I'm gonna agree with everyone saying a community reef pond would be beautiful. It would be so colorful and lively. And schooling fish are mesmerizing, even those four little Monos in that big as pond bring so much happiness lol. I don't know a lot about salt but figuring out how to do a mix of fish sizes and types where they can all live happily together and not be too predatory would really make the community pop.
This pond should be schooling fish like a community reef pond. And most people don't add coral to their pond, but I think this one would looks great with some coral spread around
Community reef pond with schooling tangs is something most of us reefers dream of doing in our small(er) reef tanks, but just can’t due to the size they need. Go for the tangs!
After seeing the painting granddad painted it be really cool to bring it to life on with bigger fishes, to bad there’s not large LARGER clown fish , like the big tangs etc it would be amazing to sit back watch a live painting. Then bring he out show him his painting come alive !
I’ve built 5 different saltwater tanks throughout my life so far, my largest is 250 gallons, not even close to the pond but mine is a big reef community and I’d have to say that a community pond would be absolutely gorgeous! Lots of movement, tons of socializing between different species and the colours
When I saw them I imeditalty thought of Eenie, Meene, Miney + Mo!! I have been enjoying these videos and checking for updates for almost four years now, keep up the great work inspiring me and the other Cuffaros!!!
*OmG* The Corals Were _BEAUTIFUL_ ...Heaven!! I Think You Should Go Big & A Lot Of Colour!! The Tester Fish Looked So Cute❤❤❤ Congrats They Look So Happy Swimming 🤩🐠🐟
People always go for "monster" fish, whether freshwater or salt, but it'd be cool to see more schooling fish in big aquariums or in your case, the pond. Granted, it would be cool to see big fish too. Maybe a mix of both, assuming they can cohabitate.
Absolutely second this tangs of all varieties and can be conditioned to be friendly towards all your schooling fishies by using a clear large acclimation bin victor talks about this with BRS I recommend it seriously you'll have a beautiful in absolutely no time Paul I'm so glad to see it filling with fish fan now
you should get lots of colorful schooling fish! theres alr plenty of predator fish content. no one else really has a massive beautiful colorful pond like this so i think you should do that. angles, clown fish, puffers, fish that are pretty and cute but also wont eat eachother
A very cool community pond especially since you have to anemones. A colony of clowns. Also tangs, angels, blennies and gobies. Would love to see how these would school and interact. I am sure you could get other stuff like wrasse and rabbitfish as well. Maybe ribbon eels and horseshoe crabs. There is such a wide range that would be so sick. And please some moonfish
I personally love the tangs. They come in so many different colors and shapes. But that saltwater pond is going to be amazing no matter what you put in it.
Been waiting for this. you should definitely do a community pond,imagine how beautiful it would look with corals and reef safe fish. I have a feeling your going to do a community pond
This video has been waiting to happen since the build of the pond. The 4 new tester fish look great. They have all of the water to swim in to their selves and the bottom creatures look great as well. Keep up the amazing work Paul.
You should definitely fill the saltwater pond with coral and make it an incredible reef pond. with 100's of fish and all the coral you can frag from the tank inside. Its content gold.
Honestly I wanna see some giant crabs in that pond, that would be super unique imo, also keep up the good work watching all the vids about the pond always excites me
Yes I agree 💯 with everyone doing a community pond with live coral reef and schooling fishes. I love when Paul puts up a video you know he always has something up his sleeve lol that pond reef will so amazing in the coming months can't wait to see that congrats Paul on such an amazing pond 🐠🐠💜
Start small with the tangs it’d be awesome to watch the whole growing process of them cause a tang pond would be awesome with a mix of others that can go with them
Paul, you’re right, I think you should go with the larger tangs for the pond. Vlaminigi, regal, sohal will grow large in there. The monos will also grow large and are a hardy fish
A community salt water tank would be amazing! I still vote for a Guitar Ray they look incredible! Also a full tank of Tangs would look insane so many awesome types like the Orange Bar tang! I don’t think anyone on YT has either of these fish.
I think emperor angel is a must they would look sooo amazing in that tank! Also they look beautiful even when they change colour. A ray would be cool aswell.
Paul you’re amazing you spent thousands of dollars to make us happy in the pond looks literally amazing. I built a turtle pond in the whole reason why I wanted to build a turtle pond is because you inspired me too.❤
Me again! There are all kinds of predatory ponds. I think a community tank would be a lot of fun and showcase different breeds of fish. I loved the tangs. Good luck with all your new pets!
Hey paull maybe you can chance the color of the bucket of the tree in your salt water pond to blend more with the rocks when you do a water change and the water is low 😉
@@desereesantillanes-torrez6823 thank you so much! Will be opening a vintage store & a nonprofit there. Can't wait.although I'm not looking forward to y'alls heat 😂
Maybe a community style with tangs and schooling fish and wrasse etc but like 1 grouper or 1 snapper or 1 large fish something like that so it’s like a real coral reef since there’s always so many small fish but then like 1 big grouper or something
Salt pond is looking zesty!! My sons say😊 Love idea of schooling fish as testers and for pond in future, they just look awesome traveling thru the pond.... Tangs would be good idea too. that stingray would be BA. Thx you for great video❤
Hello PC, I am one of your newest Culfaros. I, my wife and I have been watching you and Brinton for about 3 months. Not really sure how many GranFans you have but We are definitely old enough to be your Grand Parents. One if the reasons why I think we love watching you guys because you take be back before there was youtube. I use to get one if them plastic or metal pools and make my own ego system in the back yard. I grew up in Indian River County and there were so many little and big creatures it was l Iike a boys playground. I use to be so much like you I just did not have youtube. I hope someday I get to see your little farm and also some of your friends places like Blake, the reptile man, and the monkey man. You and Brinton make laugh and remind me of my youth. Thank you for that but most of all thanks for caring for our creatures. God speed.
Hey Paul , make it a community tank with perhaps a theme off any living coral barrier reef system in the world, it would look so goood!! All love from Malaysia.
@PaulCuffaro suggestion make the pond a community pond and put live Corals and put a Apex predator in it to where it’s a natural ecosystem and have the other fish / invertebrates / crustaceans to be able to breed so it never ends
It would be cool to get my first fish from pc aquatic I've had a fish before but I was young and didn't take care of it. Now that in turning 13 on September 30th I think I'm ready for my first fish!
Fish Name Suggestions: (Pokemon Edition) 1- Magikarp - when grows up into Gyrados 2- Goldeen - when grows up into Seaking 3- Remoraid - when grows up into Octiller 4- Finneon - when grows up into Lumineon or Fun Names combos: 1- Peeka 2- Boo 3- Splish 4- Splash
A maculosus angelfish would be awesome for the pond. Not too rare or expensive but a beautiful fish and I don’t know of anyone on RUclips that has one. And they get really big 🔥
Omg Paul you have to get that orange fish with the thick white lines in that tank at the 4 mins. 50 secs into the video! Actually just get all the fish in that tank I'm talking about!!!!
Heck yeah Paul get some big ol tangs for the salt water pond since they aren’t too crazy like predatory fish you could maybe add a crustacean to or sea star
Thanks for stopping in Paul! Always fun to have you around the shop, looking forward to seeing the “Tester Squad” in future videos! 😂
-Blaine
Can’t wait to see you build a DUI filter video
Suicide squad
@@whatsyours1Damn it, u took the name I was going to say. It literally the perfect name
Cool hope you get in some live sea coral in the pool too!
@@whatsyours1great name idea
A community salt water pond would be very interesting because youd get to see their 'natural' behaviors more.❤
I'm gonna agree with everyone saying a community reef pond would be beautiful. It would be so colorful and lively. And schooling fish are mesmerizing, even those four little Monos in that big as pond bring so much happiness lol. I don't know a lot about salt but figuring out how to do a mix of fish sizes and types where they can all live happily together and not be too predatory would really make the community pop.
Never seen another creator do a saltwater community reef pond. But either way I’m hyped to see what you get.
This pond should be schooling fish like a community reef pond. And most people don't add coral to their pond, but I think this one would looks great with some coral spread around
like a few pieces spread around like just imagine when they mature 😳
I personally love the idea of getting hundreds of smaller fish. Like actually hundreds of schooling fish.
Yeah you should definately make the salt pond a community. The possibilities are endless
I have a feeling he is going to do that but it would be dope
Omsim
With live coral as well 🤩
Know what I want to see a bunch of black mollies in the saltwater pond like a crazy ecosystem, that would be amazing
No
Community reef pond with schooling tangs is something most of us reefers dream of doing in our small(er) reef tanks, but just can’t due to the size they need. Go for the tangs!
PLEASE go for the community route with the pond. It would be so perfect!!
Just got to say Paul ..thank you for being an inspiration to so many young and old. Never change brother. ❤
After seeing the painting granddad painted it be really cool to bring it to life on with bigger fishes, to bad there’s not large LARGER clown fish , like the big tangs etc it would be amazing to sit back watch a live painting. Then bring he out show him his painting come alive !

Lots of movement, tons of socializing between different species and the colours
community pond for sure just imagine the amount off fish and structures plants would be amazing
Plus no other RUclipsrs have done this - that I’ve seen. It would be such a cool thing to see!
When I saw them I imeditalty thought of Eenie, Meene, Miney + Mo!!
I have been enjoying these videos and checking for updates for almost four years now, keep up the great work inspiring me and the other Cuffaros!!!
*OmG* The Corals Were _BEAUTIFUL_ ...Heaven!!
I Think You Should Go Big & A Lot Of Colour!!
The Tester Fish Looked So Cute❤❤❤ Congrats They Look So Happy Swimming 🤩🐠🐟
13:37 you definitely need to buy the tangs and snappers for the tank another cool fish for the tank would be sharks
People always go for "monster" fish, whether freshwater or salt, but it'd be cool to see more schooling fish in big aquariums or in your case, the pond. Granted, it would be cool to see big fish too. Maybe a mix of both, assuming they can cohabitate.

Hands down turn this pond into a community fish pond. That would be unique.
you should get lots of colorful schooling fish! theres alr plenty of predator fish content. no one else really has a massive beautiful colorful pond like this so i think you should do that. angles, clown fish, puffers, fish that are pretty and cute but also wont eat eachother
For the UV, you can take out the soft tubing and do hard pvc pipe. It will look much better.
💯% do a salt pond community with different species of large tangs and coral. So many directions you can go with that.
A very cool community pond especially since you have to anemones. A colony of clowns. Also tangs, angels, blennies and gobies. Would love to see how these would school and interact. I am sure you could get other stuff like wrasse and rabbitfish as well. Maybe ribbon eels and horseshoe crabs. There is such a wide range that would be so sick. And please some moonfish

Been waiting for this. you should definitely do a community pond,imagine how beautiful it would look with corals and reef safe fish. I have a feeling your going to do a community pond
Do loads of invertebrates! They never get enough love and some get huge! Those apple squirts were amazing
I think tangs would be great. You could put a unicorn surgeonfish in there eventually.
This video has been waiting to happen since the build of the pond. The 4 new tester fish look great. They have all of the water to swim in to their selves and the bottom creatures look great as well. Keep up the amazing work Paul.
UNI the sea Urchin is SO CUTE. I love that he is ruling the pond from up high. Thank you Paul for sharing your lovely creatures.
You should definitely fill the saltwater pond with coral and make it an incredible reef pond. with 100's of fish and all the coral you can frag from the tank inside. Its content gold.
Do a Community. Giant schools are the way to go with these projects. You would even be able to have a school of tangs
The OG Cuffaroes will forever always remember *Phoebe & Pocket the pet rats!* 🐀🐁✨️♥️💯
Honestly I wanna see some giant crabs in that pond, that would be super unique imo, also keep up the good work watching all the vids about the pond always excites me
I think a huge community tank is the way to go! I would probably put the mangrove light above the mangrove for best results
I hope you get the stingray would look beautiful in your pond
I think is would be super super cool to have a army of tangs and it’s different then anything I have ever seen so it’s super cool!
To see Paul’s sincere joy he got when the fish went in is a vibe!
Keep doing you Paul! #PC
Yes I agree 💯 with everyone doing a community pond with live coral reef and schooling fishes. I love when Paul puts up a video you know he always has something up his sleeve lol that pond reef will so amazing in the coming months can't wait to see that congrats Paul on such an amazing pond 🐠🐠💜
So excited to see fish in that pond. You should name them Leonardo, Michelangelo, Donatello, and Raphael.
^^^ Thats what I was gonna suggest lol.
i like it@@K1gixxergoneK6
i like it soo much
Start small with the tangs it’d be awesome to watch the whole growing process of them cause a tang pond would be awesome with a mix of others that can go with them
Was cool too see those 4 lil fishies swimming around all together 🐡 ...?. Many times cheaper does work better then the more expensive stuff
Paul, you’re right, I think you should go with the larger tangs for the pond. Vlaminigi, regal, sohal will grow large in there. The monos will also grow large and are a hardy fish
I agree, tangs, angels, wrasse etc. You can put so many more fish in the pond. Everyone has big predatory ponds.
A community salt water tank would be amazing! I still vote for a Guitar Ray they look incredible! Also a full tank of Tangs would look insane so many awesome types like the Orange Bar tang! I don’t think anyone on YT has either of these fish.
Paul posted yay

Full Predotor Tank: Blue Dot Stingray, Horn Shark, Eels, Grouper and Snapper, plus some massive tangs!
Go with the big tangs, angels, triggers, wrasses. Would be a super colorful and active pond.
Would love to see a community tank with live coral and enenimies
id love like a huge community pond for the saltwater pond, they’re a lot more lively (no hate against the poolpond lol)
Finally, it feels like I’ve been waiting for years, but in reality, Polyphemus, I don’t know
I have one and only one request on a fish I think that put in the pond shark please I wanna see a shark
You know its a good day when Paul posts a 20+ minute video
I think emperor angel is a must they would look sooo amazing in that tank! Also they look beautiful even when they change colour. A ray would be cool aswell.
You should use a few Kessil 500x for the tank and for the mangrove. You can hang them all the way at the ceiling
Paul actually looks through his comments for advice
Massive Respect from CA
It’s crazy how far you’ve come Paul, so happy for you
Paul you’re amazing you spent thousands of dollars to make us happy in the pond looks literally amazing. I built a turtle pond in the whole reason why I wanted to build a turtle pond is because you inspired me too.❤
Me again! There are all kinds of predatory ponds. I think a community tank would be a lot of fun and showcase different breeds of fish. I loved the tangs. Good luck with all your new pets!
I think hundreds of smaller reef fish schooling would be the best! Plus some big tangs. Keep up the great job
Man I know it limits what you can put in but I would love to see the pond as a reef tank. Would be beautiful.
Seeing those fish go into the salt water pond hit different.
Grandad got talent!!👏
Ask Brenten to name the 4 fish! He always comes up with the best and funniest names🤣
Honestly every fish u suggested is a great idea and can go with huge tangs and angle fish
Hey paull maybe you can chance the color of the bucket of the tree in your salt water pond to blend more with the rocks when you do a water change and the water is low 😉
The moment we have all been waiting for! Cannot WAIT to see what you got!
Me too
So excited for this video,while I won't be able to do salt water, you definitely inspired me to try a little fresh water when we move to new Mexico ❤
Fellow New Mexican here. Welcome to this beautiful state.
@@desereesantillanes-torrez6823 thank you so much! Will be opening a vintage store & a nonprofit there. Can't wait.although I'm not looking forward to y'alls heat 😂
Can we all appreciate the time and effort he puts into these types of videos ❤😊
Maybe a community style with tangs and schooling fish and wrasse etc but like 1 grouper or 1 snapper or 1 large fish something like that so it’s like a real coral reef since there’s always so many small fish but then like 1 big grouper or something
Salt pond is looking zesty!! My sons say😊 Love idea of schooling fish as testers and for pond in future, they just look awesome traveling thru the pond....
Tangs would be good idea too. that stingray would be BA. Thx you for great video❤
*I hope that your pets are doing well and okay, Paul.* 🐟🐠🐡♥️💯
I think we should make the saltwater pond a tang reef with tons of tangs and other community fish
Do a FOWLR tank with Some crazy Eels and triggers, maybe angels too. That’s be crazy!

Hey Paul , make it a community tank with perhaps a theme off any living coral barrier reef system in the world, it would look so goood!!
All love from Malaysia.
You should do local florida fish. Snook,red drum,sheepshead, grouper,snapper. So on.
@PaulCuffaro suggestion make the pond a community pond and put live Corals and put a Apex predator in it to where it’s a natural ecosystem and have the other fish / invertebrates / crustaceans to be able to breed so it never ends
paul 2 videos away from 1000 gotta do a special video for the BIG 1000 that’s crazy content MACHINE
Before you said anything alls I could think of was how cool a big tang tank would be! Orange shoulder, vlamingi, unicorn! Can’t wait to see this!!
Paul that’s a great idea…… imagine the pond full of TANGS and ANGELS!!!! Never seen that before
Community pond is the way to go!. Can get some tangs and angel fish to grow big in there
Community pond with lots of small fish for sure, would be so much colour and movement
Hey Paul…Thank You for taking us to TopShelfAquatics! That place is amazing! Looking forward to 100k likes to see the StingRay added to your tank!
You should Get a Moon Tail Sea Bass for your pond
It has that gold fish kind of color which will stand out in you pond
Hey Paul I would Love to see a peppermint Angel fish for the pond If you can't it's ok, Love your videos
You could also name it Minty
It would be cool to get my first fish from pc aquatic I've had a fish before but I was young and didn't take care of it. Now that in turning 13 on September 30th I think I'm ready for my first fish!
Fish Name Suggestions: (Pokemon Edition)
1- Magikarp - when grows up into Gyrados
2- Goldeen - when grows up into Seaking
3- Remoraid - when grows up into Octiller
4- Finneon - when grows up into Lumineon
or
Fun Names combos:
1- Peeka
2- Boo
3- Splish
4- Splash
Community Pond for sure! And definitely name your fish The Fantastic Four!
I love the large tang idea, could also add large angels and wrasse.
Man, that puts a smile in everyone’s face!! 🔥
Ye go with the 1s you said the tangs and that squirrel fish would look stunning...love the channel..❤
great video! btw, you should swicth out those metal hose clamps to plastic ones. theyll start to rust with the salt water.
A maculosus angelfish would be awesome for the pond. Not too rare or expensive but a beautiful fish and I don’t know of anyone on RUclips that has one. And they get really big 🔥
Omg Paul you have to get that orange fish with the thick white lines in that tank at the 4 mins. 50 secs into the video! Actually just get all the fish in that tank I'm talking about!!!!
Tang theme would be sick! But you should try a Great Barrier Reef themed pond.
Go with community fish. Big angels, tangs. Stuff you can graduate into from your “small” tank.
Heck yeah Paul get some big ol tangs for the salt water pond since they aren’t too crazy like predatory fish you could maybe add a crustacean to or sea star
Doing the live coral in your large pond gives you so many more opportunities. I really think you should do.
So glad Wawa has made it all the way from Jersey down to Florida
Get this man to 100k we all wanna see the stingray
You should try to do a flordia reef fish tank with fish you catch like hogfish, needle fish, small snappers, and tangs
The UV should be elevated on the output end so that air doesn't get trapping inside the cylinder.
It would be so cool if you get a American paddlefish’s ❤
You guys better LIKE because I WANT TO SEE THAT STING RAY! So cute.
Haven't seen Cornelius in a while. I hope he is good. 🐸🐸🐸
Definitely community pond I think colors would be awesome
