My AFRICAN CICHLIDS for *NEW* AQUARIUM ARRIVED!!

[@paulcuffaro]

These FISH are BEAUTIFUL!!!

[@blozzza9911]

Hi Paul, how r u? And Gary still needs a gf 😂

[@alrfuzion6483]

Hey Paul

[@dierks-caspers8176]

True

[@willmoffat8419]

Ooo

[@zacharymazanowski7094]

Take us to see spot please!

[@aquaterraexoticpets]

The whole pond needs to be sand for a stingray. That rock is way too sharp. My stingray cut himself on the a few pebbles in the tank. Couldn’t I imagine with that sharp slate. That also means you can’t just put sand over it. You need to take all the rocks out. I know it stinks but you’ll need it. But love the videos man! Keep it up!

[@paulcuffaro]

If I get them I’ll be sure to get em after we switch to full sand, thanks for the info:)

[@aquaterraexoticpets]

@@paulcuffaro of course Paul! There really cool fish and they are very active and curious. They also have a personality too! 😂 also pay close attention with the other fish because they are very sensitive! And have a large target for nipping!

[@aarguellez1803]

I'm glad u said " u can't just put sand over the rocks u have to take it all out" cause it sounds like something he would do 💀 I think he should put em in another tank I'm not a pro or Know much about fish but I remember that he took out that other fish the Bristlenose plecos and I just feel like the stingray would do the same and he'd have to take them out anyway

[@itsbenjamin3191]

Could you do mostly sand a Little Rock, just because they are both really cool and I think they look better together than separate

[@gabeorguss2842]

hay Paul I just wanted to let you know that you were one of the main reasons that I started keeping fish your an inspiration man keep it up

[@tia3712]

I definitely think the sand looks better as it makes the fish “pop” compared to the black rock 🤍, keep up the great videos 😊🤍

[@nikzad3054]

Does everybody have to finish their comment by saying keep up the good work

[@OnlyMotivatingPeople]

Facts

[@calebens6885]

I like the sand with the rock subtlety poking out randomly.

[@bsuch9519]

The sand in the pond is beautiful! Definitely think you should change it all!

[@HarryPotter-nq1md]

I agree

[@izharalam8197]

Agree because fish are more noticeable and brighter in sand

[@ivxiez]

Well except albinos

[@MyBackyardScience]

Hey Paul! The sand looks so much better in your pond. You can really see the fish great now!

[@savethefinz7381]

[@savethefinz7381]

Thanks pc

[@rosschandler6657]

Id definitely go for sand! Just be careful using play sand...I lost all my fish during a water change when gas pockets were released from under the sand! If you put it on top of the slate rock tho instead of removing that first I think it should stop the sand from compacting too much 🤞🙌

[@williammyers4108]

The sand looks so good, I think you should at least make the pond half and half

[@merxs6989]

Yea

[@rashidinsahiyal9136]

It will look absolutely amazing

[@Jojo-nv5mu]

Yea

[@petervang4057]

Agreed. Half sand and half stone would look very nice. 👍

[@paulcuffaro]

That would be cool!

[@esmariduplessis8360]

Sand looks better in the pond. It lets the fish pop so much more, but the sand with the rocks also looks sick. Those fish are for sure beautiful!

[@daniellelevac1466]

Always already know the videos gonna be a banger 💁‍♀️

[@shelleyennis4489]

I'd say sand with a bit of rock. 😊🇨🇦 The new tank looks great.

[@bobrossisamazing3097]

Hi love you Paul and whoever is reading this have a AWESOME day/night and god please bless you

[@RPBaseball_14]

Add sand with the rocks. It will be cool and natural looking to see the sand with the nice sized rocks poking out

[@vanessacastillo-roman9035]

Paul saying no-one cares to see me. Yh we do ❤️

[@paulcuffaro]

♥️♥️

[@laughingmatterband]

If you do all sand in the pond do POOL FILTER SAND it’s so much better for fish and visibility

[@shelbybrowne5800]

i always click on the notification before reading the title because you already know it’s gonna be a banger😎

[@bassfishing1237]

This is going to be a banger

[@bassfishing1237]

@Andrew Rahaman It means great or good so it’s like saying, “This video is going to be great!”

[@Shane_Reynolds85]

Put sand in the flower horn tank as well, please. Tractor Supply carries a blasting media that is a black sand, great for aquariums and cheap! BlackDiamond medium grit.

[@flyingsilverhorse6738]

Oh no if I don’t hit the bell Gary will bite me. I better hit it right now!

[@paulcuffaro]

Yesss🤣😳

oh gosh better do it 💀😭

[@tvm-manducktv8375]

Please see my KZbin🥰

[@lukedragonetti2257]

Fluval lights are amazing! Also I would give the sand in the pond a few weeks personally to see if it turns more green with algae. Loving the rocks right now, but if the sand stays white it would look bomb

[@jaydengardner5093]

I love paul’s videos just like I love African cichlids a lot!!!!!❤️🐠🐟

[@jaydengardner5093]

Paul are you going to bring back positive comment shoutout

[@angeldejesus3818]

I have the same fluval aquasky ligth for my saltwater tank and it works wonderful I also have a African chichild tank (80 gallons) and I wanted to make mine look natural like your but planted with all kind of plants

[@MacZig6]

Thanks Adam for helping Paul out! And Thanks Paul for sharing your farm & animals lives with The Cuffaro Fam!! Your Fan From Texas, Mac 🐐🐐🐓🐓🦆🦆🦢🦃🦃🐖🐖🐃🐃🐈🐕🐀🐟🐠🐢🐢🐌🖐😎🤳

[@lydiaeddins2083]

I like the mix of textures just the way it is. Some rock, some sand.

[@Berner_87]

Haven’t watched the vid but I know it’s gonna be good!

[@ashleighcroissant7653]

I think the rock and sand mixed together would look cool and if they kick up the sand a bit there's rock underneath and if not rock under all you could have "nesting spots"

[@ruupnix569]

When he said “rock” and “sand” I was singing “roxanne”

[@quinnplaysguitar]

ok

[@sophiazubek7224]

DUDE GENUIS

[@kennerhricker7664]

Paul is the best youtuber and the fish are really pretty and the ducks are getting big.

[@maisamj.5633]

You should probably do a mix of sand and rock in the pond, also love the videos.

[@paramchittora8629]

Holy moli, that was my favourite video yet on this channel 😍, I've been watching your videos from 4 years now and still loving every single one of them, Keep doing your great work Paul👍

[@logankorhonen6968]

Paul... I was watching this in VR... and that one part when you were releasing the fish and said that your blinding us. Well my eyes hurt now😂.

[@MastaKlutch]

Fluval lights are nice, I think the App tied to it does a pretty good job.

[@hyrumsmith4675]

Anyone else think *rock sand! Rock sand, all she wanna do is party all night!!!!* when he said that 😂

[@kadeemcbride1182]

Paul I think you should do the bottom in sand and then on top of the sand put your logo with the black rock. Also maybe make one corner with some black rock and put some kind of plant in the corner with it.

[@Elijah-zn3wk]

Another banger

[@YanickW]

I'd suggest filling the bottom with sand. Then adding back, on some spots, some of the rocks for some extra contrast. I think that would look best.

[@Idk-zr8lv]

Anyone els just wait for the next banger from Paul

[@misteryoshi4094]

Me lol I'm so late

[@brer1083]

Fish just POP in that tank! Their color's are beautiful. Tank came out amazing. Love the video, keep up the great work!

[@collint5103]

When Paul Uploads right when the day the Airship map gets added you know it’s gonna be a good day

The airship is so shitty you know that , i mean the airship isn't but sign in thing is you can't even sign in

The sand looks beautiful at the bottom of the tank.

It’s good that you have professionals come on and teach the proper setups. Good job

he needs a good relationship with these guys instead of just having them to help him out. He alr lost one of the best professionals probably out there, Greg the pond guy.

[@just_a.boy_from_mars]

5:26 watch people try to cancel Paul for making a seizure joke😂😂

[@Seansworldd]

Wow this looks beyond beautiful. Cichlids are such underrated fish

[@jappa5280]

I was sleeping but this seemed more important

[@JohnT2088]

Those slate Rocks looks cool too. A bit more sand area would look better like 60% sand and 40% rock.

[@oliverjackson6115]

Paul! you should do an aquarium similar size to the one you’ve been working on today but for classic starter aquarium fish like mini gouramis and tetras and Molly’s and see how big you can grow them! Maybe even angel fish

[@DrummerBoy1594]

Think you should do both which gives the fish some what a natural feel and if they make beds.

[@lynchbradley15]

Welcome to the African Cichlid family. I love mine. Many colors

[@kangaroe-vc5eu]

Hey Paul i think the sand looks really good it makes the fish more visible. Maybe it's a idea to put Sand in multiple places and make a path like thing with the rocks through it. Keep up Tha good work!! U make awesome videos.

[@jagproietti]

I think you should do sand sections, place a few sand spots around the pond and leave the rest gravel

[@salty_dabs3565]

Pond* you should do sand and use the rock to do a pc in the middle. Like 3/4 rocks wide you know... like the new tank.

[@Danielzmalawi]

I love the feeling of new fish, buying and acclimating them😮😮😮

[@Charlie_Broadbent]

I have 2 FluvalSmart fish tanks and there amazing so the light that you bought will be insane and you can use your phone to change the colour of the light

[@kaydengoodrich6443]

Rock + sand! Gives texture and depth

[@nktaylo1]

I bought this tank about two months ago for $250 with the stand and started my own African Cichlid tank! I think my canister isn't quite as powerful as yours because I'm constantly dealing with lightly cloudy water. Thanks for the video!

[@deadmemes2908]

The sand makes the fish pop out,you could do like half and half but definitely more sand.

[@anthonyfaccin651]

the sand is looking beautiful and you can also see the fish which is valid 🙇🏼‍♂️

[@billyschannel997]

Electric blue would look really cool in there

[@Eevee_Lol-ic2rq]

It would be crazy to see the pond with sand and some black rocks, like the ones that you have, to just give some texture to it. Your vids are cool, man, keep out the good work❤️❤️

[@machellelowry9404]

I always smile when I see a new video of Paul's. Great job Paul.

[@fir3cl4w]

I’d keep a mixture of the white sand and the black rocks, the combination of the 2 looks sick!

[@Bossman0926]

Both rock and sand actually look kinda sick Paul you should do both

[@NimrodFowl]

Leave the rocks and sand as is! I love how it looks;

[@cindywillette3169]

Sand looks so nice now we can see your beautiful fish

[@stevento100]

Your right about the white sand for the outdoor tank

[@aaro267]

Full sand! It looks better and the fish likes it way more!

[@TWilliams205]

Pleco and African cichlids pare well together if you want to put one in there just make sure it’s somewhat the same size

[@loganbarlow1109]

Always love watching your videos keep it up... and I like the sand it makes the fish stand out more

[@alexanderdemcenko4914]

I think you should make like isles of rock but then have mainly sand on the ground! ☺️☺️

[@cj4193]

go for half rock & half sand in the pond.. it will look awesomee........

[@andrewrheinheimer8984]

I like a mix of both sand and rock cause it helps pop out your albino fish. And awesome new tank Paul

[@NoahHagen]

Put down sand in the pond and then about half of the rock. If you mix it all it it will have a natural look and be brighter

[@anikulalance2469]

Go with the sand makes the fish pop really nice

[@lane4662]

I think they both look good so you should do half and half

[@gregoryshelton1512]

Paul you have not yet shown us the cleaning and process for the Concrete pond build... and that great set up cleaning process will be interesting for some of us

[@garethbeelders1299]

In the big pond do more sand but like leave like a qaurter of the pond full of the rocks

[@andrewa4939]

Paul..... You should do the pond 50/50 sand and rock.... Would look good. Love ya channel mate.

[@jdmediagroup1337]

like the way the sand n rock looks now dont change

[@Luminaryknot641]

I remember when in was little i went fishing with my dad and we had left over shiners and we kept them in a tank and i thought the golden shiners were exotic fish

[@Jada-Rae]

I’ve always wanted a cichlid tank and this makes me want one even more 😫😍

[@piv9976]

I love african cichlids, the prettiest freshwater fish. Wish I had the space to set up a large tank

[@nickfrancis3371]

Pull all the rock up to one end so it’s built up and Then slope it down to about a third of the pond length then cover the other 2 thirds in sand Put a piece of bog wood in middle as feature

[@trevorhall7929]

Sand with a few bigger rock like the pond in the yard was built out of and couple pieces of drift wood

[@joaopezzi_]

Hey man, put sand around the pond, it looks beautiful, and the fish appear a lot more, and they prefer sand too. hug from Brazil

[@tlynn609]

I would rinse the sand next time so that if you were to get in there again and you step in the sand, it doesn't cloud up instantly on you & even tho your filter is a beast it'll help save it from working harder on cleaning the water, in time, help filter last longer.

[@mariorusso8731]

That is 1 of the best lights on the maket

[@patrickmcgavin3441]

If it was my 4000 gallon pond i'd make it resemble the ocean use sand mix of pretty corral rocks and various decorations.

[@elyjohnpulmones4503]

Mix of both rocks and sands looks so so goooooooood

[@shubunkin.goldfishtank]

Beautiful fish! they looked packed very well and all look to be healthy!

[@Roland2307]

PC is back in the AC community. You might want to put in some silk plants from Elite Cichlids for some cool contrast. That Venustus might be trouble in the future. One of the most stunning fish in the hobby but they can be AGGRESSIVE. It’s really hit or miss with them. Sometimes you can get a mellow one, allegedly. I’d bet Vegas he’ll be tank boss. I can’t wait to see the tank mature. Good luck.

[@Trotis98]

With the sand you can see the fish much better Paul, at least with camera!!!

[@stevenslinkard3535]

iv literally watched every single video youve made since your moms house and you've inspired me at a mojor level. i live in a single bedroom apartment and i already have 7 tanks with exotic fish and animals i love seeing all your videos and i look forward to seeing all the future videos. great job on the grind and keep grinding and inspiring many more.
