The Life Cycle of a Pea Pufferfish

[@jameshunt4097]

What a killer video! Whoever is editing these really hit the ball out of the park on this one! You've come a long way mate you should be super proud

[@michaelgeorge4643]

This was his best video yet in my opinion. Which was probably helped by the fact that pea puffers are ridiculously cute lol

[@tyler8544]

How to keep fish simply: start a fish store, breed every type of fish simultaneously, produce high-end nature documentaries.

[@PufferFishes]

Nice

[@AquaticTips]

I agree!

[@christianleeperrr7641]

The footage, audio quality, documentary style, microorganism footage, in my humble opinion this is the best thing you’ve produced on KZbin by a large margin, I would eat up longer versions of these.

[@kernalbert4939]

I feel the opposite. I get it. But I don't want Discovery Channel Foley work and slick visuals, I want a guy passionate about fish talking about breeding fish...

[@temperaturecheck]

@@kernalbert4939watch someone else?

[@goberianchloex3646]

@@kernalbert4939 well what you morning about then, you have both! This young lad does both and does it well and amazingly is as humble a person as can be. I bet his partner helps a lot too but the poor women of these creators don’t get enough credit. Behind the scenes I mean x

[@papayin5930]

This is one of the best breeding videos I have ever watched. U are killing it and slowly becoming one of the faces of this hobby, keep it up ❤

[@elijahjenkins965]

Bro you are a legend! I've been told by anyone who knew what pea puffers are that they are literally impossible to breed in captivity and you just did it like it was easy.

[@sharonjack8582]

I have had a pea puffer for 2 years in a 5.5 gal tank of male guppies. Heavily planted with enough ramshorn snails. 'Puffy' has taught me WHAT he wants. #1 He eats the snail eggs and newly hatched snails. #2 When the elder snails die off, he comes to the glass and lets me know to add more adults to lay those eggs.#3 I have never seen him eat an adult snail. He gets mad at the occasional one that he suspects is not laying enough eggs and PUSHES the snail over. That's all. CONCLUSION - there is a wonderful BALANCE in this tank due to the snails constantly cleaning while Puffy keeps them from over-populating. TWO YEARS of this now. I LOVE it!!!!!!😊😊😊

[@inkylumine8967]

I don't usually comment on anything but i have a pea puffer and I LOVE THIS VIDEO. Its a real work of art, and so moving as well. Please never take it down ...more puffer content please!

[@goberianchloex3646]

This is the BEST video from a fish creator I have ever seen. Really well edited and the information is second to none. Really amazing stuff, well done mate !!

[@j0j0kay]

Check out "Tanks for nuthin" It's like this but more in depth!!

[@miguelcruz7673]

Watching your journey from your house, doing voice overs like this video, all the way through the vlogs and now to this top quality voice over… congratulations!!! Have been following you for 4years… you always come up with helpful videos, not always saying the same thing in different ways to look like it’s a whole new video! You are amazing Nick!! Keep up with that work (soon this videos will be on National Geographic)

[@BettaFreaks]

THE MOST BEAUTIFUL EDIT I’VE SEEN IN MY LIFE!!! NICE JOB NICK, KEEP IT UP 👌🏻 congrats TO THE TEAM BEHIND IT AS WELL I LOVED EVERY SECOND

[@deandutton1938]

Best Video i Seen Over pea Puffer

[@shadygrady81]

Great Job! So entertaining...especially the little sound effects! ❤ You have accomplished another step in your journey as a wildlife photographer and biographer! Congratulations 🎊🎉🍾

[@DeepDesaiEnt]

Nick!!! This isn't just the life cycle of the Pea Puffers but also of KeepingFishSimple. It's been amazing to see your transformation from a fish hobbyist to a filmmaker/storyteller. This and all your new uploads are hitting the right spots, you and your team (if any) deserve many more views, subscribers and fruition. Kudos to KeepingFishSimple 🙌 ❤😊

[@klausoxen6597]

Great Vid👍Thanks for sharing. Greets from the Middle of Germany

[@mariafski]

DUDE. THE PRODUCTION. THE QUALITY. WITH THE SOUND EFFECTS. AND MY FAVORITE FISH AS WELL. *Chefs kiss* *Chefs kiss* *Chefs kiss* You are the best!! I loved your breeding videos before, and now 😱

[@lisasaxon7828]

I’ve been breeding for the last 2 years and adore them all infact it’s sad when they find their new adopted home. I lift out the mop n shake it into a tub or just do a siphon n check the water. They’ll spawn usually after lunch into the eve at times as you’d know it’s 5 days til hatching. I keep my eggs simply in a dish floating ontop of water that way I can double check on things at a close glance. I chop up the blood worms really small so they can try eat from about 4 weeks old Looks like your doing a grand job daddy, luv the “yum” sound affects btw…aren’t they just the most cutest lil guys to keep. Well done n cute video 💙

[@sharonjack8582]

I like your videos! This one is FABULOUS!!! I have a pea puffer in with my male guppies in a 5.5 gallon tank. The reason all is well is 1) the tank is FULL of live plants for lots of coverage 2) there are a LOT of ramshorn snails. 'Puffy' single-finnedly manages the WHOLE colony of snails by himself. He eats the snail-eggs AND the baby snails. He leaves the adult snails alone. As the adult snails eventually die off from old age, I add more snails from my other tanks. Puffy works everyday checking the eggs. He does NOT bother the guppies. Occasionally the boy guppies try to get amorous with him and he just swims away, lol. It is one of the great joys of my life to watch this 3/4 inch fish manage this snail colony. It is very important to add more snails when the old ones die naturally of old age, after laying lots of eggs in their life-time. 2 years now, this has been going on. LOTS of plants encourage the snails laying their eggs, and give Puffy lots to keep 'interested' in. He carefully SCANS every square inch of the tank for his dinners. AMAZING little fish. I am so grateful to know and be able to observe him.💦🙏🐟

[@jespersandoval4181]

Enjoyed the edits! it is very entertaining :)

[@NiX_aKi]

Beautiful ❤️ You've come a long way in your video editing skills 💪🏼😎 Love it! Especially the audio!

[@SteveBe22]

I’m only a minute in this video and had to stop and comment… FANTASTIC editing! I love the sound effects and music! 👏

[@SwatejK]

Incredible footage, the colour change throughout the lifecycle of the fish is amazing🤩

[@dt2568]

Omg the editing on this one is amazing. I loved all the sound effects!

[@apoorv1441]

thank you so much for saving these endangered species so that i can see my favourite fish species in near future as well

[@ryankim7742]

This was my favourite video you've made so far I really enjoyed it

[@mimzywhimzy]

This was as fantastic as any top tier nature documentary I've ever seen. Fabulous on every level; from the story to the soundtrack to the camera work... Bravo. Just an absolute treasure!

[@AussieAquatic]

Super edit!!!

[@AndrzejLDotEu]

That was brilliant 😁. The added sounds of puffies slurping was just highlarious! 🤣🤣🤣

[@Twinkley1981]

Really missed your breeding videos, it feels like it’s been ages. You replied to me a few weeks back that you would be realising some new breeding content. So I was so excited to see the upload. 😃 This one reminded me of mini documentary, like something that you could show in schools etc, great job 👏🏼👍🏼 Don’t get me wrong I still love your raw breeding content too and will watch whatever you put out. I love all your breeding/raising fry content. 🐟😊

[@NickandBenji24]

Great video! Very informative :)

[@HaydenHag]

Brilliant! I got my hands on a trio of Pea puffers afew months back and have been trying to get them to breed

[@curtism1741]

This is great video. I hope you keep making videos like this. 👊✊👊

This was an amazing video. I felt like I was watching a high production value doc like _Planet Earth_ or something.

OMG, the entertainment level of this video is amazing. I laughed more than a few times. : )

The video editing has got so good, this has got more comparable to a documentary then to a youtube video. keep it up.

[@Samtla]

Loved all your previous work, but this is an interesting direction, and filming/production-style. Amazing job!

ur best edited video yet

[@brooksmiller5597]

For real! He had microscopic B-roll and everything 🤯. Very well done

[@knabdank]

its nice to see these going down in price like a year ago they were around $200 or $300 for one, now im seeing them going for as low as $70 which is great for someone like me who cant afford to spend almost half a weeks pay on a single fish and ive really been wanting some pea puffers! hopefully gonna wait till i see them down aroun $30 though.

[@stonedkid69]

where do you live? where i am they are about $5!!!

[@alexnarconis]

Video Editing game stepped up 1000X Great work man!

[@Higgsboson61]

Nice edit mate!!

[@ironlion45]

The production value of this video was A+++! I've enjoyed your channel for some time, but this video was absolutely brilliant. I love the editing!

[@ericb4492]

Omg. The price is quite literally 10 times cheaper here in Canada! Great job breeding them!

[@januszzagula6412]

In Europe (Poland) under 2$

[@bigbowlowrong4694]

Yeah, your average LFS in Canada can probably import them in bulk from huge wholesale fish farms in the US and Asia. Every single pea puffer in Australia is locally bred (normally by hobbyists), and we’re not allowed to import them. Only a few years ago it was normal to see them for sale for $250AUD each… the price has about halved since then, but they are still a pretty hot commodity.

[@--Paws--]

I really miss these fish. I had 5 in total but not altogether. One was given to me, the other four I bought as pairs to control snails in separate tanks. It's not that I don't like snails, I just didn't want them everywhere. They all seem to live just around ~4 years. You're lucky to even have them breed.

[@clive-yu]

High Quality Content!!

[@blujeans9462]

Your recent videos have really gone to the next level! Excellent...and all the best!

[@ViperOptix]

Top quality edit, well done.

[@dieenteimhimmel7377]

I sadly can't say anything that has not been said yet, but man, this is beautiful. Altough i do mis the old breeding videos, explaing the spawning part in greater detail, i fully recongnize, that this is bette content. Seeing your content evolve is great and i can just say, keep it up!!

[@andremercante8451]

That was fascinating! I am hooked LOVE the Pea Puffers!🥰

[@ians7339]

The sound fx are great

[@Loveofpets]

What an excellent video on the pea Puffer. I love them and had some throughout the years and they had babies. I was so excited. I never put the babies in a separate tank as they just appeared one day and lived with the adults. Thank you so much, I enjoyed your video!

[@kevinmateff7143]

Such a well thought and produced video, not a moment I didn’t love, great video!!

Like watching a National Geographic documentary. Amazing quality of visuals and storytelling. 😊

[@PaintedSkyArts]

Loved this! I absolutely love puffers of all kinds. I had a couple of these cuties about 15 years ago and miss them, so it was fun watching this. Thank you!

[@viviansaravanan7531]

That was the best video I've watched in at least the last two years.

[@its_elser]

congrats. great video. hopefully they will be more accessible pricewise soon. looking forward to the day i can buy 5-10 of them

[@sharonkaczorowski8690]

If I’m ever able to setup an aquarium (severely disabled) these guys would top the list, except for the fact that obtaining live food would be very difficult. They are smart little critters! A betta fish it is, but I can watch videos like this to satisfy my pea puffer addiction!

[@alfabettabe]
