- I may re-record this video, due to my voice being slow at the start and the images not formatting correctly, just a heads up on any commentary...I know this one was rough around the edges... oh and I said "nephew"...I meant "nephew's wife"
The Woman Who Invented The Modern Aquarium - Who Invinted the Aquarium? Jeanne Villepreux Power! The French Seamstress who created the first aquarium, studied countless fish and cephalopods including nautilus, cuttlefish and octopus.
She was a naturalist, a feminist and brilliant mind who invented the glass water box aquarium inm 1832 in Sicily, Italy and then introduced it to the natural history museum in the UK, France, Germany and the world. From saltwater marine fish tanks to freshwater neocaridina and caridina shrimp, to guppies, angel fish, betta, koi, rainbowfish, hours is, discus, catfish. plecos and arrowana... we wouldnt be observing them quite the same without this naturalist's amazing mind and talented skills.

Ohhh thank you for this. Not many people know of this woman. My daughter is going to be studying for her for a come to life museum event. She learned about her inventing the aquarium, and she thinks it's such a neat thing! She's excited 😆 We will be studying this video of yours to help my daughter with her studies! Thank you so much!
Glad it was helpful! We need to make way for all these brilliant women in the hobby and sciences. I wish you and your daughter the very best . Thanks for coming by!
as somewhat as a "fish nerd", i just recently stumbled on your channel and it's right up my alley. My friends say I have a bad habit of explaining the history of things brought up in topics of conversation. lol
Well welcome home, friend! Hahaha
I learn so much from watching any and all of your videos!
Awesome! Thank you!
Fascinating woman! Thank you for this
Sure thing
Thanks for researching this historic time leading to our aquariums 👍👍.
Totally. There's another video about her that has more info and I created 2 or 3 years after this one. If you wanted more details
Excellent history lesson. I love the slide show. More slides please and more history lessons.💚🐡💚
they take more time to create, but Its what I envisioned the whole channel to be like initially. if TH-cam ever monetizes me (I've been due since February, I'll be posting more, because as is, non-monetized videos either get lost in the search engine and become hard to find after a few weeks.)
What an interesting and amazing lady! When my professor said to pick an underappreciated scientist to do a presentation on, I knew right away who I would pick lol... thanks Alex!
Riiiight on! That's awesome to hear! I'd love to see/read or hear about your research. I did a second newer video on her also...since a few sources conflicted on minor details...and it's just a rad story
I’m glad you took the time to share this wonderful content, and thanks for your help. Best regards
Thank you for the comment and for tuning in! I updated this story recently, after reading even more about her life. So you may enjoy the second video about her on this channel as well. Cheers!
Thank you for sharing this information, which otherwise we'd have never known.
So glad you tuned in, in that case! She was an amazing woman / human and her story deserves to be told! Cheers
Great video! Fascinating!
Keep it up!
So glad you enjoyed it
This was great. I really enjoyed learning about her. Thanks for making it and the time it took.
This was an awesome video! I love the historical look at the hobby.
Thanks! Ill be making more most likely...now that im locked down at home behe
It would be so cool if you could write a book about her. This is fascinating stuff!
I plan on putting together a huge book of a ton of the stories that have been on my channel's.
By the way, I made this version years ago and decided to update a new longer and more detailed version of Mrs. Power's story...

Wow thanks for this very informative video! I always hear names like this thrown around but then never look further in to it. Recently found your channel and have really been enjoying some of the content that doesn't exist elsewhere. Thanks again!
thanks! welcome on in...theres a whole history playlist and some longer lectures on plecos, specific plants and also various historical figures. I hope for it to grow enough so that I can justify the time to put more than one historic video out a week, but as of now patreon is my only source of income and Seattle is a pricey city to rent in haha...so I'm always looking for graphic design and illustration work in between videos.
What an amazing woman!
Right?!
Incredible! This should have more views - sharing with my family. Subscribed!
Thank you very much! I think she deserves a lot more attention also! Hehe Welcome to the channel!
You're like the best guy to have on while doing tank maintenance 👍 Great info! Fascinating history! Keep it coming I'll have it all😉
thanks! welcome to the secret history hehe. There are a few playlists of various subjects, if you have a marathon of cleaning to do. hehe take care
Thank you Sensei 🙏 Yes, Many tanks, Much water to change, Hands are like prune. Mind is filled with knowledge like water. Belly with Dr Pepper! 😁
Excellent history lesson. Thank you
why of course. thank you for watching!
This video was awesome! Please do more of these if there is enough interest! I'd love to learn more about the beginnings of the hobby
I plan on it! So glad you enjoyed it
Wow! Great talk. I never even wondered who was the first.
Terrific video. Obscure "women of science" are a bit of a hobby for me but this pathfinder is new to me. Thanks!
thanks, her story is fascinating given the crazy turmoil of the era also. I'm glad you enjoyed it. I may re-record it due to a bit of a slow start verbally and some errors in my words saying "nephew" and not "nephew's wife"...plus she did a bunch of other cool stuff but I kept it mostly about the fish, not her fashion, investing, charity, geology, paleontology and astronomy based accomplishments.
women were MADE obscure.....just remember that one someone makes a stupid crack about feminism..or the Women's Movement
Totally on point! Thank you!
Awesome! I love it when I learn something new:) thank you!
Enjoyed this one alot thanks
thank you, I'm very glad you did! have a great day
facinating video!! love these early origin of aquariums videos. how about a video on 1930 to 1960s aquarium videos and what tech they had access to.
That's in the works....hopefully with Father Fish ...since he literally was buying and selling it back then. I hope to get all the 80 and 90 year old fish keeping stories i can.... I think I should try and let them tell us...but I also have some amazing magazines from the early 1960s ill be sharing bits of
Also thanks for watching! I wish more folks liked these "super fish nerd" Videos
Very interesting history of the aquarium! Thank you! 🙂
Oh awesome! Im so glad people are still discovering these older "super nerdy" , videos of mine! Have a terrific week!
Wow girl power!
Amen!
Amen!
Thank you very much for making this information vid! I learned a lot. This is very interesting! I really enjoyed this and would love to see more!
I want to do a whole series on women who made amazing breakthroughs in the aquarium hobby and science
Another great history video!
glad you dug it
For the algorithm!
.... Found it!
Hehe this may be the older one...ive done 2
Before they made a silicone gel..how she created without it?
Lead and mercury with a bit or tin and zinc mixed in. Similar to stained glass from the middle ages. Also blown glass bowls, pressure fit glasses (only stay up when they're full of water and its pressure.

Dude
I just saw that video with Joey DIY and homeboy just could not handle with his giant ego the fact that you know more history than him and he couldn't even say who the man was that invented aquariums because you're the historian, anyway I enjoyed it but also it was weird
Lol thanks... I mean you could argue several Dutch naturalists or Roman's or Chinese...or even Egyptians first domesticated fish...but the glass box containing a replica of an ecosystem... that idea, is well documented to be her works and publications. Anyhow, glad you enjoyed it. Sorry about the silly drama that led you here though haha
@@Fishtory yeah he got so scared and couldn't even say the ancient people
#KingOfDIYwaswrong
Democracy is a Greek word and it did not come from the Romans at all. But nice video.
oh totally... the idea of representative republic democracy...that's Roman (and Iroquois Confederation of Tribes)...and probably many other tribes... Also I know the Roman's only let a small percentage of men vote... Greece was democracy kind of...but not our form, and yes clearly demos for people and Kratia for power ....I majored in history, anthro and Mediterranean/north African studies, so I either misspoke or just dumbed things down a lot because it's a fish video
Roman's were more republican rather than democratic and as you said they only let a small percentage of the public vote. But the Greek's were more democratic with letting more of their people have an actual say and thus the word comes from them and not the Romans. The Greeks were actually more democratic than our modern systems of democracy are. Also the Romans were more a fascist type system with a dictatorship as well. I too majored in Ancient History. I know this was a fish video and told you nice video and I loved the topic of a woman starting it all. It contrasts against the hobby being male orientated now and shows men that woman had a big influence in it. But thought you would get a lot of Greek people in here protesting about the fact you said where democracy came from that's all. As far as I am concerned and many others democracy came from Greece and not Rome at all. Romans in my perspective were elitist ass's and the Greeks were doing a type of democracy way before them too.
but the Greek democracy was jury duty....elitist men only ...like everyone else....and arguably I like the idea of your average person being forced randomly to be a representative and then step down but soon it ended up the way Rome did... and it's only Athens city state we are speaking of. So yes, it's an English word translated from a french word derived from Roman/ Latin and that was derived from the words I mentioned which are Greek
Yep, more democratic than elitism and compulsory army duty like the Romans. Yes, I am talking about mainly Athens, but the other Greek sub-countries at the time had similar idea's going, except of course the Spartans. Glad you finally gave the Greeks the recognition though. It had to be something to be given words to describe it. But did all that Ancient stuff after I did Art School at the age 13. When I tell people that I got into a top Art School at that age they freak out. But did a lot of life drawing from Roman and Greek and Egyptian statues and can see when the over laps actually happened with ideas. I thought it was very cool. But although people think Egypt was the beginning of it all I also understood about the Sumerian's as well, that I believe the whole Jewish and Christian beliefs are based on. But that may be getting a little to deep for a video about fish tanks. Hahaha
What an amazing woman!
For real! Peasant to royal professor and all during the French revolution
