Saltwater Aquarium: 4 YEARS WITHOUT WATER CHANGES!

[@rickfromthecape3135]

Hey Mike! Still here! You're like the zebra pleco that is a pleasant surprise when he shows up out of nowhere! Always good to see your content, and I'm glad to see the salt water tank is still going strong. Zo's are true Bostonians....they "love that dirty water". Hey you live your life, the family's the most important. The kids will be grown and gone in a flash if you're not paying attention.

[@MASSAquariums]

lol. Love it. Perfect analogy

[@CaringForAnimals1414]

Mike Great To See You Back On KZbin!

[@MASSAquariums]

Thank you

I moved to Southern California from Florida over a year ago (tired of hurricanes) and gave away four of my five tanks and all my fish and plants. So stressful trying to keep my fish alive during power outages. I have one empty 55 acrylic that I’m hanging onto. Your 40 gallon saltwater tank has been an inspiration to me to go saltwater. I understand completely how it’s difficult to find the time to enjoy your tanks when family and life takes up all of your time. Hobbies aren’t fun when they become a chore. That said, I’m hanging onto to my last tank until I find the time to set it up. I do miss your planted tanks as they were amazing.

[@MASSAquariums]

Very well said. Tough to live a hobby but not have time to care for the tanks

[@Les-OZZYTHEOSCAR]

What a great little tank Mike. Who doesn't love clown fish. Real good to hear from you Mike, glad you are keeping well my friend.

[@MASSAquariums]

Same to you my man. Long time

[@newenglandendler]

nice to hear from you , nothing wrong with enjoying life .

[@MASSAquariums]

Have to. Thanks for watching

[@TheMushroomTech]

Keep it going please 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@rcnewsupdate9435]

Just my 2 cents on tank lasting a long time.... I have a used 135 gallon Oceanic(no braces in the middle) that I bought in 1993. It lived 18 years as freshwater and 13 years as salt and is still going strong.

[@MASSAquariums]

Sweet

[@googletoldme2292]

Interesting and well done.If it's not broke don't fix it i feel is the moral of this story 👍🏼

[@MASSAquariums]

Yeah that sounds sufficient for the video 😂

[@fishysnowman9082]

What up my friend 👊🏻. Cool stuff

[@MASSAquariums]

Hay what’s up dude. Let’s hope for a cold winter ❄️

[@fishysnowman9082]

@ Yes 🙌. I got trips plan to Northern Maine and Up of Michigan. Keeping my fingers crossed.

[@simpleaquatics4262]

Bro you definitely still have subscribers especially me being from Mass!!! I support on Facebook and KZbin!!! When I first started in the hobby your videos are what got me going man !!! Go pats!!!

[@MASSAquariums]

Thanks. Appreciate it. I think Maye is the guy. Just need an O line and a true #1 wide receiver

[@simpleaquatics4262]

@ 100 percent agree with you

[@itsandrewson]

Dang. found your channel years ago and haven't looked into the hobby after I moved and sold off all my stuff. I moved back to my parents house where I started the hobby last week and kinda wanted to get back into the hobby and I see your video come up!

[@MASSAquariums]

Nice

[@ezwaters5847]

A MASS Aquariums video is always worth a watch. It's nice to hear experienced hobbyists talk about things the mainstream channels won't touch. Majority of channels are all cookie cutter these days...

[@MASSAquariums]

Thanks for tuning in. Just have to be real

[@MakinEmAtNight26]

He’s alive!

[@MASSAquariums]

🤷🏻‍♂️👌🏼😂

[@clintwood9589]

Still here! I always enjoy watching your content. Would love to see you build out something new. However, I understand the time commitment. I’m traveling a lot myself and having a new tank isn’t in the cards for me either. I sold all of mine about 2 years ago. I miss the hell out of it though. Keep coming back occasionally and give us some updates!

[@MASSAquariums]

Maybe one day soon I’ll get some time. Lol

[@clintwood9589]

@ I hope the same. It may be at retirement though. lol.

[@WaynesFishWorld]

Old school popped up on my feed , what’s up from the shadows

[@MASSAquariums]

Oh shit, what’s up dude. You still making videos?

[@SlimTim_dirty_aquatics]

Still here and Fired Up!!! Yea I’m back to making videos and shorts; it’s crazy and harder to come out with content nowadays then when we first started out.

[@MASSAquariums]

For real

[@darrensanimalsreptilesfish30]

Bristle worms😂 Took me a minute

[@MASSAquariums]

lol. Thank you. Been so long since I said that name

[@caroleblair1438]

Mike,looks great as all yours do…I almost forgot your name ❤

[@MASSAquariums]

Thanks

[@CaringForAnimals1414]

Hi Mike have you heard of Greg Jones? Because he stopped making videos for a long time.

[@MASSAquariums]

He’s just busy with family life and work. You know, living life without a camera.

[@CaringForAnimals1414]

@@MASSAquariumsThank You for your response. Have a Great Day

[@linhnguyen-hk9ju]

Is that cyano bacteria or coraline algae? Anyway i like your videos, keep the good stuff going.

[@MASSAquariums]

Coraline

[@nachoman1273]

Supp Mike! What happened to the female clown? It looks like another fish?

[@MASSAquariums]

Nope. Same pair I’ve had for years

[@Jayr2374]

I echo your sentiments on the hobby . It's a struggle.

[@MASSAquariums]

For realz

[@jerriddemastus8533]

Cyano disease is the red slime in tank possibly

[@markfranklin8831]

Good looking clowns.

[@MASSAquariums]

[@marcusjustus2661]

[@MASSAquariums]

Do t even know how to get them off the rock. I’ve cube?

[@marcusjustus2661]

@@MASSAquariums you can take an ice cube to the foot and try to get them off. or you can slowly try to peel the foot off. ive also seen some take the rock out of water its on and hold it upside down to just let them drop off the rock

[@bogeymanshankers3904]
