These little creatures have their own little haven where they can co-exist with a person that appreciates them. Seeing that little fish sitting on the leaf for hours just savoring the sun really brings me a sense of peace for some reason. Thanks for the video!
@@AP1millionCanadian Cost per Mille (I’m Canadian for reference) is 13.50 per 1000 views, plus the RUclips 45% cut of ad revenue alone he made approximately 200k *Edit to add,*this is after the RUclips pay cut and not including tax would probably be another let’s say 30% as an estimate, thats still approx 140k
@platinumaether8198 I'm sorry but what is cost per mile? I've never heard of it. As far as I knew youtubers could make as low as under a dollar per 1000 views so I'm curious as to where this 13.50 per 1000 comes from, especially for a "new" channel with only three videos
Fish absolutely can have personalities and it's so weird people argue against that. I've had tanks for the majority of my life now and I distinctly remember one fish that loved swimming at high speeds through the tank. He'd jump around, especially at night, but always stopped right before crashing into the glass. He was a joy to have.
I have a platy fish that liked to follow our disabled angelfish around and copy the way he Swam (swim bladder issue), he survived from a baby and didn't really like the other platties. Once the angelfish died, he was scared and we thought he wouldn't make it, but luckily we had bought some other platties after they all died (aka:The angelfish consumed every baby except the one) and he managed to get used to their presence. Now he bullies one that tried to fight him for the females! He is smaller than the other platies but he is the strongest.
The little noises you give the fish make me SO happy. This kind of contemplative, slow video is just wonderful, I can't wait to see where this channel goes next
I love the fact that you showed what went wrong and the painstaking efforts to fix the tank. Most channels show the final result without showing the horrors of algae bloom fixes and maintenance that define this art. Kudos to you, sir.
perfectly curated content. no excessively epic or loud music. no unnecessary cliff hangers. no excessive sound effects. it just coasts along perfectly. love it.
I hate being that guy but man I wish this dude would release another video. This is top tier aquarist content that just sprung up out of nowhere and if he keeps doing this he will dominate aquarist RUclips.
The gods of RUclips must have blessed you with their algorythmic angels. Nevertheless, I just love the funny fish chats and sound effect when they're eating and moving around, a hilarious comical feature that completes my day. By the way I'm wandering something? What happened to the first fish on this world? Where is the Adam here called little gourami? Did he jumped off and died when you go out to do groceries?
watched all the videos on the channel, saw they were all 8 months ago, and i thought "what could he be cooking up?" can't wait to see more. high quality stuff!
Look into terrariums!! There is so much diversity in possibilities of aquascaping and many channels that create diy terrariums you could take inspiration for or just relax to watching it
Dude just straight forward content, no Ads, no promo for nothin, just a man telling me about his little eco System and how he takes care of it and advancing it further, thats classic RUclips right here, keep up the good work man❤
Best part is the fish who would just sit on his favorite leaf enjoying the vibe of his lil' home, just sitting back, drinking a fish beer, enjoying his finest life in the ecosystem.
I come back to these videos occasionally and just realized something. This guy has only released three videos but he's got like 230k subscribers and millions of views. Most youtubers have to spend years putting out a video every week for those kinds of numbers, and from what i know about youtube monetization that's this channel generates a living wage now level numbers. This guy creates serious art, mixed with science which is my favorite kind of art! So he deserves the success for sure. I just hope he uses the success to create more great content, because I'm greedy for this kind of content.
It is diabolical that you have had the extreme patience & willpower to gather this much footage over so much time and to be able to bring it all together so perfectly into 3 fascinating video stories that catches me and so many others deep in our feels. 3 videos? This much polish? That many views in such a short period of time? Obsessed and grateful for your content. It is like a whole-body, meditative hug. Your builds are gorgeous without being fussy. The commentary is clever & not excessive or overdone. The editing feels light & fresh even though much thought must have been put into them. Please document & release more content on the inhabitants of your builds. Their day to day life, highs & lows, updates, inter species drama, the adorable and incredibly satisfying bloopy sound effects. Greedy ask I know, but… it never hurts to ask. The builds are what draws me in, but it is the daily lives & drama of the inhabitants that hold people like me fast. Thank you so much for your content!
it's rare that I sit down and watch all the way through videos like these (mostly just because my attention span isnt the best), but any time I stumble across your videos, they're always so relaxing! You dont make goofy jokes, you're not loud, there's no wild/funky background music... you're just giving us a direct, skilled process of making things! It's fascinating to see these ecosystems come to life!
I love that you showed accidentally cracking the glass and what you did to repair it. Small details like this will help people with their own projects in the future. I know I’d love to start a tank eventually.
I've just realized that these videos are so loved by all because their format is very similar to those cutsie, slightly educational shows that networks like Animal Planet used to make. The narration, the camera angles, the cute editing giving the fish personalities are all so perfectly reminiscent of those delightful shows. I want more!
I don’t know what’s best: your humour, your mastery of everything aquarium related, or the high quality video making. In any case, I look forward to keep seeing more! (Plz keep making these, they’re so good)
As a kid I've always loved aquariums, terrariums, and really just any ecosystem in a whole. Your videos make me feel connected with my child self, and honestly with a bit more research I'd love to make that childhood dream become a reality. I hope to see many more of your videos, and I will be watching all of them.
This the best, most cared for content I have seen in a very long time. The whole adventure was done perfectly. From the realities of repurposing an old tank and replanting/moving the scape multiple times, to the minecraft eating sound effect and the runescape music... I cant fully explain how amazing this video was! That tank looks amazing! Live plants and fish breeding brings the hobby to a different level!
Best aquatics videos along with the "no filter no co2 betta tank" that uses vegetables and fruit to filter water. I like that you aren't a youtuber in your presentation. You are a storyteller, an artist, and a human. I hate how commercial, formal and disingenuous we've become in youtube videos. This is a wonderful way to present your work, and the music and footage is top notch. Don't change anything and just enjoy the hobby for yourself like you seem to be doing currently!
Really inspiring to watch how everything came together and also the honesty of it when thing went wrong. But really wonderful that one can create a self-cleaning ecosystem. I used hate cleaning my fish tank when I was a girl - just too much time-consuming work. This system is just so much better! Well done!
My guy, this is some of the best aquarium content on this site! I absolutely love how you actually follow the progress of the tank and show us the progress of the ecosystem and all the quirky behaviors of the inhabitants instead of just setting it up and showing us 30 seconds of B-roll at the end. You've made something fantastic here!
This is the exact formula I need to see in a RUclips video. I loved this. I could honestly listen to him talk about his fish, and their intriguing little lives in this ecosystem again and again. Thank you sir. You earned a like and a sub
My friend- GIVE US MORE VIDEOS!!! I’ve been waiting four months - at least give us one per month! You inspired me four months ago to set up my first aquarium - don’t leave us hanging like this!!!
I love the personality you give to your deskmates as they go anout their business in their small slice of the world. Susan waiting to be fed, the Gobi and Cory just chilling on their leaves like a couple of old timers sipping coffee at a park bench. Its all so tranquil 🥰 Thank you so much for sharing! Especially as you go through your design process, its very helpful for a 'fry' like me, so new to fish and aquariums.
Thank you RUclips algorithms. I was not even looking for a video of this nature but when I came across it I couldn't resist. I have previously unsubscribed from multiple aquarium related channels and so to find your video was a well needed breath of fresh air. Looking forward to watching all your catalogue! Happily subscribed😊
I've been considering trying aquascaping but i always had this preconception that it had to be big and bold for it to really satisfy me. This video pushed me over the edge, showing it can be small and low maintenance and still shine! Thank you! 🐠 💕
@@ApatheticBlogger i can definitely imagine that! I started making terrariums a year ago and have quite the collection. On to the next hobby!!! My house is going to be like traveling the world lol!
Hey, for who wants to know: I have a nano tank now in the same size as the one in the video and just added my first cory's ❤️ thanks so much for the inspiration i am in total love and already suffering from multiple tank syndrome lol.
the lil animations / text bubbles and animal crossing sound effects next to the fish make me SO happy 😭 this is beautiful! the was their shadows dance on the desk in the sunlight 🥺 you must get so distracted while working lmao
This video is so relaxing. Stand out from others on the hobby, because RUclipsrs are just trying to explain how everything should be done through your throat. This is just satisfying. Can’t wait to see more content from this channel.
Please don't change your style. There isn't much like it in this niche - dry humor, goofiness, thrift appreciation, blatant honesty, modesty (even if carefully crafted - any attempt at the same is increasingly rare in the aquascaping/terrarium-building realm), and ridiculous sound effects. It's apparently scratching an itch for a number of us.
The little noises/faces you made for the fish conversations were so cute and funny! I loved seeing the process of how you made the tank, and also how it grew by itself!
Man I love this channel. As an outsider looking at this hobby, I'm so used to watch more "professional" youtuber like serpadesign and antscanada that have more tools and experience. It's nice seeing people makes mistakes and using the resources they have to full advantage. Seeing you make mistakes and learning from it helps me see the depth and mastery this hobby have. I can only hope the best of lucks in your endeavor. Seeing passionate people improves their craft really makes me happy ❤ P.S love your editing style and dry humour
I love the extra sounds you made for the fish and how peaceful the overall video was! I love my dwarf corydoras, they seem to love hanging out in broad big leaves :)
I just... can't believe that this is "just your first channel" and "just a try at making videos". Dude the editing, the filming, the narrative - it...I mean you have 100k subs after a few weeks so you're obviously doing everything right. Did you have another channel before, is this your very first attempts at fish tanks and eco systems? I'm so curious about how why and with what background this came together. It's amazing, I love it!
Thank you for your kind words :p This is my first attempt at all of the above, though I did have one proper tank before these that got me into the hobby (seen as the source of guppies in video #1). I just thought 'omg I could watch this all day I'mma make more and film it'
@@tanksfornothin wow in that case...just a big load of kudos to you - you are absolutely slaying it and I think your view numbers speak for themselves. I honestly didn't think that someone could just pull this off without any video making background but I guess you are a natural ^^ Amazing and congratulations, I am looking forward to more of your videos! 🤗 also what I forgot to add - the channel name is just.. *chefs kiss*. That made me subscribe before even watching 😂
As someone who absolutely Loved her fish and frogs as a kid (but hasn’t had any practice with an aquarium since then) it would be such a blessing to have a video in this format for a low budget beginner build! I’d love love love to give this a try - especially with the goal of having a self sustaining ecosystem! All three videos have inspired me so much to set that goal! It’d be especially helpful to have some troubleshooting as a starting point to refer to before making the decision to devote hundreds of dollars into the hobby (and time into the research!) Truly hoping to see more of this gold from your channel, even if it is just more of your own builds! ❤
I've recently gotten a microscope and it's taught me something important; dirt isn't just a good place for good bacteria, it's already got it. It's a great way to make sure the tank has a diversity of microorganisms to keep the water pure.
Out of curiosity and all, how long did it take you to plan this channel? It obviously wasn't just something that happened randomly, as you've got too many valid skills for running such a channel for it to be your first. Just to clarify, there's nothing wrong with this, but I am curious about it :p You're clearly aware of what you want the channel to be, and I look forward to watching what you make.
It took me 6 months to develop a style of presentation I was happy with, but I first had the idea about a year ago. Thanks for the kind words and recognising the journey :)
Beautifully produced video showing the highs and lows of producing a wonder environment. love the characterisations given to the inhabitants. It’s almost ASMR!
the second plant you had on the island is bucephalandra i believe! it probably died since it shouldn’t be buried in substrate like anubias because of its rhizome
You really have a knack for making these videos. They flow, make you laugh, tell a story, and manage to leave me feeling calmer and happier by the end. The tanks are beautiful and interesting too. Thank you!
I requested it and he actually did it! Honestly, such refreshing content considering the aquarium community can be quite monotonous. Even the big channels don't have this style of editing, narration and quirkiness to them
I’m not sure if you’ll see this, but your videos are literally addicting, thank you for being in my recommendations and allowing me to enjoy a small piece of what I like to call, the beautiful side of RUclips.
Don't give a shit _how_ long it takes, I await your next video! 🤗💕 EDIT: YOU are exactly what RUclips was made for. Pure perfection in every way, editing, voice over, calm & gorgeous projects all in one video?! You're gonna need a few dozen more friends & family just to house all these new world's you're creating!
The only two struggles I have are finding space for new tanks, and convincing friends to try fishkeeping. Basically you've solved both problems with one idea :)
@@tanksfornothin Just had an idea for you & your channel... Public school classrooms! They're just full of little humans that would LOVE to learn about these tiny self sustaining environments. Just imagine them sitting there watching it everyday & getting to see something new or exciting?! If you have too many, maybe reach out & set up a coffee meeting with a teacher or two from your old school if it's close by or reach out yourself to the closest one to ya? When you do get to chat _tell_ them about your YT channel & ask them if they would be interested in adopting a tank for their classroom?! You could always suggest that the whole class watch your video of their classroom tank under construction. You could set it up with the teacher that when they have finished watching THAT video right as it ends YOU WALK IN, WITH THEIR NEW TANK TO SURPRISE THEM! Maybe, you could film the new tank IN the classroom? (No kids & No you for privacy reasons of course.) Just the tank inside of the classroom & post it as a YT "short" to further promote your channel! Betcha, THAT would get the word spread around & keep your overstock low. Teachers from _all over_ your whole country would start emailing you for one of these beauties. Hope this helps you to inspire an entirely new generation of children, for years to come. Just think about how this could positively help the whole planet, one day?! Teaching little kids about how special & important the natural balance is.🤞🍀 You're fantastic & you deserve the best of what life brings to you. 💕💕

I can't get over the cute little guy who made himself at home on that leaf. He's just happy as anything watching everything go by, it's way too cute.
A W FOR THE FISH!
I think he's becoming self aware or philosophying
I agree WAYYYYY TOO CUTE
The idea of fish having little homes always makes me smile.
Same!
The calm tone, the straightforward explanations without clickbaity commentary, the subtle yet perfect little sounds edited in. Perfection.

I absolutely love how you actually follow the progress of the tank and show us the progress of the ecosystem and all the quirky behaviors of the inhabitants instead of just setting it up and showing us 30 seconds of B-roll at the end. You've made something fantastic here!
That's what compelled me to start! I think most channels prefer the speediness of putting up a tank in one day, then filming some results.
Please come back.
The Cory claiming that one leaf is soooo adorable!

This is the exact formula I need to see in a RUclips video. I loved this. I could honestly listen to him talk about his fish, and their intriguing little lives in this ecosystem again and again. Thank you sir. You earned a like and a sub
My friend- GIVE US MORE VIDEOS!!! I’ve been waiting four months - at least give us one per month! You inspired me four months ago to set up my first aquarium - don’t leave us hanging like this!!!
:))))))))))) SOON
Same
you gave me goosebumps
@@tanksfornothinWOOHOOO! 🎉🎉
BE MORE SPECIFIC lol
I love the personality you give to your deskmates as they go anout their business in their small slice of the world. Susan waiting to be fed, the Gobi and Cory just chilling on their leaves like a couple of old timers sipping coffee at a park bench. Its all so tranquil 🥰 Thank you so much for sharing! Especially as you go through your design process, its very helpful for a 'fry' like me, so new to fish and aquariums.
Another Tanks for nothing video so soon? We're really being treated this month!
Corydoras are the best. Love their little cute wiggling behavior. They are so interactive as well. What a beautiful tank ❤
Thank you RUclips algorithms. I was not even looking for a video of this nature but when I came across it I couldn't resist. I have previously unsubscribed from multiple aquarium related channels and so to find your video was a well needed breath of fresh air. Looking forward to watching all your catalogue! Happily subscribed😊
the only tank youtuber that comes even a little close to how amazing these videos are is SerpaDesign and even his videos dont hit the same
That's very kind of you to say
@@tanksfornothinwhyd you stop posting??
@@tanksfornothinif your posting somewhere else please do tell
I've been considering trying aquascaping but i always had this preconception that it had to be big and bold for it to really satisfy me. This video pushed me over the edge, showing it can be small and low maintenance and still shine!
Thank you! 🐠 💕
It's so fun and addicting! I started scaping big jars and now I have a whole collection
@@ApatheticBlogger i can definitely imagine that! I started making terrariums a year ago and have quite the collection. On to the next hobby!!! My house is going to be like traveling the world lol!
Hey, for who wants to know: I have a nano tank now in the same size as the one in the video and just added my first cory's ❤️ thanks so much for the inspiration i am in total love and already suffering from multiple tank syndrome lol.
12:00 The fish who found his chill out spot is so cool!
little dudes just vibin up there :D
bro made 3 Bangers and disappeared 😭
he is working on new content as he updates us on patron every few weeks or so. :)
@@Whispersofink-1how long should he be now? Is he planning on dropping multiple at one time like his current 3?
Fr he gotta be cooking 😂
@@Whispersofink-1 omg rly thank the lawd
🎉
the lil animations / text bubbles and animal crossing sound effects next to the fish make me SO happy 😭 this is beautiful! the was their shadows dance on the desk in the sunlight 🥺 you must get so distracted while working lmao
I love the little Cory that sat on the leaf to sunbathe and watch the world go by. What an interesting lil fella
this man is what all youtubers should strive to be, just good quality relaxing content
This video is so relaxing. Stand out from others on the hobby, because RUclipsrs are just trying to explain how everything should be done through your throat. This is just satisfying. Can’t wait to see more content from this channel.
I found this guy recently and it brought me back into the hobby can’t stop rewatching. Pls comeback 😂
There is something enchanting about a shallow water aquarium, like you took a slice of a possible creek you know.
I would almost call it a desktop pond
I don't think I've ever seen a fish "sit" on a leaf like that before. Really cute!
Please don't change your style. There isn't much like it in this niche - dry humor, goofiness, thrift appreciation, blatant honesty, modesty (even if carefully crafted - any attempt at the same is increasingly rare in the aquascaping/terrarium-building realm), and ridiculous sound effects. It's apparently scratching an itch for a number of us.
Glad you enjoyed :) I'm trying hard to match the feel with the next one which should be out soon
Man this guy made 3 masterpiece videos and dipped
The Cory and Gobi hanging out together is so cute, wonderful to see all the critters start feeling really at home in the tank!
The little noises/faces you made for the fish conversations were so cute and funny! I loved seeing the process of how you made the tank, and also how it grew by itself!
Man I love this channel. As an outsider looking at this hobby, I'm so used to watch more "professional" youtuber like serpadesign and antscanada that have more tools and experience. It's nice seeing people makes mistakes and using the resources they have to full advantage. Seeing you make mistakes and learning from it helps me see the depth and mastery this hobby have. I can only hope the best of lucks in your endeavor. Seeing passionate people improves their craft really makes me happy ❤
P.S love your editing style and dry humour
I love the extra sounds you made for the fish and how peaceful the overall video was! I love my dwarf corydoras, they seem to love hanging out in broad big leaves :)
That is such a beautiful aquarium and awesome video
The sound effects for the fish brought the whole video together. Brilliant.
I just... can't believe that this is "just your first channel" and "just a try at making videos". Dude the editing, the filming, the narrative - it...I mean you have 100k subs after a few weeks so you're obviously doing everything right. Did you have another channel before, is this your very first attempts at fish tanks and eco systems? I'm so curious about how why and with what background this came together. It's amazing, I love it!
Thank you for your kind words :p
This is my first attempt at all of the above, though I did have one proper tank before these that got me into the hobby (seen as the source of guppies in video #1).
I just thought 'omg I could watch this all day I'mma make more and film it'
@@tanksfornothin wow in that case...just a big load of kudos to you - you are absolutely slaying it and I think your view numbers speak for themselves. I honestly didn't think that someone could just pull this off without any video making background but I guess you are a natural ^^ Amazing and congratulations, I am looking forward to more of your videos! 🤗 also what I forgot to add - the channel name is just.. *chefs kiss*. That made me subscribe before even watching 😂
As someone who absolutely Loved her fish and frogs as a kid (but hasn’t had any practice with an aquarium since then) it would be such a blessing to have a video in this format for a low budget beginner build! I’d love love love to give this a try - especially with the goal of having a self sustaining ecosystem! All three videos have inspired me so much to set that goal!
It’d be especially helpful to have some troubleshooting as a starting point to refer to before making the decision to devote hundreds of dollars into the hobby (and time into the research!)
Truly hoping to see more of this gold from your channel, even if it is just more of your own builds! ❤
Give it a go and I'm here if you need help
the corydoras who likes to break off and do their own thing truly is the cutest and must be so fun to watch.
It's always the same one as well! I wonder what it's thinking :)
@@tanksfornothin Probably laughing at you, he seems like a cheeky bastard :)

@@titanoboa1485how do u know it's a boy
@@kkk-gf6sj I'm sorry I'm not afraid of misgendering a fish for joke, sheeeeesh
I've recently gotten a microscope and it's taught me something important; dirt isn't just a good place for good bacteria, it's already got it. It's a great way to make sure the tank has a diversity of microorganisms to keep the water pure.
I need a microscope!
Ive never been more relaxed watching a video. Very well cut and produced
I wish I was a fish in an aquarium it looks so fun and peaceful
Out of curiosity and all, how long did it take you to plan this channel? It obviously wasn't just something that happened randomly, as you've got too many valid skills for running such a channel for it to be your first.
Just to clarify, there's nothing wrong with this, but I am curious about it :p You're clearly aware of what you want the channel to be, and I look forward to watching what you make.
It took me 6 months to develop a style of presentation I was happy with, but I first had the idea about a year ago.
Thanks for the kind words and recognising the journey :)
@@tanksfornothinso what northern dutch city do you live in? Leiden by any chance?
@@tanksfornothin you knocked it out of the park! 👏👏👏
Clearly Leiden of Leidenschaftlich with his aesthetic creativity
Beautifully produced video showing the highs and lows of producing a wonder environment. love the characterisations given to the inhabitants. It’s almost ASMR!
the second plant you had on the island is bucephalandra i believe! it probably died since it shouldn’t be buried in substrate like anubias because of its rhizome
Ah looks like you're right! Thanks I was hoping someone would let me know ha
@@tanksfornothin Amateur mistakes happen - now you'll know better for next time!
common youtube educational W
the music and editing really put this over the top
The Runescape soundtrack in the background is golden.
You really have a knack for making these videos. They flow, make you laugh, tell a story, and manage to leave me feeling calmer and happier by the end. The tanks are beautiful and interesting too. Thank you!
So enjoyable to watch you build and develop this shallow live planted tank. Everything looks so healthy. Great job and video to document!
This is ART...as many have said. This was magical. It felt like a world that I never want to escape.
OSRS music+Fish tanks is probably the perfect combination I never thought could exist.
I requested it and he actually did it! Honestly, such refreshing content considering the aquarium community can be quite monotonous. Even the big channels don't have this style of editing, narration and quirkiness to them
Came here to say that haha
I’m not sure if you’ll see this, but your videos are literally addicting, thank you for being in my recommendations and allowing me to enjoy a small piece of what I like to call, the beautiful side of RUclips.
Thank you for making it here with your kind words
The editing was so good. The little sound effects made my day. Good work mate!
I think you’re one of the calmest and nicest people on the internet.
You have a beautiful aura my friend 🥰
💘
in just 3 videos you have more quality content that the 90% of aquarium type channels
Don't give a shit _how_ long it takes, I await your next video! 🤗💕
EDIT: YOU are exactly what RUclips was made for. Pure perfection in every way, editing, voice over, calm & gorgeous projects all in one video?! You're gonna need a few dozen more friends & family just to house all these new world's you're creating!
The only two struggles I have are finding space for new tanks, and convincing friends to try fishkeeping.
Basically you've solved both problems with one idea :)
Pls don't curse ma'am
@@seronymus _And,_ why TF not? 😂😂😂😂
@@tanksfornothin Just had an idea for you & your channel... Public school classrooms! They're just full of little humans that would LOVE to learn about these tiny self sustaining environments. Just imagine them sitting there watching it everyday & getting to see something new or exciting?! If you have too many, maybe reach out & set up a coffee meeting with a teacher or two from your old school if it's close by or reach out yourself to the closest one to ya? When you do get to chat _tell_ them about your YT channel & ask them if they would be interested in adopting a tank for their classroom?!
You could always suggest that the whole class watch your video of their classroom tank under construction. You could set it up with the teacher that when they have finished watching THAT video right as it ends YOU WALK IN, WITH THEIR NEW TANK TO SURPRISE THEM!
Maybe, you could film the new tank IN the classroom? (No kids & No you for privacy reasons of course.) Just the tank inside of the classroom & post it as a YT "short" to further promote your channel!
Betcha, THAT would get the word spread around & keep your overstock low. Teachers from _all over_ your whole country would start emailing you for one of these beauties.
Hope this helps you to inspire an entirely new generation of children, for years to come. Just think about how this could positively help the whole planet, one day?! Teaching little kids about how special & important the natural balance is.🤞🍀
You're fantastic & you deserve the best of what life brings to you. 💕💕
pls no curse
10:48 I love how the fish speak to each other in Animal Crossing 😊 Seems appropriate
This was the best video I've watched in a long time, I never wanted it to end. Thanks so much for sharing, I was so relaxed and transfixed
I've never seen aquariums like this. It's so dynamic and interesting.. I've never seen aquariums like this. It's so dynamic and interesting..
