PATREON: if you want to support future builds or possible help fund a bigger studio to make more videos, then you can here: / mdfishtanks
yeah so it says 25th in the intro...was going to be uploading tomorrow but finished it last night so screw it...why wait!!! i got it ready early so thought i might as well release lol.
What place did you go to to buy him?
Hi - please could you let me know where i can buy an 80cm aquarium that you ‘ve shown in one of your older videos please?
Hello friend greetings, I hope you can read me, I've always seen your videos since you almost started with your channel and you have very good videos. but he asked me if you could put subtitles in Spanish to your videos since I do not understand what you say and I would like to know what you say in your videos I assure you that I squeezed from my more people in Latin America that we do not speak English we would appreciate it. greetings from Mexico
Love it
Can you tell me name of the intro song? :o
".. now I want one of those.. "
Lol, biggest problem I face when entering any pet store!
My Mom used to say that me going to a pet store, was like an alcoholic going to a bar.... 🤷♀️
Yeah same i started with a 1 turtle then was given a 30 year old turtle then got 3 more turtles then a blue tongue and now im up to 12 (5 turtles, 2 blue tongues, 2 water dragons, 2 snakes and a bearded dragon)
My dad and I cannot go into a pet store without considering buying an animal lmao. My mom has to come with us to talk US pint of buying the animal we want
Same. I only go to petco every so often to get feeding crickets for my tree frogs but when I'm there I just have to look at all the other animals
@@Ratified_inc You could start a petting zoo for amphibians!
The memories for the kids doing stuff like this with their dad are precious. Everything looking great MD and I still miss chocolate when I view the Ranchu tank too .❤
TTTIMMMMMEEHHHYYYYYY!!!!!
MD Fish Tanks good old southpark lol 😂 brilliant video again mate my boy has just finished scapeing his brand new tank he is buzzing about it he would love it if you get time to take a look at how he has done it I just put the video up keep up the good work md #happydays
@@JamesTHEKOIwhisperer123 i'll be able to film it soon!!! when it stops bloody raining haha
MD Fish Tanks get the newt
MD Fish Tanks get the newt
MD Fish Tanks nice one mate he would love that deffo
7:58 “I don’t know why he’s Russian” HAHHAHAAHHAHA that cracked me up
He's Russian cause he's rushin' around 🤣
That Timmy intro. 👌😂
Everyone : timmy is so cute and adorable
Timmy : *WORLD DOMINATION*
Love 🥰 your new ‘Tiny’ 🐢 Timmy.....and yes, he does need that Newt 🦎 buddy.....Pumpkin & Ghost need a Chocolate the 2nd as well....just saying, cuz you’re right the tank looks like it’s missing something
It is great seeing the kids take part in the process :) Thanks for sharing them with us👍🏻 My 2YO son LOVES being involved with our aquarium/vivarium setups and maintenances - start em young.
we have a timmy in the kitchen hes awesome every morning when I go to make he kids breakfast he swims up against the glass waiting for his morning warm lol.
we have two angel fish and guppys with ours and he doesn't bother with them at all.
great video by the way
I think the internet would explode if i put guppies and angels with him haha
@@MDFishTanks iv not had a problem then even still breed like guppies do lol.
your definitely right the internet would go nuts haha.
ppplllllssssssssss. post a vid or a picture i have to see this!
Just a heads up he will need a heat light and a uvb light to avoid MBD and allow him to grow correctly! I love your videos and just want to help
both UVB and heat come from the lamp you see in the video. I've had the turtle for over two months now and he is doing great.
I’m glad he’s doing good thank you for the reply. I love reptiles so just wanted to help out xx I’m from America so the bulbs here look a bit different.
this type of turtle does not bask and does not need UVB light. I've had one for almost 20 years now. They NEVER leave the water. Not all reptiles / turtles are the same. This is why I always recommend musk turtles as best pets.
@@peteanddrake4242 just because they don’t bask doesn’t mean they don’t need uvb. They can still get in while in the water.
Dude just want to let you know your a good father your kids will pass things like this down to their kids it lovely
TIMMMEEHYYY is awesome. I'm sure he loves his tank.
It looks great, good job MD! Keep up the good work.
The axolotl aqua terrarium looks amazing.
PS get those newts they look cool.
....I think it might be happening. Love the idea of a different creature in each tank. Need to do lots of research first as they are new(t) to me.
Yeah do research first, a lot of people forget that when buying an animal. When you do your research first keeping the animal will be easier and a lot more fun.
New(t)... LOL!
@@MDFishTanks ".. new(t).." to you? That's great! Definitely do research on them! To anyone reading: Bringing any new life into your home is not a light subject. It's definitely worth a couple hours of your time.
nice tank but he's gunna climb out the back left corner. Been keeping turtles for 10 years.
How is it like having turtles? I have some tortoises and it's like hell the first time I owned 1. It kept doing stupid stuff and I felt so bad. Now when it gets itself stuck I'm just like, I gotta get out urself buddy. And most of the time they do. Only my sulcata I save sometimes he's just to damn big xD. But my Russians I let figure it out themselves
@@Max-yt6zb what is it like not how is it like
@@Max-yt6zb it's a lot of work, and depending on the species you will need to get a very large enclosure. But it's fun seeing how different their personalities are. I had a few red-eared sliders, one I got as a baby and she acted more like a dog than a turtle. Another one I got from my neighbor who was neglected most of his life, he was aggressive at first. But became just shy towards people later on. Three that were saved from a freeway, one was out going and let you hand feed her, but never pick her up. The other one was scared of almost everything, except his friends. And the last freeway one was shy, but still liked a little attention. Then one of my mom's friends gave her another one, she was also neglected, she was very hyperactive. The last one was a baby my aunt found in her backyard. He was comfortable around people. But didn't get as affectionate as the first one. Probably because the first one was an only child and got spoiled the first few years of her life. Especially because we didn't know handling them was bad, so we even swimmed with her in our kiddie pool when we were kids. We didn't add chlorine to the pool, so she was safe.
@@lahormiga1989 thanks for the response
You’re an idiot. He’s to small
That is one of the most adorable little things I've seen
He's very cute. Making me think about it now. Also it's nice to see the kids are always involved.
Timmmaaayyyhhhh - LOL!!
8 minutes into the video: Timmy has identified you as his mom.
Timmy is so amazing, and all your tanks are looks spectacular ❤️ I have a candy koi half moon betta called Truce, I wasn’t planning on getting a second betta tank setup, but went to the pet store for dog food, ended up saving the most incredible looking half moon betta, forgot to buy the dog food and now I have one of the most beautiful fish I’ve ever seen. The colours changed from a light pink and white, to vivid reds, blues and speckles of white. The transformation was incredible to watch. I must be doing something right ☺️
Iberian ribbed newts are actually qite underrated lol. And they're definitely not "specialist"
My 5 and 7 year old kids went into school today in full on timmay mode after you introduced them to it last night. had me in stitches all morning :D
2:31 does he... have a tattoo? 😂 that's awesome
haha, he's got 6 lol.
Kids love tattoos!
The little cute one just staring, nice baby turtle
I was so confused as to where you'd gotten such a small turtle because, here in the states, it's illegal to sell turtles under 4 inches in length, but it makes sense that you're in the UK!
You can buy turtles under 4 inches if you are a hobbyist and not keeping as a pet. Check Breeders! I just bought three 1 inch southern painted turtles and they are adorable.
@@thomastoler1087 what’s a hobbyist?
@@thomastoler1087 can you tell me which are the smallest turtles as an adult
Omg I remember watching this a while back, but seeing Jakeyy so excited over the basking spot is SOOO CUTE!🥰! I don’t know if I’ve just not seen a video with the wifey but please show her to us!!!! Your kids are so sweet omg!
MD always seems to be more excited bout stuff than the boyz :DD
I’ve recently gotten into fish keeping, and I enjoy your videos. This is the first time I’ve seen your children. I bet they’ve grown a lot in the past three years. Don’t spend so much time with the fish and turtles that you mis time with the kids. One day you will turn around and your oldest son will be 41 like mine. I hope Timmy is still thriving as well. cheers!
Loved you turtle tank mate 👍
Just wanted to take a moment to say how much I love all of your tanks, you’ve inspired me in the remake of my 40gal. Timmy is as cute as a button!!
Just watched this with my 6yo and he was laughing his head off at the Timmy voice 🤣
Did your kids ever do this nursery rhyme:
"I had a tiny turtle,
His name was Tiny Tim,
I put him in the bathtub,
To see if he could swim
He drank up all the water,
He ate a bar of soap,
Any now my tiny turtle,
Has bubbles in his throat,
Bubble bubble bubble,
Bubble bubble bubble,
Bubbllllllllllle....POP!"
Disclaimer: I do not endorse keeping turtles in bathtubs and feeding them soap 🤣🤣
My kiddo loves that song! He's 3 years old & cracks up Everytime!
Wow this takes me back when I first got my turtle how small she was get ready for the tank to be destroyed- plants everywhere and floating etc if you wiggle you fingers above the tank does he respond to it my turtle knows it’s feeding every time I do it she knew it when I got her
This is a great video to teach children. Your Lil ones are adorable , Timmy is very cute.
I am in USA and we don't allow this turtles in to the USA.
I am thrilled to show my Lil ones your video. Thank you.
PS I am with your wife, storing worms etc in freezer...not my cup of tea. Thank you again.
Love your videos so much! I’m recently getting back into the hobby and your approach resonates with me. I’m totally hooked! & your kids are the best!
Timmy is so cute !!!😃
That tank looks so nice. Those turtles will be so happy
love it... nice set set up for timmy's pad
thanks mate....im already thinking of the upgrade lol
Haha caught off guard on the upload. With the cave tank I'd recommend easing off on the ferts, cyanobacteria/ blue green algea spreading like that is a sign of too much nutrients/ phosphorus. Also increase circulation/ aeration if possible, and do a bit of a bigger water change on your next maintenence. You can get treatments but they contain copper, so if you ever want to use the tank for shrimp at some point avoid using them. Timmy is a cute little button. 👍
cheers catherine...i dont actually use ferts on most tanks lol. I always forget!
@@MDFishTanks like me, I use them occasionally when I remember! Try getting a bit more filtration in there and oxygen. Skimmer if you have one will work. It's properly just excess getting caught in the rocks. It's as you say not a major problem. Studios coming along great, you're flying 👍
love your setups. truly beautiful!
Doodles.....🥰🥰. Love Timmy too! So tiny!!!!
Cool video! Your fish are so cool and your tank setups are cool too!!
😊😊
OHMIGOSH. First time I saw hillstream loaches that was my reaction too - "miniature stingrays"!
super cute!!! i love the set up you did to!!!
I think Timmy the Turtle is the longest standing tank you've got.
Great Turtle!!!
I have an actual Russian tortoise named Boris the Blade. Now that you've done the Russian accent for Timmy, I'll always think of him and Boris as being cousins, lol. He's so dang cute I can't stand it! Thank you for another great video.
Cool bananas...it’s Turtle Time 😂💙😁
I love TIIMMEEHHHY!!! He’s so tiny and adorable!!!! 🥰
😂🤣😂 TIMMEHH!!! ... mate you've got to do that every time now, and keep his Russian accent lol.
This is a great little tank MD, I always wanted a turtle and will get one one day, until then I'll live vicariously through you! Haha
I had a musk turtle for a while, he was so adorable. Used to come to the glass and go crazy once he saw his food coming 😂
MD you did it again, amazing video with Timmy. You inspired me to start my channel ❤️ Thank you
Got my sub for being an MDer
Me 44 1 thanks man! I started. Let me know what you think. 🙌🏼
Crimson Nutcase thank you! I appreciate the support 💚
You also got my sub for being MDer, keep up the videos 👍🏼
Fish Anonymous MD inspires all, nice channel by the way.
Awesome setup. Just watch out as they are incredible escape climbing artists.
Thumbs up just cause you buckled that turtle in.
Dude I absolutely love your positive energy! Your videos make me smile and I always learn something new!
Thanks for the laughs and great content! 👍
Hi: Little Turtle Is Cute,But Really Liked The Newt! You Have To Get Him To Go With The Turtle :) Thanks For Sharing :D
I always enjoy the Timmy part 😭😆
Love watching back to when you first got Timmy 🥰
ADDICTED TO YOUR CHANNEL MD🤩
12:42 cracks me up xD
I absolutely love it,its so cute
Very nice set up for your Mississippi musk turtle!
One thing is that turtles, especially musk turtles, are known for being excellent climbers believe it or not.
He can easily get out and fall from drift wood on the left corner. Just put some pieces of acrylic plates on the side or better yet make a pile of rocks and driftwood in the middle of tank.
The kids are so cute love your fam! 😁
beautiful!!!!
Nice u got it own Cool Shed for Fishes
Very cute
Great video! That was so "English" when you said "boys, shall we go put Timmy in the Tank". 😂
Spencer Wells And “can I have a feel?” Heheh
That is the cleanest setup I’ve seen.
YOU BELT UP TIMMY 🤣🤣🤣
Did you get Timmy by trading him with your moustache ?😂
had an accident with the trimmer so went for it lol!
So cute and such a cool setup! definitely would take stacking rocks on top of another into consideration as it makes pockets they can get stuck in. I say this with experience as i had one of mine get his shell wedged in between two rocks underwater and to say the least you can guess what happend... :(
Awesome video!!!! I love turtles!!👍🏼👍🏼 I really like your enthusiasm!!! 🤗
What a huge home for him! He must be loving it!
Bigger than my fkn apt
That turtle is CUTE!!
Awesome, great video as always
sooooo cuuuutttteeeee!!!!!!
Your all way too adorable 💙
Absolutely love him! Like his name too. Your. It's are so sweet.
Love how you use the kids to get what you want ... 😂 have 4 kids and never used to them to purchase koi I want 🤫 haha keep it going mate love seeing someone in the UK on here doing what we all love get your ass down to Wiltshire and sort out my discus tank lol
You're a good Dad.
You need two more turtles 🐢. Then you will have Timmy and The Lords of The Underworld!
I was happy with my planted tank and bowl until I saw this video... now I want a turtle!!!! My husband will soon ban me from watching your videos as it’s becoming an expensive hobby. TIMMAAAAY!
That's the cutest turtle!
Aweee your boys are so adorable
Looks like a Snapping Turtle. The ones in the US, don’t need UV Light and Heatlamps for Shell Development. We had two babies, that were found in the yard, in September, after a late Hurricane came through. We kept them over the Winter, they grew really fast. We released them to a Spring Feed Pond, in the Late Spring.
It's a kind of musk turtle.
Love ur passion for aquatic animals -u have inspired me to restart my passion for this hobby -
Love every video you put out would love for you to do a video on your camera equipment!(:
Looks awesome, smashed it again MD. What’s the sand in the tank
Hey there! Love how you take care of your aquariums and pets, but can you make an update on the turtle please?
I've had one for about an year now and life got really though with it ahah. He is a little interior designer, taking down every plant, filter and rocks we've put it and he is super messy, so we get to change it's water quite frequently - when we tried using a substrate and plants, water has always been cloudy, so we've got a few rocks, but quite small so he always tries to eat them. We also tried using sand, but it was really really small, and the water again got super cloudy on his every movement. So back at my question - could you make an update on how you adjust the aquarium for the turtle as he grows out of it? Thank you so much!
Aww, I'm not sure who is cutest - you're lovely children or Timmy?!! 💗😉
Oh, Cathy! The kids win 💯💯
Why was the turtle sent home in a plastic bag of water? When I get my turtles they were placed in a box or small container. And when turtles are shipped, I usually see them in containers without water. I’m not an expert or anything, just curious on why the store put the turtle in a bag of water
Newts are so cute!!!!
these kids are gonna be the first children to have this many tanks that are actually treated well
Go get that newt!! Timmeyh is so tineyyy ❤️❤️
Nice tank man
MD NATURE is happening!! Hehe :)
Oh shit the beginning caught me off guard and it was hilarious
Hey md, been watching your videos for ages. Love what you do and how clean and crisp all your tanks look. 👍
P. S. You should put about 15 khuli loaches in your rainbow river, it would look epic. I have 10 myself in my 120 litre planted guppy colony and they love chilling out in the drift wood and rocks.
Timmy in, moustache out ;)
lol. accidently went a bit short. good job it grows in days lol.
Timmy is soooooo cute!😊😀
Timmy is totally Russian hahaha ;)
Love your tanks! Thank you for sharing with us!
"Too be fair " haha ,new turtles boss as man dwarf gouraimies those orange and blue would make it pop
He’s an awesome little guy and he’s got the sweetest pad going! Just wondering what are the dimensions of your new studio MD?
