As a teacher, I enjoy watching others who teach well. Dean is knowledgeable, engaging, passionate, and does an amazing job of explaining things in simple understandable terms. Love hearing his take on about anything.

They're pretty fun to watch herding the fry around, too.

I've been wanting to dabble with apistos for a while but they aren't available locally where I'm at :(

[taylorhartford]

Dean is my favorite co-star in all the aquarium coop videos. So much knowledge 🤯

[skinser]

appreciate Dean opening up his experience to the rest of us

[lawrences]

Why not duckweed for apistos? Will they eat it or because it grows like, well, weeds? 😂
