    !!!!!!! Youre the first one ive seen mention chitons and conches in a video about aquariums. I love mollusks so i am super excited to hear someone talk about these weirdos as something you can have

    I have only shrimps and cleaners in my nano and nice to see, they are allmost all on your list. I love my kegel-fechter-schnecken, or tiger cronch. the german name means cone-fencer-snail. The only cleaner missing is the babylon snail, which fulfills the same role as the tongans. They are so beautiful when they emerge from the sand, showing of their bright orange colours, just to devour what is in their way.

    I LOVE watching your videos! &nbsp;I can tell you genuinely love this hobby and want to ensure everyone understands the ins/outs of setting up a tank. I&apos;ve only been in the reeftank hobby for about 2 years and thoroughly enjoy learning from you! &nbsp;Anytime i come across a roadblock i go straight to your channel to see if you&apos;ve covered it...and 90% of the time you have. Your guidance has helped me get off the struggle bus several times. Thank you for your passion and simplified guidance!

    Your videos are great. &nbsp;Informative, professional and succinct. &nbsp;I got tired of poorly made videos with endless useful chatter where they talk about everything under the sun including their grandmother’s dental care. &nbsp;It’s why I subscribed.

  • @JohnLacey-l9t · 1 year ago

    Love your videos. &nbsp;Very <br>Informative. Been<br>reef keeping for 5 years now. FOWLR for 25years.<br>Just subscribed.

    I’m so glad I just found this channel, just subscribed to a membership that’s how good I think it is! What are your thoughts on horseshoe crabs? :_Member:

    Your content is by far the most in-depth and valuable saltwater aquarium information on YouTube. The audience you attract are exactly the people who want to learn deeply, not just casually watch — and that’s a huge strength. <br><br>I have one suggestion that could seriously grow your channel:<br>When you mention a species, please show the common name + scientific name on screen.<br><br>If we miss the name while listening, all the information that follows becomes useless — because we can’t look it up, research it, or apply it.<br>This is especially true for:<br>• Beginners who don’t yet recognize species by sound or context<br>• International viewers (especially in Europe) where common names are completely different<br><br>Also, adding more images of the animals while you talk about them would massively boost learning, retention, and engagement.<br><br>I know it adds editing time, but this change could easily 10× your reach.<br>Huge respect for what you do — this would make your content unstoppable!

    This is a great video! Thanks for taking the time to explain all these wonderful cleaners. It has helped me to understand better why I need the different ones. I&apos;m gonna order a couple of fuzzy chitons too. My 60 gallon is gonna look great!
