Just wanted to say hello from the Philippines. I'm almost 60 y.o. already but still new in the Aquarium Hobby. Just proves to show that you can never be too old to learn new things. I love Aquarium Co-Op because you have helped me with so much information in this crucial learning process from a beginner's POV. Not sure if you still have the contest/promo but I do hope I could win in your weekly Care Package.
I feel like having some inverts in your aquarium really helps develop an ecosystem, gets you well on the way to that "very rare or never doing a water changes" system which is always nice to see happening healthfully
Thank you Cory. My hobby has been restoring older cars. This past year with the shut down my Son and I decided to get a 20 Gallon and do a project together. Then we added a 37 g and because I research everything, I found you. You have been an inspiration for us and we enjoy your live and recorded "classes". I just received my first order of sponge filters for the, um 125g. I may be in trouble now I have 3 tanks, but we have successfully seasoned the tank, built a sump and a spray bar using ABS all from your classes. Anyway this is getting long so hello from Murrieta CA.
Inverts are so underrated as a "main feature" of a tank - I love manicuring and watching my "pest" snails and mussel in their planted tank, like a miniature tranquil indoor garden 🥰
I called mine big momma, and had them all in a separate tank as I was breading for puffer food, used to call it big momma's tank, but she's sadly eating algae in heaven now
We have at least 2 (that probably came in on aquarium co-op plants)... we call them the speedies because they move so quickly (compared to the MTS); they have an air bubble in their shell and can float up and down like they are crawling through the water. We love watching them do their mollusk thing.
I love my snails! I have a 75 gal dedicated to snails with a few Platys in it as well. I love your videos Cory, you helped me want to stay in the hobby! Much love and respect.
i just started the hobby about two weeks ago i’ve learned so much from you and have been to the pet store at least 100 times to get what i need after seeing your videos, they’re very informational and appreciate the time you take to make these videos
Facts Victor, I started in this channel 4 months ago with a 6 gallon shrimp tank...now I'm up to 10 tanks of all sizes...Best crash course on the internet.
Why you bothering w/ trips to a pet store? Check out Aquarium Co op's (everything Tested by the master). Read the teviews AND the customer service is supreme!
Sir I live in Houston , I started my first aquarium just last year after watching your videos, I am keeping cherry shrimps, at first had some casualties, but finally thanks to your tips I have my aquarium teaming rather over-populated . Thanks
This is the most informative freshwater invertebrate video I’ve found! So much important information. I really needed to know all this. Great info. Thank you.
Pond snails are the best ! I got them in my aquarium on day 1 and never had regrets. People calling them pests did not take time to observe them long enough. Under the light they display a wide variety of colored stripes. White, yellow, rust, beige orange and all the existing hues of brown. Some have metallic shades like bronze, copper and gold. Each individual is different from the other. They grow fast but also live very fast so you will be under the impression that there are too much from time to time, that's because they have hatched at the same time. One or two weeks after you'll wonder where they're all gone. They only reproduce if there are enough food so you will lnow by their numbers if your tank is dirthy and maybe stop feeding so much. Their eggs and youngs are live food for your fish keeping them healthy and colored. In turn this has a beneficial effect over snails overpopulating since only the lucky will grow fast enough to not be eaten. They are tireless workers, eating all sorts of algaes, fish poop and debris 24/7 you're most guaranteed to have a very low maintenance aquarium with them inside. Their birespiratory system is also usefull to know if your water is oxigenated enough. If it isn't you will see them often float to the surface to get air. They will never hurt live plants working around them and cleaning them with delicacy and attention to detail. They're the best thing I've done to my aquarium(s).
I love the videos, top quality products offered and Cory's forward innovative thinking about the hobby. Makes it more enjoyable and less time consuming or demanding. Keep it up Cory...
I remember my FATHER always kept large tanks.Lots of fish variety. He made it look easy. With all your informative videos ...Which I watch frequently .You have made it Fun for me to try a lot of your suggestions And do it Right.Thank you . Keep it up !
When I eventually give in to MTS, I'd really like to keep one. My current tank is unheated, has a very rocky substrate and is already stocked, but I suspect I'll get a tropical setup at some point and then I'll get one of these guys.
I’ve been a customer for years with you guys. I always enjoy your videos. I move to Florida. The best thing about you guys is your service. You’ve done right by me, so thank you for sharing
I'm currently trying to get rid of them... They may clean but they reproduce super quick and have a big bioload too. And... Well, I lost a molly the other day and when I found her she had snails all over her. 🤦♀️
@@Nishaks15 feed less. An explosion of snails means you are overfeeding, or you have too many plants dying off, or you have too much light generating too much algae. Either feed less food, address the plant melt, or reduce the algae. Or, wait, and the population will eventually hit homeostasis.
Although this is like my first tank, I like them, they're pretty cute and do stuff for me. But wow, I had an staghorn algae outbreak that coated my fine leved stem plants and killed them, and a huge amount of poop created some microscopic cyclops, and hydra came....I dont want to talk about it lol
@@sonofaquack6987 yeah, the hydra can be a pain, although ever since I saw pictures of a friend's pico tank, I wish I had thought to do something similar. She has a dedicated pico hydra tank, and feeds them algea diatoms (green water) so she literally has the freshwater equivalent of 'anemones' waving their tentacles around, cleaning the water column. The photographs she takes are **beautiful**
@@Lazy_Fish_Keeper but do they eat detritus or something? I thought they ate little critters in the water column. Doesn’t really matter, whatever your friend did sounds pretty interesting, first time hearing about wanting it intentionally. Kinda preventing me from having shrimp breeding.
@@sonofaquack6987 I got rid of mine, because they hitchhiked in on some plants that I purchased (unfortunately before I found Aquarium Co-op) for my shrimp tank. Which, coincidentally is how I found Irene (TH-cam video on how to get rid of planaria, another hitchhiker that came on the plant) which is how I found the Aquarium Co-op. Also where I learned (Irene's video on planaria, that is) how to do an alum dip for my plants. I got rid of all the hydra, started a separate planaria tank for kids to use for biology class (I ship them out to different families since the pandemic is keeping kids at home), and my shrimp are thriving! I lost one colony when I got covid, and couldn't properly take care of all the tanks. As soon as I am fully recuperated, I am ordering more shrimp!
Best place to buy plants….anywhere. Mine arrived quickly. And they were spectacularly healthy. Much larger than I expected and are growing beautifully right out of the gate.
Aren't they the best?!? Yes, they have large bio loads BUT they actually have "personalities" and they're so entertaining. I watch mine for hours a week. They're so tame.
Thanks for all your videos. You've helped me get through my first "yeah I'll get a fish in a tank that's an easy pet" back peddle and repair and then into setting up a long term planted tank project. Much appreciated. Too far for a giveaway if it's on still and this counted towards it. Pass :)
@@Alec2cool I have to manually turn it on at the top. I'm on a phone, not a computer. Maybe that's the difference? I just realized that I can't post a screenshot here to show you the cc. On the video, upper right side/top, the cc had a toggle beside it. I slid the toggle, and cc started working.
@@Lazy_Fish_Keeper They are on the bottom for PCs. Perhaps it's a youtube bug. I seem to be only experiencing a lack of CC from Aquarium Coop, More Aquarium Coop, Steenfott Aquatics and Girl Talks Fish, my other subscribed channels are always subtitled. A weirdly specific bug.
Any chance you could cover essential meds and fertilizers and minerals for planted shrimp tanks? I suspect you have done this before, but an all-in-one video would be appreciated ☺
Thank you for all the information that you offer to fish hobbyists. I’m fairly new to the hobby. Only 4 yrs. But, your videos have helped me so much. Especially regarding stocking suggestions. Keeps those videos coming.
still some of the best advice on the web. thanks for being awesome! and ill look into the fiddler crab idea. definitely wanted to play w partial dry habitat for our next tank build
I love your videos !! They are so easy to understand and as a first time aquarist, I am not overwhelmed by the information you give. i even love your foruma which ia simoply amazing !!
I just set up a 55 gallon that has a little land area at one end and then slopes down to full depth at the other end, I have one male and two female fiddler crabs as well as a number of different types of fish. Super fun!
I love my rabbit snail, Trinket, so named because she has a hole in the end of her snail like someone drilled it out to make a necklace out of it. When I saw her first baby I was so proud and was like...awwww! She's had three so far. Gave one to my daughter for her tank, have one in my 10 gallon to grow out in there and help that tank and one still in with mom and my African Clawed Frogs (for some reason they have no interest in my snails...they didn't even eat the mystery snail that died with half his body hanging out of his shell lol). I recently bought a second rabbit snail with a dark body and a white shell end named it Doodad. Trinket has an yellowy/orange body and is dark shelled all the way down. I didn't think I'd love a snail more than the mysteries but these guys have stolen my heart.
I might have watched 40 videos this holiday season. Between Irene and you a normal Cory like myself and you spell it right!!! I appreciate the realistic approach I need straightforward everything.
I love you videos, You are my all time favorite go too when I need to find some thing! Even when I talk to my local stores they know who you are:) Thanks for being you!
I love your channel! You have helped me and my fish out so much!! I got back into the fish hobby in May. Thank you soooo much for all the helpful information! I wish I lived closer so I could come visit your shop!! I live outside of Memphis TN
I agree about the pest snails. I accidentally got some of these from someone I bought moss from. They're doing great in my tank along with my nano fish and so far there haven't been too many.
Wondered why I haven't subscribed up until now. Really thought I did since Ive been watching your videos since I was starting a new aquarium. Thank you for your videos! Always a good watch.
Thanks for the great information. I'm still planning what fish and ground crew to put into my aquarium so this video is really helpful. Now to watch some of your other top fives 😀
I very much enjoy your videos, you are very lucky to have a variety to choose from. Since Covid choosing some of the fish, snails and plants your talk about aren’t available here in Ontario😞. Hopefully in time they will be👍 Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with everyone🌻👍
I really love all your videos. They are soo helpful. Thank you for being so informational. I’m looking forward for more. Thank you thank you thank you.
Nerite snails are really cool I also like your videos you have helped me out with the calcium part I'm getting ready to go to the pet store tomorrow to get a coliseum break and give it to my snails
Thank you, Cory. I appreciate your honesty as to how simple an efficient fish tank can actually be in the end. I now use 100 watt heaters and simple sponge filters. Just amazing!!!

My entire stock died off because I couldn't get home earlier in the lock down I'm cautious about restocking my tank
Love your videos .. from Canada 🇨🇦
What about if we live in Washington State but not close enough to drive to Edmonds?
Snails are cool, man. Just doing snail things all day, everyday. Not in any hurry, but always moving right along.
A giveaway that isn't America only. This is why we love you Cory
Cory just knows stuff we dont! :D
I Agree!
Awesome!
Yes this is why
This is the way
I’m glad pond snails made this list. They’re the tiny heroes of my aquarium.

Are you using the Walstad method?
Or something similar?

Me: Oh!
[looks at the snail]
Me: oh...
It looks more like Alf than a snail
Or an elephant
Or a walrus
It’s mouth looks like male genitalia

Best fish channel on TH-cam, how y’all don’t have over 1 million subscribers already is crazy. I hope you get there soon
Changed my mind on pest snails used to do all I could to get rid of them now I just look at them as part of a more natural looking fishy environment
Singlehandedly leading the charge in expanding the Hobby's reach and accessibility. Keep on keeping on Cory and Co.!
Thoughts of Nerite snails? I love them, true work horses.
I really don’t mind snails in my aquariums at all. They’re part of the ecosystem just as much as the fish are
Same! I have hundreds of red ramshorn snails and they are just as fun as the fish
I just put a couple of nerite snails in each of my tanks because I thought they looked cool in a friend's tank. I'm really enjoying them.
Love this channel, they help defeat boredom in the deer blind.😂😂😂
Haha that’s awesome
This is the most informative freshwater invertebrate video I’ve found! So much important information. I really needed to know all this. Great info. Thank you.
Finally my Blue Velvets are having babies. Struggling with Crystal Blacks, but I will get that down eventually.
I’m slowly starting to accept “pest” snails as friends!
Likewise. Never liked them, but these days I'm chilled with them.
I only hate them in my filters. My tank.. its fine.
@@High_Octane no... I dont do sponges filters. Thanks though
@@americanrebelking8337 no you can use a sponge intake on the filter so they can't get in the filter.

Big fan of Amano Shrimp. I've had a few for a couple years and they're great for algae control. I also have a couple hundred Cherry and Ghost shrimp.
A tank just doesn't feel complete to me unless it has some type of invert.
I agree!
You rarely find fish in the wild that arent near some kind of invert! It just makes sence!
I'd love to add inverts to my tank, but I have a pair of apistogramma borelli opals
facts
Your advice on subjects I'm interested in is always helpful. Thanks!
Every time I want to do something to my tank, I have to watch a video from you first lol
Been very helpful in setting up my new tank and going with a live Scape with cherry shrimp
I love the videos, top quality products offered and Cory's forward innovative thinking about the hobby. Makes it more enjoyable and less time consuming or demanding. Keep it up Cory...
I just started a 40 gallon tank, this channel has been a big help
I love seeing you promote the "pest" snails! I've never understood why some people are so against them.
If they produce enough eggs in like a 10 gallon tank they have a pretry big bioload
I love this channel, its the whole reason I got into keeping fish!
Yeah Corey just oozes kindness, he's such a "no such thing as a dumb question" kinda guy and he gives you confidence to have a go.

Let’s just collectively agree that “pest” snails just be vibing and let them live their best lives in our tank 😔
I love snails. Every tank I set up had snails
Hehehehhe I put in 2 liter and use as feeder heheheheheheheh
@@rattlerboi4034 you gave them a whole 2 liter? 😜

Same. Though... Free snails from big corporate pets hops...
They're not pretty and many people think they eat live plants.
a few snails are great. hundreds of snails are not so great.
Theyre tough to control population.
@@fhqwhgads1670 that just shows too much food available in the aquarium....

I very much enjoy your videos, you are very lucky to have a variety to choose from. Since Covid choosing some of the fish, snails and plants your talk about aren’t available here in Ontario😞. Hopefully in time they will be👍
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with everyone🌻👍
Enjoy all of your information. Helps me to decide what I want in my new aquarium.

Love your videos. They have been very helpful to me. I live in Alaska and as you can imagine it's hard to find aquarium stores.
Loooove this channel! Helping me start my first tank!
Cory just want to say . You have helped me so much . You are the man
Thank you, Cory. I appreciate your honesty as to how simple an efficient fish tank can actually be in the end. I now use 100 watt heaters and simple sponge filters. Just amazing!!!
Thank you for the info

I look more to my aquarium than I watch TV
Thank you for all the information
Love your videos, they’ve been SUCH a big help, as I am new to planted tanks. 🙂
