I lost all of my 99% of my fish to ich it hit me so hard early into the hobby I managed to keep my pleco and 1 shrimp alive it hurt so bad my heart is with you friend

[@KaveManAquatics]

@@jackparkin1339 sorry for your loss bro! Ich is one of the worst!

[@kamivibra1]

@@KaveManAquatics what would you suggest to treat ich?

[@StraightothePointNews]

Bro I’m having trouble finding a good automatic surge protection/ backup air pump for under 150 dollars do you have any suggestions ?

[@kgconstrictors]

No matter how experienced we are we all still make unforeseen mistakes. Things can happen. You share everything good and bad with us so kudos to you. Im sorry that happened to you. I lost an entire 180 gallon when i left town for a week and the power tripped. Ive since set up a battery backup internet cameras and phone aps. Still things can happen. Keeping fish is amazing but life can happen. 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻 Peace and Love 🐠 you love your fish and bad things can happen. Thank you for sharing 🙏🏻❤️ Im sure this video saved future fishes lives. Im gonna make new changes so thank you for sharing they did NOT die in vain.

[@DGGuaglianone]

Losing fish is the hardest part of the hobby. The best thing we can do is learn from our mistakes and keep our tanks going. So glad you share these hard parts of the hobby with the community to help the rest of us.

[@ThePlantedTankTV]

Ignore the hate man. The world loves and respects you for who you are! Keep doing your thing brother! 🙏

You’re one of the only fish keepers that always keeps it real. Stuff like this has happened to the best of us. keep doing what you do bro

Appreciate that bro! 💪

I know how much you love all of your fish but these stingrays were SO special to you and we in your audience know this. I'm truly sorry for your loss. Thank you for sharing this cautionary tale with all of us.

[@TaciGrant]

One of the things that caught me to be a frequently follower of your work is your honesty with the truth challenges that this hobby poses to us. ❤👊🏼 You are badass! Keep up! I’m glad you are here. Thank you very much for everything you share.

[@KaveManAquatics]

Thank you for that positive feedback! 😁💪

[@adrianpadilla1030]

I just recently started watching your videos, started off with you helping me learn about chemical filtration and understand basic knowledge of good and bad bacteria etc. What I appreciate about you is that you’re honest and are just completely a human being, we all mess up but it’s not all bad if you’re able to walk away with a lesson learned. Knowledge is power. Love the vids and tanks.

[@KaveManAquatics]

Thank you for that positive feedback! It's highly appreciated!

[@TabbyCatLady]

So sorry, Kev. That’s devastating. Don’t beat yourself up, shit happens to everyone. Thanks for sharing your experience ❤

[@gregorypeck2763]

Kevin, I have a sense of the pain you have experienced, and I especially appreciate your honesty in this tragedy. You are a great man and an example to all of us

[@americangoldking]

People should appreciate your honesty instead of hiding mistakes which we all do it shows your compassion for the hobby- Nobody's perfect

Sorry for your loss. Keep doing what you do, I enjoy and have learned so much from you after getting back into the hobby earlier this year

[@rebeccab6521]

I’m so sorry! I appreciate you sharing because things do happen to all of us and I am always grateful for the education.

[@jjjsofficial7478]

Definitely motivates us all to get back up power/keeping alternate strips and to always be prepared for our fish..I'm damn sorry about the rays kev I couldn't imagine the loss

[@danielcarlton3553]

Sir, you are human and humans make mistakes. My daughter was involved in a wreck 2 weeks after getting her driver's license. She was fortunate to walk away with just a couple bruises. Can't say the same for the car. She made a mistake in a pressure situation. I will tell you like I told her, learn from your mistakes and don't repeat them. If we don't make mistakes, how will we ever learn to be better? I am sorry that you lost your rays. Don't beat yourself up for being human. You will learn and grow from it. The beauty is your followers benefit from your experiences good or bad and you taking your valuable time to teach others about the hobby I think overcomes all the haters. I know you will get back up from this. You never let a setback keep you down. Hang in there Kev, sometimes good things come out of bad situations. Take care bro.

[@gandarafromda951]

Perfectly said!

[@KaveManAquatics]

Thank you for these words brother! Hope your daughter recovers well!

[@user-ik2wx1zq4o]

Sorry For your loss. Keep blessing us with the lessons and knowledgeable informational content.✌️

[@Ashleniho]

Sorry to hear about your lost, you look really down dude. Respect for sharing this. I’ve been watching your vids from the last location and seeing your tanks now and the setup you have is inspirational. 👊🏾

[@Brah_dahChrisBlog]

You've gained a community because of your hard work & dedication to your fish. We've all seen your content and support you. Stuff happens. That's how we learn. Let negative individuals feel happy with themselves. Positive Vibes bro. Sorry to hear the news

[@damianng1237]

Deepest condolences man! It truly sucks and we know your passion and commitments to these beloved fishes and animals. Hope you will recover and come back stronger, and continue the great work in the community! Always love your well taken and super clear videos. 👍🏻

[@traciemcvicker7485]

So sorry for your loss 😢 You're only human and nobody is perfect. I got mad respect for you sharing your experiences good and bad. Keep your head up 👊 Let's Go!!

[@missyoreilly4815]

This is heartbreaking 💔 I’m so sorry for your loss, I was watching your videos on these guys just a few hours ago and already looking forward to seeing babies and updates. Can’t imagine how sad you and your family must be losing these majestic creatures. Thank you for the warning on air pumps. It’s so easy to not put the backup measures in place, everyone skimps on at least one aspect for a short while for whatever reason, anyone who is smug about this is just lucky not to be caught out in the moment that their ass is hanging out of their pants, and there is not a person out there who doesn’t have those moments.

[@SamiiSan]

So sorry for this loss!! A devastating lesson learnt. Thanks for taking the time to share ❤

I'm sorry for your loss! Your video just made me rethink the power strip placement l have. I could very easily have the same issue. Thank you for sharing

[@user-dq8om1dq1k]

Kev's sincerity and love of his wet friends is what keeps me coming back for more. His knowledge and willingness to assist others is only matched by his ability to share his experiences with others. My sympathies Kev for your loss. Remember that we can only learn from every mistake made by those willing to share. Hate should never be a reaction to Kevin's honesty.

[@spoiledsushi7400]

So sorry for your loss & thank you for your honesty. The information is so valuable.

[@crainbolt5155]

Very sorry for your loss. Love your channel because you teach us all about so many things, Thank you! ❤

[@stephaniemcgettigan5822]

So sorry again that this happened to you. I hate to see bad things happen to good people. It’s just not fair. They were so beautiful I’m gonna miss seeing them so much. People that want to hate on you just want to make themselves feel better cause they hate their own lives. Your a fighter, and I know your never going to give up. Maybe next time you go away for more then a day you could get a fish/house sitter. Just know we’re all giving you a big virtual hug!!!! 💙💙💙💙

[@KaveManAquatics]

Thank you so much Steph! The support from you guys is what keeps me going! 💪

[@AlmaMartinez-]

I just want to say because of you my fishes are thriving & doing wonderful! There is no one else I look up to in the fish community but you Kev.

This is a great lesson for all of us that you can’t be lazy in this hobby and procrastination is a killer. 😢😢 Thanks for sharing with us this life lesson and even veterans in the hobby make mistakes. I can only imagine how you feel right now. I will give you a virtual hug from California. ❤🤗🤗 thanks for sharing the ups and down of this hobby.

Thanks for sharing. I have been in this hobby for about 2 years now. I have too had some lost from mistakes and power outages here in TN. I have taken your advice for the backup air pumps and in need to purchase another for my fifth tank I just added. Sorry for the sting ray lost. You have shown us how to care for them well. The cichlid tank you have is what inspired me to get into this hobby. Keep up the good work Bro!!

[@Eber_perez]

Dammm bro feel so bad this happened to you, as a discus keeper there's some times you loose fish not knowing why but it doesn't matter the time you had them it does feels like loosing a family member. Thank you for always sharing with us your experience good or bad so we can learn from you. RIP Scooba, Cookie and Carrot🙏🏻

[@frederickali4044]

Damn Kev my condolences I know the feeling of losing fish I truly do, stay strong man we live and we learn, I lost around 33 african cichlids due to something wrong with sand and water in my tank but through you and my love for this hobby I have continued through all the hardships and trials and have 29 cichlids thriving now 🙏🏻

[@Beyondthehorizon406]

This side of the hobby is much needed to be shared, so deep appreciation for your honesty and courage to share. It’s not all rainbows and sunshine shit happens, learn from it and move forward Sending hugs ❤❤❤

[@SNova268]

Thank you for your transparency. We live and learn 🙏

[@Amazongurl42]

I'm so sorry for your loss and heartbroken for you. Please ignore the haters because so many of us have learned and been inspired by you. I have lost many fish and was prepared to give up on the hobby, until I found your videos this year. Now, I am looking forward to this lifestyle journey. I started over based on your educational videos (including this one) and I have seen nothing but "GREAT" results. Your babies lives will not be in vain because you have enlightened us and are teaching us how to prepare for the unexpected. Thanks for your honesty/sincerity because it means a lot to so many of us. 🥰🥰🥰

Sorry for your loss Kev. Thanks for posting. Because this is the only way we learn

[@lorisheheen2198]

Again Kev I'm so sorry this happened. I understand how you feel. I also understand that when you work, have children and family obligations that are first and foremost in our lives, we often put things off because we get busy and there's just not enough time in a day or week to do all the other things we need and love to do. As awful as this is...Scuba, cookie and Carrot were well taken care of by the best. This could have happened to anyone. I think you taking this accident and educating all fish keeper's is a testament to who you are. A Kind hearted soul. Your only human. Thank you for sharing about what happened. I'm sure this wasn't easy. Scuba, Carrot and cookie will be fondly remembered. They were amazing.🙏❤

[@KaveManAquatics]

You nailed it right on the head Lori! All those reasons is exactly why my procrastination got the best of me. Thank you for understanding and leaving me these words! The support I receive from you and others is a blessing! 💖

I just got into the hobby this year and have been watching your videos to educate myself. I’m sorry for your loss as I can see the pain in your eyes. Wish you luck and haters gonna hate.

[@jgurdon]

Things happen to all of us bro. When I kept my first ray I was living in nyc and I had nowhere else to put my 220 gallon tank except the garage. It was winter time in January and the power went out all night and I could do nothing about it bc I was at work on the night shift. When I got home the water temp was 51 degrees. My ray was barely breathing but he was in motionless state. I quickly did water change adding warmer water and he came back to life but only lived for about 2 weeks after that because he never ate and got internal parasites after that huge shock. It sucks but moral of the story is keep going. I now live in CT and have my own fish room with 5 adult rays. Keep going bro and keep learning. Thanks for sharing the experience.

[@dscott7864]

Thanks for sharing. Hopefully, others will learn from your experience.
