Love your channel! I live for the bloopers

[TimsBitsnPieces]

The age old question... I love bloopers.... great stuff as always... I change 1/3 of each tank once a month. I have 10 tanks and more coming soon..

I like the revisiting of the basics, good job.

Very helpful

Love the channel! I’m glad you checked that guy on the changing too much water. I change water more than I need to and the fish are fine. It’s a personal choice. I also know they will be fine if I don’t do daily —- as long as the nitrate parameters are at appropriate levels.

Jesus Mike, aren't the tube ends dirty? Lol!

[melissafoster]

Great video @Michael’s Fish Room. It’s not hard. People make it SO hard. Agreed. Don’t overthink it guys.

That guppy was like ok imma head out 🤣🤣

[cathyhendrix]

You had a rough go on this video, uh Mike? LMAO. Loved the bloopers. Hahaha

[nkawtg]

LOL! I love your no BS approach, and I still learn little tips from you, even when I already know the main subject that you're talking about that. I had to leave the freshwater for beginners group cause there are just to many people flying all over the place with wild and crazy opinions and suggestions and everybody wanted to argue all the time.

I would like to add for us planted tank folks that use fertilizer, we have to know how many nitrates our fertilizer adds, and subtract that from the nitrate count to determine when to water change. Example: Tank shows 40 ppm on test strip. I know I dose 15 ppm fertilizer. Tank actually has produced 35 ppm nitrate since last water change. It's all about a routine.

I change my water way more often then I'd like to as I don't like the look of the tannins my 3 pieces of driftwood create (I know they can be beneficial, just don't personally like It). I'm glad this video showed me that it IS OK for me to do the water changes. In saying that I think sadly I'm going to take out 1 of my three pieces of Wood because I don't really want to be changing water twice a week, my nitrates are never as high as when people would normally change their water and I'm sure my plants hate my constant water changes for looks

I have an established 37 gallon tall aquarium never water change it but top it off when I have a lot of water evaporation my white cloud mountain minnows are just fine and breeding happily but I do have a lot of floating plants and live aquarium plants, aquarium moss and a large sponge filter plus have no ammonia, nitrate, nitrite and if there is any my plants eats it all up

[derekprosser]

Bro you are so funny I love watching your videos!

[lewashcliffe]

Always enjoy your videos, Michael! You're such a serious guy!🤣

[catfishcave]

I am about to begin my water changes (my usual 90%) - perfect timing!
My cold water is 85 out of the tap!
