[@jamesblankenship4292]

I've watched dozens and dozens of videos on this and this is the first time I've clearly understood it. Great content for me, the beginner, and you're a great teacher!

[@sarahshealthyrecipes]

Dude, my kid won a fish and I had no CLUE what to do. Your videos are AWESOME! So easy for us newbies to understand. Thank you!

[@cyklopPL]

Same as other comments - your videos ARE SO SIMPLE to understand, thank you. I am 35 YO but have a fish tank for the first time and the learning curve has been quite steep. You channel is a god sent

[@sprocket0077]

I’ve watched every nitrogen cycle video on KZbin and this is the best one. I didn’t know the bacteria actually consume and transform the ammonia into nitrite

[@irenelim6798]

Thank you so much! Because of your videos, i was able to save my fish through "quarantine". so happy with seachem products, though its expensive😂 Started with this hobby about 3 weeks ago and hopeful that me and my fishes would survive! Thanks for your simple and direct explanation. God bless!

[@samuelpaulkeys9357]

You are an awesome teacher. Finally am seeing someone who teaches this in the best way 😄 Keep helping the fish keepers brother ❣️

[@yak6896]

I've been keeping fish for 10 years and this was still helpful. (setting up my second aquarium) Haha! Well explained.

[@GradoniusTheWise]

You shared the bit of information about tank cycling that I was most confused about. I was confused about tank cycling and how an 80% water change wouldn’t cause you to restart the tank cycle…

[@GuilhermeIanella]

I can't stress enough how much your video helped me. I watched hundreds of videos, and none was better than yours. I rarely comment on KZbin, but in this case, I had to. Excellent content, I'll stay tuned!

[@TabbyCatLady]

Wow great channel man. I’ve been doing a lot of research on freshwater tanks lately and your videos are the best. Clear and concise info presented very well. Subscribed! 😊

[@Flintlock85]

You do a great job in all your videos Kev!! Your efforts are much appreciated!!

[@1985goldie]

Bloody love these videos. Really easy to understand for a beginner like me and so well edited! Best of luck with the channel man✌🏻

[@junri861]

Im learning more from this man than those bigger channels. Very informative and newbie friendly! Thanks for these ! Imma sub!

[@michaeldavenport9971]

Just getting started. Bought a house 8 years ago with a 350L tank embedded in the man cave bar . Ignored it for 8 years but now got the bug. Set it up last weekend with filter, lighting, heater, aeration and substrate. Week in and desperate to add fish but watching your videos I’ll be patient for at least another week as added some bacteria kick start from week 1 so hoping 2 weeks will do it. Love your content.

[@nkwart]

Aloha from Oahu. Great videos, refreshing my memory as I start the hobby again and perfect videos for teaching my kids who are just as involved with our tank. Mahalo 🤙🏽
