Congrats again on "almost" 10 years. Something i came across many many moons ago has stuck with me about fishkeeping. You don't keep fish you keep water, the fish just live in it. It's served me pretty well over the years breeding and enjoying fish.
You look so tired today, great livestream as always. Packed full of useful tidbits.
Just did a full maintenance session for my aquarium while listening to this. I really enjoyed listening to the replays of you live streams.
Cory is extremely knowledgeable and helpful with his information and videos. But I have to chuckle every time he says " it's got what plants need"
I am reminded of the movie Idiocracy, where they are just giving Gatorade to all of their crops and it's the only drink that is sold anywhere. Because " it's got what x needs"
I'm only 43. People have called me g-pa because I have xfinity (comcast) cable, internet and land line... I own & operate 2 companies on handshake deals. Neither of them are online in any way... I'm not on Facebook or any social media except for TH-cam, but that's for the Aquarium Co-op and 'how-to' videos...I diy everything possible...! Also, you pretty much named every reason why I have and will never order from Amazon, never seen their website...!
Two weeks ago I ordered some equipment and things from the CO-OP and I will say I am very pleased with everything. I am very happy that you ship in boxes that fit the material. I am so tired of getting, as an example, a golf ball in a box the size of two shoe boxes. I know that sounds trivial but it really aggravates me. Thanks again Cory.
I wish SEGA would listen to the section about building the store expansion, and then apply that to their game production.
32:33 I see so many paid online courses. Could Aquarium Co-Cop put together a course for 1) new shops with modules about product and marketing and business? This would allow you to make the content once, and allow many people to access the content - yes it’s paid, but if they want the course, and they’re investing into a company they can invest into a course. This method is repeatable and many people could make use of your time. It doesn’t have to be “you” either, it could be curated content from all the Co-Op team. Of course just a random idea - just trying to think of ways Corys time can be better mass replicated. LOVE THE STREAMS!!
I love this channel but I live in the Scottish highlands 😢so no easy green 😮
I keep fathead minnows. They are super cool and come right up to the front when you walk up!
Thanks for covering the information at the beginning of the stream. I'm not half way through the replay yet, but I'm looking forward to hearing some updates.
Continues to be valuable information!
Hi, we appreciate you Cory! You're a good guy. Thanks, Bob and Nichelle Angell ( and Rosa, of course)
Thanks for the information.
Thanks for the opinions.
Good to find an informative fish keeper channel as there are many. I find myself going here most of the time just to learn how to take care on different aquarium setups. Congratulations on 10 years on TH-cam with your channel. Looking forward to start my aquarium in the near future.
I completely agree with the idea of watching nature vs being analytical. I’m an analytical person and I run a garden center. I understand the urge to measure everything to tell you how to care for plants / fish. If you observe nature, those skills will easily translate to other species of what you’re caring for. My employees can quickly walk through a nursery of thousands of plants and from 50’ away point out all the plants that will need water in the next 24 hrs based on the way the plants look and their experience. So many customers want water meters to tell them when to water, and then drown or overwater plants following a meter despite the plants “screaming” at them.
I love your approach to fish keeping.
Unfortunately ive been away fron the Chanel for a while definitely glad this video cane back up in my feed
❤❤❤ thanks
informational video I just watched while playing a game, I love
all the topics you talked about & I'll be back for the next 1.
Merry Christmas.
Love listening to ya as always cory. Always gotta watch the next weekend on my sat morning in Oz. But always watching while I Potter in my fish tanks. Learn so much from u and u make laugh
Funnily enough, I had this exact scenario two weeks ago in my tank. It's a decently seasoned aquarium with no major changes for over 6 months, dosing Easy Green once a week. No algae. I never really have to do a water change, just top offs. But the past 3 months were hectic for me and I didn't do a single water change. I noticed the plants were starting to stagnate and lose leaves. I did a 20% water change just to re-introduce new minerals and within a few days, those same plants had new growth!
I will try to do a water change once a month now or so, as long as it's a regular thing!
I totally agree! Everyone should raise and breed white cloud lol
Cory. All this times, I thought your backdrop is green screen LOL!!
Looking forward to a zip up hoodie!
I would actually prefer to have a full scrolling options for all products at once... So I'll have to play with that search option to do that
Thanks for taking time out of your day to livestream for us
Not related to this livestream, but I love that the login on the website has switched to OTP/email verification code. Much more secure, much easier on customers, and likely easier on your customer service team (if forgotten passwords are a big issue!).
The Hobby BBS hatcher has a use case you may not have considered. For small breeding setups you can limit the number of eggs you add to the hatcher such that you can add eggs every day without having to clean the dish. And since the eggs hatch at different rates, you can harvest multiple times a day. So in the end, you can feed babies throughout the day for about a week without having to clean the dish i.e. far less work than any other hatcher I've come across.
Show the love hit 👍👍👍
Figures go out with the family and it took way to long and missed it!
Yep, grocery store canceled delivery. Went out with family. Same.
Same 😂
I'm only halfway through the video (missed the livestream 😖🤦♀️ ) and I couldn't agree more with everything you're saying. Loving the content and format more and more (but who wouldn't want more Dean, just saying 😉 lol )
Make sure you take care of you and yours and your passion first. That's what got you here and that's what will carry you forward. Both like... for yourself and your business. Amiright? Like, I feel like you know that already. Maybe you just need to hear it, though.
Am I 😶🌫️ right now? Yes. Am I wrong, though? 😅
Gonna go hide. And rewind the video for how long it took me to write this 😅
@@rachaelreczenski7270 agree 💯 percent
Spiralina powder added to your water will make the water nice and green for your brine shrimp so u can keep having nutritional brine shrimp after the first 24 hours. Easiest way to keep green water 😉
Not all of us are tech literate... I would also like to be able to scroll through all your products... I'm never on a computer, I don't own one, so I'm always on my phone and I've heard you say the mobile version is different than the computer version... Thanks for the little 'search hack' to be able to scroll through all products, I'm gonna give that a try...! Thanks for some more great info/content...! Keep up y'alls awesomeness ...!
Love the live videos I got part of it live, but I wasn’t able to finish. I came back to finish it now…… where are you? Are talking about the spreadsheets and the automated systems…. One of the things that I learned from reef therapy was keep things as simple as possible so when you go out of town and you have someone checking your tank for you, you don’t have to give them a thesis project and this really hit home for me because I love gadgets, but I also don’t want to turn my hobby into my job so the more you add to the tank it does turn into more work for you to do and if you do have something go wrong while you’re on vacation enough said…..
Nice

So we already live in the Era of bot written articles? 😂
At this point the only things I look at are three things:
1. Size
2. Temperament
3. Water temperature (and take the result as the center of a loose range)
Every article recycles the "0ppm nitrate" line, and it's laughably false. A large portion (say, ~50%) give wild tank size estimates based on water volume alone instead of footprint, etc.
While being careful to avoid saying that I am a know-it-all and have Infinite Wisdom as far as fish keeping is concerned, I am very glad I'm at the knowledge point that I am. If I was just starting out all of these false points made by the vast majority of fish keeping articles would virtually ruin the hobby for me, and they nearly did. The feeling of not being able to keep the fish I want because I would have to drop $300 on just the aquarium for it is crazy. With very few exceptions, anything you can fit in a 55 gallon you can fit into a 40 breeder easily, and 40B's go on sale more often locally (not a popular size outside of us weirdos).
1000% you should do a live stream with your wife and grandma
Maidenhead aquatics is the fish store where MD fishtanks normally gets his fishes etc. from. Somewhere in the UK I think.
Could you do a show about RO water and how to use Seachem products to prep it for tank use. Equilibrium, alkaline and acid buffers.
1:02:30 I want to monitor the oxygen level in my big fish tank. A company near me have sensors that measure Dissolved Oxygen and other things. The setup starts at $2000. I found one on Amazon for $900. I have a $40 air pump coming tomorrow.
Can you over oxygenate a fish? Good move!
@@lw7238 I do not think so. At the moment I am only pumping normal air. At some point I plan on getting an oxygen separator to pump in almost pure oxygen.
@@jonleiend1381 What could go wrong! HA HA Having electrical next to pure oxygen can be dangerous. Good luck, those oxygen generators can be loud.
@@lw7238 the tanks are currently in the basement and last spring a bunch of the fish died because of low oxygen level in the basement. After that happened I hooked the intake of the air pump to a pipe that goes outside.
@@jonleiend1381 WOW, I have never heard of that. You must have had some very large fish for them to suck the air out of the water. You would think there is a cheaper way of determining dissolved oxygen considering all the technology out there.
I'm not sure what your analytics are, but I will say that I don't like the categories of the website either. I end up going through every single one just to make sure I don't miss something. I would much prefer an "all" category with editable filters for inclusion and exclusion. There have been times when I search things, and I don't find what I'm looking for because the search engine doesn't recognize what I'm looking for. It would know the specific thing that I'm trying to look for, but I only know general phrases to put in.
i wish i didnt stay in SA 😪😪😇wish i could be able to order from your store maby in the fucher?
Ask hole " people that ask , but don't listen
Hey Cory. Did you get the other sad aquarium news from Germany this past week? Other then the tall hotel lobby fish tank desaster. It was anounced that Norbert Zajac, owner of the worlds biggest pet store, did suddenly pass away this last tuesday.
Yeah, I had responded in chat, but maybe you had left by then. I only met him this last year, sad news indeed.
@@AquariumCoop yes, I had to leave early, urgent christmas stuff. I knew that you had met him after your visit to his store. As we all knew his health wasn't the best. But it was very unexpected, even by his family. He was just admitted to hospital the day before. He always seemed so tough. Especially if you'd know the story how he once got poisened by a red lionfish. He often told that story on TV, how he got stung, had to be reanimated three times that night in intensive care unit and then left the hospital the other day to look after his store. He will be missed.
Take good care for yourself Cory.
Does anyone know if small freshwater crabs 🦀 can live in a dirted tank with a nice thick 3 inch cap of sand & if the underwater habitat is sufficient & also if that 3 inch cap of sand 🏝 is enough to keep the crab 🦀 from digging up the soil substrate?
Prime and API false results? First I've heard of this. Any more details folks?
A billion is 1000 million not 100 million.
Corey I love you bro but I can tell just by looking at you you are beat you are tired you look like you need to take a small break don’t worry about us focus on you buddy if you don’t focus on yourself there will be no future
You own a fish store. Why would you have to look to Amazon to find an under gravel filter to fit your tank? Just a thought.
Redundancy
What's the best temperature for a discus tank
well, i did not see it coming but the day is finally arrived that i must pull my sub and end my business with aquarium coop. i do wanna thank you for all the good times but your shipping price almost doubled and i dont know if its just my areal or all areas but going from 5 bucks even to 7.99 is just not justifiable for someone on a budget corey and you have always seemed like descent folks and i wanna trade with yawl boys but i just cant justify 7.99 just to do business with anyone ! i thank you and wish you good luck...i think im gonna cry...
