I have a few nano tanks just sitting around and I love building nano no filter aquariums. So I decided to make one and show you guys how to create something beautiful but simple that can be put anywhere around the house or office.

I shared your video to two of my friends to show them they can stop doing water changes if they set their substrate up better and get more plants. My question is, since I am new to your videos, I have not layered my substrates like you have but I did redo two with the FLuval volcanic gravel. Is that going to be enough? My short plants seem to be estalishing and the stem plants are taking off.. would this work for a filterless system? Second question: Quarantine tanks. I now have a 10 gallon, but its bare and has a bubbler. I suppose I could reset this with proper gravel and make it be a plant grower while it is vacant of fish? Keep it fertilized? It wont have critters in it. How does it keep a biosystem? Love your videos and enthusiasm! I think Im ready now to try cherry shrimp for the third time and this time they will live...
I’m disabled and want a small tank in my large bedside table. This is stunning and I saved it for inspiration.
Good luck with your tank fish tanks are amazing ❤
How did you go, did you get one?
Late reply but I wish you luck!!
A neon light would be great,😅 quake quake
I hope you get one!
Who else binge watched all of md’s vids?
I can not stop watching them 👍
Gone through them 2 different times start to finnish😂
🙋🏽♂️
Yes. As soon as I discovered him... watch everything he ever did. Took a while 😂
Even went over a few more than once.
What sets him apart is his enthusiasm and excitement... he is so much more interesting than others in this field...
Cool to see how everything has changed.
Thanks guys 👍
My wife gets so mad because I freak out whenever I see a new md fishtanks video drop lmao
Mine to....(wait...)
@@MDFishTanks 😂
You’re such a great teacher! Appreciate you taking the time to explain design elements and why some things may not look right and how to fix it. Enjoy these low tech builds.
This was a comprehensive yet simple explanation of what's involved for a successful, no-filter set up.
I just wanna say thank you for doing this. You are the one that inspired me to actually do research and try to give fish the best life they could have! Tomorrow im setting up a tank for a betta fish that should arrive in about 2 weeks, you really are the one that inspired me to try out this new hobby and again, thank you!! 🥹🫶🫶
You must be so excited Betta's are great little fish with their own unique personalities. It will be really fun getting to know the little fella
Same here
@@oftheHowl if you don’t like the channel why do you stay here?
32 comments and none of them positive…
@@jordanausterfield9697 for someone calling people negative your comment has got to be the worst. Karen.
@@jordanausterfield9697 Well said
Love the scapes without wood for inspiration. Basically because I can’t bring myself to spend £20+ on a bit of wood 😂
If you have a river or ocean near you, you can look for wood yourself. Just make sure to boil it multiple times until the water turns clear :)
This is amazing and love the idea of no cleaning and no filter. Thank you going over it so well and the step by step process. It’s now inspired me to create a similar project which me and my 4 year old can do together. She’s very excited
You can watch "father fish" youtube channel .Has some good videos.I also watch his videos as he encourages this types of "almost" self-sutaining ecosystem tanks.
You have inspired me to install a tank in my home. I’m loving it and it working so well!
This video is exactly what ive been searching for over the last 4 months! Thank you!
Perfect timing in posting this video because I am starting my first nano tank and making it self sustainable with tons of plant and shrimp
What a beauty lil tank.
The orange/ red plants look so stunning with that male fish.
Ive got 5 gallon tank I’ve been waiting to scape. This is perfect! I will use this for inspiration ❤
My best tank to date is a heavily planted 6x6x12 (inches) dirted tank. Helped me learn so much.
That Molly and swordtail tank looked totally stunning!
Thank you so much for making this video! I’ve been wanting a no filter nano tank setup for my desk at home.
I am so happy I have found your channel! I used to have two 50's, a 30 and some smaller baby raising tanks, 10's.... but its such a shock to see someone who does the fresh water fish instead of the complications of the salt water tanks.
I love fresh water fish, there is so much variety in them and they are so easy to care for -- but I'm in an apartment now and didn't think I wanted to hassle with tiny tanks, they take more cleaning than a big tank! But you have proven me wrong, this is a great way to do a nano tank, no hassle, no worry, it cleans itself this way.
Now I know that I should concentrate more on the plants and do snail and shrimps for cleaning, and that I don't have to have the heaters and pumps and tank hoods and undergravel filter systems.... and I could have my cardinals or neons or other tiny fish, I miss them sooo much...! and those flame endlers are stunning!
umm.... even if I don't do a tank for a year or so, now I have your channel -- a place to get so many ideas for tiny tanks in the meantime!! I'm gong to be watching your current and your past videos, thanks for so much great information!!
Keep up the hard work MD. Still love watching your content! Can’t wait to see all the things you create in the new studio!😄🐠🐡
No filter nano videos are by far my favorite ❤
Those emerald green rasboras are my favorite. Their coloration is so vibrant, their bars even seem to flicker like an octopus.
Great presentation! Thanks so much for the tips about floating plants, adding the shrimp first, conditioning the water, packing plants in, etc. so much useful info in here. Great job and beautiful, too. Youre an artist.
Great now im obsessed with watching you build these beautiful tanks. Let me binge watch 5 more 😻
so good to see you back on the nano build, takes me back to your garden shed builds 👍👍👍👍👍
Fantastic. But, I love seeing a few minutes video of your completed tanks at the end, as you have done on other scapes. Would you please keep doing this?
Amazing how certain principles of design are used in real life. The use of negative space, repetition, & balance was carefully thought out 🙏
Beautiful. Great details about striking the symbiotic balance.
Never get tired of any beautiful freshwater tropical fish! There's no such thing as "oh no, not more endlers"! Haha
I do a medium thickness substrate layer too. With the right plants, it's quite effective. The way I see it, if it works, then it works.
I am loving all the new builds and love seeing you so happy filling out that beautiful new studio! Incredible tank per usual, even on the small scale compared to all the big builds recently!
Went to Fish street at my city. It is famous for having all sorts of tanks,plants and fish . Bought some filter and came home. Was thinking abt setting up a small tank sometime soon and here i see MD pull up a new video
Another nice tank! And nothing wrong with another Endler tank! I've got 5 tanks ranging from 10g - 75g, and right now my favorite is my 10g office tank with just Endlers of all sizes, snails, and some yellow shrimp. I've been fishkeeping 45 years, since I was about 10. Started with elementary school guppies we got to bring home, then moved on to tetras, cichlids, and what not, and it wasn't until the past year I rediscovered livebearers Your channel helped get me back into them.
Question! How long do they last? Are they indefinite? What’s the maintenance look like? Does the tank need to be redone after a couple months?
Really debating putting a tank in my office. I’m about halfway through my first tank in about 8 years for my private living room and would love a nano tank for my office at work. But… I’m worried I won’t get anything done if I have shrimp to stare at!
Wow
@@tumsfestival8027 Tank has been running almost a year as originally configured! Plants have all filled in nicely. The only endlers I've lost have been jumpers, and only males. I think they chase each other and get too excited. Tank has a glass cover, but they were jumping out the narrow gap between the glass cover and the filter. I put in a baffle a couple months ago that would hopefully deflect them back into the tank, and no jumpers since then. Endlers breed a lot, and so far, the population is self-sustaining and even increasing. Besides daily feeding, the tank takes 20 minutes a week to maintain. 50% water change, rinse the filter media, scrape the glass, and done! I highly recommend an office tank as a good stress reliever!
Try it! If it becomes a big distraction, you can always take it home. I adapted to mine and it doesn't distract me too much. I do like to look at it during a conference call, but it actually helps me focus, since I'm an accountant usually thinking abstract thoughts. @@ethanfay9
I truly enjoy these weekend builds! I watch, then get busy on my own tanks!
"It's just water in there"😄
Love the way you make it look so simple. Thank you md
That is a great-looking little tank
This is amazing
I enjoy your videos, I've learned a lot from you. I have a 55 gallon tank, and since I been watching your videos, my fish tank is boss. ✌🏾
Awesome job MD! It’s bloody gorgeous!
Please put in the plant names in description , that would be really helpful
Very nice and awesome little nano tank. Well done and congratulations.
MD! Brilliant as always. Cant wait for the emerald danio tank!!!
Thank you!! This made so much sense!
Very inspirational thank you MD
Thanks! Learned so much from you!
I thank you so much because you give us the info and web-pages below to see which item is best for us. I've been searching what size stone to buy for my cube tank and here it is, Landen tonwa stones for small tanks. Thank you.
thanks so much for sharing! this small set up is exactly what i was looking for
It's one o'clock and i have to get up sooooo early tomorrow but i can't stop marvelling about your beautiful nano tank and falling deeply in love with it and the fishnerds in the shop 🥰
Best way to wake up on Saturday! MD DROP!
Love small builds! It something ppl with small homes (like me lol) can do!
Living in a tropical country, biggest challenge of having a no tech tank will be keeping water temperature below 30C
Nice work on this one
I’ve been suggesting lobelia for ages ! Such a lovely plant
Awesome video! You are the reason I have this new hobby and I thank you for this 😊
I was on holidays in UK near Wellington so I had to stop at Maidenhead Aquatics to see the shop and the fish tanks you made there. Plus, I'm bring back in France some of your red root floaters 😂😁
im never gonna get mad if u get another variation of endlers love those fish. getting ready to set up a tank for them myself soon
Another beautiful set up as always.
Yes, snails are wonderful!
Love the narrative! ❤😂
I’m thinking about making a nano for my classroom! This is perfect!
looks beautiful, I want to learn about keeping fish and Im glad I found your channel.
Endlers are awesome, but I love love love chili rasboras for nanos. And shrimp, of course! Just a note about the snails...don't put too many in at once in a small tank! I crashed my cycle in one ten gallon by tossing a man's handful of ramshorns...just plop and even with a good filter I got an ammonia spike.
Love. Thank you for doing what you do!
Look at all those empty tanks at the end. Looks like many more projects. Can't wait.
That really turned out nice. I would love to get a few nano tanks so I can practice aquascaping (and get more nano fish, I love little fish).
Watch like 3-10 of you all Videos and I realized I have to go watch literally all of them . What a amazing well set up channel
Beautiful tank! I admit, I didn't care for the look of these rocks, when you first put them in, but after the plants went in, I absolutely love them! Totally changed the look, it did! Shame on me for having doubts, MD! :) I have a regular 5 gallon tank that I didn't know what to do with, as far as decorating that is. Now I know I will be able to do it, and it'll come out beautiful! Thanks for doing this one! Do you happen to have a link to that light you put on it, to demonstrate the build, by any chance?
Md is so good even his rocks are pearling
This nano looks phenominal! The pop of colour from those red plants is really beautiful. I want to get some of the Rotala H'ra myself but I've read it needs CO2 to really thrive and bring out the colours like you have here. Did it do well in this low tech setup?
About a month ago now I did a little tank like this.
I wish I had some floating plants like you have.
The only thing I have was duckweed .😢 it is definitely growing good now
Those owl rocks are so cute.
I love matt's neon sweatshirt.!!!
Looks great. The only thing I would change for a proper LOW-COST TANK is a desk cheapo lamp.
Cheers from Poland U all.
The owl tank is just incredible
Best aquarium channel on CZcams
This is the most beautiful detailed video I have seen on CZcams I had been searching for a good video and this one is sooo chefs kiss!!!
Thanks again for a great little scape.
Sure no cap that intro “wassup beautiful people made my day” 💯
Love it brilliant video MD you get better and better…👍🏻
Hola amigo, te veo feliz como siempre, eso es por que tu corazón está en la acuariofilia; tu empeño es grande y agradecido para muchos que nos hace feliz ese don que tienes en los peces, woow Dios te bendice en tus proyectos 🙏
I enjoy your videos, I've learned a lot from you. I have a 55 gallon tank, and since I been watching your videos, my fish tank is boss.
My brother sets up little nano saltwater tanks with bits of coral growing in them, plus little snails and starfish crawling around.
wow u make it look so easy.... ill keep this in mind thank u
Another great little set up mate 👍🏻
LOVE watching your videos. I would like to begin with a tank like this! Thank You!!
life might be hard but at least theres a new md fish tanks video
When i clean out my nano tanks, i out your video in the background while cleaning up mine.
Tried something similar, got huge biofilm at surface. Added a filter in the end
Fantastic, Just loved it❤❤
I had to go shopping a couple of days ago because….
I got 6 Bosemani Rainbowfish, 6 Blue Tuxedo Platies and a couple of Black Neon Tetras. I’m looking forward to seeing them grow and get their colours.
I could never have an aquarium on my desk. I’d never get anything done.
I would always have a filter and heater even the smallest possible sizes available. I like the lighting apparatus too though it looks a bit short in length!
Could you please do a follow up video to show how this tank is doing now, I am trying to replicate your setup and thinking of buying only one gender species to avoid over breeding. Thanks
I love it! If only I had small bits of the right substrate, and an amazing inventory of wood or rocks. The light appears to be perfect! The Endlers are to die for. Ya did good! It was fun watching it come together. Thanks!
love the videos... and those red root floaters are looking hot!
I am so glad I found your channel. I have a ten gallon with a beta and filter. That’s gonna change for sure. I love this nano tank idea and will be setting up my own as well. I can’t wait. I was taking notes for sure. This tank is gorgeous. I do have a question. I live near a huge lake. Can I use the driftwood from the lake? If so how should I prepare it before use?
Do you have any videos (or recommend any) explaining the benefits of floating plants? I want to try this no filter set up
Great video, I'd love to see a tank with Dwarf Emeralds or Celestial Pearl Danios. In fact it would be amazing to see one of your new big tanks have a huge shoal of them, instead of 10 or so in a Nano tank. Throw in some Badis and you could have a Myanmar lake shore biotype in the making!
TIMMY NEEDS HIS DONE!!! IM SO EXCITED FOR HIS!!
Oh man, after watching this video inam def gonna get myselfnone of these. Great video.
Omg I know this is just a tank video but I learned so much😂😂😂 really good word and keep making videos😊
This was amazing
Looking at your channel make me learn much more about nano tech aquarium.. Im from malaysia and will starting my own nano tech aquarium in a short month.. Really greatfull to see all you video about how to start a nano tech aqurium and still learning from you video on how to maintaining the nano tech.. And already follow up you channel for a while now🇲🇾😁👍keep it up
