Man I really have to give you kudos because what you described took a lot of guts to do. A lot of people wouldn’t admit that and a lot of people wouldn’t say that on video. That’s why I like your channel that was truthful and that’s what happens with a lot of people but then again, a lot of people don’t do what you just did thank you for your honesty and I love your channel and I will always like it and watch it. Thank you so much and good luck with your store. I think you’ll do great.

I honestly think your on the right track with your thoughts/methods on quarantining. Ive noticed plants and fish travel in kind of the same way, it stresses them out. Its the same for us when we move houses/jobs/countries, theres always an acclimation process. Wish more fish shops would adopt this approach. Love your stuff as always bro,love from perth

With my Platty’s, I would put a pinch of Salt, for Salt Water tanks, and it seemed to help with any shock! I had the Sail Fin/Moon Fin Black & White Mollies. I would cross breed them, and what was Great, the Pet Store I got them from, would take the Babies back, and I would get my Fish Food for 2 Months! The mixed colors sold faster than the Black or White Mollies. You have me missing doing this!

Australian wholesalers quarantine fish for a minimum of 2 weeks (I say minimum because if they have loss or issues this time extends further), before being signed off by a government appointed quarantine officer with an actual protocol to follow strict guidelines to clear these fish to the market. It's great you're taking some extra time to let them settle, like most store's also do. But like alot of your videos, your bias you're casting to other stores and grandstanding is just sad mate. Grow up.
