[@ZacKenny]

Here from Father Fish! Really loving this channel! Will be watching!

[@LiLsNiPe951]

Shout out to Father Fish! Also here from his channel

[@Lets-scope]

Welcome!

[@nick.9000]

same here!

[@mariannekuzmin9727]

Thank you for showing so beautifully what I strain my eyes to see in my own bioactive aquariums.

[@Lets-scope]

Oh you are more than welcome, i am glad you like it!

[@nurrr2041]

Just saw you on Father fish, and had to subscribe. The effort put in is visible, great content

[@Lets-scope]

Welcome! And thank you, i appreciate it!

[@kurzowy]

Wow, great footage. Nicely written narrative, too

[@Lets-scope]

Thanks you! I appreciate the feedback!

[@agathacathartese7041]

another brilliant video

[@Lets-scope]

Thank you! I put a lot of work into this one, so i am happy to get some feedback :-)

[@vblackwell3347]

It shows, but all of yours that I've seen are fascinating anyway. You don't have to knock yourself out to succeed, but you would exceed! 😊 ​@@Lets-scope

[@AnthonyJunker]

Phenomenal video! As a former ciliatologist, your microscopy is on point! Your story telling and narration is dramatic while still being accurate! I would love for you to do some/more videos on ciliates!

[@Lets-scope]

Thank you, I really appreciate your comment! Ciliates are hard to track in 3d space though, as well as being pretty small for the magnification I can achieve with the gear I use. But a video on ciliates in general is already on my to do list🙂

[@steve-adams]

How do you only have 1.42K subscribers? This was incredible.

[@Lets-scope]

It’s probably a mix of different reasons: no regular uploads, a niche topic and the ai voice are likely most relevant. But I am glad you like my videos and I appreciate your comment!

[@FatherFish]

Wonderful and delightful!!

[@Lets-scope]

Thank you FatherFish, i appreciate your comment!

[@kyletiffanyvance9439]

Amazing cinematography!

[@MandyJane123700]

This is wonderful! The video is amazing, and the narration is really great. I love learning about all the tiny critters.

[@Lets-scope]

I am glad you like it! Looking forward to learning more as well :-)

[@ChronzLight]

Inspirational! So excited to see the future of this channel!!

[@Lets-scope]

Well: me, too! We will see what the future brings, there is a lot to explore!

[@nathansonnen9407]

Father fish sent me here. Staying for the content😊

[@Lets-scope]

Welcome!

[@VsevolodIgorevitch]

Amazing feeling of being present inside the scene!

[@Lets-scope]

I am glad you like it!

[@BusierMold58]

Excited for what you'll show next! 😁

[@Lets-scope]

I'm thinking about making a series about all the different 'pods. So Isopods next maybe? Gastropods? Copepods? There are so many to choose from :-)

[@davidforsyth4073]

Wonderful!

[@Dun123ja]

Danke, für die interessanten Aufnahmen... Super

[@Lets-scope]

Bitteschön 😁

[@scarletamazon3455]

Just found this after it was linked on Tropical Fish forums, incredible job! Absolutely fascinating, brilliant footage and narration, subscribed! Felt like a professionally filmed and narrated documentary, and you're right about how fascinating and useful they are, and of course, the environmental impact of invasive species due to human activity. Thank you so much for this, will be watching your previous videos now as well!

[@Lets-scope]

Thank you! I‘m glad you enjoy my videos!

[@chadgrey6107]

Wow, this is stunning. The quality of these videos brings so much to the hobby. Cant wait to see what's next.

[@Lets-scope]

Thank you!

[@curvingfyre6810]

This is impressive production, you should definitely keep at it

[@Lets-scope]

Thanks, will do!

[@3rdrift]

Great video. Thank you

[@Lets-scope]

You are welcome, glad you liked it!!

[@no-knickers-emma1112]

I thought i was watching the Discovery channel. Amazing footage and narration skills. I'm trying to cut down on my enormous subscription list but you have been added.

[@Lets-scope]

Thanks, but don’t worry - I am on a 2 week-ish schedule right now, so I won’t flood your feed 😉

[@TomBoughton3]

Great job. This channel deserves to grow and grow

[@Lets-scope]

Thank you, Tom! The channel is growing - slow and steady. I am not a very talented promoter lol.

[@scisher3294]

I have a small 150 ml glass jar with River mud, eel grass, and a community of these intriguing little beasties. Thank you for the high quality content and top notch explanation.

[@Lets-scope]

You‘re welcome! I am glad you enjoyed the video I put together🙂

[@deborahjames2854]

I am hoping our schools science classes are teaching about the wonders that are found in all lakes, streams, ponds and oceans. Once again you have captured the unique part of our world we live in.

[@Lets-scope]

I am afraid there are just too many wonders to learn about them all. Soak up what you can from school, and try to find good books for areas of special interest if you want to dive deeper! Stay curious!

[@barriemurdock5376]

This is wonderful. Great narration! 👍

[@Lets-scope]

Thanks!

[@kenrooke9047]

Simply mind blowing. Thanks

[@Lets-scope]

you are welcome!

[@BusierMold58]

You know what I just thought would be cool? A documentary about the predators, prey, and microorganisms within an outdoor compost bin. The kind with ventilation holes so that critters can easily enter and leave it.

[@Lets-scope]

I am kind of focused on pond critters at the moment, but that is a cool idea!

[@BusierMold58]

@@Lets-scope If you wanted to give the compost bin series a title, I actually thought of one I thought would be cool: The Land of Rot.

[@Loja_das_Macroalgas]

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@Lets-scope]

🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@dax8753]

Videos of this quality are why I no longer watch TV

[@iforgetiremember5243]

Great

[@mr.y9669]

Wow amazing video and narration!

[@DZSabre]

from where do you collect your samples? this is amazing.

[@Lets-scope]

I collect in different places: Ponds, streams, lakes. The amphipods can be found especially in streams with fair flow, lower mountain/foothill environments are a good source.

[@Mimzil]

Amazing video! There's something about this narration ... who did it? Or what?

[@Lets-scope]

I write the script myself, but I let my AI slave read it, because I think this style of narration needs a more classic narrator voice (which I don‘t have). I‘m planning to voice some stuff myself, too in the future, like live streams and tech vids but I want to keep this format with the polished narration, as well.

[@Mimzil]

@cope Ahh, okay. I was thinking it might be AI narration but wasn't completely sure - a testament to how rapidly the field is advancing. Which service did you use? I might need it to read bedtime stories to me, hah! 😅

[@Lets-scope]

I am using elevenlabs. But I feed it individual sentences and reroll until I am happy with the result, so it might not perform as well for reading a whole story. But yes, it is pretty good and you get like 2000 characters per month for free…

[@Mimzil]

@@Lets-scope Nice! Can't wait to see what you do for your next production! ☺️

[@glennk.7348]

Now we want a true voice reveal!! 😃 Don’t underestimate the connection with your audience that your unique voice may bring! But the AI is nice too. 🙂

[@FusionDeveloper]

The music is too loud. Music should ALWAYS be quieter than speaking. This video would be much better if the music was half or a quarter of the volume level.

[@Lets-scope]

@@FusionDeveloper yeah, you may be on to something there… This was like the second video I ever edited and my skills as a video (and audio) editor still have a long way to go. I‘ll try my best to get it right in the future…why not subscribe so you don’t miss it if I ever post a perfectly mixed video? ;-)

[@lichphylactery]

Oh who dug out my report card and had a great laugh with everyone

[@Lets-scope]

Would you care to elaborate? I don't get it.

[@NumeroSystem]

Dude. put this stuff on a time lapse and let it run for an hour.

[@Lets-scope]

Maybe I will do some longer videos in the future, not sure about time lapse tho.

[@akashdeb5485]

Why do u have so little subscriber?😢

[@Lets-scope]

Well - I make my videos the way I want them to be, they are not ‘engineered’ for doing well with the youtube algorithm… but the numbers are growing - a few days ago I was at 120 subscribers. I owe that to father fish.
