Literally, I open the video and thought: "awesome to see this, it makes me miss the older videos and watching him just wake up and go to work and take us along."

I like this style of video very much indeed. Off the cuff flow and simple talking, but with substance. Guess I have to re-become a member for whatever was in that box, you tease.

Dang, I didn't realize how big the operation is. It's awesome that you're sticking with one store to maintain quality, but with luck franchising will be a viable option.

The retail part of the store is really not that big right now. The back area is twice the current retail space.

I'm partial to low production high output so the vlogs are a nice change of pace for me. But I do greatly appreciate and value of quality production Jimmy brings to other videos and there's always a place for those too. Have a happy new year team, I'm certainly looking forward to what the new year will bring.

I agree with this comment. There is something really nice about getting an old school vlog style video in addition to all of the high quality, amazing work that Jimmy puts together. I learned a lot from this video, and I honestly enjoyed it just as much as a Peru video that takes hours and hours to out together. Great, diverse content. Thanks Co-op team

LOVE THE VLOG STYLE!!!! CORY IS THE GOAT OF FISH KEEPING!!! He has boosted this hobby into the stratosphere! This guy is amazing with an amazing company

Thank you for caring about quality for our hobby. Keep your chin up you're killing it. Much appreciated

I love this older style of video! Thank you Corey!

Without ACO and the forum I would have quit the hobby. I will never forget being so new with my favorite guppy sick. Went to the forum and while getting him into the QT tank Cory responded and recommended treatment. I was so shocked that he responded...I felt like wow...what an awesome humble guy. I will always be an ACO fan, and continue to purchase and support this channel as a member and subscriber.

Glad to hear it worked out ;)

I really appreciate how candid and realistic videos like this are. I loved hearing about the expansions and why you don’t want to make more co-ops so that you can keep the quality high. I’m on the east coast but I’d love to make a trip out just to see the store at least once and support the business!

It’s awesome to see content like this, it really shows the little quirks that Cory and the team go through. Thanks for the great customer service, and I agree how the quality of service might go down if you open up to many stores. My order should be here in two days! Then off to save for another order since I’ll be starting a cherry shrimp tank😂

Can’t wait to get my hands on a couple of our bags, now that we get charged for bags in the stores. Great idea. You already know I love our hoodie! Great video. Happy New Year, boss. ❤️

We are all just chasing to catch up. I enjoy the vlog style. It's what pulled me in when I first found your channel. Just you taking me around the Co-Op, showing me what was going on, what fish you had, teaching me to build a fish room, teaching me to care for fish. I can't wait to get one of those insulated totes! The Co-op hoodies are great!

I will say I absolutely love and respect your business model. Just by watching these videos it’s nice that there are people that have integrity to do the right things. That’s why your succeeding. Congratulations on your accomplishments. You’ve got my support 100%!

Sitting down with some coffee and gonna binge some old Co-Op videos today! Hope all is well!

Going to be fantastic. I love the way you do business. You make money and still treat everyone very well. Wish I could work for someone like.

I love how you say Alaska and Minnesota. I live in Minnesota. It is -5 degrees outside. 11 am. "Stupid cold" was well spoken.

Hey Cory! Just want to let you know as one of the resident here that I am so happy to see your channel and your business growing and evolving as time continues . I started watching you since middle school and I always wanted to visit your store. However, I used to live in the Auburn area and I could not drive. Only done online back then. Now as an adult (23 now lol), I am living a bit closer to the area . Although I no longer keep fish, I hope to visit in Spring!

Congratulations 🎉🍾 on the expansion I’m so excited to see it when it’s done.

These Vlog styles are so amazingly informative and inspiring. I never knew I could care so much about someone else's business. My wife is a small business owner too and she also inspires me. Keep doin what you're doin, Cory. A lot of us are paying attention and learning.

Cory, you are the ultimate businessman! My hat's off to you! Thanks! 😃🐡🐟🦐👍

Love the vlogs! Honestly, every video that Aquarium Co-op puts out is beneficial to me in some way. Whether it's discovering a new product, learning a new way to do something or more about fish species I have not kept before, reviewing facts and helpful hints that I already know (but needed a reminder about!), helping to solve a problem I'm having in a tank, or something as simple as listening to Cory or Dean passionately talk about their fish rooms, every video is wonderful. Keep up the great work, and thank you so much for everything!

I really like the laid back, relaxed atmosphere of this. Seriously. Like the little details. Lol

These 'older style' vlog videos are great, there is no need to stress about editing or camera crew or anything like that, its great just to see whats been going on, same with the fish room too, i could easily watch simple daily vlogs form your fish room Cory. 5 minutes long or fifty minutes long - what-ever, love them all.😄

Glad to see you hired professionals it's looking good. Let them do their job and you'll be happy for a long time. Looks like your well on your way to having a quality renovation.

LOVE LOVE LOVE this type of video: catch up on ACO happenings...and real talk?! Sign me up!

I love videos like this. It’s just like the good old days everything is looking grate Cory can’t wait for the next one hope you have a grate week

Loved seeing the warehouse working away. I work in warehouse and fully understand the big push. Honestly, makes me wanna jump in and help lol

More like this please, behind the scenes and a micro podcast style is really enjoyable

I’ve said this before, but one of my favorite things about Cory is how up front he is with business stuff. A store getting charged $200/day for a container that hasn’t been been cleared for reasons beyond the store’s control is truly crazy and an added cost I never even thought about.

I like these behind the scenes type of videos a lot! It's cool to see everything that goes on and all the steps that are being taken to make our experience as a customer even better. Thanks!

I enjoy all of your videos. I also use them to educate my grandchildren in the hobby. Best practices what to expect with certain fish and so on. They are just getting started my daughter is also about to get back into the hobby as well. Live plants is not something that was widely available back in the day so I am getting educated also. Thank you for all the hard work you and your employees put into our hobby.

Way too cool! I love how you test everything and you aren’t afraid to double down on your company.

Love the behind the scenes of your operations! The Aquarium Co-Op hoodie is my go to everyday hoodie, I love it!

I personally enjoy this type of video more than just about any other kind. Keep em’ coming when you can.

It doesn't looks like too much snow until it's there forever and a day❄️🤣 Happy New Year Cory and Aquarium Co-op!! I really enjoyed the Vlog and getting to just hang out for a moment. I know I haven't been around for a long time in the fish fam, but I have enjoyed watching old videos from the humble beginnings to getting to know you over the past 2 years!! Every time something new comes out from the Co-op I look back and see how steps were taken and how you did things the way you did. You have built a quality brand that we can trust and that truly means something!! Especially for someone who may not have a big budget, we can trust and depend on the things that are important and available for all of us to succeed in the hobby. Watching Aquarium Co-op build a solid foundation that you and your talented the team has created today. It's nice to feel like you can watch a video and you know that person like they're your neighbor!! That's pretty special in my book!! I hope everyone there has a safe and happy New Year!! Here to 2022🎉🎊🥰🌿🐟🌿🙏

Well done Cory! Thanks for the update and can’t wait to see the new addition to the store.

This is why I am so thankful to be local to aquarium co-op! Always improving and can't wait to walk in a few months and see the new space! Also loving the design of the bags, cant wait to pick one up if I'm not spending all my money on new Aquarium builds haha. I think its good that your keeping it to 1 store to be honest. It makes it feel that much more special walking in knowing I'm getting a unique experience I can't really get other places. Also looking forward to more fish unboxing videos! Those are always fun to watch.

You must be tired, working hard all day because you said, "We're still in 2021" when it is 2022 when you were explaining the fritz products. Time catches up on all of us. Make the most out of all your aquariums dreams. Remember it's 2022. Happy New Year.

Is so amazing to see your journey through out the years! Keep it up Cory!👍😃

Love these long form vlog videos Cory! They’re the perfect compliment to water change day

Love these videos. It’s like having lunch with a fellow business owner and getting caught up

Love the behind the scenes stuff, great video Cory...

This was great. I am so excited for Aquarium Co-Op for 2022.

I treated myself to an oversized aquarium co-op zippered hoodie and I’m so happy I did! Besides the fact that I love it, it’s also a great conversation starter. 🐟

Wish I could come help build the store haha. Construction is the other half of me aside from fish. Thank you for the great video!!

I too love my Aquarium Co-op hoodie, it's so cozy and warm! Great video, love the updates!

Totes are probably like 3 months out or so. They are in production here soon, then have to ship etc.

I love these videos! Really enjoy learning about the Co-op! Keep up the great work. Can't wait to see Murphy's new home.

I miss this old school vlog style video. Love the content. Should do a video of where it started to where it is now after the store expansion. Kind of like a compilation and over view thing. Amazing work from everybody in the team.

Love the tour of the warehouse and store expansion!

LOVE the old school style video. It was this style of your videos that got me into the hobby. Love what your doing. Keep it up.

Excellent informative video. Nice to see the internal workings of aquarium coop. Very interesting. Thank you Cory

I love this video. It’s really exciting seeing behind the scenes. I’m really happy for you Cory. Happiest of New Year to you your family and crew. Thanks for including all of us.

Theses videos rock! You are the voice of my fish room, always in the background while I putter around.

I've watched this whole vid and genuinely appreciate how much you care about your whole business and your quality over quantity approach. I wish I could care about any of the products you're talking about and I would probably care a lot except I live in Australia and since you guys aren't shipping here at this stage it's hard to get hyped, honestly a little jealous of those people in the USA who get access to your store online and in person. I will say I think you've had a positive effect on aquarium stores over here in Australia from what I've seen, you've really set a standard and through your popularity challenged other stores to meet it, I keep seeing more Aquarium stores pop up with a familiar set up to them and it's really refreshing!

All the videos are great . An update on how things are going is always nice .

What a lovely view from outside your fishroom!

WHY IS THIS DUDE SO NICE ?!?

Great video! I was surprised since this is what I would have categorized as a "members only" behind the scenes video. Love seeing the first stage of the extension and the new super tank for Murphy!

That was a fantastic insight you gave us and I enjoyed seeing the warehouse and behind the scenes. Thanks for taking the time to create the video. :)

Awesome video! I have always loved the longer format. and older style videos. I seem to learn so much more. And are more comforting to listen to. Easy listening. also more personal.

Part of the Aquarium Co Op charm is the fact you pour everything into your current location & operation!!! I don't think multiple locations is the way to go.

Awesome! I’m just getting ready to go back home today after a 5 day vacation. I hope my fishes and shrimps are all good and healthy, I’m sure they will be. Thanks for all the help Cory!

Update: all of my fishies and shrimp are great! No fatalities. In fact, I had an explosion of shrimplets in my blue dream tank. Seems like they were happy with the privacy!

Awesome video! I like this return to the old vlog style. The pothos in your fishroom looks rad! Y'all did a really nice job attaching all those vines. I wasn't sure about it in the last video, but as always Dean knows best 😂

I love how calm ladybird is with all those fish just swimming around her while you’re talking about the meds! She isn’t phased one bit

Thank for the video Cory! I really like the vlog style videos. It helps understand all you folks have to go through and helps remind us why to be patient. Happy New Year! 🎊🙏🏽💗

Thanks for the update! Here's to a wonderful 2022! Cheers, Chris

I really enjoy your return to the daily dose vlog. Thank you

Love the long video, perfect for when I’m opening up the shop for the day

Love these long form videos. Thanks for the update Cory.

Excellent. Can't wait to see more!

Please do more vlogs as the store expansion continues. Enjoyed this.

Love the updates. Your channel is so awesome and educational

I love all this detail … here in Australia with water up to my elbows, I am always listening, watching, learning. Happy New Year and wishing you all the best for 2022 💃🏼💃🏼💃🏼

Thank you Cory! These blog style videos are great. I always look forward to Co-Op videos and they usually come with great product advice - after I’ve placed an order lol. Appreciate you taking the time out of your busy schedule to do these for us 💚

That beautiful Mountain View should become an Aquarium Co-Op Christmas Card background :)

I really like these types of vids! Great update, thanks. Waiting on my latest Aquarium CoOp order now.

Great to see Three Fingers and Whitehorse again after living East Coast for a while :) love this style of video

Amazing update and thank you for all that you have done and still do for the hobby you have been an inspiration around the world Cory you inspired me to start a KZread channel wish I could grow like you one of these days

These behind the scenes / recap videos are my favorite. Cheers to a successful and healthy 2022 for everyone at the Coop!

Yes!! A Cory vlog!!!

Love this style of video, I just turn it on and enjoy while doing other stuff

Great video as always. I’m very excited for the new products.

Amazing!!! So excited!

I really enjoy these kinds of videos!!

Absolutely love this video, touched on so many things! Thanks for sharing!

I have to say your products are hands down the most well packed I've ever seen. Your customer service is fantastic, too. Thank you!

I love love these older vlog videos.

Thank you for being you! I have an order in route now brine shrimp eggs to feed my rocket Killi fish ( got because of your video) some day when my fish room grows more I’ll get the hatchery you sell. Right now doing a home made hatchery it’s doing a good job but I think it will do better with your eggs,you haven’t let me down yet nor do I expect ever!

So glad that Joel is working on the new store remodel. You do an amazing job of creating a talented family of employees. So great!

Thanks Cory! I totally enjoyed the video! Congratulations on all the great things going on! Looking forward to seeing what the new year brings for the Co-Op!🥳

Love seeing the progress with the expansion and the behind the scenes look at the packing process. 👍❤👍

I really enjoy these updates 🌿

The style don’t know what you’re doing different much more relaxing and laid-back

Great behind the scenes footage . Thanks for sharing

I love these kinds of videos!!!

👍😎 Yes I do like this style. Also miss Cory sitting in front of the 800. Excited to follow along with the expansion. Been a fan sense the cinder block fish room, come a long way. 🖖

These are our favorite kind of videos!
