I can assure you. I do use your tips and they help me. I have bred Pea Puffers thanks to you. I have bought a Fluval Evo and I am following your advice. I am totally fed up with some of the big channels. your channel is real and brilliant. Thank you and welcome back
As a fellow content creator I just want to tell you how much I enjoy your videos and respect the integrity of your content. Don't worry about the wannabees, your authenticity in the aquarium hobby is impossible to ignore. Cheers!
Mark, great to see you back. With 56k+ subscribers there will always be a handful of trolls posting negative comments, learn to ignore them. Your channel is great and your care and attention to your hobby is second to none, please keep posting for the 99.9999% of subscribers who love your videos
I recommend your channel to so many customers, especially if they say they've been watching what I call a Handtuber (talking voice and hand in shot at all times pointing at stuff) who's got a brand new aquascaping video out blah blah blah. In all honestly I probably show people your evo video because of that gsp lawn you have going atleast once a week and one chap bought an evo and is now really into the hobby and another decided to have another go at keeping corals after a long break. So please keep doing what you do. More Welsh native marine foraging videos those are great!
Unfortunately there is plenty of people with much less knowledge then you but more followers wich is not fair. Your knowledge is enormous and I like the way you explain nicely everything. Every time I need to learn something I'm looking for your videos. Please keep helping us! Take care!
I am glad you are back. Your videos have helped me out so much in the past. I even started a 29 gal long saltwater tank last June and your fluva was my inspiration. Don't let them get you down. We all love to see you and learn from you.
Thanks for coming back, Mark. You are one of the best all around Aquarist's out there and I love your channel. You are so knowledgeable and enjoyable to listen too!
Hi Mark, keep up the good work. I watch a lot of YT videos on fish keeping and I really am a fan of yours. Your manner of treating subjects is really unique. It's not clickbaits, over reacting, always pushing to subscribe, comment like all videos are now. It's trully educationnal, fun, and brilliant. Like I said I watched a lot of channels but yours clearly are the one that teached me the most. You never go the easy way and you treat about difficult breeding and looks like it's easy or at least achievable. Keep the good work, and since I watch and recommend your videos from France, don't forget that you're a international star :)
Hiya Mark, have missed you n you videos so I’ve been watching a chick crammed Sharmon in Florida shelling on different beaches..SWF Beachlife. So nice to see you n all your sweet fishies back. You do as much n what ever you want to do darl. Your the best with breeding and your THE most genuine, chilled and nicest guy hands down . 💙 Lisa. Oh…ps: I’ve had success in breeding peas…currently have 11 lil bubbas and adopted out 4 others a few months back.
Very very happy to see you back. You're still my go to for aquarium content. When i feel like I'm hitting a stagnant point I always find a new idea or challenge to try on your channel. Still the best breeding videos I've found so far. Be well, be safe and be happy good sir.
Welcome back Mark, you have a very loyal fan base and you've taught me lot over the years, definitely good to have a month or two off every now and then to recharge, really good to see you back mate.
Mark we always get the information from you as it comes from the horse’s mouth. Informed and on point. As for Your plagiarist clone’s. When you talk to the back end of the horse. The results may be called apples. Warning they are not an official apple product. Do not bites on these one.
Hey Mark, I'm into the aquarium hobby for 15 years now but never successfully bred a single fish. I started venturing in the fish breeding after watching your videos and over the last year, I have successfully bred Guppy, Platy, Betta, Angle & now Rainbow. So don't give up & keep inspiring us! Cheers!
So glad to see you are back on RUclips. I am just a one tank amateur from Cornwall. I follow a lot of Channels but love yours especially, partly because of content but 99% because of you, your character, your passion, your desire to educate. Others may copy the content but you have something unique and wonderful, yourself. Stay strong Mark and ignore the idiots.
It’s wonderful to have you back! Please don’t pay too much attention to the critics…they are usually those who are jealous. Your subscribers love you and the knowledge you so generously share with us 👍💕
So glad you are back. It was thus little tank that gave me the confidence to try a marine setup myself and am already thinking of upgrading to a larger tank.
So happy your back! Me and my son (14 years old) saw your breeding Galaxy Rasbora videos and we have now a stock of 10 that will hopefully breed. Your videos are the best! Thank you for opening up a whole world on keeping and breeding fish. Better to have my boy breeding his own fish and making a small profit then going out and wasting money on energy drinks and useless stuff =D
I learnt how to breed celestial Pearl danios all thanks to mark also. Being sold for anything from 10 to 16$ (home fish keeper breeders like myself ) which certainly gave me an extra boost of $$ while being unemployed over last year n half to 24$ each in a store. Had 2 batches of 80 to 90 each time…they’re greatly sort after here as not many breed them locally and they’re hard to get elsewhere. Well done to you n your son.
Great to you see you are back Mark, Many can imitate but there is only ONE MASTER BREEDER - YOU!....Looking forward to seeing many more of your magnificent videos.
Hey Mark, glad to see you back. I’ve been in a similar situation of creating content that became successful only to have it ripped off, so I can totally empathize. Keep your head high. I keep one small planted tank with tetras, I don’t do any saltwater stuff, tide pool foraging, or breeding so a lot of your content doesn’t really apply to me. Yet, the reason I keep watching is because I love watching your passion and enthusiasm for the hobby and your utmost respect for the living things you keep. Just make videos as long as it makes YOU happy to do it.
I kept thinking I was unsub'd and repeatedly checked your page to see. Even msgd hoping all was well. Good to have you back. Cannot say I have run across any channels like or a copy of yours, and I watch a few fish related channels. Unique is one of the reasons I am here. Happy to know you are well,... and back!!
Good to see you back mark, I started watching with breeding neon tetras and the obsession started from there. Sadly I’ve not followed every species you’ve bred just yet I’ve only got 11 tanks 😂
I was beginning to think we might have lost you forever. Glad to see you're back. Ignore the negative comments, you're never going to please everybody all of the time. You could show a video demonstrating how to change lead into gold and somebody would still complain.
So glad your back Mark. Absolutely love watching and learning from your videos. And love the updates on the fluval Evo. Thank you so much for making these videos.
Amazing, just love your work and so do the corals and the cute little clown fish. Good to see you back as well, thanks for this enjoyable video. God Bless. P.S you cant change the nasty actions and words of others, what you can change is how they make you feel about their nasty actions and words so take away their power to make you feel bad and have a laugh at their expense, imagine what they look like warts and all lol
Glad your back mark,RUclips not the same without you on here. But I understand what you're saying . Over the moon your back . I hope you and all your family are well x
Welcome back Mark! Loving your breeding videos at the moment. I'm trying to get my Julii (possibly false) to spawn with help from your videos. Keep them coming :)
Glad you're back. I appreciate your video's because it's not about the biggest, the most expensive, the rarest or most exclusive. I especially liked the local marine fish tank videos, probably I can relate to that more than a tropic aquarium (I'm Dutch). Please keep uploading, I'm learning a ton of things, also because you have a great way of telling.
I don’t know who it is that is copying you, but it’s only because they are incapable of doing it on their own. I appreciate your videos, you excitement for the hobby and your willingness to share your knowledge with the rest of. I understand taking a break, but give us a heads up next time, we get worried about you. 😆
Glad you’re back! Love you’re content. Block it out- with “FishTube” people are going to make videos. Don’t take it personal, although I’m sure it’s tough. Much love from California ✌🏻💕
I wondered if you were OK, glad you are back. Can’t say I’ve seen any channel to rival yours, and I’m not just saying that! If they are imitators, they are poor ones!
Glad to see you back - was a bit concerned for you with Covid around!!!! But glad all is well & just try to enjoy your hobby and what you share with us and ignore unkind comments etc!!! Fantastic that you have had those 2 fish for such a long time - well cared for obviously ! K
Hi, I'm relatively new to your channel. I think this video is absolutely fascinating. Very impressed. You're obviously extremely knowledgeable. I'll have to make time to check out your other videos. Thank you for sharing. Keep safe.
Glad you're back!! Your breeding videos are the best. Dan's Fish has mentioned you more than once in his live stream as a resource for breeding. I hoped you picked up some subs from that.....:)
Pleased to see you are ok buddy. I wondered what had happened to you. Sometimes we all need to take a break from things, you do what you need to Mark but always remember you are totally valued by us all, just ignore the negativity, you don’t need it.
I'm so glad you're back! Don't listen to any negative comments and let it get to you. You can get millions of views too! Your videos help me a lot ❤️ I've been wondering about the otocinclus cats
Hi Mark. I have missed your videos. No one presents things the way you do. You describe everything as I've been there done that and this is why this is how you go about things. Welcome back and I look forward to seeing more videos as they come out.
Long time aquarist, here. Been sub'd since I first watched one of your breeding vids. I guess its just a long way to say. Dont give up because of others. Only if YOU want to. That said, maybe I can give you a bit of advice. You mentioned harlequin shrimp as a means of asterina control. Youd need to farm those stars wholesale to keep up with harly's. Bumble bee shrimp, on the other hand, are very small. So, if those stars become a problem in a small system. Thats something to consider.
Just wanted to add. Bristle worms are excellent detrivores. They don't have the mouth parts to destroy coral, or rock. They are often confused with fire worms, which do have the parts. The only time they'll eat something you want, is if its dead, or dying.
Животные
You know what they say Mark, imitation is the greatest form of flattery. They may copy you Mark but you’ll always be the original and unique.🐠👍

Your breeding videos are such a valuable resource for me. I go back to them often. It is one of my favorite libraries of spawning info.
Dear Mark. You are absolut the Best in world full of copys. Bless you and all the best from Copenhagen Denmark.
