That type of a system is designed for self-recovery... just a matter of time now before the fish will be back in full force as well. I absolutely LOVE all those feral fish living in the sump... I could endlessly watch them all day. It's its very own community... :)

This is a guy I could have an endless conversation with.

I'm glad you and Suzie took some time for yourselves. You have to take a break. Continuing to pray for you guys.

Following Goliad Farms's recovery has been absolutely fascinating.

Grandbrats- priceless!!

I can't believe you are 70. I thought you were probably in your mid to late 50's.

How about a feeding tour someday?

This channel has become the reason I check KZread everyday. Love it. Using Barbara Walstad’s method before it was popularized as the Walstad method. OG.

I doubt you would remember me, but I managed a fish store in fort worth and yall would personally deliver your livestock. I loved getting orders from you because everything was healthy and absolutely gorgeous. You would deliver truly top show quality looking animals and we almost never lost anything that came from you. Sorry to have learned yall took such a bad hit from the storm. I look forward to watching you rebuild.

You have quickly become my favorite KZreadr! Good luck with the recovery!

Great smile Mr. Charles! 😁 Thanks for the updates and taking us through the vats!

your big smile throughout this challenge that was set before you is an inspiration .

This is an amazing system. Thank you for taking the time to record all of this content in the midst of a disaster.

THE HAIR CUT AND BIG SMILE JUST REALLY INSPIRING ! THE HAIR DO!!!

Hope you guys can catch a break from a weather disaster or otherwise! I love the setup of your farm and the fact that yall use a lot of natural ways to rid yourself of waste, including feeding deceased fish to your dogs. I became aware of your farm after watching the tour that aquarium co op did awhile back and I'm so glad that they made that video. You guys have in my opinion the most impressive fish farm I have ever seen. The amount of knowledge you have about all the plants and fish and everything is so entertaining. If i had to choose between going to a large zoo aquarium or touring your farm i would choose your farm and attempting to soak up some your knowledge 10/10 times! Best wishes from West Virginia!

Love the pups they must giving you great comfort right now.

Only a little ways in, happy to see you guys again. There are bulk head strainer parts that will pop right onto those pvc fittings. it will raise the water level slightly but should work perfectly. Excited for the scud tour! Im watching this one twice for sure, love the plant info too! :)

Sorry for your loss

It’s great seeing how much your recovery is coming along, and the increase I subscribers! Praying for continued success.

I’m glad to finally hear some more about the workings of this amazing and inspiring system. It’s not easy to get concise, general information from a man who has so many interesting stories to tell. I’d love to hear more information on a system level: what goes in, what goes out, water parameters, how stable is it, etc.
