    I feel like your tank could use a closeup live stream with that music running in the background. Would definitely watch it all day!
  • @JustAnotherTom
    Why is this in my recommended Watches video Oh that was lovely
  • @yeeyee310
    I love how you just kept finding the dragonfly nymph and just zoom right into it 😂
  • @6666Imperator
    when you removed the eriocaulon and said it might have made it, I had a tear in my eye. Seems it was fighting hard :/
  • I still don’t know how big your cat is, could you show us your cat next to itself for size comparison
  • @loviebeest
    I really love the fact that you have a dragonfly nymph. they are known for being the indicator of a very clean water ecosystem. And the way you edit the video really makes it so relaxing. thanks for sharing with us ^^
  • @notcoolbreh
    This made me so emotional and appreciative of life like I’m crying over a tank full of plants and shrimp
  • @RageNineteen
    This is seriously impressive. So calming and lovely.
  • @bethiguess1695
    the shot of the plant giving off air bubbles is so cool!!!!!
  • @rahul-qm9fi
    3:41. I always think during his videos what that thing was and now I find out he actually made it himself. I feel like I just watched a superhero origin story.
  • @jaxon12kh
    I'm emotionally attached to that dragonfly nymph
  • @titozanella7704
    I am so damn ignorant in these “things”, but this vid make me think about all the love that a human being could give to the planet earth ...the incredible power of Mother Nature.... I am deeply grateful for this wonderful gift, this is the most beautiful video I ever seen in my life, it touched my little soul. Maybe all my worries all my troubles were necessary in my life, because they take me by my hands until this moment. Thank you Deeply thank you

    I like the floating plant separator idea!
  • @laurabeth3749
    the white part of the magnet in the back looks like a crescent moon and it only adds to the beauty of this
  • @kimdawcatgirl
    Between the beautiful music and the lovely waterscape, I could watch for hours...
