Really enjoyed your channel & learnt a lot from your vids. Thanks for replying to my comments and helping out! One request would be to carry on the tank/pond tours but I am looking forward to the new content 👊
I have not been around for very long but I have enjoyed your channel. And this is life, you only have one, so change, evolve be whatever makes you happy. Each part of life is a season and you have come to the end of this season and starting a new one. Personally I am looking forward to seeing where this season takes you.
Hope you dont quit! I literally just found your channel, What you are describing is what I go through every year, feeling like I want to leave youtube because I cant make the videos that people want to see, you then end up mass producing videos that don't do so well and it gets you down, I decided I will only make videos from now on that I want to make so that's no more filler content.
I love the content creation and I won't stop! Just need to expand. Goldfish unfortunately was too niche and I ran out of material. Lots more to come! Big changes coming
Wow so sad. But i understand is. Cant want to see your new contant. And again thanks for the kind Words on my set up ❤ hope the fish find a Nice home. Happy fish keeping ❤
Understandable. I’ve been all around the hobby, started with Goldfish, then Aquascapes, Cichlids, Stingrays, then marines; I’ve now come full circle. Back to keeping goldfish, breeding them and keeping the different varieties. Changes within the hobby are great! Enjoy what you do.
Thank you for consistently delivering fantastic, high-quality videos Chris. It's been a pleasure watching your content over the past three years. Best of luck with your future endeavors-I'll be eagerly awaiting what comes next!
Sorry to hear this Chris, I wish you every success in whatever you decide upon and I'm pretty sure I'll still pop on and watch.......as long as there's a goldfish in it 😂 I know what I like 😊
Really going to miss the fancy goldfish mega tank :(. However, I am glad you're branching out to other fish. Your experience in the hobby will be a helpful tool to other people in the fish keeping hobby. As for what I think is going in the mega tank....monster fish tank! Good Luck! Praying everything goes well!
Change is good! Knowing when it's time to evolve and doing it is admirable. Can't wait to see your new content, I hope you don't delete all your past goldfish content here tho! It's still an amazing portfolio of videos 🧡
It's important to do what makes you happy and excited, that's where magic happens, and if you're passionate, your content will naturally be more engaging, Good on you for following your heart. I will miss your stunning gold fish, but I am excited for you to start a new chapter, with a clean slate ❤
Great decision You done great job and exchange Knowledge in your videos And move on And explore new Venture in future Good luck And best wishes Thank you From beautiful California USA
Would love to see what you do on a daily basis. As far as I can find you're one of the only fancy goldfish channels but change it up.. but don't forget the fancy goldfish all together LOL you do you! We will follow
Chris. Thanks for a really good run of great fancy videos. Has been a pleasure to watch . Best of luck in everything you're about to embark upon. Will be looking out for it.
Wanted to finally say hi for the first time. I kept orandas from 2021 to 2023. I don't have any fish now but after experiencing all the work that goes into maintaining a tank, I appreciate aquariums of all types and will definitely continue watching. In a similar story, I have a personal technology blog but I only post every 3 months or so. It doesn't seem like much but in my own experience I learned that the things you would do without a care for money or attention is what your true passion is. If I started writing posts on a schedule or had to deliberately think of new content, I would definitely burn out. I write only when I discover something I feel naturally compelled to talk about and as a result it's never once felt like a chore. You mentioned you've always done RUclips for fun, so the correct way to run the channel is to do what is most fun for you. Looking forward to everything to come.
Thank you so much! Yes I feel burnt out making videos in such a niche, whereas I have so much more to share in other areas of aquatics! Lots more to come and I'm looking forward to it!
Film your job dude, becoming a general aquatics channel sounds super intresting and I'd love to watch that. Also filming clients tanks and showing maintenance regime's and fixing aqaurium problems. You could also try your hand at aquascaping?! Really looking forward to the future!
Hey Chris, I would say sorry to hear this, but that would be like feeling bad for someone who has NEW opportunities on the horizon as well as making choices for their own well being. I'll be rooting for you.
As someone who did solely fancy goldfish years ago,(stopped due to a major die off ) and picked up different freshwater fish(shrimps, nanos, SA Cichlids, etc) I completely understand this decision and am excited to see your next steps! There’s no shame in moving on from fancies, and focusing on other interests in the hobby! While I wish you shipped to the US so I can claim some of your beauties (lol!), you’re doing the best for your babies! Best of luck going forward, and looking forward to your new projects!
Chris, you are such a genuine and passionate guy that I’d stay subscribed to you even if you started making content on the varieties of dust! You need to cover (and keep) what you feel enthusiasm for - and I can’t wait to see what other types of aquarium and fish you show off and share knowledge about. I used your channel to re-learn goldfish keeping last year, and my three water piggies are better off because of your videos and advice - so I’m sure your new videos about wider fishkeeping will help even more newbies keep happier and healthier fish of whatever variety you cover! I think it’s great that you’re going to share your knowledge and not just stick to fancies. I’m looking forward to seeing whatever you do next, and maybe even discover something new that I want to go on to explore! Lots and lots of luck and good wishes 💛
Even though I have goldfish now I still found tons of information from other fish keepers that have different fish. In the aquarium hobby it seems you never stop learning. Even something like you can use an old credit card/membership card to scrape algae off the inside of your aquarium. I've never even thought about using a plastic card! It's the little tips and tricks you can learn from a fellow hobbyists no matter what fish they keep that helps to keep you learning. If you would like to film different fish content I think that would still be absolutely beneficial to viewers like me!
Chris. You are an inspiration to many new you-tubers like me who love fish keeping I always wondered how to get content and you showed that even a mega tank could give us content and capture many fish lovers all over the world I wouldn’t want you to quit Instead just continue doing it and meanwhile visit other aquariums as well Just a honest request
Its alright Chris, we should all do what makes us happy and I get what you mean with there’s not much more content to film since I am extremely satisfied with my fancies n the whole tank set up- unless I am planning to add more fancies I feel like this is it. I have my medicines n supplies all stocked up so I feel like what more can I really do for them- they are happy and so am I. I also really enjoyed your day in the life at your job, it was very interesting but I get it that it could be quite hectic doing your job and having to record it at the same time. Plus it could be quite interesting to learn about other types of fishes too- since I’ve only focused on fancies so just do what you like and see how it goes. Hope all your fancies go to good homes and get well taken care of because they really are phenomenal😊
Well, I just found this channel, and as sad as it is to see the goldfish go, I 100% empathize with the need to revamp your content around your passions to keep yourself engaged because in the end YOU are the one making the content. People shouldn't complain because they/we are getting ALL of this great stuff for FREE because you are an awesome person who loves what they do. Artists can't make good work if the spark isn't there. As long as the older Goldfish videos stay up (cuz I got a lot to learn still) I'm a happy camper! And best of luck as you move forward into new and exciting things! I can't wait to see what comes of it. Definitely staying subscribed! PS - have NEVER in my life wished I lived in the UK more than right now! LOL Those fish are G-O-R-G-E-O-U-S!!!
Hi Chris , thank you for all of the advice you have given me in the past about caring for fancy goldfish. I have learned a lot from your channel . Particularly on the filtration side . I would be interested in how you make sure that your goldfish will be going to good homes. I have 2 fancy goldfish in my pond and when summer is over I will need to sell them or buy a second hand aquarium for them as I don't think they are hardy enough to stay outside. However if I sell them I too would want them to have a good home. I am really looking forward to your future content as I really like garden ponds and different types of fish. Best wishes to you in your new venture. I will most certainly be remaining a subscriber . 😊🐠🐟🐋🐡🦋🐝☀️😎🐢🦎
Keep the fish mate and just stop producing videos, personally I couldn't be bothered with making videos. It's very hard work for little reward. I just keep my fish. Enjoy your trip to Thailand,very well deserved, and be present there with yourself, don't view the whole place through a lens! Enjoy the experience. I hope a big thank you from me and other subscribers is reward enough for you for now. I've really enjoyed your videos 👍
so you just bought the fish to do video? I thought they were pets? Aren’t you responsible for these animals now? I mean, go ahead and get rid of them but not a very good message.
Sorry to hear this. You've taught us a thing or two & it's been a pleasure especially seeing those beautiful fish. I hope you continue to care for them, for they have a home with you. I wish you all the best in your venture.
Sad to hear, but totally understandable. If you want to create more content, you can't just stick to one fish or tank. Sadly thats what it is today. But i wish you everything good and i will stay subscribed👍 For the Facebook group i would love if you would do a goldfish only sub group, as i am already in hundreads of other all fish groups, and the fancy group had the best content for goldfish as in other goldfish groups
What a shame. Obviously, you need to do what's right for you though. I'm very interested in your work and wider aquatic knowledge and experience, so looking forward to seeing that; and am sure the new content will be great. Real shame you feel the need to let the fish go, though. I'd have them all in a heartbeat if I could. D
So devastated. I love your fish, i wish i could get one of your amazing fish. Please keep making fish videos, i didn't know you did this for a living at all! Would love to see your experiences supporting other tanks and ponds.
Hi That's sad,why don't you still cover gold fish on this channel, but do less videos ,1 a month Magazines come out every month ,I look forward to them. But ,OK great channel 👍
I'm glad to hear you're doing what will make you happy. I just found your channel but can't wait to watch more of your videos.
Thank you 😊 🙏🏼
But your videos are so beautiful! This tank is the most gorgeous I've ever seen!! 😢
Really enjoyed your channel & learnt a lot from your vids. Thanks for replying to my comments and helping out!
One request would be to carry on the tank/pond tours but I am looking forward to the new content 👊
Thank so much! Yes definitely plan to!
Good luck! Looking forward to seeing what you’re gonna do!
Thank you Hannah!

Awesome! I'm very excited about the future!
It will all work out mate and best of luck I’ll still have a watch 👍🏼👍🏼 wish you all the best
Thanks so much!

Thank you so much!
Good for you! Everyone reaches a burn out point. I certainly would. Life is more than social media!
Thank you!
I've only been a follower for 13 months or so, but I'm excited to see changes and looking forward to your new endeavors.
Thank you so much!
Sorry to hear this Chris, I wish you every success in whatever you decide upon and I'm pretty sure I'll still pop on and watch.......as long as there's a goldfish in it 😂 I know what I like 😊

Thank you! Yes all the videos will be staying 😁
The most important thing here is that you are happy doing what you like. Keep the hard work 💪
Legend! Thank you
It's important to do what makes you happy and excited, that's where magic happens, and if you're passionate, your content will naturally be more engaging,
Good on you for following your heart.

Id definitely snap up a few if i had my 450L running, beautiful fish

Sure hope they go to knowledgeable people. Beautiful fish.
Film your job dude, becoming a general aquatics channel sounds super intresting and I'd love to watch that. Also filming clients tanks and showing maintenance regime's and fixing aqaurium problems. You could also try your hand at aquascaping?! Really looking forward to the future!
Awesome! Definitely! I aquascape quite a few tanks, so will be sure to record them going forward 😁
Hey Chris, I would say sorry to hear this, but that would be like feeling bad for someone who has NEW opportunities on the horizon as well as making choices for their own well being. I'll be rooting for you.
Thank you so much! This means a lot
I think it’s great to change it up! Hopefully you keep some of your videos on the channel so we can always revisit!
Yes all the old videos will be staying 😁

He diched the colour and beautiful fish for plan colours and boring fish
If we all had the same opinion there would be no variation in the world, things cant always stay the same...
Chris. You are an inspiration to many new you-tubers like me who love fish keeping
I always wondered how to get content and you showed that even a mega tank could give us content and capture many fish lovers all over the world
I wouldn’t want you to quit
Instead just continue doing it and meanwhile visit other aquariums as well
Just a honest request
Thank you so much! I will continue and expand my videos 😁🙏🏼
Oh yeah definitely branch out, expand knowledge using the already established platform. Good luck to you Chris
Thank you so much! Thisnisnt the end, just the beginning
Thanks for the videos it was much appreciated 👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you! Lots more will be coming soon
Where can I buy beauties like this for my pond?
What country are you in?
Its alright Chris, we should all do what makes us happy and I get what you mean with there’s not much more content to film since I am extremely satisfied with my fancies n the whole tank set up- unless I am planning to add more fancies I feel like this is it.

Thank you! I love making videos though and really enjoy it! So just need a change of scenery really. Plenty more to come and a new journey begins
Call the channel Fish Fanatics and carry on with whatever type of content interests you.👍
Not able to find the video of your awesome inbuilt sump
So sad 😢will miss all your videos good luck 👍
Hey man to bad I'm in Ireland Andrew here from discord 😢 I would of bought them of U Gona miss these guys how much
Get dojo loaches
U should get young and raise up or breed them before U sell
And document there growth
So we have lost U and west coast
I see why you would no longer want to do videos, etc… but I don’t understand what you would sell the fish🤷🏻♂️
I just need a change up and something new to make content on 😁
so you just bought the fish to do video? I thought they were pets? Aren’t you responsible for these animals now? I mean, go ahead and get rid of them but not a very good message.
Sorry to hear this. You've taught us a thing or two & it's been a pleasure especially seeing those beautiful fish. I hope you continue to care for them, for they have a home with you. I wish you all the best in your venture.
You should do some fancy goldfish breeding you must have some nice breeders new content and new path
Yes I like the ideas
Sad to hear, but totally understandable. If you want to create more content, you can't just stick to one fish or tank. Sadly thats what it is today.
But i wish you everything good and i will stay subscribed👍
For the Facebook group i would love if you would do a goldfish only sub group, as i am already in hundreads of other all fish groups, and the fancy group had the best content for goldfish as in other goldfish groups
Thank you! Yes the facebook group won't be changing and will be staying exactly as it is still 😁
What a shame. Obviously, you need to do what's right for you though. I'm very interested in your work and wider aquatic knowledge and experience, so looking forward to seeing that; and am sure the new content will be great. Real shame you feel the need to let the fish go, though. I'd have them all in a heartbeat if I could. D
Much appreciated
So devastated. I love your fish, i wish i could get one of your amazing fish. Please keep making fish videos, i didn't know you did this for a living at all! Would love to see your experiences supporting other tanks and ponds.
Thank you! Yes I won't stop, just need to change it up a little bit 😊
Film your job, we would be interested.
Will do! Thank you
To bad I'm in Ireland
Just get some new tanks? But it’s not my opinion I have goldfish and cichlids and I’m planning to get more. You should never sell your friends.
Appreciate the advice, thank you 😊 🙏🏼
@@AquaticElements no problem!
@@AquaticElements do what you have to do! And what works best for you!!
Hi
That's sad,why don't you still cover gold fish on this channel, but do less videos ,1 a month
Magazines come out every month ,I look forward to them.
But ,OK great channel 👍
Yes I plan to still make goldfish content as well it will just not he the main feature 😁🙏🏼
É MAS OS KINGOS VERMELHOS,LARANJAS É AMARELOS É DOURADOS 😐😐😐
Totally disappointed.
That makes two of us
My advice is get off the Internet and enjoy your pets
I love helping and sharing information! This is my passion, I just need to have a change in direction
