It's so nice to hear the enthusiasm back in your voice. You make me interested and curious just listening to you. Your aquariums look happy too. All different styles - no matter willingly or random design - are inspiring. The beautiful plants of all colours, sizes, planted in gravel/ in easy planters/among stones/ wood/ floating (... o, the lilies!). All the various combos of stone and gravel and wood and sticks - and some without. When one falls in love again with ones hobby (hard to do when it's also one's work and a "must, no matter what"), the magic returns. A big plant put somewhere 'for now' just happens to bring out the best in the mindfully planted greenery already there, just because it's just the opposite of the plants already there. A light leaf bringing out the dark in the others, a big leaf making the small stand out, vertical straight to rounded forms, It's when even the 'for now' , the 'in a year', the 'I have some of these', and the 'I didn't know it would do that' , when even those things turn out to be bullseye - then someone like me watching the videos really enjoys them 100%. Pros can make anything look easy, of cause, but in this hobby a person has to work together with nature and results may take time. A single variation of hundreds between two tanks give different results. It's when knowledge and experience is combined with love, curiosity and joy something happens. Intuitive decisions, improvisation, an eye for how looks and function may cooperate without always 110% conscious decisions, it just gives a look of balance. You just know, feel, have a hunch. Even the storage and growing out tanks just have that little extra. Your tanks look si good in their own different ways. Sorry for the many words. I just wanted to say I really love this fishroom content and I love to see and hear (!) the Cory enthusiasm that makes me daydream about a fairytale fishroom with no limitations, with a smile on my face. Thank You.

[@TheRealTMar]

I really like how it flows through the tank. It just gets everywhere this way and that's brilliant if you want to raise fry in a community tank.

[@HapiPETSWM]

The fact you’re doing African cichlids again is AMAZING. I love all my Africans from my mbuna to my haps it’s always amazing to look at and be apart of! I love how you’re going to make it also a planted tank with them! I have tried and had to settle with plant hangers or in my HOB to get the added filtration and health benefits. Your food looks great too! The fact it’s small enough for fry and nano fish/shrimp is very nice, grinding down flakes or pellets for fish food works well but knowing I don’t have to do it and know it’s done well is a weight lifted. I love the guppy shrimp tank, awesome video and thanks for sharing! Stay happy and healthy my friend!

[@michaelagostino3483]

Awesome! Now add a fix to your fantastic lights (please) Sell 4 to 6 inch risers.

[@ClownTRON777]

Picked some of this up at my local fish store (Aquarium Depot in Sacramento) and it was mind blowing how well it stayed in the water column and how long it stayed in the top of the water. This stuff is a must have for any nano fish tank or for fry. I think using this will help improve my water quality becuase I won’t be having so much crushed flake food going to the bottom feeding my snails!

[@ejfishes7610]

I just ordered some of the new nano food! I’ve been wanting something like this for my shrimp and small tetras! Thank you Cory.

[@stefjuststef5826]

Oh my gosh! That shrimp eating it upside down from the top! 😂

[@musicalmallorie]

I am sooooo excited for this. I feed my scarlet badis the easy fry food and love it but wish it stayed in the water column longer. This will be a great quick feed option when I don’t have brine shrimp ready. Man I just love this hobby.

[@jedeo299]

PRODUCT REQUEST - please add the cap from the dechlorinator item onto easy green!

[@candioverhuls1003]

We are adding a dosing cap to the Easy line of ferts, we just need to sell through the stock of Easy Green with pump heads first. :)

[@lizbay3985]

Ordered some last night can’t wait to try it on my tanks

[@pilchard8741]

100% with you on Bolivian rams! one of the first fish other then dither fish i kept, had him for years, handled a few beginner mistakes back in my early days of fish keeping, he recently passed and he left a big hole and we all miss him!

[@xxoldgreeneyesxx]

Mine is out for delivery tomorrow. I’m super excited to get back into fishkeeping after a four year hiatus due to massive burnout. Can’t wait to test it out.

[@ingesexton811]

I don't even have to watch the video (I'm gonna watch it anyway) to know it's good and I'm gonna buy it. Everything aquarium co op really is the best.

[@kurtbrutting5118]

Your tanks are looking great! I cannot wait to try your Magic Nano Feed! I have a ton of guppy fry ready to chow down!

[@aquablaster86]

I'm so happy to see more of this type of content again! It's honestly what got me so deep into this hobby. I understand it may not be good for the "KZbin algorithm" but hey, who says the algorithm is correct anyway 😂

[@AquariumCoop]

What specifically is the parts you like and is different? If you can do me a favor and leave a comment on the forum post discussing the video, we can have a back and forth. Here your reply will get lost in the sea of thousands of comments unfortunately. forum.aquariumcoop.com/topic/41112-our-new-fish-food-is-magic-video-discussion-qa/

[@TheRealTMar]

About fish poop and fertiliser, I run CO2 on two tanks and I add a lean fertiliser every day. Plants look good and of course also get natural manure. It's easier to remember to dose a fertiliser every day than having to think about dosing once a week or something. The product I use contains every macro and micro nutrient, even iron.

[@RickShrimple]

Would this be good for apistogramma fry? What would you recommend for them?

[@Linda-u9t]

😊 placed my order tonight and so much MUCH more 😊

[@stoneysscapes7544]

Looks like Magic to me , and a great reason to visit Twin Cities Guppies to stock up on all the things that Aquarium Co Op has to offer and I have to grab a few lights before the limited supply is all Sold Out 😢 I think that is one of the best scapes I have seen in awhile ( the 1st w/ Dragon stone and the Crypts ) , not a tricky one but it just has a great balance going on !!!!! Thank you Cory for always coming up with the goods 🌿💚🌱

[@tastyfishsauce4410]

Hi Cory, it has been a while and nice to see a video from you. My daughter moved back to Seattle area for a job and maybe I can convince her to visit (pick a few stuffs) from your store.

[@CorbincordelL]

It’s cool cause it feeds at every level of the tank which would be nice if you have a community tank

[@Wildwest696]

I hope most people get the fact that Cory is feeding these fish way too much food - he even says he's going to get a second food and feed them that to ! However , what people don't realize is is he's also feeding his plants (!!!!!!!). now a question for Cory - How much easy green do you use in a situation like this - is it even necessary at MAXIMUM feed ? 19:44

[@AquariumCoop]

Still dose easy green weekly. I believe most people underfeed their fish. The entire jar is 4oz. How much food do you think a 40 breeder with fish should eat? A pinch of this food looks like a lot in the water, however isn't that much. Take a handful of flour and throw it into the air in your kitchen. It goes everywhere. Now compare that to the flour used in bread to make a sandwhich etc. It's a visual thing vs an actual amount thing.

[@sarahwoodring5587]

Just ordered some of the new magic nano! Wish I'd done it two weeks ago so I'd have it on hand for my new brichardi fry...but it will be great to have ready for the next spawn

[@CarolynnMc01]

This food seems perfect! I'm going to buy it soon. Thank you for all of your hard work!

[@KenMclelland-c4x]

is this going out to your local distributor's like about fish in Colorado ???

[@AquariumCoop]

Yes, stores were notified last week of the new products and several have already ordered them and they are on the way to them.

[@123vietnamm]

I would like to ask how much money can I make by raising rhinogobius fish for a year? This fish is raised for ornamental purposes or for eating

[@j.t.cooper2963]

👍🏻😎 The new food looks awesome.

[@Parrotloverx10]

What kind of guppies are those? They're gorgeous! Would love to know where you got them from!

[@TomFWA]

Not just you, female guppies are also drawn to orange coloured males. I believe the current hypothesis is that they resemble fruit. Or at least a guppy scientist told me that.

[@yashtapase3821]

Huge ❤❤❤❤ from my albino cories to you cory ❤

[@pteromalid]

Bamboo shrimp!

[@VaDirtfishing]

How does this stack up against bugbuffet???

[@kylerowan6011]

I have Vampire Shrimp - could this replace First Bites?

[@Kay.D.N]

How does this compare to your easy fry food? I’m researching/planning for a cherry shrimp and endlers tank. I plan on feeding a variety of course, and was already interested in the easy fry food. Thanks!

[@AquariumCoop]

The Magic Nano Feed stays in the water column a lot longer than our Easy Fry and "floats" around to allow more fish to get to it, while evenly dispersing in the tank for grazers like shrimp to feed. ~ Zenzo

[@Kay.D.N]

@ good to know, thanks!

[@k0olmini11]

Bought it right away after it went live

[@Shakodancer16]

I just got the nano food in and omg it’s amazing!!!

[@LongFingeredEgalitarian]

While it is understandable because of TY change$, I am sad to see so many good quality TYers moving away from YT. Unfortunately, my work schedule rarely allows me the opportunity to participate in discussions/events, so I hope you @AquariumCoop continue to cross post - your videos are invaluable to many of us in the fish keeping world.

[@GrowMoreVeggies]

Great video, I can't wait for my magic fish food to arrive.

[@zsworld6609]

my saulosi ate all the java fern but did well with annibus

[@Ben-Mul]

Loved the video. Any chance your iPhone can film at 60 fps? Frame rate really blurred up those fish as they were swimming. Not a big deal, and it might be difficult to have that faster frame rate as well as the lower lighting, I'm not sure how it all works. If I have to choose between more videos, but shot on an iPhone, or less videos, but shot on some fancy camera, I'd take the more videos shot on an iPhone no question.

[@AquariumCoop]

Been doing some experimenting, but I think most stuff going forward will be 60 frames again. 30fps, allows more light into the camera. So there is a tradeoff, but it's not huge.

[@chasefury]

Please do a video on your new guppy rack

[@MikeMoore1]

Is this a food that Hillstream and/or Gobies and the liike might like as well as it settles on plants and bottom?

[@AquariumCoop]

I'm not sure, perhaps the gobies. I haven't had a tank at home to test and in the store it can be hard with other fish in the tank and customers wanting to buy from it etc. Over time we'll get more feedback from people with those tanks ;)

[@MikeMoore1]

@@AquariumCoop I'll get some ordered and try it on my 125 gallon nano fish tank that also has assorted hillstreams and stiphedons in there.. I have some in my cart to give a shot soon....

[@MikeMoore1]

@@AquariumCoop May wait so i can try that bigger version also for my tank that has angels, and larger tetras and cherry barbs and Bolivian rams....

[@z100com]

Does this have too much protein from shrimp? I heard to much protein can lead to failed molts and death. Please shed light on subject

[@AquariumCoop]

Depends on the balanced diet. How much is the shrimp eating naturally in the aquarium vs how much prepared food. Everything in life is in moderation.

[@z100com]

​@@AquariumCoop Makes sense appreciate your answer

[@mikerichardson8983]

How does this compare to your easy fry fish food?

[@AquariumCoop]

I prefer the new nano feed, it stays in the water column better and I like the ingredients a bit more. But Easy Fry Food has served me well for a decade.

[@boostfrog]

@@AquariumCoop Is this going to replace the Easy Fry food? Or do you plan to keep making both? I really like the Easy Fry (my Embers love it) and having both as an option for variety would be great.

[@linx8613]

Did anyone notice the 'flashing' at 2:38 ? 😅

[@Sec_coach]

Help me understand this The best fish food is a diverse mix of live food dry but mostly directed to the species you are keeping There’s no one size fits all because some are herbivore some scavengers and many carnivore I don’t buy only one food because of that and even use brine shrimp often

[@taniksambo1969]

What about honey gourami fry? They are super tiny.

[@Daniel-x4z]

The Bolivian ram just got split into two species, the species here is the new name, Mikrogeophagus maculicauda, which translates to "tail spot"

Interesting, good to know.
