtic salt for treatment cured a fantail with fin rott & another with white spot..
works brilliant use a bare hospital tank no food & 20% water change every day then add fresh salt 9 days fantail cured, if my other fish look a bit dodgy they get a 30-40 min Celtic salt bath usually fine after one treatment
Very important not to put food in the hospital tank

This is Awesome! I love it and can listen to this type of conversation all day! Podcast, when is that coming? you both can be at home and just record voices or have a mutual even once month sit down 2 hour chat would be awesome!

Didn’t even realise you two split up

I just want you to know that I completely blame you for my having tanks now. Your fault!

I know my comment is a little late but I just wanted to give you my feedback. So I keep reptiles and do large bio builds. Iv always wanted fish tanks but for whatever reason they always intimidated me even though I build the most intricate bio enclosures 🤷‍♀️. Watching you and MD has completely removed any fears I had. You guys both bring different knowledge to the table but together it's perfect. Of all the aqua scapers and fish keeping chanels I will keep scrolling until I get to Matt and/or MD. I can tell you that you have 100% brought at least 1 person into the hobby who otherwise may not have given it a try. My animal room/art studio is almost done being built and I can't wait to start filling it with tanks. Thank you for your inspiration and knowledge and as long as you guys are around I'll be binge watching all of your videos. I love seeing you guys together but it's also really cool seeing each of your personal creative differences and learning new things from each of you. Wishing you both the best and thank you for showing me how not complicated it really is.❤

Oh it's plants explains the co2 😅

Awesome video Matt n md ,I just created my very own nano tank iffy would like to call it’s a 10gal neons / white clouds .thanks guys I have learned so muchhhhhhh from you .💯
