Video Of My Tanks!

I haven't posted much on the tanks themselves in terms of pictures and videos always show off the beauty better then a picture in my opinion anyways.. so being new to YouTube I thought what better way to show my tanks then a video! I apologize ahead of time, as silly as it sounds I'm very camera awkward. But I hope you enjoy!

 

Very nice! Subbed.

Thanks! First video but I'm into it so I'm going to try and keep up on the uploads. I realize the end of my video got a little lazy with the tank description so I plan to do another of my 9 gallon with my wild and better detail. Stay tuned!

 

Wow! You should make videos like foo the flowerhorn. You should try that.

 

If I can give you some feedback... I'm just getting started on YouTube myself, so I'm by no means an expert, but there are a few things I learned after my first few videos.

#1: although I enjoyed that video and looking at your tanks, the video was nearly a half hour long. My first video was that long too. When I started looking at the analytics, I realized the vast majority of people were clicking away within the first 5. People don't want to sit through a long video like that.

#2: Don't be afraid to edit yourself, or to cut out segments of dialogue or dead air. I've lately gotten to the point where I'm editing entire sentences together instead of using the sentence I said when filming.

#3: Find a YouTube group on social media somewhere. There's a few good aquarium YouTuber groups on Google+ that will help you promote your page and gain more subs. I can give you a reference to the group I use if you'd like, but I think you have to keep African cichlids to join.

 

If I can give you some feedback...

Yeah I also noticed my description of the tanks and the set up deteriorated towards the end because I was a little long winded and couldn't keep a solid train of thought with everything I was talking about. I've never messed with editing as this was all done from my phone, I do not have a computer I can use for the process yet, I moved it to make room for my tanks and never set it back up. Any groups you can recommend would be appreciated, I don't mind one bit and I rather like showing off my tanks.. haha
