Cory, Don't forget to water your plant 🆘
Cory, when my never clog airstones would start to clog, slowing the bubble flow down, I just take them apart in the garage sink, remove the felt washers, squeeze and rinse the felt washers, put it back together with the plastic washers in between and they work like new, I still have a bunch of the replaceable felt washers that came with those airstones that I haven't needed to use yet. Thanks for great product research and development.
I love all these updates! And your excitement! Every once in awhile it feels like people get less excited or go through waves in the hobby and this video you sound so excited and happy!
You're awesome, Cory... and a snappy dresser!
"...maybe this is super boring.." Not a chance, I could sit all day watching Ladybird (and any aquarium livestock) too. Cory's narration makes it even better. EDIT: Oh I'm so sorry about Ladybird, she was a beauty.
That first half of the video is exactly the content we need more of. Chill videos observing fish do their thing with insightful commentary. No idea how the algorithm would treat those, but I loved it. In those 10 minutes it reminded me why I keep fish. I haven't even had 10 minutes like that with my own fish room in quite a long time. Time for me to get into the fish room and recapture that magic. RIP Ladybird, I know this wasn't meant to be a eulogy, but as her last appearance it's beautiful just to see a day in the life.
I also really appreciate the insight into the never clog airstone development, very cool to see everything that goes into your work. I realized before you even said it that a big chunk of your air stone sales are probably lost from the Easy Flow system. But, I'm sure you decided to release the Easy Flow system when you did, rather than holding off until you sold a bunch of air stones, because ultimately it makes the hobby better. That's what we're here for, hope to help keep your lights on (both business-wise and on my tanks) for years to come. Keep at it Cory!
Your integrity & enthusiasm makes any length video worthy content 👍🏻
Stay well 😌
Appreciate your interaction with the camera.
We never stop learning. Puffer definitely intriguing not boring.
Cheaper to feed a dog and lol. Damn.
Lady Bird is very regal. Love her. Also love that you try to build the best products for the money. It's hard to find honest business to deal with. God Bless!
Nice to see you happy in the fish room again. I thought that Lady Bird looked fantastic when you first walked into the room, almost like a wigglebutt puppy. I also really appreciate the fact that you strive to improve such a variety of products just because you think they should be better. Just wish I had purchased a few more heaters before they were pulled. Your teeth look great and hopefully wincie will have just as good an outcome with her eye. Thanks for the years of entertainment and better products for all of us.
RIP ladybird. ❤
I LOVED getting to spend time with Lady Bird and i LOVE getting to spend time with you in the fish room, my favorite type of videos!
Cory, I love your videos no matter what you show in ti myself. Have about a 100 gallons worth of aquariums and 3 tanks i kind of let them fall to the wayside for a couple years. I am now starting to get back into them with love and passion VS frustration. So I say if R&D falls by the wayside at least still do educational fish videos for us. I appreciate everything you do and the time and work you put into it. I watch many many of them. Thank you, Corey, for what you do.
Thanks for the updates. I have your lights, heaters, sponge filters, lift tubes, and freeze-dried foods. All your branded products have been great. Your dedication to quality is obvious. Best wishes for your doggy.
Sad to watch this after finding out that Ladybird passed. Love your content Corry and your products.
Wincy will be perfectly fine, even if she does have one less eye! She will still be loved and respected❤ I also found the footage of LadyBird munching on clams very soothing, no boredom here! Thanks Cory for all you do!
Videos like theese are the best because they are honest and real. Thank you!
Love seeing you excited!
Aww, I hope her little eye feels better soon. I just bought one of your aquarium lights, and I love it. It feels substantial in hand and I am so glad to have a light that I can adjust in intensity. Congrats on getting your braces off! Your smile looks great. Oh, and I think Ladybird is amazing. I LOVED watching her eat and getting a close up of her "eyebrows."
Always excited for New videos.
Sad the heaters are gone.
But forever a customer and fan.
Literally made an order about an hour ago.
Greetings from Belgium! Thanks for all that you do to keep the hobby alive and modern
So sad to know that this beauty is gone. What an amazing creature. 😢
Looking good cory, both of you getting your teath sorted, never realised just how much work went into a new product. Just wish i didn't live in the uk, your products are not so easy to get hold of over here.
Keep up the good work, loving all your videos 😊
Yay!! No drama FishTube -❤ it!!
Greenhouse shade cloth over the skylights will help a ton. They make it in different grades of shading.
That's a good thought, I hadn't considered shading it from the top side.
@@AquariumCoop Cut it to size and hang it inside to make it easier. If you do not have a greenhouse equipment supplier look on line at Greenhouse Megastore or AM Leonard in OH. They both carry different grades/levels of light blocking shade cloth. I think a 50% would work and not make it too dark but you might need to do some testing. Can your air stone manufacturer do an ultrasonic weld or friction weld of the cap for you?
love these so much, made my week! Congrats on the braces!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I hope you pup gets better soon!
Great video! I don't find feeding fish boring! I love it. Hey! Your choppers look amazing! I remember the day I got my braces off. I'd forgotten how smooth my teeth felt with the braces off!. Enjoy! Love your channel. Thank you.🤗
Neat and also a bit crazy. Love that every day people can still bring stuff to market, all the best
Keep up the good work. Tanks!
Thanks for the update I love watching your videos. Thanks for everything you do
I hope you are (and assume you are) testing the never clog in very hard water. Even your "harder" water at your new place vs the store isn't nearly as hard as the other side of the state. I love your sponge filters but have to clean the plastic holes in the air collar every month or it clogs up for me. I didn't have that problem with the felt disks on the ziss never clogs.
To be clear - I still think the benefits of the easy flow kits are SO worth the extra maintenance! Just would be cool if it was amazing and no extra maintenance :)
I am having the exact same issue. I switched all of mine over to the new style and they are clogging in less than a week. Never had issues using the ziss never clog and standard sponge. Also I noticed about half of the air collars put out alot of bubbles while the other half put out alot less. Definitely think there is a manufacturing issue
@@madcowracing88oh interesting! Are you using the exact same air pump on each sponge filter? Could it be that the output from the pumps are different or that maybe the tank levels are different etc? Air behaves differently in different tanks based off of the depth of the tank the output volume of the pump the length of tubing etc. I don't have any issues with mine doing more or less air except exactly what I anticipate the differences being since I'm using some with the USB air pump and some with the battery backup version which is more powerful.
Well that is odd. My well water is off the charts hard. Kh and Gh can't be fully measured by standard strips and Cory's test strips. I have one of the easy flows in two different tanks and mine never clog. I wonder what the difference between ours is?
Post some pictures on the forum. I'd like to see it as we have tested it in hardwater a bunch. I do see a lot of people getting clogging from debris this happens more often when people make the switch as it's picking up more debris than before, but then settles down after a few cleanings.
She’s beautiful. I love watching them.
Great way to start a Friday 😂
Beautiful smile brother!
Thank you for all your hard work ❤❤❤ this channel , always so informative and thank you for teaching us and taking us along on your journeys thru fish keeping ,you are the best youtube channel on fish hands down Cory ! ❤😊
THANKS for another great video!
daaaw poor pup. i hope she heals up okay💖💖💖
Love listening to your videos while at work!
Please don’t worry about bring boring. For folks like me who will never be privileged to own an incredible fish like Ladybird, it’s fascinating to watch her eat and interact with you. Your videos are always entertaining and educational!
Ladybird! ❤ 😭❤
l'd love your streaming with ladybug 2 hours straight 😂 joy to watch ❤
Another great video!!! Love all the changes to the fish room.
I'm sorry about ladybird Cory, we all loved her , she was a sweet soul and has made many people smile
I was so relaxed while watching lady bird, I love the fish room videos the most
I love the log from Universal Rocks. I used to have one in my tank before I had a heart attack and had to sell all my tanks. I'm back at now, but man I miss my 3D backgrounds and logs.
Awesome Clown Loaches! They are the best, I need more in my life too!
Awesome content 👍👍
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I talk to our betta Bubba all the time :D
Seeing you grab that light reminded me of grabbing a T5 tube out of water a while back. Had a little tingle from that one.
You can have the bottom parts of the new airstone injection molded. This would be the exact same thing out of the material you need and it's a standard hardware part which means the cost is extremely cheap. Zero bonding, no chemicals. The example I can give you is to look at a ziss air stone and the part that is "threaded". Same exactly idea for production and the tools you have can easily be modified to fit this new hardware version.
"Injection molded threaded insert"
Option 2. You have the tool as such that you have enough material to bond with the inserts after the fact, then you can install those as opposed to bonding anything at all.
As a hobbyist, I wouldn't want a bonded air stone in my tank because of the chemicals going into the tank. I would feel so much more comfortable long term with a bonded in insert of some kind and metal Integrated into the tool / injection molding process.
You're also combining two of your molds, less parts, no assembling time, less production errors.
Sending Wincy all the love.
Always appreciate the videos. Definitely going to reach out to ya/customer service about the clogging of the new air collars when using the curved lift tubes. Thought I was the only one having issues until reading others on here. Love and support Aquarium Co-op 100% and have spent alot of money there setting up my fish room. But there is definitely an issue that I never had using the ziss no clogs etc. Also they are not consistent as far as output when brand new like possibly a molding issue. Not being negative just a heads up as possibly other customers experiencing the same and minor adjustments needed to get them dialed in. Thanks for everything you do and offer
So sad, watching this back after the news on Ladybird 😢
Great episode. Thanks! :)
RIP Ladybird
Congratulations,beautiful!
Not sure what plastic you are using for that airstone design, but you may want to consider sonic welding the cap holding the weights in. It would basically vibrate the interface causing it to melt together.
I could watch Ladybird all day! She is amazing!
RIP sweet Ladybird
Love to start saturday morning with coffee and coop.
I'm looking forward to getting your airstones one day, they look great. The partner program is awesome, I've tried a few of your products out from April's Aquarium in Vancouver... I never thought that would be a possibility at one time.
Congratulations on getting the braces off. You are doing great Cory!
I love Ladybird so much she looks like Tow Mator
Or an Aardman character
Great Smile !!!
Team aquarium co-op awesome video Corey love all the content the co-op puts in I really love those clown loches Especially when they get a little bigger, they do some crazy things that’s for sure. The fish room is looking amazing. Love all the tanks. Keep up the great work buddy. Just had an idea instead of using glue or epoxy. Why don’t they just put a little dab of silicone for the air stone that should keep it in place see on the next one
Love watching lady bird swim around and eat. The tanks look awesome even with the algae
Blows my mind that mbu puffers can pass clam shells🤯
Gotta show my 13 year old the silver hatchets in that tank. He has one so far.
So interesting!
Hi can I put rummynose tetras with ranchu goldfish it would be in a 40 gallon tank with the temp at 80 degrees I have a way to feed both at the same time so one species won’t beat the other to food
I’m waiting for that flake food to come out
Sending love and support to you and your sweet pup pup!
Thank you for the excellent content as always.
I was wondering....is there some sort of large snail you could breed to feed Ladybird?
Perhaps trapdoor snails.
Have you tried to see if the cap can be ultrasonic welded or friction welded on???
I'll take 20 of en once they're available lol, love it man!
Those look like the clams that are in every freshwater lake in south Louisiana. We use the shells for driveways and fill
There must be a reason that plated iron was used instead of a stainless like 304 or 316. Assuming materials drive the cost in China vs the labor in America. Cool airstone in any case.
Edit- Beard is looking good buddy!
All my favorite Fishtubers are posting new videos the last few days😁
You got one cool fish room 🤠👽
Corys that hair algae in your blue shrimp tank… holy F. I hate that stuff
honestly that bottom cap is fine i think
Wow Cory where do you get that large bucket of flakes I could get some of those.
Love ❤❤❤❤❤ ladybird please make more videos of her
Is it possible to make it so you can also stack the weighted bases for the air stones? So if you do make a really long one you can also put more weights to balance it.
You'll be able to experiment with calcium supplements for the adult Clown Loaches. After you lost the big ones last time. Maybe it could help .
Last time I saw that many flakes my 3 year old son had accidentally put food into the tank without supervision hehehe
I would love to see a viable substitute for a ziss brine shrimp hatchery air stone that comes with your kit. I have 3 (2 in play at the moment). I already had to disassemble and clean out the air stone. Let me tell you... it was a BEAR to take apart. I am just blessed to have coax pliers that grip without damaging round things because salt clogged both stones and I had to rectify that. I am like this close to just yanking them out entirely. I swapped out original hard tubes that came in kit for much longer ones and I really love that but air stone situation has to be worked out because I figure I can take apart the plastic doo hickey so many times before it quits screwing back together. I do not want to be sacrificing a ziss air stone to the brine shrimp gods so there is that.
Make you air stones magnetic.
Have you looked into powered skylight shades?
Predator-proof and escape-proof would be great.
25:35 How are the capacitors inside the light after it's been stored from use for a period of time?
I have seen people train big puffers to allow tooth trimming.
Are u using a float place door turtle to climb onto to get uv light ?
Are we going to see the coming airstones on this side of the pond?
Hey, anyone who's bought the new lights question, do u think it would hold all my potted plants 🪴 I use the old-school plastic ones and holds them all fine. Its kinda like a shelf. I really appreciate any input. Thank u I did add a small clip on my channel to show anyone that had questions;)😅
Good info as always, and your teeth look great!!😊
Hello Cory I had a question. I have a 55 gal with Cardinal Tetra, 1 female Beta, some cory, oto, and a couple amano shrimp. Tank is heavily planted and Ive been keeping it around 78F as suggested by others. I have been thinking of adding a pair of Bolivian butterfly rams, would that be a bad idea?
i think your worrying too much or focusing too much on the negative comments. Make videos you enjoy making. for me, you could literally do an hour long video of just waiting for lady bird to eat all her clams and i would watch it.
Nice
couldn't they just dye the glue green to match the air diffusers so you don't see it so easily? Or put the weight in from the other side to eliminate that cap
Why not use stainless steel in your airstone? It would probably be cheaper than Chrome and you wouldn't need to worry about sealing it
