    This guy is by far my favorite aquarium keeper Ive ever seen. His theory's of water chemistry is amazingly different than what we know as the conventional way. His dedication is unbelievable. He drives across Europe to deliver! His "Dead fish sanctuary" as Ive dubbed it, it friggin awesome and heart warming. This guy just has a whole story. I would def do a follow up with him and pick his brain some more.

      Imma be real with you if you have your tank & it’s predictable you’ve had it for years, I had a SPSLPS and softy tank that I never test and that thing was running for four years I just knew how much it needed & when by how my coral & fish responded I’m probably gonna get a lot of flack for saying this, but there’s a lot of ways to do this hobby that they won’t tell you because they want to make a quick buck

    • @TheMrDarius
      @TheMrDarius 8 місяців тому

      I agree with you. There’s always rhyme and rhythm to the madness if it works. I’m a freshwater guy and have a pond outside. Where I live it’s warm Mediterranean summers so my three 21 inch common plecos thrive in that thing. I don’t use a conventional filter with pads and all that. I, instead, used 3 large planter buckets with no drain holes and added three inch piping through all the bottoms connecting them together. I drilled holes in the piping in each bucket so water can disperse into the buckets. I used basic lava rock from the garden section and used that to plant several elephant ears and whatever else I felt was a good nutrient puller. And filled those in with the lava rock so water can filter through plus establish beneficial bacteria in the pores of the rock. I used a submersible pump that’s around 3100 gph and I gotta say my red eared slider male, my peninsula cooter female, two koi fish, three massive plecos, and minnows are quite happy and healthy while the water is crystal clear

    The fish keeping hobby is changing for the better. We are finally realizing that we can make a mostly all natural ecosystem, with a little bit of technology. It's all about trial and error, and finding the perfect mix of "ingredients", i.e. coral or fish numbers to make it all work as it should. Thank you for interviewing people like this.

He might rescue fish but if he's not isolating them then everybody will get subjected to the illness. I felt like someone needed to secretly do some water testing to find out how we can help him. He's got an awesome facility and beautiful tanks but it's time to sell at least a third? That clown fish that was half bones. Heart breaking.

All appear healthy but my tank is a totallly looking disaster site. I like to clean it up but I just keep topping off the tank with RO due to an anticipated move out of state. For now I'm just keeping it topped off. I never thoungt the fish would last this long, but I glad to see them going so strong!

    This was worthwhile. Also, can't imagine the fish complain about still being alive, getting fed well, having lots of room, etc. But... more important seeing that corals don't have to be kept in pristine water. Corals trump fish in saltwater while fish trump plants in freshwater. Lots of use for both in both situations. Even though corals are lots and lots of animals, they seem more analogous to the plants in freshwater (freshwater dude here). Lapping up the resources that the fish provide. Much like an aquaponic farm. Pretty cool.
