Really nice to see someone who loves Nature.

I see nothing when I go to the beach the water is so clear in Cornwall, there is only one beach by us that has rockpools you see shrimp in them but that's all,fab eal what a find ☺

[@chefrarestones1960]

As always another great and informative video!!! The content you put out is awesome!!! Your wife is beautiful and I would love to see her fossils!!! Thanks for all you do!!!

[@buckyoscare7576]

Just found your channel looking for native uk marine aquariums. What a great surprise. I grew up in penarth and spent so much of my childhood on that beach. Thanks for bringing back some great memories

[@ianspicer3885]

Great video your a learned chap very interesting look forward to next one 👍👍👍

Whelk has become one of my favorite insults towards those people who latch on to others and feed off their life force.

[@MARKSAQUATICS]

🤣👍

[@Nexuhss]

Never thought that watching a Welshman take a stroll on the beach would be so entertaining. I’m really into reef aquariums myself so I see tropical and warm water species all the time but it’s cool to see cold water species. Keep up the great videos!

[@BenDover-ch4pm]

Absolutely love these video's! Keep making them

[@TheCuggsmeister]

Great video, Mark. Really enjoyed it.

[@nospoon4799]

I love that mark puts the rocks back how they were. This is very important.

[@cattfishing]

A little tip from someone who herps (going out looking for reptiles and amphibians etc.) Was for me to lift rocks and logs or tin towards me. And to keep the animal to the side or holding em till you gently let the stone down, then put the animals right back under in the same place so they dont have to look for, build, or fight for a new hide. I absolutely love these videos. This was very entertaining. Tfs!

[@seraph2018]

Great vid Mark ! Always enjoy them!

[@darthcon34]

Love to see the local stuff

[@MARKSAQUATICS]

Thanks for watching.

Always an education watching your videos.

[@benjaminelliott4112]

Lol! I did not expect to hear a very American expression in a video about native British wildlife--"dug in like an Alabama tick"--LOL!!! Great video, Mark; you were obviously having a super fun time!

[@rickardrocks2160]

this video was very satisfying, remembering the days of the youth and the fun thing su find by the sea

[@MARKSAQUATICS]

Thanks for watching.

[@marcuswhitmore6622]

Really interesting video Mark, been looking forward to this. Loving this project. 😊

[@High_Lord_Of_Terra]

Love the South Wales coast from Chepstow up to Swansea. Its not postcard beautiful but the nature is stunning. Grew up fishing from the Newport coast and out in the channel after rays. The Welsh countryside just saved me a ton on rocks and wood as I can just get what I want from the field out the back. Beautiful sun bleached beech and some gorgeous sandstones from the stream.

[@AlfieM-White]

Keep up the great content mark. I live in a really small coastal village in Scotland and always used to find some really cool species in my rock pools

[@ljcooper-cornell59]

Your channel was recommend to me by a guy at Maidenhead aquatics while he fished me out some Indian puffer fish, I’ll be trying your tips on breeding. I love your channel, best wishes.

[@mariaz9538]

Hello Mark and Mrs. Mark. Loved the vid. Thank you for taking us along. Looking forward to seeing all the little treasures you brought home settled in your tank. Stay safe 👍

[@davesmittie68]

Super entertaining Mark! Love when you go foraging bro! Your videos are awesome!

[@MARKSAQUATICS]

Thanks for watching Dave.

[@stevenbisset4491]

can't wait to see the native marine tank mark , good stuff.

[@anthonylarge5725]

Another great video by a great aquarist Mark dude :) no better place than the shore. As an angler myself it's always important to take home any discarded/found line and cut it up, helps to keep the beaches clean and healthy 👍🏻

[@High_Lord_Of_Terra]

That conger was like "Oh butt! I'm tryin to evolve by yer!"

[@mikekayanderson408]

Interesting - glad you were there to get the eel back into the sea and save it from the seagulls!!!! Look forward to seeing all your "finds" in the tank!

[@rickrodriguez6675]

Brilliant video mark :) I’ve loved going rock pooling anytime I’m near the coast can’t wait to see how you get on with the local aquarium! Hopefully you’ll take us on more of these excursions too :)

Yes the time of year I've been waiting for to see you head down to the beach again

Hi Mark these are all non-native oysters. You can recognise the native oyster as it’s much rounder and doesn’t usually attached to rock.

[@MARKSAQUATICS]

Thanks Richard. 😀👍

[@davegriggs3863]

It would be really interesting to take a couple of the barnacle covered oysters and that whelk and watch it clean the barnacles off of them.

[@MARKSAQUATICS]

Good idea but their fused to the rock and you can't remove them. Thanks for watching.

Nice vid bruv. I live just outside London but am moving to Walton on the Naze soon. Can't wait to set up a native tank. 👍

That waters clearer than the bahamas mate, you could actually see the fish when it was in the water! You should have a look at the east coast if you think that's dirty water!

[@Ravan_Caw]

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@raven7zz]

Loving these videos, as always. Two years ago caught a 1'' goby and brought him home. Now he is nearly 4'' and take pride of place in my living room, but he needs a new, bigger clean up crew after eating the others. Can you talk about how you will look after and feed yours. I'm always looking to improve. thanks.

[@MARKSAQUATICS]

New video coming today all on the new setup 😀👍

[@deonbell8334]

Cool! Love your videos mark :D Will you ever do a video on polycultures though? (Multiple live foods in a culture, like blackworms, scuds, and moina for example?)

[@aeon90q1]

this is really interesting. There is not so many documentaries about the atlantic tide zones. I guess they assume we all know about it already.

[@MARKSAQUATICS]

There's going to be a lot more throughout the summer.😀👍

is there anything on our coast seaweed for example that could cope in a normal reef aquarium?

In the summer rock pools get very warm. Lettuce and gut weed might stay alive but I've never tried it before.

Just looked up your location on Google's Satellite map... looks kile a great place to forage.
