Horrorshow_Georgia Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 Hi @Cory, hi Nerms! I want to thank you for creating this great community and helping make the hobby better. I was hospitalized last September due to a suicide attempt. When I finally was able to come home, I was sober and emotionally raw and watching coop videos gave me a safe space to retreat to and motivated me to become a better fishkeeper. I built a pond this spring and followed your video to make a bucket filter for it! I know this is sappy or maybe TMI, but I want you to know that your channel is a bright spot for someone who spent a decade in a dark, dark place. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HonourWest Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 Welcome to the forum! I'm sorry to hear that you've had such a rough time. Hopefully the fishkeeping hobby will remain a point of positive focus in your life. 🙂 A pond sounds like a lot of fun. What are you planning to keep in it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horrorshow_Georgia Posted June 18, 2021 Author Share Posted June 18, 2021 @HonourWest Thank you! I have ramshorn snails, pond snails, and a few comets (feeder goldfish). The goldfish are so fun and they'll eat out of my hand. I also have water hyacinth, water lettuce, salvinia, a water lily, and duckweed! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
