    Man I really have to give you kudos because what you described took a lot of guts to do. A lot of people wouldn’t admit that and a lot of people wouldn’t say that on video. That’s why I like your channel that was truthful and that’s what happens with a lot of people but then again, a lot of people don’t do what you just did thank you for your honesty and I love your channel and I will always like it and watch it. Thank you so much and good luck with your store. I think you’ll do great.

    I received my Bug Buffet today and gave it to my fish, they love it.
    Like the way the pellets can be broken into various sizes to suit the fish being fed.
    Well done, thanks 👍🏻

    I honestly think your on the right track with your thoughts/methods on quarantining. Ive noticed plants and fish travel in kind of the same way, it stresses them out. Its the same for us when we move houses/jobs/countries, theres always an acclimation process. Wish more fish shops would adopt this approach.
    Love your stuff as always bro,love from perth

    I think you are making a correct decision able opening more to the public in your retail business. I am sure you will be very successful in this endeavor. The CZcams channel is a huge plus for this. It is a shame that I live in the United States or I would gladly buy from you 😢.

    With my Platty’s, I would put a pinch of Salt, for Salt Water tanks, and it seemed to help with any shock! I had the Sail Fin/Moon Fin Black & White Mollies. I would cross breed them, and what was Great, the Pet Store I got them from, would take the Babies back, and I would get my Fish Food for 2 Months! The mixed colors sold faster than the Black or White Mollies. You have me missing doing this!

    Can you make a video about how it's like owning a fish store, how you started, and eventually opening up to the public. Also advice as far as business wise and requirements. I live in Las Vegas, and there's very little LFS here. The potential is huge here!
