NEW MERCH CLICK HERE: teespring.com/en-GB/stores/md-fish-tanks In this video I challange myself to a rock only aquascape. But more than that, I wanted to create a mountain style aquarium that keeps a sense of scale and perspective. Not easy to do at all but I think the finished look is pleasing.

Great video again, 😊👍x Are the rocks you use in your tanks any special kind? It's just I am making up a new tank for a baby musk turtle and have some little plant parcels made up and I wanted to place some rocks within the tank to pop them in, and wondered if there were any specific kinds I should buy, 😊x Thanks
